Around the Nets: Tuesday Edition

  • DeShawn Stevenson asks Deron Williams on a daily basis if D-Will is staying, and D-Will says the same thing every day. DeShawn later notes that he envisions a short shelf life on his career.

  • The Nets are planning a ceremony for Monday night’s Nets-Sixers game, the last professional basketball game ever in New Jersey. Fun game: look at the players Billy King mentions as integral to the franchise’s history. Then look at who’s attending.

  • Could Tupac play the Barclays Center?
  • 1010 WINS does a photo tour of the Barclays Center.
  • Gerald Wallace’s workout to determine his status for the rest of the season? That’s today.
  • Also today: the Nets’ last team photo shoot in New Jersey.
  • A writer for the Toronto Sun is not particularly optimistic about the Nets going forward, and the issues start at the top.

  • A bit of old news, but the Atlantic Yards project needs additional study to determine its environmental impact.

  • From Tim Bontemps, some interesting quotes from Anthony Morrow. The league-wide narrative will assuredly focus on LeBron, but the Nets feel (perhaps rightfully so) that game’s outcome rested on their failures, not Miami’s successes.

  • From the other side: on LeBron James turning back the clock last night.
