Amid chants of “Beat the Heat!” the Nets finally snapped their season-worst seven-game losing skid. And they did it by overcoming their maddening fourth-quarter mental block at the same time, rallying in the final minutes for a 117-113 win over Miami at Barclays Center.
Spencer Dinwiddie had 26 points and a career-high 14 assists. Rodions Kurucs, not just back the rotation but also returned to the starting lineup, added 19 points and some vital energy. But it was a late fight that won it.
The Nets, trailing 109-100 with 5:09 left to play, mounted a 14-2 run to turn a nine-point deficit into a three-point lead the made hold up.
