This is Jalen Rose and the first, second, or third* time the Q-word has been used about the "Nets."

“The Nets quit. And, see, the thing about it – when I see KD joking with Jayson Tatum during the game [I didn't know about that.] and Jayson Tatum is having a historic series and he’s dominating him on both ends of the floor, that ain’t about him and KD. That’s about the other 14 guys.

And so when your best player is not taking it as serious as you hope they would in this situation, everybody else is just like ‘go ahead.’ And you saw layup after layup after layup, [you did] and before you know it it was the end of the game. It didn’t even seem like it was only a two possession game. It seemed like [the Nets] were down 15, because they quit.”
