In moves
that caused waves in the NSL, the Brooklyn Nets parted with coveted All-Star
guard, Kyrie Irving. With analytics galore, the GM Breece decided to pull the
trigger and instigate changes for the future. Evaluating the trajectory of the
current crop, the organisation decided to invest in progress and potential,
over instant impact. In the current swells of the NSL landscape, the
ever-competitive league was cause for change. The catalyst inevitably being,
the loggerhead situation with both Kyrie Irving and Jamal Murray. Under the tutelage
of Irving, Murray has excelled, but according to sources close to the Nets
organisation � ��the two had developed a friendly rivalry that on the surface presented
as a jovial and jocular connection, but underneath seemed the makings of a rifle
with both players wanting to be the alpha. Throw into the mix the age gap and
similar skillsets, ultimately one of them needed to make way��
In the wake
of the trade, the Nets have seen a more impressive turn in results, and a playing
style that has been noted as being �exciting��,
�fun to watch��, �hard to defend�� and �must watch�. Newly acquired players have come straight into the mix
and with instant impact for a team looking to compete, but with a window of
opportunity for years to come.

Ingram has come in and instantly
added to the excitement machine. His capabilities in contributing across the
board was a part of the allure for the gun forward to join the Nets franchise.
His capability and complementary skills with Murray and Markkanen make for potentially
the most exciting trio in the league from an age and progression stand-point.
Ingram has managed 26 points per game, 4 boards and 3 assists � highly impactful
numbers while shooting 49% from the field. MIM is in full effect, and the league
is on notice as they progressively click.

Lively II is the perfect fit for the
Brooklyn Nets. Young and with plenty of growth, Lively has been able to be the
starter for the Nets without issue. He has struck a mentee role under Alex Len
and Cody Zeller, one which has enabled him to grow his game and learn from two
vets of the league. GM Breece has been searching for the next starting center
since the departure of Andre Drummond � �when
Dereck became available, we leapt. We had tracked his college game, and his
starting weeks of the NSL, and were highly impressed. Big fans.� The hope
is that Lively will become a mainstay in Brooklyn and become the pillar of
strength to protect on the defensive end.

Bobby Portis has entered the Brooklyn
Nets having already proven himself in previous campaigns and having had an
excellent start to season 23/24 in Cleveland. A massive carrot in the Austin
Reaves movement, Portis has already begun his Brooklyn career with near double-double
numbers. Swinging between the starting lineup and the bench, Portis is the new
go-to guy, as he has proven he can lead the Power Forward or the Center slots;
providing support on the bench as well. Keeping turnovers low, steals and
blocks to 1 a game, and shooting 46% have added to why the Nets made the move
for him.

Oubre was brought into the lineup as
a supplementary scorer, or primary target if needed. He has only added to his
production and abilities in Brooklyn, linking up with Brooklyn fan-favourite,
Kentavious Caldwell-Pope. Oubre has more to give and his abilities have been
seen instantaneously in the Brooklyn lineup, leading the bench scoring and
causing headaches in the switch. GM Breece is a believer, and moves will be made
to make sure that Oubre returns to the borough, and sees his game grow even
more � hoping to make a dynamic 5 eventually.
Vailije Micic

The final piece of the puzzle was to
bring in a handler. A player who if called upon could lead the guard slot in
the absence of star general Jamal Murray. The Nets found the rookie-vet of all
rookie-vets. Micic has slotted into the team was ease. His inclusion and impact
was stifled, mainly due to acclimation pains, and the assessment of Jevon
Carter. Week 13 however has seen a huge uptake in the impact of Micic. 2 games
into his starters minutes, Micic has been 10 points and 11 assists against the
fiery Cleveland Cavaliers and, 4 points and 7 assists in a hard fought win
against Denver. All the while keeping turnovers to a minimum against Jalen
Brunson, and Stephen Curry.
