Kyrie plays hookey, Nets’ 3-point barrage falls short
“Pleased to meet you, hope you guess my name;
But what’s puzzlin’ you is the nature of my game.”
While being interviewed after Q1 of last night’s nationally televised encounter, Brooklyn head coach Kenny Atkinson was unbothered by his squad’s lousy 2-for-11 shooting from three-point range … and it was not simply “coach-speak.” Indeed, his crew went on to attempt another 45 treys over the game’s final 36 minutes – an extraordinary 68 percent of their 66 total FGA’s during that span – finding bottom on 19 of them, a more than respectable .422 rate of success.
