22. Brooklyn Nets (4-6)
Last week: 26
Slowly but surely, the Brooklyn Nets are really making some stride. And not only this season, but over the last few years. The Nets, led by Kenny Atkinson, have a nice group of young, promising players that are beginning to put it together.
Had it not been for a game that they essentially handed to the Pelicans, the Nets should have four wins already on the season and be that much closer to a .500 team. And that’s essentially what this team has been this year. The Nets are averaged.
And for the first time in a long time, that’s a good thing for this franchise. Good things are coming to Brooklyn.
