We were toying with them all game, the Nets wanted it more. Lawson needs to be more aggressive and look to score more. Clint only played 10 mins.
This game needed less Harden and more Thornton. James had no mojo. The 'Thorn' was making shots, making plays and making things happen. Offense should have focused on getting him the ball more often or even most of the time. Instead it was James consistently clunking off the iron. We need to consider Marcus as our 'other playmaker' Forget the egos, we need W's
We survived 0-3 start and we will survive this epically pathetic loss to a winless trash team. You could see how the team was just half assing like they felt sorry for the nets. The feeling was like "the nets are so pathetic they do not deserve our best effort. A best effort from us vs nets would be embarrassing This game is a lesson to bring their best effort no matter who they play, especially AT HOME! Don't just get hard for sexy opponents Not sure why harden sticks with the 3 late in the 4Q when the first couple 3s miss. That is not the time to gamble. T jones needs to be glued to the bench. Period. We need DMO back soon so he can get in rhythm before we are relegated to fighting to avoid the 8th seed to avoid gs in 1st round. Yes, that's what this season's may boil down to. Mchale needs to get off his ass, he needs to call more time outs when our team is fukn around out there. He needs to work on his rotations, play calling and demand more intelligent play from his stars.
You don't get it! IF all you want is an entertaining team that will make the playoffs, then you will be indulged at the end of the season, BUT if you want to take that next step and actually win a championship you have to outgrow your immaturity and go full metal jacket EVERY night! You can not take nights off or take your opponent lightly!!! A championship caliber team does not lose or barely wins against the bottom feeder teams! IF OKC, Clippers, Spurs beat us, then so be it, they are top tier opponents, the Nets and Nuggets are pitiful bottom tier teams that we should of beat easily!!! ....... ....... .......
Spurs would never lose a home game to these scrubs. Just shows we are no where near that level. Maybe one day we'll gain discipline.
Basically Larkin, Bargnani, and Bogdanovic totally owned Beverley, Terrence, and Brewer...the 3 players at the very top of my trade list.
