After being victims of a back-to-back Monday night vs the Chicago Bulls, the Brooklyn Nets had no sympathy for the Indiana Pacers, who were cast into that role last night at the Barclays Center.
While they didn’t have rest, the Pacers did have desperation on their side, having lost three in a row and seven straight on the road, sporting a 9-13 record, and by consequence, a rather weak case that their run to the Eastern Conference Finals last year was anything other than Fugazi.
The Nets couldn’t have come into this one in a more opposite position.
