Can Jarrett Jack lead the new-look Nets?
The schedule makers weren’t so kind to the Brooklyn Nets, and now the prognosticators are following suit. Many are predicting a season of doom and gloom, which will result in a gift-wrapped lottery pick delivered to Danny Ainge’s Boston Celtics office.

Brooklyn Nets 2015 Free Agency Primer
The 2015 NBA Free Agency period, AKA the most wonderful time of year for basketball without basketball, kicks off at midnight on Wednesday, July 1.

Nets waive Darius Morris
The Brooklyn Nets requested waivers on backup point guard Darius Morris today. With Deron Williams, Jarrett Jack, and Steve Blake all on the roster, Morris’s non-guaranteed deal became expendable.

The Nets (18-27) played a fluid 48 minutes against the Eastern Conference leading Atlanta Hawks (38-8) on Wednesday, and still could not withstand enough offensive runs in the second half to propel them to victory. A noticeably energized Joe Johnson scored 26 points against his former team, the most he has tallied in over a […]

Nets to begin difficult stretch against Trail Blazers… if they play at all
UPDATE: Weather did not permit. After an embarrassing three-game road trip that saw them lose the last two games by combined total of 74 points, the Nets (18-26) are back home in Brooklyn. If weather permits — a dicey proposition at this point — they’ll play the Northwest Division-leading Portland Trailblazers (31-13). Two brutal losses […]
