I knew this will be an article I'd have to make time to sit down and read. I am correct.
Steve! Here's my question regarding your quote: "...it was fairly common for the Nets to go down something like 18-5 before their talent usually allowed them to catch up."
Is Steve Nash's lack of a real offense the issue last season, which could be expected due to the trade, lack of practice time, etc, OR... poor defensive philosophy?
Appreciate you always, D-Rock. My personal opinion is that the Nets were often not ready to play at the start of games, with blame all around. Insufficient advanced scouting, Nash not getting through to the guys on the importance of coming out with the right mindset, and, perhaps most of all, the players, since it's on them to perform. One other thing--the offense last season was historic; the issues were mostly defense/rebounding, a lot of which is preparation & effort.
