Part 1 - Crossover Episode with Locked On Lakers Sep 15, 2021

Show notes

In Part 1 of 2, Doug Norrie talks to Andy and Brian Kamenetzky of the Locked On Lakers podcast about this upcoming season.

Is Nic Claxton the odd man out in the Nets frontcourt? Sep 10, 2021

Show notes

With the Nets adding Paul Millsap and LaMarcus Aldridge to their frontcourt, the Locked On Nets guys take a look at how that could potentially affect the minutes for Nic Claxton and Day'Ron Sharpe. Specifically, when it comes to Claxton, it is hard to see a clear path for him to get solid minutes especially early in the season with less opportunity to go around. Even with DeAndre Jordan out of the mix, the frontcourt is almost overloaded with bigs at this point. Adam Armbrecht and Doug Norrie take a look at the situation and what it will mean for the younger guys.

Paul Millsap signed and LaMarcus Aldridge returning, the Nets capping off a stunning offseason. Sep 07, 2021

Show notes

The Nets capped off an excellent offseason by making a couple of Labor Day weekend moves in addition to the DeAndre Jordan trade. For starters, they signed Paul Millsap to a veteran minimum contract. It is a fantastic depth-builder in the front court where Millsap will bring veteran experience, the ability to score and stretch the floor as well. He is an excellent defender as well. Plus, they brought back LaMarcus Aldridge after he was medically cleared to once again play basketball. The Nets went from being a little thin at the four and five to loaded with veteran experience and depth.

Nets trade away DeAndre Jordan, and get even deeper in the front court Sep 06, 2021

Show notes

The Nets were finally able to trade away DeAndre Jordan, clearing that contract off of their books and saving $47 million in luxury tax as well. They sent him, cash considerations, and a bunch of second-round picks to the Detroit Pistons for Jahlil Okafor and Sekou Dombouya. It was an interesting trade all things considered and can't be seen as anything else but another massive win for Sean Marks and company. Clearing out Jordan and the money paved the way for LaMarcus Aldridge to sign with the Nets and they brought in Paul Millsap as well. The guys will get to those two signings on tomorrow's podcast.

Show notes

Adam hops on for an emergency pod as the Brooklyn Nets are set to sign Paul Milsap! Adam discusses the value the 4-time all-star brings to Brooklyn, including his consistency on both ends of the floor.

He also looks at the current roster and how this move helps alleviate the pressure on Blake Griffin to provide a repeat performance from last year.

With more rumors swirling, Adam also highlights how signing Paul Milsap does not preclude Brooklyn from pursuing more veteran talent like LMA who has recently received medical clearance to return to the NBA.

Show notes

Doug Norrie sits down with Josh Lloyd of Locked On Fantasy and Locked On NBA to talk about the upcoming season and what to expect out of the Nets on a fantasy level. In some ways, the answers are obvious because the Nets have the Big 3 of Kevin Durant, James Harden, and Kyrie Irving. But how will the team manage them throughout the season and what should we expect from the role players? It is a wide-ranging conversation that dives deep into the team, the rotations and how Brooklyn will (or will not) manage minutes.
