I like his kicks the […]

Currently at 10-4, the Brooklyn Nets have been relatively impressive to start the 2021-22 campaign.

What cannot be denied right now is that the absence of Kyrie […]

Milwaukee Bucks star Giannis Antetokounmpo and Brooklyn Nets guard James Harden have had some animosity for awhile now.

However, Antetokounmpo has evidently cleared the air […]

Brooklyn Nets superstar Kevin Durant will be facing his former team, the Golden State Warriors, on Tuesday. It will be a special night for KD, who won two NBA titles with the Dubs.

The Brooklyn Nets visited the Oklahoma City Thunder on Sunday.

The city of Oklahoma will surely bring up some memories for Kevin Durant and James Harden. Both players played their early […]

After knocking off the Oklahoma City Thunder, the Brooklyn Nets are now 10-4 and tied for first place in the East standings with the Washington Wizards. The game may have had a little something extra for Kevin Durant and James Harden since they both began their careers with the Thunder. Technically, KD was drafted by […]

While the Brooklyn Nets may be missing Kyrie Irving, they would be more than delighted to see Patty Mills thriving with the team in his stead. Mills has proven to be a beneficial signing for the Nets when they got him during the offseason, especially amid the Irving situation. Kyrie is currently in exile as […]

The 2021-22 NBA season is still fairly young, with almost every team playing at least 12 games. While some things we expected are happening, there are always surprises. Some of the positives include the Washington Wizards’ 9-3 start, Paul George’s MVP-caliber play, and the excitement surrounding the Charlotte Hornets. However, just like in every season […]

Despite an up-and-down start to their campaign, the Brooklyn Nets are still considered as the favorites to go all the way and win the championship this season. This is thanks in large part to the dominance of James Harden and Kevin Durant who for the most part, have been nothing short of outstanding early on. […]

The Brooklyn Nets (9-4) knocked off the New Orleans Pelicans Friday night. It was closer than they would have liked (120-112), as they let the now 1-12 Pel’s hang around.

Brooklyn Nets star Kevin Durant is off to a scorching hot start in 2021/22 and is showing absolutely no signs of slowing down. The big man is currently leading the NBA in scoring, averaging 29.4 points per night while also grabbing 8.4 boards and dishing out 5.2 assists. In the process, KD has already reached […]

Perhaps the most talked-about development in the NBA this offseason is the amendment of the league’s rules on foul-baiting. Specifically, the league introduced rules prohibiting offensive players from drawing fouls via “non-basketball moves”. These moves include launching one’s body into the defender while shooting, unnatural direction changes to initiate contact with the defender, and other […]

Brooklyn Nets superstar Kevin Durant speaks out on why James Harden wasn’t the main reason they won against the New Orleans Pelicans. Harden had one of his best games this season on Friday night, scoring 39 points and 12 assists while knocking down a huge dagger late in the game to secure the 120-112 road […]

So much has been made this season about James Harden’s slow start, so his exploding for 39 points, five rebounds and 12 assists on top of 6-of-10 from beyond the arc and 11-of-15 from the line must have made the Brooklyn Nets’ win against the New Orleans Pelicans extra sweet. Oh baby, James Harden is […]

It has been seven full seasons since Kevin Durant was named regular season MVP. Of course, the 2014 MVP also boasts two NBA Finals MVPs in back-to-back seasons in 2017 and 2018.

The Brooklyn Nets have had a few pleasant surprises so far this season. You’re probably already familiar with the former San Antonio Spurs duo of Patty Mills and LaMarcus Aldridge. Both have impressed through the season’s early portion. But there is another offseason addition who hasn’t been on the mainstream radar quite as often: DeAndre’ […]

When the Brooklyn Nets (8-4) first acquired LaMarcus Aldridge via buyout market last season, they probably didn’t expect this level of play from the 36-year-old. The seven-time All-Star abruptly retired after appearing in just five games for Brooklyn because of concerns related to an irregular heartbeat last season. At that point the possibility he might become […]

LaMarcus Aldridge came up big for the Brooklyn Nets on Wednesday in a 123-90 blowout win over the Orlando Magic. Aldridge’s strong performance off the bench earned the praise of teammate Kevin Durant, who may have just revealed his true feelings on Kyrie Irving. KD had nothing but praise for Aldridge, who logged 21 points, […]

The Brooklyn Nets are not here to complain. But Steve Nash admitted something pretty intriguing about the impact Kyrie Irving‘s absence has had on his squad. Now of course, Brooklyn knows that they have a better roster than most teams in the NBA. But they also know that since assembling what many (accurately) labeled as […]

There is no Kyrie Irving around. James Harden has had significant struggles with his return to play from an injury and the new rules targeting non-basketball moves. But with those two seismic hurdles, the Brooklyn Nets cannot afford to slack in other departments. There’s one area where the Nets are really really slacking, and it […]

There’s no denying that Brooklyn Nets superstar Kyrie Irving isn’t the most popular player in the NBA right now. As a matter of fact, in some ways, Kyrie has been painted as somewhat of a villain for many years now. The fact that he’s been very vocal about standing against the COVID-19 vaccine has only […]

It has been a rough go for 2018 NBA MVP James Harden so far in the 2021-22 season. While the biggest story in Nets Land this year has been the absence of Kyrie Irving, things have not gone especially well for Harden. Some people are even beginning to wonder about a few nightmare scenarios, a […]

What would the world be without another Kyrie Irving story? Much has been said about the polarizing situation of the Brooklyn Nets star and his adamant refusal to take the COVID-19 vaccine.

The Brooklyn Nets fell to the Chicago Bulls, 118-95 on Monday. The final score makes it look a little less competitive than it really was.
