When the Brooklyn Nets and San Antonio Spurs trotted out to the floor tonight both sporting grey and white jerseys, it wasn’t just a wardrobe choice reveal — it was an omen of the colorless (but not odorless) game to proceed.
In their last contest before we turn the calendar, the two teams gave us one we’d prefer to leave behind in 2024. Although San Antonio walked away victorious, they did so in ugly fashion, shooting sub-40% from the field and 30% from three for much of the game.
The Nets did that too — but also lost the game.
