The eyes of most basketball fans were likely focused on the collegiate level tonight, but the Brooklyn Nets and Indiana Pacers sure gave us something to watch anyway. However, it didn’t look like it would be that way early on.
For one, game No. 69 for Brooklyn began in a familiar fashion, with two Jordi-isms coming less than two minutes into the game, those being a prompt introduction to the 3-ball and a green light special. The Nets’ first four shots came from beyond the arc. Fernández also challenged what could have only been the game’s third or fourth whistle, reversing an early out-of-bounds call.
