I hate to take the air out of Nets balloon BUT

[Knicksfever2010]

Before JR smith elbowed Jason Terry, the Knicks were on their way to EMBARASSING the Celtics and up until that point, kg+pierce were Horrible. KG played ALRIGHT the rest of the series, but as the Knicks were blowing the doors off the celtics for the 1st 3 games, everyone was saying how OLD AND DECREPID pierce and kg were.

Now everybody on ISH is getting a woody because the nets didnt give up any NBA talent for 2 aging hall of famers? If this was 2008- OK YEAH. But watch how Shumpert LOCKED DOWN Pierce in the playoffs to the point that pierce became a very-bad spot up shooter; could NOT EVEN dribble the ball anywhere near Shumpert.

Kg had his moments against a very weak Knicks front court that included a banged up Chandler.

Its funny when the Knicks gave up all those 1st round picks years ago, we were mocked and laughed at; but now the Nets give up 1st round picks till kingdom come and its not a big deal.

Best of luck Net fans, the Knicks are building from within and shumpert+hardaway JR is going to be a nice backcourt for the next 10 years.


And nope, I'm not mad, I'm actually elated that the Nets AARP team will be sucking wind while Shumpert, Melo and Hardaway JR is going APE SHIT !

You are not mad, then I cant tell whether there is even a mad man in this world at all. Also not to take the air out of Knicks balloon, but this statement above makes me laugh. Knicks fans are acting like Shumpert is a superstar player, and that a 24th pick from weak draft class will actually make any kind of guaranteed impact.
:lol

[BlackWhiteGreen]

This would be a legit argument if there weren't 2 or 3 players better than them.

[Haymaker]

The thing is, KG and Pierce will not have the offensive pressure they had in Boston. KG can concentrate in being the defensive anchor and rebounding and PP can spot up, play some point SF and take over in crunch time. No more long minutes for them. They also add much needed veteran-ship and maturity.

talk to me when you win a round in the playoffs. Kind of sad not being able to beat a team that was without their 3 best players. I wouldnt have the stones to show myself after my team lost to the bulls who were without Rose, Deng, Heinrich and an injured Noah.

Good luck with that

Talk to me when your team makes it to NBA Finals like we did twice in 2002-2003. Knicks fans talking about team success to other teams is just beyond laughing. Oh yeah, and apparently winning a playoffs series is such an unprecedented success for your shitty franchise.

I just said they were old and decrepid,they used to be great players but now they are old and ready for AARP. I'm sure they could still run the show at a pickup game in my neighborhood but for the NBA, they're going downhill quick. There was even talk about both pierce/kg retiring. And now the Nets are going to be world beaters? LOL

[Kiddlovesnets]

Nobody said the Nets were world beaters, you brought it up 'cause you were mad and scared. As a Nets fan I do not think we are taking down the Heat right away, but I am definitely confident when it comes down playing against the Knicks.

our key to taking down the heat is wade. we know bosh with fold with kg on him. if wade plays like 25 ppg wade, we could lose. if he plays like passive 15 ppg wade, we will win. i also think a bench of marshon, terry, plumlee and blatche need some major work. we need shooting on our bench like the heat. we have a semi-week bench right now.

Really in Boston there was no bigman of Lopez calibare or a SG of JJ. Overall I think this team has the pieces on boths sides of the ball to be good.

But.. but... Melo won the scoring title last year :(

[Real Men Wear Green]

The Nets are low on athleticism and that could lead to big problems vs. the Heat but I don't see how the Knicks beating the Cs in 6 gives Knicks a reason for confidence now that Pierce and KG are joining Williams (Cs didn't have Rondo), Lopez and JJ. Knicks have to hope that the weapons don't gel because they have five potential starters that can both shoot as well as create offense. If Pierce or KG were in their 20s they would be a serious threat to Miami.

if the above were reality, the nets would sweep the heat. :lol

right now we're realistically behind the heat. even my homer side can't say we're better than the heat right now. they are too fast for us and if one of our stars goes down, it won't be pretty.

[fpliii]

Pierce may be close to done (he might still be able to thrive in a limited role though), however KG was again a top 5 defender last year in terms of impact, so you could easily get a couple more great years from him on that end.

Indeed. Actually most nets fans are realistic at the fact that we are still not gonna beat the Heat in a 7 games series with this current squad without further trades/FA Signings. No idea why Knicks fans get so cocky though, perhaps thats the way they normally are.
:rockon:

[veilside23]

IF kg and pierce were in their 20's LoL ... it would be a massacre... seriously

Kg with a washed up latrell and and injured sam casell beat the ol might lakers twice in WCF. just imagine KG with prime Pierce and deron williams plus an all star center :D ... would have been 4 peat hahahahaha

[Heavincent]

Yup OP, I'm just terrified of JR Smith, the dude who shot 33% in the playoffs :roll:

OP is all giddy after his team FINALLY wins a playoff series (first time in about a decade) against a Rondo-less Celtics team.

[pegasus]

I really like the Garnett-Lopez frontcourt tandem. KG is still one of the best paint defenders in the league and still has that mid-to-long range J which will help spread the floor for Lopez.

Not sure about DW, JJ, and PP being on the floor at the same time, though. Too many ball handlers and mediocre defenders.

[Dagouch]

On Paper right now the Nets have the edge on the Knicks. The only clear advantage the Knicks have with each Starting five is Melo.

KG is clearly maybe a year away from hanging it up but Pierce in a limited role could play a few more years.

Eastern Confernce next season will be very interesting with the Nets, Knicks, Bulls and Pacers fighting take down Miami.

You know what, now that you brought it up, it is even more hilarious now that the Knicks gave up all those draft picks. The furthest they have gone since then is the First Round right?

:roll:

So they gave up all those picks just to be a mediocre team. :oldlol:

The Nets have no chance in hell of beating the Heat. Lopez will do work, but Miami would slaughter them in transition. the Nets starting lineup is amazingly slow. Didn't you see Pierce during the Knicks series? He could barely move out there

thats what was said when they played the old and slow spurs too. same with the old and slow mavs too. spurs should have won. heat got lucky. thats besides the point. and pierce won't be remotely close to the same role he was with the celtics. he's going to be a fourth option behind brook, deron, and joe so bringing up the knicks series is irrelevant.will the nets beat the heat? probably not. can they? yes, if they are fully healthy.

So the AMAZING and star studded Knicks were pushed to 6 games by a team without their best player (Rondo) and two AARP, old and withering away players. :roll: Come on dude. You're just mad that the Nets have a better team than the Nets man. Come on now. Until the Knicks get rid of Amare and get a legit point guard, they aren't going anywhere. But Miami is still ahead of everyone. If Wade is healthy come next postseason, Miami is still the favorite.

Yo you lost in a convincing fashion to the Pacers. Thus far I don't see them making any moves to make the Knicks suddenly amazing.

[ConanRulesNBC]

Here's the thing, KG and Pierce had to lead the Celtics all by themselves after Rondo went down. They had no other help. No one expects them to lead the Nets. It's still going to be Deron Williams' team. KG and Pierce are coming to help. They'll be playing with Brook Lopez, Deron Williams and Joe Johnson. Way more help than they've had the past two seasons. The Nets are stacked.

[(e)]

I'd put money on the Nets having more wins than the Knicks next year.

Lots of weapons, and the potential starting 5 looks nuts.

[VCDrivesAPorscheToWork]

Yeah today at work, all of the Knick fans were saying how the Nets still aren't good enough.. how the Nets will still win 45 game sand the Knicks 55+.

I asked them how they would feel if Nets stayed put and Knicks got KG, Pierce, and Terry and kept Felton, Shumpert, Carmelo, and Tyson.

They cited some mumbo jumbo about 2 championships over 40 years ago...



Fact is... Nets got rid of Wallace for Pierce... KG for Reggie Evans... Terry for Marshon Brooks... and they can keep Hump, Keith Bogans, and that other kid.

Old or not... they traded old for old... but upgraded talent.

[tazb]

Nets > Knicks. Stay mad.

[StocktonFan]

Yeah, Rondo played well in that series... oh wait OP is a *******

[The JKidd Kid]

I think that the funniest part about the but hurt Knicks fans is that they were all Nets fans during the early-mid 2000s and if anyone says they werent, then theyre lying. I guess they should have stuck with the right team instead of switching the minute the Knicks started hitting some 3s. Another funny part is how if the Knicks hadnt gotten ridiculously hot at the beginning of the season, they would be a 5th seed after Chicago. And I dont know why theyre talking about AARP when theyre team is old as Sh*t too and theyre old guys arnt even productive.

It still hasnt hit me how stacked this starting lineup is. Paul Peirce is the worst starting player on the Nets... just let that soak in for a few minutes.

LMAO yes they were. If you asked anyone back in 2002-2006 Nets or Knicks, every single person would say Nets, especially anyone who is in college or graduate school now and grew up with the Nets making Finals appearances while the Knicks had Isaiah groping people and Eddy Curry eating people. Also, those so called old guys made the All-Star team last year and almost beat the Knicks as the only players on that Celtics team along with Green.

Such bullshit :lol no real knicks fans were switching to the nets, and give me a break the celtics were primed to swept off the court even without jr in game 4. We can go back and forth all day but i dont see how adding a bunch of washed up 40 year old vets makes the nets contenders.

No, just no. It was absolutely Embarrassing to be a Knicks fan in the 2000s, everyone I new was a Nets fan (most of them are Knicks "fans" now), even my Dad who grew up watching Walt Frazier would just shrug his shoulders when the Knicks played. And yes they do make us contenders, we won as many games as the 3rd seed last season with Deron injured for half the year and our main problem was shooting, defense, toughness and production from the forward positions. This trade literally solves all of those problems, while adding a legitimate role player in Terry. The Heat arnt unbeatable anymore now that Wade is declining, the Pacers took them to 7 games and we swept the Pacers in the regular season with the spacing NIGHTMARE of Wallace and Evans at the 3 and 4.

The Nets worst starter is Paul Pierce, while the Knicks are starting Iman Shumpert at small forward. Just let that soak in for a minute.

[KyleKong]

This thread is more juicy than redtube.

[DStebb716]

While you have a semi-valid point, you just said that the Knicks are building form "within" and then mentioned the only two first round picks the Knicks have had in the last eternity. You're an idiot and make Knicks fans look bad.

[Smoke117]

There really is no balloon to to deflate. Pierce is pretty much done. His bet asset offensively was the fact that off the dribble he was able to get to the rim with his hesitation moves. He's old now and that hasn't worked in a couple of years...hence why he gets so many charges these days. I like KG but honestly he can't play more than 25-28 min per gamer. Yeah in the playoffs he might be a stud, but through an 82 game season he really isn't going to effect much as he won't play enough minutes.

Pierce is just done. He was never any kind of athlete and he's now 36. Driving he gets a charge more than he gets the foul call. The nets are frankly a mess and I think it's fun. I'm curious to see what the hell they do with this line up. At the very least it should be...interesting.

[Heavincent]

Pierce isn't done. He put up 17/6/5 last season. I watched the game when he dropped 40 points on 16 shots last year...dude can still ball.

Wallace is a good defender and energy guy, but he couldn't shoot for crap last year. Nobody even guarded him on the perimeter. Pierce will do wonders for the floor spacing (not that I want him being just a spot up shooter).
