Walls are closing in. The Brooklyn Nets started their three game road trip with a marquee matchup against the resurgent Boston Celtics. It was a fun game to watch, but for the Nets, they couldn’t bring it home as Jayson Tatum’s 54 point masterclass got the Nets their fourth straight loss and they are now below .500 on the season. The team is in ninth place in the Eastern Conference and the objective from here on out is to at least be in the seventh or eighth spot so they have something resembling breathing room.
