Nets ‘bond’ as All-Star break approaches
Second-half schedule includes 17 games at Barclays
James Harden, Kyrie Irving and Kevin Durant are doubtlessly looking forward to representing Brooklyn at the NBA All-Star Game in Atlanta on March 7.
But it’s what comes after the league’s annual midseason showcase that will mean the most to the Nets’ Big Three and their fans, who finally were allowed to return to Downtown’s Barclays Center Tuesday night for the first time in almost a year.
Though there were only 324 fans permitted in the building for Brooklyn’s season-high seventh straight win, a 127-118 triumph over the Sacramento Kings, there may be more in-person witnesses to what is shaping up as one of the greatest seasons in franchise history following the All-Star break.
