For Nets, LaMarcus Aldridge has become essential personnel
Photo by Nathaniel S. Butler/NBAE via LaMarcus Aldridge is not a luxury. He is a necessity, essential personnel. As Alex Schiffer writes Monday, LMA (or LA, your preference) has gone from a feel-good story in August to an “X-factor” in November as the Nets re-jigger things to compensate for the absence of Kyrie Irving, injury and illness. He’s made over $200 million in his career. He’s a seven-time All-Star. He’s already a candidate for the Hall of Fame. Yet, he returned to the Nets in September, in part to prove that he still has the desire to win a title...

Despite Saturday’s missteps, they have looked better. In fact, the Nets have moved into the top...

Nets giving Kyrie Irving his ‘space’ but there’s no news on his return
Photo by Julio Aguilar/ As Brian Lewis reports Saturday, there’s nothing new with Kyrie Irving’s situation, There’s no indication he’ll get vaccinated and the emergence of new variant, called Omicron, likely means more restrictions down the road than a lifting of New York’s mandate on local pro athletes. Still, across the board, the Nets from co-owners Joe and Clara Wu Tsai to teammate and fellow Jerseyan DeAndre’ Bembry are not putting pressure on their superstar guard, but rather giving him space.
