The best/worst part is there was an adjustment to the defensive scheme..The team was a lot more aggressive on screens and Allen wasn’t playing 5 feet off the ballhandler. Unfortunately it went right out the window once he got in foul trouble because DJ is incapable of moving his feet.

So maybe there’s progress?

He's a physical defender. It's also why he gets under PG's skin.

Anyways. What was the realistic expectations for this team. I saw them as a 5-6th seed at best without KD & as currently constructed. They definitely have to cut down on turnovers. Blowing a 15 point lead like that is weak as hell.

They should be better than the D'angelo led Nets.

If not. Then Kyrie is the problem.

Celtics go to the ECF without him, Bron loses him and goes right back to the finals without him. He comes back and loses 4 straight to the Bucks.

Celtics are 8-1 with Kemba Walker. Now this shyt with Kylie.

Nah. He's the issue if this keeps up. Plus I don't think Caris likes his ass either

Rodi missed Dlo. Dlo used to get him alot of easy layups and looks and get his confidence going.

Rotation was good tonight. Claxton and Musa need to play and I liked that lineup with them together. Musa more he plays better he will be.

Jazz also shot 35fts :francis:

He misses DLo, but I've lost count of how many times the ball has swung to him for an open/semi-contested 3 and he does that awful pump and either travels, runs into a defender for a charge, or has to stop the drive and pass out.

DLo or not, he's getting chances to shoot and passing every time. They gotta scare him into shooting or something.

It also was a bad sign when Kenny trashed him early in preseason, I didn't know why at the time but clearly he's been a different player since camp and they can't figure it out.

The acy pump fake drive is back with Kurucs. And hes not a bad shooter at all.

Kenny was right for trashing him when Kurucs said he wanted to be more Draymond like. Dude just do like everyone else and shoot when open. Maybe the trial is in his head I dont know.

Engaging with Celtics fans is pointless. They’re, understandably, frustrated because Sean Marks did in 3 years what Danny Ainge has failed to do in 7. Let them get their bitterness out and enjoy their 2nd round exit

Same Kyrie,ball stopper and selfish,this team not even an upgrade with Kyrie and D-Lo switching spots,same as Boston looking great without Kyrie,same as Cleveland not doing anything with Kyrie,before Lebron came.

Keep stanning tho,it’s never Kyrie:russ:

So in short you haven't followed the Nets or watched a game all season and are going off narratives.

Not the fact the Nets rank 5th in most turnovers a game, or their 28th ranked defense, or that they give up the 5th most points per game in the league...Its Kyrie :comeon:

Always Kyrie

We’ll see where they end up by allstar break. And I’ve watched 5 of their games to be exact just to see how he gonna fukk them up like he did Boston and couldn’t do shyt in Cleveland until Lebron came and bailed him out
