1999–2000 New Jersey Nets season

The 1999–2000 NBA season was the Nets' 33rd season in the National Basketball Association, and 24th season in East Rutherford, New Jersey.[1] During the off-season, the Nets re-acquired Johnny Newman from the Los Angeles Clippers,[2][3][4] and re-signed free agent Sherman Douglas.[5][6][7] Without Jayson Williams, who missed the entire season with a knee injury from the previous season,[8][9][10][11] the Nets struggled losing 15 of their first 17 games,[12][13][14] but would eventually get hot winning 13 of their next 18 games, and find themselves near the playoff picture with a 31–40 record as of March 30.[15] However, a rash of late season injures cost the team to lose their final eleven games,[16] finishing sixth in the Atlantic Division with a 31–51 record.[17]

Roster notes

Regular season Edit

The Nets started the season at 2-15, a franchise record low. Despite the poor start, the Nets rallied back to compete for a playoff spot. The Nets were still alive in the playoff race at the beginning of April with three weeks left in the season. After the first week of April, the team was without their leading scorer, Stephon Marbury, who struggled with knee injuries. Other injuries included rookie Evan Eschmeyer (ankle), and starting shooting guard Kerry Kittles (knee).[31] The Nets were officially eliminated from playoff contention on April 7 after a 103-85 loss to the Miami Heat. The team finished the season by losing their final 11 games of the year.[22]
