The one thing i like out of this is letting Kyrie handle the ball instead of KD.

This is still a shameful performance

I hate this team.

What's the point of having all those shooters out there when nobody is moving off the ball or is capable of threatening the rim.

I just can’t understand why we keep blowing leads. What the hell can this team do to fix this?

Def need Ben his playmaking and defense is needed, only real pg we got on this roster. One good thing about today game Kd was deferring to kyrie to bring the ball up and handle on top of the key. KD should not be tryna go full point forward.

Somehow, Nic's free throw shooting keeps getting progressively worse.

Well we won but we can never make it easy on ourselves smh. Curry shot great after I said we should let him take a few games off and let patty play, I just wish he was more consistent with it. He'll drop 20 today then 2 pts next game. Seems like Joe is getting his shot back. We have to give some credit to Sumner and Morris, they give us a nice boost off the bench on most games and Morris corner 3 shot is automatic. Kyrie played more elusive today. Let's keep the win streak going pls

Because KD and Kyrie abandon team basketball in the 4th.

yea i don't get this, we play beautiful basketball in the 1st quarter and 1st half of games then we come outta half time looking like we forgot how to play team ball and abandon what got us a big lead. This is a reoccurring thing. We was smoking Boston in the 1st quarter then collapsed too. Whatever it is we need to fix this. We need to Play 3 full quarters of great ball so we can give KD some rest finally. Hopefully when Ben and Yuta come back and TJ Warren gets his footing back this won't be a problem but we should of smoked this team.

I mean was offense really the issue?

The defense collapsed. Our defense is never consistent.

It came on towards the end of the 4th. But before that is was beyond terrible.

Our defense is going to be our downfall if we can’t stay consistent. I guess the team knows it has to play great D against teams like the Celtics and Bucks but seem to get lackadaisical against the lesser teams. Make no mistake, the Nets CAN beat anyone, including the Cvs and Bucks, but it’s all about the defensive effort. The offense is ridiculously good; I’m happy we at least got to the four seed…… For now. Hopefully we get the 3 seed minimum. I would rather play the Bucks second round than Boston. Boston is just clicking on all cylinders. KD/Nets have a tall order.

Be careful what you wish for........When we were up by 20, I was thinking this sucks it is so boring. Then the lead went down to 2 points and I was like...this really sucks. A win is a win. But there are glaring holes on both ends of the floor that we need to address.

Now that JV is our head coach, do we have a someone in charge of the defense?

I'll say this much:

There is zero reason why Cam should see any minutes while Edmond Sumner is on the roster. Sumner is the superior player and its not even close.
