What. A. Game.
The Brooklyn Nets improved 15-6 on the season after a nailbiter against the crosstown rival New York Knicks. After a tough loss against the Phoenix Suns, the Nets rebounded in a big way and have won 5 of their last 6 games.
James Harden led the way with 34 points on 11-of-20 shooting, while also tacking on 10 rebounds and 8 assists. The Beard did much of his damage in the first half with 28 points. His co-star, Kevin Durant, carried the Nets home by scoring 11 points down the stretch even amidst a performance that wasn’t one of his best (9-of-23 from the field).
