Assessment

I received a request from User:JCRules at my talk page to assess this article.

The article is refreshingly well sourced, and has a defined structure. Where the article can be improved is at 2013–14_Brooklyn_Nets_season#Regular_season, which is exhaustive prose to repeat the game-by-game scores already in table format at 2013–14_Brooklyn_Nets_season#Regular_season_2. I would recommend summarizing the season at a slightly higher level beyond individual game scores. Spend more time discussing trends during the season that are not evident from looking at game logs or box scores. For example, I remember the slow start to the season and the growing pains and criticism of Kidd. Then there was the late season turnaround. What about Kidd's history with the franchise, and coaching immediately after retiring as a player? The Celtics trade and Collins signing could be fleshed out also. I'm sure sources that review the season would have more key highlights. Based on the assessment criteria, I would give it a C. However, addressing the prose summary of the season would take it to a B with potential for GA.—Bagumba (talk) 17:21, 27 June 2014 (UTC)[reply]
