What did you think of the Nets' rotation decisions during their win over the Pistons? How do you hope to see them approach the rest of the season?
GOD, we're so insecure as a fan base.
congrats on the engagement btw erik
Congratulations on your engagement Erik! Love your work
Dude stop crying about the tanking all them rookies suck
Congrats on the engagement!
So we're supposed to lose EVERY game left? Stop it people. Get a life.
Y’all should trade claxton to get back in the first this season. You should trade your two seconds for a low first too.
Get Andre Drummond in FA. Start Day’ron and have the New York native Drummond as a backup. Draft Cam or Caleb with the first pick. Draft Christian Anderson or Labaron Philon. Then draft the best available. I believe you could trade claxton to Charlotte or Sacramento. Charlotte has more picks.
i get being competitive but playing MPJ that many mins makes no sense… man coulda got hurt & all… let the rookies some experience sheesh
players try to win, but the tank is still one win is just that.
I think their best rookie is Danny Wolf, not Demin.
Let's go nets
Pointless win
The fact that people are even arguing about beating the number one seed in the conference highlights how twisted the NBA is currently. Hopefully we can get back to a place where winning is universally accepted amongst fans.
If the nets end up getting a terrible draft pick and then are absolutely trash as a result of that next season then I guess it will have been so worth it to beat the Pistons with a bunch of players that likely won't be there by this time next season but atleast all those players won't be upset right.
This is the last year to tank and you choose this year to want to win games😂 this organization has no clue where they are going, just winging it is a strategy I guess
This wins they are meaningless just hurts our future
mavs will get the first pick again anyway. we will probably ed up with the eighth pick again….
It was the Day'Ron and Ziare Show late in the 4th quarter. Want to give a shout out to both those guys who will definitely be apart of our push for the playoffs next season. Roster is going to need a lot of changes though starting this off season til the end of free agency.
Sean Marks please get the message through to Jordi we are trying to lose
Congratulations Erik!
Hate to feel this way but this will probably haunt us at the end of the season just like the win against the sixers last year that put us 6th in tank off and led to 8th pick. Just to be clear I would have no problem if the team won on the backs of the rookies but the fact that we sat rookies and let vets who won’t be here next year push for this win is annoying
Kings just won last night!! Bravo Nets pass up on an opportunity to tie in the win column with Kings. Bravo
Tell jordi we trying to tank
I just don't understand what the Nets are doing. Incompetence from top to bottom.
