No D means no W for freefalling Nets
Brooklyn enters All-Star break on season-high seven-game slide

Now, they’re simply trying to avoid finishing with the NBA’s worst record for a second consecutive season.
Brooklyn stumbled into the All-Star break on a season-high seven-game losing streak following a 108-103 Valentine’s Day loss to the Indiana Pacers in front of 13,159 fans at Downtown’s Barclays Center.
