LONG TERM: Nets are exactly where they need to be at the midway point
It’s been humbling, but the Brooklyn Nets are exactly where they need to be at this stage of the rebuild. Even if it means utter embarrassment and perhaps a lack of shame.
The Nets suffered their worst loss in franchise history on Wednesday, a 59-point loss at the hands of the Los Angeles Clippers. It’s innocent, really. Just another part of the love-hate relationship the Nets and their fans get themselves wrapped into.
Following the Nets can be a masochist’s sport and fans are conflicted. Some wanted to tank and some want to win. Neither is wrong and both are justified. A 59-point loss should be embarrassing, it shouldn’t be rewarding. But for the first time in a long time, it is.
