The dog days of the 2015-2016 NBA season are officially upon us, and a handful of the league’s teams have been in those dog days for quite some time. Each and every week, we check in with a look at the worst teams in the association, and even if they don’t have the rights to their own lottery pick, they are included in the “tank rankings”.

Simply put, here are the five worst teams in the NBA at this juncture.

team. 147. <p>It was a super “status quo” week for the Nets. Brooklyn’s lone win came at the expensive of the grease fire that is the Phoenix Suns, and while the team competed in its two losses (home against Charlotte and at Portland), they were defeats nonetheless.</p> <p>Brooklyn is competing much more than most teams on this list can claim, and they should be given credit for that. At the same time, the Nets put themselves in this horrid position and, well, they don’t even have a draft pick to fall back on. Things are going well.</p>. (16-42). Previous: . Brooklyn Nets. 5

Next: No. 4-3
