The Brooklyn Nets ended a three-game winning streak of the Los Angeles Clippers by taking them down 124-120. Kevin Durant, James Harden and Kyrie Irving were able to show their offensive skills in a high scoring game.
Kawhi Leonard, who had 33 points for the Clippers, talked about what led to his team losing the game. He pointed at fouling Brooklyn’s jump shots that gave the Nets opportunities to score easy points.
“We had some bad mistakes out there. Fouling shooters, just giving them points. They’re already great scorers. So we just gotta keep letting them be great and not make it easy on them by fouling on jump shots,” Leonard said postgame.
With this win, the Nets climbed even higher in the Eastern Conference. They are now in the second place, just behind the Philadelphia 76ers. On the other hand, the Clippers remained second in the West despite the loss.
