Dorian Finney-Smith, the last time you and the Brooklyn Nets were visiting TD Garden, the Boston Celtics beat you by 50, the second-worst loss in franchise history. Does that weigh on you?
“Yeah. But they’ve been beating the *** out of a lot of people.”
Fair enough.
Indeed, the Nets are taking their plucky selves to Boston on Friday night, then to Cleveland on Saturday night, facing two teams with a combined record of 15-2 within 24 hours. It’s not that Brooklyn has played comedic schedule en route to a 4-4 start, but this is a little different.
