Nets forward Trevor Booker throws down a dunk in the second half Friday of a 108-99 loss to the Heat.
The Heat sauntered into Barclays Center on Friday night as the NBA’s hottest team. The Nets had the league’s longest losing streak and worst record. The result was as predictable as it was painful.
For the third time in as many meetings, the Nets built a double-digit lead on Miami only to blow it. This time, a third-quarter drought squandered the lead and a fourth-quarter funk lost the game, 108-99, in front of 15,382 fans.
The Nets saw their losing streak hit 12 games, the longest in the NBA this season.
