The Nets have won 6 of their last 10 games and are 36-40 now on the season.  They have to continue to play well as they don’t have a playoff spot locked up.  They are 1 game ahead of the Magic and 2 games ahead of the Pacers.  It’s also possible that the Nets could catch the Wizards for the #6 spot in the Eastern Conference as they are three games behind the Wizards who have really been weakened by injury.
