Milwaukee players received their championship rings and hung the title banner while the Nets looked on in envy, hoping that they will be able to stage a similar ceremony at Barclays Center come next season.īut Tuesday’s contest was hardly one at all.
The Nets (0-1) trailed by 12 points after 12 minutes and never seriously challenged the Bucks (1-0), who knocked Brooklyn out of the Eastern Conference semifinals in seven memorable games earlier this year before grabbing their first title since 1971. “If you’re not playing at a high level against the champs, you’re not going to win.” Nash added. “We weren’t very good,” Nets head coach Steve Nash ceded plainly after Brooklyn started the much-anticipated campaign with Tuesday night’s 127-104 loss to the defending NBA champion Milwaukee Bucks in front of a sellout crowd of 17,341 fans at the Fiserv Forum.
