In this article, we address the five biggest questions surrounding the Nets heading into this year. 5. Do the Nets make […]

Golden State Warriors star Stephen Curry knows firsthand just how dangerous the current iteration of the Boston Celtics is.

Training camp is just two weeks away and the Brooklyn Nets head into the 2022-23 season with a new-look rotation. The additions of Ben Simmons, Joe Harris, Royce O’Neale, T.J.

The Brooklyn Nets will have several new looks during the 2022-2023 season, unveiling two new uniforms in the last month alone. NBA teams, in partnership with Nike, release three alternate uniforms each year: City, Classic and Statement Editions.

The Golden State Warriors really did broach a trade this summer that could’ve brought Kevin Durant back to the Bay Area, an idea Stephen Curry whole-heartedly endorsed. Now that he’s re-committed to the Brooklyn Nets in wake of the Warriors winning another championship, though, criticism of Durant’s decision to bail on Golden State in 2019 […]

Kyrie Irving is one of the most controversial NBA players. ESPN’s Stephen A. Smith has not been shy about giving brutally honest takes on the Brooklyn Nets point guard. Smith once again shared an honest take on Irving in a recent ESPN First Take segment. But Smith only had positive things to say about Irving […]

Most of the focus surrounding the Brooklyn Nets this summer has been on Kyrie Irving and Kevin Durant. Irving’s contract negotiations and Durant’s trade request dominated national media throughout the offseason. But things have now cooled on both of those fronts. And through Brooklyn’s soap opera, some of the team’s smaller moves were easily overlooked. […]

Kevin Durant’s turn into villainy began when he spurned the Oklahoma City Thunder, the team that drafted him and teamed him up with dynamite point guard Russell Westbrook, for the Golden State Warriors in 2016, reinforcing a 73-win Warriors team that fell victim to a 3-1 comeback. Durant may have won big with the Warriors, […]

Rumors of the Golden State Warriors’ interest in trading for Kevin Durant, as Stephen Curry tells it, are true. And so is the notion Golden State’s franchise player would’ve welcomed his former teammate back to the Bay Area with open arms. In an exclusive interview with Matt Sullivan of Rolling Stone, set to be released […]

The dust has settled from the Kevin Durant trade request and the Brooklyn Nets once again have one of the top rosters in the NBA, at least on paper. A major part of that is the return of three-time All-Star Ben Simmons. It has been 15 months since Simmons last appeared in an NBA game. […]

Blake Griffin and Chandler Parsons are living the good life. Free from any worries about performing on the basketball court, the two now set out to make the most out of their untethered lives, and clearly, they are having loads of fun away from the professional spotlight. Seen backstage in Las Vegas vibing to Marshmello, […]

Kevin Durant shocked the basketball world earlier this summer when he demanded that Brooklyn Nets head coach Steve Nash and general manager Sean Marks be relieved from their respective posts. KD pretty much gave the organization an ultimatum as he made them choose between himself and Nash/Marks. His ploy didn’t work, though, and apparently, they’ve […]

The Brooklyn Nets have several roster spots to fill ahead of training camp. Could 10-time All-Star Carmelo Anthony be joining Kevin Durant, Kyrie Irving and Ben Simmons in Brooklyn?

2K ratings should never be a barometer of an NBA player’s skill. Yet again this proves to be a useful notion to uphold, especially after Nets guard Patty Mills, the Australian national basketball team legend, was given an undeserved absurdly low rating for NBA 2K23. Josh Giddey, the rising star of the Oklahoma City Thunder, […]

Brooklyn Nets superstar Kevin Durant thinks that his 96 rating in NBA 2K23 is “laughable” and he wasn’t shy about making his true feelings known. KD called out Ronnie 2K for what he feels is a complete travesty. Clearly, the former league MVP believes that he should have a much higher rating than what he’s […]

Training camp is just three weeks away as the new-look Brooklyn Nets inch closer to their 2022-2023 campaign. Things have been relatively quiet on the Nets front since the Markieff Morris and Yuta Watanabe signings last week. With that, I took some questions from NetsWorld in the first edition of my Nets mailbag. Who do […]

Brooklyn Nets star Kevin Durant has been on the receiving end of a massive Boston Celtics trolling after he complained about his NBA 2K23 rating.

Brooklyn Nets star Kevin Durant is a frequent Twitter user and when the NBA2K23 ratings came out on Tuesday, the future Hall of Famer wasn’t pleased with his 96 rating from Ronnie 2K, publicly calling him out: Aye @Ronnie2K I’m gonna need an explanation on why I’m not a 99? This has become laughable https://t.co/oySQUtcDP2 […]

The Brooklyn Nets approach 2022 training camp as a new-look team with several additions primed to provide a shakeup to the starting lineup.

There’s no denying that Brooklyn Nets superstar Kevin Durant is one of the most active NBA players on social media. He’s not only active, but he also has the tendency to respond to fans and critics alike on a regular basis. As such, one could say that KD is a bit of an authority when […]

Kyrie Irving has been through quite a lot in his career. He’s been on the receiving end of a ton of criticism as well through the years, and frankly, you have to say that to some extent, he’s brought it upon himself. Even Kyrie himself would agree with this notion. In a recent roundtable interview […]

Kevin Durant was the subject of a plentiful amount of trade rumors this offseason. But he ultimately worked things out with the Nets and will play in Brooklyn this season.

Simmons, who’s in attendance at Williams’ match on Friday, was shown on the U.S. Open jumbotron and was instantly booed by the […]

Kyrie Irving will go down as the owner of one of the best handles in the history of the sport. The fact that the Brooklyn Nets superstar is highly proficient in using both of his hands is perhaps the biggest reason behind his dribbling prowess. As it turns out, however, Irving actually went through quite […]

Lebron James shared his honest thoughts on former teammate and current Brooklyn Nets star Kyrie Irving on Friday. Irving recently got brutally honest in an episode of “Uninterrupted: The Shop.” And LeBron clearly took notice. “He’s truly so misunderstood! I love seeing his growth as well throughout the years! Always believed and knew he was […]

Kyrie Irving is no media darling. As a matter of fact, the Brooklyn Nets star’s rather unsavory relationship with the press has been well documented. In a recent guesting on HBO’s The Shop: Uninterrupted, Kyrie got brutally honest about how he deals with the media. This is an inescapable reality for superstars such as himself, […]

Wings, wings, and more wings. That should have been on the mind of any Nets fan that watched Brooklyn’s first-round sweep against the Boston Celtics last postseason. One roster flaw trumped all others for Brooklyn during the sweep: The Nets were too small and unathletic. Three Nets starters from the series stood 6’4” or under. […]

After a tumultuous offseason spent asking the front office for a trade, Brooklyn Nets star forward Kevin Durant just couldn’t catch a break.

Montrezl Harrell remains unsigned 2022 NBA offseason.
