Epic collapse costs Nets third straight win
Charlotte ends Brooklyn’s streak with 111-105 victory at Barclays
After using a pair of lock-down, fourth-quarter efforts to put together their first back-to-back wins in two months, the Brooklyn Nets needed yet another Wednesday night to make it three victories in a row for the first time this season.
They didn’t come close to getting it.
Head coach Kenny Atkinson’s crew surrendered 36 points during the final 12 minutes, including a game-ending 18-2 run, as Brooklyn suffered a hard-to-swallow 111-105 loss to the visiting Charlotte Hornets in front of 10,231 diehards who braved a snow storm to witness this epic collapse.
