Its a little discouraging to see that Tyreke has pretty much given up on shooting outside shots.

Interior defense on Kris Humphries and Johan freaking Petro has been terrible.

Why? He's got 9 points, 4 assists. 2 steals, and 1 TO and you are bothered that he's only made one jump shot? I don't get it. And frankly I am more concerned about our horrible defense.

defense has got to tighten up that 2nd qt was ugly. Reke has made to jumpers that mid range and the 8 ft in the lane. He looks a lot more confident shooting it though.

Sorry. I don't focus on Tyreke's shot selection so much. I just watch the game.
Word. Evans hasn't been the issue.

I still think the best thing that can happen to this team is to acquire a stud defender SF, with a bit of size (who can also shoot and pass decently).
That allows us to move Tyreke back to a guard position, move IT to spark plug off the bench.
It shores up our perimeter defense hugely. Tyreke is a good defender, but only a slightly above average defender at SF position. You get a stud defender there and you boost up that positions D, and then you let Tyreke guard the most appropriate of the guards, where he is an upper echelon defender. Two defensive birds with one stone.
And of course we still need that be shot blocker/interior defender. But the first move would go a long way.
p.s. Batum would be ideal.

You're right. He's not a defensive mismatch in NJ's favor like IT/MT are.

This line up doesn't fit Tyreke Evans.

Now that the Nets have figured out they can just crowed the paint on us Evans has become useless on offense. Let the Ghosting begin.

I bet it gets us back in the game.

Love that pass from Twill.
Right because Evans was the reason JT fumbled a pass on the inside...

Yay more wide open NJ 3's.

Its the reason he drove into the middle of 4 defenders instead of taking a simple face up jumpshot or floater.

He got JT a layup, which last time I checked is better then a mid range jumper.

The fact you haven't mentioned the numerous defensive mistakes by IT/MT just proves how much bias you watch games with. Only notice anything Reke does wrong.

They all have major deficiencies and mistakes, Evans' just happens to kill momentum. I want Reke to succeed with our guys, I really do. I've been a Reke supporter since day one but to watch the games and not notice that momentum goes our way everytime he leaves the court you would have to be blind. He looked his best and most comfortable coming off the bench. Now when Cousins and Evans are off the floor like right now, thats when things get really out of control.
