Nets: Most Smartest Team In the League?

That team was nice and all, but the East was also weaker then. They were definately not going to make the finals or even be at the same level they were with how the East improved.

They did take the Pistons to 7, now.

Actually, come to think of it, for three consecutive years they lost to the NBA Champion. First in a sweep, then in 6, then in 7. Not too shabby.
