When Irving is no longer a god, and even when Adu is no longer stable, the Nets naturally can't win against the opponent. After losing to the Hornets today, the team's record fell to ninth in the East, and the Nets' road to the playoffs this season has another layer of obstacles. Don't look at the Nets hard power there, but before they make it to the playoffs, anything can happen.
The playoffs are not set up in a seven-game best-of-four format in the playoffs, where the playoffs are played out on a single-game elimination system. According to the current ranking, the Nets will first play one game against the Hawks in the 10th Place in the East, and then play one game against the winner between the 7th and 8th places. Although there are more fans who are optimistic about the Nets, it is not easy to win two vicious games in a row before entering the playoffs.
And before the playoffs start, there are two vicious battles, and the consumption of the Nets' physical strength is also obvious, and the opponents in the first round have the advantage of waiting for work. So the next thing for the Nets is to fight for every win and fight for only one playoff.
