Nets need to give ‘more’ vs Kyrie, Mavs
Coach Vaughn asking for greater effort after loss to Cavs
The Nets are going to Dallas on Friday night to open a four-game road trip, and face Kyrie Irving and the Mavericks for the first time since he was traded out of Brooklyn in February.
Head coach Jacque Vaughn is still wondering how his team blew a late six-point lead to Cleveland on Opening Night at Downtown’s Barclays Center Wednesday.
“I told the guys, ‘We have to be the more team. More accountability, more physical, more disruptive, more communicative.'” Vaughn intimated after the Nets suffered a heartbreaking 114-113 defeat to Donovan Mitchell and the Cavaliers in front of a sellout crowd of 17,931 disappointed fans.
