DeAndre Jordan, now of the Brooklyn Nets, briefly reflected on the 2018-2019 NBA season — a year that tested his “mental patience.”

The 2018-2019 season was the first time in Jordan's career that he didn't don an LA Clippers jersey. To recall, he inked a one year deal with the Dallas Mavericks in the summer of 2018, playing and starting in 50 games for the Rick Carlisle-led squad. Come the midseason, however, he was traded to the New York Knicks.

The succession of team changes took a toll on Jordan, who admitted that last season “was kind of a blur” for him.

“It was tough for me. Last year was kind of a blur. It was a learning experience. It was good for my mental patience. But I’m excited about this year,” Jordan said on Barstool Sports’ Pardon My Take podcast (h/t Brian Lewis of the New York Post).

Jordan also praised Knicks fans for their passion and knowledge of the game. For the one-time All-Star, he definitely welcomed the criticism. But now, he's excited to start his basketball journey with the Nets and move on from everything that happened in the past season.

“I had a cool time when I was there. Knicks fans are great. New York fans in general are awesome. They’re passionate as hell, they know the sports, they know the game. And they’ll call you out if you’re not playing the right way, which is great,” Jordan added. “But I’m excited about the things that the Nets are doing, and the organization and the guys that we’ve got. So I’m excited.”

Jordan will team up with Kyrie Irving and Kevin Durant in what is already a feisty Nets squad. Even on paper, people view them as a possible contender for the title in the years to come.
