Kyrie Irving has yet to play a home game for the Brooklyn Nets this season. He chose not to get vaccinated against COVID-19, and there is a vaccine mandate across New York City for indoor spaces. This mandate includes the Nets’ home court in the Barclays Center. However, NYC Mayor Eric Adams said Wednesday that […]

The Brooklyn Nets are one of the NBA’s most intriguing teams. They have yet to tap into their full potential because so many of their key players have been absent with injuries. It was a big reason why the team couldn’t get much going with James Harden, why he was traded to the Philadelphia 76ers […]

The Brooklyn Nets received a major boost to their backcourt on Monday as they won the Goran Dragic sweepstakes. While the Slovenian was garnering interest from a number of different teams including the Milwaukee Bucks and Los Angeles Clippers, there are a couple of reasons, in particular, he ultimately decided to sign with the Nets. […]

The Brooklyn Nets might be in just eighth place in the Eastern Conference but they are still looking to compete for a title. Subtracting a disgruntled James Harden and adding Ben Simmons, Seth Curry and Andre Drummond balances out their roster and gives them a new look that could propel them back up the standings. […]

Remember that really archaic period in the NBA when the Brooklyn Nets had Kevin Durant, James Harden, and Kyrie Irving and they were expected to win 500 championships? Yeah, that one. Well, things didn’t exactly pan out. Now, the Nets are in the midst of another new era with the addition of Ben Simmons, Andre […]

Throughout his NBA career, one narrative has always been held over Ben Simmons’ head. He is a phenomenal talent in multiple facets of the game, but his reluctance to shoot on the perimeter will be his downfall. The former No. 1 pick by the Philadelphia 76ers was always encouraged to expand that area of his […]

After news of the Ben Simmons-James Harden trade went down, Brooklyn Nets fans had one question: what are they going to do about Simmons? The former All-Star is a talented ball handler and arguably the best defender in the NBA. However, Simmons’ inability and reluctance to shoot has haunted him since his Philadelphia days. Speaking […]

The Brooklyn Nets have been in the spotlight the past couple of weeks due to trade rumors and finalizations. They recently completed the blockbuster transaction of James Harden and Paul Millsap for Philadelphia 76ers’ Ben Simmons, Seth Curry, Andre Drummond, and two first-round picks. Now, the Nets are working on building their updated team with […]

It’s not every day your favorite team engages in an absolute blockbuster trade. Fans spend a lot of time concocting them on trade machines but so rarely do they actually go down. Thursday’s NBA Trade deadline was not one of those days. This time, we really got one. The Brooklyn Nets traded James Harden and […]

Brooklyn Nets head coach Steve Nash recently sent a firm message that the team wouldn’t trade James Harden ahead of Thursday’s deadline. Since then, there have been a number of rumors and reports about the status of negotiations with the Philadelphia 76ers, plus a report coming Thursday morning stating Harden wants a trade now but […]

The Brooklyn Nets lost their ninth straight game against the Boston Celtics on Tuesday, which is why it didn’t come as a surprise Steve Nash was asked about his job status and whether or not he has received support from the front office. Nash didn’t sound worried about such stuff despite the Nets’ freefall, though. […]

The Brooklyn Nets are looking to avoid an eight-game losing streak, and they’ll have to do that against a tough Denver Nuggets team without Kevin Durant and James Harden, who’s dealing with a hamstring injury. With reports last week saying GM Sean Marks and the Nets are now ready to talk with Daryl Morey and […]

James Harden is out on Sunday with left hamstring tightness. Because of the flurry of speculation that he might be headed to the Philadelphia 76ers in a blockbuster trade for Ben Simmons, that has everyone wondering if Harden is really injured or if this absence is simply intended to preserve his health for a pending […]

Brooklyn Nets head coach Steve Nash is a glass-half-full type of guy. This is exactly why the 47-year-old shot-caller opted to focus on the silver lining of his team’s embarrassing 125-102 loss to the Utah Jazz on Friday night. Instead of lambasting his team for the poor effort they put forth against a determined Jazz […]

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 […]

There has been a lot of trade speculation growing between the Brooklyn Nets’ James Harden and Philadelphia 76ers’ Ben Simmons.

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 are dealing with a myriad of injuries right now and it has been a major problem for head coach Steve Nash. They recently lost LaMarcus Aldridge to a sprained left ankle and new developments do not bode well for the seven-time All-Star. Nash himself provided an update on Aldridge’s condition, who on […]

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. Kevin Durant continues to rehab his sprained MCL in his knee, and James Harden was a […]

Entering Saturday’s marquee matchup against the Brooklyn Nets, the Golden State Warriors are 36-13 and are sitting on the second spot of a ruthless Western Conference. The Dubs have done this amid Stephen Curry’s shooting slump, Klay Thompson still working his way back to form, and Draymond Green on the sidelines due to injury. For […]

The Phoenix Suns have no shortage of great players like Charles Barkely and Steve Nash who have suited up for the franchise in its long history. However, none of those players were able to step foot on the territory that Devin Booker just reached. On Wednesday against the Utah Jazz, Booker exploded for 43 points […]

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 […]

The overarching sense coming from James Harden and the Brooklyn Nets is that there are no plans to trade the former MVP. But the rumblings of late do hint at some sense of frustration. In a recent report from Bleacher Report’s Jake Fischer, there are apparently a number of issues James Harden has with his […]

The Brooklyn Nets are hoping to turn things around after their recent struggles. In order to do so, they’ll need to defend their home floor against a talented Denver Nuggets squad. Well, their task just got a bit more difficult after it was announced, just one hour before tip-off, that James Harden would be sidelined […]

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 […]

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 […]

The Brooklyn Nets went into the nation’s capital without their best player Kevin Durant being available to play.

In a surprise twist from the typical narrative, the Nets are actually […]

Hoops fans were witnesses to a scary sight on Saturday when Brooklyn Nets superstar Kevin Durant limped off the floor during their game against the New Orleans Pelicans.

The Brooklyn Nets are set to face the Oklahoma City Thunder at Barclays Center on Thursday night. The Nets had their big three Kevin Durant, James Harden, and Kyrie Irving available for the stunning 138-112 slaying over the Bulls. We don’t expect Kyrie Irving to appear in the next game since it’s in Brooklyn where he […]

The Brooklyn Nets have the second game of a back-to-back on the road to take on the Portland Trailblazers who are still missing Damian Lillard due to an abdominal injury. The Nets are now 25-13, 1.5 games behind the top seeded Chicago Bulls in the Eastern Conference. That’s the very team they’re set to play […]

Dirk Nowitzki’s number 41 was lifted into the Dallas Mavericks’ rafters yesterday night after the Mavs took down the powerhouse Golden State Warriors.

The Brooklyn Nets are officially on a losing streak. It’s been a whirlwind. The Nets, who previously had 10 players in health and safety protocols, suffered their third straight defeat on Monday against the Memphis Grizzlies. It was an absurd amount of unavailable players and part of the reason the team brass made the controversial […]

Coming off of their worst loss of the season, the Brooklyn Nets look to regroup against the Memphis Grizzlies. In many ways, it is a terrific litmus test for Steve Nash’s group, as the Grizzlies specialize in some areas where they have struggled. Ja Morant and Memphis force turnovers, they crash the offensive glass, and […]
