NETS defensive mistakes vs. THUNDER | December 31, 2023

Happened multiple times this game it’s the same exact Play It’s what happens when you’re poorly coach Jack vaugh was terrible in Orlando he’s terrible in Brooklyn it’ll be fired soon Mikel bridg has got to get attached and show so lugon Dort can’t curl you don’t Cur Dort

Curls there no no no no no if you’re Mike H Bridges as Shay gild’s Alexander cuts through you’re seeing ball and you’re seeing man what is Mike H Bridges staring at right here you’re looking at neither so now Shay gild Alexander is coming up to the wing you’re not ready

To go look at this you’re coming uphill trying to guard you got your hands on jel Alexander’s arm and now you’re getting beat lifeless transition defense first of all could cam Johnson please Sprint back is that too much to ask why are you jogging Sprint back so Spencer didn’t

What he can actually guard the ball knowing he has help at least Royce O’Neal’s there but this isn’t defense this is Spencer Den Woody I don’t know what that is on this switch first of all Thomas should be up ready to guard why is your hand on Cas Wallace the screener

I should just be ready to guard but the problem here is Mikel Bridges isn’t getting underneath the screener on the switch he should be in help and that’s it see look at the problem Mike H bridge is going over the top so now when Shay Guild Alexander spins in the lane this

Draws multiple Defenders and so now people are open on the perimeter this is what a poorly coach team looks like and Jack vaugh will be fired soon he was terrible in Orlando he’s been terrible in Brooklyn Mike H bridg is as soon as Dron sharp comes to

Double Mikel Bridges has to take the cutter Jaylen Williams okay like that’s not optional okay so Dron sharp where’s Mel Bridges You’re Gonna Leave the weak side Wing if a skip pass gets made Royce O’Neal rotates up cam Thomas goes there and that’s where Bridges goes but what’s

The point of talking about any of that when you don’t do the first thing so Dennis Smith gets screened right here it’s Dennis Smith and cam Thomas in the screen just switch it it’s the easiest thing ever to switch nothing to think about Dennis Smith’s underneath cam

Thomas is up you have help in the middle of the floor when Dennis Smith switches but what happens I mean Dennis Smith’s getting underneath eventually but cam Thomas isn’t uper ready to guard what are you doing look at this not ready to guard you’re cooked why do the Nets have to make this

So hard look at Dennis Smith’s feet why are you letting sheay gilders Alexander go away from your help Mikel Bridges is standing at the top of the key begging to help you but you’re making sure that Shay Guild’s Alexander goes away from that if you’re cam Thomas and you’re helping

Here I’m up the line I’m outside the paint I’m still going to be able to help on the ball with Chad holgren here but I can get out to Vel meit right here I mean look at cam Thomas you’re standing in the paint for no reason you have no

Chance of getting out and guarding now rip and go bucket why do the Nets make this so hard if you’re Nick Claxton get your hands off Chad hren show your hands be ready to slide your feet and guard again where’s your help smack dab in the

Middle of the floor so I’d want him to come to the middle of the floor anyways but Nick claxon’s too busy gambling right there and now Chad you’re off balance and Chad Hol can spin off you the same thing this is complete trash it’s a down screen cam Thomas

Needs to get attached and show you’re literally staring at your man setting a down screen and you don’t so lugan store curls on the same exact play and it’s a dunk when is Jack vau getting fired again no let’s not have our back to the ball right here Nick claxton’s taking

Chad Hol grin Spencer didn’t what he’s taking Vel meich so let’s see the ball let’s be in help like what is happening here why is Spencer you’re not seeing the ball no one’s in help how is this occurring cam Thomas is just sleepwalking here could we Chase over

The top of this down screen why are you walking and trying to go go up the gut of the down screen so now kenrich Williams of all people can rip and go draw help Cas Wallace for three this it just it makes no sense Mikel Bridges you

Have no one to guard other than to help so let’s get up the line and help so that dribbles getting picked up at the top of the key and I can recover why you’re you’re doubling C Shay gildas Alexander here why are you backpedaling so now Shay gild’s Alexander in the pain

How you going to recover you know so Spencer Den witty’s not doesn’t have his back to the Baseline he’s not in a defensive stance that’s why he’s going to be late coming up to guard Jaylen Williams right here all right so now Dorian finny Smith wants to switch this

Okay you go into the game every single time Dorian finny Smith and spener didn’t a ball screen you switch there’s nothing to talk there’s nothing to think about well guess what happens Doran finny switching Spencer did what he’s not so he’s switching over the top and Chad Homer’s getting a dunk what a

Circus the Nets are Jack vaugh will be gone soon but Nick CLA why why are you standing in the paint why are you not up level to Josh giddy right here why are we just giving up a wide open three for no reason jock vaugh will be gone soon

Everyone here stop backpedaling Dennis Smith Jr stop backpedaling Dorian finny Smith and help get to the top of the key right there so I’m getting that dribble picked up and that’s the only help needed but Dennis Smith junior backpedals right here Dorian finny Smith doesn’t help until shild Alexander’s in

The paint so that’s going to bring a third Defender to sh G just Alexander and we’re not recovering from that what is Dennis Smith Jun you have no chance of getting this offensive rebound none please get back what so you just take yourself out of the play you

Just didn’t feel like getting back I mean Royce O’Neal switching the screen onto Shay gildas Alexander get your hands why you underneath kenrich Williams get up get up ready to guard up look at this look how much space you’re giving up up up up up Dorian finny

Smith’s in help so you have help but you’re not Mike Kel Bridges and Royce O’Neal are clearly gonna switch this screen it’s Wing to Wi it’s the beauty of having Royce O’Neal Mikel Bridges you can switch everything with them so you’re switching why is Mel Bridges then

Leaning towards the screen early just to get beat the other way and there is no switch the Nets are in possibly the worst Zone I’ve ever seen with 5 seconds left in the third quarter okay could Mike H Bridges guard Chad holgren here why is Mike H Bridges not getting over

And guarding Chad holgren then let’s count how many other Nets players are guarding air Nick Claxton guarding air Spencer Den witty guarding air we there’s three Nets players guarding no one by the way it’s not like Dori and Finny Smith standing at the elbow guarding air that’s that’s unreal you’re

Nick claxon and you’re guarding the ball the only thing I’m worried about is the ball now it’d be nice if Spencer didn’t he was get would get his back to the Baseline to be in the gaps that’s not going to matter cuz Nick claxon look at

His eyes right here you’re looking for a screen not paying attention to the ball so now it’s time to get cooked it’s just it’s just not acceptable if you’re Spencer dwy get up and guard cam Johnson’s right there to help you look at this why is DW look at how far off you’re

Playing just more outer space defense from cam Thomas could we get up the line with our feet set in a defensive stance so we’re ready to recover to Cas Wallace look at cam Thomas’s feet you’re going away from the ball you’re going that way as this Ball’s getting swung to Cas

Wallace you’re not ready to guard Rip and go you’re off balance triple maybe the most pathetic trap I’ve ever seen why is Cam Thomas across half court get up if you’re trapping Mikel Bridges up if you’re trapping I’m not letting Jaylen Williams turn the corner where’s Nick Claxton going I got to deny

Chad holgren defer didn’t what he’s got to be up why is Cam Thomas guarding across the other side of the floor I got to deny one pass away but it doesn’t even matter because cam Thomas M you just let Jaylen Williams turn the corner easy
