Regardless, what is the coaching staff supposed to do about guys constantly turning over the ball on offense? What about them constantly losing their man on defense or not doing a good job of gang rebounding? Coaches can only do so much, at some point its beyond their control, and our issues certainly are at this point. DJ hasn't even played in this game yet, and he played 10 mins against OKC. Have we looked better with less DJ?


There are problems across the board, this focus on Nash while giving the players a pass is dishonest.

Everything sucks balls right now. The only thing that we can do is score.

Nash has done literally what everyone was begging him to do with DJ, and lo and behold, we’re still getting whupped without him.

At a certain point, it’s a player problem, not a coaching problem.


Yeah but he benched DJ and Had Green play the 5 when he could've played Perry or even Kurucs. Might as well play DJ at that point.

That lineup to end the half, also made zero sense. Kept leaking pts and he made no adjustments whatsoever.

It’s not reasonable to expect us to just outscore teams every night, especially a team as good as Denver.


A ton of those points are coming fro extra possessions from turnovers. Thats the point.


And it’s Nash’s fault that the players are committing moronic TOs?

Yes because we literally have no offensive plays or any type of game plan.

We look unprepared and confused every game.

This same team looked WAY better with Atkinson.

Reggie Perry has shown nothing so far, even in garbage time :lol: And Kurucs playing C is asking for disaster.

We gotta figure out a way to defend. We've only stopped Denver tonight when they've had unforced TOs. They're getting whatever they want and rebounding any misses.

The Nets are back! They clearly read this thread and got their feelings hurt at halftime.

The guys who actually care and want to play are here and I'm rooting for them. Great way to come back on both ends

Hey so is Nash doing an amazing job again? We haven’t missed a shot in this quarter and it’s now a 4 point game.

Amazing how making shots at an unrealistic clip makes everything look great again. But this isn’t sustainable, if we can’t stop Denver it won’t matter, and they’ll pull away again once our shot making becomes human again.
