The NBA regular season continues, the Nets, who have suffered six consecutive defeats, will play against the fourth-place Jazz in the West, and in the previous game with the league's bottom-ranked Kings, the Nets' performance can refresh the fans' perception of them, the current Nets are in a bad situation, and their team is also facing various problems, the Nets have encountered difficulties in trading, the front line will repeatedly injure, the Nets may fall into the playoffs.
After the last loss to the Kings, the Nets and head coach Nash were once again on the hot search, and Harden only scored 4 points in the entire game for 37 minutes, which is not very familiar, that is, when Harden was in the Rockets period, now in the Nets, this state appeared again, plus it was previously rumored that Harden would leave the team, and after the game Harden attributed the team's loss to a lineup disorganized, which was completely different from his previous mentality.
The Nets are 29-22 in sixth place in the Eastern Conference Standings after a six-game losing streak, and behind them are the 28-24, 26-23 Raptors, 28-25, and more importantly, the Raptors and a team have recently been in hot form to achieve a wave of 3 consecutive wins; the Nets themselves will next play against the Jazz and Nuggets, once they can't win the game and the teams behind them beat their opponents, they may fall to the playoffs in the standings.
In addition to external troubles, the Nets are also facing internal worries. The star Durant is still in the injury recovery stage, and according to previous reports, Durant will miss this All-Star Game, which also means that there is still a period of time before Durant returns, which is undoubtedly the most difficult time for the Nets. The team's inside veteran Ard has been one of the team's most stable scoring points so far this season, averaging 13.4 points and 5.6 rebounds per game, and Ade will always use his own mid-range to help the team in the difficult stages of the team, but he also suffered an ankle sprain and is expected to miss the Nets' next three games.
Both Durant and Ader's injuries will take time to recover, and they are expected to return after the All-Star Game, but the Nets forward 3D will be reimbursed this season or suffer a season. Joe Harris has suffered an injury in only 14 games for the Nets this season, joe Harris underwent ankle surgery at the end of November 21, and the recovery period is expected to be 4-8 weeks, but Joha's injury recovery after the operation is not ideal, according to previous reports that Joha is seeking a new treatment plan, the agent revealed that Joha has not yet decided whether to undergo a second surgery and will make a decision in the next 1 to 2 weeks. Once Joha is sure to undergo a second surgery, then he will be reimbursed for this season or season, which is bad news for the Nets.
The Nets have also encountered difficulties in seeking adjustments due to internal and external troubles on the team. The Nets' previous deal with veteran Millsap will look for a team for him that he can contribute more. They have allowed Millsap to leave the team, and sources revealed that the Nets' goal is to exchange Millsap for a player who can shoot from the outside or a future second-round pick. The Bulls and Lakers became Millsap's potential next home, according to reporter Michael Scotto, the Nets want Millsap's asking price to be a second-round pick, while the Bulls want to sign Millsap directly after he bought out. That means the Nets' trade is struggling. There have also been reports that the Nets can also appear on their trading lists in order to seek to adjust and strengthen the lineup. But there has been no substantial progress on the nets on the deal.
Closer and closer to the trade deadline, do not know how the Nets will adjust the lineup next, the Nets still have a big problem, that is, head coach Nash, so far this season Nash in the coaching, tactical arrangements and the use of personnel rotation has been questioned, the outside world a lot of calls about Nash's class, how the Nets will adjust next, let us wait and see.
