Alex Schiffer: Nets rule LaMarcus Aldridge out for tomorrow’s game in Minnesota due to a non-COVID illness along with Kyrie Irving (personal reasons) and as expected, James Harden and Tyler Johnson.
When asked if he thinks the Nets can go all the way in the postseason, he didn’t mince words, declaring, “I think they can win it.” He noted that like any championship team, some injury-related luck will be involved. The Nets have lost both Kevin Durant and now James Harden for extended periods of time due to hamstring injuries. “But assuming everybody’s healthy, I think they’re too deep. I think they’re too good,” said Crawford.
Dr. J was on the latest Inside the Green Room Podcast with Danny Green, and Green asked Erving his take on Brooklyn’s current “superteam” of Kevin Durant, James Harden, and Kyrie Irving. “It’s reminiscent of how the Yankees used to do it all the time. They load up – they call it ‘buying a championship.’ The Lakers are known for doing that too. They’re getting all these pieces … they don’t know at the end of the season what it’s going to look like or what it’s going to feel like, but they’re going to be formidable. You’ve got a team with six former All-Stars, and three [All-NBA] guys who have been there and succeeded in the playoffs.”
Kristian Winfield: Steve Nash says James Harden (hamstring) is working out, getting treatment and is in the building every day with the Nets. “He’s got a little stretch ahead of him, but he’s doing all the right things.”
Justin Kubatko: Damian Lillard became the third player in NBA history to reach 200 3PM within his first 50 games of a season, joining Stephen Curry (5x) and James Harden (3x). Lillard now has seven seasons with 200+ 3PM, tying Klay Thompson for the second-most such seasons in NBA history. pic.twitter.com/F26hWzdUhb
