If they won't fire him during ASB, he won't get fired at all until after the season. Just my guess.

If Nash is not fired tomorrow then we need to dismantle the team. Including KD. get whatever assets you can because there is 0 chance we win no matter how healthy we are with Nash as coach.

1) WTF us harding playing 40 minutes when he clearly is either not healthy to play or not himself? -21, literally walking on defense and had absolutely nothing on offense. Not only did we play harden a ton, but we are running everything through him while our guys stand and watch him.

2) Kyrie didnt play well, but Nash did him no favors. He was red hot in the first and nash ices him for like 8 minutes. Kyrie standing and watching Harden instead of running through Kyrie with Harden clearly not 100%. When we did go to kyrie it was 0 movement, just dribble handoffs.

3) Why does nash ride the Brown/Johnson/Blake lineup like its Bird/Parish/McHale? terrible. Meanwhile Bembry barely plays and Kessler edwards is glued to the bench. Nash crys about shooting then sits edwards and plays a lineup with 1 shooter.

4) Nash against efusing to use timeouts when the Kings go on runs. No adjustments to speak of. No urgency on the sidelines. nothing. lifeless. The biggest knock on Nash is he couldnt get his team up for a must win game vs a TANKING opponent. Blame Harden or Kyrie for playing poorly but honestly this is a team we should have beaten without any stars.

5) i dont care if it was a back to back on the road or whatever nonsense nash excuse. HE NEEDS TO GO. And honestly, Marks needs to go to for hiring him in the first place. I'm tired of losing games to awful teams missing their best players.

top 5 worst loss of the Brooklyn era. F steve nash.

I like the guy, but we need to be honest. If we can get Simmons and Maxey for Harden I think we do it. Maxey went to war with Morant the other night and held his own.

Simmons could thrive here possibly as a point center and Maxey serves as Kyrie insurance. We need to think bigger picture. I don't trust Kyrie and I want him off this team sooner than later. Pairing KD up with some high upside young players may pay off more than sticking to this losing formula. Harden’s game is looking like it won't age well and Kyrie is a headcase that will be out of the league by 2024.


No matter how ugly it looks you cant do it. The big 3 has been All-time-great elite when together. you have to give them at least 1 more chance. We 100% wont win if we make that trade and that trade will be there in the offseason.

He should have been fired a long time ago.

Marks ruined this **** franchise.

I would rather we just kept sucking and tanked for a draft pick. Rather than get KD/Harden/Kyrie and sucked anyway.

Whats the point?

All we get is ridicule and embarrassment from this.

The day he hired Nash he ensured we would not win ****.


I don’t blame Marks for hiring Nash , he tried

I blame him for not firing Nash about 5 games into the season

Its looking like were headed for the play in.

There is no shot were beating the Jazz or the Nuggets. And then after that were going back home without Kyrie. Where we havent won a game with months.

This road stretch was supposed to be the better part of our schedule. Because at least we had Harden-Kyrie.

Very good shot we get knocked out in the play in too. You can never trust this dysfunctional team for one game.

Nash has created a culture of losing on this team. Last year we had Dantoni and Harden playing at an MVP level to cover up his mistakes.

Beyond that Harden is a bum. Anyone still defending him is an idiot. Hes noot good. He hasnt been good all season. He sucks.

If I could I would trade him for Simmons/Maxey yesterday. I am 1000% sure we would be better.

How can you not blame him for not hiring Nash???

You had Kevin Durant and Kyrie Irving. A chance to win a title.

Go with a safe option. Why hire someone who has never coached in his life? What sense did that ever make???

I would literally take anyone with minimal competence at this point.

Hell give me **** Lawrence Frank or Avery Johnson at this point! It would be a HUGE upgrade.

Honestly, a good coach would just sit Harden and ride his youth/energy. Edwards/Bembry rotted on the bench while harden walked around on defense. he had 4 points in 37 minutes. he should have played 20 with what he was able to give us tonight. No reason Kyrie/Mill couldnt run things with the rest of our guys. We build leads with Harden did sit. its clueless... nash only knows "play my stars 40 minutes and hope for the best".

I would need more than Simmons but I would do it. For sure I would do it.

Give me Simmons/KD/some role players and part time Kyrie. Thats good enough to win the East.

6 losses in a row = Marks gets super jumpy.
Let's throw in another 4 to make it 10 losses in a row = Marks fires Nash and works his ass off to pull big trade.

Fire Nash. Install Vaugn.

Trade Harden for Simmons, Maxey.

Take the fines on Kyrie.

We would easily tread above .500 till KD came back.

Then we would have enough talent to win the East for sure.

I'm not a nets fan but was really hoping for this team to pull through in the East. I like KD, such a mess from Kyrie to Harden, I feel like giving away Allen to get a pick for Houston could've been avoided somehow, he would've been a huge asset on defense and in the paint.

No excuses, as I said. We stink.

Harden is not healthy. We should shut him down now, and hope he's healthy by the time the postseason arrives. Take the option to play an injured Harden out of Nash's hands, he clearly is willing to ruin James' career and our contending chances. If he's a real coach, he can keep us afloat without stars, like so many other coaches have had to do this season.
Some people really have a way with words. Other people... not... have... way.

You have to blame him for hiring nash.

He passed up a dozen more qualified coaches, not to mention minorities/females, to hire his friend.

They couldn't pay Allen so it wouldn't have mattered. He was leaving for sure.

We shouldn't have traded for Harden in the first place.

I'd just rather have Levert/Allen and those picks. Maybe use some of those picks to acquire better role players.
