I was prepared to trade AG to Phoenix or Sacramento for their picks to get him in the draft.

That said - I don’t think Paolo would fit well with him at the moment.


Bro we took Obi Toppin ahead of him so.. :lol:

Hali would absolutely fit well... There's no spacing issue and hali can actually get him the ball... Paolo would benefit well from a player like haliburton

My dunce cap vote goes straight to Cole since he decided to played like trash in his hometown. He only posted 4 turnovers but i swear it felt worse, i lost count on his bricks but those were a good bit too.

If he isn't scoring, he doesn't bring much to the table. The scoring hasn't really been there since the Portland game.

So aggravating watching a **** coach like Vaughan beat us…

He was trash for us a decade ago. Like, the worst I've ever seen.

He's been okay for the Nets by all accounts, though.


I think he’s just way better than Coach Mo… Coach Mo may be a man of impeccable character but he is not a good Xs and Os coach and it is clear…

Everybody played a bad game, except Franz and Goga. Cole has to make those buckets and Suggs, man, he really needed to finish that dunk. We are a young team. Tonight is a big lesson for us. Everybody said tonight was going to be a test for this young team. But we failed.

Let's see what this team is made of when we play Chicago tomorrow

We are not asking for him to save this team, we’re asking for him to get reps and experiences so that he can make these shots when it matters. He might not be good defensively but at least let a shooter on the court to do the one thing this team cannot do.


He's still a theoretical shooter. A curiosity, not a stopgap. I see requests for him to play when we're sucking as a way to get back in the game, but without any regard to if he can actually do secondary stuff if he's not hitting shots.. which is why Ingles will play over him.

If we had any open slot with easy minutes for him, of course I'd like to see him.

They need minutes to improve their game. We can watch Black shoot like he does but not give Jett and Houstan minutes?

This teams next step is to learn how to play with a lead.... What we used to do with Dwight is as soon as we got a lead we would put the whole team in jail.... Just feed Dwight and let the team foul him to oblivion.... Difference is though we had good enough shooters to keep teams honest

I didn't see it as that bad of a performance. They were in control of that game. I think they lost when Suggs had to sub out early in the 3rd because of that injury and when they had to play that stretch of basketball without P5 and Wagner.

They had big issues defending their ball penetration off the PnR. Their guards were going straight at Goga. It was a concerted effort for the ball handler to attack him.

I know we’re young and it’s early in the season, but for the most part our offense lacks organization.

I think Jett will be fine but man, I knew Hawkins shot was pure and there was an easy role for him in the NBA. Had some size concerns though defensively.

I'd sell both. In done having kids anyway


At this point I'd give both nuts and the fleshy patch they reside in for anything helpful

Jett wasn't on anyone's radar and had terrible college stats. I'm very ready to dump on the pick if he can't get playing time and when he does can't produce.

He had good stats before his ankle injury and can put it on the floor more than Hawkins, but he's also not getting as much of a shot yet so it's hard to say who will be better.
