“Defense wins championships” is a cliché as old as you’ll find in sports. That might stem from older fans, nostalgic for low scores and clinging to what they grew up on. People might just say it at the sake of sounding different since average viewers are often more engaged by offense, regardless of the sport. […]
The Nets are back again after another short break, looking for a bounce-back performance tonight against a Raptors team that has struggled to maintain consistency lately. This is the third meeting this season between the teams, with Toronto winning the previous two. KEY INFO INJURY REPORT Toronto Raptors Brooklyn Nets Please be respectful with your […]
Nolan Traore had a decent game all around in the high altitude of Mexico City Saturday, but his five turnovers proved to be costly as Long Island fell to Mexico City, 111-102, at the G League Winter Showcase in Orlando. He even flirted with a triple double running the point but the 6’5” French man […]
Jordi had said it best after Brooklyn’s 106-95 loss to the Miami Heat. “Little mistakes that you can correct, and shots going in or not — I’m happy with the looks that we had that didn’t go in. So sometimes, a little bit of that is the difference, right?” Thank you for the quote Collin. […]

Less than 48 hours ago, Miami Heat rookie Kasparas Jakucionis had played just a total of 54 seconds as a rookie — which came in a 17-point blowout against the Los Angeles Clippers earlier this month. Due to myriad backcourt injuries, however, he received his opportunity. On Thursday against the Brooklyn Nets, he played eight […]

After a nice four-day rest, the Nets are returning to action after their 127-82 victory over the Milwaukee Bucks, tied for the biggest win in franchise history. What made the victory so great, besides four of the beloved Flatbush 5 getting some significant NBA minutes, was the fact that all but three players reached double […]

With the NBA Cup out of the way, we are now back to our regularly scheduled programming of Dallas Mavericks basketball. The Mavericks (10-17) managed a split of their freshly assigned NBA Cup games, beating the Brooklyn Nets by eight before falling to the Utah Jazz on Monday by a 140-133 final. Awaiting the Mavericks […]
Everyone knew — or should have known — that when the Brooklyn Nets drafted five players in the first round — at Nos. 8, 19, 22, 26 or 27 — back in June that development was going to be different. For one thing, no team had ever tried it before. For another, all but one […]
The Mavericks were 1-1 this past week and now sit in 10th place in the West. They beat Brooklyn (119-111) at home on Friday before going to Utah and losing a heartbreaker to the Jazz (140-133). Cooper Flagg led the team in scoring during these two games with 32 points per game. Daniel Gafford (ankle) […]
Welcome to Week 3 of The Long Forecast on NetsDaily. As each week goes by, more tape on these prospects for the 2026 NBA draft class continues to surface, and they could go down as one of the most talented classes over the past decade. Where do the Nets’ picks sit? Since last week’s column, […]

Read our full summary of the game here and catch a six-minute audio recap on the Bucks+ podcast Bucks In Six Minutes below. Fire Doc. […]
Even without Jordi Fernández, the Nets put up a high score in Big Buck Hunter tonight. Returning home for their second game of alternate programming to NBA Cup, Brooklyn secured their most dominant win of the season. Correction! Their most dominant win in franchise history! It was also the first career head coaching win for […]
Whatever good vibes came from the Milwaukee Bucks’ upset win on Thursday were summarily executed by the six-win Brooklyn Nets in embarrassing, ugly, and unforgivable fashion. Even without Giannis, a blowout to one of the East’s worst teams by record—not leading at any point—that’s missing Cam Thomas is inexcusable. No one Net had more than […]
A good showing but not enough to bring it home. The Brooklyn Nets went to Texas for a showdown with the Dallas Mavericks. Brooklyn had a chance to win late, but the Mavs did just enough to hand the Nets a tough loss. The opponent tonight is trying to hang on. The season hasn’t gone […]
Coming off one of their best performances of the season—a 116-101 win over the red-hot Boston Celtics—the Milwaukee Bucks will look to win two in a row for just the third time this season when they play the Brooklyn Nets tonight at Barclays Center.
