Brooklyn Nets head coach Jacque Vaughn talked about the team’s horrendous fourth quarter following yesterday’s 125-114 road loss vs. the Los Angeles Clippers (outscored 41-15/Clippers closed the game on a 22-0 run).
(via YES Network):
Reporter: “It’s not one thing. It’s not a busted coverage or a blown call. When you have five minutes like that where you guys didn’t seem to have a mental response, a way to figure out how to staunch the bleeding, how disappointing is that this deep in the season that a run like that could go on that long without a response?”
Vaughn: “I think it just tells you that our group is still learning lessons. So whether it’s being organized after a free throw, which you have plenty of time to be organized and get into a set, you’ve got that piece of it. Whether it’s taking the shots that you would normally take throughout the course of the game that your teammates expect you to take, that piece of it. Whether you’re up six, whether you’re down six. So those are lessons for us to learn, especially on the road against a really good team.”
