Nets fan poll shows skepticism about postseason chances

Summary

A recent poll by NetsDaily indicates that 48% of Brooklyn Nets fans do not believe the team will make the postseason for the upcoming 2026-27 NBA season. This polling follows a challenging 2025-26 season where the Nets recorded a 20-62 finish. While the team made several offseason acquisitions, including Julius Randle, Keon Ellis, and Mo Wagner, a substantial part of the fanbase is unconvinced of their postseason viability. In the same poll, 30% of respondents think the Nets will participate in the Eastern Conference play-in tournament, whereas only 4% predict a playoff berth.
