We complained about thibs mins but he held guys out of practice and played at a slow pace so they could make games.

Mike browns practices and pace are already injuring key players... smfh.

Well the good news is now we know why suckporti was preparing for the start it wasn’t because Mitch was injured and brown refuses to go 5 out it’s because towns our starting 5 was questionable all along. So some good news. Take that sham.

assuming he wants to keep Yabu off the bench...I wonder if Diawara gets a start. THat would be wild...not sure anyone would have predicted that alongside Hukporti.

I honestly don't even think he's gonna be in the rotation. He rarely played in pre season

Well now that the season is over and the Nets will be getting the first of many lottery picks we are sending them in 2026, what’s the offseason strategy? Do we kick the tires on Giannis again

I think Yabu comes off the bench. We need some kind of size off the bench right now. I think Deuce gets the start, so Hulk, OG, Bridges, Deuce, and JB.

Depending on how both our season and the Bucks season goes we may be talking about Giannis at the deadline again.
