By Sharp Go To PostHow do you lose with a 20% three point differential
Unsurprisingly, they made less shots. 🤷
By Sharp Go To PostInexcusable for Derrick White to take only one shot in the fourth quarter, that's just bad coaching.I dunno. White had a negative +/- and the third worst among the starters. I don't think he deserved more shots.

This is analytics, to me.

This is analytics, to me.Indeed. And a 40% shooter being 0-4 on open shots for the night means he just didn't have it that game. Goes back to him just not deserving those shots last night. Just a pure analytic struggle for White. Not surprised his teammates didn't trust him in the high-leverage moments of the fourth quarter with how off he was all game.
Jrue also making a few threes to keep the game close was highly uncharacteristic as well, so the fact it was even within a clutch situation made things look better for Boston.
In all seriousness, if someone isn't taking "enough" shots for a single quarter of a single game, that is on that player more than anyone else. You have to demand the ball from your teammates, first and foremost. Get yourself in position to receive the ball and be a threat to score. Develop into a good enough playmaker to deserve dominating the ball so you don't have to depend on others to get it to you.
The only thing I would criticize a coach for in this situations is if they even had the guy in there at all.

Like, not getting enough shots is why Dy was talking about understanding Pop a little bit in trying to teach Wemby how to be an asshole. Develop his "leadership" by putting him in situations where he needs to be vocal to his teammates and dictating to them what he wants done. Learn how to effectively do that, and you will get all the shots and other responsibility you want during your games.

Analytics are only good at looking what happened they can never tell you about the process -- and to all of the best teams in the league they will always care about the process over the result first.

Nets became an average defensive team and Mikal's offense fell off a cliff into 3rd option territory again. I hope the two aren't related and he's just in a slump (or hurt)
By knux-future Go To PostPels are ending us rnIngram is playing within the offensive system instead of trying to be the system and Zion is attacking the defensive boards and going after contested rebounds. If they keep that up along with the improved defense, yeah, they will straight up embarrass bad teams. They have gotten home crowds to boo their teams like 4-5 times this season.
we really need to get a new training staff
injuries, illnesses and stupid shit like putting Maxey back in with a concussion or playing Biid on a torn meniscus ...is just clownshoes shit
