Long Island has now lost seven straight after last night’s 113-93 defeat to the Cleveland Charge, a season-ending seven straight … and that’s a problem with G League playoffs days away. They are short-handed with none of the Flatbush Five, the Nets’ three two-ways, nor their one 10-day available. And now, the G League playoffs […]
Back home. The Brooklyn Nets wrapped up their four game West Coast road trip with a late night affair against the Los Angeles Lakers. The Nets gave the Lakers a good fight, but not good enough to come away with a win. The losing streak is at ten. The opponent tonight is counting the clock […]
We’re almost there! The Nets have just eight games remaining on their schedule in the regular season. This isn’t just the end of a season for the Nets…it’s the end of a two year “tank run” we knew wouldn’t be fun, but we had to go through. It’s the end of a jail sentence. The […]
The Brooklyn Nets have not been a physically imposing team in a long time. That lack of phsyicality has been a common criticism of Sean Marks’ rosters in his decade-long tenure as GM, though there have been a couple notable exceptions. Andre Drummond and Day’Ron Sharpe aren’t just strong on paper; they’re two of the […]
Credit to the fearless Brooklyn Nets fans who pushed through another late night, staying up into the early hours of Saturday to watch a team grind through the final game of a rough West Coast road trip.

It’s “must lose” stretch for the Nets. They want to get the best odds in May 10 lottery, maybe even secure that last envelope Mark Tatum, the NBA’s deputy commissioner, opens that night. At the moment, they are so close to success, sitting alone in second, one game behind the Indiana Pacers. BUT… Per various […]
The Long Island Nets returned to their home court one more time for the regular season as they faced off with their old friend, Tyrese Martin, and the Delaware Blue Coats.

I was born and raised in Manhattan, just a couple years before the New Jersey Nets leapt directly from the basement to consecutive NBA Finals appearances. I remember Mikki Moore as my power forward, not Kenyon Martin, and I never experienced or felt particularly connected to the Jersey Pride dripping off the best Nets teams […]

Those of you who reading this in the morning, first off, no one is blaming you. Hanging with this […]
Late night Nets in Golden State! They have 17 wins to their name and most fans are really just holding out hope for May. Until then it’s just an excruciating wait game. Sure, we’ll miss it when it’s gone, but these late games mid-tank are a brutal reminder how meaningless these games are – or […]
The Long Island Nets returned to their home court on Tuesday night for their second-to-last home game of the season.

The days all blend in to each other. The Brooklyn Nets continued their western road trip with a visit to Oregon to face the Portland Trailblazers. The Nets didn’t have much of anything for the play-in bound Blazers and lost by 35 points. The team’s current losing streak is at eight. And if you’re keeping […]
The Brooklyn Nets are giving Malachi Smith an extended look. After inking him to a 10-day contract on March 13, the Nets are renewing the combo guard’s 10-day deal, per Hoopshype’s Michael Scotto.

Jordi Fernández was a big fan of the Brooklyn Nets’ performance against the Sacramento Kings on Sunday evening, a hard-fought game that resulted in a 126-122 Kings victory. The head coach described it as “very positive,” and it was easy to see why. Ben Saraf turned in a career-best performance as did Malachi Smith, Ziaire […]
The Nets lost (or won) depending on how you look at it against the Kings. We’re in the final stretch and guys are going down. Egor Demin is done for the year, Michael Porter Jr. is out at least 2-3 weeks, and Danny Wolf left the game with an ankle sprain. We’ll see what these […]
When the Nets traded Cam J0hnson for Michael Porter Jr. and the Denver Nuggets unprotected first rounder in 2032, there was much weeping and gnashing of teeth. Renting of garments. The whole biblical megilla. No excess verbiage was squandered. It was b-a-d, double-bad, bad. Who can forget Bill Simmons? He seemed actually angered by the […]
While it isn’t ideal to want your team to lose, the Nets kind of did what they were supposed to last night against the Sacramento Kings. After a back and forth outing at the Golden 1 Center, Brooklyn lost 126-122, which means they are now one and a half games ahead of the Kings and […]
For the Long Island Nets, not much is going right at this moment.

However, a stroke of luck did favor them Sunday evening. Despite coming up just […]
Today is one of the biggest days of the season for the Brooklyn Nets for the lamest of reasons. As the regular season inches closer to its conclusion, all moves made in the “tank race” fall under increased magnification. With Brooklyn facing the Sacramento Kings, who sat just a half game behind Brooklyn entering tonight’s […]
While all eyes are likely on Darryn Peterson headlining against St. John’s, the Nets are quietly playing the most important game of the season strictly because of lottery odds.
