The Nets have 99 problems but Tinder isn't one

Coming off their third straight loss and falling to 16–19 on the season, the Brooklyn Nets have a lot of problems that need to be addressed before the beginning of the postseason. But, clearly tinder ins’t one of them.

As the Atlanta Hawks were trying their first (and possibly last) “Swipe Right Night” during Wednesday’s game, one Brooklyn Nets fan inquired why the Nets weren’t doing the same. The Nets responded by quoting Jay-Z, a former minority owner of the Nets.

If you havin' girl problems I feel bad for you son… RT @steviePOPO: Hey Nets, how come you can't be like the Hawks & have a Tinder night?

From the archive. This was filed on 8 January 2015, and it is short because it was short then: a note put up while a story was still moving, not a piece written to be read years afterwards. It is kept at the address it went up at, in the wording it went up in.

The desk it belongs to is Nets — 130 pieces, oldest to newest. A single filing out of that many is a sentence out of a paragraph, and the desk is where the paragraph is.

The 2014-15 season contributed 95 pieces to the desk, and this is one of them. The archive is arranged by season, so the whole of that run can be read in the order it was filed.

Kept deliberately. When the site was re-set every address was carried over intact, including the ones behind two-line filings, because a link that breaks costs more than a page that is short.
