So Petey ... are they for real?
You said this game was the tell!
They are for real. No doubt about that! We measure well against the best in the East. But we're a long way from being there. Our bench sucked today. We got nothing significant from them. We cannot rely on JT to drop 54 like today. It's games like today where you MUST have solid bench production. It's going to be interesting seeing who Ime can integrate into the rotation to contribute. I guess we'll have to wait for a weaker opponent to see Stauskus's impact.

Not to be overlooked, JB played a hell of a game himself! JB's D often gets overlooked...not to mention his gritty offense...

Svelte Big Baby looks fat fit as a fiddle.... just like he played.... right at 289 lbs (+/- just a few lbs maybe).

The voice of Celtic's heart/soul, aka... its emotional leader...
And note how complimentary Smart is of JT's growth as a player.
(Be sure to back the video tape up to the beginning in case it tries to starts at the 4 minute mark.)
It appears that IUD has successfully appealed to and enlisted Smart's "better angels"... and the rest is history.

I can't see Kyrie flourishing with Simmons. SImmions imo has to distribute the ball, Kyrie needs to play off the ball. I do not see that working out well for Kyrie.

Kyrie will make sure he shoots more than durant. Always does. I always pay attention to the nets boxscore and kyrie the majority of the time shoots more than kd. He will never get that he is the second option.

You take the ball out of Kyrie and Durant's hands and they are easier to defend. Simmons man does NOT have to be close on the perimeter. I think Durant has LONG regretted his move to Brooklyn and teaming with Kyrie specifically.

KD has lost a little speed and I see him quickly turning into Rashard Lewis.
Catch and shoot player strictly.
His best days are over.
Not taking it to the basket as effectively. That's why Ime keeps playing him with size, daring him to drive

Irving played off the ball mostly yesterday Durrant brought the ball up and played point forward.
Simmons will assume Harden's old role as PG don't see a big adjustment for the Nets
The plus ? Simmons plays very good D and can guard mutable positions.
What worries me? Rob or Horford goes down from playing too many minutes.Both will need rest before the playoffs.
We seen how Grant and Theiss faired against a decent team yesterday.. Not well

I would think Simmons makes the Nets odds on favorites to win it all!
