The Nets dropped a 76 piece in the first half against the Thunder. The starting lineup was Killian Hayes, Cam Johnson, Keon Johnson, Day’Ron Sharpe, and Ziaire Williams. Jordi Fernandez is coaching his ass off. Nets players take pride in being the underdog. And none care about a tank.
Law of average came into play and Brooklyn lost, but even with the loss, they remain close enough to fight for a play-in spot with 24 games left. Tonight, it’s a team in a similar scenario — a team that was bottoming out most of the season until catching fire over the past month.
