Our defense is sloppy and guys look lost on assignments. Guys are being left wide open. What were they doing all preseason in practice?

Neither Joe or Blake should be starting. Joe is a defensive sieve and Blake's shooting isn't going to cut it. Milsap came in and it was an immediate difference

I think Harris is fine starting. The bigger problem is Blake and Clax. Playing both ruins spacing and Blake is looking really slow out there. Claxton's conditioning is also subpar. He's so awful in transition, literally jogs back every time.

James Johnson playing over Bruce Brown or Bembry. Yuck.

Why no brown. This is bs. We need d and hustle and he is sitting on the bench.

Claxton says he wants to be a DPOY but he jogs back on defense and routinely loses on 50 50 balls and provides no interior defense. He just literally watched a driving lay up just now. He is a negative right now.

Steve Nash is a bottom 5 coach.

Claxton should of had played in the summer league. It’s pretty obvious that he did not work enough on conditioning .

Bruce Brown >>> Carter

3pt_chucker · Post #32 » by **3pt_chucker** » Sat Oct 23, 2021 12:29 am

Carter is so useless out there. Not a good playmaker, not hitting shots and is too small on defense against teams with any size.

MrDollarBills · Post #33 » by **MrDollarBills** » Sat Oct 23, 2021 12:30 am

No defense, and the offense doesn't generate any good shots.

This team is not winning anything with Nash at the helm. He is probably the worst coach in the league.

The lack of effort again from this team is pathetic. I know it’s second game of the season but this team is supposed to be a championship condensing team and they are playing like a JV team right now. Their defense doesn’t work and their offense isn’t clicking. No one can score except harden and Durant.

Sharcm1 · Post #35 » by **Sharcm1** » Sat Oct 23, 2021 12:31 am

And why is brown the odd man out.

It feels like the players and coaches are still in preseason. This lack of energy is just really bad.

Steve Nash is a really terrible basketball coach I still don’t understand how he even got that job but that is some thing that is incredibly difficult to overcome in the NBA even with star power

Blake sold that one.. lol

Nash is sucking the joy of this season away already :lol:

Thankfully it's only Game 2 but there is little evidence to suggest he'll be a better coach as the season progresses.

Wide open threes being given up.

This team isn't even fun to watch and we have two top 10 players
