He didn’t pass to KD one possession and got benched for it.
Sounds about right. Good. He needs to learn to pick and choose his spots
I seriously hope that's not what happened. He scored on the possession on a great move. If we're benching Cam for being aggressive, we drafted the wrong guy.

The Nets' energy is terrible though. Again it's a preseason game but the team just doesn't look focused at all. I'm just concerned mainly about KD and Harden getting reps.

We got killed on turnovers and our points allowed was mostly due to the 27 turnovers. We saw it all last year. #5 in FG% against but among the worst in turnovers/points off turnovers and allowed alot of 2nd chance points. post season they were focus and protected the ball and all of a sudden our D looked great even with poor rebounding.
Cam looks good. im not worried about him being a black hole, thats who he is as a player. im cool if nash yanked him for not making the extra pass. coach out as much of it as you can but overall he is still gonna be a gunner
Love Carter. dude is a menace.
Claxton needs to play. it is alarming that even with LMA out claxton cant see minutes. he is basically theo pinson now. he has to play. its great to have elite spacing, but spacing doesnt matter if you have no one to take advantage of that space by scoring at/above the rim. wha good is spacing if its just our stars taking jumpers? you need at least 1 rim threat.

Nic was out with illness last night. I definitely think that he needs to play though.

No hate on LMA or Milsap, but they dont provide more value to this team then Claxton.
