That was disappointing. The Brooklyn Nets had the game in hand late against the Miami Heat, but Brooklyn let go of the rope and wound up losing a winnable game on Sunday afternoon. After this, they’re heading up to Charlotte to face the Hornets on Friday before coming back home for another Sunday matinee.
Kyrie Irving won’t be available for either game, meaning he’s missed half the Nets games so far.
The opponent tonight will be the Atlanta Hawks. It’s been a ROUGH year for Lloyd Pierce’s guys, but maybe things are starting to get better.
