The most anticipated season in Nets history came to a close on Sunday. Brooklyn finished their successful regular-season campaign with the best winning percentage (.662) in franchise history, 24 games over .500 — another record — with countless individual and collective standards shattered. Now, they’ll move on to the postseason as the second seed in the Eastern Conference playoffs.
“It’s great. You think about all the things that have been thrown at us and how difficult this year was for everybody. Just the condensed schedule and all the protocols; I’m really proud of our team,” said Steve Nash reflecting on the 2020-21 season and locking up the second seed.
