We got him locked up here and we’re fun again, whether we win or lose. The majority of our “fanbase” are a joke for putting the blame on Marks. Marks turned the shittiest situation in NBA history around in 3-4 years and landed us 2 top 15 players in the league.
19/20: KD injured and Kyrie injured too. Covid year, it was a wash
20/21: This was our year. Amazing roster, amazing team, undone by injuries to 2 of our top 3 players and we still lost to the champs in game 7 double OT. Sucks giving up Caris and Allen for 1 year of Harden but it was the right move, we were a juggernaut and we weren’t gonna pay Allen imo.
21/22: poor roster construction, Marks can take the blame here in this sense. Harden wasn’t the same and saw Ky’s antics and wanted out. Nash’s coaching not a help either
22/23: Solid roster, maybe missing a big, we dropped Nash, rightfully so, and things are looking great. We go on a tear until Ky wants out.
Our big 3 era was undone by injuries, our stars living up to their reputations (outside of KD, love and respect that guy), and Marks can take the blame for holding on to Nash too long and a poor construction in 21/22.
The culture and practices put into place were all destroyed when the stars came. They’re gone and now we’re playing hard nosed basketball, giving 100% and seeing new stars be born in front of our eyes. We didn’t lose KD and Ky for free and turned them into great assets. Lock them up, keep Jacque at the helm and we’ll be in a good spot. Marks built us up and Marks will 100% get us back to where we need to be. We’ll have our ups and downs, our bad losses and our good wins (we’ve seen this already), but ENJOY the ride. We’re not gonna be a title contender, so but damn do we have a fun and lovable team. With some luck, we’ll equal the accomplishments of that KD/Kyrie era and win 1 playoff series.
There was a Nets before KD/Kyrie and there’s a Nets after KD/Kyrie. We’re fun again and I’m excited for our games again after the pressure of expectations and dark cloud of being under the microscope. Sports are fun and it’s fun again! As always, Let’s Go Nets!
We love you, Mikal. I will give you everything I own for you to stay in Brooklyn 😭😂

You’d better like it here, buddy. Your contract isn’t over for a while. 😈😈
In all seriousness, very pleased with his showing. I genuinely think he can be an all-star next year.

You guys shitted on the idea of Bridges trade initially and rightfully so because it’s KD but it’s worked out for y’all and I’m happy the twins have made it fun again In Brooklyn. Please beat the fkn Bucks in playoffs

I love the vibe again, and Mikal for all-star 2024

this is speculative and i’m no parasocial stan but jj reddick (podcast partners) lives in brooklyn and i am sure he has made the transition (where to eat, where to hang out, etc.) even easier

NGL this feels extra nice knowing he’s locked up for 3 more years – meanwhile Kyrie is ducking questions about whether he’ll resign in Dallas 😂
I feel like Mikal is learning how to be a leader on the fly after being on a team with CP3 + Book as the main guys. Stuff like this helps a lot. There was also a huddle today where he was super vocal. We need that from him.

Is this what it feels like?

He’s a better player than KD.
Particularly when you account for not being constantly injured multiple times per season.

Love this dude. Thrilled he’s a net. Anyone saying he’s better than KD is a straight clown.

If we travel over Brooklyn Bridges long enough it’ll lead us to a ring! I believe in this group of guys. We keep Clax and the Twins together and we’ll find a way.

Kal is one of those guys that is just positive no matter what, never heard a bad word about him from a teammate, love that man

This is awesome to see. Feels like the energy from 2018-2019’s group all over again. Love this dude!

Loving the vibes he’s bringing to the team. He’s going to be the undisputed leader of this team moving forward.
Let’s go get it. Brooklyn Bridges!

Good to see the team gelling. That’s what it’s supposed to look like when focus is on the team rather than on individual players.

Bridges seems likable and marketable AF. Give him kyries shoe deal and I’ll wear those things to my office job! Haha

Welp, Ky. Guess it wasn’t “the organization.”
