That's like kamaze level hate. I'm not sure he'd even go that far with Russell.
Its why I don't bother replying to him or arguing much with him, he's negative 95% of the time, and always goes in extremes when it comes to his opinions. Dude can't have a balanced opinion.


Give it a try you might be surprised.
Wasn't talking about you really, but I think you qualify too with your D Lo hate. I barely have anything positive to say about D Lo and even I think you go over the top.

It's only October 22nd. Give it time. :lol:


How'd my name get into this?

The coach wants LeVert to be a two way player.


We're just busting your chops my dude :)

MDB admitted DLO was hard to watch as all of you should if you're being honest.


Russell has been very inconsistent. I like that he's shooting the three ball well but the turnovers and wild inconsistency from quarter to quarter is very frustrating to watch. It's only been 3 games and I'm rooting for him to turn the corner but his PER is in single digits right now. He needs to play better, period.

Yeah it's important because that is literally he's only useful skill.. elite pt shooting.

He HURTS us when playing and has been playing MAJOR minutes. Never said Faried was the answer, just that he gives us someone more mobile/athletic next to the Fro so why not give it a try?


Faried is a terrible defender though. He'd provide relief on the glass but he's not going to stop the Nets from bleeding points.

And frankly, I think the turnovers are a bigger problem than Dudley getting major mins or the team's bad defense in general. If we keep losing the turnover battle by obscene margins we are going to be getting beat downs every time we face a playoff team.

Scapegoating one player when there are obvious issues across the board isn't going to solve anything. Jarrett Allen, Caris, Russell, Spencer and Joe Harris have been a collective turnover machine through 3 games. How many TOs has Dudley committed so far?

zero.


to that point, our transition defense is a weakspot, and those ive ball turnovers have turned into alot of easy points for the other team. cut those turnovers out and our D will look much better


Agreed. The game versus Indiana is probably a lot closer if you cut out the ridiculous amount of turnovers.

This team does not value the ball. Even Spencer has become sloppy and he was usually the best at taking care of the ball. Kenny needs to start putting his foot down.

With Napier coming back, hopefully he can help to break this ridiculousness going on in the backcourt.
