(Photo by Bruce Bennett/Getty Images)   It’s been a tough season for the Brooklyn Nets. Fortunately for them, it’s already over. Moreover, it seems like they’ve finally found their next coach. According to a report by Adrian Wojnarowski of ESPN, the Nets are on the verge of signing Sacramento Kings top assistant Jordi Fernandez to be Jacque Vaughn’s permanent replacement. ESPN Sources: Jordi Fernandez has emerged as the Brooklyn Nets’ choice to become the franchise’s next coach, separating himself in a wide, month-long search that now has the Nets prepared to hire the Sacramento Kings’ t ..read more

(Photo by Bruce Bennett/Getty Images)   The Brooklyn Nets have been through a lot lately. Signing Kevin Durant and Kyrie Irving and trading for James Harden will go down as bad historical moves by this franchise. Their departures set them back in a big way, and they did not get as much in return, especially considering how much trouble they caused. It also cost Jacque Vaughn his job, as he failed to make the most of the little talent he had this season and was let go midway through the campaign. The Nets had Kevin Ollie fill in as an interim head coach, but it doesn’t seem like he’s done ..read more

(Photo by Bruce Bennett/Getty Images)   The Brooklyn Nets are in a tough spot right now. They don’t have a roster that’s good enough to compete, and they don’t have draft picks to get better in the foreseeable future. They’re not the primary free agent destination in town, and after the Kevin Durant and Kyrie Irving fiasco, perhaps star players will be hesitant before joining them. On top of that, one of their few good players is most likely going to be out in the summer. According to NBA insider Frank Isola, this could be the end of Nic Claxton’s tenure in Brooklyn (via Legion Hoops ..read more

(Photo by Mike Lawrie/Getty Images)   For the second year in a row, the Brooklyn Nets didn’t get much out of Ben Simmons this season. The former number one draft pick only played in 15 games this season due to injuries, averaging only 6.1 points, 7.9 rebounds, and 5.7 assists. Throughout the NBA fanbase, there have been many concerns and fears about Simmons and his future, with some people calling on Brooklyn to waive him and leave him behind. But the Nets aren’t making that choice, according to Brian Lewis of The New York Post, via NBACentral. He is reporting that the Nets are “not givin ..read more

(Photo by Christian Petersen/Getty Images)   During his playing career in the NBA thus far, veteran guard Spencer Dinwiddie, currently of the Los Angeles Lakers, has played for five different teams and one of those teams twice, as he had two separate stints with the Brooklyn Nets. Dinwiddie’s second stint with the Nets only lasted 74 games before he was bought out by the team and was free to sign with the Lakers as an unrestricted free agent in the buyout market. The addition of Dinwiddie was thought to be a potential game-changer for the Lakers as he would bring some veteran leadership a ..read more

(Photo by Ethan Miller/Getty Images)   During the first few years of his career in the NBA with the Philadelphia 76ers, guard Ben Simmons was widely considered to be one of the best players in the league, especially on the defensive side of the basketball floor. Simmons was named an All-Star three straight years during his time with the 76ers while playing alongside fellow star Joel Embiid, who became one of the most lethal duos in the league. Unfortunately, the partnership between the two stars wasn’t meant to be, with Simmons falling apart in the NBA playoffs and ultimately forcing his ..read more

(Photo by Ethan Miller/Getty Images)   The rebuilding Brooklyn Nets have some interesting and capable young players, but it is looking unlikely that they will participate in this season’s play-in tournament. They have a 26-44 record and are in 11th place in the Eastern Conference, and for them to have any shot at reaching the play-in tourney, they would have to make up the 4.5 games that separate them and the 10th-place Atlanta Hawks. Regardless of how this season turns out, the Nets are hopeful about this offseason, because they feel they can land a star. “They feel they can recruit play ..read more

(Photo by Sarah Stier/Getty Images)   Ever since he was the No. 1 pick in the 2016 NBA Draft, Ben Simmons has been thought to have borderline superstar potential, but it is now painfully obvious he won’t even come close to reaching that level of play. Since coming to the Brooklyn Nets midway through the 2021-22 season, he has played in a grand total of 57 games, partly due to a back condition. He has been declared out for the rest of this season because of that back ailment, and now there seem to be whispers that his Nets tenure may be over. If the Nets do actually buy out the remainder o ..read more

(Photo by Sarah Stier/Getty Images)   Over the last few years, Ben Simmons has been one of the biggest enigmas in sports. He was considered to be brimming with talent when he was the No. 1 pick in the 2016 NBA Draft, but even though he has been a good player, he hasn’t even come close to fulfilling his potential. Then there is the matter of his injury problems, especially his back ailment that has cost him many games over the past couple of years. Anthony Puccio reminded everyone on Twitter how much Simmons has been paid by the Brooklyn Nets since arriving there midway through the 2021-22 ..read more
