i agree with this analysis, however RJ didn't have a particularly strong performance based on his usual standards. He was just abysmal at the line and was one of the factors that sent the team into a tailspin in the 4th quarter.Hbwoy said:Honestly dont even know where to start. But I really think the problem with this team is Kidd and Vince. When Vince starts going its almost as if everyone goes into cruise mode. Bill Walton even made a comment as to the fact that Jason Kidd was virtually non existent in the first half. Now in the second half, he came out alive, knocking down jumpers grabbing boards like a mad man, sprinting down the court. Now if he had set that tone in the first half, the nets could have easily won that match. I dont know if its a good thing if Vince gets going so early, cause it really just makes the other players spectators. This might just be a one game occurence. Umm I guess RJ did fine, he needed to be more assertive. He did make his jumpers but I guess I expected more drives from him. The rest of the team except for Cliffy were downright bad.

No, that isn't a 1 game incident. I had said that same thing in the thread where a few posters said that Frank has to find a way to go with the hot hand.Hbwoy said:Honestly dont even know where to start.

The best candidate for that is none other than Jason Kidd. Correct me if am wrong for most who have watched the nets this season, is their best ball in the fourth quarters of gamesPetey said:No, that isn't a 1 game incident.

Furthermore as a team goes towards 1 option, he'll pick up defensive concentration.
Though it's not Carter's fault. Someone has to get the team to focus.

These are grown men, they should be able to do that on their own. But since Frank apparently is unable to do it, that has to fall on Kidd.Hbwoy said:The best candidate for that is none other than Jason Kidd.
