They did, dear readers; they did. 🏀 ⚫️⚪️ #NetsWorld

Nets 3-0 in this preseason! Championship incoming? #TooGoodForThisLeague 🏀 ⚫️⚪️ #NetsWorld #BrooklynNets #NetsSky #NBA #NBASky #NBAPreseason

Man, Nelson is so active on the offensive glass! Also a couple of nice sequences of team defense by this lineup, including forcing one shot-clock violation. 👏 On the downside, Saraf kind of looks afraid to shoot, especially from deep. 🏀 ⚫️⚪️ #NetsWorld #BrooklynNets #NetsSky #NBA #NBASky #NBAPreseason

Minott, Wolf, and Nelson are a fun reserve front line. 🏀 ⚫️⚪️ #NetsWorld #BrooklynNets #NetsSky #NBA #NBASky #NBAPreseason

Nice box out, rebound and putback by Nelson!! Followed by a Josh layup 💪🏽 🏀 ⚫️⚪️ #NetsWorld #BrooklynNets #NetsSky #NBA #NBASky #NBAPreseason #GrantNelson #JoshMinott

I’ve noticed Wolf doing a lot of positive little things on the court in his minutes, not all of which will show up in the box score. 🏀 ⚫️⚪️ #NetsWorld #BrooklynNets #NetsSky #NBA #NBASky #NBAPreseason #DannyWolf

Grant really heaves his long jumpers 🏀 ⚫️⚪️ #NetsWorld #BrooklynNets #NetsSky #NBA #NBASky #NBAPreseason

Dakota Durant sighting 🚨 🏀 ⚫️⚪️ #NetsWorld #BrooklynNets #NetsSky #NBA #NBASky #NBAPreseason #DakotaDurant #GrantNelson

The Nets have taken control of this game for the time being. Can they hold on to it? 🏀 ⚫️⚪️ #NetsWorld #BrooklynNets #NetsSky #NBA #NBASky #NBAPreseason

Fair play to these Washington announcers; they’ve been quite positive and respectful in their discussion of the Nets players 🤝 🏀 ⚫️⚪️ #NetsWorld #BrooklynNets #NetsSky #NBA #NBASky #NBAPreseason

Chaney with another athletic dunk!! 🏀 ⚫️⚪️ #NetsWorld #BrooklynNets #NetsSky #NBA #NBASky #NBAPreseason #ChaneyJohnson

Brooklyn’s doing a LOT wrong on D and the game is still really close. Kind of crazy. 🏀 ⚫️⚪️ #NetsWorld #BrooklynNets #NetsSky #NBA #NBASky #NBAPreseason

That’s not fully fair because Day is putting numbers up across his stat line, but Sarr and Ayton have bullied Sharpe on the boards tonight. 🏀 ⚫️⚪️ #NetsWorld #BrooklynNets #NetsSky #NBA #NBASky #NBAPreseason #DayRonSharpe

DayDay having a brutal night. Not a great sign, honestly. 🏀 ⚫️⚪️ #NetsWorld #BrooklynNets #NetsSky #NBA #NBASky #NBAPreseason

Have the Wizards reached 100 uncontested dunks against us yet? Because it certainly feels like they have…. 🏀 ⚫️⚪️ #NetsWorld #BrooklynNets #NetsSky #NBA #NBASky #NBAPreseason

Our transition defense and paint defense have been SHREDDED in this first half, but we lead by one. 🏀 ⚫️⚪️ #NetsWorld #BrooklynNets #NetsSky #NBA #NBASky #NBAPreseason

So far Porter, Randle, Traore, and Ellis have looked strong. The rest? Not so much. 🏀 ⚫️⚪️ #NetsWorld #BrooklynNets #NetsSky #NBA #NBASky #NBAPreseason #KeonEllis #MichaelPorterJr #JuliusRandle #NolanTraore

When our shots are dropping, we’re going to look good. But will we play good enough transition defense to win our share of games? 🏀 ⚫️⚪️ #NetsWorld #BrooklynNets #NetsSky #NBA #NBASky #NBAPreseason

Randle’s going to put up a lot of assists for us just running the offense and keeping his head up. 🏀 ⚫️⚪️ #NetsWorld #BrooklynNets #NetsSky #NBA #NBASky #NBAPreseason #JuliusRandle

K3on 3llis!!! And a BIG swat by DayDay! 🚫 🏀 ⚫️⚪️ #NetsWorld #BrooklynNets #NetsSky #NBA #NBASky #NBAPreseason #KeonEllis #DayRonSharpe
