76ers VS. Nets Game Preview 11/22/22

Today the 8-9 Brooklyn Nets are up against the 8-8 Sixers. The Sacramento Kings dropped 158 on this team about a week ago so going into this the Nets are not very good. KD is dropping 30 ppg but everyone else on that team is a bum. Even Durant said it. He doesn't like his teammates and wants a trade but I feel no sympathy for him because he left the warriors in '19 voluntarily for this. Kyrie is the only other good player on the nets. Benjamin Simmons is overhyped and underachieving. When he drops 20 the world goes crazy but embiid is dropping 30+ every game, even 59 one game and some people still don't see him as an mvp candidate. On our team, Harden is hurt and Maxey is hurt but Tobias Harris is back. What we have to be able to do is contest KD's fadeaway jumpers from the elbow by not just putting our hands up but jumping at the ball because even though I know that we won't block it we have to contest those shots if we want to win. Kevin Durant is too good to give a wide open shot from anywhere especially from around the free throw line. KD can and will sink midrange jumpers so that is a main priority. Another thing is Kyrie. He has great handles can make 3's, can make midrange, can make layups so I don't know who's gonna be on him but probably Daniel House Jr. who is starting while James Harden is out. PJ Tucker in my personal opinion we should stop paying. He is not performing and he's had zero points in 30+ minutes in many of the past games. This is absurd and there is absolutely no excuse. The seventy sixers will beat the brooklyn nets tonight I am calling it at 10:18 AM 9 hours before the game.
