The 2013–14 Brooklyn Nets season was 47th season of the franchise, its 38th in the National Basketball Association (NBA), and its second season playing in the New York City borough of Brooklyn.

After making the playoffs for the first time in six years during the 2012–13 season, the Nets had a busy off-season which featured the hiring of Jason Kidd (who played for the then-New Jersey Nets from 2001 to 2008 and led the Nets to back-to-back NBA Finals in 2002 and 2003) as the head coach.[1] The Nets also traded Gerald Wallace, Kris Humphries, and three future draft picks to the Celtics for all-stars Kevin Garnett and Paul Pierce, along with Jason Terry.[2] These transactions led to the Nets having the largest payroll in the NBA, and high expectations heading into the season. The Nets would go on to upset the Toronto Raptors in seven games in the first round of the playoffs. However, in the Semifinals, the Nets would go on to lose to the two-time defending NBA champion and eventual Eastern Conference champion Miami Heat in five games despite sweeping the Heat, 4 games to 0, in the regular season.

Following the season, Pierce signed with the Washington Wizards.

Playoffs

[edit]

First round

[edit]
Game 2 of the First Round against the Toronto Raptors.

For the Nets, the 2014 NBA Playoffs began against division-rival Toronto Raptors. The series began on April 19, with the Nets winning Game 1, 94–87.[91] The Raptors responded to the loss with a 100–95 win in Game 2 to even the series 1–1.[92] To take the series lead once more, the Nets came up with a 102–98 victory in Game 3.[93] In Game 4, the Raptors evened the series 2–2, as the Nets lost 79–87.[94] The Nets trailed the series for the first time after a Game 5 loss, despite outscoring the Raptors by 20 points in the fourth quarter.[95] After their disappointing loss in Game 5, the Nets fought for their season as they blew-out the Raptors in Game 6 with a 97–83 victory.[96] The Nets moved on to the conference semifinals with a late game block by Paul Pierce against Raptors' guard Kyle Lowry for a 104–103 victory in the final Game 7.[97]

Conference semifinals

[edit]
The Nets' season would end in a 1–4 series loss to the Miami Heat.

Going on to the conference semifinals, the Nets were going to meet the Miami Heat, the very team that they had swept in the regular season.[84] In Game 1, the Nets had lost in a 21-point blowout.[98] The Nets would lose Game 2, 82–94.[99] Knowing they would go 0–3 in the series if they lose, the Nets relied on the three-point field goal to defeat the Heat.[100] In Game 4, the Nets fell 1–3 in the series by losing by six points in a game where LeBron James scored a then playoff career-high 49 points.[101] With the opportunity to take Game 5 to overtime, when the Nets were trailing the series 1–3, Joe Johnson had failed to attempt a game-tying shot, losing 96–94, thus ending their 2013–14 season.[102]
