I'm not sure if the Nets are just trying to tank, or if they honestly think that Claxton is going to be the next Hakeem down low. I'm all for development but this looks like a bad idea all the way around hahaha.
I mean, not really. This is a Nets team playing with a lot of confidence with wins over Boston, Minny and Den (all on the road) over the last 2 weeks and a 5-2 record. Mikal Bridges been playing like a star.
They're just super flat and/or we're playing good defense. Also really helps Claxton has absolutely no answer for Domas physicality in the post.
