Kyrie Irving Articles - Page 59

The Brooklyn Nets suffered one of their worst losses of the season on Friday night as the Utah Jazz blew them out, 125-102. Kyrie Irving was the lone superstar available for the Nets with both Kevin Durant and James Harden dealing with respective injuries, and true enough, the Jazz made easy work of a shorthanded […]

James Harden himself has already denied reports about how he’s unhappy with his current situation with the Brooklyn Nets. However, as most suspect, there’s much more to this issue than what’s on the surface. Despite Harden’s denial, the narrative just won’t go away. The same can be said about rumors pertaining to a possible move […]

The Brooklyn Nets are playing some of the worst basketball in the league right now. Even with Kevin Durant sidelined with injury, a team with James Harden and a part-time Kyrie Irving shouldn’t be rolling over the way it has of late. It was more of the same for the Nets against the Utah Jazz […]

The Brooklyn Nets are one of the most talked about teams right now. And the biggest focus is whether or not GM Sean Marks may spend his weekend chatting with Sixers President Daryl Morey about a James Harden for Ben Simmons blockbuster trade. It might devastate many Nets fans to see that happen but there […]

The Brooklyn Nets find themselves the center of trade rumors with six days to go before the deadline. While it was Kyrie Irving who occupied headlines for most of the season over his vaccination status, lately it has been James Harden who has been under the microscope. Many analysts think Harden is the next disgruntled […]

The Brooklyn Nets are on a six-game losing streak and that apparently has winds of change blowing. Would GM Sean Marks make a big shakeup to help support Kevin Durant for the team’s playoff run? With just six days to go before the NBA trade deadline, we got a bombshell news update from Shams Charania […]

The Nets have hit a six-game skid and just yesterday we were wondering if they’d dare to consider trading James Harden at this deadline. The most logical landing spot would be the Philadelphia 76ers, as Sixers president Daryl Morey seems to only have eyes for Harden. What he is offering is perhaps a blockbuster package […]

There has been a lot of trade speculation growing between the Brooklyn Nets’ James Harden and Philadelphia 76ers’ Ben Simmons. It’s been wildly reported that the Sixers hope to move Simmons, but Harden being dealt would shake up the Eastern Conference. The Nets have reportedly become increasingly concerned with Harden and his ability to fit […]

These days the Brooklyn Nets are in a bit of a funk. Three games out of first place at 29-22 amid a six-game losing streak, Brooklyn has reached a new low point of the short-lived Big Three era. There are plenty of people taking jabs (pun intended) at Kevin Durant, James Harden, Kyrie Irving and […]

The Brooklyn Nets find themselves at a low point of the Big Three era. Losers of six games in a row, the Nets’ dream of a superstar trio blitzing through the league still exists. It just gets harder and harder to picture when it always seems like something else pops up to thwart Kevin Durant, […]

The Brooklyn Nets have had a tough week. Kevin Durant isn’t healthy enough to suit up yet as he continues to rehab from the sprained MCL he sustained last month. With Durant out, the Nets have hit a brutal six-game losing streak that has James Harden hinting at possible “internal” issues. With Kyrie Irving only […]

There has been plenty of drama surrounding Brooklyn Nets star Kyrie Irving in recent years across multiple teams, ranging from his flat Earth comments to questions about his leadership to his COVID-19 vaccination status and more. In addition to that negative stuff, Irving has also made a concerted effort to take stands on social justice […]

The Kevin Durant-less Brooklyn Nets lost their sixth game in a row on Wednesday night to a very poor Sacramento Kings team, who were missing their best player in De’Aaron Fox. While Steve Nash’s squad undoubtedly realizes they need to be better, Kyrie Irving had a rather bizarre excuse for the disappointing loss. Via Kristian […]

James Harden has been in the news a lot lately. The combination of some off the court distractions, plus a long road trip, playing the second night of a back-to-back set with a strained hand, appear to have all culminated in one rough road loss to a bad team. The Brooklyn Nets lost their sixth […]

The Brooklyn Nets continue their free fall in the standings. They’ve now lost six consecutive games and sit at 29-22. But this one, a 112-101 loss to Tyrese Haliburton and the Sacramento Kings, is up there with their worst L’s of the season. Brooklyn drops now to 6th place in the East, 1.5 games out […]

The Brooklyn Nets are led by a coach who has a historic resume. Steve Nash was a two time NBA MVP in both 2005 and 2006 and he was runner up to a former teammate of his Dirk Nowitzki for what would have been a third consecutive MVP award. It’s fitting then he’s presiding over […]

The Brooklyn Nets have had one heck of a ride. They first signed Kevin Durant back in 2019 knowing that the two-time NBA Finals MVP would miss a full season after under going major surgery on his Achilles. They knew that was worth a bit of patience. But upon trading the farm for James Harden […]

Finding credible trade rumors around the Brooklyn Nets these days is like mining for diamonds. GM Sean Marks comes from the Gregg Popovich Spurs tree, as he keeps things under wraps. There simply aren’t many leaks coming out of Brooklyn. However, we can look at what the Nets need and then try to guess what […]

On Saturday night, the Brooklyn Nets went up against the Golden State Warriors as it was a battle between two of the top teams in the NBA. Golden State was able to win by a slim margin of 110-106. Despite the loss, the Nets must be pleased with their performance, especially given they did not […]

The Brooklyn Nets went to San Francisco to try to take down the league’s second best team, the Golden State Warriors, on Saturday.

The Brooklyn Nets fought hard, but ultimately fell short. Coming into a big game against Stephen Curry, Klay Thompson and the Golden State Warriors, Kyrie Irving was the lone member of the Big 3 available for Steve Nash Saturday.

Coming into the 2021 season, Jonathan Kuminga had his fair share of doubters. The Golden State Warriors rookie had the physical tools and attributes to be successful, but he was considered to be a raw prospect. Fans wondered where he would fit in a contending roster like the Dubs. As it turns out, though, the […]

The Golden State Warriors and the Brooklyn Nets battled it out in an instant classic on Saturday night. It was the Dubs that emerged with a tightly-contested 110-106 victory with Stephen Curry and Klay Thompson coming up clutch for the Warriors down the stretch. The Nets, on the other hand, were led by Kyrie Irving, […]

The Brooklyn Nets are set to take on Stephen Curry and the Golden State Warriors on Saturday. With Kevin Durant out through at least the All-Star Break with a sprained MCL, that would have left James Harden and Kyrie Irving to try to get some revenge against the Warriors. To recall, the Dubs thrashed the […]

There are just so many James Harden trade rumors out there these days.

Between vaccines and part-time statuses, with new trade reports, there are times it feels as […]

The Brooklyn Nets are set to face the Golden State Warriors at Chase Center Saturday. The Nets were without star James Harden last game, after popping up on the injury report with a tight hamstring. It leads us to an inevitable question: Is James Harden playing vs Warriors? Is James Harden playing vs Warriors The […]

Things are not so peachy these days for the Brooklyn Nets. It was recently revealed that James Harden isn’t too pleased with the team and wants to test the waters in free agency in the offseason. With Kevin Durant’s extended absence due to an MCL injury and the still-unvaccinated Kyrie Irving only being a part-time […]

With the Brooklyn Nets mired in controversy for a sizable chunk of this turbulent season, there came some pretty reassuring James Harden news for fans just before the tipoff of their home game versus Nikola Jokic and the Denver Nuggets. By now you have probably been inundated with the many Harden-for-Ben Simmons trade rumors out […]

The Brooklyn Nets are set to host Nikola Jokic and the Denver Nuggets at Barclays Center. They are 29-18 in third place in the East, but just one full game out of first place behind both the Chicago Bulls and Miami Heat. The problem is that Steve Nash’s men have a rare away-court advantage: Kevin […]

Kevin Durant is injured through the All-Star break, Kyrie Irving is only available part of the time and James Harden now finds his name swirling in Ben Simmons trade rumors every single day. There have been days when the “scary hours” dream of a healthy and available, full-time Big Three felt like it was just […]

James Harden and Brooklyn Nets lost again at home on Tuesday. They’re now just 12-12 at Barclays Center after a 106-96 home loss to LeBron James, Anthony Davis, Russell Westbrook and the Los Angeles Lakers. This is a team who had an away-game advantage for most of the season and with Kyrie Irving back in […]

James Harden’s name has popped up in trade rumors quite a bit this week. Almost every single one of them indicates that his former GM Daryl Morey would love to acquire The Beard in a blockbuster sign-and-trade after this season. For what it’s worth, Harden had the opportunity to take a big contract extension through […]

The Brooklyn Nets made it through most of this turbulent season thus far without a ton of credible trade rumors. But, lately, James Harden’s name has popped up every few days with solid reports hinting that Philadelphia 76ers president Daryl Morey would love to acquire The Beard in an offseason trade for disgruntled star Ben […]

The Brooklyn Nets have been looking for ways to stack wins in the absence of their lethal scorer, Kevin Durant. Without KD, still nursing a sprained knee, Steve Nash’s team went to Target Center to take on Anthony Edwards, D’Angelo Russell, Karl-Anthony Towns and the rest of the Minnesota Timberwolves. Since it was a road […]

The Brooklyn Nets headed to AT&T Center to  battle the San Antonio Spurs. With trade season in full swing, most of the Nets should feel reasonably safe. Nic Claxton is the name who has been mentioned the most. But the big three of Kevin Durant, Kyrie Irving and James Harden certainly aren’t going anywhere, at […]

It appears that Brooklyn Nets big man Paul Millsap is soon going to have a new home. It was recently reported by Shams Charania of The Athletic that the former Jazz, Hawks, and Nuggets forward, who has appeared in 24 games for the Nets this season, is seeking a change of scenery. Forward Paul Millsap […]

Kyrie Irving’s NBA career has been rife with controversy at every corner. Even before coming to the Brooklyn Nets, the superstar guard has had some sort of drama with every team he’s been a part of. His penchant for attracting issues at every turn is undeniable, and has turned off more than a few of […]

Brooklyn Nets star Kyrie Irving returned to Cleveland on Monday and dropped 27 points in a loss to the Cavaliers, but it didn’t come without controversy. Irving was seen clapping back at a courtside fan who was heckling him and because of the guard’s NSFW comments, he’s been fined $25,000 by the NBA: The following […]

The Brooklyn Nets went into the nation’s capital without their best player Kevin Durant being available to play. The Nets must get used to life without their MVP candidate, as Durant is out for at least a month recovering from an MCL sprain. In a surprise twist from the typical narrative, the Nets are actually […]
