As a nets fan, very happy to see bruce brown and jeff green still on the floor in last 5 minutes because they suck lol
Anybody seen benimen (no “J”) Simmons? I’m just a Philadelphian looking for answers
I kept seeing Brooklyn Bridges hate comments like "of course his stats would go up because he's a primary option now" like bruh at least he ain't putting up empty stats like Devin Bitch-ass Booker
Bridges has been putting up all star numbers since coming in Brooklyn and get over 20% usage. Definitely a future star
Seth has to be better
Nets did their best to lose this game.
How do you like that shit!?? NETS BABY!!
Can't wait for tomorrow to hear Skip take on the phoney MVP
Damn Nets 😂😂😂😂
BROOKLYN 🔥 🔥 🔥
More exploits of the overrated Jokic. Waiting on the excuses about why they lost. Here it comes… "Oh, he doesn't have help. " Yeah, can't beat Brooklyn, without KD and Kyrie, because you ain't got enough help? Well, congrats on your 3rd MVP in a row. The MVP is now becoming a mockery.
Almost an L to the Nets because of Dinwiddie. He's good but he's not a superstar to play hero ball at the end. Fast break in late 4th (8:48 video timer) where he could've pass the ball to Cam and he force to shoot it to get a foul and ended up turning the ball over.
Inna slump🤦🏾♂️
If you foolishly and I mean it, think jokic is a good defender you don’t even need to watch the game just watch these highlights and don’t just look at his stats and advanced stats. Nugget fan or not there’s no way you can convince yourself inless you literally don’t watch the game but scroll down all the advanced stats and say that jokic is even a decent defender. It’s like if one “analyst” says it everyone who watches their video and likes the player will start to believe it themselves on saying not just jokic but other players are good at certain things when your eyes can show you their not. And that doesn’t mean he’s not gonna be an MVP, so don’t just say Jokic is okay or good defender just because other people use that to discredit him as an MVP. He’s having an extraordinary szn. The only player doing something that hasn’t been done before especially at being a center.
I’m not even a nets fan but if lakers don’t make it to playoffs I hope the nets win it. Just because KD left😂. It will be golden state scenario all over again.
Denver needs some more defenders
And just like that Ben Simmons ruined his career 😮
Jamal Murray my idol
Yes!!!! My nets are back with the complainers gone
im starting to see this nets as a dangerous team. They already coping up the rotation and chemistry. They will be a problem in the future.
Dang they put Ben Simmons under the bench!! No 🔥
WOW 😳 SUPER Good game!! Netta
35/11/20…
if jokic win another MVP this season, I am uninstalling NBA😂
35 20 11 triple double and still lost
This nets team isn’t underrated. Jokic is the man though, hope CB gets more minutes. Let’s get it, together. The nuggets will be a force in the playoffs!!! Fuck it!!! On to the next one…
Can we play Yuta?
Brooklyn finally has a team that plays D
They tried to cheat my nets the whole game
attitude of murray is the only reason for denver not going to finals
Nets clearly didn't want to lose. Great game. Happy for Jokic even if they lost the game. Dude is doing it all, leaving everything on the court every game.
