You need to pay attention to the market than.

Spot up shooters being unplayable lately and teams trying to load on stretch bigs.

Unplayable? Yea his unplayable if his sharing backcourt with another 6'2 guard like kai. You put him on the mavs his damn near starting. The market loves shooting, its not easy to get 40% shooters

Its the Pistons man.

Arguably the worst team in the NBA. Without their best player.

You cant lose. There is no exuse.

Our defense was beyond pathetic.

Respect. Our defense was trash, we did look like we had tire legs tho

Team has too many trash contracts in Ben (35m), Joe(20m), and patty (MLE)

I didn't think it was possible but Marks might have created a worse roster than last season. At least last season had Harden but now we're stuck with bad contracts on a team thats supposed to compete

It screaming our coaches are trash. When people will get through their heads a lot will and can change.

Just look how much difference it made moving from Trash to JV ( who is also horrible ) and how it affected team. We need legit coach who can handle Kyrie.

This is why I'm about to flip on Marks soon. Not getting Ime was/is huge mistake. You just had to kick tires to see what's good.

I mean this guy managed to fix Saltic locker room problems and take them to another level. Yet we care about PR? With all we have going on this team with these players.

Please help me to understand what I'm missing here.

KD? KYRIE and Ben alone should warranted him this gig.


Sean Marks is a below average GM. It's been this way for awhile. I have no faith he will make the right moves at the deadline.

Bad loss, our defense was non existent. Joe Harris literally does nothing and gives up an instant AND1 foul to the opposing players. Wish we would of kept Bey, he's a legit player and the kind of guy we need for our team right now. It's pretty much just Kyrie and Claxton out there right now. Sumner had a career game but it went to waste, Seph had a career game last night and it also went to waste. Nobody else is stepping up so we need a spark, get some new players and some young legs.

This is the game where we should of played Duke and Edwards, Idk why Vaughn doesn't play the young fresh legs especially on a back 2 back and especially against a young team like Detroit who has a bunch of young energizer bunnies. Guys couldn't keep up on defense after fighting last night. Edwards and Duke couldn't of been worse than Joe Harris. These type of games we should not be losing and will come back to bite us.

What a dumb fuc*.

If you had any clue, it's chain reaction to what Tsai did.

Want to bark on Marks, at least give us all a favor and follow what Lewis say.

As of now, that pick is owed to Utah. Traded for Royce O'Neale.
New York said Mitchell wasn't the guy you trade the sink for, then they traded it for Mikal, lol.

At home against the Pistons with no KD.. the team drops 122 points, and you can't even score ONE bucket!? Hes gotta go


Every time he gets the ball close to the basket he tries to move away from it. He is just too soft to be considered a serious player.

We need 2 way players. Ben is basically Andre Roberson at this point.

He can't play when he is just a nothing on offense. I'd rather just get a 2 way wing who can offer some shooting and decent defense.

And now he just quits in the middle of the game cause of random knee soreness. Hes not built for the NBA. Get him off my team.


He has no value left.

Simmons clowned Embiid on defence last night so hardly soft

When are you guys going to realize that he's physically shot right now?

It's been months and I have seen him attempt exactly ONE running dunk

I have been there as has Michael Porter Jr (not to compare us btw)

He's months away & the Nets have no choice but to ride it out until his body & brain are right again

The roster make up was fine when KD was in the line up. With him gone, i feel like Joe, Royce, Ben, and even Yuta/Warren are so much less effective. Sumner too. Kyrie can score and he's played his ass off as of late but he just doesn't make anyone around him better like Durant did when healthy. KD was the captain of the defense and the ball was snapping when he was on the court due to the gravity he drew.

But Marks needs to make some moves. We need another big man.

Oof. Can we have that pick, and Bruce Brown back, please?

Not that O'Neale's been bad, but...

This! We need a young big too, not a slow immobile one. Naz Reid is that type. And we have to cut some dead weight. Harris is garbage, Warren is sluggish and just isn’t himself. Oh and I forgot, I AM DONE WITH BEN SIMMONS.

What point? Your saying if seth hits the open market he would be forced to play in one of those Israel leagues,cuz he so unplayable. Seth shooting makes him an asset alone

Without KD you see the deficiencies in the roster. There are a few too many players that need to be carried. Claxton, O'Neale, and Yuta are really the only players that have consistently contributed on both ends.

Another issue is that the team is relying on Curry (defense) and Warren (hasn't played in two years) as the secondary scorers. I think this area needs to be addressed quickly to not only help take pressure off Kyrie right now but also because teams like the Bucks and Celtics are both easily capable of limiting the efficiency of KD and Kyrie - you're then left with what? They need another scorer to take pressure off them, right now.

This is why I mentioned Hayward a while back as you can add enough min. contracts next to Harris to make a trade work. He's a 6'7 well established three level scorer that can handle and make plays for others. He's having a mediocre season but that's also the only reason a Harris trade could be possible.

Schedule is looking heavy and the Knicks/Heat are playing better so play-in could be a conversation again. Moves need to be made.
