    It would be pretty impressive if he came back and they went on to win the series.

    Remember when people looked at the Raptors funny for taking Barnes instead of Suggs?

    What's crazy is that we could really use a player like Suggs. Our dribble penetration is just Siakam right now with FVV ailing. Ujiri and Webster had a ready-made guy at a position of need and nobody would've questioned the pick. They have brass balls.

    I understand Ja is a very special player and has impressed many but can he take a game over and will a win like Dame can?

    He is 22 years old. Not this year, but he certainly is better than Dame was at 22.

    Why did you think a 7 seed that barely made the playoffs would “cook” Boston? Nets are rotten to the core. All hype, no substance. I know KD was hurt but when they lost 11 straight, that is all you need to know. If you can’t win one of 11 games without your star player, you have no coaching or depth and will be eliminated from the playoffs quickly if you get there.

    Just like his Dame take, he doubles down on this ridiculous take.

    I’ve watched their games. I’ve seen Ja do it.

    WTF??? You can’t have some rando running on the court/field. What if they have some kinda of weapon or biological device? There is a time an place for protest, please do it legally and be respectful.

    What happened to KD the best player in the world? Looks like he needs more help. Funny how LMA and Griffin signed with the Nets just to win a ring.
