The team has been known as the New Jersey Americans, New York Nets, New Jersey Nets and now Brooklyn Nets, while constantly relocating throughout the New York metropolitan area. Though often plagued by instability and futility, the franchise has celebrated iconic moments in the course of ABA and NBA history. Julius Erving's legendary play led the team to a pair of ABA titles in 1974 and 1976. The meteoric rise of European superstar Dražen Petrović followed by his tragic death in 1993 is etched into basketball fans' hearts worldwide. Jason Kidd's uncommon will steered New Jersey to back-to-back NBA Finals appearances in 2002 and 2003. An enlightening phone call from NBA commissioner David Stern in 1997 paved the way for the team's move to Brooklyn in 2012. Author Rick Laughland charts the brutal lows and exuberant highs throughout the history of the Nets.

"Even before they'd ever played a game, the Brooklyn Nets were outselling the New York Knicks in team apparel and merchandise. In their first season they ranked fourth in league-wide jersey sales, indicative of the trendy appeal and broad fan base. When the Nets played their first game at Barclays Center in downtown Brooklyn in the fall of 2012, they succeeded in bringing professional sports back to Brooklyn for the first time since the Dodgers abandoned the borough in 1957. Now Brooklyn Bounce chronicles the historic first season, full of highs and lows--plenty of them entirely unexpected. Jake Appleman takes us inside the locker room, combining vignettes and interviews from the team's transition from the New Jersey swamp to gentrified Brooklyn, to an opening night delayed by Hurricane Sandy, to an epic seven-game playoff showdown with the Chicago Bulls. The Nets were the game's foremost paradox in 2013, a team that managed to be the most improved in the NBA, but also consistently disappointed. What made them interesting wasn't their style of play or even their unique collection of personalities; it was their constant state of re-invention and their evolving relationship with their new home: as the Barclays crowds would chant it, BrooOOOK-LYN!"--
