Latest news and updates about the Nets
You know the Spurs have reached a new level from even a month ago when they can look tired and a step slow, and still blow out a bad team (remember, playing down to opponents used to be a thing of theirs). After a hard-fought, exhausting win in Toronto the night before, the Spurs avoided […]
The Dallas Mavericks (21-36) are home for the first time in a month and on Thursday night they host the Sacramento Kings (13-47). Dallas is staring at their least welcomed winstreak in years, defeating the Pacers then the Brookly Nets. The Kings actually beat the Grizzlies this week, which was their first win since one […]
Welcome to the Game Thread. Veterans of the Game Thread know how we do things around here, but for all you newbies we have a few rules. Our community guidelines apply and basically say be cool, no personal attacks, don’t troll and don’t swear too much. The Spurs are on a 10-game winning streak, and tonight they […]
The Nets have lost five straight. The Spurs have won 10 straight. The organization that Marks ascended from 10 years ago remains the gold standard. Let’s see what they (& Wemby) have in store for Thursday night. 🏀 KEY INFO WHO: Brooklyn Nets (15-42) vs. San Antonio Spurs (42-16)WHEN: 7:30 PM ETWHERE: Barclays CenterWATCH: YES Network 💬 DISCUSSION Share […]
More of the same. The Brooklyn Nets came home following a three game road trip to take on the Dallas Mavericks. Brooklyn lost their fifth game in a row as the Mavs came away with a 123-114 win. In the race that most everyone cares about, the Nets are third. Either way, these games will […]
The San Antonio Spurs will be on the second game of a back-to-back after a tough win against the Toronto Raptors on Wednesday night. The Spurs needed a fourth-quarter comeback to take down Toronto, and will now be on short rest against the Brooklyn Nets. Brooklyn and San Antonio’s records are almost exactly flipped: the […]
It’s been said that hindsight is 20/20. Is it? It likely depends on how far removed you are from what you’re trying to see. The past is a vacuous concept. Anything you do is in the past a milesecond later. Perhaps it’s most accurate to say that hindsight will eventually be 20/20. Is it time […]
Coming into Tuesday’s NBA slate, the Dallas Mavericks (21-36) sat seventh from the bottom of the league standings. Just the Utah Jazz (18-40), the Washington Wizards (16-40), the New Orleans Pelicans (16-42), the Brooklyn Nets (15-42), the Indiana Pacers (15-43) and the sad Sacramento Kings (13-46) entered play with worse records than the Mavericks. With […]
When the Dallas Mavericks play, it is guaranteed to be a close game, regardless of the hectic travel conditions the Mavericks faced. While tanking is the preffered strategy going forward, the Mavericks will still win games against the truly bad teams, such as the Nets. Unless they decide to fully commit to resting and benching […]
The Mavericks cruised past the Nets 123-114. The Mavericks were led by a dominant front-court effort with 22 points from Marvin Bagley, and Naji Marshall had 19. The Nets lost to Michael Porter Jr.’s 26. The Mavericks closed the first quarter up 36–29, fueled by Naji Marshall’s downhill scoring and Daniel Gafford’s interior finishes, while […]
The Dallas Mavericks defeated (21-36) the Brooklyn Nets 123-114 at Barclays Center on Tuesday, nabbing just their seventh road win of the season. In a game that came together a bit helter-skelter after both teams had to fly in on the day of because of the blizzard conditions along the East coast, Dallas built enough […]
The snow piled up quickly in NYC, the sidewalks are slick, and the Nets are finally back in their own building following a four-game losing streak — dating back to Feb. 11. They watched a brutal 24–2 run from Atlanta and dropped the last one in the fourth. Here’s the reality: they have 52.1% chance […]
The Dallas Mavericks (20-36) visit the Brooklyn Nets (15-41) to participate in a Tuesday evening basketball contest for the ages. Or not. We’ll see. Dallas finally won a game after losing 10 straight, beating the shameless Indiana Pacers. Brooklyn is no better though; they’ve lost four straight and are really not good at basketball. In […]
Within the Nets’ organization, player development is a priority. When you’re rebuilding, it has to be. That’s a given. But it’s not just about the obvious development track. Whether a rookie or veteran enters the building, growth is prioritized — especially from within. While the focus is rightly on the Flatbush Five, the Long Island […]
Back home to a snowstorm! The Brooklyn Nets wrapped up their three game road trip with an afternoon affair against the Atlanta Hawks. Brooklyn had a lead for much of the game, but the Hawks closed the game on a 24-2 run to hand the Nets their fourth consecutive loss. Brooklyn leaves the road and […]
Get ready for another dose of irredeemable basketball on Tuesday when the Dallas Mavericks (20-36) travel to the Barclays Center to square off with the Brooklyn Nets (15-41) in a game sure to rival Sunday’s tilt at the Indiana Pacers for sheer lack of import. With the Mavericks’ recent 10-game losing streak in the rearview, […]
The Nets are back in action after the All-Star break. Despite a worthy campaign from Michael Porter Jr and a Rising Stars appearance from Egor Dëmin, it was a break that for the most part excluded the Nets. Whether Brooklyn deserved more All-Star-related love or not, they’re going to march on now, and we’ll do […]
The Utah Jazz are going to be in a very tight tanking race to end this season. Right now, they’re competing with the Kings, Pacers, Nets, Pelicans, and Wizards to jump into the top-5 come lottery night. A team to watch is the New Orleans Pelicans, who are not incentivized to tank at all this […]
The New Orleans Pelicans picked up a big win on Saturday night, bringing their record to 16-42 and pushing, if just for a moment, the Brooklyn Nets to the third-worst record in the league at 15-40. And again, they’re not even tanking! Unfortunately for Adam Silver’s pariahs, the true tanking teams, matching the ineptitude of […]
The Atlanta Hawks were in action on Sunday afternoon to face the Brooklyn Nets. The Hawks were coming off a rough loss to the Miami Heat on Friday, where they were dominated in the second half of the game. Two days later, they faced up against a Nets team that hasn’t played the best this […]

Back-to-back, and back-to-back losses. The Brooklyn Nets made a visit to Oklahoma City to face the Thunder. Technically it was closer, but the result was all the same as the Nets lost 105-86. It was their third straight loss. The opponent tonight is looking to bounce back. The Atlanta Hawks were home to take on […]
It was a mixed day Friday, as it often is, in the development game as the Long Island Nets lost at the buzzer to the Squadron in Birmingham, 104-102. With 0.6 seconds remaining Trey Alexander’s game-winner sent the Nets back to Long Island. Neither of the two Brooklyn players assigned to the G League affiliate […]
We’re all coming around on the Brooklyn Nets’ 2025 NBA Draft, so widely mocked that the Phoenix Suns didn’t mind gasping at it on social media. The Nets themselves are probably feeling better about their draft too, if you believe last summer’s rumors that Brooklyn tried to trade one or two of their five first-round […]
Taking down the Brooklyn Nets doesn’t require much these days. The Oklahoma City Thunder did it tonight without the league MVP, his lead running mate, and the rhythm of recent play. The Nets gave OKC their first game in over a week this evening. Brooklyn, of course, had this one as back-to-back. It was also […]
