Nets overcome sluggish start to power past Pistons

After a lengthy homestand in which the Nets went 4-2, Brooklyn kicked off their six-game road trip with a visit to Little Ceasars Arena for a rematch with the Detroit Pistons. It wasn’t pretty for most of the game but the Nets were able to outlast the young gun Pistons for a 96-90 win to push their winning streak to a modest four games.

Kevin Durant (20 points, 10 rebounds, 5 assists) led the charge for Brooklyn Friday night, however, it didn’t start off so hot for Durant, or anyone for that matter. The first half for both teams was an offensive nightmare.
