The Brooklyn Nets are 7-3 in their last 10 games
That’s it. I think someone needs to let curious Mike know that they’re supposed to be tanking this year
I really wish we’re tanking but ngl, i like seeing the team win while the rookies are also getting meaningful minutes
Jordi with a top 3 pick would run the league but I’m so proud of the rookies and I’m having fun so I can’t complain
The last time we had a team full of exciting young guys who overachieved, it led directly to KD choosing us. I was really hoping for Dybansta, but if we end up being a piece away from being a contender instead I’ll take it
Might be Anthony Edwards in a couple of years. That dude is made for New York City. 🤭
At some point you just need to start winning, winning culture is hard to build and there’s no guarantee you find a star in the draft
Dude you don’t want to be the Washington wizards.
How are the nets remotely comparable to the Wizards, who have been tanking since John Wall left? Ethical tanked last year into the 8th pick and already closer to being back to contender status than them this year.
We’ve been tanking since 2023, before then we were trying to win but being mediocre or bad (like Atlanta/Chicago/Toronto/Miami)
Jordi is a hell of a coach. Wish he worked for us instead
He’s incredible. Got a team with 4 rookies getting regular PT playing some very fun, sound basketball. The defense has done a complete flip from start of the season
Thought you guys love the finchy crash outs
Its fun when he does it, but like 90% of the fanbase fucking hates him. Terrible lineups , absolutely no development, refuses to play young guys and adjust lineups in clutch. Holy fucking shit he played randle in the clutch when he was like 3⁄11 and most of his shots were layups
Sounds familiar
Yeah Randle needs to go if you have title aspirations
Yeah most of the fanbase are idiots now that we are actually good.
He sucks as a coach idgaf about all that when he’s making incompetent lineups and can’t adjust
MPJ is an all-star
Clown Timberwolves commentators were dismissing his case as if someone averaging 26/7/3 has no business in the ASG. Dude is closer to all nba than he is to not making the all star team
The team is winning games too, so his impact is actually positive
Even if they werent his impact is undeniable lol
FUCK A TANK
JORDI. FUCKING. FERNANDEZ.
Mike curious about why everyone thought he sucked
Jordi’s the best coach in the league
Spanish Spo
The defensive buying in has been genuinely amazing to see, the amount of good rotations and active hands is kind of thunder esque
Need more hard fouls for that
Feel less bad about the Sixers blowing it to them now that everyone else is too lmao
I’m so happy for Mike.
I was watching Rockets-Cavs via league pass then I slightly switch it to Nets-Wolves. Then I saw MPJ dapping Cam Thomas on the bench as if telling him “this is our team now.” 🤩🤩😆
The NBA has been flipped upside down
Detroit better go get Mike.
Someone Everyone didn’t get the memo about tanking
Our win against them suddenly looking amazing
They are probably long term better doing this than just trying to tank
Good for MPJ man.
I’m so glad everyone is attributing the team’s success to MPJ. His story is really an inspiration
GO GET EM MIKEY!!!
They had guys running sprint drills during time outs. Wish our guys had some more discipline
I had to check who curious Mike was lmao
Good
Please tank
Do the nets just not want a high pick. Send MPJ to Detroit.
I know this may seem like a foreign concept to a Mavs fan, but teams dont usually just trade away all-star caliber players in their primes to other teams without getting great value back for them. This also might be difficult to understand, but trading an all-star caliber player for pennies on the dollar usually does not guarantee you get the #1 pick the next season.
Detroit (or any other team) wants him, they gotta pay. Simple as that. This team is winning games like tonight with 3-4 rookies getting legit minutes and contributing. None of these rookies were picked in the top 7, and only one was in the top 18. This team is not gonna give away a player like MPJ who has had such a positive impact both on the court as well as in the locker room for less than his value just for slightly better lotto odds when this front office has shown they can find talent no matter where they pick and this coach has shown he knows how to develop talent.
Would you give MPJ the 5yr/$200M+ deal he’s going want ?
exactly!!! you cant have a big three when you trade away all of them before they even have a chance to shine
A fan of a team who got a number one pick as a play in team LAST FUCKING YEAR making this comment is actually wild
