Just as the were 2-2, 3-3, 4-4, and 5-5, they now sit at 6-6 after a road loss to the Miami Heat, ending their five-game win streak against the NBA’s southern-most franchise. Consistency is key, I suppose.
While Miami hadn’t lost since a November 1 contest against Brooklyn, when Armoni Brooks and Trendon Watford burst onto the scene, the Nets have showed an admirable commitment to maintaining a .500 record. Brooklyn’s start to the season may feel more positive than 6-6, especially considering the cascading injuries that currently feature Cam Thomas and Ben Simmons on the shelf. But a winning streak might be nice, no?
