The Brooklyn Nets majorly overachieved in The Bubb, and much of that overachievement can be attributed to the individual overachievement of Timothe Luwawu-Cabarrot, who was thrust into a primary scoring role for the team and managed not to completely bungle the opportunity. I honestly thought that the Nets would get destroyed by twenty points ever game, but they won five of their eight games, and their only twenty-point loss came to the Celtics.
When the intensity of play gets ratcheted up in the playoffs, the Nets might not fare so well, but TLC will be right there trying to keep his team in it with three-pointers and…layups, probably? I’m guessing there will be layups involved. If things go right, they can take a game off the Raptors and cause widespread angst across the entire country of Canada. That is honestly the best outcome I can foresee. I really love it when Raptors fans all implode at the same time because they lost one game.
I wonder if Kevin Durant sends TLC text messages of support. I wonder if they’ve ever even exchanged words. I wish I was in a position where I could receive text message of support from KD. “Hey DTB, don’t give up, I just donated two bucks to your Patreon.”
