Brooklyn is almost at the point where they wont be able to win enough games to catch the 2,3,4th place teams. If Miami, Dallas, and the Sixers each win one more game before the Nets do it will be very hard for the Nets to catch them basically assuring the Cs pick is top 4

76ers win, Minny wins, and Brooklyn are now 3 games clear with the worst record.

Miami will be a threat but Philly are 5-5 in their last 10 games. New York are 2-8 in their last 10 but they are too good to fall to BRK territory.

#1 pick here we come baby.

The best odds anyways...worst case would be #4 pick.

Well lets look at the odds here. Brooklyn has won 8 games so far. Miami is currently at 11. If Miami moves to 12 before Brooklyn gets to 9 you are basically talking about Brooklyn having to win at a much higher clip to even tie these other teams let alone pass them. A 4 game lead is pretty big.

It looks really good now but anything could still happen. Not even halfway through the season and the nets still have Lin to come back and a possible change of chemiy in a Lopez deal.

The Heat have 3 games against the Nets so they could close the gap just losing those.  Teams that are going to tank do need to start soon if they hope to close the gap.

Nets up 6 at the half.  AD is out for NO with a hip injury, which makes them a pretty bad team.

  • Boston Celtics= Championships, nothing less.
Tyreke and Holiday are keeping NO in it with 3 mins left.

Gonna be a close one. If the Nets lose this the #1 pick is our destiny!
"We are lucky we have a very patient GM that isn't willing to settle for being good and coming close. He wants to win a championship and we have the potential to get there still with our roster and assets."

quoting 'Greg B' on RealGM after 2017 trade deadline.
Read that last line again. One more time.

I wasn't able to watch the 1st quarter, but the Pels looked absolutely terrible in the 2nd and a little less terrible in the 3rd.  The fact that they're about to win this game without their best player in AD is a testament to how bad the Nets really are.
