GT: Pelicans @ Nets 3/19 - 7:30 

Post#1 » by Stone » Tue Mar 19, 2024 11:26 pm

Got some tough games coming up starting tonight with the Pelicans.

Just read we had a players only meeting after the Pacers game.

We are now 4.5 games behind the Hawks with 13 games left in the regular season.

Lack of chemistry, lack of confidence and talent. Lack of leadership. Subpar coaching. Absentee ownership.

If we didn’t have some of the best announcers in the business, it would be almost unwatchable at this point.

This is so spot-on, it hurts. We don't gel.

And, i think, the little grit and determination we do organically show, our coaches and front office discourage. The players don't understand the purpose of this roster construction, they don't know if they're part of the core or out the door.

And seriously, don't underestimate the vibe killing effect on the players that ***the Koch family becoming minority owners*** has on the team. If we thought our ability to recruit free agents was horrible after this season, just wait until they take the reins.

I'm quitting this franchise if Joe sells a piece of us to them. I've been through tons of highs and lows with the Nets over the last 30 years, and I'll endure 30 more God willing. But this would be the final straw.

I am sick of this team. I have been a fan for 40 years. This sh%t needs to get in order. They better fix this roster this offseason. This is terrible and I refuse to watch until they take it seriously. There are only 2-3 guys playing hard each game. The rest are checked out!!!

I have watched maybe 10 minutes in the last 2-3 weeks and doubt that I am the only one

If they do not show a clear direction by this summer we will have issues with the fan base.

I am not commenting until then. **** needs to change.
