The Nets are going to miss the postseason for the first time in seven years, and Richard Jefferson blames it on the amount of time it took for the team to click down the stretch, according to the New York Daily News.

"This is not a reflection type thing," Jefferson said. "This is not a moment you sit back and stare at all the things that have happened. We've had a struggle this season, didn't play the way we would have liked. It's been disappointing. We got Devin and those guys, it took us awhile to click, and we still haven't gotten into a rhythm and here we are."

"Your guess is as good as mine," Jefferson said when asked about what the future holds for New Jersey. "Three years ago I was surprised I was here, so who am I to judge the direction of the team? I don't try to do other people's jobs."
