The most comprehensive source for news about the Brooklyn Nets.
When the Brooklyn Nets first played the Boston Celtics this season, I wrote about how both teams were at or near the same competitive skill level. After all, it was way back in late November and Boston was a mediocre 7-7. They sat just two spots ahead in of Brooklyn in the East, and were […]
The Nets have now lost six straight games after a 16-point loss vs. San Antonio Spurs. Given the circumstances — 15-43 record, second night of back-to-back, and a tough opponent in Boston — it’s hard for any Nets fan to feel confident heading into this one. The Celtics are surprising the world yet again and […]
A lot is going on in Long Island! Even before Friday morning’s moves that sent Grant Nelson to Brooklyn on a 10-day, returned Ben Saraf to the big club, and sent Drake Powell to the G League, the Nets’ G League affiliate lost a tight one, 119-116, to the Grand Rapids Gold Thursday night at […]
The party rolls on. The Brooklyn Nets hosted the San Antonio Spurs on Thursday night at Barclays Center. The Nets put up a fight, but the Spurs were too much to handle and gave the Nets their sixth consecutive loss. The opponent tonight has a solid hold on the second seed in the Eastern Conference. […]
The Brooklyn Nets are signing Grant Nelson to their squad on a 10-day contract. Nelson has spent the season with Brooklyn’s G-League squad, the Long Island Nets, on a regular G League contract. Mike Scotto of Hoopshype was first with the news … The Nets later confirmed it. The signing will give the Nets six […]
Victor Wembanyama steps out of the visitors’ locker room, hunches through the tunnel, and Barclays Center greets him with a shriek. A mass circles the east end of the court as the Alien starts to warm up. Rarely is a nickname — bland it may be — this fitting. Wemby clutches a basketball, balancing on […]
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 […]
The Greek Freakout is having a respite right now. He still hasn’t officially asked for a trade and still expresses his love for Cream City. Most of Milwaukee’s attention as an organization is about filling their roster with players Giannis Antetokounmpo would want to play with going forward, the newly acquired Cam Thomas being their […]
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 […]
Maybe Ben Saraf is going to follow the path of teenage teammates Egor Demin and Nolan Traore and change pundits — and fans’ — minds on his prospects. Ben Saraf played one of his best games of the G League season, as he notched 32 points in Long Island’s 116-109 win over the Maine Celtics […]
Egor Demin is still in the top ten of the NBA’s Rookie Rankings, at No. 9, one spot below where he was drafted. Still the second fastest player to 100 3-pointers in NBA history, behind only Kon Knueppel. And yes, he’s still averaging double figures. Still a winner in the All-Star Break’s Rising Stars Challenge. […]
The Brooklyn Nets and Dallas Mavericks each faced a far more daunting opponent than each other before tonight. For those unaware, Mother Nature dumped over a foot of snow on New York City Sunday afternoon through Monday morning. Unable to fly in ahead of time, neither team arrived in the Big Apple before this morning. […]
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 […]
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 […]
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 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 Brooklyn Nets enter Sunday’s matinee affair having lost three straight games. They haven’t been particularly close. Perhaps a little road cookin’ can get these guys going. 🏀 KEY INFO WHEN: 3:30 PM ET WHO: Brooklyn Nets (15-40) at Atlanta Hawks (27-31) WATCH: YES NETWORK 💬 DISCUSSION Share your thoughts and react, but please be respectful.

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 […]
The saddest story at the Winter Olympics in Milan/Cortina maybe that of Lindsay Von who while seeking her second gold and fourth Olympic medal blew out her ACL while training for the downhill. Although she tried to ski through it, Von crashed and fell, ending her pursuit. It was tragically not her first encounter with […]
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 […]
It wasn’t a pretty return from the break, and it won’t get any easier on Friday. The injury report is stacked on both sidelines. Second night of a back to back only means the tank engines get a little louder! The Flatbush Five remains the Flatbush Four with Saraf on Long Island. 🏀 KEY INFO […]
Sean Marks was in a bit of panic last week during a meeting between Adam Silver and the NBA’s 30 general managers, per The Athletic’s Joe Vardon and Sam Amick. Evan Wasch, an executive vice president with the NBA, had been laying out the league’s ideas for anti-tanking measures that could be implemented next season […]
