Nets’ ‘Mr. Consistency’ hits hallowed mark
Lopez passes Williams as Nets’ leading scorer in loss to Boston
Brook Lopez has been the only consistent thing about the Nets during their tenure here in Downtown Brooklyn, as well as the better part of the last decade.
The 7-foot center was rewarded for his efforts in the face of almost constant turbulence and uncertainty Monday night, becoming the Nets’ all-time leading scorer during Brooklyn’s 114-105 loss in Boston in front of a sellout crowd of 18,624 at TD Garden.
Lopez, the Nets’ first-round pick in the 2008 NBA Draft, has played for nine different head coaches, hit the hardwood in three separate arenas and been the subject of trade rumors almost annually during his nine seasons with the Nets.
