People are way too quick to give up on Sharpe. He's been more productive thus far than Claxton was at his age. He's a young, late first big. They take time to develop.

Sharpe gives the much needed hustle in rebounding. He also has 4 on the offensive end.

Look at what happens when Cam J and DFS actually make their 3s. JV isn't the problem; it's the roster.

JV is the biggest problem for this team
He preached several times ball have to be in Dinwiddie hands , look what happens when we actually move the ball
He is **** slow learner , only took him 20 games to realize this

This roster aint nothing but tryouts who can/should be kept or shipped out. This offseason we see what our real team looks like with a roster that has player that make sense.

HIs upside is higher than Claxton. He has a knack for getting offensive rebounds and had shown some signs of knocking down 3s. A unicorn skillset that would be perfect for modern NBA basketball

Idk if his overall upside is higher than clax maybe on the offensive side but they could possibly be able to play together if day get thats 3 to real consistent. That would unlock somethings lineup wise

Dinwiddle and Bridges had no trust in Cam J and DFS due to their bricking and it forced them to hog the ball and take bad shots. Now that they are making 3s, they are more willing to make the right team play as the offense is opened up

Yeah let’s blame on the roster , like it was Sumner and Yuta fault they were glued to the bench last 30 games and all f a sudden they produce

Again, there's zero reason to finger point. This is a f*cked up situation. The roster has no consistent playmaking at guard and half the roster is new in midseason.
Tonight from the mid 2nd onward, they pushed the ball, moved the ball, hit 3s, and defended crisply. That's the only way this roster can win games, but i expect tomorrow against Orlando the team reverts back to bad habits and bricked threes.

Re: Nets vs Heat to avoid the play-in Sat Mar 25
how the heck we beat them by 30? lol they only scored 30 pts in the 2nd half, they don't deserve a playoff spot. Sumner got some good mins in, idk why coach don't play him more. And it seems like we've found our backup center.

Re: Nets vs Heat to avoid the play-in Sat Mar 25
I'm not selling high on Nic Claxton. I think we need to get another big that can space the floor next to him.

If we make our 3s we win. It not rocket science.
Blame JV all you want. The guys need to hit shots.

This is pretty much a make or break team, if we don't hit our 3s it's going to be tough to win. DFS and Cam J bricks alot of shots, but then has a game where they make a bunch, they're just too inconsistent and unreliable. Bridges has been really consistent but everybody else hasn't.

Guys can’t make shots if Dinwiddie pounds the rock for 20 seconds every possession
It’s not rocket science , right ?

And the ball needs to be moved and pushed. Sumner needs to play consistent minutes.
