Relive the best of the Brooklyn Nets’ best playoff performances of the 2010s, as we look at the nostalgia of some of the best players’ performances.

Since their move to Brooklyn in 2013, the Brooklyn Nets have made the playoffs four out of possible eight seasons. Only once did they make it out of the first round (where they promptly lost), giving them a series win-loss record of 1-4. They’ve played in 30 games and won 11 of those contests, good for a win percentage of .366%.

Relocation logistics aside, the generation of Net fans born from 1997-2003 did not experience the same playoff ecstasy as the one from 1991-1996. While not stocked with the same surprising finals appearances or six-year playoff streak (2002-2007) as their millennial counterparts, the Gen Z-ers still have a handful of memorable experiences they can call their own. While prolonged success (probably) creates the best memories, snapshot moments can still provide powerful nostalgia.

Thus, the top 10 Net playoff performances from those 30 games. This list is only based loosely on statistics, as nostalgia is the primary barometer.
