Nets fall to Portland after long flight
Harden sits with knee injury in 114-108 loss to Blazers
Steve Nash was noticeably baffled Sunday afternoon at Downtown’s Barclays Center when he was asked about the Nets’ quick turnaround following their thrilling overtime victory over the San Antonio Spurs.
“I can’t remember all the back-to-backs I ever played in, but I don’t remember any six-hour flights (to Portland) in between a back-to-back and three-hour time zones and all that stuff,” the Brooklyn Nets’ head coach noted.
“So it’s different, but we’ve got to take it as an opportunity, an opportunity to succeed under adversity.”
