On January 30, Beijing time, the Nets officially said that James Harden was determined to miss the game against the Golden State Warriors. In a pre-game interview, Nash said that "Harden had some irritating pain in his right hand, he underwent an MRI, his right hand suffered a strain, and he would decide whether to play before the game according to his feelings." In the end, Harden decided not to play, and many Nets fans believed that Harden's choice was right, because Nash did not care about injured players.
Even more hilarious was in an interview on Jan. 29, in which Nash said Harden was in the team's training session and that he would play against the Warriors. A day later Harden decided not to play before the game, is this not very ridiculous? The manager doesn't know if Harden is playing. On January 30, when Nash talked about Harden's hamstring injury, he said that he no longer worried about the hamstring injury as a problem affecting Harden.
In addition, Nash also refused to talk about Joe Harris's ankle problem, and a reporter asked Nash if he was worried that Joha's ankle injury would continue into the playoffs. Nash's response was: "I hope this issue will be resolved soon, but it's beyond my scope". The Nets' transparency about players' injuries was too low, which sparked dissatisfaction among reporters.
Nets reporter Billy Reinhardt directly disagreed with Nash's remarks, and Nash said it was not surprising that Irving worked part-time, which was normal for us. Our squad has been in and out a lot over the past 18 months, so it's no surprise that Irving is part-time. It's clearly a fallacy that only Irving in the league plays part-time.
In addition, he also said: "We only learned of Harden's hand injury before tonight's game, and we have been doing MRI for a few days. We don't know about Joha either. We desperately need to know the transparency of the team when it comes to injuries, which is unfair to fans.
The Nets hadn't talked about Harden's hand injury the other night, and shortly before the game, harden was officially announced to have injured his hand, which made us worry that Harden was absent due to a hamstring injury. Of course, this may also be the design of Harden's rotation, but this makes fans nervous, especially considering Harden's hamstring problems last season.
(Feeling that the Management of the Nets is chaotic, the coaching staff has insufficient voice, and the players have begun to deviate from Germany)
