The New Jersey Nets finished the 2010-11 season with a 24-58 record.

2009-10 New Jersey Nets Predictions - October 21, 2009

Last year it was Richard Jefferson, this year they sent Vince Carter to Orlando in exchange for Courtney Lee, Rafer Alston and Tony Battie. There is still plenty of talent on this team as the team has high hopes for Lee, Devin Harris, and Brook Lopez. However,...

New Jersey Nets 2008-09 Season Preview - September 21, 2008

The Nets finally began to tear it all down last season in an attempt to build it back up. For the first time since 2000, Jason Kidd will not start at the point position.
