The easy part of the schedule is over and the Nets would no doubt feel better if they had beaten Charlotte on Wednesday night at home. But that opportunity was lost when Devonte Graham destroyed with a 40-point performance.
Now, the Nets have a back-to-back weekend of the Raptors in Toronto on Saturday and the 76ers home on Sunday. The division best have a combined record of 35-15 and stars aplenty.
The Nets missing stars won’t play in either game but Wilson Chandler will likely make his Nets debut on Sunday.
