The Nets are fun to watch.  They really compete.

They remind me of the Celtics with IT. They've handled their rebuild similarly, too
I'm bitter.

Simmons is most overhyped player in league

If Embiid is basically going to play on a minutes restriction for most of this series (less than 30 minutes), the Nets may actually have a chance to pull off the first round upset.

If 76ers lose in 1st round, i think Brett Brown will be a goner

The two most glaring issues for the Sixers:

1. When Reddick isn't shooting well, he's a pure liability on the floor

2. Simmons being limited outside the paint pretty much makes it 4-on-5 for PHI against other great teams, especially late in close games

Without Embiid for large stretches, the Sixers look lost and get even more exposed.

The Simmons thing is the most interesting. He can get a max rookie extension this offseason, but its becoming obvious he's a big liability in the playoffs.

The 76ers are so dumb as a team.  Nets have Dudley playing Embiid and they don't even give him the Embiid the ball....terrible recognition.  smh

As much as I would love that, I think I would prefer a 7 game series with Nets blowing out the 76ers in game 7 in Philly.  That way it gives smart more time to get better.

I don't know if BKN can win the series but so far I am loving it... I hate teams and players run their mouths without having done something to back it up.

BTW BKN deserve a lot of credit. They turned the ship around vert very fast
