New Jersey - How Many Wins?

[Tiger Hawk]

The Nets are on pace to post the worst record of all time (7-75), currently sitting at 5-52. How many wins do people think they'll end up with? I'm going to say 9, to tie the current record (a Philadelphia squad from the 70s I think).

 

[ByRd]

I think they are just gonna beat it and get to 10 wins lol but i wouldnt be surprised is they finish with less than 9.

 

[Ridders]

I can see them hitting double figures.

11 wins.

 

[Ridders]

Charlotte have lost TWICE to the Nets. Lol.

 

[andrew057]

Yeah I was about to say, depends if they play the bobbies again this season.

 

[Ridders]

I can just see them stringing together some wins towards the end of the season as teams either rest some of their stars for the playoffs or shut down their injured players if they are out of the playoff race.

 

[McLovin]

Surely they'll win at least 5 of the remaining 30 matches...

Surely they'll win at least 5 of the remaining 30 matches...

Surely the Nets would've won at least 1 of their first 18 matches....:sarcasm:

 

[Nth-Qld-Raider]

Thats a tough one lol, think they have 6 wins now, they might get 9, just fall short of double digits.

Poor of Nets, gee they wanna hope they can get a few good free agents this year, and the number 1 draft pick, and pick up J Wall, he looks a good young player.

 

[Ridders]

Wierd thing is that their roster isn't THAT terrible. Devin Harris, Brook Lopez, Courtney Lee, Yi; I mean these are all decent players. They shouldn't be this bad.

odds don't back it, being 5 out of 57 so far.

Harris, Lopez and to a lesser extent Lee are decent.

Yi on the other hand is awful. A 7-footer who shoots under 40% from the field (and only 42% in the immediate basket area!!), is in the bottom third of power forwards in rebound rate, and doesn't create shots for others. He's a catch and shoot guy that can't shoot - the Chinese Brian Scalabrine.

 

[Nth-Qld-Raider]

Yeah Yi is pretty ordinary to say the least, looks like he needs a good feed.

Devin Harris is really missing Vince Carter, they had a good combination last year, i hope they can pick up a couple of good players, to help out Harris and Lopez.

I think if they had of pulled there fingers out a while ago and got the move to Brooklyn done early, they may of had a chance to get Lebron or a few other top free agents, but that wont be happening now.

 

[McLovin]

They have a team full of 3rd and 4th options. Carn Nets...4 from the next 20 or so...

 

[Stranger]

One more in the w column

 

[Ridders]

3 to go boys!!!

 

[Ridders]

We are in range now.

Nets need 3 more wins now from their remaining 14 games to avoid having the worst record ever.

Imo this is almost as fun as following the race to the playoffs.

 

[Ridders]

Nets have won back-to-back games to get to 9 wins.

So at worst they would match the 72 Sixers team. Still have 10 games to go to surpass them.

 

[Nth-Qld-Raider]

Nearly double figures for the Nets.

Looks like there massive 2 game winning streak will come to an end today against the Bulls.

 

[McLovin]

Net's just celebrated like they won the Championship...
