Yo this guy is an idiot lmao
The nets have a bad owner, bad GM, and they had a bad coach. The roaster needs revamp… but if they hire Ime Udoka.. they’re simply saying let’s win now. But the fact that Nick simply said they’re a bad team it’s just amateur…and he actually said the nets are the team to fear two weeks ago… 😂😂😂
It’s funny how whenever a team not doing good the first person to get fired is the Coach I feel like the Nets gm should of been let go than the Coach because if the Nets never made the trade for James Harden the nets would of still been a deep team but now that the team lacks defense and barely have a bench and then you have a player like KD and Kyrie who are two unpredictable people you can’t expect this team to even make it to the finals even though they have two Hall fame players on the team
wow. is only 6 games. relax dude 😆
So the opposite of what this hater says is going to happen like normal
CURSES.WILL FOREVER BE UPON HIS HEAD AND HIS VOICE FOREVER! !
The question is, which coach(es) can keep those egos and mentals in check? They got all the talented bad cool kids inn one class and need a grand master level teacher to make it all work
This loser is mad because Kyrie made him look stupid the other night he sounds like a bytch
Trade durant for lebron…
Nick is a Dickhead lol n this is new too me thought he was cool til this week smh
Nash isn’t a good coach so a turn around could happen ,but he made points to a lot of other issues that may impact the next person that is hired. Ime wouldn’t make much sense as he’s been suspended by a team for his personal issues. The nets are a mess I can see why he fridel says just blow it up but I think a coach that can actually coach could help this team. I don’t think the nets are so far gone they can’t play decent basketball but having a point guard that can’t shoot which is a max player makes it harder to acquire extra pieces. It’s tough as a nets fan ,since they traded for these dudes all that’s been there is drama outside of the first year which I thought they could’ve won if Kyrie didn’t get injured. Now I find it hard even with a decent coach to get to the finals. The East is also great,young teams like the hawks ,cavs and Toronto all could challenge and make it tuff outside of the Celtics, bucks and heat. Can’t forget 76ers too. Really rough but the nets needed to do this no disrespect to Nash.
Steve just wanted to coach basketball. Not all this bs
The disrespect of the network‼️ he sure is speaking for some people huh
The true problem is Durant & Kyrie thinking they can be Coaches. Setting up Nash to fail by making him essentially their puppet leader. Any new coach must have the Gravitas, credibility and diplomacy of Steve Kerr, but also, and more importantly, the Fire Breathing Authority of Gregg Popovich. What will it take for Kyrie and Durant to once and for all admit they don't know it all?l It isn't likely, especially when nets management just caved in once again to them.
Durant back to The Warriors for Draymond. Talk about from the frying pan to the fire!
Byrie lives in this dude's mind rent free
Hopefully Malika is next. 🙏🙏🙏🙏
Next Coach of the Nets is going to be Coach U’Stroka
Drama hid his horrible coaching, this is a horrible take.
KD thinks he's the GOAT because he won a pair of titles surrounded by the GSW system.
Kyrie is a one-man circus who has NEVER been a team guy.
Simmons is a bench player being paid like an all-star.
Sure, they'll win some games, but this team is not in any way a serious contender for the Eastern title, let alone the NBA title.
Blame Nash if you want…. but the Nets have bigger problems than coaching.
I say the winner here is Nash because he got away from that tire fire.
Is Sage Steele bleaching her skin?? Seems on-brand for her
What this team needs is a LEADER. There’s not a leader in this team
It was just a matter of time, before THIS SCHMUCK was going to get REVENGE on Kyrie( after Kyrie Humiliated him at that Press Conference ).
Kyrie and durant was on a podcast saying they didnt need a coach, than those 2 idiots cosign nash hiring……they had kenny atkinson and they got him fired….. if I'm the nets I'm blowing up the roster ……trade kyrie, durant, and Ben simmons for some future draft picks and start over….. nets would of been better off just keeping atkinson, dinwiddie, jarett,levert, and dangelo
Kyrie is the toxic piece. Get rid of him. Nike should sever the endorsement with Kyrie. Hit it where it hurts the most like destruction of Kanye. Toxic and delusional people of this world.
I completely disagree with Nick Fredell. The Nets do have the pieces, the problem is the pieces aren't being utilized property. You can't start Ben Simmons on Nick Claxon together especially if Ben Simmons won't shoot the ball. Joe Harris should be starting with Ben Simmons coming off the bench playing with the second unit. Kyrie Irving needs to dribble less and involve his teammates more. Once he gets the ball he goes into his Harlem globetrotter routine which causes the offense to come to a complete stop. Obviously they can be better defensively and rebound better on both offense and defense.
Nick friedell is a clown. So is kyrie but nick just talking to talk too
He was not qualified. Period. He’ll get another job – he’s sleeping well tonight, trust.
Just tear it down. Just so much noise and distraction.
Kyrie is not gonna be extended anyways, so get rid of him now so with Durant. Them with Simmons winning a championship is just an illusion. Take a cue from Danny Ainge, start the rebuild. Unfortunately for the Nets, they dont have their own draft pick next year when Wembanyama
is on the table. Hope Nets learned another lesson, there are no shortcuts to winning a championship.
As a net fan HE SHOULDVE BEEN GONE. Now flip Kyrie for Dame or CP3 and trade Ben for miles turner and Buddy heild
Ayton, Crowder and a couple of picks for Durant. 🤝
The fact y’all still blaming Nash 😭 🤡! Oh man, all coaches do in the nba is say a few words and change lineups, the players call isos and make the plays on the floor stop blaming Nash, Cavs when to the finals with MF DAVID BLATT I mean come on y’all, out here blaming it on coach maybe if Kyrie played more then 27 games I think it was this wouldn’t have happened
