Nets need their shooters to step up in playoff push
The numbers, as Greg Logan notes Friday, are not good. The Nets two three-point specialists — Joe Harris and Allen Crabbe— have gone cold. In the past seven games, Harris has been held to 10-for-29 shooting from three-point range (34.5 percent), including five games with one made three-pointer, and Crabbe has been held to 11-for-36 shooting from deep (30.6 percent), with four games of one or fewer makes. In those same seven games, D’Angelo Russell, who leads the team in three pointers made, is shooting 27.5 percent. The Nets offense, so much of which is predicated on perimeter...

Nets barely escape ugly battle in Atlanta, 114-112
It wasn’t pretty. In fact it was near torturous, but they got it done with a final score of 114-112, Saturday night at Atlanta. The Nets shot 38 percent from the floor and missed 21 free throws in one of the most important games of the season. But the only thing that matters is that they got the win. Joe Harris hit one-of-two free throws and gave the Nets a two-point lead with 16 seconds left. It was Brooklyn’s 21st miss of the night on 54 attempts — the most they’ve attempted in over 10 years and the most they’ve attempted on the road since 1996! They failed to make Atlanta pay...

Joe Harris with his season goal in sight
Joe Harris’ season goal wasn’t about All Star Weekend. Winning the three-point shootout was very, very nice (and Harris has been amazed by questions about whether he really wanted to win.) No, Joe Harris wants to lead the NBA in three point shooting ... for the season. As Brian Lewis reports Friday, this is what the Nets shooting guard wants. It’s his “shtick.” “It would mean a lot, just because that’s sort of my shtick,” Harris told The Post. “That’s what I do. In baseball if you’re the batting champion, it’s essentially like that. This is why I’m in the NBA,...

Joe Harris and Sarah Kustok talk about happiness, among other things
Zach Lowe’s podcast with Joe Harris and Sarah Kustok was a lot about happiness. Lowe intimated that Kustok may be too happy. Harris admitted that people criticized him for not smiling during the three-point contest on All Star Weekend or being overtly happy after he won it. But most of the “happy talk” was about the team, the Nets have created a rare space for players to be positive about themselves and the organization. And yes, if you were playing the “culture” and “character” drinking game, you’d have been hospitalized after listening to the hour and 10 minute joint...

Joe Harris is (finally) getting some love
Shaquille O’Neal admitted he didn’t even know who he was. The NBA almost didn’t invite him to the three-point contest, despite him having the second-best three-point percentage entering the All-Star Break with Meet Joe Harris, well-known if you watch the Brooklyn Nets, and a no-name if you don’t.

FILM STUDY: The Secret to D’Angelo Russell’s Game
Like a basketball court, there are nooks and crannies within D’Angelo Russell’s game for the Brooklyn Nets. It starts from the perimeter, where his through-the-legs dribble is nearly flawless as he operates the Brooklyn offense, flashing his keen eye around the hardwood for someone like Joe Harris coming off of a pin-down screen from Jarrett Allen. Or where his herky-jerk step back rainbow jumper is launched and goes perfectly through the basket, nearly not making a sound. It finishes at the rim – sometimes, if almost not enough – where Russell will use an array of crafty finishes...
