History repeats: Nets fall to Bulls in final minute, 111-107
History repeated itself and it wasn’t the Brooklyn way.
The Nets were defeated by the Bulls, 111-107 Saturday night at Barclays Center. With the loss, Brooklyn falls to 16-7 on the young season. They remain first in the East. Chicago is now 16-8.
Despite being down a game-high 11 points in the third, Chicago came storming back behind the play of DeMar DeRozan and entered the final two minutes of play trailing by three. Zach LaVine put Chicago up 105-100 off a midrange jumper and Bruce Brown followed it up on the other end but he failed to hit the huge free throw to cut the deficit to two points.
