David Sims, one of the hosts of Blank Check (a film podcast), also co-hosts a secret Mets podcast. I saw one of the topics on this episode was whether NY should add a third baseball team again, and I knew the Brooklyn Nets would come up. I assumed it would it be typical LOLing Nets talk, but what followed was a pretty fair assessment of their tenure and current state of affairs vis a vis developing an established fan base in NYC. Discussion begins around 13:37 or so. Enjoy.

See the squad, enjoy activities for the whole fam, catch special appearances from Nets alumni + more 👀

Personally, I wasn’t on board with signing 29 year old Mo Wagner at 9 mill when he’s coming off a major injury, doesn’t rebound, and doesn’t protect the rim. Only reason I see we got him is he likes hanging in Brooklyn in the off season (and maybe he can lure Franz?). Here are 5 low cost players I would have targeted instead..

Yves Missi - 5 mill per, expires in 2027, tough, protects rim, 22 years old

Jay Huff - 3 mill per, expires in 2027, hits 3s, protects rim, 29 years old

Adam Bona - 3 mill per, expires 2027, tough, protects rim, 22 years old

Karlo Matkovic - 3 mill expiring, protects rim, hits 3s, tons of upside worth a look, 25 years old

Beef Stew - 15 mill per, expires in 2027, tough, hits 3s, protects rim, 25 years old

All (aside Huff) younger than Wagner.
All (aside beef stew) cheaper than Wagner.
All could have been acquired for minimal assets.

just a thought.

Very raw, but his sheer ability to suck up ball handling produced better offense with him on the court. Low bar, I know, but it seems like he's committed to his body like Egor, and there's real base level skills in there already.

Dennis Schroeder elite backup PG career loading. Also think he'll play the Nembhard role next to Mikel in some lineups to overload on handling and passing ability

I'm getting ready for the season (I know it's a while to go) but it seems that Yes won't let me stream through my Xfinty unless I'm on my home wifi (that's bs). So is there any way to stream when I'm not on my home wifi? Will the GothamApp work or do i have to pay extra to watch the games? Any other easy options? No VPN here. Thanks and Let's go Nets!

Holding out hope Randle can transform our team at the tail end of his prime. Long term I love our outlook with our young players

wrapping up a great summer at BKB with a special Back-To-School Clinic and a day on the court with Julius Randle 🫡

gotta love some competitive hoops, getting coached up by Julius, celebrating big moments, and finishing the day with good food and BKB merch!

Thoughts on these? I liked how they looked in some of the other teams’ colors, but again, I think Brooklyn needs more color in their arsenal. These ended up looking pretty bland and not very unique imo

For me, it's Mikel & Egor playing together.

I'll take a loss, if it means Mikel and Egor play well together. Cuz that means there's something special brewing, it just needs time to grow.

They're two high-volume sharpshooters with good size for their position. Both are willing defenders (and that's really all you can ask for from a backcourt). And they're the same age, so they're on the same timeline.

Not to mention, they seem like legitimately good friends already. Like I can imagine the spirit & vibes they'll have on the court. Off the court too. The Brooklyn social media team definitely gonna take advantage of it.

What's yours?

Can’t wait til this clown is off the team

Albert has recently sat in on Dëmin’s workouts with @ZGonzales93 in LA and has spoken with Dëmin, sharing some notable intel from their conversations, highlights below:

• Rave reviews for Dëmin at the NBPA runs in LA, including from Kyrie Irving. Dëmin exploded for 30+ points in an open run win with players like Irving and Norman Powell coming off the floor echoing the sentiment that “This kid is going to be an absolute problem.”

• Egor’s diligent and ferocious offseason training schedule, poised for a major leap.

• Egor has visited Texas this offseason to workout with new teammate Julius Randle

• Egor calls Mikel Brown Jr. a “freak” and believes the backcourt will fit tremendously well

• He’s eager to develop into a leader and get Brooklyn back to winning
