After overcoming an 11-game losing skid, Brooklyn had their chance to hit the All-Star break with a fresh three-game winning streak but in a contest that was determined by a game of runs, they fell to the Wizards in a frustrating note.
The Nets were defeated, 117-103, at Barclays Center Thursday night. With the defeat, Brooklyn hits the All-Star break with a 31-28 on the season and a 13-15 record at home.
In that game of runs which team can get stops matters. In the fourth, Brooklyn couldn’t make a stop down the stretch and in fact had defensive and other mental breakdowns throughout the contest.
