The Pistons won in Brooklyn for the first time in nearly five years, beating the Nets on Thursday night.
Kyrie Irving scored 40 points for the Nets, tying his career high and the Nets NBA record with five straight games of 30 or more. Nic Claxton added a career-best 27 and Edmond Sumner had 24.
"They have a tendency to come out in the third quarter and try to win that. We came out and we were flat," Irving said."When you do that and you are reacting to everything, every possession, it makes it difficult."The Pistons closed well in the third, pushing a five-point lead with 2 1/2 minutes to play into a 101-90 advantage headed to the fourth. Bey scored 15 points on 6-for-7 shooting in the period.
