The New York Post on Oct. 10, 2025 released an article that offers an initial assessment of whether the Brooklyn Nets may be positioning themselves for a deliberate rebuild—commonly referred to as “tanking”—in the upcoming NBA season.
In this first look, the newspaper outlines what it has learned so far about the franchise’s approach, citing early observations that hint at a strategy focused more on long-term draft positioning than immediate on-court success.
The report stops short of declaring a full-scale tank job but raises questions about how competitively the Nets will pursue victories as the 2025-26 campaign approaches.
