Holiday Gift Guide for the Biggest Nets Fans You Know
Hey, you — yes, you — it’s me. It’s December 11th, which means there officially just two weeks before Christmas. Mhm, it snuck up on all of us this year, undoubtedly, but that’s not why we’re here — no, we’re here to save your holiday season.
Whether you’ve got Hanukkah around the corner or are struggling to find the perfect gift for your constantly-sad father as he watches the Nets give up another 40-point quarter, we’ve got you covered.
Here are the best potential Nets-related gifts from around the web — listen to us and get yourself off the hook.
The Predictable:
Nets Ugly Christmas Sweater Seated Plush Bear — Brooklyn Nets
$12.60
Look, we’ve got to start with the simple ideas before moving into the insane ones. We can’t just drop your consciousness into straight insanity, you’ll thank us later.
Nets vs. 76ers Tickets, January 8th, 2017 — Stubhub
From $14.00
It may not be a fantastic game, but with the number of winnable games shrinking by the week, do you father a favor and let him have a chance to be happy.
Meek Mill — DC4 — Amazon
$9.49
Take that, Drake.
The Strange:
March 1998 NBA Inside Stuff featuring Keith Van Horn — eBay
$1.50
Enough said. I mean, for that price, what reason do you have not to buy this classic piece of New Jersey Nets history?
Jason Kidd Christmas Tree Ornament — eBay
$8.00
Without a doubt, Jason Kidd is one of the best players in franchise history, so why not add him to your family tradition of decorating the tree? However, don’t blame us when he demands to be hung higher up on the tree and then leaves for your neighbor’s house — we warned you.
New Jersey Nets Collectible Bobbleheads
$85.00
Jason Kidd, Kenyon Martin, Dikembe Mutombo, and Sly (RIP) headline this throwback set of bobbleheads. No clue if they ever bothered making a BrooklyKnight version.
For Die-hards Only:
Shane Larkin Game Used USA Flag NBA Socks — eBay
$30.00
Have you ever caught yourself thinking: “Man, if only Shane Larkin got another shot?” Well, search no longer because you’ve found the perfect gift. Larkin, who is destined for a Stephon Marbury-esque takeover of Chinese basketball, makes these socks more of an investment than anything else.
Anthony Morrow + Shawne Williams Autographed Promo — eBay
$25.00
Yeah, sure, fine, whatever.
Marquis Teague Game-Used Pants — eBay
$150.00
If you buy these and go out for a run, you’ll automatically have sweat more in them than Teague did.
Did we miss anything big? Let us know! I’m very close to completing my 2009-2010 New Jersey Nets Hall of Shame — I just need some autographed sneakers from Tony Battie to complete the set.
(Not true, but I wish…^)
Happy Holidays from everybody at The Brooklyn Game and good luck with your gift-giving searches!
