PHILADELPHIA — The hottest shooter in the league has gone ice cold.
And the Nets’ playoff hopes in a do-or-die Game 5 versus the Sixers may hinge on getting Joe Harris heated back up.
“It’s just a matter of time,” Kenny Atkinson said. “I used to watch this in baseball all the time. The star hitter is hitting .180, and then all of a sudden there’s a game where he goes 5-for-6. He will regress back to the mean. I hope it happens next game.”
If the Nets lose Tuesday there won’t be a next game until next season.
