Whether they’re here to stay or not remains to be seen, but the Brooklyn Nets returned last night.
After their competitive, 13-10 team took a hiatus for roughly a month, their vacation days ran out yesterday ironically in sunny Los Angeles. With solid defense, rim pressure, transition opportunities, and efficient shooting from deep to the table, we got the Nets of old in a 130-112 win over the Lakers.
Cam Thomas poured in 33 points off the bench while shooting 13-of-18 from the field. It wasn’t home cooking, but certainly along those lines, as he torched the team he grew up rooting for.
