That was a travel in Ja. He went up to shoot. Didn’t get the call and landed before he released the ball. It’s called a travel. These refs

Not insurmountable, but man, we need Mills and Durant to shoot way better.

Not sure why the obsession with James Johnson? He kinda sucks...wouldn't Millsap be better? Or one of the young guys?

Good to see Griffin getting some confidence back in his shot.

This feels like the Miami game. Nets getting destroyed inside, just one second chance basket after another and outhustled overall. But who knows, maybe 3 straight home loses will set fire under Nash's ass.

Durant is having a rough shooting night. He will probably go on a run to even it out second half. It’s like the team is morphing into the big 3 offense without him there yet. Anticipatory playing

I've seen little of Morant until this game, but man, that cat sure looks and plays bigger than his listed height of 6'3" in sneaks.

Unless KD + Harden + Mills get hot, we're losing this game by 30.

I really just can't believe what I'm seeing. We went deeper into our bench when the whole team was out with COVID!

Pre-COVID - Nash was playing Cam Thomas + Duke minutes at guard to take some pressure off the stars. And it worked. Now they're out of the rotation?

Edwards proved he could be a big spark with his shooting + athleticism and defense and he's back to DNPs?

KD literally has 3 guys shading him every time he touches the ball.

I don't know if Nash is trying to prove some point to Marks about how little shooting we have but something weird is going on. Last year people were knocking Nash because he was obsessed with shooting. Now we only play 3 guys that can shoot. It's strange. And I don't think Nash'll be the coach much longer if this keeps up. Kyrie and Joe being out is no excuse.

Johnson is good situationally, not for consistent minutes. You can say the same about Aldridge. Millsap is washed. I'd stick with a smaller lineup, KD at the 4, Claxton starting and Griffin/Aldridge backing up based on matchups. Johnson, Brown or a double big lineup can be used when KD is resting.

You could be right. I think something is up in the locker room. Nash is too smart to not know about the spacing issue. It's weird these past few games.

This game is horrifying. We just lost two games in humiliating fashion and we still have no pride or effort.

How the **** can you leave the entire perimeter unguarded and still fail to get a rebound? Nets are playing like a 60 loss team in their last week of the season.

I honestly don't think it's an effort thing...we look so sluggish and tired. Like, Durant especially, he's not really moving the way he typically does.

The story of this team so far: rebounding and turnovers. It's hard to win games when you have 10-20 less possessions. In the last few games they rebounded well, but made a ton of turnovers. This is the other way around...

Coaching can only do so much.

We have **** James Harden Kevin Durant. The guy on this team don't care enough right now. Theyre willing to lose to every good team that comes here.

This is just embarrassing.

I don't even want to hear about effort when our stars have to play 41 minutes or turnovers when we literally play no shooters.

lol. whatever.

At the end of the day, this is regular season. It's all pointless anyway. We're getting way too worked up over meaningless regular season games that don't mean anything.

No space on offense, no energy on defense. If they don't care, I don't. Turning this off
