How the Brooklyn Nets turned their season around
The Brooklyn Nets were awful.

Per Cleaning the Glass, the Wolves posted a 137 offensive rating in that one, grabbing 47% of their […]
Jordi Fernandez promises Ben Saraf will be ‘great NBA player’
Back before the NBA Draft in June, Jordi Fernandez made it known in scouting meetings that he liked the Israeli point guard Ben Saraf.

Synergy: Nets, Liberty ties with Alibaba grow in China and beyond
Joe Tsai is not reluctant to talk about his ambitions for the Brooklyn Nets in China. At a little-noticed seminar during the NBA China Games in October, the Nets owner made that clear.

Nets outwork 76ers for second straight win, 114-106, in Philly
Even without the win totals, talent, or even fan pull in their own home city, the Brooklyn Nets pride themselves on their ability to show up for work every single day.

LIVE DISCUSSION: Brooklyn Nets at Philadelphia 76ers, 7:00 PM ET
Sunday night was a reminder that for the Nets: Anything is possible when they’re locked in collectively on the defensive side of the ball. No matter who’s on the floor.

Shams: NBA wants to make tanking harder … unlikely to affect Nets
The “T” word is a no-no in most NBA front offices. It conjures up teams willfully losing games to get better draft position or avoid having to give up a protected pick. GMs and others would prefer to call their long-term strategy “flexibility for sustained success” explain the difference between tanking and rebuilding. Tanking is […]

Nets vs. 76ers preview: Atlantic Division holiday bout

Ben Saraf explodes for 40 in G League Showcase, earning recall to Brooklyn

MIchael Porter Jr. is having the time of his life and that success is driving yet another debate in Nets World fan base between the tankers who want nothing less than one of the three franchise-changers at the top of the 2026 Draft and those tanking skeptics who want to let things play out, let […]
Nets defense shines again vs the Raptors, winning 96-81
“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. […]
LIVE DISCUSSION: Toronto Raptors at Brooklyn Nets, 6:00 PM ET

Long Island’s 25 turnovers prove costly as Nets lose to Mexico City in Showcase
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 […]
Nets vs. Raptors preview: headed north to meet cold team
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. […]
How NBA All-Star voting works in 2025 — and where Nets fit in
NBA All-Star voting has changed over time, but this season’s process looks quite similar to last year’s.

Injuries, illness, flashes too in Brooklyn Nets Rookie Report — No. 6
Sports fandom is increasingly an exercise in mock GM’ing. The rise of fantasy sports certainly played a role as well as the shift from analysis in mainstream sports media to trade/free agency rumors and clips of “debate shows” on YouTube Shorts, or maybe it’s just the technocratic optimization of pro sports … along with every […]
Brooklyn Nets drop sludge-fest to Miami Heat, 106-95
It’s become old news: The Brooklyn Nets of today are not nearly as helpless as the black-and-white outfit that both began the season 0-7 and were somehow less competitive than their record suggested.

Danny Wolf diplomatic in discussing ‘Jewish Jokic’ nickname
Draymond Green was lamenting how pundits and fans are attaching one descriptor or another to players who like Nikola Jokic are mutli-talented seven-footers or near seven-footers.

Nets vs. Heat preview: Rested and ready
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.
