Reggie Evans led the Nets in the first half with eight points and 10 rebounds, a first half in which the team as a whole played poorly
I feel like I say this a lot about the games in which the Nets play bad teams, but tonight was ugly yet turned into a win for Brooklyn. The first half was pretty atrocious, especially the second quarter in which the reserves let the starters down yet again. However, rebounding from a double-digit second quarter deficit, the Nets came back with a fury after halftime to snatch the advantage back from the hapless Pistons, a team Brooklyn (going back to the New Jersey days of course) hadn't beaten on the road in 10 tries.
As they did unsuccessfully last night against the Lakers, the Nets focused their last game offensive efforts in Brook Lopez who was able to outplay Greg Monroe down the stretch to help hold the lead. Clearly, this team is more effective in comebacks when working inside-out (starting the ball in the post and k...

Even after 14 All-Star seasons, Kobe Bryant has been called just about everything while visiting an NBA opponent's building. But one thing he is usually never called outside the comfy confines of Staple Center is, "M-V-P!."

It's not often you see NBA players air ball jump shots unless the shot gets tipped. Mirza Teletovic of the Brooklyn Nets accomplished this feat last night.....three consecutive times.
Although Mirza only averages about eight minutes and 3.4 points a game, he still needs to shoot better than this. I would almost have to compare this to a hat trick in soccer or hockey...

After opening 2013 with their best stretch of the season, the Brooklyn Nets have fallen way off that pace lately.

The Nets (28-20) were riding high after winning 10 of 11 last month, but things began to turn with...
