New Year New Nets? Maybe. Us Nets fans can only hope so. In the second quarter it seemed like another collapse. Getting down by as much as 16.
They came out pretty strong in the second half. Then with 9 secs left in the third OKC went up 16. Pierce hit a jumper with 0.9 left to pull within 14. Williams picked off the inbounds pass and launched and buried a three to beat the buzzer.
The Nets had one amazing fourth quarter. They were led by their 98 million dollar man Deron Williams tonight. 29 points (6/9 from three) 5 steals. Paul Pierce had a 5-0 stretch to pull Nets within one.
Then off a Durant turnover D Will buried a three to give Brooklyn the lead. They kept the lead until Serge Ibaka tied it with 5.5 to go.
That left the Nets with the chance to win. Joe Johnson inbounds it to KG gets it right back does a couple crossovers and buries the fall away jumper at the buzzer over Serge Ibaka!
Fun fact: The Nets are undefeated in 2014.
