Brooklyn Nets (30-29)
The Brooklyn Nets have had a great season thus far, and I don’t think anyone would argue with that statement at this point in the season. The Nets have surpassed expectations this season, and are on pace for finishing in the top 6 of the East, which would include them making the playoffs for the first time since the 2014-15 season.
On top of that, this team has a really nice core in Caris LeVert (who just returned from injury), Spencer Dinwiddie, Jarrett Allen and D’Angelo Russell. And they will have a ton of money to spend during free agency this summer, with some big decisions to make regarding D-Russ.
Not to get ahead of ourselves, the Nets have been great and fun this season. Something that hasn’t been said about this franchise in a very long time. The best thing about it all is that this is just the beginning.
Grade: B+
