It was all Nets and a bonafide Brooklyn blowout Thursday night.
Without James Harden and Blake Griffin, the Nets drew on LaMarcus Aldridge and he shined in his Nets debut as Brooklyn defeated Charlotte, 111-89. With the win, the Nets remain on top of the East with a 34-15 record and have now won 20 of their last 23 games and seven home wins in a row. Nets are now 20-6 at Barclays Center for the season.
“It was a great win. One of the best starts maybe since before the break so that was positive. It’s a very good team. We obviously shot the ball well but we defended,” Steve Nash said postgame. “We got into people and our communication was great, we rebounded and we took care of business. Proud of the guys. That was a tough game back-to-back - a tough little stretch here and we had a good week.”
