Brooklyn Nets at Milwaukee Bucks 8:00 pm

[Yit]

Yeah bad game but still we need to track our players performance vs the Bucks 26 Jan 2018

Allen - 32 (++)
DMC - 29 (=)
Crabbe - 20 (=)
Harris - 16 (=)
Dinwiddie - 13 (-)
CLV - 12 (=)
DAR - 10 (-)
Zeller - 8 (--)
RHJ - 3 (--)
Okafor - 2 (-)
Stauskas - 2 (-)
Acy - 0 (--)

Allen was the only bright spark, DAR will still need some more games to work off the rust (but nice to see his minutes being increased) - hopefully we turn it around the next game (which might be tough on a b2b).

Could you do me a favor?
Track the Yit of the G-League Long Island Nets this week. B/c I think that's where the Yit actually would ring as a true measure of skill.

Hey guys non Nets fan here but I was wondering why Allen gets such little playing time despite producing so well. The remaining bigs like Mozgov, Zeller and Okafor aren't really productive so why doesn't Allen get like 25-30 mins a night?

B/c he's a rookie and the workload in the NBA would wear him down. So they're going wit a slow development wit him. Okafor is part of the plan too, we're just finding roles for them. Him will be more in the offseason. Mozgov is sitting. Jarrett Allen likely succeeds Zeller. But it's good to bring him up slowly.

Russell wasn’t good tonight but he’s a rhythm player and it won’t be easy finding his groove playing spotty minutes.

We can't just ride him 35 mins. coming off surgery, especially when defenses are riding him. He showed flashes, had some mental turnovers, this is the first lengthy team he has seen off surgery. It was tough. He showed signs of the old Russell, some good, some bad habits, which is when he's tries to overcompensate for how a defense blankets a player.

Russell has one habit that holds him back, thinking 3-4 steps ahead instead of making the simple pass. It's going to come, but this team was not the team to work that kink out against.

I notice this too. He always tried to thread the needle instead of making simple passes and it results in some WTF worthy turnovers.

he's 19 and needs to get stronger. His minutes will increase post all star break.

LeVert and Allen are working a thing of beauty for awhile.

Hope to see it continue

At times I think he watched Manu and is like, well Manu made this pass, I can do it too. He himself said it. All the kids he knew wanted to be Kobe Bryant, he grew up wanting to be Manu Ginobli. And I think he'll find out that he's better than him in time, instead of trying to show he is him. I look at D'Angelo Russell and say, bruh you can be Zeke. Isiah was a killer. You have that ability. Stop trying to make the top 5. B/c when he decided, ok keep it simple, open shots, open man, the Bucks were shook.

^Hoping Kenny made him watch those passes on loop clockwork orange-style on his day off last night

Yo LKIRNets - I am already quite tied up trying to compute the NBA set (I am at least more than 1 month behind on the rest of NBA players GCP - no energy to track the G-League though - it's a nice thought nonetheless....

He can be good; not Manu Ginobil level imo; but his decision making isn't there. Maybe it's as simple as realizing what's a good gamble and what's not.
Not to compare the two but I don't think he can be the next Zeke either with the turnovers he commits both Zeke and Ginobili had better decision making.
