The Brooklyn Nets, initially viewed as a team set to tank, are defying expectations with a surprising string of victories, including a recent win against the Philadelphia 76ers. They've achieved 20 wins before the All-Star break, surpassing Vegas' prediction for the season. Currently, they are just two games behind the Chicago Bulls for the final play-in spot in the Eastern Conference, shifting their focus from lottery positioning to playoff aspirations. Players like D'Angelo Russell and Nic Claxton are pivotal in this turnaround, demonstrating strong performances and a solid defense.
Brooklyn bested Philadelphia 100-96, marking their sixth win in seven games and pushing them closer to the NBA play-in tournament standings.
The Nets are now ahead of expectations with 20 wins, one more than what Vegas predicted for the entire season, showing promise.
