Worst loss of the season? Without Kevin Durant, Nets lose to Rockets

After a great win over the Mavericks on Tuesday night, the Brooklyn Nets followed that up by losing a tough one to the Houston Rockets. Sure, the Nets were without Kevin Durant and LaMarcus Aldridge who rested on the second half of the back-to-back, but this still felt like one they should have pulled out. James Harden went back to Houston and played a game much like he used to in his days with the Rockets. He basically needed to considering the Nets’ personnel for the game.  The Nets went with a new starting lineup, but leaned into the rookies as well with Cam Thomas and David Duke Jr. getting extended run. But it wasn’t enough and the Nets came up short.  Subscribe to the Locked on Nets YouTube Channel Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices
