Joe Johnson has said that the Brooklyn Nets have turned their season around since New Year.
The Nets, who are unbeaten at home in 14 games, beat the Houston Rockets 105-96 last night to clinch their first playoff berth in 11 years.
Johnson, who scored 32 points during the victory, told reporters: "Honestly, I couldn't even see it. I kept saying to myself eventually this is going to turn around, things are going to turn for us.
"Eventually it did starting the New Year. We were a different team, our mindset was different and the way we played was different."
The Nets face the New York Knicks at Madison Square Garden later today.
