Star-Struck: Nets’ five-game winning streak ends in Los Angeles
For the first time in 55 years, a Brooklyn pro sports franchise traveled to Los Angeles on Tuesday night.
Only this time, they’ll be coming home, albeit after a very tough loss.
Deron Williams missed a potential game-tying 3-pointer with four seconds remaining as Kobe Bryant and the Lakers held off the Nets for a 95-90 victory that ended Brooklyn’s season-high five-game winning streak in Mike D’Antoni’s debut on the bench for Los Angeles.
