Stone is definitely the guy to rebuild this franchise

    I don’t understand why he hasn’t used 10 day contracts to find a backup big or a wing shooter. Why didn’t this idiot sign Bol Bol when nobody else wanted him? Knowing damn well we need size and a big that can stretch the floor. Why is Boban, Landale and Tate still here?

    Every team is making moves to improve their roster to prevent fatigue and injuries even the ones that aren’t making it to the playoffs. This organization is run like a AAU team. Something weird is going on with this front office.

    LOL

    The guy who got the job because he has no gag reflex when in the same room with Tilman, has proven beyond a doubt he is not the guy to rebuild this franchise.

    Stevie Wonder could see this team had multiple things requiring urgent attention at the trade deadline. Apparently Stone couldn't.

    Maybe they already saw what they wanted to see when the roster was healthy and now they want the team to sink or swim without rentals? That isn't the direction I would have gone with but I can understand the logic behind it.

    Every game we lose and every game the Nets lose we increase the chance of getting a top 4 pick in the draft. So I disagree on this team being run like an AAU team, it's not like losing games does nothing for us, esp with the play-in far out of sight. Winning a couple more games and still not making the play in cuz we have a backup? Nah, give me those higher lotto odds.

    At this point adding an extra big or a shooter on 10 day isn’t about winning now. We may find someone that can contribute for us next year. Tbh no free agent signing will help this current team win enough games to ruin draft positioning.

    I don’t want to see Alpi get hurt because he has no backup to spare a few mins or a few games while he heals his back injury. We simply don’t have enough size on this team.

    Landale is 6'11 if winning isn't a factor him, Jeff Green and Jabari are enough.
