When it came to Kyrie Irving forcing his way out of Brooklyn, the now former Net said he wanted to be somewhere he felt “celebrated” rather than “tolerated.” Irving met with the media Tuesday for the first time since being traded to the Mavericks on Sunday. “I just know I wanna…
Mayor Eric Adams had a bit of trash talk for Kyrie Irving Monday morning following news that the talented but oft-troubled player will be traded from the Brooklyn Nets to the Dallas Mavericks. During an interview with morning host Pat Kiernan on NY1, Adams was asked to envision City Hall…
BOSTON — Styles make fights — but so does size. And the undersized Nets were never in this one, battered around and beaten up 139-96 by the Celtics on Wednesday night. How bad was it? Boston dominated so thoroughly, from wire-to-wire that the sellout crowd of 19,156 at TD Garden…
SAN FRANCISCO — When Kevin Durant sprained his right MCL two weeks ago, Kyrie Irving was deferring and the Nets were struggling. Now, Irving is leading. That doesn’t mean chucking up wild shots or playing hero-ball. It does mean being fully engaged, putting his body on the line for his…
SALT LAKE CITY — Kyrie Irving kept up the red-hot form he found Thursday against the Suns — and he showed the Nets actually can win a game without Kevin Durant. Irving poured in a game-high 48 points and the Nets pulled out a 117-106 victory over the Jazz before…

Kevin Durant, off to his most prolific season since his last scoring title in 2014, is being serenaded with MVP chants. The Nets star is succeeding despite an anomaly in his shooting: He has the best field-goal percentage of his career (.548), but the worst 3-point percentage (.346) since his…
INDIANAPOLIS — Kevin Durant will head into the Nets’ game against the Pacers on Friday off an uncharacteristically quiet game, in which he scored just 12 points Wednesday in Toronto.
