Where else can you go and watch your team go ...8 for 45 from three?....that's 17%What they could've done is just gotten the ball and handed it to the Nets 27 times and told'em to take another shot. That's like 18 extra turnovers to add to the 22 regular turnovers.I want my money back.I want my two hours and 40 minutes I spent watching this back.Does this give the 14 freaking coaches wearing matching shirts watching this game any traction with the team?Auerbach would sit on the bench with the trainer and that was it. Hell...Russell was a player coach. It was just him and he had a uniform on.They've got more coaches than players and they went 8 for 45 from three...?That's the end of my preseason game rant....would've been better as a "closed scrimmage" with no cameras, I could've watched college hoops tonight instead of 8 for 45 from three.
There is no way in hell without a healthy Kemba Walker this team is much better than .500. We just don't have enough players that are NBA ready. We have ZERO wing depth. Danny Ainge himself said we needed a wing just wasn't able to get Millsap. I really don't know how people in this forum think this roster is fine as is. I sincerely hope we get destroyed the first two games so we can actually get a decent bench.

Normally these questions are ridiculous, but could a lineup of G. Williams / Semi / Green / Edwards / Waters beat a good college team right now?I’m not sure that they could, and that to me means that they’re pretty dispensable.
For all the criticism about Houston's system over the past 4+ years, are we really that different??Chucking 3s, iso-ball, continuing to chuck away even when it's not falling. I mean the difference is Morey actually tried to build a roster around Harden that fits that scheme. The C's though don't have enough shooting and don't have the roster to do that scheme. But they just continue reverting to iso-ball for stretches and just shooting a ton of 3s a night. Huh?? And to be clear, people will say I'm overreacting to this preseason game, but this has been the case for 3+ years now. And we've lost key playoff games and playoff series as a result too. I mean really, 6/42 from behind the arc? That's embarrassing.
Quote from: footey on December 18, 2020, 10:40:09 PMStarting to doubt we can be serious contender with Jayson Tatum as our best player.Tatum isn't the problem, the team just isn't very deep or good enough. Boston was never going to be a contender this year without a major roster change. And Boston may never really be a contender with Tatum, though I think Tatum can get there. It doesn't happen over night. It takes years for a guy to develop into a guy that anchor a legit contender.

Kyrie burning sage before the game in Boston on the court is beyond disgusting and disrespectful to everyone in Boston. His way of saying his time here was hell and he needs to get rid of the bad karma. I wish him nothing but failure and misery in Brooklyn. Disrespectful would be too kind for that kind of action.Kyrie and Durant and maybe Harden would be game over. Healthy, they will be a top 2 team this year.NY media living the sage cleaning as was Durant.https://www.google.com/amp/s/nypost.com/2020/12/18/nets-kyrie-irving-cleanses-court-beats-celtics-in-return/amp/
I love coming here and reading the hot takes after a preseason skunking.Sky is falling, Danny sucks, Brad sucks, bench sucks, starting 5 sucks, everyones better, we suck, sky is falling.
