Next stop, playoffs. The Brooklyn Nets had one job on Friday night, and they got it done with plenty of room to spare. They took care of the Orlando Magic to clinch the sixth seed and ensure an automatic bid into the postseason next week. Considering all of the mess they’ve been through this season, that’s a heck of an accomplishment.
The opponent tonight is looking to start the running clock as well. The Philadelphia 76ers are locked in to the three seed and focused on making it to the playoffs in one piece.
