Nets stuff mostly. But also…other stuff
Tanking solution idea: bottom 3 teams are auto-assigned the 8-9-10 draft picks d slots. Everybody would be clawing to stay out of the drop zone. 1 game playoff in the event of a tie.

Nets fans…just an FYI. Any time the phrase “top 5 pick” gets used my ears perk up.

Ok Adam Silver clearly hates MPJ.
San Antonio Spurs guard De’Aaron Fox has been named by NBA Commissioner Adam Silver to replace injured Milwaukee Bucks forward Giannis Antetokounmpo in the 2026 NBA All-Star Game. Fox joins USA Stripes. Miami Heat guard Norman Powell will move from USA Stripes to Team World.

Shocked, SHOCKED I SAY. I’m sure Utah will file a petition against the vile Grizzlies who tried to pass off these clearly damaged goods!
Chris Haynes: "BREAKING: Utah Jazz star Jaren Jackson Jr. is likely to miss the remainder of the season to undergo surgery on his left knee to ensure his longterm health after a localized PVNS growth was discovered post trade, league sources tell me."

@toley.bsky.social just found out Jason Calacanis went to Xaverian and I’m so sorry a fellow alumni of mine owes you $500k. Our bad.
Who's the most famous alum of your high school?
I'll go first: David Draiman of Disturbed

I’ll leave it up to the chat: who’s more famous, Chris Mullin or Scott Baio? Both considerably less famous today than their peaks.

So! Nolan is good, huh? That’s damned interesting. I didn’t see this coming. “Can Traore play the 2?” will be an interesting question if the possibility opens up to get the kid from Houston. And now we have room for him to fail with a ton of on-ball reps.

Can someone explain how we lost tonight?
So proud of our guys 🥹

These people saw a glaring market inefficiency and spat in the face of every civics class. Pretty simple stuff. You just needed dozens of spare million dollars to profit.
easy slogan for the next democratic presidential candidate is “i will reform the corrupt supreme court and repeal citizens united”
“When Citizens United was decided in 2010, billionaires had spent $18 million on the 2000 election, $13M 2004 and $16M in 2008. Then came the deluge. In 2012 it was $231M, and nearly doubled again in next three election cycles —to $682M in 2016, $1.2 billion in 2020 and $2.6 billion in 2024.” Gift:

Pretty clear we’re gonna win this game. No hope of a comeback. Should probably be using this information to bet but the entire industry sucks ass so staying out. Embracing the Void once again.
Not sure I should thank the Knicks for losing to the Pacers? Seems more likely somehow the tanking Nets will win…unless we pull half our team off the floor. Possible!

Ok this is starting to feel like anti-MPJ bias at this stage.
Probably doesn’t help that MPJ’s regularly missing games with injury.

Apparently the date for the NBA draft lottery is May 10th. That’s 89 days. I can live that long. I hope.

Wait, wait, WAIT…Sacramento doesn’t owe their pick to anyone? Are they trying to win? This is like a blue lobster. Naturally occurring rarity.

I have, once again, touched the Void and no longer care whether the Nets win or lose. We have 4 interesting rookies on this team and lots of ways to improve. We made a mistake by hiring a good coach so now we have to live with that. Boo hoo.

Is it just me, or have the Nets been getting to the rim a lot more lately? Seems like we’re dunking the hell out of the ball. Might be a consequence of playing without Dëmin and MPJ?

Have to think he was NOT flipping Whammy off here, but the rim itself. Despite being an odious double-L Collin, I’ll give him a pass here.
Collin Sexton misses the first free throw, cusses out the rim, makes the second free throw, flips off the rim 😂

lol we’re wining this game too. We’ll be seeing Chicago again soon (battling for the 8th seed).

I think Keith is truth telling here (without explicitly saying it): the Nets had a boring deadline. That’s it: boring. And I think that’s why we’re a bit disappointed.
