Thunder Beat Frigid-Shooting Nets

The Nets had been improving offensively ... until Saturday, when they shot 31 percent from the field, 3-for-23 from 3-point range, and turned the ball over 18 times in an ugly 84-74 loss to the Thunder.

Oklahoma City took control with an 11-0 run late in the first quarter and maintained a comfortable lead all night. They shot just 42 percent, but that was good enough, with the Nets unable to score more than 18 points in any of the first three periods.

Deron Williams and Marshon Brooks led the Nets with 14 points apiece, but they combined to shoot 11-for-35. Kris Humphries had 12 points and 16 rebounds, but was just 6-for-17 from the field. Kevin Durant and Russell Westbrook combined for 41 points for the Thunder.

No one should ever accept that performance

This game is about skill but a mentle state goes a long way. Guys need to be ripped for not doing their job (lack of focus) against a good team at home.

We are not that bad and should have one the game. It seems like Avery is running Franks offense, or was that Harris playing PG.

Knicks are a bigger joke b/c they’re supposed to at the very least a playoff team. Nets were expected to be garbage by most pundits.

Knicks are way underachieving for the talent they have. Plus, most Nets fans have an inborn hatred of the Knicks, so any fail on the Knicks part tends to bring a little bit of happiness even when the Nets suck.

Deron is playing with D League talent around him, inf front of uninspired crowds, usually on back to backs, knowing he has to carry the team for us to have any chance to win.

Ok and i've sort of been saying that for the last couple weeks

But it comes to a point where you look at Deron Williams’ play on the floor and wonder if you would have had 3-4 more wins if he hasn’t played like a D-league guy himself. He doesn’t even have a spring to his step which is concerning. Sometimes i think he’s not healthy and other times i wonder

well yeah with the ball in his hands. Maybe the nets are using him too much off curls. He missed a bunch of those tonight (wide open) and while he’s not a gifted scorer i think what your trying to say is he scores better when he’s already been dishing it successfully.

by SamsHops on Jan 21, 2012 11:07 PM EST up reply actions  

Yeah.

I really think that when Lopez comes back we are completely different. Our offense runs through Lopez. MarShon looks like a great half court offense kinda guy. I just don’t really care how we look without Lopez in a season we all knew was a waste.

Defenses are stacking the deck against Deron

You saw how they were collapsing the paint to deny the penetration and dish.

We lost to a team that is suppoused to be in the finals against the Heat or Bulls without Brook Lopez.

Im not mad. At least not tonight. They fought but got out-talented.

At least both the cavs and Knicks lost too. everything stays the same for that 7th & 8th spot.

Those turnovers KILLED us, but the Thunder are a very athletic team and we are not so I understand.

Also our 3 point shooting was AWFUL, no shot to win if we shoot less than 10% from 3.

Rookie had a tough game too.

Tomorrow’s game vs the Bobcats is a MUST win though. Our next opponents are Philly and the Bulls so we HAVE to get a W tomorrow.

True, but as Claud pointed out

there are very VERY few that want to be a play maker and overall player like Kidd. Rubio will always be a good playmaker whether he becomes more offensive oriented imo. He’s got a very good young and talented team also, I expect big things from the Wolves soon

Yeah! I wish he was more like Jason Kidd!

He is playing with D – League talent in a season that everyone in the organization has told him doesn’t matter, in an arena that only 500 people show up to for a “home game”, knowing the team is moving to Brooklyn next year, playing back to backs, knowing he has to carry the entire team every night and play perfectly for any chance to win. Go watch some D-Will highlights, he is an AMAZING point guard.

And why is JKidd a leader? I thought you had to win championships to be called a leader? Did he lead that Mavericks team? Or is just looking at the past nostalgic?

If you want to argue about the talent on the Nets not being DLeague, that is fine with me.

-Our starting C rotates between Petro/Shelden/Okur
-We still don’t know if Hump is just a stat stuffer on a bad team, he was NOTHING before -the Nets.
-Our second best player is a rookie, drafted in the 20s, who is less than 20 games into his career, and his GM has told him not to worry about defense because he just doesn’t get it yet (yes, lot’s of potential, but it isn’t there yet)
-Stevenson thrived because he had a tiny role and responsibility, we literally have no other SF

This team was just a bunch of random pieces thrown together with no practice time, built around a C and a PG, and the C got hurt. DWill knows this year doesn’t matter, and this team is garbage, he is one of the best PGs in the NBA

Kobe shot 6-24 in the last finals game and was given MVP…
Guys have bad shooting nights
His shot is off, you want to bash him because shots aren’t falling?

Why can’t he speak his mind? You guys act like these players are slaves, telling them to just shut up, say all the right things, and do their work. They are people, they are interviewed every single day and asked the same questions, why can’t he answer the questions?

Maybe MarShon is playing so well because of Deron?

Why didn’t CP3 get this heat? Emeka didn’t play any better with CP3. Trevor Ariza didn’t improve with CP3…Why doesn’t Carmelo get this heat? The Nuggets are better without him, and he isn’t making Landry Fields or Toney Douglas better, and Amare looks worse. Chris Bosh didn’t make Toronto look better. Bargnani looks better now.

You are right, DWill is not playing in a system specifically made to make the most out of his talents, surrounded by players built to play in that system, and is not playing like the best player in the league in a year he knows doesn’t matter.

lets be honest, the nets have the worst fanbase in the league. no way around it. Even Keyon said he preferred the crowd for Clippers games(when they sucked) over Nets games.

Kidd said it, many a player from other teams share the same idea that playing for the nets means you wont have much of a homecourt advantage.

When the Pacers were winning and before the recession, they showed up, same with the Hawks. Nets were winning and they had a bottom ten attendance, their best attendance ranking since the Calipari days was 18th

Guys, are we really getting riled up over these things?

1. OKC is better than the Nets
2. Deron is waiting for next year, especially with Lopez on the sidelines
3. NJ fan support is pretty bad (in the arena, not online apparently), as it has been forever.

And forgetting the most important thing?

1. Giants punch their ticket to the Super Bowl tomorrow.

Hmmm

1. Nobody (rational) is getting riled up over the Nets losing to OKC. I think most Nets fans understand that team is much better.
2. It’s one thing to wait for next year. It’s another thing to basically put your shooting into hibernation until next year. That’s unacceptable and, if I was the GM, i’d have to think long and very hard before giving him a max contract (for several reasons).
3. His paycheck and his professional pride should be sufficient motivation. If it isn’t, i’m not sure he’s the right guy to build around.

Oh pissing blimey there's jam coming out of the walls!

Can you guys relax

Criticizing the sightlines, or background, or whatever you want to call it isn’t a slight to the team. Sheesh, I’m a fan and love everything Nets, but I’m not going to take it personally when the players wish the fans were closer on the ends of the arena.

HAHA I don't know but it shocked me when he started talking gold fronts were shining

Almost seems like he’s content with just being cool getting money or what not I don’t know but was hilarious.

Deron on and off the court reminds me more of Starbury instead of JKIDD...

dribbles too much, more of a scorer not playmaker, stops flow of the ball, half moiso defense, pudgy, body language of an A moiso hole, and off court it’s everybody else fault but him. Jazz team does not look like they miss him at all…even with D. Harris playing like a moiso….(triple double use of “moiso”)!

I am concern giving this guy max money to be honest at this point we may regret it for many years… hopefully this is all be cause he does not have a big man like Lopez to play off.

then sign kenyon martin for another big man

by andy.nets on Jan 21, 2012 11:30 PM EST reply actions  

he is someone who can run an offense off the bench whilst farmar is just a chucker and a poor teamate, and also kidd is a leader and can maybe teach d-will some things about leadership

by andy.nets on Jan 21, 2012 11:34 PM EST up reply actions  

true

what do we sign k-mart for

by idrise12 on Jan 21, 2012 11:35 PM EST up reply actions  

didnt think that one through maybe he will sign for the minimum

by andy.nets on Jan 21, 2012 11:45 PM EST up reply actions  

beacuse he would only play the back half of the season

by andy.nets on Jan 21, 2012 11:45 PM EST up reply actions  

Although I do agree that D-Will is right

I don’t like the timing of his comments. I wish he would’ve said something like this maybe next year or further down the line, not when the Nets are playing their last game in NJ. And on top of that, you’re not even playing well. He should really keep his mouth closed sometimes.

But that’s just me.

that comment was interpreted incorrectly.

But I agree, I prefer CP3 to Deron. Especially CP3’S mentality/leadership.

in terms of a trade

i think we still came out all right. Deron’s averaging 18.4 ppgs, 8 apg and 3 rpg. Both favors and devin combined don’t come up to 18 ppgs this season. also harris is avg like 4.6 apg at the moment and favors 5 rpg. kanter throws the rebound out of whack but he doesn’t contribute much other than rebounds.

All in all, we still came up on top. trade wise.

NO WORRIES

Deron is still the man … I got mad love for these guys. Calm down haters remember this is a nets blog ! Not a nets haters blog … U just wait and see when we get Lopez back ! Things will change! Patience ! Don’t hate on deron or anybody on this team they are our team !

I don't know why

but I’m very annoyed by D-Will right now. I’m tired of him talking about this and that, then showing up on the court and playing like moiso. Dwight is a real possibility, so I won’t complain.

Dwill said he would get grumpy if we started losing

but he is being a complete female dog right now… I was not expecting all this garbage
