That's what I'm sayin. Dude has got to adjust. When driving the freeway. Freeway speeds. When driving the city, make adjustments. Dude just turns the ball over carelessly

Looks like a different team than most games this season. A real team.

Okay, this is some of the best execution I've seen all year. I get KD and Kyrie out. But I wanna see some execution of sets and defense. Playing really well right now. Consistency is what we need to build. Maintaining this level

The Nets have only two players in double figures. The defense has been very good, even if Harden has 33 points in 33 minutes.

Yeah, maybe not. Actually, strong possibility not. But at least they can play Quality Ball before we make our exit. Rather than an 82 game sh*t show this whole season. Go out on a sword. Rather than whimper and limp out, if you get my meaning.

Rome wasn't build in a day. We can't build a championship level team with so little game time together since we practically signed a whole new team in the offseason. One game at a time, one play at a time, that's what we need to focus on to build momentum

The whole third quarter was Russ trying to give the game away and Lebron single handedly preventing that from happening. This is an unbelievable season from a 37 year old Lebron James and he doesn’t deserve this sabotage artist.

Russ' 5 dumb turnovers is indefensible, I wished Frank just sat him down after he committed his 3rd. Having said that, there was a 5-6 game stretch where he was averaging .8 TO's per game and they lost 4-6. The difference was the energy they brought, Monk and Melo hitting 3's and the Net's horrid transition defense imo.

I dont know if russ knows how to slow down the game mentally. He always seems to be in a rush. Doesn't calculate and read. Just attack and go. But not all drivable situations are at freeway speeds. Sometimes, you gotta drive city speeds. Just before half, 9 seconds, meaning we get last shot, dude rushes a pass, turnover, and Harden gets points on the other end. When I saw that, that tells me that mentally he's in a rush. Patience. Reading situations. Dude needs to work on that stuff

It's his 14th season.....I think it's fair to say that this is what you get, and it's all your ever gonna get.
