“We cannot get to the point where we’re in position to get the win but then we make mistakes that controllable,” head coach Jordi Fernández The first-year head coach also shouldered his part for the loss. Fernández mentioned being “better” with his substitutions and “cleaner” with his end-of-game play calling.

“Like I told the guys, it is my fault,” he said. “I ran Dennis 12 minutes in the fourth. I didn’t give him a break. That’s how your execution goes down. That’s how your defense goes down. I didn’t give Cam Thomas breaks, and then, at the end, we paid for it.” Thomas last checked into the game with 8:37 left in the fourth quarter and didn’t sub back out. The same applies to Schröder, who got into the game about 40 seconds later.Brooklyn is not good yet — but that was not the expectation for this season.
