So, what’s the point of signing James Johnson if we don’t use him in games like this?

Wtf?

Everyone's going to talk about rebounding but our offense has been DREADFUL all year. We're going nowhere if we don't have a top 3 offense. Right now we're at like 20th and definitely going down after tonight.

Part of it is Harden just playing awful but there are a lot of issues right now. We had trouble scoring on Charlotte and Washington - so this isn't a Miami thing.

Does Harden know the season has started?

His off-ball defensive awareness looks dreadful.

And what’s up with him using his hands to push offensive players back on drives? He would’ve had 2 charge calls if he would’ve simply dropped his hands and took the charge to the body instead of raising his hands and pushing them back.

Can't wait for the Trade Harden threads.

We haven't shot well from 3 in a single game this season since the season opener (where we shot over 50% against the Bucks). Offense will look dreadful as long as Harden keeps playing the way he has been and if we keep shooting from 3 like this. This is the worst time to not have Kyrie, I think he'd solve a lot of our offense issues right now.

A lot to gripe about so far this season, but I know better than to start worrying in October let alone before the new year.

He's been fine today. He should just never shoot inside the arc.

He's getting a lot of great looks that he was knocking down at high rate last season. Tonight, his 3pt shooting has been better but it's still not the Joe Harris of last year. And yeah, any shot he takes inside the 3 pt line, its been an automatic miss.

Critiquing the offense isn’t “worrying”. It’s just calling out what you see at the present moment.

Nash doesn’t seem to care about the beginning of the season, so I don’t think there’s need for major concern until we’re 15 or so games in and the problems we see now still persist.

OMG.. just one possession after another Nets keep giving up off rebounds. Ridiculous. Eagle just said Miami is leading 27-4 on second chance points

I love how every season we talk about our inability to rebound and the coaches talk about us fixing it with effort, and it never gets resolved lol.

I share most if not all the criticism, but on hot or cold streaks to start any season, I'll more than welcome others' criticism and praise before investing any of my own annoyances and even rages for the first few months.

Such an ugly game...and what looks like an inevitable loss...

It's like fixing the Nets' 3rd quarter woes since we've had from Jersey. :lol:

Millsap closing this game is horrible. Someone tell Nash this is a real game and not practice.

The coaching disparity in this game is HUGE

WHY IS MILLSAP STILL THERE?
