The Nets took a frustrating loss to the Trail Blazers on Thursday night, going down 113-99 in an effort where they just could not seem to get the offense clicking until it was too late. Maybe it was All-Star Weekend rust, maybe it was just a bad performance. Who’s to say? What needs to happen next is a rally for a matchup with the Hornets in Charlotte on Friday night. Charlotte is right behind Brooklyn as the Nets try to hold onto that six seed, and Kemba Walker and co. would love to snatch it from them.
