This is brutal basketball. No leadership. No direction. No defense.
I'll keep watching... but it might be on mute or shut off by the 3rd quarter.

Maybe youre right :lol:

Still feels like it would just delay the inevitable though. Kyrie was going to do something dumb and force his way out.

It's funny we keep playing switch defense, even though there's no need to do that with "good" defenders.

This season is done boys. Kyrie and Joe Tsai destroyed everything. Dark times.

It's a talent league. It's going to be a long time before a team can **** up a situation like we have over the last 12 months.


This. The NBA isn't complicated. You lose talent, you lose games.

In an alternate universe where Marks gets a top prospect in return for James Harden, we would be in way better shape. But he took on Simmons when anyone with a brain knew was a bad fit and an overrated defensive player.

I've stayed quiet and away from here because I didn't want my negativity to bring any of you down because it's really hard being a fan of this franchise. But, I'm done as a fan of this team. I've been done for months now mentally because of Kyrie and his antisemitism putting a stain on this season, but the crap we've seen since the break has really made the decision easy for me. No offense to Bridges or Johnson, but they're nowhere near as good as Suns fans made them out to be, and that's alright. It's not their fault. This is a horrible situation and if I'm Cam Johnson I take the first offer sheet that comes my way this summer.

Do yourselves a favor, all of you. Turn this sh*t off. There's so much more outside of the Nets that you can find to entertain you. I haven't watched a full game since the break and I would advise the rest of you to follow suit. Do not support this with your time or money. Don't. This franchise doesn't deserve any of us. Not me, not you, not the Brooklyn Brigade, not Mr. Whammy, the fans on the subreddit, twitter, NetsDaily, etc.

F*ck Kyrie, f*ck KD, f*ck Joe Tsai and his genocide money, f*ck his meddling wife, and f*ck Sean Marks.

I'd rather deal with Kyrie missing 50% of games, but still get to watch KD ball.

This current team is full blown 12 win season rebuild. They are awful.

To make things worse, they extended JV when there was no need to do that. He's an average coach at best. Basically our modern version of Lionel Hollins. Full circle friends.

Watching Din dribble the ball for 22 secs is bad for my health. It really feels like reliving a nightmare.

If Marks is half the man I thought he was, he should sign resignation at the half time

The blame should be placed on the players. The stars demanded a trade at the deadline and gave Marks no leverage and he had to accept crappy deals

This is all Tsai.

He was hands on with the KD talks in the offseason so he knew exactly what a deal-breaker for KD was. It was KD and Kyrie are a package deal and if you don't pay Kyrie then KD won't be a Net.

Tsai made his choice, to me Marks was placed in a no win situation. I've got other criticism of Marks but this situation isn't one of them.

F@ck KD too. If he ever cared about the team and the fans, he should've been man enough to demand a trade right away after Kyrie left for Dallas.

Instead, we received a package of a chucking Dumbwiddie/DFS combo, instead of younger players to develop...

Marks should anticipate this scenario moment he was dealing Kyrie to Dallas , right ?

What he thought ? He gonna say to Kd , now you got DFS and Dinwiddie and let’s go win a chip?

Fu#k Durant but also fu#k Marks/Tsai

Marks is not a bright GM and lacks communication.

Remember during the off-season when he traded for Royce with a pick the Nets had? KD immediately requested a trade like an hour later and we would have wasted a pick had KD not decided to stay last minute.

Marks made the DFS/Dinwiddie trade because he though he could trade for the pieces to keep Durant. The dumbass didn't read the market well enough and didn't anticipate that other teams weren't shopping their stars. He immediately realized his mistake and traded Durant.

Its just negligence and incompetence by Marks over and over again for the past few seasons. His roster construction is ****, he keeps hiring **** coaches and worst of all makes horrible, horrible trades. All signs also seem to point to him having no real relationship with any of the star players either. I have no clue why he isn't on the hot seat.
