You say that now... but we did beat y’all 3-1 during the season.
The Nets need to continue developing their young players and maybe add a Julius Randle who would compliment them. Once you add stars the dynamic changes. At least the Nets have a potential star with Russell and possibly LeVert. The Clippers don’t have that so they definitely need to upgrade somewhere in the off-season.
Uhhh I don't agree only because of the TYPE of players they have
This is comparable to miami also
Clippers/Nets/Miami all promote a hard working culture that has been organic in each young core's upbringing and development
The only team I think maybe this kinda doesn't apply to is the Clippers because it's moreso montrezl and pat and temple busting their ass and infusing toughness and energy. But those guys will always be like that so they imprint on the team as emotional leaders
Gallo is ehhh also
But for nets/miami you could plug a star in there and for sure it would be the same because of the player development. Clippers are a bit lower as far as that but I think it still applies
Listen I don't remember none of that shit lol
I was in middle school I was going through puberty
Btw jams I was reading some net fans comments about Brooklyn and I know it's not realistic but I think the nets should move back to Jersey and specifically Newark not the trash meadowlands

I agree with this but also dont get me wrong, if you can get two stars, you say fuck the culture and take the stars and adjust the game plan and culture for them.
That ain’t never happening. The NBA will never return to NJ. I wish though.

I still disagree.
Miami is an outlier. The only example Miami had is the Lebron years and Miami had Pat Riley and a star in Wade. Bron went there specifically to learn to win.
The current hard working culture of Miami never had a star join them. So we gonna have to see.
But this offseason is a bit different cause these teams potentially will have 2 stars joining them. I think it will matter on who the stars are. If you get them weirdo motherfuckers like Kawhi and Klay, I think the hard working scrappy culture remains intact. Ill even throw Kemba in there. If you get a combo of KD, Kyrie and Butler, no team culture will remain intact and the team will revolve around them.
Only because in Brooklyn Niggas just use the nets games to watch their fav team because the garden too expensive and thus you never have a strong fan base in the arena. Plus Brooklyn Fans aren't exactly organic
Plus Newark is booming right now
What y’all think about Kemba going to the Pacers?
What they got going for them are the young kids that are following the team now this will become super fans in a decade etc, plus the NJ holdovers like myself. But yeah there are definitely your share of fairweathers and hipsters hitting up the Barclays because it’s trendy.

Jersey aint supporting a basketball team man. Especially not in Newark.
Man I remember when I use to drive rich people from Bergen county to the airport as a youngin and they would tell me to never take route 21 and in convos tell me how they took the long way to work to avoid Paterson.
They aint going to no games in Newark.

I was gonna say it depends on the star too lol
You have a legit thought but honestly the only team I see you being right about is the Clippers
They have a few hard working players but not a culture to fall back on
I say this because the nets have legit fans and Newark is gentrifying at a high rate and the economy there is booming
I think it's a great spot now for a team to bring even MORE money

I wish a team would move to Newark and was really rooting for Newark to get the Amazon headquarters even though Raleigh NC was an option and would have been more benefical to me.
That Amazon move would have transformed the whole area and the money in brought it might have attracted a team.

Fuck that lol
BUT I would go there for a game, and downtown is getting a lot better to the point them crackas is coming through
I don't see how it would be a problem having the nets there
No more of that BS traffic at the meadowlands also until at least the giants and jets play.
