Sure, things seem to be going great in Philly, but the Nets have a cautionary tale to tell about that most mercurial of figures, James Harden, and it boils down to this: don’t fart in front of James Harden. As Nets fans now know, the slightest imperfection, the faintest blemish, even a whiff of human frailty will send this man running for the hills. So enjoy him now — soak up every second of this glorious honeymoon phase — for it will all come crashing down soon enough.

That said, Ben Simmons, would you mind just suiting up and playing in ONE game for this team? Please. PLEASE?!?!

Two guys - both bespectacled, both of varying but equally unremarkable heights and wingspans, both in no way authorities on the game of basketball - have come together to discuss their shared love, a team that has gone from the losing-est team in the NBA to, well, kind of ok, the Brooklyn Nets.
