"Im the focal, point like Biggie in his prime on DLO tho shh, the city is mine" '17-18 Nets thread

[TR7]

This season is so fukkin frustrating, this is a 32-35 win team if the games were 44 minutes long, the last 4 minutes are a disaster

How many times under 4 minutes we're up or right there, and just throw it away

I love what Kenny has done in terms of development, but this is on him as much as the players. There's no consistency with who plays late, and then the play calls. Caris is on fire, and we go to Dinwiddie for an ISO contested 28 foot 3? At that point we all knew it was over.

For all the good we've seen this season, continuing to lose close games with no sign of learning from those mistakes is not a good look

Kennys rotations itself are annoying..

I knew game was done that one play when Spence kicked the ball back out when he was wide open in the lane.

Its sad seeing the young brehs play so hard, just to come up short time and time again

I got love for Spence but he fukked up a few times late in this game.

What happened to D lo, did he play?

LeVert balled the fukk out.

Caris took dlos mins tonight

How did I forget that one

That followed by him forcing the pullup (maybe he got fouled but still a force cause he knew he fukked up last play). Caris made that tough layup then he and Spence with 2 awful 3s.

You can't be up 8 with 3 minutes left and a minute later be up 2

 

[Serious]

When DJ came in, y'all fukked up, by not putting another big out there to match....

Spencer isnt enough to cover dj...

The fro could should have came in...

Our coach loves small ball to a fault. I cant fault him though for FINALLY sticking with the lineup that was winning the game.

Din needs the high usage to be effective and hes not getting it next to dlo.

I think kenny needs to tweak the lineup and put din on with the bench and start levert and dlo...that is the future back court any way.

Aside from the last minute turnover levert played his ass off last night.

 

[Stinky Diver]

Had a fanduel lineup last night that had deangelo as my SG and won $11. The winning person had the same exact lineup as me, just with caris instead of deangelo and he won 20k.

Yup. Spence should be the guy running our 2nd unit, let him have the ball then. DLo needs more time running the offense, and so does Caris. Let them get those reps together.

Also pretty amazing how we went from 3 Centers to start the year (Mozgov, Allen, Zeller) to now just Allen in the rotation. The Okafor project seems to be over unless he learns how to defend. Cunningham has done a nice job as a small ball 4/5 tho.

Man i could buy sean marks a drink for getting cunningham so i dont have to watch anymore pump fake acy on my screen anymore

Okafor i think they are going to work with him heavy this off season. He just doesnt fit yet and to try to throw him in mid season you see the results.


Caris still needs another year for the game to slow down he still moves a bit too fast at times but the potential ..hes the perfect off the ball compliment for dlo especially when the shot gets more consistent

Side note ..aside from last nights dud, the 8 games before that, crabbe been playing really well..

20.8 pts 4rebs on 45% from 2 and 41% from 3 ..plus his defense has been good just about all season.

 

[Captain Crunch]

Y’all just one premier talent away from being a team that can do damage in the future. Hopefully y’all get lucky and be in a position to get Bol; Reddish, or RJ next year.

Crabbe finally seems like he's comfortable, he'll never live up to that contract but if he can be 40% from 3 running Korver-like plays for him plus the good defense, perfect.

Acy has that 1 game every 15 where he's making his shot and you're like , then you remember the other 14

Jah has a tough road ahead. Seems like they were ready to let him work through it, then Allen made a leap earlier than we thought and the offense became "shoot 3s all the time" so the backup 5 was now small ball. If he can't improve his defense to where he's at least playable, you'd have to think he's a trade candidate next season. But I hope he finds it, we could use that low post threat with shooters around him on the 2nd unit.

Caris just needs to stay healthy and get the minutes, he's got all the tools just gotta keep working. We saw his peak last night, looked like he could get to the hoop whenever he wanted and if he gets that 3 ball consistent to pair with the handles
