Nets Pound Spurs In Popovich’s Return To The Bench

Error 0:

NEW YORK (AP) — Caris LeVert and the Nets treated Dr. J to a show in his first game in Brooklyn.

Gregg Popovich sure didn’t enjoy it after reclaiming his seat on the Spurs bench.

LeVert had 27 points, 11 rebounds and 10 assists and the Nets pounded San Antonio 139-120 on Friday night in Popovich’s return from a one-game absence.

With Julius Erving attending one of their games for the first time since they moved to Brooklyn in 2012, the Nets rang up 75 points in the first half, put eight players in double figures and led by as much as 33 in front of one of the greatest players in franchise history.
