Net of his durum:
Rooklyn Nets are in eighth place in the Eastern Conference with a 9-10 record after 19 games. Especially their recent three-game winning streak draws attention with the results obtained from difficult away matches. These victories against strong opponents such as the Sacramento Kings, Golden State Warriors and Phoenix Suns reflect the Nets’ rising form.
The Jordi Fernandez Effect
The arrival of new head coach Jordi Fernandez has significantly increased the team’s game organization and efficiency. Under the leadership of Fernandez, the players were placed in the right roles and this harmony brought success. While Cam Thomas draws attention as the team’s leading scorer with an average of 24.7 points, names such as Dennis Schroder and Cameron Johnson also stand out with their effective performances. Schroder makes a significant contribution to the team with 18.6 points and 42% three-point shooting. Johnson, on the other hand, is the team’s savior in critical moments.
Defensive Weaknesses
The Nets’ biggest handicap is their defensive weakness. They concede 118.6 points per game, making them one of the worst defensive teams in the league. This situation makes it difficult for them to win a match, no matter how effective they are in attack. Unless the defensive gaps are closed, it will be a challenge for them to continue their winning streak.
What is Required to Continue the Winning Streak?
It will be critical for the Brooklyn Nets to maintain the successful three-point percentage they have achieved in recent games to win against the Orlando Magic. Especially his outside shooting accuracy and effective play in the fast break can enable the Nets to extend their winning streak to four games. In addition, taking a more disciplined approach in defense is essential for them to achieve stable results in the long term.

Orlando Magic ranked third in the Eastern Conference with 13-7, with 11 wins in their last 12 games. They continued their strong performance by beating the Chicago Bulls 133-119 in their last match. This period of the season has been a sign of steady rise for the Magic.
Franz Wagner Effect in Banchero’s Lack
Magic, who made a rapid start to the season with Paolo Banchero’s effective performance, went through a difficult period with Banchero’s injury. However, during this period, Franz Wagner stepped in and assumed leadership of the team. Wagner carries the offensive burden of the team with averages of 23.3 points, 5.7 assists and 5.4 rebounds. Jalen Suggs has also made significant progress this season, contributing with an average of 15.6 points. However, fluctuations in his three-point percentage prevent him from reaching a higher level.
Defense and Rebounding Power
The most important elements that make the Orlando Magic so successful are their defensive discipline and superiority in rebounding. The Magic, the third best defensive team in the league, concedes only 106.8 points per 100 possessions. They also allow opponents just 12.5 offensive rebounds, leading them in the NBA.
Attack Efficiency Should Be Improved
Although Magic excels defensively, he needs to be more efficient offensively. They are the eighth worst offensive team in the league with an average of 111.2 points per 100 possessions. If they can improve their offensive efficiency, the Orlando Magic will move closer to the top of the league and will have no trouble continuing their winning streak.
