Were the best 3 point shooting team in the NBA and we literally miss all of them. How can we possibly win without any spacing at all.


You nailed it right there......No spacing

This is just a repeat of last year. Were going to lose 11 in a row.

Get a 7 or 7 seed. Get swept by Boston and KD demands a trade again.

Being a Nets fan is Hell.

Too many useless roster spots on this team. Sean Marks needs to go if he does nothing at the deadline. Should've done more in the offseason as well

Curry/Harris/O'Neal/Yuta are all good to great 3 point shooters.

If all of them miss wide open shots how is that on Marks lol. Its not even on Vaughn.

Its on them. We have had 3 straight games of horrific 3 point shooting.

We can absolutely blame Ben. His offense is utter garbage.

And he got cooked on defense all night.

Why is he making 30 million? He sucks.

I would literally trade Kuzma for him tomorrow.

It's because they provide little else other than 3pt shooting. It's fine if one or two of your players are like that but when so many of your core players are liabilities, this is the result.

You gotta fire Sean Marks at this point. Wasted the first 2 years with Nash and now hes done the same with Vaughan.

Constant bad roster moves, this teams gonna have another losing streak where he will do nothing again

I don't even agree. Defense was solid all night.

Spurs shot badly. But you need to produce some type of offense. You can't literally miss every 3 pointer.

Are we watching the same game??? He did not get cooked on defense? He had to guard Poeltl mostly because he is the only one with size to do so. Whenever he defended Keldon Johnson, he actually forced him to use his left hand and miss shots. Only starter with a positive +/- speaks volumes. He has numerous flaws but please be honest and not just drive a narrative.

Swapping Kuzma for Ben is hilarious.

Spurs shot badly because they are a bad team with multiple bad/average shooters. We saw possessions where Joe Harris and Royce were getting blown buy off the dribble numerous times. Clax is an elite help defender/shot blocker right now and Ben also played good help D.

Phoenix will be another loss for sure. So will Utah/GS/Philadelphia.

Next realistic game we can win is Detroit. We will be a 6 seed at best once KD returns.

I agree Ben is a legit player but he needs to put the darn ball in the hoop sometime. Missed a open dunk, 2 easy layups and he has no moves on offense. He's good at everything else except scoring. I just wish he can put the ball in the hoop at least a little bit. But he had like 6 turnovers which is unacceptable but I don't put this loss all on him. We literally got absolutely nothing from Joe Harris.

My bad I misread what you are saying.

But yeah, saying Ben(best players on the floor for Nets?!) was the reason the team lost is hilarious.
