The Brooklyn Nets: A Lolcow in Three Acts
Вставка
- Опубліковано 7 кві 2017
- Lolcow (n) - A person or group of people laughed at for actions that they take, despite not trying to be funny. They may try to take themselves seriously, but they are often "milked" for laughs with or without their knowledge.
The Nets are one of the most hopeless organizations in all of basketball today. Currently boasting one of the worst records in the NBA this year and a total lack of current talent and future prospects, the Nets have next to no hope of getting themselves out of this predicament in the short term future. The only way to truly understand why the Nets are in this situation is to trace these missteps back to the beginning. In this case, back to the early part of this decade, when the Nets were also in the league's gutter. Witness the great Bell curve that is the Mikhail Prokhorov-owned Nets.
NOTE: I tried a different approach with this video. I shot for more of a "cinematic narrative" style that is probably ridiculously over-the-top. Feel the tragedy and the triumph! Hope you enjoy, though.

I need a part 2 but for KD and Kyrie
It's Revisiting, in this case, and you're absolutely right
And simmons 😂
Same here!
It took 5 Years but the UrinatingTree prophecy is fulfilled once more! The Nets who HAD KD Kyrie and Harden and a opportunity to have the dynasty of a century and a multitude of championships now have none! They are right back where they started some franchises never learn! Congratulations Tree you did it again!
Please make a part 2 we need it.
And their main player can't shoot
No finals appearances no ECF appearances just a giant waste of time
@@JM-fr5ge probably the worst part about it for the fans no actual point and nothing accomplished
Oh yeah remember that center you had Nets? He won a championship with Milwaukee. And he still leads your franchise in scoring.
At least this time they bothered to get draft picks in return
if I ran an NBA team I would hire Billy King as a consultant, he would call other teams about trades and then we would do the exact opposite of what he says.
He would just keep increasing the offers on trades until he got the other guy to accept.
UrinatingTree just like me in 2k17
I HATE BILLY KING go 76ers
he killed them we would have had more finals if he did not get rid of A.I.
SWAG PIG imagine prime ai with Tobias Harris embid and Simmons
Chalcolate Fox I mean you could say that with every team except the Hornets
"if Boston wins a championship they should build a statue of Billy King"
Hah gold
@The Hawk lmfao over the top much? Ask Cleveland fans if they feel like they won that trade. It's basically become Kyrie for Sexton. Wow what a haul for a top 3 point guard. The players we drafted with the Brooklyn picks are 2nd and 3rd year players for fucks sake. They're still developing. Brown and Tatum carried the Celtics to the ECF game 7. This past season with Hayward and Irving back created a log jam of start-worthy players that had to adjust to different roles and that's very difficult on such a talented team. They had another year to develop this season and I'm sure, likely returned to their starting roles, Brown and Tatum will take another big leap forward and become even more dynamic.
Shane Lawler ok so will rosier replace Irving now?
@@theartoonnerdologist411 huh? Rozier ain't covering for shit next year bruh. He's longgg gone to Pheonix most likely on a Max or close to it, which he won't deserve and will become an albatross once he's exposed as a tyreke evans. Irving is probably signing the max in the Bean this offseason. dude is trying to leverage Bkn. With Rozier and Morris out, the locker room nonsense will be over with, we'll probably trade for AD with a package around Brown(probably/Tatum with picks and role players thrown in. Horford and opt in/out to restructure his contract to make room in the cap (reports say he's willing too) and Hayward (please God) will regain full form next season. That's Kryie, AD, Tatum, Horford, and maybe Smart or a spot/shoot pick up in FA or Trade. Absolutely Filthy starting 5. That my prediction/hope anyway.
@The Hawk in in anyones mind they could say the Cavs won the Kyrie trade is hilarious on so many various levels, it's to late St night to list them all. If you're still lingering this thread in the morning , I'd be happy to list them all 1through 1000 for you. G'night
The Brooklyn Nets:
Pro Basketball's Definition of Insanity
Congrats Nets!
You have made the Knicks an even bigger shitshow.
You got KD & Kyrie to come to Brooklyn.
Too Bad D-Lo’s walking though.
February 2023: Oh Brother. Things have gotten ugly. The Knicks have a better future than the Nets.
It was gonna happen. The Knicks have zero direction
So did the Raptors, Clippers, Mavericks, Pelicans and even the 76ers. All you terrible teams are all getting revived! Hell Denver is a good team. The BUCKS are good team. The Magic made a playoff run. Lakers finally restored themselves to their former glory. Raptors won a god damn championship. But the Knicks? Just enjoy sitting next to the Suns, Hornets and Kings where we'll give you a pat on the head if you manage to at least get 30 wins. I think I have a participation trophy laying around here somewhere I can give you. At least that Kristaps guy is load off your roster. It's not like he put on 20 pounds of pure muscle, got worked with by a legendary player and will become a future hall of famer right?.... right? oh shit....
@@DyingToLive310 The Kings aren't a bad team. If anything the Hornets, Knicks, Suns, Cavaliers, and Bulls are the trash teams.
@@buffvegito2751 but the cavs have a recent championship and four straight conference titles, we can be trash for lil while
@@buffvegito2751 Don't hang to the 90's nostalgia. Almost everyone who born during that time is legally allowed to drink nowadays. Knicks IS AS BAD as them
Now that Kyrie and KD are gone, can you please make a part two to this
It took 2 years but the UrinatingTree Jinx is in full effect. The Nets now have Kyrie and KD. Conglatutations Tree you did it again!
The Nonsensical One well I don’t know if the Knicks can ever be good even if UrinatingTree jinxed them in another video.
He was right about the Knicks tho😂
Joshua Jung well as of recently yes it does
Chris McKee can we get one example please?
Nonso Omezi they are ok not gonna win anything
Turns out Brook did make it out of there. He also won a championship with the Bucks, winning the injury war of attrition against his former team. Happy endings.
Hey brook good job heres a thumbs up by the way makail got his comeuppance for wasting you hes now got 30 sactions on him and is in hiding currently in his Brooklyn home
If only Devin Harris won one too
Revisiting: The Brooklyn Nets
Sean Marks is a dark warlock
How about they do something not just get names
theyre still shit just shit with big names
There shit
Eh, let's wait until KD and Kyrie are playing together
1st rounders gave up for 35 year olds turned into:
Jaylen Brown
Jayson Tatum
Collin Sexton
So they basically got 35 year old men in exchange for Damian Lillard, Enes Kanter, Draymond Green, James Young, Kelly Oubre, Shane Larkin, Robert Sacre, Gorgui Dieng, Cheick Diallo, Markelle Fultz, Frank Jackson, Jaylen Brown, Jayson Tatum, and Collin Sexton. God they fucked up
That's almost like an entire team in its own right there!
Robert Sacre 😂
and then the nets rebuilt faster than all of them
@@the-w-omen9179 and haven’t done anything since.
What have you done during this time
After trading KD and Kyrie, the Nets have remade the hit movie “The LOLCOW in three acts”
BTW, Gerald Wallace was essentially traded for Damian Lillard. Think about that for a second..
Ah, you covered it. LOL.
Blazer fan here. I liked Wallace when he played for us.....but I LOVE Lillard!
Vladpryde I'll take Lillard any day of the week...DAME TIME!!!
The blazers themselves have been a lol cow contender since their title for 40 years now...with draft busts injurirs drug problems signing thugs and never winning
Asmosis Jones yep pretty much
For some reason, this video is showing up on my feed today. It’s like history has repeated or something. 🤣🤣🤣
How many people came back to this video after KD and Kyrie got traded out of Brooklyn? LolNets.
And now we need a sequel for this.
Agreed! A BIG sequel like "Godfather Part 2"!!!😂😂😂😂!
I think we got it today. Not Tree has to make the video.
Okay, we now officially need a sequel.
I believe we need a 4th act
"THE FUTURE IS SURE TO BE BRIGHT- wait they get dick stomped by the Miami Heat." Makes me laugh every time.
And Now thanks to Houston, The Nets got Harden for 4 First Round picks & 4 First Round pick swaps . Deja vu all over again 😂😂
And Kyrie is unleashing his inner Kanye. It's like Prokhorov never left at all...
Do you know the definition of insanity...
It is happening. At least they get a low first this year and in 2027 because they let Harden walk. They got one year of their men, and it got them nothing, plus Ben Simmons. As a Celtics fan, I just hope Houston gets good so they can laugh just as hard as we did.
They just got swept with arguably the most talented offensive duo of all time
Karma
and now they're gone
all that's left is a guy with four great games
and Ben Simmons
Damn I knew the Nets completely fucked themselves over, but to the magnitude of losing out on Damian Lillard, Enes Kanter, Draymond Green, and potentially Markelle Fultz or Lonzo Ball is a nightmare.
And Alec Hines... and Derrick Favors... and several other draft picks...
Alec Hines? Who the fuck is he even?!
Shit I meant Alec Burks. Idk why the fuck I said Hines.
Can add Jaylen Brown and Jayson Tatum to that list now. Also the cavaliers pick this Spring that they got from Boston for Kyrie Irving.
@@Briggie and turn up to be colin sexton, this one man just fucked up entire future of a franchise lmao
Brook Lopez got a ring now, thank you Billy King.
Who’s here after the nets made the playoffs for the first time in 4 years
Now they're about to give up on the guys that got them there so they can turn to Kyrie Irving and enjoy 5 months of success before he gives up on them...
look at the upload date and compared it to yours. please don't be an idiot
@@Am-Not-Jarvis lmaoo this is funny
@@Rohan_Mehta hilarious
Well, this has aged tremendously well.
How long ago did they stop being known as the New York Nets?
April 26, 2012
Actually, that was _all the way back in 1977_. You're probably thinking of the New *Jersey* Nets, not the New York Nets.
Holy shit, I didn't even know about that! I was just making fun of New Jersey.
It's true, though. In fact, that was what they were mainly known by back in their ABA days, save for their opening season as the New Jersey Americans...
Larry Bundy Jr holy shit I watch you. You watch Urinating Tree?
So...who's back here after both KD and Kyrie fucked off from this team?
The Curse of Billy King is alive once again. Another year, another year with no first round draft pick when they need it.
Ironically, where one of their stars went this time? The 76ers!
Well, well, well. Someone told me that the Nets was gonna go after KD, Kyrie, and Kawhi last season. I called him a madman. Turns out he was a prophet.
Well, not Kawhi, but two out of three ain't bad.
This does not mean he isn't a madman.
We need a updated version
The LolNets never ends. First Kylie and now KD leaving
We need a part 2 my guy😂
Who else is here in 2023 when the Nets got swept by the Sixers in the first round of the playoffs?
BTW, that now makes 10 straight playoff games lost for the Brooklyn Nets
As a celtics fan this was truly the nbas Hershel Walker trade
You would think getting 2 hall of gamer worthy pmayers in pierce and kg would at least make the deal worth it for 1 year but him and terry had career lows that season and both looked like they should of retired and pierce was awful....and then ditched the team same for terry where there helped their new teams win playoff series ..what a fucking waste ...kg was literally averaging 6 and 5 with the nets..like wtf..
No... No it isn’t. The Cowboys made a dynasty with that trade. Boston hasn’t done shit since then.
@@864pescador But they're in a pretty fine position to win pretty soon.
And yet the Nets are the gonna be the better team going forward
The Hawk the weird part is they made good picks with them lol. Kyrie is just a cancer
Danica Patrick: NASCAR's Lolcow Driver
He acutally did a lowcow video NASCAR in general so there's no need for it
I tried to make a video, but it kept crashing.
UrinatingTree LMFAO
💀💀
Darian Gilliam or Ricky Stenhouse?
We've gotta see a sequel to this detailing the KD/Kyrie/Harden saga. Somehow the sequel manages to surpass the original in terms of absolute craziness and reputation destruction.
I just want to thanks Billy King for helping us get the first pick of the draft this year
The Trade keeps on giving... for Boston.
David khan was worse...he deserve his own lolcow video...johnny Flynn ahead of Steph curry...hahhahahahaha
This needs to be updated aaaasap
Your Brook Lopez wish was granted today, bless
A great piece for my Bucks
They got D'Angelo Russell for him. Win.
Lopez then goes to MKE, is part of a juggernaut. Win.
IT JUST KEEPS HAPPENING!!
The nets coulda had
Damian Liliard
Draymond Green
Markelle fultz
Jaylen Brown
Brook lopez
All on the same team. Let that sink.
Ziamangry and John Wall
Ziamangry I'm crying
The nets also could have kept Derrick Favors
Ziamangry @
Jason Tatum****
Please do the Orlando Magic. We've been a failure since Dwight Howard left
Yes, please, my man. I mean, at least the Phoenix Suns still have young players like Devin Booker and Marquese Chriss that can grow into potential All-Stars moving forward. I honestly don't know who in Orlando can be exactly that anymore!
@Crazy Luigi I still can't believe we traded Oladipo for Ibaka just to trade Ibaka away before the season even ended. Lost Oladipo for nothing. ORLANDO FIRE ROB HENNIGAN!
KevlarKev Magic for sure lol.
KevlarKev IKR like what the fuck are they even doing. I miss the days of Shaq and Penny. Now we got fucking Hezonja
Let's trade for Ibaka, then trade him for Terrance Ross and a pick
Back here after Kyrie AND Durant got traded. We need a sequel
A few years later...
Everyone: *ThIS didNT agE weLL*
Just look at the Sacramento Kings Video, You could see a Few Comments of that. LMAO, Kings aren't even good enough to be a 9th Seed in the West
Aged like fine wine. Looking forward to Part 2.
The Nets traded away their entire future Draft Picks and their Depth on the Bench just to get eliminated in the 2nd Round by the Greek Freak and the Bucks 🦌
Even worse, Brook Lopez finally got his championship.
Might as well move out of Brooklyn at this point. A billion dollar tire fire.
Sean Marks is turning the Nets around as we speak. He shipped off Thaddeus Young's big contract at the draft last year for a first rounder then drafted Caris Levert who's played well. He swung a deal in the second round for Isaiah Whitehead who has also played well. This season he moved Bogdanovic who will be out of his prime by the time Marks digs the team out of King's hole for a first round pick in a deep draft. And he wisely kept Lopez at the deadline and is sticking to his asking price for Lopez. He's doing good things (I'm not a Nets fan btw, I say that as an outside observer of the Nets). Mikhail needs to give him time.
Marks is still facing a steep uphill battle thanks to the sins of Billy King. The Nets could really use a Fultz or Ball in their lineup.
Definitely
No denying that. However, I think if Brooklyn manages to find a talent like Harry Giles III (before his injuries wrecked his time at Duke) that recovers nicely, similar to Skal Labissiere going from Kentucky to Sacramento (only hopefully without as much time spent in the D-League/G-League moving forward), they could be alright.
Marks has put them in good shape for this draft. They have two picks that will be in the 20's. In this draft plenty of talent will be available with those picks.
1 Survivor Well he picked up Mozgov's insane contract. They have to hope D'Angelo develops.
Act 4: Regardless of how much you fuck up, you will never be worse than the Knicks.
Unexpected dark souls music
Watching this just after the KD trade really makes me think about how disastrous that Nets Celtics deal was. The Celtics ended up getting Jaylen Brown & Jayson Tatum with two of those picks. Sure the last one was for Kyrie, but Brown & Tatum are both monsters.
Tree in 2017: "If Boston wins a championship soon, they should just build a statue of Billy King."
Celtics 5 years later: "Noted"
Fuck the Warriors
This video aged like a fine wine
Tree’s got to update this video now with everyone yet again bailing on this Titanic of a franchise.
This needs a sequel
Lmaoo this video is getting recommended to me after they blew it up again 😂
Looks like they're getting Kyrie, Durant, and DeAndre Jordan
look at the upload date and compared it to yours. please don't be an idiot
and 3 more stars
Who's here after Brook Lopez finally won a chip with the bucks
Well well well. It looks like Brooklyn might be starting to emerge from lolcowdom.
I loved loved loved this new setup! The old lighthearted feel was wonderful but there was something about this that just had that streak of professional documentary type vibe. Keep doing what you're doing man! I cant get enough!
Some things never change.
At least they made the playoffs as a sixth seed despite trading away everyone before they were swept by the 76ers.
@@ericradford2142and then got swept by the Sixers
It was as if they were never there lmfao 😂
@ericradford2142 it's as if the spirit of Billy King never left the Brooklyn Nets.
Who’s here after the Nets just won their first round series against the Celtics 4-1?
@Zach Dupont meee as well
And then lose in 7 to the Bucks 🦌
@@englenn806 They will be back next year
I agree with you. Now don’t get me wrong it was still a terrible trade by the Nets, but it only looks better than what it was because the Celtics never won a championship.
LA clippers low cow they only had about 8 winning seasons and I'm a fan :(
After they lose in the playoffs.
Hello fellow Clippers fan. Join me on the bench of disappointment.
spaghetti We'll be good if the major lowcow called the Knicks give us carmelo
Personilay I want my Clippers back in SD but we need a new staduim
Tree, you should do a new video regarding the Nets current situation.
History repeats itself
"They can still attract those marquee free agents, right?
Beep, beep. Yup, they're fucked." LOL
Billy King fucked up again.
Act 4 better be coming soon
Who’s here after Kyrie went the Mavs, and KD went to the Suns?
As a native New Jersian, I love seeing this team get what it deserves. Honestly New Jersey deserves a basketball and football team. MetLife Stadium is in New Jersey and the two teams that play in it are NEW YORK teams!
Bruins Boy yeah, I don't follow hockey a ton though.
Joseph Randisi you don't deserve crap
Melon Lemon I don't, but New Jersey as a whole does. everyone makes jokes about Jersey, and how New York is better, but without New York City New York would be nothing more than Pennsylvania without Philly or Pittsburgh.
Melon Lemon That was quite a comparison
Joseph Randisi Jersey doesn't really deserve much it's kinda trashy over there
As a Nets fan, this makes me cringe and get PTSDs of Billy King...
MJB 123 damn, judging by the profile pic your a fan of the shitty NYC Area Teams...
Welcome to Alshentzylvania yep, the Mets are my only hope
LawndaleLion you read it wrong haha. I meant there are the shitty NYC area teams (nets, mets compared to Yankees, jets, devils) and there are the better ones (Giants, Yankees, Rangers, Knicks I guess)
MJB 123 I'd love to see the jets take off but the other teams, not so much...
LawndaleLion yeah I know, we have a solid future
Holy fuck they did it again
did I ever tell you the definition of insanity?
Oh boy it’s the prequel for 2023😂🫡🫡
Regardless of how the season ends we need to revisit this team soon..
that's inevitable now
Who's here after the trade after the breakdown Yeah it's time for another video or just the legacy of failure or hell both
I'm a nets fan and I've been waiting for this since I found you channel
Anybody here after the Nets have 5 all stars now?
Anyone back after the recent trade deadline? Tree i need a redux of this
And now, the KD, Kyrie, Harden superteam has ended just like the Pierce, KG and Jason Terry superteam
This channel is phenomenal!! learned so much
Did we come full circle?
Brook Lopez is now a champion.
Back here after the Nets were swept out of the playoffs for the second straight year.
It happened again. KD and Kyrie are both officially gone now.
As well as Harden, even tho he was traded last season
This aged like fine wine
And now they have Kyrie, KD, and Jordan
Part 2 needs to happen. They had a Big 3 and fumbled the bag. Horrifically.
In fairness, most of the fumbling was a direct result of Kyrie Irving being a cancer.
Just the format made me like. You have exceeded my expectations, sir.
This video can now go into the history vault
Sometimes it's the little things with these videos, like Billy King wiping sweat from his head as "but the fire's were already at five alarm stages" is said at 6:26.
This aged as good as milk
i was looking forward to this, and i was not disappointed keep up the good work
Hey Tree please make a Part 2 for KD and Kyrie
Think about this for a second. The Nets have had 3 superteams in almost 20 years and they still have no championships to show for.
Kidd/Carter/Jefferson = No Rings
Pierce/Garnett/Johnson/Lopez/Williams = No Rings
KD/Kyrie/Harden/Griffin/Harris = No Rings
The NBA's version of the Modern Tragedy. FOR SHAME!
Definitely keen to see a revisiting video after what seeing them get swept by the Celtics
HOLY SHIT.
The music from 5:41-6:48 is from the rome total war soundtrack hahahaha
I dont remember it in Rome: Total War. Are you sure you dont mean Total War: Rome 2?
also the theme of the final boss in Dark souls 3 Soul of Cinder
Luke Amendolara definitely the original rome total war, its played on the campaign map for eastern factions
I'm so glad I discovered you. This channel will blow up soon!
Here after Celtics go up 2-0 with two of the very picks Billy King traded away
Make it 3-0 and on the verge of being swept by the Celtics lol
@@ChiefBlue4298 The Nets just got sweep by the Celtics LOL
here after Tree said that he could copy and paste this video for the current moment of the Nets
Act 4 can't come fast enough. What a wasted opportunity to potentially win a title. Im still going to root for my Nets no matter what, if we survived the legendary 12-70 record then we can survive without 2 superstars
I’m here because KD, Kyrie, and Deandre Jordan is gone. You’ll be back to the basement next season.
