Game Debrief: What Went Right And What Went Wrong?

These kind of losses show the flaws in the team

Rob needs to make a move or 2

 

5-3 roadie, not bad.

Nice end by waxing the worst team in the NBA. Dear Lord! They have some solid to good players on the roster, but they're in dire need of structure and a legit PG.

JJ did a good job of having them ready out of the gates. We didn't take them lightly, played aggressive defense, got out to run every chance we could.

I can't remember the last time we played a team that was that sloppy.

Bron and Luka both did the damn thing while shaving a few minutes off the usual.

Great to have AR back. Shot is rusty as expected but he wasted no time before getting into the action. Only 21 minutes and led the game in FTAs.

Hopefully this was Gabe's send-off party

 

Everyone within the Nets Front Office should be ashamed of themselves. This team would lose to some G-League teams.
Yikes.
Great to see Rooves finally back on the floor!
You know a team is awful when the Nets commentators say over and over again:”they just need to show some effort.”

 

Lakers up 59-29, and we're all wondering how much worse this game can get (not our fault, not the Lakers' fault), and Luka takes it down to the arc, dribbling, they send a guy to double him and he makes a perfect no-look pass to a wide open...was it Jaxson? Rui? I don't care. 61-29 and I just felt bad for any kid Nets fan whose dad shelled out for two tickets, hoping his team can turn it around.

5-3 Grammy trip. I'd've loved to have won that Knicks game for a 6-2 trip, but hey: we got AR back!

 

Much needed win

Had such a big lead at half we lose the 3rd and 4th and still win big

Nice to have AR back

Shot 23% from the 3 line

Jake 18 pts 5 reb

Hayes 9 pts in 15 min

Timme 2 pts 4 reb in 6 min

 

Hell no to Claxton and his skinny a** 216lbs at his salary. Would much prefer Deandre at much smaller salary likely going forward until something “better” comes around, and just ignore all the b****** about him. Legit, skilled Big man paired with Hayes is OK considering the 2 wing needs we have.

 

Opposite NY games where the Lakers outplayed the Knicks and for the entire 1st half and then lost. Home cooking is good as well as having AR back lol

 

Lakers finally come home, look soft in the 1st half, go into halftime 59-51. Luka limped off in the 1st half after scoring 10 points in 16 mins on 3 for 10 shooting and 0-4 from deep. Set for an MRI. Looked hammy to me.

Lakers go down 14 and Embiid and Maxey were frying us. In the 2nd half JJ had us double Embiid. It slowed them down a little. But we got AR back.

AR looked like he did before the injury that kept him out for 19 games. 35 points in 25 mins off the bench, including a couple of 3s that were breathtaking in clutch situations. I think the whole team felt how he lifted them, and we really needed it, esp with Luka getting hurt.

Hillbilly Kobe saved our entire side of bacon in this one.

Lakers go up 16, then do what this squad does: relaxes and lets a team back in it. 76ers cut it to 2 very late.

Lebron, aside from a few sweet dimes, looked pretty bad. 7 for 17 for 17 points in 37 mins, with 8 turnovers, about 5 of which made me think, Well...he is 41 years old. His outside shot looked really bad. 76ers D is pretty good, but man...

Good win on our first game back home. We win it 119-115 in a game that really was that close, but was notable for each team going on runs of 8-0 or larger.

We hit 9 3s, 5 from AR. I saw we got Kennard for Gabe earlier in the day and looked in here and everyone was already saying what I was going to say, so I held my tongue: Will Kennard suddenly make 3s at 10% less than what he had been doing?

 

Are there really some folks here who think AR is not him??? Come on!!!
That was a good win and it was won on the shoulders of AR. Period.

 

Yea! 76ers have their Maxey, but our Maxi really made some key plays on the offensive boards. Good to get some clutch, significant play from him.

 

AR looked great. Nice come back.

just praying Luka is okay.

 

Nice to see AR come back with a big game

Won the 3rd and 4th Q's

Jake 14 pts 2 ast 3 stl

Rui 14 pts more important 7 reb

Max 4 pts 4 reb 4 ast

DK shot 100% from the field. Okay it was only 1 shot, but baby steps?

 

AR's performance in the playoffs this year will determine if HIM will get the MAX, HERE or Elsewhere.

 

True but I am not worried, except for potential injury. What I find myself worrying about with AR is his style of play and staying healthy. All that juking and jiving sure seems like he puts himself in position to get hit pretty hard.

 

Our offense is absolutely unwatchable when LeBron runs it. He threw away two easy passes in the last six minutes of the game.
Thank God Reaves can play because we actually look like a good team when he’s running the show.
I guess the refs decided to close their eyes everytime Austin drove the lane.
Luke looked great and even made a couple great passes.
Donkey Green is still an idiot and should have been given a flagrant for nearly taking Vando’s head off.
Then, he should have been ejected for that extra hard screen on Austin.
I honestly don’t know how the refs didn’t think that either were just normal fouls.
Dubbs were in it all night because they play solid defense for an entire 48 minutes- even though they were an atrocious 2 for 17 from three in the first quarter.
Breen is the biggest biased Warrior fanboy and doesn’t even try to hide it. I listed to the majority of the game on mute.

 

If they actually called all of his fouls, by the descriptions of what constitutes a flagrant, this fool would be suspended half the games each season.

 

It's remarkable what he gets away with because it's Dray being Dray. Historically those kind of players got a shorter leash with the refs whether it was Rodman, Sheed, Ron Ron, etc

But good ole Dray gets to swipe at the head, get Vando a headlock, walk the ball halfway up the court on a dead ball while talking to the ref (no delay of game), shoves Austin in the back on a screen, stands over him after, has conversations in the game with Vando, Maxi, Rui, and our bench. No T on any of those particular interactions and no flagrant.
