It's called tanking. See Celtics last season.

Honestly, based on what he's been saying and how he looks after each loss, I don't believe that tanking is what he's working for (at least not intentionally).

I'd seriously appreciate some nasty accident for him. And if we don't joke about that, then I'm serious.

I don't think Zeke is tanking. I think he's just clueless and stubborn.

If you can do one thing good, and one thing only, Isiah will want you.
Yes we have talent, but we have nothing but one dimensional talent.
We have NO TWO WAY PLAYERS. We have some good scorers, some good defenders, but noone who does both. We put our scorers out there, it becomes a layup line against us. We put our defenders out there, we can't make a layup or tip in. It's incredibly frustrating! (':banghead:')

Even as a Nets fan, but more a fan of the game, I'd appreciate some emotion from him other than a smile or blank face.
