BATTERED NETS FANS — READY TO GET HURT AGAIN!

The Brooklyn Nets suffered their first preseason loss against the Miami Heat, but the final score is NOT the story!

MIKEL BROWN JR. HAS FINALLY ARRIVED!

After waiting to see Brooklyn's young guard make his debut, Nets fans finally got their first look at Brown in action — and there were plenty of encouraging signs.

On today's episode of Battered Nets Fans, we're breaking down Brown's preseason debut, his confidence with the basketball, his offensive potential, and what his arrival could mean for Jordi Fernández's rotation.

We'll also discuss the Nets' defensive struggles against Miami, what needs to improve before the regular season, and how Brown could fit alongside Egor Dëmin, Nolan Traoré and the rest of Brooklyn's young core.

The preseason record doesn't matter nearly as much as player development, and tonight gave Nets fans something to be excited about.

Is Mikel Brown Jr. ready to make an immediate impact?

The Brooklyn Nets remain PERFECT in the preseason!

Brooklyn defeated the Washington Wizards 131-122 to improve to 3-0, and once again there were plenty of encouraging signs from Jordi Fernández's group.

On this episode of Battered Nets Fans, we're breaking down Michael Porter Jr.'s big return, Julius Randle continuing to operate as a playmaker, another impressive performance from Nolan Traoré, Noah Clowney's shooting, Keon Ellis' impact and what Brooklyn's rotations could look like when the regular season begins.

We'll also discuss the areas that still need improvement — including turnovers, interior defense and a difficult shooting night for Egor Dëmin — and whether Brooklyn's explosive preseason offense is something we can actually expect to carry over.

PLUS: the Nets officially unveiled their 2026-27 Classic Edition uniforms and court, celebrating the franchise's ABA roots and the 50th anniversary of the NBA-ABA merger. Are these already among the best Nets uniforms ever?

It's only preseason…but 3-0 is 3-0.

The Brooklyn Nets are off to an encouraging start to the preseason.

Brooklyn followed up its dominant win over Charlotte with another victory, this time beating the Philadelphia 76ers 114-108 to improve to 2-0.

On this episode of Battered Nets Fans, we’re breaking down what stood out from the win, the continued growth of the young core, the performances from Egor Dëmin and the rest of Brooklyn’s developing rotation, and what these first two preseason games may be telling us about this team.

It’s only preseason, but the energy, aggressiveness and overall development are giving Nets fans something to be excited about.

Is this team further along than we expected?

The new-look Brooklyn Nets have officially taken the floor — and there was a LOT to like.

Brooklyn opened the preseason with a dominant 124–90 win over the Charlotte Hornets, and on this episode of Battered Nets Fans, we're breaking down our first real look at the 2026–27 Nets.

How did Jordi Fernández's new starting lineup look? Is Egor Dëmin becoming the more aggressive offensive player Nets fans have been waiting for? And most importantly, what did we learn from our first look at Julius Randle and Michael Porter Jr. playing together?

MPJ finished with 16 points on 6-of-9 shooting and 4-of-6 from three, while Randle had 13 points, 3 assists and zero turnovers. We even got an early glimpse of their chemistry when Randle created a bucket for Porter.

Dëmin's night is more nuanced. He finished with 6 points and 5 assists in 18 minutes, shooting 2-of-5 — with both makes coming from three — and attempted zero free throws. So while his playmaking was encouraging, I wouldn't say one preseason game answered the question about attacking the paint yet. That's actually a very good debate for the show.

It's only preseason — but after one game, are we starting to see what this Nets team could become?

The wait is over — Brooklyn Nets basketball is officially back! 

On this episode of Battered Nets Fans, we react to everything coming out of Nets Media Day and look ahead to the biggest questions entering training camp and preseason.

What should we expect from Julius Randle and Michael Porter Jr.? How big of a leap can Egor Dëmin make in Year 2? What will No. 6 pick Mikel Brown Jr. look like in his first NBA training camp? Which young players will earn real minutes? And what will Jordi Fernández's rotation actually look like when the games begin?

We'll also discuss the competition for playing time, the development of Brooklyn's young core, the biggest things we want to learn during preseason, and what would make us more — or less — optimistic about this team before Opening Night.

The 2026-27 journey starts NOW.

For our first episode, we're breaking down everything that happened during the Brooklyn Nets offseason and looking ahead to the 2026-27 season.

Brooklyn is coming off a 20-win season, but this roster looks very different. Julius Randle arrives in Brooklyn, No. 6 overall pick Mikel Brown Jr. joins an already fascinating young core, Egor Dëmin enters Year 2, and Jordi Fernández now has the challenge of turning all of these pieces into a team with an identity.

We'll discuss the biggest offseason moves, the young players we're most excited to watch, potential lineups, what Randle and Michael Porter Jr. mean for the roster, and what should actually count as a successful season for the Nets.

The tank math just keeps getting worse…

The Brooklyn Nets pick up ANOTHER win — and while it feels good in the moment, it might be costing Brooklyn where it matters most…

📉 Draft lottery odds
 📉 Top pick chances

Welcome to Nets therapy.

The tank math just got complicated…

The Brooklyn Nets split their last two games — a loss to the Orlando Magic and a win over the Washington Wizards — but that victory might’ve actually hurt more than helped.

Because every win right now…
📉 drops draft lottery odds
📉 pushes Brooklyn down the tank standings
📉 and changes the rebuild strategy

BUT…

👀 The rookies are BALLING.

On this episode of Battered Nets Fans, we break down:

🔥 How the Wizards win impacted the tank
📊 Updated draft odds & standings outlook
📈 Why the young guys are flashing real upside
💪 Which rookies stepped up most
🤔 Tank vs development — what should Brooklyn prioritize?
🧠 Is winning culture actually more important than lottery position?

Are the Nets accidentally playing themselves out of a top pick… or building something better long-term?

The Brooklyn Nets went 2-1 over the last 3 games and should've won all 3 games. Cam Thomas is back and Mikal Bridges finally looked like an All-Star this year, a lot to cover on this episode of Battered Nets Fans.

The Nets win back to back games against the Heat and Bulls and find themselves .500 after 16 games. Is Mikal Bridges doing enough to be the face of the franchise though?

The Nets suffer two tough losses to superstars, and it shows that lack won’t be enough for this team to compete with the big boys.
