It was fun while it lasted. The Brooklyn Nets went into DC on Friday hoping to push their winning streak to three games. It wasn’t meant to be as the Washington Wizards blew them out by 21 points. For what it’s worth, they’ve been having a good month so a one game beatdown is a bit easier to swallow.
The opponent today will be the Atlanta Hawks. While they’re still in line to make the playoffs, things have fallen apart in the ATL. Their losing streak is up to six after Friday’s loss against the Milwaukee Bucks.
