He's honestly underrated. Not just a “draymond” triple double either with like 12/11/11... fucking 32 combined ast rebounds. Beastbrook
Supersonics fans: He's honestly underrated. . This is not a triple-double of around 12+11+11 like chasing dreams... This is a triple-double with 32 assists and rebounds in total. Mighty Brooke.

Russ actually hustlin off-ball with good defense and rebounds, and keeping on feeding PG's hot hand. Good shit.
Russ actually hustlin off-ball with good defense and rebounds, and keeping on feeding PG's hot hand. Active, and kept feeding him the ball when Pickled Pepper felt explosive. A cocky pussy.

There has to be a real conversation about Russ’ ridiculous defensive improvement.
Westbrook fans: We really need to have a real conversation about Russ’s huge improvement on the defensive end.
[–]Thunder BrotherSeamus 34 points 7 hours ago
He's always been a good defender -- he was the best athlete in the league for several seasons. The difference now is that he doesn't have to carry 100% of the offense and can conserve energy for the other end.
Thunder fans: His defense has always been very good. He has been the most explosive player in the league in recent seasons. The difference is that now he doesn't have to take over 100% of the team's offense, so he has the energy to take care of the defense.
[–]Thunder line_6 18 points 7 hours ago
Overall improvement. He has played off ball on offense like crazy this year. He trusts the hell out of Schroeder and he seems to have bought into Donovan's scheme.
Thunder fans: He overall Progress has been made. He has been very good off the ball this season. He really trusts Schroeder, and he seems to like Donovan's tactical arrangements.

Is it the biggest choke of season so far? Can't think of another one this bad. PG alone outscored the Nets by like 6 in the 4th
Lakers fans: This is the season so far The most wasteful failure? I can't think of anything worse than this. Pickle scored about 6 points more than the Nets in the fourth quarter.

I was looking at the scores on my phone and was like no way the nets lose this one. I checked with 5 minutes left and was like, the nets are only up 11. Check now and holy shit being a nets fan must be worse than getting kicked in the nuts.
Warriors fan: I looked at the score on my phone and felt that the Nets would definitely not lose. Then another look with 5 minutes left in the game showed the Nets only leading by 11 points. Then look again, holy shit, being an online honey must be more painful than having someone kick your balls.
[–]Raptors takeyababynoharambe 109 points 7 hours ago
In the 3rd when it was a 20 point lead and I saw all of you guys in the thread saying you'd still lose. I thought to myself "nah it's the 3rd quarter, these Nets arent' the 12-70 Nets, they're good now, they'll be fine, they just have some ptsd from those bad years"
From now on I'm trusting the fanbases who actually watch their team.
Raptors fans: When the Nets led by 20 points in the third quarter, I saw all you netizens talking about you in that post You will still lose. I thought to myself at the time, "No way, this is already the third quarter. This Nets are not the bad team that was 12-70 back then. They are very good now. These netizens will get better, but The rookie performances in the past seasons have just left a legacy for them. "
Now I understand that I will trust the fans who really watch the home team's games.
[–]Nets NetsBetsSets 57 points 7 hours ago
For fun, people should look through that thread and see what Nets fans were saying when we were up 20. We were incredibly confident we would lose.
Nets fans: It's fun, Everyone should read that post and see what our netizens said when we were 20 points ahead. We were extremely confident that the team would lose.

I watched every game of the Nets' 12 win season in 2009. Forgive me for not being optimistic about "long term gain"

Can the PG not being clutch thing die now?

BALL GAME, NO OT TONIGHT. FUUUUCCCCK YES PG FINALLY GOT HIS GATORADE MOMENT
One hit, no overtime tonight, so damn right! Pickle finally has his personal Gatorade moment! (George made the buzzer-beating shot in a Gatorade commercial and said "NO OT TONIGHT" and "BALL GAME.")

[–][OKC] Andre Roberson Midichlorian_counter 35 points 7 hours ago
One of the more subtle elements of the end of this game was Billy Donovan's decision to bench Adams to provide some versatility. Bold decision that worked out.
Robertson Fans: The Game One subtle factor in the final stretch was Donovan's decision to bring Adams off the bench, which provided the team with some diversity. It was a bold decision, and it worked.
[–]Thunder fellenst 18 points 6 hours ago
Very smart move. Adams was getting torched off switches, so going super small with Grant at the 5 let us really switch everything. Paid off for sure.
Thunder fans: Donovan’s decision Very smart. Adams is exhausted when switching defenses, so moving Grant to the 5th position to play five small positions will allow us to truly switch defenses. The effect has also been achieved.
[–]Thunder baldful 14 points 7 hours ago
cant believe we won. i say mvp to me since i turned off the game at the half and went to go eat. yay me
Thunder fans: I can’t believe we won. I think I was the MVP because I turned off the TV at halftime and went to eat.
