After struggling to contend with the speed of the Sacramento Kings in the first half, the Brooklyn Nets pushed the right buttons in the locker room and systematically demolished the Kings after the break en route to their largest win of the season, a 123-94 blowout Monday at Barclays Center.
The Nets (25-23) outscored the Kings (24-23) 68-34 in the second half, the third-largest second-half differential in franchise history and the fourth-largest differential in any half since the Nets came to the NBA in 1976.
If was their most lopsided half since outscoring the Washington Wizards 72-33 in the first half on Jan.
