The Nets just finished a winning road trip, but just missed out on a great one. Brooklyn seemed to run out of gas in a 121-107 loss to the Thunder.
OKLAHOMA CITY — The Nets just completed a winning road trip, but they missed out on a great one.
“They play good together,” Dorian Finney-Smith had warned beforehand of the Thunder. “Mark [Daigneault] got them playing very well. They space out and attack, they’ve got the most field goals in the paint, they play good in transition. They’re a good team. “We want to conclude the trip in the right way, trying to get a win,” Nets coach Jacque Vaughn said before the game. “A lot of problems they present. It starts with [Gilgeous-Alexander] and his ability to get buckets, make shots. To have a guy score 30 and not make a 3 is pretty impressive to show how they play: Very determined to get to the paint, get to their spots.
Dinwiddie’s free throws padded the Nets’ cushion with 1:23 left in the half, and they still led by 10 going into the break. But after holding the Thunder to 2-for-13 shooting from deep in the first half, that changed in the second.NBAE via Getty Images
