LOS ANGELES — Joe Harris has been unerringly efficient all year. But when he’s also prolific, the Nets offense goes to the next level.

That’s what they will need down the stretch, as they try to make a desperate dash for the playoffs through the NBA’s toughest remaining schedule.

“We become a much more explosive offense in general,” Spencer Dinwiddie said. “We go from OK to big time.”

He’s not wrong. In desperate need of a third scorer to complement Dinwiddie and D’Angelo Russell, the Nets are more potent when Harris can fill that role.
