Brook Lopez

Turns out the Brooklyn Nets don’t always get who they want. After striking a deal that landed them Paul Pierce, Kevin Garnett and Jason Terry to pair alongside Brook Lopez, Joe Johnson and Deron Williams, the Nets were the presumed favorites to land sharp-shooter Kyle Korver. Once anonymous general manager even went as far as [...]

This just won’t go away. No matter what the numbers or sheer logic say, the Dwight Howard to Brooklyn Nets rumors just won’t subside. At all. Brooklyn was Howard’s preferred destination of choice when he was with the Orlando Magic, but when the two sides were unable to strike an accord, Dwight ended up with [...]

Mark Cuban believes in Deron Williams and the Brooklyn Nets…said no one ever. Prior to Brooklyn’s 113-96 victory over the Dallas Mavericks on Wednesday night, Big D’s owner was asked about Williams and the state of the Nets.

The Brooklyn Nets seem to have become the Los Angeles Lakers of the Eastern Conference. Like the Lakers, the Nets seem to be linked to every big name that appears on the market. Last season it was Dwight Howard and this year, it’s Josh Smith of the Atlanta Hawks. According to ESPN.com’s Chris Broussard, Brooklyn [...]

It’s not easy being Tyson Chandler of the New York Knicks. Seemingly single-handed, Chandler turned the Knicks into a top-11 defense last season, and he and coach Mike Woodson have picked right back up where he left off. His direction on the defensive side of the ball remains nothing short of inspiring and innovative. He [...]

Looking at the Brooklyn Nets’ record, it’s difficult not to get excited. Brooklyn is currently 10-4 and sitting atop the Atlantic Division—they have their victory over the New York Knicks to thank for that. So why not get excited? This is the team’s first season not only in the Barclays center, but together in general. [...]
