Nets

 

[Master Zik]

still mad that we didn't trade Lee or KOQ

There's always draft day and the off season.

Could still get some picks for them. Even if they're 2nd round.

HELL NAH

Saw that too, easy pass on DOC.

Doc > Jeff

Just don’t bring his bum *** son with him

You ain’t saying much

If the Knicks hire Doc ******* Rivers I am done. It's like they learn nothing from hiring guys like Larry Brown, D'Antoni, and Phil. Doc would KILL this team's development process. Most overrated coach in the NBA and it's not even close.

In on the ashy voice press conferences. That’s about it.

He a bum but he'd be the 2nd best player on this team behind KP

How are we so far behind the damn Bulls right now. They seem better than us.

How are we so far behind the damn Bulls right now. They seem better than us.

We have 24 wins and it's the first day of March. Most of the teams currently behind us won't even finish the season with 24. We're on pace for at least 30 even with how bad we've been. Need to really start tanking hard.

Mock drafts have us taking Mikal Bridges at 9 right now and I’m perfectly okay with that

King vs Nets tonight too

I mean one of these years we have got to get lucky with lottery position... right?

Though I guess in our own way we got incredibly lucky to stick at #4 in 2015. So lucky to dodge Okafor.

Mikal is nice. I'd be perfectly OK with us drafting him. Seems like a legitimate late bloomer who has a high level 3 and D guy floor (potentially a very good small-ball defensive minded 4 to pair with KP at the 5) and the potential to be the next in line of other late bloomers who weren't one-and-done players like Kawhi, Jimmy Butler, Dray, Oladipo, Donovan Mitchell, etc...

I'd really like for us to get into the top 7 though to at least have the option of picking whoever from the Doncic/Ayton/MPJ/Bamba/JJJ/Bagley/Trae group slips through the cracks, in addition to guys like the 2 Bridges and Sexton (as well as having increased lotto odds of getting in the top 3, of course).

I think somebody like Trae Young if Oklahoma misses the tourney, or MPJ if he doesn't come back from injury, could be franchise changing steals who would be the most likely candidates from that group to slip to 7th. I think getting by the Nets and Chicago is a perfectly realistic goal if we tank hard enough to close out the season.

 

[nick.]

I'd love to get to 7th cause of the 15% chance of moving into the top 3

That's what it's all about. We should have a 7 on the whiteboard at all times.

 

[floodarea]

The only other players on my radar outside of Mikal are Luka and Porter

Both are pipe dreams though

 

[nick.]

I'm cooling off on Miles Bridges a bit.

His athleticism gives him a higher ceiling than Mikal but I get some Marcus Morris vibes from him.
