The WORST Situation in the Entire NBA...

- čas přidán 13. 05. 2024
- The Brooklyn Nets over the last two years have gone from a juggernaut contender with Kyrie Irving, Kevin Durant, and James Harden, to a lottery team with seemingly no way to contention any time soon. They have rebuffed great trade offers for Mikal Bridges and other key pieces, tried to stand pat, and have convinced themselves that they can find a way to title contention by convincing another star to come to Brooklyn over the New York Knicks. They're a disaster and are digging the hole deeper every day. Let's talk about it.

They literally recovered from the KG trade, then immediately did it again
not the same tbh. They got KD + kyrie + harden in their primes. Vs they got KG and paul on their declines. Either way they didn't get a chip out of it but for very different reasons...
Lmao facts.
@@mambaASIreally only kyrie is in his prime. kd and harden are both good but no longer in their primes
@@_angeflowHarden won an MVP 2 years before they traded for him
Uh, the KG trade?
What decade do you think this is?
As a nets fans it hurts me to see what’s happening in Brooklyn rn
Josh Hart said it best, referring to Mikal Bridges seeing how Hart and Brunson are doing in NY: “It’s like that Spongebob meme when Squidward is looking out the window and he sees Spongebob and Patrick having fun. Mikal is Squidward.”
I just think that Makil is the 3rd option on a championship team ngl
same man smae
Leaving New Jersey was a huge mistake. Honestly, the Nets should be sold and moved at this point, they will never succeed and grow a real fanbase in NYC. Montreal, Pittsburgh, Baltimore, back to Jersey, all better than the least popular team in NY
And people can squat on and take over people's property there too
They're treating Mikal like a 25 yr old Michael Jordan I don't get it lol.
What gets me is that they tried to screw Kyrie over by sending him to the Mavericks. But it's looking like he potentially dodged a bullet and is in a pretty good situation right now.
Having Luka Doncic as a teammate is hardly being screwed over tbh
they sent him to the best situation that kyrie wanted lmao kyrie wanted to get paid and mavs were the only team willing to take a risk and pay him no other teams were interested in that mess after the nets fiasco
@@mambaASI Lies! 6 teams contacted the Nets regarding Kyrie. Clippers, Lakers, Mavericks, Heat, and the Suns.
I know this comment is irrelevant but I really want kyrie to the Pelicans with zion and Ingram they would go crazy
Could you blame them? Kyrie halfstepped every step of the way. The only thing that maybe mildly forgivable is his stance on the shot, and even then that's contentious.
As a nba fan i hate to see whats happening in Brooklyn, but as a rockets fan I'm praying on their downfall even more lol
Gawdamn 😂
The nets did this before if they didn't learn from the last time they ruined their future overpaying for old stars then it's their fault
As a Thunder fan I’m doing the same for your rockets but you fools keep winning games 😂
So true, they are in middle land. 🙏🏼
I swear 😂
Ben Simmons is a perfect example of why garenteed contracts in the nba are silly.
It’s crazy if ben a had a low money contract he’d actually play harder
He sucks..
Imagine Nets ended up getting #1 on the lottery for the next three years just to give it up to Rockets
Please don’t that would kill me
I feel like the repercussions would be the NBA stepping in after the fact to shadow run the organization and put measures in place to make sure teams don't make franchise killing trades (because thats exactly what it would be).
The NBA has shown it would 100% intervene if teams are making choices not to their benefit (Such as the NBA blocking the CP3 to Lakers trade).
Imagine they then have their own first overall pick then it turns out to be an alltime bust
@@ElSombraRegio7the nba owned cp3’s team not the same
@@alexescutia4805
Don't understand why you say it was different because it literally started the same. As early as 2010, the then Hornets owners were being told by the NBA that they were inefficiently running their franchise and that they would need to start reporting to the league on decision maing processes. This is after NOLA almost traded Tyson Chandler to OKC for marbles, and signing Mo Pete to a horrible contract. They were very ineffictive when it came to dealing and were giving away assets in return for nothing. It made even less sense because they had arguabbly the best point guard in the league and were a perrineal playoff team at that point. Thel NBA literally had to assume control of the Hornets because management was being so unbelievably incompetent with dealings and contracts. When it became clear that Ownership wanted out and were looking to sale, essentially leaningninto making incompetent move onto another incompetent move. The NBA decided to expidite the sale, acquire the team and had to step-in to temporarily hold ownership until a new buyer was found. It took another year after that to completely relieve all of management in NOLA. They were so incompetent that they were going to give the Lakers their CP3 for potentially a terrible tandem of picks and Brown. It was going to be such an unfair trade. Thus The NBA literally having to tell Management "NO" and then forcing them to do the better Clippers deal.
Again, IF a franchise continues to show clear signs of incompetency and can find itself working into a position that is dentrimental for its wellness. The NBA will 100% step-in. If a Franchise self-destructs and becomes so terribly runned that fans are not boight into the product. The NBA makes no money.
Again, there are serious consequences
Sean marks is one of the worst GMs in recent history. He got offered jalen green and the nets picks backs for bridges, he got offered 2-3 1sts for cam johnson and dfs last yr, got offered a 1st for royce oneal last yr and he said no. The guys an idiot
I'm pretty sure most of that was smoke from the nets
@@CJScottt It wasnt. The rockets reporters confirmed that it was a role player the 24 pick, 25 swap and 26 pick back or jalen green plus 24 and 25 for mikal bridges. The nets also were offered 21sts for dfs last yr by the pacers, 4 1sts for bridges by the grizzlies with the 23,25,27 being unprotected and 29 top 5 protected, and cam johnson some west team offered a 1st. The nets are under ht impression that they think a star is going to shake loose. Their GM is by far the worst GM in recent history. He started off well but he's pretty incompetent
Sean Marks deserves to be FIRED!
Lakers should be the ones to bail out the nets by getting bridges for draft capital
What's funny is he's probably not even the worst GM the Nets have ever had lol. What Billy King did to that team with the Celtics trade was way worse.
Joe Tsai has ruined that the franchise. They had 3 hall of famers and Marks and Tsai folded on their demands. Tsai isn't interested in a winning culture he just wants business types in the stands. He just raised ticket prices again for a losing team. They have no direction and nobody seems to actually want to play there
That harden trade killed the franchise, they didn't need him...
Harden is a franchise killer for sure. Clippers will implode after they get bounced early in the playoffs this year.
Don't let Kyrie Irving make your decisions. They are literally a lost franchise.
@@marksimmelkjaer7841lmaoo kyrieee???? Pleaseeee
Remember that time harden was in the MVP convo on the nets before being injured, all because kd and Kyrie couldn't stay on the court. I'm pretty sure kd and Kyrie aren't saints
When harden was there they made it to the ecsf but in 2022 they got bounced first round. Think that says enough.
At the deadline there was articles saying the rockets offered a combination of Jalen green and the nets draft capital back for Mikal bridges and the nets did not even try to make a deal. Malpractice if true
I don't think they offered Jalen, but they offered all the Nets picks so they could have gone into a rebuild but refused cause they think they will get a superstar to add to Mikel and become a contender again
Why tf would the rockets even want these win-now type pieces. Mikal is young yes, but he's ready to be that third player on a championship team right now. The rockets are no where near a championship level team.
The Rockets owner decided that he doesn't care about a title. He wants to get to the playoffs. He was sick of losing for 5 years and getting nothing from it so now they are at "Phase 2" where they believe they have to get better every year, without drafting a bunch of high level talent. Trading for Mikel gets them what they want@@MrE_
@@blablablaa14 more like they still think mikal is a future superstar but they are delusional af
The nets should have taken 😫
If you're in the East, not making the play in, AND not in a rebuild you're in serious trouble.
wow, just a month or 2 ago, people were saying chicago had the worse future in the NBA. Don't worry nets fans, i feel your pain im a chicago bulls fan and the GMs just refuse to rebuild around the young players.
im not gonna lie, a trio of Ja, Mikal, & JJJ would be so much better than most people realize
And Bane too 🔥
As a nets fan, I am so checked out that I haven't watched a game since Janurary
You're not a fan
You guys exist??
@@duranmendez6360 you ant a fan
@@dewel2630 yes
Didn't know nets fans existed either. Why root for the nets in New York when you have the big market Knicks doing well.
Never got how the media campaigned to get rid of their Irving, durand & harden
At this point a photo of Simmons wearing jersey and holding ball looks like some AI generated fake
Makil and Cam are always welcome back to PHX
Yall have nothing to offer! Give us booker or KD back
@@DarkKnight-px7rg That would be perfect. Bye-bye KD
Joe Tsai deserves this
The nets are very proficient at fumbling bags
Rich people don't care.
This is barely only 10% of all their money 😂
As a nets fan, mannn it gets more and more embarrassing by the day I haven’t watched a game in 2 months and won’t for the rest of the season. Potential upside is that now everyone in the league is seeing that this is no doubt the worst run franchise in the entire league. It’s so bad here man. I just need a rebuild but I may never watch until something drastic changes.
Pistons situation is worse. Their front office is completely incompetent. Their picks are turning out to be not as good as people thought they would. Their coach is abhorrent. Their GM is abysmal. And they don’t have many picks in the near future. They’re probably gonna have to start a new rebuild in a couple years.
Cade and durand are elite young talents . Ivey and sasser will be decent pieces too
@@kevvideos634 Out of Cade, Ivey, Ausar, and Duren, none of them can shoot except for Cade, and all of them are terrible defenders except for Ausar. Trust me, if they were as good as people thought they would be, even with the coach being trash, even with the trash supporting cast, they would’ve won more than 12 games, and wouldn’t have lost 28 in a row. Either one or two of them are probably gonna be gone either in the off season or by next year’s trade deadline.
@@kevvideos634 And they’ve had this bad of a season, in year 4 of a rebuild, with the best thing they’re gonna get being a top pick in a draft class that’s projected to be the worst since 2013. They’re in the worst situation in the nba.
at least they have their picks, we don't.
@@dickson6519That’s true, but at least they can get good pick return in Mikal and Claxton. And hell, maybe even a little for Cam Johnson, even though I know his contract is lofty. I don’t know what pistons could get for Jaden Ivey at this point. And Duren could probably get them a first, but that’s pretty much it. Also Brooklyn is more of a free agent destination than Detroit. You would never see a KD and Kyrie type of team up in Detroit lol. People notice the losing, but they don’t notice how cooked the outlook of their team actually is, and how they have one of the worst owners in American sports.
As a Nets fan, I think it will always kill me that they didn’t do that trade with the rockets.
My thinking is they believe Mikal will fill his potential on the court and he’s an amazing player to have in terms of attitude, Hardwork, etc. that can really help in terms of leadership, but they should’ve traded him
As a rockets fan with Jalen now popping off, I’m so glad Brooklyn was stupid again. Looking forward to using their pick this year
jalen is still ass. Sengun is the future of that franchise. Hopefully he recovers 100% from that brutal injury
😐@@mambaASI
While I wasn't thrilled that Harden ran himself out of town, I felt that trade was the best they could hope for because I also figured a tandem of three of the league's whiniest divas was not going to be sustainable
think what you want of Jalen but he has a better year than Mikal and has a higher ceiling than Mikal.I'm glad the Nets had a brain fart at the trade deadline @@mambaASI
I have no idea what you guys are talking about, they seem absolutely amazing right now.
- A Rockets fan
I know Nets fans are sick based on the reporting they could have gotten their picks back and Jalen Green for Mikal Bridges.
I thank the Nets for not taking that deal 😂
It’s the NJ Nets curse they should have never left East Rutherford
As a Heat fan, its crazy to think how the nets fell off so badly, now they need to work more on younger players and try to get a good draft pick in order to go back to relevancy ☝️
The front office banked on Ben Simmons which was a costly mistake. I hope that we can offload in the offseason and still get similar value for these players.
Dude.... The nets have made all of Brooklyn feel shame for the past decade 🤦🏽♂️
Rockets offered them their picks back and Jalen green for bridges and they somehow said no
That nuggets vs mavs game recently had me thinking everytime i saw derrick lively on court very excited. Every play he was involved had me saying "damn he was a good draft pick." Definitely the dark horse for sure
I've been saying OKC isn't using their trove of picks to trade for a star player. Instead I think they are going to consolidate them into later and better picks. Sounds like BKN might be a popular trade partner for them.
There right back where they started in such a fast amount of time
Being a Brooklyn fan is hard rn 😢
The big 3 really did you guys dirty. They demanded trades midseason & before that rarely showed up to play at all.
@@vulcanraven9701 some much bad decisions by management, bending over backwards for the players and the misfortune of injury.
@@el1tefire252 Joe Tsai is the common denominator......Charlotte kept Miles Bridges after brutally beating his ex-wife. Thunder kept Josh Giddey after being seen topless with a teenager. Joe Tsai traded Kyrie over a Tweet......SMFH!
KD was the only one that showed up consistently yet the media treats him as the worst culrpit. Kyrie being healthy but taking off so much time to rebel against science was what really did them in. It's one thing if you're hurt, things happen, but that? There were plenty other guys who were iffy about the vaccination stuff but they still had to show up to work. @@vulcanraven9701
I’m also a Nets fan….listening to ThreeCone, who in his tirade about the mediocrity of today’s Nets, for all his frustration about this year’s Nets after having Durant, Irving and Harden, never said one word about the mediocrity of Brooklyn’s front office. If the Nets had courted Ime Udoka as a coach instead of succumbing to pressures not to offer Udoka a job, I think they would be in a better position. The key to a great team is great coaching. So don’t downplay the players. Downplay the front office too. If you don’t motivate the players with great coaches you don’t get good play. Criticize Sean Marks. He hasn’t done much to make this team better. All he’s done is alienate players like Irving who should have wanted to play in his own backyard (NJ) instead of sitting out last year’s playoffs in Dallas. Great players leave when the front office stinks. So Cone don’t white wash this situation. Call it what it is. Bad management.
Nets gotta just hope they get their Jalen Brunson in the sense of it looks like an overpay for a guy but he exceeds all expectations and turns into a star. They tanked their guys trade value atp but unless you offload cam Thomas, bridges and Clayton for a haul in a multi team trade there’s no real starting point for them
This is over blown and unfair. Point guards matter in this league and the Nets have 0 players that can play make at a high enough clip to open up what the Nets are truly capable of.
They should’ve paid kyrie man
Yeah. Then Durant would have been willing to stay.
It's time for Joe Tsai to admit wrongdoing and miscalculations
Honestly, they should have kept DLO. He was the best thing to happen to NY
It’s the 2010’s all over again it’s like we didn’t learn our lesson🤦🏽♂️
As a knicks fan I’m eating my frosty and minding my business 😄
As a Rockets fan, everyone said we lost that Harden trade when it first happened. People laughed at us that we essentially traded Harden for Kelly Olynyk. Well...what they didn't understand was that Kyrie, KD and Harden were drama queens and their chemistry was set to implode. And chef's kiss when they traded for an even more toxic player in Ben Simmons.
Even me, as a casual fan, knew those assholes, especially Kyrie and Simmons, were not players you build your team around. They're like the hot chick with narcissism and maturity issues. The relationship was never going to work.
So, f-all-a-y'all.
As a nets fan, y’all were always going to win that trade. I HATED that trade so much. I said so many times we didn’t need harden. After going through the trade for fossil kg and pierce I felt immediately we would go through the same story once again and here we are.
We had dinwiddie, levert, Harris, clax, Allen, all young. With our picks back for the future and we traded our picks once again. This team is an embarrassment to the league.
Day by day the league continues to notice more and more how horribly this franchise is run and I’m glad. People want to say “ oh players want to play in ny so they would come to Brooklyn if they needed to just to play in ny”. DUDE DO YOU UNDERSTAND WE FUMBLED 3 NO DOUBT 😅HALL OF FAME PLAYERS WHO CAN AVERAGE 27+ in their prime. WHAT TEAM IN THE HISTORY OF THE NBA HAS EVER DONE IT THIS BAD? WHAT STAR IS GOING TO WANT TO PLAY FOR US???
Props to y’all rockets cause I was honestly waiting for y’all to surge. And now y’all got udoka as the head coach. Your future is looking good. I didn’t like the dillon and vanfleet signing y’all did. Y’all got sengun and smith jr for yall future frontcourt and that is lovely. If Jalen green can continue to surge and become a star, that’s great. Idk if cam whitmore is going to be that small forward hall need to have y’all full future young lineup but I can see it being (Amen Thompson, Jalen green, cam whitmore, Jabari smith and Alperen Sengun). Great balance of offense and defense.
@@jethawk1172 The saddest thing is KD, Kyrie, Spencer Dinwiddie, Harden, and Cam Thomas don't have one good thing to say about us as a organization. SMH!
I would like to point out that KD and the Nets had always been an inevitable paring. KD took so much of the riding the Warriors coattails criticism to heart that he chose the Nets over the Knicks. He wanted to be the man.
And the Nets, being the irrelevant little brother in the NY media, welcomed KD and Kyrie with open arms. They needed KD so much that they let KD and Kyrie do whatever they wanted, which made the Harden deal inevitable.@@jethawk1172
But anyway, we used our Nets pick to get Sengun, Tari and Whitmore. Thanks!
Hindsight is always 20/20, every gm in the league makes that trade if presented to them
@@EduardoOliveira-zx9jusome of that probably speaks about the Nets as an organization but are we going to act like KD, Kyrie and Harden didn't play a part in that dysfunction?
As a Nets fan, I had high hopes this off-season but now…
Thanks for talking about another team. I’m so tired of hearing about the Lakers it’s crazy
That trade was real but the Nets
Didn’t even want to negotiate . Literally 3 weeks later Jalen green is avg 35 pts lol
I'm conflicted
On one hand, as a basketball fan I hate to see a young team ruined thanks to managerial incompetence. (Marks really should be fired)
However, on the other hand, as a Knicks fan I can't help but laugh at said incompetence. We've endured plenty of that over the years.
I laugh at everything bad that happens to the nets.. but i do feel sorry for mikal. He deserves better. Mainly being with his friends across the river.
The thunder can give the nets an out if they give it all up for bridges and cam thomas or johnson....heck even claxton possibly....maybe smith even if the thunder just are willing to sign klay this offaeason and give up giddy jaylen wallace and jalen for a win now move....i would think about it
Man imagine they kept dlo and Allen
That miss on jalen green was a ridiculous fumble
Not really tho not saying cam Thomas better but they almost the same type of player. Not identical but similar
Not surprised the big 3 asked to be traded and Simmons isn't on the court. None of this is surprising. Lets be honest, any middle of the road team in the NBA would blow up their list to have gotten that 3. The only mistake was taking on the Simmons contract and Simmons.
Man wtf is going on with Brooklyn front office? Talking about building around Mikal?? 😭
Brooklyn Bridges!
As bad as the Nets situation is, it’s nothing compared to Chicago wasting 3 years not making a single trade banking on Lonzo to be their savior in his return.
Compared to Brooklyn, they have more valuable assets that teams want, were offered 10x more than Brooklyn and rejected all of it because their front office truly wants them to be a contender with their current roster.
Okc was in a very similar situation…. And look at where they are now
They took sga, drafted chet, williams, and have 16 picks.
For paul george, westbrook, chris paul…. Melo…. Go figure
@@alfiey5783You contradicted yourself. OKC said yes to a trade to receive a young SGA and several picks. The Nets said no to a young Jalen Green and several picks. Sam Presti is one of the best GM’s in the NBA. Sean Marks is one of the worst. You’re NOT in similar situations at all. You don’t have the picks to get future Chet’s, JWill’s etc…. The Rockets now have that bright future thanks to the trade and the Nets decline. Expect the Rockets to make an OKC jump next season. They’re exactly one year behind OKC’s rebuild timeline.
@@patriotpatriot1111 what are you talking about? Reread the comment i made carefully before commenting.
I said okc “was” in a similar situation.
Meaning whatever you just said is what i agree to. Okc “was” in a similar situation but managed to turn it around whereas the nets ruined theirs
@@alfiey5783 I read it. Every team has gone through rebuilds. Name me one other team that has given away all their picks and had the opportunity to get them back and a young building block and declined while doing so - I’ll wait. lol. That’s what makes your scenario fundamentally different. Utah for example received Markkanan and several first round picks for Donovan Mitchell. Their future is bright. The Nets is the opposite of that.
@@patriotpatriot1111 sorry i dont disagree? What the nets are historically stupid? With their builds? Ummm yeah?
But dont make it sound like its super special with your scenario of lauri and don mitchell, it happened with gobert, sorry you had to wait. Its not unique….? Teams do trade a bevy of picks to try to win and fail?
You mean utah didnt get 4 first round picks 1 pick swap and walker kessler, vanderbilt, pat bev, bolmaro, malik?
In addition you mean wizards future it bright with their trades? (Nets are not that special in that regard).
Btw if you are going to be precise be precise. Its not “several 1st picks”. Its 3 first rd and 2 second pick (swaps) for don mitchell and lauri. Along with sexton, ochai. Pretty ridiculous to say that its several 1st round picks to skew whatever it is you are saying 😂
They should’ve told KD and Kyrie to SMD with those trade demands….KD sitting out the whole year Kyrie not getting the shot and playing half the time. Demanding Harden and the Nets giving up that much…SMD, play or retire
We have Cam Thomas and next season is Ben’s last in BK with plenty of picks, we good
Nets really got to blow it up fast
Only way for them to turn this around is to score a jackpot in the later draft picks.
Wait they could have gotten Jaylen green and their picks back
I’m so done with this organization
Ben only got 1 year left and BK is about to have the ability to sign a max guy in 2025. And multiple picks to trade.
They are nowhere near the worst situation in the nba
Get those role players on contending teams
Bridges has fallen off so hard. I started to wonder if he’s playing with an injury, but doesn’t want to sit out because of his streak.
I know I sound like a Nets fan that’s coping real hard, but he’s just fallen off so much .
He didnt actually fall off though did he. Hes technically averaging a career high for a full season. He just went crazy for the last 25 games last season for a bad team after the trade and everyone projected him to become that. But his stats are the same really.
He's the same player he's been the last few years, but he's been promoted above his level of competence. When you promote a sixth man or 3rd option to primary scorer, some of them fall apart once they get the defensive attention.
@@jasonbenedetti5499Basically, the scouting reports were not out on Mikals game as a #1 option but now they are and he’s struggling.
@@jasonbenedetti5499 yeah. I think his first half of this season was better than his second half. When I say fall off I mean he’s been playing much below even his potential lately imho.
@@jadynhasstupid2275 this makes sense. I don’t get to watch the games as much as I would like but if he’s the number 1 teams are going to plan for him. Last year, he went crazy and it was a big surprise. Still, he’s been playing even much worse lately. Not sure what’s up with him.
like you said, this is just franchise malpractice
immediately upon firing billy king for franchise implosion, they hired a billy king impressionist
Mikal fan, but definitely thought he was a second option at best. Honestly would love to have him as a third option on the bucks over Middleton. One could dream
I don't get what the nets is doing they have these guys who could be contributors to contenders but decided to keep them all
Sean "Marks" the spot on this entire team and roster
😢
And I’m not sure if the nets have a first round pick this year
They don’t. I’m a Raptors fan. I’ve been watching tankathon like a hawk.
They don’t we own their pick this year via the Harden trade 😅
as a lakers fans id want to pick up clax and lonnie walker on FA
and id be happy to say that theres 1-2 teams with a worse future than us
The thing is it’s not the Celtics situation again, they actually do have pick capital but it’s just the leadership that is a problem.
I would have traded Simmons and 2 first round picks for Brogdon and Thybulle, and by over with it.
How de we as a franchise, make the same mistake three times in a row. Williams, Garnet, Harden trades were bad on face value and shown to be wright over time.
I don’t think they have their own pick so it’s pointless for them to tank
This is the price for giving up too much to win now and it happened twice. This franchise literally sold everything that they once were as the New Jersey Nets to become........this.....
I remember when it felt like every big name free agent ended up in Brooklyn. Man the basketball gods did not like that 😂
They snapped the wizards record which was still a close good game lol.
Sean Marks turned them around really well then squandered three superstar talents and received a quality role player (Bridges) and a broken (mentally:physically) star in Simmons.
Any other franchise probably gives him the axe since they don’t have any draft picks and can not tank but will miss the 20/30 team post season. Tsai has full faith in the guy that hired Nash, Vaughn (twice) and fired Atkinson.
Foolishness Nets will not win a ring in my lifetime
They just need to gut the roster and start over and hope they get a homerun in the next few drafts?
Rockets will still trade for Mikal…
But idk if the nets would still get that much 🤷🏽♂️
Who knows
I think there will be some trades before draftnight
I was one of the only fans in New York that openly said they did not want KD and Kyrie when it was rumored that they were coming to the Knicks purely because of their acumen as men and not basketball players they have a little to no backbones.
The Bridges trade ended the Suns run. It was a bad move to make
Tsai is to blame
As a Knicks fan, I absolutely love the downfall of the Brooklyn Nets to the point. I need them to lose enough to go back to New Jersey. There is one New York team, nets, ain’t it
weep
We've been down before it's only time before we rise up again until the idiots in the front office ruin it again. At this point we should just revert back to being the 2019 Nets and do bench celebrations and just don't care anymore and play while hyping up our players.
The James Harden trade is looking more and more like the Kevin Garnett/Paul Pierce trade that they made. Not great
I feel like there are major Cam Thomas locker room issues. It’s as if there is a battle between a fun-loving Bridges and an angry Cam Thomas. Watch Thomas on bench never. He never cheers for his teammates. I’m guessing a toxic locker room has affected Mikal’s happiness.
There’s no way that Houston rumor is real
I would rather be the nets than the wizards who haven't made the conference finals sonce 79..not just the longest streak in the nba but the nfl nba and mlb combined...maybe there is a hockey team with a longer streak but probably not
Ill never understand why its always doom and gloom when any talks about the Nets, they literally have 10 1st round picks in the next 6 drafts.
The biggest treasure trove of picks besides Utah, OKC, and the Knicks and are getting more draft compensation from Phoenix than they traded to Houston, for Kyrie and Kevin Durant who signed as FREE AGENTS in 2019. Its been a net positive this past decade and everyone only ever focuses on the negative...smh
They’re obviously trying to be mid while having lots of draft picks doesn’t even make sense if they’re not actively tanking and building around mikal fucking bridges???? Like seriously 🤣🤣
Why not commit to being bad get your own picks back and build a super core of young players like OKC, the Celtics, and the Warriors something that fits the true timeline? Every year prospects are getting better and you may end up with another Victor Webenyama type talent that can truly be the star u build around. The problem with the Nets front office is they are always trying to take shortcuts to greatness and buying into the wrong type of players and culture, they have a long history of that. Not only that their current front office has a bad reputation around the league, despite being an attractive city, that is not enough to lure star talent these days.
Only 5 first round picks from other teams and those teams will still be somewhat competitive in those years. PHI got Maxey and can get a many good return from Embiid if he wants out, PHX got Booker, Beals and KD which can get many return to keep them afloat, and Luka is worth whatever asking price if he wants out. Only realistic good pick Might be 2029 PHX pick and even that a toss up
@@ericleon9000 you had very bad examples "OKC, the Celtics, and the Warriors" because Boston and GSW never tanked to get the stars they have. The current toxic NBA fans think tanking is the way to go is just sad, yes, the team is having one bad year, but patience will turn things around for them.
@@AkagiRedSun Again, was Maxey a Top-5 pick? Was Booker? The Suns and Mavs right now would get the Nets a pick just outside the lottery, and it will be harder and harder for older teams to succeed...
dont worry brooklyn... dlo, jalen hood shifinio, and 3 valuable picks are on the way this summer we gonna solve one of those problems
For who Bridges??? Nahhhh
Lakers are not trading D’lo. They’re more likely to trade Austin reaves JHS and picks for bridges.
@@jadynhasstupid2275 which ever one i dont care
But in the Nets defense, there’s a reason Jalen Green was on the table. Dude was playing like hot garbage and was getting benched for Aaron Holiday at that time
Keep Bridges and Clax. You might be able to get a 1st for Cam. Otherwise nobody else is pulling any picks…..
bridges is slowly beginning the process of playing himself out of town...he will be a knick this offseason or before next years trade deadline
BK turned down 4 first rounders for Bridges wow, someone may loose their job 😮
I love seeing this dumpster fire in Brooklyn. Karma for how the owner, front office, and fan base treated kyrie. Now, live in obscurity for the next decade.
What were they thinking? Sure KD was the star they wanted but KD would not stay if they offloaded Kyrie. KD was not complaining about Kyrie’s antics and was still willing to play as long as Kyrie is a teammate. They were still playing well together.
Ben Simmons? WTF? That’s the guy they should have offloaded instead of Kyrie
@@walkrwalkr3622to be fair, as a Nets fan, nobody ever wanted Ben. James was dead set in reuniting with Darryl in Philly, so far as to refuse a long term max contract from Brooklyn so he could leave for philly next season. Nets were forced to trade James and we’ve been stuck with Ben ever since.
@@walkrwalkr3622 Prior to KD's injury, the Nets were 18-2. KD got injured, Kyrie demanded 4 years for $200 million, Joe Tsai declined and offered a contract with stipulations. Kyrie then requested a trade feeling unwanted
@@walkrwalkr3622offloading Ben would require someone being dumb enough to put up with his contract first
Personally I didn't blame them for that. Dude was way too much of a PR headache every year to be worth the ceiling of a second round exit instead of the perennial title contention that pairing was supposed to promise.
The nets issue is coaching. They have the talent..
As a Knicks fan I’ll keep my options to myself as I’m a Brooklyn resident
Sean marks smh 🤦♂️
“Brought in two stars and traded for James harden”
James catching a stray 😂
Gimme Ben and Mikal for DM
-cavs fan
KD, Kyrie and Harden should have to pay proceeds for 10 years for what they did to this franchise
Joe Tsai needs to be held accountable as well. "Cancerous" Kyrie is no longer on the roster
Sean Marks Screwed Sean Marks.
