This is just painful to see as the once-mighty Brooklyn Nets are on their biggest falloff with an eight-game losing streak. The last time the Nets won was against the San Antonio Spurs way back on January 21. Their record plummeted to 29-24 and another loss will make them fall another spot below the NBA Eastern Conference at 8th place. James Harden is back in this upcoming game but Kyrie Irving is still on the clause that he won’t play home games after refusing to get vaccinated. Kevin Durant is far from returning from his injury and other players from the Nets’ roster need to step up.
