Only caught the last 3 minutes, but I was NOT impressed by Caruso as a floor general this morning.

Kuzma?



Maybe they need another in addition to Kuzma if you allow for injuries and load management.
KUZMA is the answer!!


Gotta cut Cousin... D'Mo looked good on the chinese team

Tuned in about halfway through the 3rd. I love Caruso’s activity but his decision making is still a work in progress. Some real ugly lineups from Vogel. JaVale was impressive.

A mixed bag, I'd say. His athletic limitations come more into play the more he's asked to be a ball dominant PnR guard. A lot of guys are going to look better alongside Lebron and AD, so I'd like to see him get a few more minutes with those guys before the preseason is done.

You only caught the last 3 minutes though. Keep in mind who he's paired with.

That’s true, but he still has to protect the ball better and he had a couple numbskull drives into traffic. I’ll still take him over the other options.

After that ending I hope the G-leaguers gained experience & enjoyed the trip (plus the paycheck) because a few of them will be back in a South Bay uniform in a few days.

The Nets lineup down the stretch had significantly more talent than ours.

DeAndre Jordan blocked the hell out of us the last few minutes...

asking norvell cacock caruso kcp and jackson to win a game against rotational and starting nets players is unfair to them.

They made mistakes and poor decisions but the effort and hustle was there and i appreciate them for that!

Nwaba on this team would have been nice! We need an athletic 2/3 to run, jump and harrass people..

I think Caruso tried to do too much at the end, but he was good for a significant stretch.

Not a thrilling game to watch, for the most part. AD and Javale looked good out there.

One of the few things I liked about this game is that Vogel said we'll be switching lineups, which means we won't see this starting lineup next game.

I also like that they played in front of a crowd. Great to see.

The good news is eventhrough the lineup of

KCP/Rondo/Dwight/Lebron/AD

seem less impressive than the lineup the other night, they still managed to put up 30+ points in the first quarter. Their defense through seem far less effective.

And Pinson/Nwaba are defensive specialists. Having Cacok out there at C against Jordan really hurt the offense, as well.

please!!!! put Troy at PG and Dwight at C.



PG.Troy
SG.Green
SF.LeBron
PF.Davis
C.Dwight


People don't understand that you need shooting in todays NBA!!!


Rondo, Davis, Lebron and Dwight or Mcgee are non shooters..You can't play these people together!!!!! You need a guy that is comfortable shooting long 3szz. Caruso would also be good.


People are fine with Rondo shooting 30 times because he can't beat you trading 2s for 3s or if he gets to the line he shoots 50%... You need a guy that when LBJ and Davis struggles can give you 15-18 points on a few 3 pointers..

LeBron played well, as usual. He actually tried to hustle on defense a few times.
