Brooklyn Nets: High anxiety for Kenny Atkinson as Nets walk gauntlet
Brooklyn Nets coach Kenny Atkinson isn’t having a lot of fun as he leads his team through the NBA’s toughest finishing schedule with a playoff spot at stake.
If the Brooklyn Nets end up with their first playoff berth since 2015, it will not be a result of a cakewalk schedule to finish the season out.
Far from it.
According to tankathon.com, no team in the NBA faces a more daunting remaining road to the finish than do the Nets. Not among playoff contenders, mind you … that’s among everyone.
And it’s really not that close. The Nets enter play Monday with eight games remaining against opponents with a combined winning percentage of .641.
