Nets and Nash Part Ways Amid 2-5 Start
It was announced Tuesday afternoon that Brooklyn and Nash parted ways just seven games into the season. Nash had a 94-67 record across three seasons as the Nets’ coach.
Brooklyn entered the season with +700 odds to win the NBA Finals, tied for the fourth-best odds at SI Sportsbook. After this rocky start, despite the phenomenal play of Kevin Durant and Kyrie Irving (who is at the heart of yet another controversy), those odds have fallen to +1000, which is sixth-best behind the Celtics (+550), Warriors (+600), Bucks (+600), Clippers (+700) and Suns (+850).
