All it took for the Nets to snap their embarrassing 11-game losing streak was a game against another team that barely knows each other.
As has become their custom, the Nets did not always make it easy on themselves. They were able to stay out of their own way enough to scratch together a 109-85 win over the visiting Sacramento Kings, though.
Monday night’s showdown at Barclays Center hosted two teams that look very different than they did a week ago. On the Nets’ side, newcomers Andre Drummond and Seth Curry both got a start in their Brooklyn debut. Drummond finished with 11 points and nine rebounds in 24 minutes while Curry showcased the type of quick-heating offense that will make him a lifesaver for this floundering team. The younger Curry brother went for 23 points on 10-of-18 shooting (3-of-8 from deep) in his first game with the Nets.
