Re: GT: Nets Vs Pacers 7:30 EST
KD has face that I never saw it before… like where am I loosing time at the end of my prime…
Ben is awful…
Irving is great player 1 on 1 but he dont make other players better… Harden was one that have done that 2 seasons ago

Why even play Ben at this point? He brings nothing to the table.
Rather have Claxton play in his place. Ben should be coming off the bench and be nothing more than a 15 minute per night player

Never seen a premier defender get blown by as much as Simmons.

Re: GT: Nets Vs Pacers 7:30 EST
Irving is great on offence and very bad on deffence
Ben is bad on deffence and terrible on offence
KD has 5bl and 2 stl and is so frustrated by effort of other players
joe looks like washed player
Mills also…

Re: GT: Nets Vs Pacers 7:30 EST
I'm still convinced that Ben is still feeling the effects of his previously injured back. He moves like an old man and lacks athleticism

Re: GT: Nets Vs Pacers 7:30 EST
KD's body language says it all. Expect either a Nash firing or a KD trade request...

Re: GT: Nets Vs Pacers 7:30 EST
You guys realize that Simmons on his best day…wasn’t much better than what we got tonight, right?
He’s a really bad defender when he’s plugged in at center, and he’s still susceptible to blow bys even when he’s playing on the perimeter. His effort is just straight up lacking most of the time as well.
And offensively…jeez what a tragedy.
He’s a worse version of Rondo. At least Rondo had the occasional explosion here and there. Simmons is just garbage.

Re: GT: Nets Vs Pacers 7:30 EST
Bens gotta come off the bench now. Hes just gotta.. Let him win the minutes if he cares so much.
Its just stupid to play him with Claxton (no spacing) just so he could hand off to durant/Irving.
Also, this team is worse than the Lakers. At least the Lakers are good at defense. This team is atrocious at defense and mediocre in offense.
Not making a change and doing the exact same thing knowing the turnout is insanity.

Re: GT: Nets Vs Pacers 7:30 EST
I think Simmons at the 5 is total BS. We can't play Simmons & Clax together. Ben needs to come off the bench

Nets gotta blow it up or give another coach a shot.
Didn’t think it was wise for them to go into the season as is, but I understand the decision of not wanting to blow it up that early.
But at this point you’ve got to be concerned about what the ceiling is even if they get better. More than likely this isn’t a championship team as constructed. Even if Nash is fired Ben is still a big liability and would be targeted by other teams game plans.

This won’t happen right away but Ben needs to be out of the rotation.

Re: GT: Nets Vs Pacers 7:30 EST
Blaming anyone besides Nash is comical at this point.
Expecting Simmons to fix a defense with no direction is impossible.
This team's defensive scheme has consistently been to overhelp and leave 3 point shooters open.
How many games will we have with the opposing team shooting 50% from 3?
Trading KD/Kyrie at this juncture is still not wise. If anything do it at the deadline.
Nash needs to be fired NOW.
Our defense is not only bad. Its MUCH WORSE than last year. We are utterly clueless vs every team.
Hes been here too long and hes been awful at every turn.
Bring in Udoka, Dantoni, Terry Stots, Quin Snyder, Jerry Stackhouse. ANYONE.
Just get me out of this nightmare. Fire him tonight.

Our defense isn't any better when Ben sits.
There is no way s team with this talent should be the worst defense in NBA history.
You cannot overcome horrific coaching.
