The Nets are sitting at 4-42 on the season as they have the 1972-1973 Philadelphia 76ers in their sites.  That Sixers team went 9-73 compiling the worst record in NBA history.  The Nets have a real shot at this record especially if they dump some players at the trade deadline.  The Nets are equally horrible both at home (3-19) and on the road (1-23) as they are outscored by an average of 12 points per game (101.7-89.7).  The Nets are not without talent though so I have a hard time believing that they can’t win at least 6 more games this season.  It all begins with second year center Brook Lopez who has played in 45 games (all starts) in which he is averaging 36.4 minutes, 18.9 points, 9.3 rebounds and 2.2 assists per game.  Lopez is the Nets’ only untouchable player as the trade deadline approaches.  Point guard Devin Harris has been a huge disappointment when he has been healthy enough to play.  He has played in 31 games (28 starts) this season and he is averaging 33.6 minutes, 15.3 points, 3.1 rebounds, 5.9 assists and 1.5 steals per game.  Harris is only shooting 37.8% from the floor and 21.7% from the three point line.  It looks like the losing is getting to him as he seems to be pressing too much.  Harris just needs to get healthy and worry about doing his job of running the offense instead of gunning the ball too much.  Power forward Yi Jianlian got off to a late start this season due to injury.  He has played in 21 games (20 starts) for the Nets this season and he is averaging 32.4 minutes, 14.3 points, 6.6 rebounds and 0.7 assists per game.  Chris Douglas-Roberts has been a surprise for the Nets this season as he is playing pretty well.  He has played in 36 games (34 starts) for the Nets this season and he is averaging 33.8 minutes, 13.4 points, 4.2 rebounds, 1.9 assists and 1.2 steals per game.  Courtney Lee has been a disappointment so far this season for the Nets.  He has played in 37 games (32 starts) this season and he is averaging 32.5 minutes, 11.3 points, 3.4 rebounds, 2.0 assists and 1.5 steals per game.  I will be stunned if the Nets set a new record for futility this season because they do have some good, young talented players.
