As Brooklyn fans continue to enjoy the Nets' dominant play throughout this season, we are all amazed by the excellent playmaking skills of James Harden, the masterful scoring moves of Kyrie Irving, and the accurate shooting of Joe Harris.
From the franchise's inception in the former ABA (American Basketball Association) in 1967, the New York-New Jersey-Brooklyn Nets have endured an exciting journey throughout the past fifty-plus seasons. Recently, NBA fans have witnessed some of the most exciting trifectas in league history in Miami, Cleveland, and Golden State.
When Detroit Pistons guard Cory Joseph's layup attempt rolled off the rim, narrowly securing the Nets' 113-111 road win Friday night, Brooklyn avoided its sixteenth loss of the year. In every NBA season, top teams may struggle against underperforming opponents, but it's been especially obvious for Brooklyn repeatedly this season.
As we approach this year's NBA trade deadline, the Brooklyn Nets are currently second in the East, competing with the Philadelphia 76ers for the conference's top seed. Despite the current excitement, Brooklyn fans should not forget the franchise's journey over the past few seasons.

Many years ago, during a late-night basement smoke session. Where we were passing blunts, sipping drinks, and talk about making money. My friend Damon made a profound statement. He said "One day soon, New York State is gonna legalize weed, and when it happens, I'm gonna make some bread!"
I can remember when I was a kid playing the game of basketball. In our era, most players just blindly listened to their coach, followed instructions, and believed in their coaches' ability because of his or her position of authority. Today's basketball players bring a different mindset regarding the way they are taught the finer points of the game.
