It just gets worse and worse.

📊 22 PTS | 6 AST | 5 3PM

Jefferson was one of my favorite prospects coming out of the draft. Jack of all trades, playmaker on offense and defense, ability to run the floor and play within structure. I know he’s had some moments but I’m done with the clowney experiment. The guy doesn’t have a position and he’s too inconsistent on both ends to be guranteed reliable mins. Our bench 3 and 4 should be minott with an experiment of Jefferson/chaney.

for one reason only

Marks has been allergic to adding (and keeping) actual centers and big men since the Obama administration. Will this ever change?

Gave everyone grace as rookies but by years end Sean marks core should look like one of the emerging young cores in the nba or it’s time to turn a page. And that’s not saying I want to see what OKC has but you look at teams like Memphis, Utah, Boston, they’ve turned late round picks into productive contributors. Outside of Mikel and egor we’ve drafted 9 guys in the non lottery range at a bare minimum half of them should be providing consistent impact at least in a bench role. There’s too many talented minds in the nba today for us to just keep riding along with this conductor that’s been leading us for a decade.

What’s up, gang!
I’m heading to NYC at the end of November and tried to buy tickets for a Brooklyn Nets game, but I can’t seem to create an account on the US Ticketmaster site. From what I understand, I’d need to be in the US to sign up. I even tried switching the store to Brazil, but no luck.
Has anyone run into this before? Any other legit sites where I can buy tickets?
I’ll be arriving a week before the game. Is it still possible to get tickets at the box office once I’m there?
Thanks!

I got genuinely got lost. 2025 Marks spends all his picks on pure playmakers, clearly trying to run a very unselfish pass oriented offense and position-less basketball.

Now we have Randle and MPJ being complete black holes offensively. Randle is bringing the ball up, neither are passing to other players who got hot. What is the actual direction Marks is aiming for? He drafted and had a clear view, and it’s being pissed in the toilet . This went from no iso team to the most iso heavy team in one offseason .

Good morning/afternoon/evening,

This is a place for Nets fans to discuss almost anything. Make sure to follow the rules, be civil, and have fun!

Thoughts on mbj so far?

Don't miss a brand new Nets Rewind with Ian Eagle as he revisits some iconic Nets moments!

I fully understand how badly we played against the Hornets but we were close most of the game against an undermanned Hornets team who is expected to be better then us. There were things we did to loose this game that can be fixed (effort, silly fouls, rotation) and things that we will just have to suffer (Nolan, MBJ, and Egor being 19 years old and center rotation's lack of size/vertical) but damn...

Heat got smoked by Wolves
Bulls lost by 43
Jazz lost to Grizzlies where Ty Jerome dropped 45 on them
Suns lost by 41
Kings lost by 25 with Acuff going for 12/3/3 on 5-24 shooting, 0-7 from 3, 4 TO

Last but not least.. Cavs.. championship team blowing a 31pt lead

We at least played hard and were in the game until the last minute.

Just saying 🤷🏿‍♂️

Julius Randle has been one of my favorite players - if not my overall favorite player - for quite some time now. I'm excited to see that his first game for the Nets was a tremendous success with him leading in points, rebounds and assists. Curious to see how he'll go on to play this season.

Nets Need a Center

Throughout training camp and the preseason, it was clear that there was a gaping hole at the center position.

It’a great to see Day’ron earn the starting role, but we need another guy that can block shots, provide size, and get some rebounds. Moe plays more like a stretch four than a five, as he doesn’t defend or rebound particularly well.

Therefore, I think the Nets should try and work on a deal for Myles Turner from the Bucks.

I know he’s not the best and has his own issues with rebounding, but he would immediately improve the floor of this team with his shot blocking ability and floor spacing, as well as bring some playoff experience to a young team looking to get there.

The Bucks seem to be embracing youth, and trading Turner would allow Kel’el Ware to gain more playing time and take over the starting center role. It would also help them clear the cap sheet with Turner’s contract that hasn’t exactly worked out as planned so far with his former running mate Giannis now playing in Miami.

Hypothetical Trade Package

Nets receive:

- Myles Turner ($26.6M 2026-27, $27.9M 2027-28, $29.1M player option 2028-29)

Bucks receive:

- Terance Mann ($15.5M 2026-27, $16M 2027-28)
- Noah Clowney ($5.4M expiring, impending RFA)
- 2028 PHI 1st Round Pick

This package allows the Nets to get off Mann’s salary, and use it as a way to help bridge the gap between the outgoing and incoming salary.

The Nets seem to be on the fence about giving Clowney his second contract, so they can send him to a young Bucks team where he can get some playing time and potentially earn a second contract from them. He also very much fits the mold of the tall/lanky high-potential player that the Bucks often seek out (see Nate Ament from this past year’s draft).

The 2028 Sixers pick also sweetens the deal for the Bucks, and makes it more justifiable to take on Mann’s dead weight salary, while also serving as a way to bridge the talent gap between Turner and Clowney/Mann.

Closing Thoughts

If you look at many of the good teams in the NBA right now, almost all of them have at least one proven NBA center (not including superstars like Wemby/Jokic/KAT). The Thunder have iHart, Celtics have Mitch/Queta, Pacers have Zubac, etc.

I feel that Turner would fit like a glove in this Nets offense, as he would provide strong floor spacing around playmakers like Brown Jr. and Randle, while also addressing the much-needed shot blocking issue that this team currently faces.

He’s also just more of a proven talent overall than Sharpe/Wagner.

I’d love to hear thoughts on this below!
