If the demo's any indication, it just means 2k players will now listen to every instrumental anybody on Jay's team laced in the past 2 years, so instead of providing a varied soundtrack that covered a lot of different genres, you get treated to the Def Jam greatest hits. If you're not a Jay-Z fan, you better get that mute button ready.

I'm not a Nets fan, nor do I expect myself to become one, but I might catch a game or two, now that I'm no longer a Knicks fan or a fan of any other team.



to tell the truth... this will might get me one day. i hate myself, but somehow i start to like the brooklyn nets

i will watch this for sure
im bout dat action boss

The Nets series will tip off on Oct. 16.


Bump reminder! It'll be shown after the Preseason game with the Celtics, which will also be on NBA TV.

Same thing I was thinking lol.

I think so, but you know when that TV makeup comes off, she's not looking that great haha.

I think you have to, I mean she was a teenage top 5 for me and she still has that half annoying yet get you going voice that I'd love to hear and it's not like she's nasty or anything now.

I'm saying yes. Sue me keyboard dime piece super players lol.

I thought it was Michael Williams, Brooklyn native, Boardwalk Empire/Chalky ...you see him right off the bat and at the end...his voice sounds a little lower on the narration, but the whole time I was thinking it was him...

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Michael_K._Williams

They did a great job with the introductory episode...got me amped...They brought a lot of history as well as the community into the relevance of who the Nets are and what they are representing...Excellent job on showing where the Nets are and where they are headed and what we want to become...very signifcant...

Kind of disappointed with the first episode. They really didn't show much behind the scenes at all. I expected a balance between an intro to Brooklyn and some NJ Nets history, but they just basically made fun of NJ. I'd like to see the players personalities behind the scenes in the upcoming episodes.

Its called an introduction...I'm sure we'll get to see plenty of the Nets players and organization in the upcoming episodes...

I agree, there had to be a slower "foundation" episode to get things started. We've been following the Nets super closely over the past 6 months with free agency, the resigning of Deron, the opening of the Barclays, etc. so it was all things we already knew and probably didn't care much for to hear again.

The upcoming episodes will be much better. I can't wait to hear more of what Avery is preaching, candid interviews, locker room chatter, drama off the court, and so on. That's the fun stuff!
