This is embarrassing. We seem to have lost all sense of how to play basketball. But, we are tied with 12 minutes left and the ball. Now it is time to get it done.

Anthony Edwards is a ballhog during a 5-on-4. Just abysmal, I am exceptionally unimpressed with him this game.

I was worried about in the Nets preseason game, and he is proving I was right to worry. Nowell has been wide open and Ant won’t look for him.

Plus all those pre season games as well.
Something is wrong with him. Maybe top 25 got into his head much? Thank god for Gobert this game

I think he is trying to shoot himself into rhythm. The problem is that we don’t have a big lead. If we did you can blow a few possessions. If not you just need to move the ball.

He's also a clumsy oaf! He needs lots of work to say the least. Inside game is lacking. We'll still be OK. He's not as good as I envisioned. Of course, it's just one game.

I hope I'm wrong!

wtf? Stop making excuses. His turnovers, dribbling the hell out of the ball and missed bunnies have nothing to do with new guys.

KAT incapable of passing under pressure. My god, just pass it back. If there are four people on you, there are open guys on the perimeter.

Timothée Chalamet has been killing us with the long ball.
