Nets rally, but can’t close out Raptors
Suffer second straight heartbreaking loss at Barclays Center
The Brooklyn Nets are getting the Rodney Dangerfield treatment.
Undermanned, undersized and, by their own assertion, receiving no respect from the officials, the Nets once again found themselves on the brink of a breakthrough victory Monday night, only to have it slip through their fingers.
Spencer Dinwiddie scored 21 of his career-high 31 points during the fourth quarter and overtime, but didn’t get a key foul call in the waning seconds of the extra session as Brooklyn endured a brutal 114-113 loss to the Toronto Raptors in front of 13,681 fans at Downtown’s Barclays Center.
