New year, new Nets? On the first day of the year (and second leg of a back-to-back), Brooklyn played host to the Orlando Magic. The game was close throughout and the Nets pulled it out late.
The opponent this evening will be the Minnesota Timverwolves. After a busy offseason, the Wolves came into the year hoping to make it to the playoffs for the first time since 2004. They’ve won eight out of their last ten games, including Monday’s game against the Lakers. They’ve got one more on the road before heading back home for a five game homestand.
