As reported by Ira Winderman of […]

James Harden had another pedestrian showing in the Brooklyn Nets’ latest loss to the Miami Heat, but he wants everyone to understand why.

We’re only four games into the 2021-22 season, but Brooklyn Nets star James Harden is not playing up to the lofty standards the perennial MVP candidate has set for himself over the years.

Kevin Durant is a pretty serious guy. However, the Brooklyn Nets superstar could not help but smile when he was recently asked to comment about being included in the prestigious NBA Top 75 list. KD was fielding an interview following the Nets’ 104-90 win over the Washington Wizards on Monday when the topic of the […]

Steve Nash knows James Harden is not yet at 100 percent after spending the summer recovering from his hamstring injury. For the Brooklyn Nets coach, however, this shouldn’t be a cause of concern. According to Nash, he sees Harden recapturing his form sooner rather than later. And what does this mean for the rest of […]

Kyrie Irving has said he does not want to become a distraction for the Brooklyn Nets this season.

There’s a new conspiracy theory going around involving Brooklyn Nets guard Kyrie Irving – but this time it’s not one he came up with himself.

The Charlotte Hornets franchise was founded in 1988, but they never started a season 3-0 until they won their third straight game over the Brooklyn Nets on Sunday, 111-95. Out of their three wins this season, this is easily the most impressive. Beating a team featuring two guys that are essentially locks for the Hall […]

It’s only three games into the 2021-22 season, but it’s safe to say the foul-baiting technique that Brooklyn Nets star James Harden has mastered over the years is officially dead–or at least nearing absolute extinction.

The NBA’s two biggest dramas came together on Friday as the Nets visited the Sixers. The Nets, of course, are without Kyrie Irving who has no return-to-play timeline.

Their defensive execution really picked up as the game unfolded. […]

It’s no secret that James Harden is one of the best three-point shooters the NBA has ever seen. While he might not be chucking them up at the same rate as his Houston Rockets days, the Nets superstar is still lethal from long range. During Thursday night’s contest against the Philadelphia 76ers, Harden reached an […]

Ben Simmons wants out of Philadelphia. The Brooklyn Nets are reportedly open to the idea of trading Kyrie Irving amid his anti-vax stance.
