LOS ANGELES — Three games, three losses. And the Nets’ season-long seven-game road trip is already starting to look like the nightmare coach Kenny Atkinson long feared it could be.

The Nets squandered a big lead, then rallied in the last minute before falling 119-116 to the Clippers on Lou Williams’ last-second dagger.

Nets owner Mikhail Prokhorov was seated near courtside in the Staples Center crowd of 17,247, only the second road game he has come to. And he probably didn’t enjoy what he saw.
