I think, at this point, we can declare the 2018-19 Brooklyn Nets a Good Basketball Team. Not streaky, not bad, not OK, not just hot for a minute (although they’re scorching right now). No. They’re good. They won’t play this well all season, I mean they did have to squeak out a win against the Orlando Magic, but it is generally expected around the NBA that the Nets will make the playoffs in some capacity. And that, my friends, is awesome.
Another surprisingly fun team, the Sacramento Kings, are coming to Brooklyn on Monday for the first matchup of the season.
