1992–93 New Jersey Nets season

(Redirected from 1992-93 New Jersey Nets season)

The 1992–93 New Jersey Nets season was the Nets' 26th season in the National Basketball Association, and 17th season in East Rutherford, New Jersey.[1] During the off-season, the Nets hired Chuck Daly as head coach; Daly led the Detroit Pistons to two straight championships in 1989 and 1990.[2][3][4][5] The team also acquired Rumeal Robinson from the Atlanta Hawks,[6][7][8] acquired Jayson Williams from the Philadelphia 76ers,[9][10][11] and signed free agents Chucky Brown and Rick Mahorn.[12][13][14] Under Daly, the Nets continued to improve holding a 30–21 record at the All-Star break.[15] However, they would lose second-year star Kenny Anderson for the remainder of the season to a wrist injury after 55 games.[16][17][18] At midseason, the Nets signed free agents, former All-Star guard Maurice Cheeks,[19][20][21] and former All-Star forward Bernard King.[22][23][24] Despite losing ten of their final eleven games, the team finished third in the Atlantic Division with a 43–39 record.[25]

Dražen Petrović and Derrick Coleman were both selected to the All-NBA Third Team, as Petrović led the team in scoring averaging 22.3 points per game, and Coleman averaged 20.7 points, 11.2 rebounds and 1.7 blocks per game. In addition, Anderson became the team's starting point guard, as he provided the team with 16.9 points, 8.2 assists and 1.7 steals per game, and finished in third place in Most Improved Player voting,[26][27][28] while Chris Morris contributed 14.1 points, 5.9 rebounds and 1.9 steals per game, and Sam Bowie provided with 9.1 points, 7.0 rebounds and 1.6 blocks per game.[29] Daly finished in fifth place in Coach of the Year voting.[30][31][32] The club qualified for the playoffs, but were eliminated in the Eastern Conference First Round by the Cleveland Cavaliers in five games.[33][34][35][36]

Following the season, tragedy struck as Petrović was killed in a car accident in Germany at the age of 28 on June 7, 1993; Petrović was a passenger in a car driven by his girlfriend, which lost control and crashed head-on into a truck on a rain-drenched highway near Munich, Germany. His girlfriend, Klara Szalantzy, 23, and another passenger, Hilal Haene, 53, were both seriously injured. Shortly before his death, Petrović last played for the Croatian national basketball team in the European Championships in Wroclaw, Poland.[37][38][39][40][41] The Nets retired his #3 jersey, as Petrović would later on be inducted into the Basketball Hall of Fame posthumously.

Also following the season, Bowie was traded to the Los Angeles Lakers,[42][43][44] while Chris Dudley signed as a free agent with the Portland Trail Blazers,[45][46] Brown signed with the Dallas Mavericks, and King and Cheeks both retired.
