The Nets nearly pulled off a miracle comeback in Dallas on Monday night not long after the Knicks thoroughly manhandled the Timberwolves in Minneapolis.
The Knicks are 5-5; all of their wins have come against teams with losing records and all of their losses have come against teams with winning records. The Nets are 4-7, but have played notably better since Irving was suspended.
And there is that seven-game streak that has included some achingly close games, which the Nets have simply been better at closing out. Last season, the Knicks’ four losses to the Nets came by two , five , three and 12 . Thibodeau, Brunson, Randle and his players might not give extra weight to the Nets, not now, but figuring out a way to reverse that trend will go a long way toward keeping them afloat. The Nets need the same thing right now. Two scuffling teams and one geographic rivalry. That’s as good a reason to be at Barclays Center on Wednesday night as any.
