WTF is Tyrese Martin?

The guy is looking prime Ray Allen out there lol. Unstoppable from three, 30 points already. No one expected that performance.

Get in the ass of the Lakers and then get smoked by a bunch of second tier dudes in BKN. What the hell, man? Can this team not string together wins when they matter and when they're needed?

Cheeks getting clapped
SHAZAM!

Suns traded Mikal Bridges, Cam Johnson, Jae Crowder and 4 1st round picks and a swap so some Vegas Bookies would like us.

The Nurk minutes in the 2nd quarter and the early 3rd minutes crushed us and we couldn’t get out of the hole we dug ourselves in. We need him to stop trying to imitate KD.

“Suns traded Mikal Bridges, Cam Johnson, Jae Crowder and 4 1st round picks“

^^^ this right here is why we should rebuild ASAP!!! cause we aren’t going anywhere with such a dysfunctional team. The faster the rebuild the better. Clean the entire house starting with princess Booker. He’s not a serious winner and will never be a first option. Get rid of his azz and rebuild the right way.

The Nets played a great game, full court defense all game long with outstanding 3p shooting. Not every game is gonna be like that for them, but they were successful on this one because we couldn't stop him on offense. 127 points without Cam Thomas is crazy.

On a back-to-back they surprised us, I didn't like that Budenholzer didn't play smallball until the last 7-8 minutes of the game. This game screamed KD/O'Neale at the 5.

Could make a myriad of excuses for this team like the 2nd night of a B2B, playing down the competition, other team surprised us....none of them are any good. The Nets are a team that doesn't do much well other than shoot a lot of 3's and make a lot of 3's and they did that while not having almost 18% of their 3PA on the court. On the other hand, we're one of the better teams at limiting 3PT attempts and they absolutely roasted us from the perimeter tonight.

Even if we didn't have a poor 3rd quarter, this was just a poor showing from the team given the talent disparity.

Not.so.easy.

I read Beal is hurt again, KD was limping lol.

The ceiling of this team seems to be limping into the playoffs, make a series competitive and get bounced early.

Something was clearly amiss when Ben freakin Simmons was parading to the basket all he wanted early.

Turnovers, lazy defense, cant stay in front of Schroder, no energy. B2Bs suck. Also no excuse for not being ready.

Hey man , if I gotta be honest it was sight of relief when Nets traded Mikal to the Knicks , he was amazing for the Nets initial 17 games after the trade , but then next season he was resembling who he is now on the Knicks ( role player without his good defense really )

I know we have to trade Cam Johnson and surprisingly this is harder to swallow, I got to like him as a player , I hope Nets do right by him and he goes to any contender not named Celtics or Knicks , he might even end up back in PHX but you guys prob very limited as a trading partner

That’s the thing with the Nets , we not supposed to be this good especially on the west coast trip , missing Cam Thomas , yet we keep winning , two things is true

We are very bad tank team

Maybe is to early to judge HC after 19 games , but so far Jordi is helluva HC , best we got since Kenny Atkinson for sure

Read on Twitter



The Nets are 9W-11L for a reason. They did not have Cam Thomas, that’s true, but the strength of the team is their pressing defense and 3p shooting...It’s working pretty well all season long for a young team.

I mean, I agree that it was a disgusting loss and we have more talent than them BUT we can't act like we lost to the Tanking Sixers from 2015.

We are gonna have some unexpected losses here and there, the important thing is to learn about it and reduce the number of it.

How many of those wins did they have without Cam Thomas (left hamstring), Bojan Bogdanovic (left foot), Nic Claxton (lower back injury management), Noah Clowney (left ankle sprain), Day’Ron Sharpe (left hamstring strain) and Jalen Wilson (illness)?

This is probably the worst loss for any team so far this season. Stop trying to justify it.
