For Joe Harris and Garrett Temple, bringing water to Africa is a priority
Clay Cook Photography for Water Boys Back in the summer, Joe Harris got a lot of attention for his world travel. He was in China in both September and October, first for the FIBA World Cup, then the NBA China Games. But they weren’t the only stops on his itinerary. He spent time in Africa as well, Tanzania to be specific, on a mission beyond basketball ... bringing clean water to the continent. It didn’t get the attention his trips to China got but for Harris, the stop in Kilimanjaro was at least as rewarding. Harris is part of Hoops2O Hoops, aka “The Water Boys,” founded by...

Kenny Atkinson: Spying scandal? Not in the NBA. It’s all legal!
Photo by Al Bello/ Different sports have different rules and what’s illegal —indeed a scandal— in one is common in another. So the baseball sign-stealing scandal that’s engulfed multiple teams in the MLB has been met with shrugs in the NBA. Sign stealing? Happens all the time, as Kenny Atkinson explained to Stefan Bondy. Nets coach Kenny Atkinson said there’s three layers of sign stealing in the NBA and they’re all legal. Advanced scouts — who spy the opposition during games days before the matchup against his team — will sit behind the bench and try to pick up plays....

Kevin Durant’s status remains the same: Not this year
Noah K. Murray-USA TODAY Sports As Brian Lewis reports Sunday morning, the Nets went to extraordinary means Saturday to keep Kevin Durant’s progress a secret...

Durant has worked out before games before, but it’s usually at HSS Training Center, or on the small practice court at Barclays. Today the #Nets closed off the bowl & let him go on the main court.

Jarrett Allen says he and Kyrie Irving spoke, clarifies there’s “no bad blood”
Photo by Nathaniel S. Butler/NBAE via After Wednesday’s loss to the Philadelphia 76ers, Kyrie Irving spoke about how the Nets need “one or two more pieces” to contend for a championship. In the quote, he named most of the Nets players but not Jarrett Allen and Joe Harris, both who have been around since the beginning of the Markinson era. “Collectively I feel we have great pieces, but it’s pretty glaring that we need more piece, two more pieces that will complement myself, KD, DJ (DeAndre Jordan), GT (Garrett Temple), Spencer (Dinwiddie), Caris (LeVert) and we’ll see how...

Kyrie Irving offers explanation of his comments, says his only purpose was to improve the team
Photo by Matteo Marchi/ Call it an explanation, a reversal, an apology —whatever you like— but Kyrie Irving laid out the rationale behind his post-games comments Wednesday, comments that appeared to diss some teammates and suggest the Nets had “glaring,” “transparent” issues that were holding them back from championship contention. Irving told reporters that he had explained to his team what he meant by the comments and didn’t mean to single anybody out by listing core players. And he admitted that yes, he probably should have/could have added a few more names to his...
