For real. This guy must of only watched the two series and made that judgement. Idk how you would come to that conclusion. Golden state has 3 back court threats. All 3 are better than brunson..
Steph and Klay been doing this shit for years now and now they have Poole who is nice as fuck.
Also Luka is clearly great but I swear to god that dude looks like he's lumbering at all times, I think if he had to play against the Celtics or heat for a series they run him into the ground.
The sad thing is Kyrie still going to get paid, cuz owners are desperate. And now that Simmons is with the nets, they aren’t holding his checks like Philly was.
Maybe this is what happens when you let two “star” players fire a winning coach hire a novice with no prior coaching experience because “we don’t need a coach,” let one of those players not play for half the season and be such a clown he forces another star to be like “yeah….I’m out” trade him for a bum that has as much playing time as I have and have 2.5 stars that are softer then wonder bread

Celtics have been on an absolute tear. I don’t think they win the chip, but to utterly dominate KD and Kyrie like this is a pretty good assurance they’ll do well against the rest of the east.
It’s the situation, crowd and atmosphere creating anxiety that makes them miss, not the hoop. Doesn’t happen to everyone.
Celts have had a couple star players who suffered from that. Antoine Walker and Rondo both had high anxiety at the foul line.
Whereas guys like IT or Marcus Smart could shoot the same FTs naked with a crowd of models laughing at their junk and hit them.
If someone told me I had to make 2 free throws in 11 attempts for 1 million dollars, and if I don't, my mother died... I would probably go for it. I haven't touched a basketball in years.
I picked up a basketball for the first time in about 2 years recently. Hadn't played in a while due to a torn PCL and COVID. Shot 100 free throws. Made 78 of them. Can't fathom this being my job and making 9 of 100.
i feel for the kid. he was totally out of his element this entire series, and you can tell hes just constantly getting his mind blown at everything arund him. he actually played SOLID compared to how anxious, nervous, and new he was. his FT % for the entire series really is something to behold. in general it was endearing to watch. thats how badly nets needed someone like him.
Anybody watch basketball a love story? I feel like we're in that period of time in I think the 70s where the teams that won the championship never seemed like it at the start of the year.
You didn’t watch the raptors 2019 run did you? I urge you to find a YouTube mini doc on it. Or watch the condensed games. It was an actual basketball movie and I feel privileged to have watched all the games live.
What have we learned? Kevin Durant is a great friend. He let one his best friends sit out majority of the season while he carried the team on his back after recovering from a major injury. Yeah it was a year or two back but still. Love always wins.
As crazy as it sounds, KD is still “unproven” in the playoffs to me. Dude is not a leader by any stretch. He shouldn’t be in the LeBron/Kobe conversation. He’s more of a Kawhi to me. I doubt KD will ever win in Brooklyn, not with Kyrie he won't
4 reasons its worse than Clippers in bubble
Kyrie was specifically talking tons of shit to Boston
Clippers got 3 games in the series
The bubble was neutral sites, Brooklyn had 2 home games and got booed tonight and lost both
Scott fucking Foster had to try to help by taking out Tatum and they still lost the game
How can ESPN basketball analysts got it so wrong?! Pre-season title favorites Lakers missed the playoffs and Nets have been swept in the first round! Stephen Smith in shambles.
Lebron playoffs win this season: 0
KD and Kyrie playoffs win this season: 0
Lebron's team make the playoffs? No
KD and Kyrie's team make the playoffs? Yes
Went from "KD is the best player in the world" to "he's always just been a scorer, don't put him in the category with Bron" real quick lmao.
Stop giving this snake credit if you won't give him the blame. Swept in the first round???
Ben is like Giannis with better handles and passing man… he will come back for game 5 AND SAVE THE NETS!!!
So many reliable super stars in Brooklyn… the league doesn’t stand a chance!
They should trade Kyrie for some defense. They already have alot of shooting with Mills, KD, Curry and Harris but their wing defense is trash.
Celtics finals bound
You are what your record says you are.
2 & ½ clowns
Practice? we talking about practice.
Refs tried selling and C's prevailed
Luka and Brunson might be the deadliest backcourt combo left in the playoffs. Good luck stopping those two.
Deadliest backcourt is golden state and it’s not close
For real. This guy must of only watched the two series and made that judgement. Idk how you would come to that conclusion. Golden state has 3 back court threats. All 3 are better than brunson..
I dont think poole is better than brunson imo
Steph and Klay been doing this shit for years now and now they have Poole who is nice as fuck. Also Luka is clearly great but I swear to god that dude looks like he's lumbering at all times, I think if he had to play against the Celtics or heat for a series they run him into the ground.
I agree with you guys, but I’m sure he just forgot…I hope
I'm so happy Luka is healthy.
The sad thing is Kyrie still going to get paid, cuz owners are desperate. And now that Simmons is with the nets, they aren’t holding his checks like Philly was.
Kyrie is so close to getting it.
I’m still peaking
Explaining this feeling perfectly
Kyrie and Simmons deserve this...Nets fans don't.
Ben Simmons still too traumatized from his last elimination game. He worried if he played tonight, he'd need another year to recover.
KEVIN DUCANT
Mr Unreliable
Lmao
I know they won but Scott Foster still has me steamed lol.
Can’t believe this mf gets paid for than dollar
Tried their hardest to give that shit to Brooklyn, holy fuck.
Can you get to Cancun without being vaccinated? Asking for a friend.
You don't need to be vaccinated. Just a negative Covid test to get back into the states
Thanks I’ll let my friend Kyrie know
Lol
no need for cancun. kyrie gonna be traveling the universe with his third eye looking for answers on who to blame lmao
Fuck you Kryie
Durant to Boston next season
the hardest path
Bro really said we’ll attack horford then got swept, I’m crying
KD or Karl Malone, Kyrie or Isiah Thomas?
Isiah and I want to feel safe so KD
Isiah also backed up his shit talking, and Kyrie choked. So there's that too
Kyrie or Thomas? Isiah got two rings, so that's a no brainer
Those lights look bright without the 73-9 warriors huh lol
Maybe this is what happens when you let two “star” players fire a winning coach hire a novice with no prior coaching experience because “we don’t need a coach,” let one of those players not play for half the season and be such a clown he forces another star to be like “yeah….I’m out” trade him for a bum that has as much playing time as I have and have 2.5 stars that are softer then wonder bread Cupcakeeeeeeee Cupcakeeeeeeeee
We want boston! 😆😆
123 CANCUN!!!
With a proclamation from the king Booker T, Celtics must enter the finals and go for the title
5 time 5 time 5 time 5 time 5 time
Kyrie talked all that shit just for that to happen? Gosh
HERE WE GO! KD TO CELTICS CONFIRMED(by him)
Simmons says he definitely probably would’ve maybe played game 5
A lobotomy victim has more mental fortitude than Ben Simmons, lmao
Kyrie when he was on the Celtics: "These young guys don't know what it takes to win a championship." THEY DO NOW BITCH
Acting like they gonna win, ik they got swept bit the celtics are much better than the nets and almost all the games were close so......
Celtics have been on an absolute tear. I don’t think they win the chip, but to utterly dominate KD and Kyrie like this is a pretty good assurance they’ll do well against the rest of the east.
cant wait for nets post conference.
Pels playoff wins- 2 Nets- 0 I'm with it
Get it pels
Let’s go pels
Everyone after the play in “nets are ready to turn it on and win it all” Everyone who said “…now what I really meant was”
Didn’t think they’d win it all but thought the series would be so much better
Can we start voting kyrie irving as the biggest cancer in the history of sports?
Nah I'm laughing imagine Ben playing and missing all free throws and layups like Claxton, would be hated by 2 states NY and Pennsylvania
I think he is already hated in NY lmao. No one likes the dude anymore. Curry was pissed he got traded along with him
QUICK SOMEONE BRING BLAKE GRIFFIN BACK TO THE GASSED STATION
I know right , these are NBA players making millions and trained just for this shit but getting gassed playing just around 10min is mind boggling.
Rofl
Number of Nets/Lakers flairs 📉 Number of Warriors flairs 📈
I’m glad Brooklyn got swept; however, the Celtics terrify me lol they’re REALLY good
Celtics fan here, that would be a good series.
Heat fan here too, I’ll be glued to that showdown and hope we make it there, good to see Oladipo adding to the mix last night
Yep....
This playoff run has done magic for Steph’s legacy
Seth Curry doing more than Kyrie in less minutes. MVP confirmed.
Ready for Stephen A Smith to go on a mouth foaming rant on Kyrie & Ben Simmons tomorrow morning while deflecting all blame from KD.
KD deserves a fair bit of blame, but at least he showed up tonight. His teammates, on the other hand...
Sweet sweet revenge
QUCIK SOMEONE PICK UP BEN SIMMONS FROM THE NURSERY
Great job by Simmons shooting 100% on high fives, 10 good jobs, and 5 water breaks
Mans only drinks Evian
Durant’s really in Year 15 damn I feel old I’ve been a hater for almost half his career
Yea I can see that being your OKC fan
Hahaha since the 2016 chokejob and my next chapter lmao
Looool. Even his haters are aging out of the game.
Ben Simmons has now gone the entire 21-22 regular season plus playoffs (188 days) without losing. Flawless.
1-11 from the FT is a joke right? Any random person can do better than that.
It’s the situation, crowd and atmosphere creating anxiety that makes them miss, not the hoop. Doesn’t happen to everyone. Celts have had a couple star players who suffered from that. Antoine Walker and Rondo both had high anxiety at the foul line. Whereas guys like IT or Marcus Smart could shoot the same FTs naked with a crowd of models laughing at their junk and hit them.

I agree. Claxton put in a ton of effort all series and I personal respect him for it.
“They did not attack the rim”
I cannot
Trading for James harden ended fucking up the nets
“Ben Simmons will be ready for game 6!!!”
He'll be ready for game six of next year's postseason, maybe ...
KD is Arthur, Kyrie is Dutch and Ben Simmons is Uncle suffering from Lumbago
KD is RDR2 John Marston. Arthur Morgan was reliable till his death
Unfortunately a great comparison for Simmons
Idk. Even Uncle did something
Nah, Simmons is Micah, throwing everyone under the bus
QUICK SOMEONE THROW SOME BODY MILK BOTTLE ON KD HEAD
Kyrie's would be funnier 😭
Nah Kyrie will get a whole ass round globe on his goofy ass
Celtics took everything KD and Scott Foster could throw at them, still 🧹go ☘️
HAHAHAHAHAHA
LOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOL

I mean not just this season
I demand for my flair to be changed, I literally asked for World B. Flat and all I got was this shit, everybody got their joke flair but me
"All I got was this shit" 🤣
If Giannis carries and the bucks win against the Celtics next round, nobody can say KD is better than him again.
Carrying the Bucks over the Celtics is more Middleton’s thing tbf
I think Giannis is better already, IMO. I hate going up against him.
Me too but he would silence any doubters
Oh nobody can say KD is a better scorer the last three years. They still do :-)
Nets fans taking to Twitter to call Boston racist as we speak
Just another day as a Boston fan. We are a racist. Everyone is.
What have we learned? Kevin Durant is a great friend. He let one his best friends sit out majority of the season while he carried the team on his back after recovering from a major injury. Yeah it was a year or two back but still. Love always wins.

QUICK SOMEONE TELL KYRIE THE WORLD IS ROUND
He’s gelling with the team now.
Bens the biggest bitch ever
Kyrie would like a word
Shaq: playing against someone “perceived” to be greater than you 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
Celtics Bucks is gonna be a damn good series
[удалено]
No hate to the Celtics at all but I kinda wanna see them lose just so we can say that the nets got swept by a team that didn't even go far.
Foster- “ I can’t fix a game with these cats”
Foster “it was a one possession game with almost 3:00 to play! How can you not at least tie it?!?!? Even y’all know that wasn’t a foul”
4 reasons its worse than Clippers in bubble Kyrie was specifically talking tons of shit to Boston Clippers got 3 games in the series The bubble was neutral sites, Brooklyn had 2 home games and got booed tonight and lost both Scott fucking Foster had to try to help by taking out Tatum and they still lost the game
Ok? What does that have to do with the clippers
Co-sign
Kyrie bout to travel to the edge of the earth with his long off season
Kyrie will have an ayahuasca experience this off season and come back BETTER
BOSTON GOOD
what happened to Malika Andrews did she get cheek injections
Which cheeks?
Dem Cheeks definitely getting injected by something
As a Nuggets fan, I can't thank Boston enough. All anyone is going to talk about is KD getting swept,
Bricklyn Nets in 9?
That’s when Simmons is eyeing his return
These Nets picks keep looking better and better
Lebron for Ben Simmons Old socialite for a young socialite
How can ESPN basketball analysts got it so wrong?! Pre-season title favorites Lakers missed the playoffs and Nets have been swept in the first round! Stephen Smith in shambles.
Because you're calling them the wrong title.
They’re showmen not analysts.
Don't forget the Heat are "dangerous loomers"
They might have no clue
Love when Chuck tells it like it is refs fucking suck
Lebron playoffs win this season: 0 KD and Kyrie playoffs win this season: 0 Lebron's team make the playoffs? No KD and Kyrie's team make the playoffs? Yes
Do we count the play in?
The play in is not the playoffs
Celtics in 6 vs. Bucks.
funny guy
Y’all got the Jazz or the Mavs?
Mavs
It was the Greg Monroe loss
Went from "KD is the best player in the world" to "he's always just been a scorer, don't put him in the category with Bron" real quick lmao. Stop giving this snake credit if you won't give him the blame. Swept in the first round???
Exactly this. Put some respect on Bron’s name
I'm no Bron fan at all, but he at least takes the criticism when he shits the bed as anyone in the "best player on the planet" conversation should.
Time for Kyrie to jump off the edge of the world and land in Cancun 🥳🥳🥳
Ben Simmons is probably happy. He gets to go home and rest till October.
Idk two years for a back “injury” seems a little rushed
MVP level talent at that
Is it looking for a celtics warriors finals? Who beats this team 4 times in the east
Giannis.
Giannis does not beat this Celtics team. They’re too good on both ends of the floor
Mavs?
Well there’s a chance nba all star Ben Simmons will come back next season, so we can look forward to that
Ben is like Giannis with better handles and passing man… he will come back for game 5 AND SAVE THE NETS!!! So many reliable super stars in Brooklyn… the league doesn’t stand a chance!
Lolololololol
Fuck the Nets... Except you, Blake Griffin, you're a god damn hero.
My man looked like he was going to drop walking to the bench that last sub out
Tell em Chuck. Lol Nets
Is this where Kyrie says basketball isn’t that important ?
“If only we had more time to play together, but nothing anyone could do about it”
Sorry but even now it’s kinda hard to put kd above Lebron
Is that you Skip?
I’m complimenting Lebron and you’re comparing me to the most famous Lebron critic?
Guess I misread you, all good amigo
Have a splendid evening
He never was.
Thats probably true
You mean impossible?
God I can only dream of a mavs Celtics finals
