The Official 2016-2017 Brooklyn Nets Season Watch Thread (20-62, #1)

[SCeltic34]

With the quantity of 3's the Nets take, they're bound to have huge quarters or halves here and there.  65 points in the 1st half, but only 31 in the 2nd half with 3 minutes left to go in the game.  Just gotta remember that it's an aberration and that they're not a good team on either end of the floor.  While it seemed questionable that Golden State would win, we all knew that Brooklyn wasn't going to sustain a 16+ point lead against the best team in the league, Draymond Green or not.

Bowed out at halftime when it was a 16-point deficit. Apparently, I didn't miss anything. Still 16 points.

It's really possible that Philly puts together a string of wins at some point this year. We have a very good chance for that # 1 pick. The Nets are the worst team in the NBA.

Now we know why the Nets take so many 3-pointers...

A very good chance for the best odds for the #1 pick... Not the actual #1 pick. The nets could lose every game from here on out, and we would still only have a 25% chance of getting the #1 pick.

which would constitute a pretty good chance in the context of what other teams would have.

for me, i am seeing the nets pick as a sure top 5, maybe top 3. i am satisfied with that, and with having an encore performance next year as well.

god, but this is fun.

A top 3 pick in this upcoming draft is as good as the #1 pick in most of the other recent drafts. If the Nets keep up this pace we are golden.

Had a strange feeling about this game, hence the 'not taking it for granted' post. Glad I missed it because I would've been very annoyed at half time.

No messing around tomorrow Cleveland. Just do your job thanks.

Lot of potential tomorrow for the pick:

Nets at Cavs - This is almost assuredly a loss and a win for us.

Philly at Phoenix - This is a win either way since these two teams are sandwiched around Brooklyn in the standings, though a Philly win would put the Nets at sole possession of last place for the first time.

Dallas at LAC - This is a likely loss for Dallas, but LAC is without Blake and will be on the second night of a back to back. So a potential opportunity for Dallas to provide some more separation between them and Brooklyn.

Kings at Timberwolves - The Kings are on a roll right now, but hopefully Minny can put a stop on that and provide further separation from Brooklyn, along with hurting Sacramento's playoff potential for the Boogie Watch.

Could be a pretty good night for the pick.

^ TP for the info, looking forward to tomorrow night.

Regarding the Dallas at LAC game, Chris Paul left tonight's game with a strained hamstring, so it'd doubtful that he'll play tomorrow night. Dallas could really take that game and gain more ground.

Clippers without CP and Blake are gonna freefall. Theyd have enough cushion though as the only have 8 losses.
