2018 NBA Power Rankings: It’s time to sell on the Cleveland Cavaliers
23. Brooklyn Nets (16-27)
The Brooklyn Nets have actually had a good season, considering what expectations were for them heading into this season. Before the year began, many had penned the Nets as a bottom 5 team in the NBA.
So far this season, they’ve been far from that – and that’s with injuries to Jeremy Lin and D’Angelo Russell. With them healthy, you could make the argument that this team might’ve been in the conversation for a playoff spot in the East. Right now, the Nets are only six games out of the 8th seed in the East.
The Nets don’t have their draft pick this season, but their future is coming along.
