Brooklyn Nets head coach Jordi Fernandez spoke to the New York Post about his team's disappointing start to the 2024-25 NBA season, which has seen them finish with a 0-4 record. The Nets are currently the only team in the Eastern Conference without a win, placing them among just two winless teams in the entire NBA, alongside the Sacramento Kings who are also 0-5.
In a recent game, the Nets narrowly lost to the Boston Celtics in an upset, but their loss was attributed to a buzzer-beating shot by Jayson Tatum. Speaking candidly, Fernandez admitted the disappointment of not defeating Boston, but expressed his satisfaction that his team managed to challenge one of the best Eastern Conference teams.
He emphasized the importance of playing with an edge rather than anxiety, and stressed the need to maintain consistent, correct performance. Fernandez also highlighted his belief in the team's process and the potential for a turning point. The Nets' head coach, who joined the team in the 2024-25 season, currently has a .274 win percentage.
While the poor start has raised concerns about his job security, Fernandez remains focused on player development as the team's long-term objective.
