The refs giving Portland 17 freethrows in the first quarter was egregious.

The refs decided how they were going to call this in the first quarter, but this roster. Yikes. They need to be active at the trade deadline and on the waiver wire.
Refs were very biased against them too. It was crazy.

It's been a rough past few weeks brehs.
We've hit a brick wall.

Eh, most of those were good calls. Clax just can’t hang with true bigs.
It’s become apparent that the defense we saw earlier in the season was fake. Nash is playing “defenders” that can’t defend or rebound.
Theyre gonna need to lean into offense hard with the upcoming roster changes
Fam, it’s the NBA. You don’t call that many fouls in the first quarter. You can literally make most of those calls in almost any game. But losing Allen instead of Spencer will haunt the Nets. Losing Jeff Green too. This is a bad roster. They can’t defend anything.

They got to trade a bunch of these guys or outright cut some of them. Blake Griffin is a wasted spot as are Carter, Johnson and some others. This is a bad basketball team.

Trust in Sean Marks
Marks needs to sit this whole org down and have a talk about the direction they want, because they currently are trying to go in 4 different at the moment.
Nash talks about experimenting, and thinking long-term about finding their playoff rotations. But he plays the same 8 guys unless forced to. He either plays all the kids, or plays Carter/Bembry/Bruce, no mix. So how do you find rotations when they change every game? When guys like Bembry play well and then disappear?
Our 3 stars are the most important thing we have, and they're running KD into the ground for a meaningless game in January. Why did he just play almost 90 minutes in less than 36 hours?
The playoffs are all that matter, and getting those 3 guys there healthy. Tonight should have been Kyrie and the kids, and if they lose they lose. But KD rests and you get real long looks at your youngsters. And then you come back full strength for Wednesday. Instead, we lost anyway and got nothing out of it other than Harden's rest. And KD is doing this to himself, we know they want him to sit more and he's making the call to play.
They talk about thinking long-term, but then come game time they treat every one like its Game 7. That has to stop. Take some advice from Milwaukee and how they keep their stars fresh.
Loss sucks, but if they really do care about 4 months from now they need to smarten up.

If they fail in the playoffs he will be on the hot seat, unless the Big 3 protect him. Hell we know a good chunk of the fanbase wants him fired daily. But he deserves a shot with the team at full strength in the playoffs. He got robbed of it last season and they still almost pulled it off, and lets not forget how good they looked until the injuries last playoffs, if he's to blame when they're bad he deserves the praise when they blew the Celtics away and then the Bucks (for 2 games without Harden until Kyrie's injury).

We need to implement some kind of offensive system or surround Harden with shooters. Obviously Kai back full time and Joe Harris will help, but we need something in the meantime.

They're missing Shamet right now. Never thought I'd say that.
