The Nets defeated Detroit Pistons 124-121 on Monday, December 19 and their head coach Jacque Vaughn spoke on how the Nets were able to come back to win this game.

 

“Pretty unhappy with ourselves at halftime. Just overall concentration level which we talked about before the game," Vaughn said. 

 

"So, it wasn’t where it needed to be. Luckily, we had another half to play. Another third quarter by that group, 25 points in the third, 25 points in the fourth. 

 

"So, to be able to score 50 points in the half. Turned our concentration level up, our want up, need to, all of the above to get the win”.
