Harden with 11pts on 3/17 shooting. He must have seen those Nets uniforms and got confused thinking he was still trying to play his way out of Brooklyn 😂
I think it was a combination of the 3! Getting Simon's good,getting Drummond great,getting Curry cherry on top,n made it just as valuable as if they had gotten back an, Allen,Prince,n Levert. Cause that's what Harden cost the Nets. So to get that back in my opinion makes them still a super threat even if they have to play in,n if everyone can stay healthy.But that's why I think all three togethere n not just Curry. But love that Curry was included,its like buying 3 tires n getting 3 free. Defense! Vetriancy,n I Q.! Plus already know how to play team ball with an alpha player,n vice versa. The fact two of them can create n score on their own,n the other is free to score at will n get put backs n dish out assist,n really doesn't need to score,so those are extra points. So looking deeper,that's why I said the combination. But yes definitely feel what you saying in general n not disagreeing with you for real. Just looking at what we needed after James would be gone,as far as what we got,n we definitely needed all three of them. N yes when I seen Curry was part of the deal,I was more than ecstatic then when James came to BN. Now if they can just stay healthy!!!! Go Nets!!!
@@wereallyrollin6680 why are people hoping and wishing Brooklyn won't make the playoffs? So instead of wishing for some good playoff match-ups, you're hoping your favorite team can get to the finals easier
James Harden usually choke one game per series, usually the most important games. Ben Simmons choked 3 games in a row in that Atlanta series. Everybody would make the trade in a heartbeat.
@@markarmage3776 if it was Harden-Ben straight up but they gave up the best shooter to ever be a sizzler in Seth, Big penguin and 2 first rounders for a chock artist.
@@amadoumaiga8503 Seth is good, not great. His average numbers proves it all. Tonight is an anomaly, not going to happen often. It didn't happen most nights already.
Imagine paying those astronomical prices ($300 - $4000) to troll Simmons only to get blown out by the Nets...anyone that thought Embiid/Harden is the best duo in the NBA got a serious reality check yesterday!
I have to admit that the Beatdowm from the Brooklyn Nets caught me off Guard but James Harden is Notorious for Choking so should have seen it coming …. 🤷🏿♂️. 🏀
It’s like these guys wait to get traded to play at their full potential 😂 Seth literally missed every bucket on the game before he got traded now he wants to play like an MVP come on MAN
Hard work beats talent. When Talent fails too work hard ! In my Kevin Durant voice 😘 "MY 7'0 Foot Tall ..Milk Chocolate Handsome ...Fine..Sexy 🥰...Smart 🤗..."SUPERSTAR🤩!"
It's crazy how Harden surpassed Reggie Miller on the all time 3 point record and how he had a 36ppg season, the first 60 point triple double and the most 50 point triple doubles yet no one cares. He quits and leaves. He did this to himself. He needs to show up when it matters most. Not just once but he needs to do it multiple times to save his legacy and that's a fact.
@@BaithNa not really when the Nets face against a good team like the Heat they're beatable Nets with KD lost to the Heat with Butler, Lowry, & Oladipo missing 😴
@@JoeSmithGOAT *Heat without Butler, Tucker and Lowry. Oladipo is a non-factor. With that being said, Simmons will defend Adebayo which is the main scoring threat out of them anyway
that was a playoff atmosphere last night, it was beautiful.... but my boys came out on top without KD having to score 30+ and seth was a great complimentary pick up. Now let's get ben back and see what it's really lookin like with brooklyn !
I'm kinda starting to think that the nets purposely fell down the ranks in order for them to have the availability of Kyrie lol😏.....1st 2 games of the series away is a win win lol....after all...they play extremely better away..smart
@@DanielTorres-pw8il Put them both in your back court and it would be a horror movie seeing both together shoot 6-50. That even scary to even think about.
That playoff game against the spurs In Houston with no Tony Parker or kawhi will live forever. Last night wasn’t even high stakes & james came up short
Can we talk about the Nets defense last night?! UNBELIEVABLE DEFENSE. I doubt we’ll get that consistently, but come to the playoffs, you best believe we’re gonna see something similar to that. Nets offense and chemistry was incredible, but their defense is what’s the most surprising part. Feels good maneee…
Notorious Choke Artists & their Monikers - Chris Paul - CP Injury Paul George - Playoff P Demar DeRozan - DeFrozen James Harden needs to be known as James Soften going forward …… 🤷🏿♂️. 🏀
@@constablekennedy7705 You would have thought according to 2 weeks ago that Rozan was the 2nd coming of MJ, and yet another season like clockwork these players become what they were in the playoffs. It never changes in this era of the NBA because these younger fans don't get it lol. They may have one good game in a playoff series, but as has happened the last 10 years these players cannot mentally handle playoff basketball and play terribly.
When Philly took that boy away from us I said are these guys really giving these young prime players for a 33 year old who has chronic injuries and folds in the deep playoffs? They gonna give a max contract to that? Smh if Philly has any sense they let harden go in free agency .he is not worth a huge mega contract and he only getting older
Tbh, I'm a die hard rockets fan... always have been...with my age, I barely missed the championship years. So my favorite player was always tmac when he was healthy. I'm so glad that harden isn't on our team anymore....yea, he's a great player, but like they said, when the pressure is on ...he just disappears. I absolutely love the rookies we have now and also glad we were able to speed it up faster than most other teams. No more harden drama for us!
I think 76ers will bounce back they looked confused on defense nets just had too many snipers ready to shoot sixers need more Defense because ain’t nobody stopping kD and Kyrie
Word you can’t stop Kevin and Durant🤣 neither can you stop Kyrie and all those role players. Philly made the worst trade in history. Without Seth and Drummond, we might have lost.
Skip everytime keep telling u so much watch nets or Grizzlies etc when ever his favorite player has good game he starts off like he knew it would happen
I feel like Seth Curry should have been talked about more here. I hate that all of the sport shows talk about all the exact same things. Either its my bum a** Lakers, or Brooklyn & the 76ers. How about the Heat are #1 in the East, without a traditional "Superstar." The Cavs are #6 without a "Star" just playing their hearts out on both ends of the floor. DeMar is doing a phenomenal job in Chicago, probably the best Bulls play since Jordan & Pipen (you could argue Rose). Ja Morant is in his 3rd season, and is #2 in the West. In a conference with Devin Booker, Christ Paul, The Splash Bros., LeBron James, Donovan Mitchell, Jokic, & Luca Doncic. How about more Giannis? KD is the best in the league currently, but Giannis is champion right now. Now I get this one in particular because it was a big game. But can we get more than the same 2 or three teams?
I just wanna see Philly get their *bad karma* for intentionally tanking for a decade when LeBron was still dominating the East. They acquired tons of top picks and first round picks only to blew it every single time.
as much as i hate players flopping , james was flopping too much for me to like. there definitely was missed foul calls tho, i think his exaggeration is why he doesn’t get some of them. as a sixers fan the whole team played bad, but joel was doing everything he could to keep us in there, the nets wanted it more than we did. can’t wait to see nets in the playoffs
The fouls calls need to slow down on Embiid I think. The rest of the league are not greeting all those calls. For sure the Jokic does not. It's really hard to watch. Either Embiid goes to the free throw line or Hraden.
Imagine a parallel universe and skip is a NBA Player. His Trash Talk alone would 3peat. It would be deadly. When you hear that "Ok, my turn" you know its over
We put on a defensive masterpiece last night. The disrespect the Nets get is mind blowing to me!!!! Bruce Brown is currently in the starting lineup up right now. He is 6’4 playing at the SF/PF POSITION!!!! If you pay attention to his game offensively he gets a lot of looks around the rim. He’s makes a lot of good cuts that lead to easy layups, and he’s a really good defender. Well guess who will be filling in his position. BEN SIMMONS who is surprisingly UNDERRATED. I mean the brother is the same height as KD😅… We will definitely give a lot of teams problems defensively. It will be A LOT harder for teams to score in the paint.
Are we really surprised that Hardem didn't show up? 🤔 He literally folds under pressure in big games unfortunately that is what he is known for. He's a good player just can't get it done when it matters most!
Kind of worried as a Sixers fan. This game really showed our holes. No depth and 1 dimensional playmaking and shot selection. When something doesn't work early on in a game, the Sixers can't seem to get out of it and they play catch-up. These slow starts take a lot out of the team. They had these slow starts against the Cavs and even the Knicks recently, with Harden. I think the team has to work on their game plan approaches so they can adjust how to attack throughout the game depending on the team they're playing against
Personally I do think it's good that they did good cuz we saw what potential that this team truly has since everyone did their due diligence but at the same time the 76ers was not playing good so I don't really see this as a good scale of what this match-up truly looks like in the future
James Harden just didn’t understand that KD and Kyrie covered up his offensive short comings perfectly. He’s a 2 level scorer who if he’s not getting to the line or getting the 3 to fall then he’s a passing guard with a high turnover rate. Meanwhile KD and Kyrie are 3 level scorers, who if they are cold from 3 or aren’t getting calls while attacking the paint they will cover that up by burning you up at the mid range game. There’s no one on Philly to do that for him. Also Drummond and Claxton did a great job on Embid, Embid did not send Drummond flying, he stepped on his ankle which made him go down hurt. Oh and he’s definitely gotta be 300lbs now he looks huge.
Skip always brings down Harden's failures against Golden State, but Skip, WHO WON THOSE MATCHES FOR THE WARRIORS? It was Steeeeeph. Especially in 2015 and 2019 with no Durant or Durant out due to injury. Give love to Steph.
Lets just keep overshadowing the BUCKS like they dont exist. All these IF if ifs. The se could be same for the bucks If the bucks get brook back and he can be somewhat what he was, the bucks are deep
They don’t even need offense from Simmons. All they need is his defense and athleticism and his play making. KD and Kyrie locked in and few bench points. But still my Bucks are the best team. Bucks in 6
BS10 wasn't even playing... wait until he do play. Net's get the defense and the slick passing addition. BS10 is not garbage... he just gotta turn his mental on ... by the rim attack it.
Harden Not taking care of himself turned into Ray Allen on the Heat.. He isn’t a Star anymore. Harden should just Join the Warriors or Bucks to get a ring.
Philly trading Seth Curry to the Nets is gonna bite them come playoffs time cause the 76ers basically have no bench at this point. Philly fans better be ready for playoff Harden lol
KD and Kyrie are perfect team mates for Ben because they also have been dragged by the media and the fans and have chips on their shoulders for it. The 3 will be galvanised with an "us against the world" mentality.
People saying Harden doesn't show up in big games but this wasn't a big game for the 76ers as they are comfortable going into the playoffs. Thos was a bog game for the Nets probably. They needed thos win. Go Brooklyn!!
