The new-look Nets are starting to figure out how to play together. But they fell to a team that already knows how to win together.
Rebuilding Brooklyn looked good in stretches, but the white-hot Bucks were great when it counted. The Nets took a big lead but couldn’t hold onto it, losing 118-104 to Giannis Antetokounmpo & Co. before a sell-out crowd of 17,732 at Barclays Center.
Brooklyn built a 15-point cushion, and it was still double figures almost midway through the third quarter. And his 12-foot fadeaway capped the run, and put the Nets in a 93-85 hole just 30 seconds into the fourth quarter.He’s the centerpiece of the Durant return, a young standout Milwaukee coach Mike Budenholzer recalls well from the Bucks’ NBA Finals matchup against the Suns.
Bridges had a team-high 31 points, including 11 quick points to spot the Nets to an early 28-13 lead.
