The Nets have lost 11 of their past 13 games and they need their star point guard back in order to make a run for a playoff spot in the weak Eastern Conference. The table below shows that Williams produces the best differential among point guards on the Nets.
From the archive. The date on this note is 29 January 2015, which is the day it was written rather than the day it was last touched — nobody has touched it. It reads like something posted in a hurry because that is what it was.
Filed to Nets. Anything that followed from this — and with a story of this kind something usually did — was filed to the same desk, which is why the desk reads better than the note.
It is one of 95 pieces the desk filed across 2014-15. The season pages in the archive put them back in order, which is the order they were written to be read in.
Why keep it at all, given the length. Because the address still receives readers — out of a search, out of a link in somebody else’s writing, out of a bookmark — and answering them with a redirect to the front page is worse than answering them with the short thing they actually asked for. Every address the old site had was kept when this one was re-set.
