Nets, Wolves Battling for the BottomNovember 23, 2009, 12:57 pmIf only Damien Wilkins hadn’t hit that buzzer beater in Minnesota back on October 28. Then, it would the Wolves who’d be tempting fate with an 0-13 start. John Hollinger of ESPN and John Schuhmann of NBA.com think the Wolves are a worse team in this week’s power rankings. ESPN’s Marc Stein, SI’s Chris Mannix and USA Today’s Chris Colston go with conventional wisdom: a 1-12 team is better than one 0-13.

It’s strange how people can take so much delight in other peoples misery. Soon Lawrence Frank will be on Leno and Letterman… Opie on Oprah. Can’t wait.

If you look at the schedule, the Nets could easily start the season 0-28, with the 29th game being their best chance at a win (home against the Twolves). There are some slight chances at wins before 0-28, at the Kings next week and at home against Charlotte… but the nets NEVER win in sacto and have had lots of trouble with charlotte the last few years (already this year!). So really, I think 0-28 is very much in play, which is depressing, because it means 9-73, or even 8-74, is suddenly in play…. If we at least knew for sure we were moving to Brooklyn and getting John Wall next year it would ease the pain a bit, but it could easily be Seattle/Kansas City and 4th pick of the draft with just a little more bad luck… somebody cheer me up

@ram bunkshus;
Cheer up. If it’s Seattle or Kansas City, you can still follow the team with NBA’s League Pass.

Is this the first time we are at the bottom of the ESPN power rankings since its inception? This is a weird feeling (been a fan since 95) to be the worse team in the league (there were bad years but never thought the nets were the worse in the league)……

I feel that I am one of the few that stands by my team no matter how bad they do compared to those bandwagoners who are only there when they are winning.
