Ball isn't moving. And we always struggle when that happens.

6 minutes with Monte and Conley were good. I am not sure why Monte got pulled for Jmac. That seemed to be when it slipped again. We've got such a weird balance, Ant and Jaden have to wake up if this team wants to go anywhere.

Well, kek. It looks like we bottled up that 3rd quarter and spread it around for the entire half. And Gobert out makes our interior defense suspect.

I really expected a sharper game tonight. Pretty disappointing. There’s not much reason to think things will change in the 2nd half, so I expect another slog-fest.

Yeah, looks like hero ball. Just need to cross our fingers and hope KAT and Ant's iso play leads to buckets.

Ant takes some of the toughest shots that he has no history of making, like that full on 12-foot runner that wasn't even close. Terrible shot.

What the hell are we watching tonight

The score isn't indicative of the defense tonight that's for sure.

Not a lot of communication offensively. too many times even on a fast break where a drive is happening and someone immediately gets in the way of the drive.

Seems like the Nets have a bunch of guys that are the exact same size, or at least that's what it looks like. So they switch everything and it's hard to screen your way into open shots since they just switch it. Gotta somehow be patient and find mis-matches. What happened to Naz Reid!? He used to destroy these switch-y small ball lineups.

We are playing with fire. One guy gets hot and we lose.
