The Brooklyn Nets are not only a bad basketball team, they're just flat out gutless.
Trailing by 29 points after three quarters to Orlando is just inexcusable.
Kevin Ollie was supposed to tap into the inner hunter within each of his players. Ollie insisted that only those that had a hunting mentality would play.
Well the effort and flat out performance was just unacceptable.
On a night without Cam Thomas due to an ankle injury and Ben Simmons due to an inability to play back to backs, Mikal Bridges performance was absolutely atrocious.
Ollie is not pushing any of the right buttons and the floundering Nets wasted an opportunity to close ground in the play – in race.
The effort, the enthusiasm and pride are just lacking from this team. While Ollie is only in his third game as interim head coach, the Nets will likely be on a coaching hunt this summer with Mike Budenholzer as one of the top names on the market.
