    There is no excuse if the team loses tonight. The Nets have 1 player playing right now who averages more than 14 ppg.

    what in the literal and actual fuck.

    With Roco's 5 fouls, we literally only have 7 players, 5 of which suck on defense.

    My eyes are bleeding. Replacing even one negative defender with a positive one will be such a positive for the team.

    People can say what they want about Harden, but he has more assists than Dame/CJ combined....with several of the best players on the team not available.

    I wonder how many signatures it would take to actual get Stotts fired. I mean what’s the number that would sway ownership?

    Also, if Neils target is Aldridge he should just resign now.

    That has happened at least twice tonight. Inexcusable.

    This is what you get when your coach doesn’t hold anyone accountable on defense for 9 years. It’s a culture of lazy defense.

    Team looks like shit again. Launch long balls and get beat for easy buckets on the other end. Over and over again.

    You make it sound like every other roster is full of All-NBA defenders. The reality is that each team has a few guys that play defense well. If Stotts actually emphasized defense and held his players accountable for lack of effort on that end of the court it would certainly be a start. I don’t even think he considers the defense to be a problem.

    Blazers keep doubling down on washed up players. Overrating ability to put up a low percentage shot. Underrating defense, rebounding, hustle, and efficiency.

    None. He is unloveable unmovable object. He will be blazer coach until Lillard retires. We will never go anywhere with stotts as a coach

    The right move will be to fire terry stotts right after the game.
