    Cant wait to hear some more philosophical word salad from JV

  2. Fuck this team. Embarassing L after embarassing L. We deserve change

  3. adrian_mg

    Some changes need to be made. First, with the head coach.

  4. Bigbadbuck

    we’re one of the worst teams in the league guys, the early start was an aberration based off hot 3pt shooting. its time to sell the vets for anything we can get. there’s no point in trying to win anything this roster. we have to develop young players no star is gonna want to come to this roster as is right now. I don’t even think guys like jalen wilson and watford will be worse than dfs and royce at this point.

  5. screeningnick

    You’re up 2 and you keep doubling leaving 40% shooters wide open. That is a fireable offense right there.

  6. just_so_irrelevant

    can’t wait for the 60+ comments calling for vaughn to be fired 👍

  7. Downashland

    Vaughn smiling after games really grinds my gears. Just because you don’t care about winning doesn’t mean the team and fans don’t.

    I’m over him, I’m over Marks, I’m over Tsai.

    Thank God my Niners are playing well

  8. Grendel_82

    Can’t give up 130 to the Blazers even if there was overtime. Just a defensive failure. Too many of those for a roster with these defensive skills.

  9. SensibleHumanBeing

    Aside from the loss, Vince Carter:

    “I told DFS to follow through on his shot at the half” – DFS makes a few threes going into the 3rd

    “I told dennis smith to do a flashy dunk at the half” – poster

    “I told Mikal to shoot on the way up” – mikal shoots on the way up to send the game into OT

    hire this man

  10. CarisLeVertsBurner

    How is Cam Johnson consistently so atrocious at the end of games?

    Our defense is ass with or without Cam Thomas, and we didn’t have the offensive firepower to close out a game against the Portland Trail Blazers. Mikal had to go nuclear to send us to OT.

    But i’m sure some expert analyst in here would tell me that what we just saw was actually better than having the scorer, who thrived in a consistent role earlier in the season, be a part of a closing lineup in a game like this.

  11. LUFC_shitpost

    damn JV doing everything he can to get that mutual release cheque 😭 just fire his ass ffs. Also Cam J was literally just Joey Buckets from Game 7 vs Bucks tonight.

  12. ireland1988

    I hope Sharpe is good. Why isn’t Walker getting more minutes when someone like Johnson is so cold? Happy to see DSJ playing more. He felt solid despite what the +/- says.

  13. I hate to say it because the drop scheme made me sick this year, but I think we missed a good chance to go back to it tonight. Simons, Brogdon, and Grant are good shooters but they don’t really have the spacing to punish drop coverage.

    Drop worked against Orlando and Detroit because they’re two of the bottom-5 perimeter shooting teams in the league. Portland is bottom-10 and they burned us by driving to the rim, which is the same way OKC closed the gap the other night when we switched from drop to man coverage.

  14. Conscious_Juice8956

    JV gotta go at this point, I don’t get some of his decision making at all just baffling sometimes

  15. hushed-shush

    I missed the news about Dayron. What happened? Contact or noncontact injury?

  16. gleeson630

    CJ should never close out a game. Play Royce. CJ only works when we’re getting assblasted not when it’s close.

    It depressing being a fan of this team. They don’t know how to win games so you’re just waiting to lose. Other team has to sell for us to close out.

  17. This team ain’t it at ALL… we haven’t really beaten anyone in almost a month. That suns win was the last good one.

    That Okc win was a fluke. Okc probably partied the night before and woke up the 2nd half. We nearly bottled a 25+ lead

  18. zestysnacks

    If you can’t win against a bottom team with a performance like that from Mikal bridges, you absolutely need to make an upgrade at the deadline

  19. We’ve lost a lot of winnable games over the past few weeks.. not fun at all

  20. Acrobatic-Dog7044

    I just knew this team was gonna sell the game at the final stretch Bridges finally has a good game and the rest of the team can’t step up it’s a fucking joke.

  21. Acrobatic-Dog7044

    We’ve lost to the hornets, blazers, and wizards now LMAO we’re a lottery team with none of our own picks coming our way for the next four years!!!

  22. CommunicationNext835

    Embarrassing loss. This team struggles to execute in the 4th, and even though we sent it to OT, we still couldn’t consistently execute. Still, we were up by 10 PTS at one point, but we blew the lead. We shouldn’t have had to go to OT in the first place if this team could execute, but they struggled. Surprisingly, Bridges actually seems to have broken out of his slump, at least in this game.

  23. Woodstatrey

    I’m annoyed by the loss but the sharpe injury really took the wind out of my sails.

    Claxton getting 5 fouls so early made it too easy for the blazers to go at him on the occasion they didn’t have a wide open 3, too.

  24. BrodoFaggins98

    Been hesitant to call out JV because it does look like an all team slump but damn this mf doesn’t care about losing, his mentality is bs, 0 compromise, 0 hunger, he’s too relaxed sucking ass. He needs to get back to being an assistant coach at best.

  25. mentholsdruid

    am I the only one who feels like this team doesn’t even run any offensive plays just spamming pnr’s?

  26. Gnar_Susuwatari

    Why are we doubling average shooters when we have a great iso defensive lineup?

    This team is just awful at winning basketball games.

  27. Gnar_Susuwatari

    Refs tried to save us but we refused to be saved.

  28. Seeing these lineups with Bridges and 4 ball watching average to bad scorers is abysmal. Bridges can get 40 and it’s clearly not enough. We already have bad defense we might as well develop CT and have some offense.

  29. Padulsky21

    Please get rid of the bald preacher. He threw this game with some heavily questionable shit. Got outcoached by Billups and a tanking team.

    I’ve been checked out but it just keeps on getting worse and worse and worse. None of it makes any sense, none of it is fun to watch. Preserve your sanity y’all ✌️✌️✌️✌️

  30. Can’t wait till post trade deadline, we can get rid of most of these vets and go full on youth movement.

  31. shahoftheworld

    Closing games when they have a lead has been a problem since game 1. I don’t see if changing unless there’s a coaching change unfortunately.

  32. This team is playing meaningless games until they make trades. I’m not convinced anyone on the roster is going to be part of the next really competitive Nets team. We need to start unloading these vets for picks and future assets.
