Cam Thomas come back already š
Fuck the Celtics, sick of losing to these shits, at least we didnāt lose by like 30 though tbfh
Game one without our 27ppg scorer. Its going to be a rough few weeks.
Jeez Mikal
Nets are undermanned right now. Hopefully, they can bounce back against Washington on Sunday.
No drive and kick.
Just passing along the perimeter.
What a beautiful showing.
Not my favorite game this season, nope.
Onto the next one!
*Let’s Go Nets!*
**BROOKLYN!!!**
Trendon Watford need consistent minutes in this lineup
DSJ can be usefull defensively in somes matchups
We wont have have any whistle for us this season till we dont have stars
We’re kinda garbage without CT and Ben
Bridges is complacent af, sad to see. Loves taking bad 3s when his game should be mid range shots. It makes absolutely no sense to me.
Giles has talent but he needs court time to develop and get comfortable.
I wasn’t excepting a win but for real thoses soft ass fouls really pissed me off
Weāre going to struggle for offense without Cam T. Him and Lonnie have been the only two guys that can consistently create their own shot.
But, I like what Iāve seen from Watford. He can contribute a little bit of everything. Weāve got a lot of talented guys in the squad.
Unless Lonnie is on a minute’s restriction, there’s no excuse for why he didn’t start the 3rd and 4th quarters.
Send Mikal to the bench, and CJ too.
This Boston team is too good to beat when we donāt have everyone. They also look very beatable when we can be physical which the refs have never allowed.
Simmons needs to get into these matchups when heās healthy. Tatum needs strength and size to be defended more than speed.
Watford needs minutes. He is a more aggressive Ben simmons on offense.
This team has proven – when they have most of their pieces – they can compete with anyone. Just need to keep seeing it.
Giles >> Dayron
Bridges need to be better
Mikal is proving that he’s really not made to be “the guy”. I want someone to light a fire under him, because I know he can do better than this.
The L isn’t a big deal. It’s Boston.
We should be big sellers at the trade deadline.
Lonnie and Watford are keepers tho
Cam Johnson had a rough game and royce was terrible as well. Vaughn needs to reduce Royce mins substantially in certain matchups
Just a friendly reminder that this team had udoka and said nah
I think it is safe to say this is cam thomas’ team
I miss Clax. Iām over the small ball lineups.
We need Clax we need Ben. Bens really going to fuck us for an entire season?
Cam thomas is the best player on this team and the franchise btw I hope you all understand this. Mikal can’t dribble, isolate, and his defense has regressed cam’s scoring gravity and potential is worth more to this team.
painful game out of Mikal and Cam, wonāt be too hard on Cam since he just came back, Mikal on the other hand needs to figure it out cause this team desperately needs his scoring. Giles wouldāve helped since Sharpe couldnāt do anything this game. Seriously, he has the size weāre lacking, can space the floor, has the closest archetype to Claxton out of everyone in the team; he should be playing when weāre missing both Clax and Ben. Only good takeaway about this game was seeing Lonnie and Watford continue to score off the bench
This hurts less than a nail biter I guess. On to the next one!
This games showed just how important Cam T is to this team. Hope we have a winning record when he gets back.
Can we stop pretending Dayron sharpe is an NBA player? I get downvoted in here repeatedly for saying he sucks.
Heās an undersized big man with no athleticism, no skill, no feel, and terrible BBIQ. He has no path to being a good player. He is a turnover machine and a liability on both ends.
I donāt even like Giles that much and heās so much better than Dayron.
