I cannot stress enough how much this Pacers team sucks. They are already bad. And they have injuries.

They are playing a back to back where they just got beat bad by the Knicks.

And somehow they are playing like the Showtime Lakers vs us with Kyrie.

Team that playing second night of b2b. Team that has 3 10 day contract players, they literally just came couple days ago.

Just a January slump with no motivation. This won't be a big deal long-term.

The myth that half time Kyrie is going to blow in those Clow faces and I'm here to rob it in :lol:

I should've bookmarked hot takers post for my sig.

Lance was hot. Like human torch hot.
Sabonis and Turner screens and rolls are killing us. Dislodging. We worried about the roll. Switching is leading to mismatches with them. Weak side has to help and it gave up spot up drive and kicks. Their PnR game we are losing to every option it can produce.
Don’t see the 2nd half continuing like this. Switching perimeter on big isn’t working.

Really not sure why this team is in love with switch everything defense no matter what. The defense has looked best early on this season where drop coverage was the base, with a bit of switching mixed in based on matchup. Everytime the team does this, they get shredded on the boards and allow tons of open shots.

Or at the very least, play someone like Kessler or Bembry more with the Big3. Any lineup with Harden, Kai, Mills is a total disaster unless they are shooting lights out from 3.

I could be very much wrong but it would be nice to at least see Nash try things during the game. Team is so god dang predictable.

Its a miracle we even are in this game the way we played.

Need to find a way to wake up. Has to start with the players.

Griffin is so washed. He was good last season. Idk what happened to him. He can't do anything anymore.

Right now we are giving up easy points at the rim with Sabonis killing us. LMA is a liability defensively against this team and so is Griffin. They draw Durant out then dump into their big. We need to fix the defensive problem first and foremost. We need a better big that can rebound and block.

Get D'Antoni back in here. This team has no clue duh F*** they doing. Dumb F*** like Kyrie should be send back home and real issue should be fixed, which is coaching.

Other teams have talent too.

3pt_chucker · Post #72 » by **3pt_chucker** » Thu Jan 6, 2022 1:55 am

LMA and Blake has never play even 1 good minute on the floor together as Net players. Nash even said so himself last season, yet he keeps doing it... WTF

I might be done caring this much until a coaching change happens. Save myself from even more disappoint. This guy is just holding this team back. League is too good nowadays to just rely on talented players.

It's the dog days of the regular season and now Kyrie has to be re-incorporated. The Nets will get out of this slump soon.

Nah you right. Only teams with great chemistry can get away with switching throughout the game. Bad coached team like us give up 120 pts like candy and that's vs 10 day contract players, real G will obliterate us.

Conspiracy theory says players are tanking the games to get Nash fired. Assuming this is correct, book this game and next game with Bucks as a L. Whatever is needed to get him fired.

I don't even know where to start. I'm starting to wonder if you watching same games now.

Hello Brooklyn · Post #77 » by **Hello Brooklyn** » Thu Jan 6, 2022 1:59 am

Claxton really just missed a wide open rebound. LMAO.

Earlier Duke stopped out of bounds. LMA couldn't inbound the ball.

This team literally doesn't care.

It’s like no effort whatsoever

Sharcm1 · Post #79 » by **Sharcm1** » Thu Jan 6, 2022 2:01 am

Put the rookies in. Omg I can’t take this

GTR11 · Post #80 » by **GTR11** » Thu Jan 6, 2022 2:02 am

This is like watching GSW pre Steve Kerr. A lot of talent that fit together, just missing system that will unlock it.
