Who says the New Jersey Nets are bad? Me, you, the world, and God that's who. These guys are an absolute joke. Yeah they beat the surprisingly respectable (thanks to Eric Gordon) LA Clippers, but there's a catch. Devin Harris and Courtney Lee were both out with injuries. Now if they weren't 4-40 I would think it was a testament to their talent to win without their star and a key role player, but since they are the worst team in NBA history, I just have to chalk this one up to pure luck mixed with a Clippers team taking the night off. I mean Kris Humphrey's was struttin around like he owned the place scoring a cool career high 25 and pulling down 8 rebs. Something in the universe was off balance last night. Maybe Mike Dunleavy broke a mirror and forgot to toss some salt over his shoulder. JV mistake. Anyway, don't go out and put money on the Nets the rest of the year. My guess is they actually didn't mean to win. If you've won 3 of 40 games, what's the motivation? There's probably more motivation to keep losing and draft John Wall than to win a few more and give the T-Wolves a better shot at winning the lottery. I bet, as soon as it looked like the Nets would actually pull it out, Jay-Z and Bruce Ratner were radioing down to Kiki Vandeweghe saying "ABORT ABORT!"
The way the Nets are playing a BJ a day from Beyonce couldn't convince Lebron to come to Jersey/Brooklyn.
