The Nets' first regular-season opponent in the Barclays Center in Brooklyn will be the cross-town rival Knicks.
The New York Knicks have signed Pablo Prigioni, the point guard for Argentina's national team.
Now that he's settled in as a Houston Rocket, former Knick Jeremy Lin is taking some time to reflect on what ensued in the past year of his life.
The 27-year-old appeared in all 66 games for the Bulls last season -- starting 43 of them -- averaging 6.2 points, 2.1 assists and 3.5 rebounds in 24.8 minutes per game.
For the first time in a long time, both franchises are relevant and have the talent to make the playoffs. So which team is better?
Talk about Lin-gering over a decision.
The Knicks' offseason has been nearly as crazy as their season. But with the final pieces in place, it's finally time to take a look at their roster and figure out exactly how good they are.
Some have panned the Knicks' decision not to match Houston's big-money offer sheet for Jeremy Lin. But Raymond Felton, back in NY, doesn't seem to think fans at MSG will miss Linsanity.
"I'm so thankful to New York and the Knicks for this past year, and the way that the fans rooted for us," Lin said. "I'm thankful for what they did for me."
There's plenty of blame to go around when figuring out who to point the finger at for the loss of Jeremy Lin. It should be no surprise that it all starts at the top.
Jeremy Lin is starting over in Houston. He will have to explain why he said he would have rather stayed in New York.
With the signings of Jason Kidd, Marcus Camby, and Raymond Felton, the Knicks have opted for older, more experienced talent rather than matching Jeremy Lin's contract offer from Houston.
Let's face it: keeping Jeremy Lin was an on-court and financial gamble the Knicks couldn't risk taking.
Lin became a Houston Rocket on Tuesday night when the Knicks refused to match a three-year deal worth about $25 million, ending a brief but amazing run as New York's point guard.
Linsanity in New York is, well, gone with the Lin. Did the Knicks make the right move or will regret eventually rear its ugly head?
