2017: Jarrett Allen, 19, falls in the draft because his “lack of love” for the game
2021: Jarrett Allen is a $100 million man - 5th highest among centers in the NBA
KD has been bad, but it’s wild how quickly people forget how much he carried this team despite all the ridiculous stuff that happened this year.
30 PPG in 38 min 2 years removed from Achilles rehab. Harden quit. Kyrie was out all year. Nash was awful. Team wasn’t built right.
Please, not the logo!
All seriousness, Lopez is one of the most selfless human beings and I’m not quite sure he saw this as “revenge.” But … he came back and helped his team get past his old team
Sources around the league believe there is a “verbal agreement” between the Nets and Rockets that would bring James Harden to Brooklyn, and create a superteam with Kevin Durant and Kyrie Irving.

I’m told that Kyrie Irving was indeed at the 40/40 club with a few Brooklyn Nets players last night, including Caris LeVert, Jared Dudley, Theo Pinson and Alan Williams.

Kevin Durant signed as a Net until he’s 38. Kyrie Irving would be signed til he’s 35 with the extension.
Wild thinking that KD and Kyrie will likely retire as Brooklyn Nets.
Some personal news… Super pumped to announce I’ve joined

Couldn’t be more excited to learn and grow with such a great team.
Nets get an elite defender in Ben Simmons, spacing with Seth Curry, and a bruiser in Andre Drummond.
AND… they recouped 2 of 4 picks they traded in last year’s Harden trade.
Kenny Atkinson is the reason why the Nets are in this position. He implemented a blue-collar identity into the culture and deserved a shot with the stars. Built something from nothing.
The Brooklyn Nets have not practiced what they preached re culture. Atkinson will be coveted.
The Brooklyn Nets have officially eliminated the Los Angeles Lakers from playoff contention following a 111-106 victory. It's the first time LeBron James has missed the postseason since 2005.
In his return, D'Angelo Russell finished with 21 points, 13 assists 3 steals (6 TO's)
Sean Marks completely revamped this Nets team since the deadline.
Added: Ben Simmons, Seth Curry, Andre Drummond, Goran Dragic
Lost: James Harden, Paul Millsap, Jevon Carter
I saw a 19-year-old come from LA to NY, ready to take on the world and change his reputation. I learned about D’Angelo, the person. I saw a leader emerge and team grow right in front of my eyes.
It was short-lived, but it was fun.
Farewell,
