The biggest April Fools joke somebody could tell you is that the Nets-Knicks rivalry is still alive.
As a matter of fact, the only players still around from the beginning of the ‘battle of the boroughs' are Carmelo Anthony and Brook Lopez.
With both teams long out of the running for playoff contention, the only thing that's keeping this matchup somewhat relevant is the matchup of twin brothers, Robin and Brook Lopez - both whom squared off against each other on their April 1st birthdays.
It was a sad reality check of where both teams stand.
