Damn, I don’t even know how to process losing our homegrown guys.

I’m really going to miss the Afro Samurai.

Well. Still in shell shock that we actually pulled this off despite the cloud hanging over the organization for all this time. Wish them luck on their new teams.

Jarrett Allen might have been my favorite Net on the team, and it's gonna pain me to see him kill it in Cleveland. Absolute best of luck to him.

Good luck to Caris and Kurucs too, they've got talent, hope they find a niche somewhere.

I would really like to thank these guys for helping us build this franchise. My Dad used to say "Leave the place better than what it was when you got there." And that's what these guys did.

I wish them well and will always remain fans of theirs. I hope they continue on their successful careers for a long time.

LeVert was my fav Net since he was drafted. Will be weird seeing him in another uniform :(

Also loved the fro and always felt like ROdi could be a solid role player some day. Wish them the best in their next teams/rest of their career.

The 18/19 Nets was the most FUN Brooklyn Nets team I've followed. They had everything you wanted except being superstars: heart, grit, hardworking, like-ability, embraced the Brooklyn community.

Weird to feel sad and really happy at the same time.

Those days were fun times, we were always the underdog and made every game a fight.

Love these guys. It sucks that this roster got literally 2 games at full strength before Dinwiddie got hurt. We crushed both teams too.

Definitely will root for these guys. LeVert and Allen were late 1sts that helped turn our franchise around. Both guys accepted any role asked of them. Improved every single year. Always played hard. Bittersweet losing them. LeVert will get a feature role on a playoff team. JA will make himself a core piece for a nice young Cleveland team.

I feel the same except Caris was my favorite. Coincidentally, he’s going back to the team that actually drafted him before they traded his rights to us (for Thad Young IIRC).

I thought about getting his a few times. TBH, I still might get it with the discounts inevitably coming.

I've been a medium-long Nets fan. It's now officially twenty years, as of the New Year.

Definitely one of the hardest things to do is to learn about our players, sometimes to fall in love so to speak, then to bitterly say goodbye. This process fluffing SUCKS.

These were MY BOYS, and we we were going to change the world. :S

Is cleveland as bad a situation for Jarrett to land in as I'm imagining? That's my guy. He deserves to OWN a starting position.

Gonna miss these guys. they helped change the culture of this team from a laughing stock to the team every star wanted to join. He isnt here either, but props to kenny and what he did to help grow those guys.

What a long road... i went from being hated for wanting to deal thad for the pick that became levert to being a levert apologist to being a levert hater.

Allen i wanted to trade up for. loved the dude. his biggest supporter. loved eveyrthing he brought. died inside when some called to bench him for claxton. glad he showed up this year before being dealt. sucks i spent so much time arguing against him starting before he cemented it...hope he gets paid.

Really tough to lose these guys.

Levert was my favorite Nets for sure. I've had his jersey for years. The 18-19 Nets with him and Russell were one of my favorite teams of all time.

Its different when your team drafts a player and you see him grow up. Thats what we had with Caris. My favorite memory was when I bought courtside seats and saw him make a game winner over the Knicks. It was epic. The Knicks fan sitting next to me was so tight.

Allen was another one of my favorites. We saw him grow up and become a top Center in the NBA. Was looking great this year.

Kurucs we saw less off but I still think he can be a rotation piece on the right team. He had a great rookie year.

Wishing my guys the best in Clevleand. I hope they make the playoffs.

Will def be checking out some Cavs games this year.

True lol. I forgot the details.

Indiana is a great situation for Caris. I'm sure they make the playoffs.

Allen and Prince can def help Cleveland too.
