The Orlando Magic didn’t give the Brooklyn Nets any sort of a discount tonight on Black Friday. Dropping this one 123-120, Brooklyn’s shorthandedness seemed to finally, finally catch up to them.
For team tank, that wait was like one where you’re sitting in a room before a dentist appointment. Your phone is dead and the magazine selection is nothing special. For those eager to get their hands on as many wins they can, it was like spending an extra day at a five star hotel on the house.
But no matter how you visualized Brooklyn’s three-game winning streak, you knew it would be ending relatively early tonight.
