As the Chicago Bulls gear up for a second United Center Derrick Rose Night in as many years, this time to retire his jersey (a thing they could have easily done the first time around, had Michael Reinsdorf gotten his act together), they’ve been ramping up the hype machine.
It’s a good thing, too, because the on-court product has been woefully inconsistent. On Friday night, the Bulls blew a fourth-quarter comeback attempt against the lowly Brooklyn Nets , thanks in large part to a pair of ...
The Brooklyn Nets returned home to face the Chicago Bulls on Friday night after completing a miraculous 3-game road trip. Miraculously, the Nets lost all games to teams with a combined 39-70 record. Perhaps it’s a sign that this year’s attempt at tanking is blessed by the basketball gods, but that’s no consolation to Head […]
The 19-21 Chicago Bulls head to New York on Friday night, where they’ll play the first game of a home-and-home clash with the 11-27 Brooklyn Nets.
On Wednesday, Chicago barely survived a Utah Jazz team that would clearly love to lose as much as possible down this season’s home stretch. A botched Keyonte George jumper was all that stood between the Bulls and overtime, against a Jazz club missing two of its best three players. Utah was sitting ex-Bull Lauri Markkanen with an illness (he als...

Nothing doing in the win column. The Brooklyn Nets went to New Orleans to face the Pelicans on Wednesday night to wrap up their three game road trip. It was close, but the Nets ultimately fell short by three points. The L was their fifth in a row. The opponent tonight is hanging around the […]
Winning isn’t the assignment in Brooklyn right now. Growth is. This Nets team is unlikely to be competitive today, tomorrow, or anytime soon. Unless patience becomes a box-score category. The process may be frustrating, but Jordi Fernández appears to be the ideal coach for the long, unglamorous road ahead. The second-year coach is built for […]

The Dallas Mavericks (15-25) welcomed the Brooklyn Nets (11-25) to Texas on Monday night. Both teams are struggling to the point that if you combined their win totals, it still wouldn’t be enough to claim first place in either conference. The Mavs at least came away with a 113-105 win. Let’s get to the grades! […]
The Dallas Mavericks defeated the Brooklyn Nets 113-105 Monday night in Dallas, snapping a two-game losing streak and bouncing back from one of their more dispiriting efforts of the season Saturday night against Chicago.

The Dallas Mavericks (15-25) defeated the Brooklyn Nets (11-25) on Monday night by a score of 113-105. In a contest between two floundering teams, the shorthanded Mavericks were able to grind it out and prevail.

We’ve often described the Dallas Mavericks as “lost” this season, even with more wins to their name than our boys from the corner of Atlantic and Flatbush. Whether that’s due to front office turnover, the mindless trade that warranted it, or the classic excuse, injuries, there’s no arguing these silver stallions have galloped off-course in […]
The Nets will look to recuperate in their second game of a back-to-back, this time against the Dallas Mavericks.

One also had Luka […]

“It comes with responsibility,” Jordi Fernández said post-game Sunday. “Responsibility to take the shot when you open, responsibility to box out when you have to. Obviously, the 19 second chance points — once again, if we don’t rebound, we don’t win. We’ve been the number one defensive rebounding team for a stretch of games where […]
