And Jordan makes it impossible to start off string against any athletic team. We don't get calls and God forbid Nash motherfokked a ref up and down for once in his young career.

And I'll end with this baseball bat to an expired equestrian, you can say we don't execute well and aren't disciplined, but I've never in my life seen a contender with this amount of star power get such a wretched whistle.

I was shocked when he took that deal but he looks worth every penny

Harden's refusal to drive with the bench unit hurts us a lot.

Why are we so **** ing slow? I saw that Bey was getting the ball like 3 seconds before the Nets did apparently. But there goes Shamet just casually moseying along and putting his hand up after the ball already went through the hoop.

And this is the reason why we can't start as slow as we do. We can hang close, but if the other team goes on a run we're back to where we started. So **** tired of the same **** happening again and again.

Harden will keep walking away with pretty stat lines, but he's been terrible consistently whenever he leads the bench unit. Keeps deferring over and over again despite him looking to score is clearly our best bet.

Ya know...if we had adequately sized mobile bigs who could actually stay in front of their big man counterpart, maybe we won't feel the need to collapse on the paint as much, so when the ball is inevitably kicked back out for a 3, our defenders are close by.

Why does Harden hunt for calls so much? He was home free. Griffin had given up on the play and he hesitates and looks back to see if Griffin would foul him. Come on...

This team is just pathetic defensively. A terrible combination of low BBIQ, small, and soft. KD helps a lot when he's playing but that's just a band-aid on an all-time bad defensive unit. No idea what the answer is but these problems have been going on for a long time. The players and coaching staff are failing. There's ZERO excuse for being this bad on that end.

I agree, I'm tired of watching him defer, fall asleep defensively, and the frequency of bad turnovers. He has plenty of good moments as a Net already, but for the most part, he's not performing anywhere close to that Houston level.

James Harden with a triple double watch, but he's played awful imo.

Kyrie's shooting is starting to eerily remind me of how he played with the shoulder impingement :no: :no:
