After a solid start, the NBA playoffs have taken a turn for the worst for Brooklyn Nets fans when it comes to a hate-watching perspective. The New York Knicks, yes, those New York Knicks are on their way to the NBA Finals. While whoever comes out of the West will surely be favored over New York, they\u2019re on top of the world right now, and will stay up for another week and a half at the very least.<\/p>\n
So, if need something to look away toward, you\u2019re in the right place. Our Nets are still on vacation with Summer League still a ways away. Here\u2019s what everyone is up to.<\/p>\n
Michael Porter Jr. posted a variety of photos in Paris last week, but more recently shared a slideshow featuring several of his teammates. He, Egor D\u00ebmin, Danny Wolf, Drake Powell and Ben Saraf set sail together, surely looking to land something tastier than what you\u2019d pull in closer to home.<\/p>\n
If last year\u2019s Nets unit can hang their hat on anything, it\u2019s locker room vibes. Veterans and young players alike often raved about the team\u2019s chemistry and camaraderie. Their offseason activities already indicated that wasn\u2019t just fluff for the media.<\/p>\n
That, or they just want to follow in the footsteps as former Net Ben Simmons. Yes, this is a real fishing team, that he\u2019s really on, that won this real tournament.<\/p>\n
D\u00ebmin\u2019s also been accessible of late on X (formerly Twitter). He\u2019s responded to a handful of posts on there of the past few days, assumedly joking around with NBA fans more than anything. One Shai Gilgeous-Alexander stan account attempted to call out D\u00ebmin for using an GIF on Instagram featuring the MVP, though he quickly diminished it as irrelevant.<\/p>\n
A few days before that, he confirmed he\u2019s working on growing out a stache. Riveting stuff, right?<\/p>\n
In an undoubtedly more impactful endeavor, D\u00ebmin also recently got out to a Brooklyn Basketball clinic to spend some time with younger fans.<\/p>\n
Repping the New York Liberty<\/p>\n
Neither Noah Clowney nor Day\u2019Ron Sharpe posted about their latest trip back to the Barclays Center, but they were there over the weekend supporting the New York Liberty. Josh Minott also joined them.<\/p>\n
