Storify: Nets 108, 76ers 105

  1. In case you haven't realized by now, tonight marks the first game in Brooklyn #Nets history. Preseason or not, that's exciting #NBA
  2. Doug Collins on #Nets: "They have depth. They can rebound the ball, they have size. So they are going to be a very formidable team."
  3. Sounds like Mirza Teletovic has the green light. Avery Johnson: "When Mirza's open, he can shoot it from the parking lot."
  4. The weird old guy that danced during every commercial break at Nets games apparently re-upped his season tickets.
  5. The Nets on the floor for the first time in their Brooklyn warmups. http://pic.twitter.com/OG3Ajl7V
  6. From courtside, it looks like there is about 10 times as much #Sixers apparel as there is #Nets apparel #NBA.
  7. I have a feeling there will be no celebrity sightings in Boardwalk Hall tonight. But I did talk to Andray Blatche's mother. Wonderful woman.
  8. Kris Humphries absolutely explodes for a monster jam off of a Joe Johnson steal. And #Nets lead 2-0.
  9. The amount of time it took to get used to the Nets not wearing their old uniforms was 0 seconds.
  10. The truth is, the black BROOKLYN jersey looks pretty awesome. Much better than the white #Nets #NBA
  11. Defense better than expected; pretzels much worse.
  12. I've been surprised the Nets are pushing the ball as much as they are. Avery has said they want to play fast, but they're playing awful fast
  13. I meant awfully fast, but ran out of characters. Look good early, though. Up 13-8 halfway through first.
  14. Not getting excited. Nope not me. Not doing it.
  15. First substitution or the #Nets, Bogans for Humphries...Wallace moves inside. Smaller lineup something we may see a lot of this season.
  16. I don't know exactly how many turnovers the Nets have forced, but: it's a lot.
  17. Deron is on fire. Has a game-high 10 points and canned a pair of threes. #Nets up 26-13 with 2:27 left in first Q.
