There’s a saying about leaving well enough alone: Don’t poke the bear.
Golden State didn’t just poke the NBA’s biggest bear, the Warriors slapped it in the face and left the Nets standing there like a hot lunch.
We saw how that worked out for Leonardo DiCaprio in his lighthearted little movie “The Revenant,” and it could look about that ugly for the Nets on Wednesday. They would have had a tough enough time with Cleveland and LeBron James, but the East-leading Cavaliers come to Barclays Center seething after a 132-98 loss to the Warriors on Monday, and the Nets are the team likely to pay for it.
