You know it’s bad when the Nets have to start justifying and spinning the pick 1 month before the draft
Erik Slater@ErikSlater_
Something to note on Nets leading up to the draft: Nate Ament has been working out with trainer Zach Gonzales, who also trained Egor Demin during last year's pre-draft process. Brooklyn is reported to have interest in the 6'10" Tennessee forward.

@JacManuell I’d go with Chet. Though he had a bad series against the best big man of all time lol 7’1 37% three pt. Shooters don’t grow on trees.
English
If the Thunder decide to blow it up somewhat and trade Chet Homgren or Jalen Williams, who would you rather the Nets go after?
I think J Dub is an absolute star and if he gets his health right can be a perennial All-NBA guy.
English
This is perfect now we can sign hartenstein and use claxton to move up in the draft
English
Michael Porter Jr for Jalen Williams in the offseason
Trade would be legal in the offseason once Jdub is on his max contract
Who says no? (via @fanspo)
English
@BigBlindBets13 @JWeinbachNBA There is a difference between awful and unwatchable lol
English
@BKNetsStan @JWeinbachNBA Spoiler alert…. They are going to struggle either way
English
A trade idea between the Warriors and Nets:
• Warriors
Michael Porter Jr.
Terance Mann
• Nets
Jimmy Butler
No. 11 overall pick
Golden State will likely explore deals utilizing Butler’s $56.8M expiring contract to strengthen the roster this offseason.

During my appearances on podcasts. I try to maintain an even keel. It is after all only basketball which is meant to be a diversion. (and I did read Marshall McLuhan.)

Well if that's the case, they might as well fire the GM too because he's gonna come for that job as well @nikochanr3 @brooklynsbeat
Evan Sidery@esidery
Some within the league are now monitoring Kenny Atkinson’s job security as Cavaliers head coach after being swept in the Eastern Conference Finals. There’s some buzz building around Jason Kidd potentially eyeing Cleveland as a preferred landing spot after leaving the Mavericks.

Bill Simmons on the Cavaliers future:
"If Brooklyn called and said we'll give you the 6th pick and our 2029 1st for Mitchell, I would do it... I'm not even blinking" (via @BillSimmons)
Should the Nets do this?

Dylan Harper is welcome in BK
NBA Base@TheNBABase
There is already “league-wide chatter” that De’Aaron Fox’s time with the Spurs could be cut short, per @sam_amick Rival executives believe Dylan Harper is “simply too good to come off the bench for long,” which could force tough conversations about Fox's future in San Antonio. (nytimes.com/athletic/73034…)

Sometimes I think about half you guys wake up in the morning and think, “what tweet can I compose, what words can I string together that will make Joe Tsai see the error of his ways and fire the GM?”

@dbr0675own1 @NetsDaily rookie record!
English
@NetsDaily When was it when they fell in love with Egor? It was after work outs rights? I seem to recall Marc Stein reporting on it as early as June 8th or pre-draft
English
A lot of people think Brown has “star upside” and can fit Jordi game as well. Also I don’t think Nets yet have a clear idea of which direction they’ll go. Nor should they! Workouts are underway. Big trades come just before or during Draft which is five weeks from tomorrow.
BK-Nets-Stan@BKNetsStan
@ErikSlater_ @NetsDaily @LockedOnNets Does Sean Marks overthink the “star upside” narrative and take Darius Acuff over Mikel Brown? Feels like the optics could get ugly if Acuff is dropping numbers in Sacramento, even if Brown is the better fit for Jordi’s system.

Aday Mara Shooting Splits:
67% FG
56% FT
66% TS
81% at Rim
41% Midrange
30% 3 Pointers
English
@NetsNationCP He’s under contract for 2 years and can only get to BK via a salary dump. Picking up some picks for a rotation player ain’t bad. Don’t own our pick next year.
English
@NetsNationCP I wouldn’t mind! He helps teams take that next step!
English
Julius Randle is a strong offseason fit for the Brooklyn Nets as they build a tougher identity in the East.
After his run with the Minnesota Timberwolves alongside Anthony Edwards, Randle would bring scoring, physicality, and half-court stability to the Nets’ offense.
English
@NetsDaily Choosing Brown over Acuff will be the wise decision that gets Marks fired. Brown is probably the better longterm fit, but will not be as flashy as Acuff dropping 20 a night in Sac while losing 50 games! Media perception will have the better move look like idiocy.
English
Is it Mikal Brown Jr. for Nets at No. 6 … or will Brooklyn try to move? netsdaily.com/nets-draft-rum…

couldn't even get a haircut for his job interview #notmypg
Erik Slater@ErikSlater_
Darius Acuff on criticisms of his defense and whether his 6’7” wingspan will quell concerns: “To be honest with you, I don't really care… People are going to always have opinions… I know I want to play defense… I do feel like I need to pick up my defense. So I'm gonna do it."
English
@NYPost_Lewis @NetsDaily Mara to the Nets is a dark horse that’s probably not getting much attention. He checks a lot of boxes!!

Keaton Wagler, Aday Mara and St. John’s big man Zuby Ejiofor all told me they were meeting with the #Nets today.

Specifics and truths:
-The Harden-Simmons trade was objectively terrible
-As soon as the team he built to compete (not to contend) lost 50 games, he immediately pivoted and blew it up
-Who cares how much the Nets pay Jacque Vaughn? It doesn't affect the cap and it's not your money.
-His draft record is very good. I asked AI to do a thorough quantitative + qualitative evaluation of his draft record and it came up with the below. I trust this way more than "3 1st round picks in the last 8 years out the NBA" logic.
-Micromanaging a-hole is not a specific or a truth
English
Specifics & truths:
-waved Ben Simmons’ physical
-lost 50 games, a team he built to contend
-paying Jacque Vaughn through 2027
-3 1st round picks in last 8 years out the NBA
-0 All-Rookie players in 10 years (many All-Rookie guys drafted after Nyets picks)
-micromanaging a-hole…

I don't understand the 'fire Sean Marks' contingent. Especially right now. He's been awesome the last few years. The only reason they provide is "he hasn't delivered enough wins in 10 years". He took over the most fucked situation, possibly in league history, in 2016. Hired smart FO ppl (many who have gone on to be successful FO ppl elsewhere). Made shrewd signings, developed guys, changed the culture, hired a great coach, made BKN an attractive destination. Had the best free agent haul in the history of the franchise. Created one of the most formidable contenders in history. Nailed numerous picks in the 20s. Made awesome trades for KD, Mikal, CJ. Hired Jordi. Made a controversial pick at 8 last year, and it was probably the right pick. Yes, he's made a couple of bad trades (Harden is the glaring one). Hired a couple of bad coaches. He poorly managed the big 3 era. He didn't tank properly in 2025. Most of all, he's had bad luck (COVID, the lottery, toe on the line). But his process is sound. The guy is probably batting ~.800 over his tenure, and you could argue close to 1.000 since the big 3 era ended. That's way better than most GMs. But because the ping pong balls didn't fall his way this year, it's 'fire Sean Marks'. If you want him fired, be specific. What would you have him do differently? Are you still mad about the Harden trade? Is it the Ben Saraf pick? Which GM would you pick to come in and bank on doing a better job? @brooklynsbeat @brooklynnets85 @spenharris @NetsDaily @BillyReinhardt @LucasKaplan_ @BillSimmons
