Nets beat Clippers
Kris Humphries scored a career-high 25 points and the New Jersey Nets avoided the worst 44-game start in NBA history with a 103-87 victory over the Los Angeles Clippers on Wednesday night.
The Nets (4-40) were tied with the 1993-94 Dallas Mavericks (3-40) for the NBA’s worst record after 43 games and all they had to do was lose another to secure another mark in this miserable season that opened with a league-record 18 straight losses.
It didn’t happen although the Nets managed to blow a 16-point first-half lead in the third quarter before winning for the first time in 2010.
