If only the Illegitimate Son of Jarred Jeffries Face played any defense this game

Also, if he made a few of his first half bricks against Boston, maybe the moment is broken a little bit.

F*ck this guy. I'm already waiting for his contract to end.

Yeah he went back to his old form and the shot looked smooth as usual

His defense was awful though so we're not out of the woods yet.

It was awful but why was he on Tatum and OG on Brown or Holiday? That made absolutely no sense to me.

Seriously, what was he doing in the offseason? Did he not realize we need him to take & make open shots? I don't get it because he's capable...

I didn't understand it either. That was a baffling decision

We lost Divo, who was the master of off ball movement to create offense out of nothing, we have to get everyone but esp Mikal to be quick quick decisive when they get the ball: drive, pass, or shoot, but don't hold the damn ball !! Holding the ball, dribbling aimlessly for 2-3 secs and looking for someone open to pass to kill because it helps the defense, OG and esp Josh seem to be the main culprits for these.

Off the ball, relocate to open space to get better passing angle for the ball handler to pass to.

Immediately when you get the ball: drive, pass, or shoot, but don't hold the damn ball even for 2 secs!!! This helps the offense more fluid.

They had KD, Kyrie and James Harden and they didn’t even make it to the Eastern Conference Finals. They also have zero players on their roster that would be worth building next Flagg.

I’m not saying the end result for the nets was great, it was underwhelming. But they had a team that should have won it all in 2021 if they didn’t get hurt.

And they gave up a total of 3 picks and 3 swaps plus Jarrett Allen and Caris LaVert to get Harden to add to Durant and Irving and ended up flipping the 3 guys for 12 1sts and 2 swaps.

:lol:
it's refreshing to see you in midseason form after the 1st game

as for tobias jeffries he is going to be a nice player for us. it's just he will never live up to the package they gave up for him or the contract he is about to sign. i don't know if he will be what we need him to be. which is going to make fans hate on a player that is actually kinda nice. it's another case of management abuse.
