12 point lead down to 2 in the blink of an eye.

how did the Bucks not use Craig?!

Bridges does not look like a good defensive player today. He can’t keep up with Irving or Durant.

Atrocious end to the half.

And ANOTHER game by Bridges where he is a total no show on both sides of the ball.

Kyrie could go for 50 today.

they weren’t great, but part of that is because he’s not getting the position he can. We just don’t seem to have those problems feeding Book, Dario or even Frank on the post like we do DeAndre.

that’s not to say I’m unhappy with him today. He’s playing well. It’s just little things that still irk me sometimes.

Again, agreed. He needs to put his body on his man, instead of just standing there, to make it easier to get the entry pass to him.

very few do against Kyrie. It’s the total no show on the other end of the court that’s a killer when he also brings nothing to the table on D like he is today.

Irving killed the Suns with 24 points in first half.

The Nets are going to fascinating in the playoffs. You can score on them all day long but trying to stop them is damn near impossible. You get the sense no matter how down they are there just a run away

Sounds familiar. We didn't have the equivalent offensive star power tho

So was he a good acquisition or not? You say JJ praise is sickening and you think he's awful but he's built a damn good team in the 2 years he's been charge.

Yes, that was a good move. The saric cam Johnson trade was also. Crowder was a good signing.

that’s about it though.

He doesn’t get credit for Payne - that was Monty.

he doesn’t get credit for Paul, he gave up a pick, when Paul really had no other options.

oubre was total luck, and not even the player he wanted.

baynes trade was awful, stix pick over Halliburton is beyond bad. Melton trade was bad. Warren trade was horrible.

You could say he has been ok at best, you can’t say he has been good.

Shot by Bridges was way off.

He's probably the favorite for Executive of The Year award.

Beautiful pass by Paul to Ayton for 2.
