Not actually Butch Beard. Basketball Junkie. Tweets about all things Brooklyn Nets — someday all of the suffering will be worth it.

If Nolan Traore has one more good game the Nets will have no choice but to put him on a minutes restriction

Respectfully, why is Chaney Johnson playing closing minutes of a winnable game against the reigning NBA champs in early November? This front office 😬
Chaney Johnson has struggled with driving closeouts tonight. He has been forced into some difficult attempts at the rim.

Put Mikel in

Interesting 🤔
Great passer and rebounder. Has worked with Jordi in the past. Acquiring him would allow the Nets to put Sharpe back in his natural role as a glass destroyer off the bench.

I need 2-3 of them included in a blockbuster trade in February or next summer.
If you needed any more evidence the Nets are committed to the Flatbush 5, the historic Draft class were all exercised through 2027-28. Patience remains the theme @NetsDaily netsdaily.com/nets-news/1154…

I can’t remember a rookie as talented and with as much promise as Mikel Brown Jr. He makes the right pass and can hit a clutch shot when the moment calls for it. The kid is a leader, straight up and oozes star potential.

If the Nets could just start winning some games, all of these injuries are opening the door for a Play-In spot…

This isn’t a surprise. This was the first thing I thought of for the Nets when I heard Jaylen Brown was available this past summer. I’m sure Jaylen himself didn’t want to be in Brooklyn either because of it.
The Celtics reportedly tried to trade Jaylen Brown to the Nets, but Brooklyn rejected the deal because of his ties to Kyrie Irving, per @NYPost_Lewis Jaylen Brown publicly defended Kyrie Irving after his suspension for promoting an antisemitic video, calling Nets owner Joe Tsai’s criticism of Irving “alarming.” Brown later criticized Tsai directly, questioning his business relationships and suggesting he also needed to be held accountable.

It wasn’t just the shots that Mikel Brown Jr. was making last night. Some of those passes were absolutely exquisite 🎯 and they were really easy passes too. Cross court one hand type of passes. Dare I say J.Kidd-esque?

A year from now, Mikel Brown Jr. will be in that situation again and remember THIS moment. 3 years from now, same thing. 8 years from now, same thing — he’ll remember how he felt at the end of his 3rd NBA game and will never forget that feeling or let it happen again

A loss like that isn’t as devastating when you have no expectations. I’m a Nets fan. You can’t kill me
