Where do the Brooklyn Nets stand?
The Brooklyn Nets recently went on a 12-game winning streak before finally losing a game to the Chicago Bulls. However, the Nets bounced back well as they have then won two games in a row, looking to make it three as they go up against the Celtics.
It is a relief for the Nets fans to see the team finally playing up to their potential given how disastrous of a start they had this season. But it looks like their new interim head coach Jacque Vaughn was the missing piece of the puzzle.
