With a loss to the Dallas Mavericks on December 2, 2009, the Nets became the first team in NBA history to start the season 0–18.[1] The Nets got their first win of the season at home against the Charlotte Bobcats on December 4, 2009.[2] With a loss to the Houston Rockets on December 26, 2009, the Nets became the sixth team in NBA history to lose 28 of its first 30 games, tying the worst 30-game record in NBA history. With a loss to the Utah Jazz on January 23, 2010, the Nets became the third team in NBA history to lose 40 of its first 43 games, tying the worst three-win record in NBA history. On February 6, the Nets lost to the Detroit Pistons, falling to 4–46 and tying the record for worst 50-game record in the history of the three major sports (NBA, MLB, NHL) that play seasons that long.

Milestones[]

Injuries and surgeries[]

Devin Harris missed 10 games at the beginning of November due to a groin strain before returning on November 21 against the New York Knicks.[6]

In addition, at one point the entire starting lineup, with the exception of center Brook Lopez, was injured. For a considerable portion of the season the Nets were forced to play extremely short-handed, and multiple times were able to dress only the league-minimum seven players. This was a major contributor to the poor start the Nets had for the season, in addition to well-respected Head Coach Lawrence Frank being fired and replaced by Nets GM/rookie head coach Kiki Vandeweghe.
