1985–86 New Jersey Nets season

The 1985–86 New Jersey Nets season was the Nets' tenth season in the NBA.[1] After starting the first half of the season strong with a 23–14 record, the Nets lost star Micheal Ray Richardson due to a lifetime ban from the NBA due to repeated drug offenses and Darryl Dawkins to injuries, and then stumbled and went 16–29, finishing with a 39–43 record and barely making it into the playoffs.
