    The Brooklyn Nets can’t wait to get out of L.A. They can’t wait for their road trip out West to end. They can’t wait for Jeremy Lin (and others) to get back from their injuries. They can’t wait to get on the winning track again.

    The Brooklyn Nets aren’t going to let this season end (for them) too soon, winning their first game without Jeremy Lin, beating the Minnesota Timberwolves 119-110. Brook Lopez led a group of six players in double figures, Isaiah Whitehead with all of his limitations is enjoying a warm support from his home fans, and it seems Rondae Hollis-Jefferson is finally starting to look like a capable NBA player.
