THE Brooklyn nets (26-40, 11th in the Eastern Conference) visit Gainbridge Fieldhouse on Saturday to take on the Indiana Pacers (37-30, sixth) for the first of three meetings this season and if you’re wondering how to watch all the action live, you you have arrived at the right place!
The Nets come into this game after a 114-106 loss to the Orlando Magic on Wednesday in which guard Cam Thomas led Brooklyn in scoring (21 points) and rebounds (eight rebounds). While the Nets eventually recovered enough to make the game more interesting, the Magic’s 33-16 first quarter essentially had Brooklyn fighting an uphill battle the entire game.
The Pacers come into this game coming off a 132-129 overtime loss to the Chicago Bulls on Wednesday in which there were just 12 lead changes in the fourth quarter alone thanks to Chicago’s DeMar DeRozan scoring 46 points in the competition. Indiana’s Myles Turner led the team with 27 points, including five three-pointers.
