built around KD. I can't explain what has happened in this series but he has shown time and again that he will give everything the

Bucks series is an example of that. Every player you see interviewed says how obsessed he is with basketball and improving his game.

I know it's easy to rip him apart for this series but lets not throw the baby out with the bathwater the reason that everyone is

disappointed is because its NOT how KD usually plays and that he usually rises to the occasion. I think things have fallen apart for KD

at the worst time. KD should carry some of the blame but when the anger cools down it might be worth looking back at the season

how much he played and how long he was the one who was always there. Now maybe isn't the right time but I hate to see our fans

repeating the crap the media is selling. This season has been a **** show from beginning to end are we really going to negate all the

positives because he couldn't carry the team any further lets be honest the only player who can hold their head up is Bruce the rest

from top to bottom have been a joke.

This is Ferrari that been mishandled. Also, it was me back in a days ( I said that while i was on NetsDaily ) who said J.Kidd was bad hire back than. Got worning for it from @APooch back than, for saying it. Later Bob banned me when whe I said KG needs to be traded and Marks was a bad hire.

It was my example and people running with it now.

Let me tell y'all one thing now. Firing or letting Marks go will be disaster that we won't be able to recover from for a long time. LETTING MARKS GO IS A BAD MOVE.

Just hire competent development coach for future.

THIS IS A BEN SIMMONS AND WHOEVER WE CAN GET ERA NOW.

Let's just ride KD for couple years and move. Both KD and Kyrie will be assets in couple years.

The biggest issue to me is still coaching.

We have seen the right coaches transform franchises.

Udoka in Boston. Budz in Milwaukee. Kerr in GS.

Those teams were not contenders before they hired those guys.

But the guys have to buy in.

Are KD and Kyrie willing to buy in?

We tried it their way. And it didn't work.

If they don't want to buy in, then I'm done with them. Its Nets before everything. Including these clowns.

Why some act like this is not a chip team? This is most talented team out there along with Clippers.

We going to compete for next 2-3 years and go from there simply because we took over NYC. As I believe Dolan still running Ping Pong team and we in BK.

Don't get it twisted people. Yes, this year was waisted. We still be here for years to come. Let's build dynasty and enjoy.

Tell me how in the fu** does D'Antoni gets interviewed by Kings? Why he's not on our bench? We went through all this trash this year?

Bottom line Tsai need to either fire Marks soon or extend him to get this ship right.


Marks needs to go , I don’t care how many good decisions he made in the past , no team with second biggest payroll should fold down after game 1 first round series

There is no sensible explanations, Marks doesn’t hold Nash accountable, alone for this he should be sacked

Sometimes i gotta feeling Marks it’s just a puppet figure in either KDs/Kai hands or Tsai hands

What he build with Atkinson and dAngelo Nets it’s an ancient history , there is no one left besides injured Joe Harris , there is no Brooklyn grid, no SA culture, none of this

He need’s to go and take his buddy Nash with him

Where some of you get this from. This is straight up laughable. Get your facts right

No , because they were **** enemies thats why he hired them , and they were enemies cause Nash once eat Marks lunch in Phoenix

GTFO with your laughable statements, it’s simple , he was hired because there was a connection or same vision not because they differ in their opinions

I hope I explained this to best to my abilities, otherwise i can show you on apples and oranges

I agree.

Now that my emotions are out of it we still have a ton of talent.

Next year we will be adding Ben Simmons and Joe Harris to this team. Keeping Curry and probably Mills.

There is enough talent to win.

Just need a coach who can guide this team in the right direction.

Can't make the same mistake twice. And need 7/11 to buy in.

To me I would let Bruce Brown walk.

Hes been great but him and Simmons are too redundant for us to shell out 12-14 mill for him. Let him go get paid somewhere.

I would spend the money on resigning Claxton. We need him to start Center for us.

:lol:

Go drink some water and chill. Marks was a journeymen and been around.

Steve Trash was KD's trainer during GSW days. That's why he's here period. Kenny was Marks coach. He got fired because of Kyrie and KD. Tsai talk to players before making his decision, there's reports that back it up.

Tsai is owner. We will have to deal with it. Let's see what he does.

KD didn't want it with these Celtics. Too much physicality and we did nothing to make it easier for him.

He saw we had no strategy to beat them and mailed it in.

The team has generally given up on Steve Trash.

Once we lost the first 2 games it was over for these Nets. Talent alone isn't enough.

Maybe KD will now realize that he needs an actual coaching staff behind him to succeed.

KD gave so much **** to Steve Kerr when all he ever did was try to help him.

Now he finally realizes the problem in his mentality.

Kerr is getting the Ws back to the Finals maybe. Were toast.

I know you are being realistic but at the moment when he's been one of the only positives we have can we leave talk of trading Bruce till the off season :lol:

I do think we really need to get some youth into the team though we have struggled against athleticism all season.

We got top 5 player and two top 15 players along. You know how many teams will kill for it?

Guess what, we located in NYC and got owner that talk to players and agents ( as reported by several reporters ). Guess how many players we can get for years to come.

HB is 100% correct here. We need to build and look for players that can fit Ben. KD and Kyrie just happen to fit that description for now.

Now if you look at things and check pattern, I'm not sure Marks making decisions now. Track record from years past tell me otherwise.

Not getting Kuzma? That's not Sean Mrks way. He always gets assets. Letting Din walk etc etc

Trust me. I'd love to go at Robert with some facts for banning me. It's just, I got nothing. Instead, I'll just say I was wrong on that guy.

I really like that monster in Orlando. Isaac value is lowest right now.

If Marks is gone, that dream is gone along.

Not trading him. Hes a free agent.

And probably gets a big contract from this playoff performance where hes just been left open all series.

Bruce is averaging 18/6/3 on 58/50/80 against Boston. He's going to get paid.

I didn't realise he was a free agent. I really think we need younger legs around KD it seemed all through the season no matter which team we played if they had pace we struggled. I know our veterans have all played a part but I think we need to get the balance right for the future.
