On January 4, Beijing time, the Nets lost 104-118 at home to the Grizzlies, suffering three consecutive losses. After the game, Nets head coach Nash became the target of the thousands. Many Nets fans have tweeted that they want Steve Nash to be fired from the Brooklyn Nets' head coaching position. The Nets' overall record is good, but given the team's talent, they're not doing well. Apparently, after the recent loss, Nets fans have had enough.
Nets fans appear to have run out of patience with Nash. His appointment was already highly controversial. Because many fans believe that the Nets chose Nash not because of how strong his coaching ability is, but because he is great enough as a player. When he took over as Nets coach, Nash had zero coaching experience.
Of course, the Nets have hired former Rockets head coach and Nash's coach mike D'Antoni at the Suns as assistant coaches, and the lack of experience has been compensated. But D'Antoni left the Nets this season, and Nash's lack of coaching ability began to appear.
While Kevin Durant and James Harden helped the Nets win many games, fans are starting to see clearly that Nash, as head coach, is holding the Nets back. His ability to cope with the regular season has been very difficult, and by the time the playoffs are bound to become a weakness for the Nets.
The good news for the Nets is that Kyrie Irving will return to the team in the next game, where he will play part-time for the Nets on the road. If Irving can help the Nets get more wins, Nash could see Irving as his savior. However, Nash's coaching position is not stable, and fans have a lot of opinions about him.
