The circus is in Brooklyn, and no, we're not talking about the Nets.
It's actually Ringing Bros and Barnum and Bailey Bros Circus that come around every season that forces the Nets to go on extensive road-trips.
The Nets, who won't play at home until March 13, lost the first game of their nine-game road-trip with a final score of 112-104, despite a season-high 36 points from Brook Lopez.
The wins haven't come easy away (or at) from Barclays this season where the Nets now stand at 4-20. Eight straight games on the road following this game doesn't bode too well for the guys in black and white.
