On the heels of his worst game of the season, LeBron James will be in Brooklyn on Tuesday night to face the suddenly scorching Nets.
With LeBron and the improved Lakers in the New York area for the first time since King James landed in Los Angeles as a free agent over the summer, the Nets will be looking for their sixth consecutive win — following an eight-game skid — after erupting for a season-high 144 points in Sunday’s rout of the Hawks.
“Obviously, we know we’ve got the Lakers on Tuesday, and LeBron coming and all that,” veteran forward Ed Davis said after Sunday’s game.
