Well… that one probably won’t end up on ESPN Classic. It took the Brooklyn Nets four quarters and overtime period to do it, but hey, they did it. Use whatever cliché you’d like.. grit, tenacity, a resolute mentality.. the Nets took down the 6-21 Pelicans and improved to 15-12 on the season.
And I hated every single second of it. Man, oh man, was that one a stinker!
Still though, even amidst what I think was supposed to be a basketball game and not just two groups of professionals *blindly* tossing a circular object at a round hemispherical target, there are some defined heroes among men.
