The nets front office had a really bad offseason and didn't give up the kind of backup Joe Harris should have given up, the guy doesn't look like he's going to have a tough fight. Early in the season, he sprained his foot while trying to show off his offensive skills

Damn they really about to get rid of everyone that built the Nets culture and then insist it’s still there while all their picks go to the Rockets. Kyrie and Harden about watch Durant struggle for the next 5 yrs from different teams
