Regular Season Round 29: Philadelph.76 - Brooklyn N. 91-99
Date: November 26, 2014
Once again, it was not the Philadelphia 76ers' night. Not even on a night when they erased a deficit that reached 20 in the first half and 17 in the third quarter. Or a night when they held a rare fourth-quarter lead. Once again they lost Wednesday night, this time 99-91 to the Brooklyn Nets, to fall to 0-15 and match the worst start in franchise history. Two Nets reserves, guard Alan Anderson and forward Mirza Teletovic, combined for 16 fourth-quarter points, and veteran forward Kevin Garnett added a critical free throw and basket in the final 1:13. Anderson, who scored 10 of his 12 points in the final period, broke the night's last tie, at 82-82, on a three-point play with 6:14 left. Teletovic, who notched six of his nine points in the fourth, tacked on three free throws as the Nets pushed the lead to 90-83 with 2:45 remaining. Philadelphia answered with six consecutive points, four of those by guard Tony Wroten, to cut the gap to one, but Garnett was fouled by guard Michael Carter-Williams while jostling for rebounding position with 1:13 left. Garnett made the second of two foul shots, and after a Sixers turnover, he nailed a jumper to make it 93-89 with 32.8 seconds to play. Guard/forward Joe Johnson scored 21 points to lead Brooklyn, which had lost six of its previous seven. Center Brook Lopez added 19, and guard Deron Williams contributed 17 points, 10 assists and eight rebounds. Wroten had 18 points and 10 assists for the Sixers, who matched the 0-15 start of the 1972-73 team. That club finished 9-73, the worst full-season mark in league history. The worst start in NBA history was 0-18 by the 2009-10 Nets, then based in New Jersey. That club finished 12-70. Rookie guard/forward K.J. McDaniels also had 18 points for Philadelphia, the highest total in his 15-game-old career. Aided by 7-for-23 Philadelphia shooting and eight Sixers turnovers, the Nets breezed to a 39-19 lead three minutes into the second quarter. Williams had 11 of those points, Johnson and Lopez nine each for Brooklyn, which shot 70.6 percent in the first quarter, equaling its season high for any period. The Sixers cut the gap to 49-41 by halftime, as center Henry Sims crammed eight points into the final 5:16 of the second quarter. Lopez finished the half with 13 points, and Williams had 11. Sims and forward Luc Mbah a Moute had eight each to lead Philadelphia. Brooklyn pushed out to a 58-41 lead behind five points from Johnson early in the third quarter, but the Sixers went on a 21-5 run spanning the third and fourth quarters. Center/forward Nerlens Noel capped it with a pair of dunks, the second coming on a pick-and-roll feed from Carter-Williams with 10:25 left, giving Philadelphia a 74-72 lead. Courtesy of: wsbt.com
