As was the case last week, you can’t expect this team to win anymore. They need to be playing their young players and exploring their talents, which they have been doing. It’s still frustrating when the Nets lose because there is perhaps a small belief that they can turn their season around. They still remain 2.5 games behind the Miami Heat who own the second worst record in the NBA.
Brook Lopez is occasionally held out for rest purposes, and Jeremy Lin still remains injury prone and off of the court, but look at the bright side — it allows the young players to get minutes and have an opportunity to prove themselves.
