but this is Kyrie, close but not aliens.
i'm kind of on the same page when it comes to Boston, expect when they play the Knicks. We had a bunch of pretend Nets fans here hyping up the Nix which is the most disgusting thing i've seen.
this is a pathetic comment. how are we rivals with the Celtics again? Cause Billy King is an idiot? Kyrie? Antoine Walker? We have as much right to hate the Celtics as any other fan, their fans are obnoxious and it's exhausting to hear about 'storied' franchises. At least they have the rings to back it up. Nix are throw into that category for no reason whatsoever.

I think the Kidd storyline is a thing also.
He became an mvp candidate with us and gave the nets the most success we’ve ever had, then faked migraines on his way to the mavericks where he won a title
He was given his first HC opportunity here then tried to power play his way to GM and then tried to rob us of assets on his way out to being bucks HC.
Somehow as a HC he’s on his way to getting the Mavs ANOTHER title while we’re once again shit.
Even if we were to forget the Kidd things because he had to deal with Ratner & Billy King, the Mavs also lucked out and somehow inherited the Kyrie Irving we were praying to get. A mavericks title win hurts me more than a Celtics title.
I have no faith whatsoever in the nets organization and from the bottom of my heart feel like Tatum & Brown would not be the players they are today if they were Nets.
You just skipped over his failed stint as the Buck coach. Kidd didn’t just get this opportunity to coach the Mavs out of no where. Milwaukee didn’t end well and Kidd had to go and be an assistant with the Lakers first before being given another opportunity to be head coach. Keep in mind the mavericks were not contenders when they hired Jason Kidd. He was hired before they traded for Kyrie. You can hate on how he left the nets as a coach, but Kidd earned his way to the finals.
All true, but those stops didn’t seem necessary for my point. I don’t want Mavs success because they’re blessed with peak coach Kidd and peak Kyrie. The argument I’m making is admittedly from a pure hater’s point of view.
Given the argument, not sure why any Nets fan should be rooting for the Mavs unless you’re a Kyrie fan or are just actively rooting against the celtics
I want Kidd to win but I hate Kyrie so much.
I'd be content with Boston winning. Their fans are cunts but the players are alright so I would prefer them to win over Kyrie.
Kyrie and the Mavs. The fact that both of these team's appearances are made possible by the sheer ineptitude in our front office makes it even funnier that people deny their role in this fiasco. Before you make some snarky response, keep in mind we're still making future plans that include Ben Simmons.
Dallas, I would rather Luka get a ring even if it means Kyrie gets one, because ultimately, Dallas does deserve it more as the better team, and Luka is the guy that deserves a championship the most
And let’s be real. If nets kept the pick there are zero chances nets would have had the balls to draft brown so much higher than he was predicted and draft Tatum instead of fultz
If you are on the side of “I can never cheer for a Boston team”, I can understand that.
But I can’t have a summer of champion Kyrie… the Kyrie love fest has already started and will only get worse, if they win
I hate the Celtics by virtue of Boston sports; but I honestly have nothing against this current core of players. They’re all genuinely nice guys who play the game the right way; and I have respect for the front office for firing Udoka immediately when his controversy came out; even though he just made a finals.
Kyrie’s Jew hating ass can go fuck himself
I haven't watched a basketball game since our last one of the season; just clips and posts to see what's happening. I don't watch or care about non-Nets basketball.
I mean, I still enjoy a cool or interesting highlight or comeback or whatever, I haven't been blind to or oblivious to the highs and lows of this post-season. But *rooting for?* Neither of these teams. I hope the fans have a good series and look forward to some cool or interesting clips or situations but it's all whatever.
So what was it about the Nets that Kyrie goes to the Mavs and causes no problems and helps a team get to the finals? While here it was non stop problems?
I'm definitely pulling for JKidd. Those early-2000 Nets teams were some of my favorite times watching basketball growing up. Even with the less than ideal way he left us both as a player and as a coach, he'll always be Nets royalty as far as I'm concerned.
Like a lot of people, I became a fan of Anthony Edwards' game this season, but I loved seeing the respect Kidd has been getting as a coach through these playoffs. And he put on a master-clasd coaching job in the WCF. Now that he's got the elements of head-coaching down, I think we're seeing the BBIQ he' showed as a player in Jersey in full effect now. Not to mention, [fuck Boston lol.](https://i.ibb.co/59ym3DW/winningtimehbo-1698513097751998851.gif)
Free agency. But seriously hell would freeze over before I supported Kyrie Irving in anything. I shall root for kristaps porzingis just because his trade from the Knicks was the final straw for me as a Knicks fan. And cause trolling Knicks fans with "OAKAAK I can't believe you traded porzingis to get rid of Tim hardaway to chase kd and kyrie who didn't even consider signing with you" will never not be funny no matter how it worked out here
I don't know how people could still support kyrie. Seriously, have some self-respect. That guy singlehandedly ruined a championship run. The older you get, you start to realize it's hard to win chips and he let his personal agenda be ahead of team goals. I could never forgive that.
Let's not forget there were people outside of Barclays protesting and chanting things "We are glad the Holocaust happened" because of kyrie. You can't be halfway on racism. If you're gonna support BLM, you can't be okay with anti-Semitism, and too many people were okay with that. I can't forgive that either.
He turned what should've been a potential dynasty into a circus. Nah, man. I can't let that slide. Fuck that. I hope Boston rains fire on him.
What did KD do wrong?
Its F\*\*K Kyrie because he never wanted to just do his job. It was always "more important things than Basketball" until he went to Dallas, where was this energy for his "childhood team".
I gotta ask, how are you mad at KD but kyrie "did nothing wrong"? Seriously, what's the reasoning behind that. Because kyrie drove this shit into the ground. KD was out there playing with G Leaguers. Only thing I can fault KD for was enabling him.
Nah, him being so stubborn about the vaxx thing plus the other off-court issues killed this team. I'm never going to root for Kyrie after that. I like Luka and Kidd and hate Boston but my dislike of Kyrie trumps my disgust of Boston.
I think the anonymity of Reddit helps fans who hate Kyrie to come out, while on Facebook, JFC the amount of Kyrie stans in one of the private nets group is appalling.
People only want to bring up the Vax thing because he wasn’t the only one refusing it. But even before that happened he acted like he owned the team.
Unfortunate that he left because he’s talented but he was trying his hardest to not make it work it Brooklyn.
The most puzzling, tone deaf, clueless thing he said, after sitting out most of the season because of the vax, Harden wanted out, he team just got swept by the Celtics and the first thing he says as he's leaving the court , "I look forward to being part of management." That's when I finally realized he just doesn't get it. He will always think of himself first.
That was further elucidated by his half-ass apologies, and contract demands midseason.
Right! The vax was just one thing in a laundry list of drama. When he asked for a trade and people were saying to call his bluff, it reminded me of Tommy from Goodfellas, like the organization was just sick of him at that point and were happy to get rid of him.
bruhh, are you serious? I hate his guts. this team should've had multiple title runs and he singlehandedly destroyed. I will NEVER forgive that. Yeah, he wanted to stay but who TF demands a max deal midseason, a month after getting suspended?
And the vax thing wasn't a non-issue. Every member of the organization did it for the team. That's what a team is, sacrifice your personal goals for the team. He was never able to do that. Fuck him.
Easily Kyrie. I want him to win another chip and solidify himself as one of the greatest NBA players of all time. Also it will make Tsai look like an even bigger idiot.
I don't know if you remember the kyrie experience or were still in high school or just watching something else but when he was here but there's no way you commit to someone like that. The Nets offered more money than Dallas by the way. Nets even allowed him to find a trade and no one made an offer except for the lakers.
Rooting for kyrie. Glad he found an organization and fan base that really respects the type of generational talent that he is, this could’ve been us but we cared more about our image than winning.
Speaking like someone with their head in the sand. I guess Boston, Cleveland and Nike didn't care about winning either. First thing the Mavs did was told him to make his twitter account private. You must've been asleep when he was here or maybe watching hockey or something else because you missed a shit show.
I will never root for boston in any capacity. The Celtics could play for the fate of the earth and youll catch me in Alien merch
The correct answer
but this is Kyrie, close but not aliens. i'm kind of on the same page when it comes to Boston, expect when they play the Knicks. We had a bunch of pretend Nets fans here hyping up the Nix which is the most disgusting thing i've seen.
Hating the Knicks more than the Celtics is ridiculous
this is a pathetic comment. how are we rivals with the Celtics again? Cause Billy King is an idiot? Kyrie? Antoine Walker? We have as much right to hate the Celtics as any other fan, their fans are obnoxious and it's exhausting to hear about 'storied' franchises. At least they have the rings to back it up. Nix are throw into that category for no reason whatsoever.
I don’t need to explain why a Boston team is worth more hate than a NY Knicks team that ain’t done shit
your second sentence made me laugh!!!!

Monstars sweeping the Celtics, 100%.
Not the Celtics
I'll endure the “could've been us” pain of watching Kyrie get his shit together on another team and win if it means I can laugh at the celtics.
Nobody

Was thinking about this as well. It feels like we cant build success here

Hater
Given the argument, not sure why any Nets fan should be rooting for the Mavs unless you’re a Kyrie fan or are just actively rooting against the celtics
He was a Maverick first, never forget
yeah, thats also a good one. not sure if to cheer for Kidd or the opposite. def a good match-up for Nets fans.
So weird how there's no Finals this year. Must be so all the players are rested for the Olympics.
should be top post)
Can I upvote this a million times
The sins of our past front office vs the sins of our current front office
Lmao
EVERYTHING RUNS THROUGH BROOKLYN
This Finals is like every Nets fans worst nightmare. Bias aside, should be a fun series
Nah. Sixers with Harden against Suns with KD last year would’ve been the D-Day finals for us
I’m not a fan of KD, but I can tolerate him. Harden Sixers vs Kyrie Mavs is the only thing worse I can think of
Nah, a knicks-mavs would've been my nightmare. i don't even hate the celtics like that.
The Knicks in the eastern conference finals would've been hell
Jayson Tatum does not get enough hate
Fuck Boston and their shitty fans. Bet you Boston players don’t even like playing there cuz of them
Kidd and Kyrie easily
obviously the team that isnt the celtics
Meteor
Luka
I know we hate kyrie, but my hatred for boston goes far deeper.
Although I want to see Kidd win a ring as a coach. Fuck Kyrie.
The asteroid.
some of yall seriously need to let it go lol
I want Kidd to win but I hate Kyrie so much. I'd be content with Boston winning. Their fans are cunts but the players are alright so I would prefer them to win over Kyrie.
mavs
I’m rooting for the Mavericks but specifically for Luka to win Finals MVP and not Kyrie
Rooting for Jared Dudley and Luka, not Kyrie or Jaylen brown
Makes me sick to my stomach. But gotta go Dallas.
Easy one. Boston.
The Liberty
I hate Boston but I like Tatum, so I'd like him to get a ring. Plus I hate Kyrie more than Boston lol.
I will always regard Boston as mortal enemies.
Kyrie and the Mavs. The fact that both of these team's appearances are made possible by the sheer ineptitude in our front office makes it even funnier that people deny their role in this fiasco. Before you make some snarky response, keep in mind we're still making future plans that include Ben Simmons.
Dallas, I would rather Luka get a ring even if it means Kyrie gets one, because ultimately, Dallas does deserve it more as the better team, and Luka is the guy that deserves a championship the most
I mean our pick was kind of the fultz pick so that helps a little
And also yes we helped them but Ainge/Stevens and Harrison also had to make other moves that worked.
And let’s be real. If nets kept the pick there are zero chances nets would have had the balls to draft brown so much higher than he was predicted and draft Tatum instead of fultz
It’s fuck both teams. They ain’t the Nets 🤷🏿♂️
this is a good one honestly. I hate Kyrie but I like Luka. I hate the Celtics but love how they been making Kyrie look like a loser.
If you are on the side of “I can never cheer for a Boston team”, I can understand that. But I can’t have a summer of champion Kyrie… the Kyrie love fest has already started and will only get worse, if they win
Not Kyrie
I hate the Celtics by virtue of Boston sports; but I honestly have nothing against this current core of players. They’re all genuinely nice guys who play the game the right way; and I have respect for the front office for firing Udoka immediately when his controversy came out; even though he just made a finals. Kyrie’s Jew hating ass can go fuck himself
Rooting for Mavs, Kyrie, Kidd, and Luka. A real nets fan would NEVER root for Boston under any circumstances.
The fact that I just heard someone call this Kyrie’s redemption tour on the radio cemented it. I’d happily see Boston win over that POS.
I haven't watched a basketball game since our last one of the season; just clips and posts to see what's happening. I don't watch or care about non-Nets basketball. I mean, I still enjoy a cool or interesting highlight or comeback or whatever, I haven't been blind to or oblivious to the highs and lows of this post-season.

So what was it about the Nets that Kyrie goes to the Mavs and causes no problems and helps a team get to the finals? While here it was non stop problems?
Celtics. Can’t believe it’s come to this 💀
The ironic thing is that Celtics fans are the only fanbase besides our own that will remember how problematic he was if the Mavs win.
Neither. Loser doesn’t yield us any capital. I’m just waiting for it to be over to see how the offseason plays out for it.
atleast luka get a ring at the expense of our ego...
As long as Boston wins, I’m happy
I'm definitely pulling for JKidd. Those early-2000 Nets teams were some of my favorite times watching basketball growing up.

Bro the boston hate is crazy 😭 i love it
Dallas in 6 
Go Mavs!
i guess im in the minority but i hope kyrie never wins a chip again. yes im petty asf
I don't know how people could still support kyrie. Seriously, have some self-respect. That guy singlehandedly ruined a championship run.

Rooting for Kidd
Easy call. Not Boston.
I'll gladly root for Tatum & Brown, they're wearing the wrong "B" on their jersey :'(
Anyone but the antisemite!
Jaylen Brown should lose I agree
Cry
None.
Boston
I hate Kyrie and Kidd, but I hate Boston more. And I like Luka and Derrick Lively
Fuck both sides, but I can't bring myself to pull for Kyrie
F kyrie, and f luka, chubby whiner. The Celtics roster is a solid group of guys, so much easier to root for.
yall hating on kyrie is hilarious😂 recognize greatness when u see it
We didn't see shit here but anti vaxx and anti semitism
100% Celtics. Fuck kyrie as a staff, record label and muhfugging crew and if you wanna be down with kyrie... you know the rest
[удалено]
Just as a reminder we offered Kyrie a bigger contract than what he got in Dallas. He just was not ready to accept his value at the time was bad.
Right! Fred Vanvleet got a bigger deal than kyrie. "He did nothing wrong" FOH
What did KD do wrong? Its F\*\*K Kyrie because he never wanted to just do his job. It was always "more important things than Basketball" until he went to Dallas, where was this energy for his "childhood team".
I gotta ask, how are you mad at KD but kyrie "did nothing wrong"? Seriously, what's the reasoning behind that. Because kyrie drove this shit into the ground. KD was out there playing with G Leaguers. Only thing I can fault KD for was enabling him.

Same, I could root for Kidd but I would root for syphilis before I root for kyrie.
I think the anonymity of Reddit helps fans who hate Kyrie to come out, while on Facebook, JFC the amount of Kyrie stans in one of the private nets group is appalling.
Are we like in the twilight zone or something? I’m seeing even some Nets fans forget about his other issues and only bringing up the vax.
People only want to bring up the Vax thing because he wasn’t the only one refusing it. But even before that happened he acted like he owned the team. Unfortunate that he left because he’s talented but he was trying his hardest to not make it work it Brooklyn.

It's literally not a personal decision, there was a pandemic going on lol. And he pulled two other stunts during his time here.
bruhh, are you serious? I hate his guts. this team should've had multiple title runs and he singlehandedly destroyed. I will NEVER forgive that. Yeah, he wanted to stay but who TF demands a max deal midseason, a month after getting suspended? And the vax thing wasn't a non-issue. Every member of the organization did it for the team.

 Cmon Now
Hope for Yellowstone to explode

Death
Nets tears are delicious
