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

Sixers beat the Knicks on a LAST SECOND SHOT LOL 98-97 

Ah, so happy... Markelle inches closer while Phil finally gets found out. A guy whose aura, whose entire life, has been lottery-ticketed by one guy.

Minnesota also about to win against the Rockets, who have been next to unbeatable of late.  An unexpected win that brings them up to 12.  Not that I think they'd finish behind the Nets, but having more breathing room is always welcome.

1st in the lottery becomes more and more likely if things keep trending this way.

Just gotta have some luck with the ping pong balls

Hopefully Philly continues to bench Okafor. He kills them whenever he's on the floor and giving Noel his minutes gives them an above average NBA caliber center rotation.

Oh...I thought  Jahlil was hurt.

Philly just 7 games out of playoffs!!! LB33's fun bits must be buzzing like a beehive

Nope. 3 straight DNP-CD.

I didn't even realize the 76ers won! Ric Flair "Wooooooooooooooooooooo!"

Yep.  Because he is an awful player.  Hinkie would still have a job if he drafted the Zinger.

Noel is being showcased. Doubt either are in the Sixers long-term plans, but they have to trade Noel now or lose him for nothing.

[chambers]

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.

Okay, I know that this is the internet and everything, but it's still possible to overshare.

As a 40+ year Red Sox fan, I've been taught that optimism is a dangerous thing. Hope is a dangerous thing. Hope can drive a man insane. It's got no use on the inside.

Nevertheless, had somebody told me at the beginning of the year that, after 37 games, the Nets would be 1.5 games "in front" and only two teams would be within three games of them, well, my fun bits might have felt a bit like LB33's.

Anthony Davis is questionable tonight (hip) for game vs. Brooklyn.  That situation will obviously play a major factor in that game.
