Winless in New Jersey
It is not too often that sports fans get to witness history, but the 11,689 people who had tickets to the Izod Center Wednesday night got to do just that. However, something tells me that all those New Jersey Nets fans would like to put this particular milestone behind them and focus all their attention on the free agent bonanza that is scheduled to be the summer of 2010.
Confused? Let me explain. On Wednesday night the Nets surpassed both the 1988-89 Miami Heat and the 1999 Los Angeles Clippers, who both dropped their first 17 games of the season, and took sole possession of the NBA’s record for worst losing streak to open a season. The Nets have opened up with an impressive 18 consecutive losses and will try to break their historic struggles Friday at home against the Charlotte Bobcats.
I imagine it is not too easy to be a Nets fan right about now, so to help ease their fan base’s pain I have gathered up some great deals on Nets gear and memorabilia for this Thursday edition of our Deal of the Day.
