Nets host Knicks after L.A. meltdown
Brooklyn looking to rebound from sad finish vs Clippers
The Nets appeared poised to complete an impressive sweep in Los Angeles Sunday afternoon.
Instead, they dragged themselves back to Brooklyn to host the East River rival Knicks Tuesday following one of their most embarrassing losses of the season.
“We were stuck, didn’t know what to do or how to break it,” Nets forward Mikal Bridges ceded after he and his teammates squandered an 18-point lead before absorbing a hard-to-swallow 125-114 defeat to the Clippers in front of 19,370 fans at crypto.com Arena.
