What’s this place?
What is Golden 1?
Let’s Go!!!!!!!!!
Nets looked completely overmatched here early on…
I’m rolling with you
They have some guy called KD that’s supposed to be pretty good
True, but Durant plus spare parts isn’t quite at the caliber of Curry plus spare parts.
Kings are almost playing with….swagger….right now? Just need to guard against overconfidence at this point.
Agreed. Kings look like a team that know they’re leagues better than their opponent right now
Strategy so far so good
Yeah it’s very apparent early on. Kings just gotta play their game and not force stuff and have bad turnovers
I like our energy so far tonight
Fo sho.
We match your superstar with our superstar.
Huerter is just so sick
Kings making the Nets look silly, and all TNT is doing is showing Nets highlights. ????
This team is giving 98-99 team vibes. The start of something good.
I’ve been on that train for awhile now. ????
Nets really are a truly terrible rebounding team. Kings absolutely dominating them on the boards right now
Domas bullying the Nets
. Looked trapped. He created an amazing amount of space there
How many FT’s does Simmons take tonight? Make?
2 fouls already for Barnes. Wonder if we see some KZ minutes to defend against KD
It’s a game of runs
Kings 3PT shooting off to another slow start
That block looked clean.
Lyles in a funk the last few games
Foxie!!!
Fox for Threeee!
Durant played the whole 12 minutes. They’re going to kill him at this rate.
Meh.
He needs a sprained ankle.
6 point lead but the game doesn’t even feel that close. Hopefully the score will reflect that shortly
Now it is a three point game
They should stop leaving Nets players that wide open for 3 IMO
Good timeout
lyles sucks on/off the floor
What he does off the floor is his business.
I saw what you did there
I hope this was sarcasm I didn’t see, otherwise dont reply if you dont know what im talking about

Why’d TNT interview Nets coach at start of 2nd?
These advertisements of made for TV Holiday films that themselves advertise home make over shows are insidious.
Chill with the threes!
It was an open shot.
That’s their identity. They’re built around their shooting. Gotta keep taking them. Thats how they’ll win or lose since their defense isn’t good
metu efficiency constantly bad and this isnt the night for it
Those jump shots are really bad
I cringe every time he shoots a 3
Gotta expand the lead with KD on the bench….
I have a bad feeling about this.
TD bringing some heat
Hopefully the bad TD doesn’t come out tonight.
Great steal
TD takeover
TD is doing the right thing now. We are getting good TD
Incredible stretch by TD here!
So good!!!!
Van Gundy said this is Simmons’ best play this season on both ends of the floor…wut?
Just shows the level he’s been playing at
TD just lit a fire in the Golden One
The officiating has been beyond awful and extremely slanted, the guys have done an amazing job ignoring it and remaining composed. Just need to keep it up
We always play 8v5
LONG DAY WHAT DID I MISS?
HOLY SHIT TD!
My ESPN box score is 2 scores ahead of the game on the floor
My man TD
So there’s a mic on Vaugh as well? What about the Kings?
To the national press, we’re still the Washington Generals and will remain so until we do something of merit over the course of at least one season.
Holy shit, TD is on fire!
Its crazy how much TNT wants the storyline to be “Nets right ship against Kings.”
Yep, it’s clear that they were in no way prepared, or willing to even consider the possibility of this script playing out the way it is.
Van Gundy watching the Nets getting their teeth kicked in:
TD>KD
Have yourself a night Terence Davis!!!
Not a knock against him at all, but absolutely love Kings making this run with Fox on the bench. Huge confidence booster to the rest of the team
Damn, Keegan hurt?
TD is that guy right now.
Murray questionable to return.
Damn, I had to step away for a minute. What happened?
Off Night!
I thought the Kings interior defense was bad but the Nets are another level
And TNT was saying how week they have been protecting the paint. .5 Let’s go!!!!
Back injury? Take the rest of the week off.
What a run
DAMN SON
Claxton gonna have nightmares about Sabonis
Kings ahead by 20
Somebody getting stomped.
Huerter
Someone needs to arrest Monte McNair for Grand Larceny in the case of the red-headed sharpshooter.
Such a good trade!
24 pt lead
Get ready for some more national televised games, gents.
Remember 0-4 we said “I’ve seen enough.”
🙂
You’re not the only one. Guaranteed.
Raising my hand… I was def one. This is much more fun!
can’t wait to hear the halftime crew
They’ll talk about the Nets.
Finish the quarter strong. Don’t let the NEts get this under 20
KD giving the look he made famous in the Nets loss to Boston 1st round
Damn, thats a brutal 3rd foul by Barnes right before half. Need him in the 2nd half to help defend against KD
Teammate should’ve called that out.
That’s okay. We have KZ Okpala – a guy who could be a future defensive player of the year, after all.
(Just poking a little fun at one of Mike Brown’s very few missteps so far this season.)
Fox with 13 minutes. Wow
Jesus is Van Gundy a Nets broadcaster?
Sounded like Moak said there was a tech on Metu?
I’m really enjoying hearing the TNT announcers have absolutely no idea what to do with how this game has unfolded. ????
Totally ????.
Metu got hit with a tech so the Nets getting a FT to open the 3rd
I feel like we’re watching the Nets network.
Kings are really starting to feel like the 44-38 team I thought they could be this season. And they’re coming on faster than i thought they would, too – I didn’t have them getting back to .500 until game 20. Coach Brown has also made a few references to how fast this team is picking up his concepts.
Defense always takes longer, but I do thing they can get their defense I’ve ratings into the middle to high teens, which should be plenty for a successful season.
You said it all I can only give you 1 rec
Lmao TNT crew is so lost on the Kings. Kenny calling TD “Harris”
He meant Tereson Barnes
Kenny Smith repeatedly called TD, “Harris”. Dudes have no idea who’s on the team. ????????
Sorry I see you already noted this. Apologies for my post.
Poor homework by these fellas.
Man hope Murray is ok… Hope he doesn’t miss any but just a couple games at most
How’d he get hurt?
No clue, never saw anything…just announced he was questionable with back soreness and that the team doesn’t think it’s anything too concerning
Ugh. Hopefully. Back soreness is nothing to mess with. Rest him until it’s 100% gone. It’s so easy for minor back soreness to become a major strain, or worse.
They mentioned “reaching for a steal.”. Really not sure.
Halftime crew knows absolutely nothing about this team it’s embarrassing. Up 19 points at the half and it’s about what the Nets are doing wrong ????
This team continuing to grow and forcing them to learn is gonna be so much fun to watch.
Then we’ll hear them talk about how they were “so high on this young group early on…” ????
I only projected 36 wins. Can’t hide that
This is what happens when you haven’t been on TNT in four years. Still no excuses though
Ernie had to finally say “What about the Kings, they’re ahead.” Kenny Smith called TD “Harris” three times on the big screen. Geez.
What is the nature of Keegan’s injury, just heard when I tuned into the game.
James Ham tweeted back soreness
Thnx. Gundy said he had back tightness after lunging for a ball, muscular in nature.
I have no idea how TD made that lol
What was that from TD
End of Q3 box score looks nice! Bring it home now!
Wow! Just realized that was actually the end 2Q box score.
TD’s line is insane
It’s like throwing the ball into the ocean at this point
And he’s pairing it with good defense and is making the right passes. Just an absolutely insane game from him
OH THIS IS FUN!
TD really can do no wrong this game wow
It’s just incredible to watch this team continue to move the ball around until they find the highest percentage shot. Not every time of course, but more and more often with every game.
I absolutely adore this kind of basketball. It’s so beautiful to watch.
This ball movement is mind blowing. Beautiful flow, playing with such confience right now
I’m loving this soooooo much!
We are throttling the Nets to a gobsmacked national media crew and I’m savoring every minute of it
It’s not just that they’re winning. Even bad Kings teams had some laughers over the years.
It’s HOW they’re doing it right now.
This is sustainable.
For years…
Can’t believe we got Huerter for the 30th pick in the ’24 NBA Draft
You can tell how amped this team was to be playing on national TV. They are flying all over the place with great energy on both ends
I don’t even know what to say
Neither does the broadcast team. ????
They’re clueless I was just speechless
????
It looks like we’re toying with them. Smack down.
Gorgeous offense. Great passing
