Between his passiveness/lack of aggressiveness and not missing his free throws, Jarrett Allen is fukking killing me :snoop:

I’m not gonna overreact to Jarrett Allen, but it’s year fukkin 3

I was at the game and it was fukking pathetic watching him. I was just wishing for him to be benched for DAJ. Dude is just weak and finishing around the basket is suspect. He has all the tools but physically he aint it..its year fukking 3 like you said. KAT was cooking him.


Kyrie in person is fukking insane. I was never his biggest fan and I cant deny his talent but yo son was cooking tonight..one of the best offensive performances ive ever seen in person. The handles is crazyy live. Super upgrade over russell esp his ability to get by his man and get to the basket at will. Hes unguardable

Spencer been tryna hit Jordan with them alleys since preseasn and he needs to stop..turnovers and free throws killed us. But like @Megadeus said we deserved to lose this one. It was needed.

Once this team gels we will be a problem. Still need to be more aggressive on D we gave up way too many easy layups..you dont know how disgusted i was seeing wiggins getting layups but then to have bum ass treveon graham get easy ones..that was it for me. Still an element of toughness missing.


Now they need to get it together and beat the breaks off them other guys on Friday.

Seeing that Kyrie performance live :dead:

Taurean was huge in the 2nd half, sparked us

Rest of the team tho :shaq2:

Allen and Jordan were bad, Spence was fukking obsessed with throwing a lob to DJ, turning down open looks to throw it up to him with 2 guys on him.

LeVert was just sloppy, Rodi was a disaster, Harris was a ghost 1st half

But still, we got a star in Kyrie and KD is coming :banderas:

Bench gave y’all ZERO outside of Dinwiddie. That has to change. Musa might have to play sooner than later cuz Kyrie can’t go for 50 every night.

If neither Temple nor Nwaba are gonna have a noticeable impact on defense then he absolutely deserves minutes. shyt I think Kenny had them on the floor at the same time at one point :hhh:

Not mad. That was a very entertaining loss. Kat always plays well against us.

Nets are going to lose a lot of games where they have to defend a mobile big that can shoot the 3 and has a decent wing next to him.

Their defense was shyt.

They missed too many FT’s and turned the ball over too much.

Dinwiddie was wilding with those garbage lobs to DJ. He missed ALLLLLLLL of them shyts.

The 2nd unit is trash offensively, Dinwiddie is the only one that can create his own shot. Temple needs to either get a green light or sit down. I’d rather they play Musa.

Gonna say this and I know it’s early. The team needs to play Claxton at least 15 min a game. He fills a huge hole at the PF. He’s lanky and has a good jumper but can also push the rock off rebound for easy buckets. Best big perimeter defender on the team.

This game was kind of a bad matchup. Really disappointed in Jarett, I expected him to be better with that said, it's a long season, so hopefully we learn from the loss and get better.

Agree on all these points.

The defense showed zero resistance.
Instead of Kenny playing the 3 of spencer, kyrie and caris together, hes gonna need to try to have a combo of at least 2 of the three on the floor most of the game.
Playing the 3 together makes no sense as does playing Nwaba and temple together.

Musa needs to get some mins with the second unit. Need that other shot creator.
