The Brooklyn Nets are the biggest disappointment in the NBA this season and there doesn’t appear to be an end in sight.

Recently, rumors hinted Kidd had lost the players in his locker room – the suggestion likely stemming from a profanity laced tirade Kidd launched after two consecutive blowout losses earlier this week.

Kidd though was having none of it during a recent interview with The Brooklyn Game, suggesting he can’t answer ‘what you guys make up‘:

"“I just coach and get my guys ready,” Kidd shrugged, flashing a smile at the podium following the team’s 104-93 victory over the Milwaukee Bucks. “I can’t answer to what you guys make up. I’m sorry. I don’t have an answer to that question.”"

Undoubtedly, there are things being reported out of the Nets camp that aren’t true – we understand that. However, where there’s smoke there is often fire and given the comments we’ve seen from players in recent weeks, it doesn’t appear to be all rainbows and gum drops in the Nets’ locker room either.

How truthful are the rumors that Kidd has lost the team? We likely won’t know unless a coaching change is made, but it’s clear there are problems that have yet to be resolved.
