Klout says I'm influential about Pizza, Meghan McCain, and Chris Paul. I have no idea why people would follow that sort of account.

[Robert James @RobertJamis]

@ghoti00 Probably right, but who knows. Point is it's almost impossible to tell after one year.

[Robert James @RobertJamis]

It's dumb to speculate on who the best guy is at this point but he clearly landed in the best situation. If he landed on a bad team he might have looked like a rookie chucking 40 shots a game or whatever.

[SleeperHoops @Sleeper_Hoops]

TRUE/FALSE: Dylan Harper is the best player from the 2025 NBA Draft class.

[Robert James @RobertJamis]

There's no fit here. They're a contender in the lottery, Wagler or Brown makes them better inmediately. Acuff and Garland is not a viable back court.

[APHoops @APH00PS]

Darius Acuff Jr.’s name has NOT been brought up lately in connection with the Los Angeles Clippers, per @BrettSiegelNBA.

[Robert James @RobertJamis]

Only Miami and Boston can offer the Bucks what they need for Giannis, so yeah, this makes sense.

[The HEAT Realm @WadexFlash]

Everyone that has mentioned Giannis Antetokounmpo to Miami:

- Chris Haynes (NBA on Prime)
- Brian Windhorst (ESPN)
- Marc Stein (NBA)
- Jake Fischer (Bleacher Report)
- John Hollinger (Athletic)
- Sam Amick (Athletic)
- Kirk Goldsberry (Ringer)
- Howard Beck (Ringer)
- Bill Simmons (Ringer)

It’s finally time to get your star, Pat.

[Robert James @RobertJamis]

Love this if you draft Mara.

[NetsPress @NetsPressIG]

Two Mock Trades:

A blockbuster three-team deal sends Kings star big man Domontas Sabonis and the 15th overall pick (via Chicago).

Nets send Nic Claxton to Chicago and Terance Mann, a future 1st and two future 2nds to Sacramento.

Nets also consolidate picks, packaging 33 and 43 to Minnesota for the 28th pick

[Robert James @RobertJamis]

Aaron Gordon- high effort guy willing and able to add value off the ball. Benefits immensely from Jokic created space. Zion- fat, maddeningly incapable of averaging a double double despite tremendous gifts, fat.

[PMM @pmmbasketball]

AG was a bust in orlando until 25

he was called in defensively to save the generational 1 way center jokic

wemby is a generational defensive center in need of offensive help

its time to call in the bust the save wembys career offensively

he’s also 25 ready to be freed

[Robert James @RobertJamis]

Yes

[TheAllRookiePodcast @williamisbill]

The Greatest Mock Draft of All Time!!! 🚨🚨🚨

[Robert James @RobertJamis]

Mara
Flemings
Wagler
Acuff
Brown
Ament

[Billy Reinhardt @BillyReinhardt]

Vecenie notes the following names have been linked to Brooklyn:

Darius Acuff Jr. (mocked here)
Keaton Wagler
Mikel Brown Jr.
Kingston Flemings
Nate Ament
Aday Mara

How would Nets fans rank those six names in order for Brooklyn?

[jack @Jolly_Olive]

Carson Benge is hitting .310 with 4 HR and 12 RBI in 21 G since this tweet

[Robert James @RobertJamis]

Teams really undervalue a stretch 4. Landeborg is a rich man's Kuzma at worst.

[ItsAllLove @nbanerdd]

Can’t believe one of these teams gets to add Yaxel Lendeborg

It’s really starting to hit me how insane of a player he is

[Robert James @RobertJamis]

@Therealjay__y No I agree I'm just saying he's no longer good enough that you overlook the character concerns. Dude is an old 28

[Robert James @RobertJamis]

In a sane league this guy would be a much higher pick.

[ItsAllLove @nbanerdd]

Bro Hannes Steinbach could be rly fkn good bro only 20 years old… like he’s only gonna move way better & be much more athletic in 2-4 years

If he actually becomes a transition demon bro & just a crazy pick & roller & continues to develop his shot bro….

He’s gonna be insane

[Robert James @RobertJamis]

He's of far more utility to a team like the Lakers. A pick and an out of favor young guy with upside does it for me.

[Jake Weinbach @JWeinbachNBA]

Nic Claxton is another starting-level center that will likely be discussed in trade talks as the Nets evaluate the roster this summer.

The Lakers, Clippers, and Hornets are teams worth noting as possible landing spots for the 27-year-old big man.

[Robert James @RobertJamis]

I totally agree. Its a weird envy thing. Two teams in a different place.

[Brooklyn Netcast @BrooklynNetcast]

I guess I’m in the minority but, I’m really not upset about the Knicks whole playoff run.
It’s an all-time run, you simply have to respect how impressive it is.

I think I would be angry or upset if the Brooklyn Nets had been competitive. For example, I am a Bills fan and was LIVID when the Patriots made it back to the Super Bowl.

I simply don’t feel the same way about the Knicks being successful right now due to the fact the Nets are bad and not actively seeking a championship or really even a playoff run for that matter. Hope that makes sense. 🤷‍♂️

[Robert James @RobertJamis]

There's a certain genre of JV slob fan who hates his life and is unsatisfied if every player isn't as hot tempered as Wally Backman at all times.

[Master Flip 🇩🇴 @Masterflip_]

The baseball world needs to understand something important.

Juan Soto isn’t being criticized because he didn’t run out a routine ground ball to second. He’s being criticized because he’s currently the most hated player in the game.

He’s hated because he’s a Met. #lgm

He’s hated because he’s the highest-paid player in the sport. 💰

And yes, he’s hated because he’s Dominican. 🇩🇴

[Mets Therapy @mets_therapy]

The Mets rotation is not the issue. The Mets “bulk” pitchers have a 2.61 ERA over the last 9 games. Don’t let the Brazoban starts fool you, the problem with Mets is they forget how to hit 4 times a week.

[Robert James @RobertJamis]

Someone who thinks he can be a serviceable platoon bat.

[April @aprilglick]

if Vientos gets DFA’d who claims him? does he get claimed

[Connor Williams⚾🏴‍☠️ @Wins_Williams]

Putting myself in the shoes of a Mets fan I honestly don't think I could be bothered to care. My team is 15 games back of 1st with a negative run differential and the 2nd worst offense in MLB, the 160 ops+ hitter who spent time on the IL with a calf strain gets a pass idrc

[Robert James @RobertJamis]

He's going to be excellent. He was instantly the alpha on a team that was already stacked, he's a true, highly efficient point, and his vertical and first step are both elite.

[ItsAllLove @nbanerdd]

Kingston Flemings

- Great mid range shooter
- Great facilitator
- Really good defender
- Really good 3pt shooter especially on more volume
- VERY Athletic
- ^ Extremely quick
- Great at getting paint touches
- Great at collapsing defense
- Great at playing in a system (not bad basketball)
- Great teammate
- High motor
- Unselfish
- 6’2.5 barefoot, not even that short
- ^ DeAaron Fox 6’2 barefoot

Kingston Flemings is basically everything you want in a lead guard. 💯

Only thing people can try to target is his height or low 3pt volume

1. Bigger than Fox & a MUCH better defender

2. Great 3pt shooter just didn’t need to take high volume at Houston. Knows he will take more in the NBA (via interview)
