It’s an early-evening start on the West Coast Saturday night for the Brooklyn Nets, who take on the two-time defending champion Golden State Warriors at Oracle Arena in Oakland, Calif., for an 8:30 p.m. Eastern tip off.
That’s a 5:30 local start for a game that sees the teams coming in from the exact opposite directions they did for their Oct. 28 matchup in Brooklyn.
The Nets (6-6) have won three straight games, including a last-second victory Friday night against the Denver Nuggets on the road, while the Warriors (10-2) come in off their first home-court loss of the season.
