    About this ebook

    Get the Summary of Matt Sullivan's Can't Knock the Hustle in 20 minutes. Please note: This is a summary & not the original book. Original book introduction: The Nets were already the most intriguing startup in the NBA: a team of influencers, entrepreneurs and activists, starring the controversial Kevin Durant and Kyrie Irving. But this dynasty-in-the-making got disrupted by the unforeseen. One tweet launched an international scandal, pitting the team's Chinese owner and the league's commissioner against its players and LeBron James. The sudden death of Kobe Bryant, after making his final public appearance in Brooklyn, sent shockwaves through a turbulent season.

    Then came the unimaginable. A global pandemic and a new civil-rights movement put basketball's trend-setting status to the ultimate test, as business and culture followed the lead of the NBA and its empowered stars. No team intersected with the extremes of 2020 quite like the Brooklyn Nets, and Matt Sullivan had a courtside view.

      In a conversation with the author, Kyrie Irving, the point guard for the Boston Celtics, stated that he wanted to be remembered as one of the greatest point guards in NBA history. He also mentioned that they were planning on bringing Kevin Durant to the Nets.

      In 2010, LeBron James became a free agent. The Nets, still two seasons away from moving to Brooklyn, flew him to Cleveland to meet with their new owner, Mikhail Prokhorov, who was prepared to spend $223 million to acquire him.
