They're in better shape with a promising future than several other times, I would agree there.

Just 5 yrs ago this was a 21 win team with no draft picks and no future. GM sean marks I think did the best rebuild and set the culture. Players are now wanting to play to brooklyn.

Now the harden rumors have a bomb

To me, it's an unwise move. I feel the Nets are good as is with the two stars, and they have depth.

Adding bruce brown, landry shammet i think somewhat address their need of perimeter def(brown) and another off ball sniper specialist.

I do think as constructed, this roster can make noise and be a contender. But if a MVP caliber type of player is available and is demanding to be traded to your team, you try to make a move for him. Thats their best chance to build a dynasty. Either way nets are looking good, and I still cant believe it.

"Scary Hours" as what harden would say. The Big 3 will debut today against the cavs with the fro and TP, which is weird to look at. My guess their roles would be different but one thing is for sure that this is KD's team and everybody knows that he's back, looking like the mvp KD. Harden would be the pg, Kai I think would be the sg ala AI role, then you have KD being KD himself. Joey Buckets would feast this season for sure, currently shooting 51% from 3. And GM sean marks still has a 3 open spots to fill an improve(FA and buyout market).

Weve come a looong waay as nets fans. We have endured the 12-70 season, the williamses, the dwightmare, arguably the laughingstock of the league, the little brother etc. Before our biggest offseason acquisition in teams history was travis oulol, then Jeremy lin, and starting andrea bargnani(the dirk lite). Now having 2 top 5 MVP caliber players and another top 10-15 assasin. Scary Hours indeed :100: :100: :fire: :fire:

Sexton ruined the party, but the trio did put up numbers.

It'll be scary for them if they don't improve defensively. I saw a lot of 'matador D' during last night's game vs Cleveland. And teams with size will punish them inside (see what Embiid's doing).
