Just give me a series win vs Philthy and I'm happy.


The media is deluded to act like we can win at this point.

Mandate isn't changing for Kyrie.

Simmons is choosing to sit out for weeks.

KD can't do everything on his own.

This team might not every play together full time. Were not winning ****.


For me its like, what does being full strength even matter when we are so incompetent top to bottom? there was ZERO urgency to win games when we were bleeding out. not at the coaching level not at the front office level.

The role players on this team are actually very good.

Its just sad that we can never see the full team.

Feel bad for Mills and Aldridge who have to do way more than they should have.

Looking at your schedule and current Standings it looks like the Nets are running out of time. At what point do you shut it down and just let KD rest up? Because at this point the only thing that will save the season is KD coming back and going nuclear. And I'm not sure it's a good idea to put that burden on him fresh off a major injury.

huh? are you slow? shut it down? why in the world would we do that? its a lock we are top 10 seed with KD. We owe our pick to another team. shutting anyone down is beyond idiotic.

i hope your trolling, because if not... wow.

Vaughns post game just highlights that we should have been bashing the entire staff, not just nash.

They didnt want to push dragic? dude played 15 minutes. 5 more isnt going to kill him. meanwhile this same team was playing KD/Harden 40 a night.

more rah rah we showed toughness after a bad loss nonsense excuse making

also the performance and general stance towards injury needs to be evaluated. between like 100 hammys being reaggravated, Joe need a second opinion, ramp up generally taking 10 weeks, and all the ramp up nonsense something clearly is not working.

Its not just KD coming back.

Simmons, Kyrie, KD AND Joe Harris have to all come back. Then we have a shot.

If not Dragic then Cam.

We needed something on offense. Mills was just horrible. He can't play this much.

Mills has played in all bar 1 game this season averaging over 30 mins a game - this warrior needs a rest to freshen up and try return to his early season form.
Play the youngsters more mins until KD and Simmons and part time Kyrie return to transform this team into the Title Contender it absolutely will be.

Beginning to think having Jacque Vaughn as the lead assistant is a huge problem. Massive downgrade from D'Antoni and Ime.

Regardless of what happens in the offseason, the lead coaching staff needs upgrading. Development staff is still top notch though.

You are concern trolling. I'm not gonna report you, but I'm just letting you know that we see through what you're trying to do here.

I have been more than gracious to 76ers fans. We all have. But some of you guys are starting to cross the line.

Mills needs to rest. The guy is clearly burnt out.

This is a disaster man. I feel hopeless right now. All the good vibes we had after Saturday's amazing win are all gone. No Kyrie, no word on when Ben will be back. Harris is probably done. Can KD alone and part time Kyrie actually lift this team to the top?

I give up. This team really depresses me. and its not the players who are playing right now's fault. We have some GOOD role players. But they are asked to do what they cannot do and we have the worst coaching staff in professional sports. I want everyone fired

It looks like Patty mills is your problem to me. If he had made half of the shots he normally makes, you guys would win a few more games. He's a sharp shooter coming off of screen or a catch and shoot guy. What's wrong with him? Does he have a physical or mental ailment or something? He was a very consistence 3pt shooter when he was with the Spurs and knocking them down at a good clip. Anyhow, good luck the rest of the way and hope you guys find your groove before the playoff starts.

Patty has been outstanding and is moving great. The issue is he is being asked to be James Harden or Kyrie Irving and not to be patty mills. He is being asked to run the offense and score on the ball. In Games Kyrie/Harden played Patty has been good to great. His shooting on catch and shoot plays has beeng great. he is taking too many off balance threes dribbling around a screen and his legs arent there being way overused.

He isnt a real concern despite poor results recently.

Windhorst is now saying that Ben Simmons might not play this month!!!!!

https://www.netsdaily.com/2022/3/2/22958067/windhorst-ben-simmons-may-not-be-ready-this-month-certainly-not-next-week

For what? Hes fully healthy and should be playing. He won't even practice

This is why we traded for him.

Kyrie would rather face gunfire than take this shot. Simmons doesn't want to play until a few weeks before the playoffs. Joe Harris looks done for the season.

So whats left?

KD with a bunch of role players? That won't get us past the first round man.

This team is a failure on every level.

We should have never traded Harden for this head case.

We could have had Harden and KD fully healthy by this week. I don't care if he leaves. At least we had a shot to win a chip.

How do we have that now? Kyrie and Simmons can never be trusted.

1) Nets are cursed
2) I dont think ben is fully healthy. i think he probably has some real anxiety issues.
3) marks should have known this and flipped ben for john collins or fox or something
4) Tsai/Marks/Adams need to figure it the F out.

Ben is too scared to play. There were a thousand red flags prior to this trade.

This is why the Sixers couldn't get anything for him. Then we just came to save them with James Harden.

I would WAY rather have kept Harden. He would have tried in the playoffs once he saw KD playing at an MVP level.

And then we wouldn't even need Kyrie. KD + Harden was enough to get past any team in this East. Philly would be a non-factor.

So we just have to get past Milwaukee and Miami.

Even if Harden leaves a Championship makes it worth it.
