The Nets came in on the second half of the back-to-back against the Cleveland Cavaliers and came away with the win. It shouldn’t have been this hard considering the Cavs were really working with a depleted roster. The Nets jumped out to a solid halftime lead but a run in the third quarter left this game closer than it should have been. Patty Mills and LaMarcus Aldridge were the story for Brooklyn with Mills dropping in 21 points and Aldridge adding 24 off the bench. Getting secondary scoring from players beyond James Harden and Kevin Durant is the key and they needed it from these two tonight.
