The Nets: Roller Coaster of Inconsistency

For New Jersey, this is nothing new. Not anymore. The minute they trading beloved Richard Jefferson, the whole season we knew was going into the crapper. Their record as of today is 12-12. That's still not bad. So why am I saying that this team is inconsistent? How about this little stat? The Nets, according to ESPN, are the only team in the entire NBA with a winning road record and a LOSING home record! How do you lose at home?! The Nets recently played the Raptors, beating them by 9. During the game they brought up a stat, saying that the Nets are an undefeated 2-0 against the Raptors in Toronto. However, they are 0-1 against them at their own home court in New Jersey. Now me personally, I'm a Nets fan. I'm from New Jersey, born and bred, but it just never gets easy for the home club. Without the help from J-Kidd and RJ, we're in trouble. We do however, have Devin Harris. He was given to the Nets during the transaction for J-Kidd. He's been phenomenal for the Nets. But all of that has gone unnoticed because of how the Nets have struggled. Hopefully they'll snap out of it, but unfortunately, I wouldn't count on it.
