Again, it’s only preseason.
But the Brooklyn Nets, without Brook Lopez and Randy Foye, were defeated by the Miami Heat, without Chris Bosh, to drop to 1-2 in a collection of games where wins and losses don’t matter, but results do.
Results like Jeremy Lin continuing his Brooklyn Three party, knocking down 2-of-3 with his new release, improving to 7-of-11 from deep throughout the preseason.
Like Bogdan Bogdanovic pouring in an efficient 13 points in 20 minutes on only eight shot attempts, including a 3-of-4 showing from beyond the arc.
Like Justin Hamilton scoring 12 points and knocking down 2-of-5 from deep, showcasing his ability to stretch the floor as an NBA center.
