The day started off well, but things went as they usually do for the Nets by the end of it. Brooklyn got off to a great start against the Wizards and led by 15 points at halftime, but fell apart in the third quarter and suffered a crushing home loss on Monday night. As it turns out, that wasn’t even their worst loss of the day. More on that in a bit.
The opponent tonight will be the Denver Nuggets. After a rough couple of years, the Nuggets appear to be on the right track going forward.
