After an oh so disappointing season, a big stir is brewing on the side of Brooklyn. The departure of a big name from the locker room seemed for example already recorded, but is probably even more so after his last incendiary outing on the networks!
A 7th place at the end of the regular season already seemed like a big blunder. However, this one could have been caught up in the event of a good run in the playoffs. Unfortunately for them, quite the opposite happened. Not helped by a completely out of phase Kevin Durant, the Nets left the postseason in the first round on a scathing sweep against the Celtics.
Even seeing their executioners perform in the Finals, it’s impossible for Steve Nash’s men to find excuses at the moment. Instead, a major roster review is set to take place in Brooklyn, with several players likely to pack up this summer. This should especially be the case for a free agent in the making, whose recent words risk condemning him anyway.
Blake Griffin drops a big tackle on the Nets
Filled with veteran contracts, the Nets roster will see several of them end in the next few days. Andre Drummond, LaMarcus Aldridge, Goran Dragic, James Johnson… All could bounce away from New York next season. For Blake Griffin, it already seemed safe in view of its previous reportsbut even more after his bit of humor delivered in a recent live Instagram with Bruce Brown!

I’ve been preparing for the new season since March
More or less shelved from that date, BG was still entitled to a few entries here and there, especially at the end of the series against Boston. It would seem, however, that he dropped the team as soon as he fell back in the rotation, and that he was only waiting for one thing: to be able to quickly join another team.
After a season spent in the shadows, and an even more delicate end to the year, it will however be difficult for him to find a nice base. At 33, and after some serious knee injuries, the former All-Star no longer has the rating he enjoyed a few years ago in the league. However, he still hopes to be part of an ambitious project, and has already done so a beautiful call from the foot to a cador from the West.
Blake Griffin definitely has nothing to do with political correctness, and no longer hesitates to attack the Nets for his management of the last few months. Not sure if this is the best way to use to find a new employer!
