They did it without Kyrie Irving and with James Harden essentially playing on one leg. So was it a bust for the Nets to not make it to the Eastern Conference Finals?<\/p>\n<p>To answer that question, review the Nets season and look ahead to the offseason, we bring you the Season 1 finale of the \u201cFullcourt on Flatbush\u201d podcast with Robin Lundberg and Nets great Kerry Kittles, featuring one of the voices of the Nets on YES Network, Ryan Ruocco. <\/p>\n<p>        <iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"Podcast\" width=\"100%\" height=\"188px\" src=\"https:\/\/embed.acast.com\/fullcourt-on-flatbush\/netsfallshortoftitleexpectationsfeat.ryanruocco?accentColor=2a2a2a&amp;bgColor=f6f6f6&amp;font-family=proxima%20nova&amp;logo=false&amp;secondaryColor=cc3333\" scrolling=\"no\" frameborder=\"0\" style=\"border:none;overflow:hidden;\"><br \/>\n        <\/iframe><\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Fullcourt_on_Flatbush_Podcast_with_Robin_Kerry_Jake\"><\/span><strong><span style=\"text-decoration: underline\">Fullcourt on Flatbush Podcast with Robin, Kerry &amp; Jake:<\/span><\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>FAILURE OR NO FAILURE: <\/strong>Robin does not believe this season with a failure for the Nets. Hard to ask them to win with just a healthy Kevin Durant and a banged-up Harden. With 1.5 stars, they still barely lost to a Bucks team they expected to go to seven games against even with everyone healthy.<\/li>\n<li><strong>WHAT WENT WRONG: <\/strong>Joe Harris was terrible for almost the entire playoffs. He missed wide-open 3-pointers in Game 7, where if he makes one the Nets are moving on. Jeff Green played banged up and didn\u2019t score. Harden was 2-for-12 from downtown. They were clearly gassed in OT. <\/li>\n<li><strong>FUTURE: <\/strong>Nets have a window of 2-5 years to win titles. They will probably be favorites going into next season. They could use a big man. They could also use a three-and-D type player. Harris can become trade bait now. <\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2 class=\"has-text-align-center\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"SUBSCRIBE_ON\"><\/span><strong><span style=\"text-decoration: underline\">SUBSCRIBE ON:<\/span><\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<div id=\"block-b1227b1e-0d39-41ce-b02b-0643c0338e03\" class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter is-resized\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/vip.nypost.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2020\/02\/buttonapple-1.png?w=300\" alt=\"Nets\" width=\"210\" height=\"49\"\/><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n<div id=\"block-0f19847d-cf46-4c1a-bf87-4506af48d39f\" class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter is-resized\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/vip.nypost.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2020\/02\/buttonspotify-1.png?w=300\" alt=\"Nets\" width=\"210\" height=\"49\"\/><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n<div id=\"block-282041bf-0358-4a06-846d-132b95e48fee\" class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter is-resized\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/vip.nypost.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2020\/02\/buttonstitcher-1.png?w=268\" alt=\"Nets\" width=\"203\" height=\"58\"\/><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n<h2 id=\"block-02b284b7-023b-406b-9c6e-4726cce43199\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Ryan_Ruocco_Interview_YES_Network_ESPN_play-by-play_announcer_%E2%80%9CR2C2_Podcast%E2%80%9D_Co-Host\"><\/span><strong><span style=\"text-decoration: underline\">Ryan Ruocco Interview<\/span>:<br \/>YES Network, ESPN play-by-play announcer, \u201cR2C2 Podcast\u201d Co-Host<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>SEASON: <\/strong>Played their heart out and should be proud of that.
