Nets Hold Players-Only Meeting, Then Skip Out on Media

Remember how good the Nets were supposed to be after acquiring those pieces during the off-season? Weren’t they supposed to be a top 4 team in the East and legit contenders? Sure, it’s still early, but none of that stuff is panning out.

In fact, it’s so bad that they bailed on the media last night out of frustration.

The team’s locker room remained closed for 25 minutes following the game while a players-only meeting was held.

When the room finally opened to the media, it was a ghost town, with several players having already left and team leaders Paul Pierce and Kevin Garnett — who were a combined 10-for-31 in the game — eventually blowing off the assembled media.

“Just talking about the game, and what we’ve got to figure out,” Joe Johnson told The Post about the meeting. “We’ve just got to get some chemistry, because when we get stagnant to where we can’t get a bucket, we have to have something we can go to and we’ve just got to figure it out.”
