About

The Brooklyn Game aspires to be the Brooklyn site for the Brooklyn team. Founded in October, 2012, The Brooklyn Game provides comprehensive Brooklyn Nets news, analysis, interviews, and community, as well coverage of the cultural impact of the Nets on Brooklyn (and vice versa). The site incorporates the archives and key staff of the NetsAreScorching.com, a popular site that covered the New Jersey Nets.

Managing Editor: Devin Kharpertian (Clinton Hill/Bed Stuy) was born in New Jersey and has been a Nets fan ever since he inexplicably chose a 7-game ticket package without Michael Jordan's Bulls in 1996. Devin joined Nets Are Scorching (an ESPN TrueHoop Blog) in May 2010 and ran the site until it evolved into The Brooklyn Game. He will debate the merits of regional pizza styles, chicken wings, and the positional revolution with anyone. E-mail Devin at devin@thebrooklyngame.com.

His seats at the Barclays Center are in Section 206, so stop by if you ever want to hear a grown man get worked up over Lucious Harris’ underpraised worth.
