The Nets notified Nash deadlines to solve the problem or leave the class Harden and some players were quite dissatisfied with him.
According to the latest news from The New York Post reporter Brian Lewis, the Nets' point guard James Harden is quite dissatisfied with the team's lineup and tactical play continuity, mainly pointing to head coach Steve Nash, and some Nets players are also against Nash
'I don't have much to say, I've said enough, our squad is incomplete. Harden said in an interview. At the press conference, Harden acted frustrated and did not want to repeat the obvious questions.
From the Nets' personnel rotation and tactical play, head coach Nash has not yet determined the starting lineup, and the replacement rotation has not been fixed. At the beginning of the season, Blake Griffin started, and although the three-point shooting was unstable, Nash directly abandoned the DNP. Bruce Brown has also been on the bench, starting and DNP. Whether center Clarkston will be able to start or play is uncertain, and recently rookie center De Roan Sharp was also abandoned without warning.
Sharp averaged 19 minutes in his first eight games, shooting 56.3 percent from the field, averaging 9.8 points and 7.8 rebounds per game, including 3.4 offensive rebounds per game. "Ever since Harden named him and Sharp's blocking tactics are great, the 20-year-old Sharp has lost the starting spot." Brian Lewis said in the report. The Nets lost 8 rebounds and 5 offensive rebounds to the Kings, and in the final quarter of the game, the Kings kept attacking the inside line, and Nash insisted on DNP Sharp.
"Except for Harden and Durant, everyone on the Nets doesn't know if they can play in the next game, where they're going to play, or even whether they're starting or off the bench." Brian Lewis said, "That's what Harden calls consistency, and he's extremely unhappy with the team's problems. Harden has mentioned this many times, but the Nets haven't changed.
Defensively excellent DeAndre Bembry and Bruce Brown were abandoned by Nash, and Sharp, who can defend and grab rebounds, lost the start as soon as he rubbed a little spark with Harden. In the Nets game, Harden's blocking tactics with the center were gone. What is more exaggerated is that Nash often put up the lineup of Harden, Irving and Mills to play unlimited changes, and the inside line is repeatedly hit by the opponent.
The regular season has been played in 51 games, but the Nets have not even a fixed starting lineup. "Harden doesn't know who he's going to play with in the next game, who he's going to play with." Brian Lewis said, "News from inside the Nets confirms that it is not just Harden who has shown frustration and dissatisfaction with Nash's lineup rotation and tactical play. Some Nets players also questioned Nash's rotation and playing style, and Nash gradually lost control of the team. ”
"If the Nets continue to lose, Nash's manager's job could be in jeopardy." Brian Lewis confirmed in the report, "Nets management has informed Nash and communicated, discussing issues such as lineup rotation and playing style, and hopes that Nash will solve the team's current troubles as soon as possible and get out of the predicament." ”
