BROOKLYN, N.Y. — Tank or no tank, it’s becoming an embarrassment.
The Nets hadn’t won a game at home in over a month entering Wednesday, dating back to November 4 when they defeated the Philadelphia 76ers by 25. It looked like the script might finally change.
They led by 23 in the third quarter and 19 with 8:35 left in the fourth. That’s when Paul George and the Thunder woke up. George went onto score 25 of his 47 points in the fourth, capped off with a game-winning three-pointer with 3.
