Nets Daily News
Every piece the desk filed on Nets Daily News, newest first.
29 pieces, filed between and
An index, and an honest one. There are 29 pieces under the label “Nets Daily News”, and the list holds all of them — nothing left out to keep the page tidy, nothing added to make it look fuller than it is.
Everything on the list was filed in 2015 and 2016. The dates under the headlines are the dates the pieces went up and they have not been touched since: an archive that quietly re-dates itself is worth less than one that admits how old it is.
The name survives from the old site; the desk that took its work over is Nets, and the full map of desks with their counts is on the section index.
There is no editorial layer on this page at all — no rating, no ranking, no note steering you towards one item over another. The order is chronological and that is the whole of it.

The Best Role for Joe Johnson
Billy King, a general manager known for his willingness to make an abundance of roster transactions, seemed to have gone into overdrive this past offseason. With the “Five Year Plan” in the hindsight of the organization, King did his best to bring in players that were athletic, young and most importantly for Brooklyn, affordable.

Opinion
Cleveland is a better matchup for the Nets
If the NBA playoffs started today, the Nets would face the Atlanta Hawks in the first round. The Hawks’ all-around talent and chemistry makes them a less-ideal match-up for Brooklyn. Personally, I think that the Nets have a better chance to win against the Cleveland Cavaliers.
