50 Years on: Could Nets honor the ABA and Dr. J at Lottery Nets played the last ABA game in 1976. The league moved on. The consequences didn’t. There’s a way to rectify things.

The Nets won the 1976 ABA title… then had to sell Dr. J to survive the NBA merger. 50 years later, that story still hits.

Nets set to honor Vince Carter at The Empire State Building leading up to his retirement ceremony This one is special.

The Nets will honor Vince Carter with events in the days leading up to his retirement ceremony.

On the night they hang No. 15 up in the rafters, the Empire State Building will light up red, white, and blue with 15 rotating on the spire.

Not the full point. Found a good coach in step 1

LONG TERM: Nets are exactly where they need to be at the midway point Jordi Fernandez showed us just how good he is. So did Cooper Flagg and a bunch of college prospects.

Nets back in Miami tonight 🌴

They’ve lost 7 of the last 9 since their win against the Suns on Nov. 27.

They’re *barely* the 11 seed:

• 0.5 game behind play-in (DET)

• 3 games behind the 6 seed (MIA)

• 1 game ahead of 12-seed (76ers)

• 4 games ahead of 13-seed (CHA)

Nic Claxton is averaging 1 ejection per 7 games played this season. #Nets

IMO, yes.

Seems like those days are behind us. Cam’s out. Dennis is gone. Who’s a dependable playmaker/scorer for these guys?

The Brooklyn Nets are now 2-5 without Cam Thomas.

AN APPRECIATION: Nets on YES longtime producer, Frank DiGraci, heading to NBC The Emmy-award winning producer will join NBC Sports for NBA coverage after the 2024-25 Nets season.

You might not have been able to count on the on-court product... but you could always count on YES to put on a fun and insightful show during Nets games.

My latest on producer Frank DiGraci, who will head over to NBC after this season ⬇️

Nets basketball is back tonight after a mini break.

They’re the 8-seed in the East: Only 3 games back from the 6-seed Bucks.

On the flip, they’re only 1 game ahead of the 11-seed and 3 games ahead of the 13-seed.

… Memphis, Cleveland, Toronto, and Utah up next.

Early season Coach of the Year favorite

Yuuuuup!

Lost in the shuffle was Ben Simmons’ best game as a Brooklyn Net with 14 points, 9 rebounds, and 8 assists on 7/8 shooting in 27 minutes

That’s his most points in a game since Nov. 25, 2022.

Tyrese Martin’s NBA journey:

2022-23: Drafted 51st. Plays 16 games with the Hawks, 30 games for the College Park Skyhawks.

Waived.

2023–24: Signed with the Timberwolves.

Waived. Plays the season with the Iowa Hawks.

Today: 30 points on 8/10 from 3 in a win vs Phoenix.

The Brooklyn Nets have wins over…

- Bucks
- Grizzlies
- Grizzlies
- Kings
- Warriors
- Suns

They are 6-1 against the West & more wins against teams with winning records than they do against teams below .500. Truly remarkable.

Dennis Schroder is really so invaluable to this Nets team. Calling him a veteran presence seems disrespectful at this point — he’s a damn-near All-Star through 18 games.

This is CRAZY.
