  • guy ready, averaging 32 a half points per game with 3/34.

  • In three games he's played with Harden.

  • Katie has managed to fill up the stat sheet in these two games, dropping 30 plus in both games to lead the team in scoring.

  • He also added 16 rebounds, 12 assists and six blocks.

  • Meanwhile, James Harden has let his scoring take a back seat in Brooklyn, becoming a facilitator.

  • He has a team high 23 assists in the two games and on Lee 21 points.

  • The question is, how long will he remain?

  • A facilitator?

  • Let's find that MBA analyst today.

  • Agu McKay with us today and the two games that Kyrie, James and Katie have all played in the Nets are averaging over 131 points a game.

  • What stands out to you about their offense so far?

  • Well, the Brooklyn Big Three finally got their first win.

  • Yeah, now we all know that over the course of Kyrie Irving's career, he believes that he is a closer.

  • He is the closer, and on Saturday he showed exactly why 12 points in the last five or six minutes of the game doing work, you know, at three levels of the game off the dribble.

  • We're talking about getting to the rim, using the mid range jumper and, of course, his signature dagger.

  • Three late and I love seeing it.

  • Tyree creates his old opportunities, and that got them a win.

  • Now we all know that we all know this now what we do not know.

  • Still in the equation is that James Harden factor James Harden is a phenomenal talent.

  • But in the long run, as you mentioned Matt, will the team be better if he continues toe, have limited possessions?

  • Just 12 points in the game?

  • Didn't make a three, I believe.

  • Over five from three, only eight shot attempt.

  • So while the Nets got that feel, good wind snapped for everybody behind Kyrie Irving corrodes of late.

  • It will be interesting to see how they find other ways to win, because that will be necessary as well.

  • Yeah, everything could work for 123 games in a time.

  • But when you get in that stretch run of the season, come to post season, it will be interesting to see how the Nets, with hardened by the way 10 or more assists in each of his first five games with Brooklyn, but the defense gave up 41 points to Bam out of bio on Saturday night.

  • What defensive adjustment do they need to make in tonight's rematch?

  • The defensive adjustment that the Nets need to make is to keep that same energy that you have on offense and apply that to your defense, because the Nets, they're still trying to find their rhythm.

  • They're still trying to find their identity, but the league will not wait for them to figure all of that out.

  • Guys like Bam out of bio will look to feast like we saw had himself a night.

  • No one could stop him.

  • Career high 41 points.

  • Oh, and by the way, the Miami Heat.

  • They played without Jimmy Butler, and they played without Tyler hero.

  • So everybody and their mama knew that it had to be Bam stepping up for the Heat to stay competitive.

  • And in the end it came down to a shootout, which is fine, as you mentioned Matt for now in the regular season.

  • But if you are super talented team, yeah, that shootout sort of works but not sustainable for championship teams.

  • And that's something Steve Nash will have to work on.

  • Four PM Eastern with Garlic Jr On radio, I would like you to discuss why the heat uniforms look like a gender reveal.

  • Don't wear them again.

  • Uh, maybe they're like dames twins, right, boy and girl that z purple.

  • Modernize it.

  • Thank you.
