When the game mattered most, the Brooklyn Nets superstar duo folded and the Boston Celtics dominated the fourth quarter to seal a 2-0 first-round series lead.
After leading by 17 points and entering the fourth quarter with a five-point lead, the Nets were utterly dominated —- and outcoached on both ends of the floor as Steve Nash’s former assistant, Ime Udoka, made adjustments that won his team the game.
In the end, after being outscored 29-17 in the fourth, Brooklyn was beaten by Boston, 114-107. With the defeat, the Nets head back to Brooklyn Saturday in a dangerous 2-0 hole.
