Ziaire's return game!

We need to wear the Nets out in the first half. They had a long game last night.

Another really disappointing loss. I wish that the organization would be more transparent with respect to injuries and minute limitations, if any. As it stands, it makes no sense to play Ja, JJJ, and Bane less than 30 mpg if they are able to play.

Running a 10-11 man rotation with the goal of wearing the opponent out is a tactic for when you have less talent than the opponent, but we have 3 guys who are top 10-15 at their position - we have the talent to play straight up. I think that the rotations and playing guys in short bursts are keeping guys from getting in rhythm and leading to things like Laravia taking too many shots.

Yeah this rotation with low minutes for our main guys is killing us.
