The Nets lose again… and Kyrie Irving scores just FOUR POINTS

The Brooklyn Nets ended a grueling day with a loss, losing 108-99 to the Chicago Bulls just hours after the resignation of coach Steve Nash, while under fire star Kyrie Irving scored just four points throughout the game.

It means the Nets are now 2-6 as the season hit a new low on Tuesday night. Jacque Vaughn began his second stint coaching the team, but it is expected to be a short tenure after reports surfaced of Brooklyn appointing former Nets assistant and former Celtics head coach Ime Udoka as the next bench boss.

Zach LaVine scored 20 of his season-high 29 points in the fourth quarter as the Chicago Bulls rallied for a win over the struggling Nets in New York.

LaVine scored eight straight runs on a 10-0 run that lasted 1:45 and gave the Bulls a 101-90 lead. He hit a 10-footer into the lane, then connected with two long three-pointers before Nikola Vucevic hooked up for an 11-point lead with 4:57 left.

LaVine then hit another 3-pointer for a 106-94 lead with 2:51 to go, and Vucevic capped off the comeback with a putback dunk to make it 108-97 with 49.1 seconds left.

LaVine made 10 of 21 shots, including 6 of 10 in the fourth when the Bulls defeated the Nets 31-19.

DeMar DeRozan added 20 points for the Bulls, who shot 52.4 percent in fourth and 43.8 percent overall. Ayo Dosunmu contributed 17, former Net Goran Dragic chipped 15 and Patrick Williams finished with 12. Vucevic added seven points and 15 rebounds.

Brooklyn’s Kevin Durant led all scorers with 32 points to go, nine rebounds and six assists. Royce O’Neale added 20 points for the Nets, who shot 48 percent.

Irving, embroiled in controversy after promoting a movie about a book deemed “toxic anti-Semitic” on social media, was awarded four points on 2-of-12 shots and only scored early in the fourth quarter.

Before the contest, Shaquille O’Neal called Irving ‘an idiot’ for his controversial tweet

Before the match, Shaquille O’Neal called Irving “an idiot” on TNT’s coverage. Irving deleted the tweet this week after initially trying to stand his ground in a conversation with a reporter.

After taking a 58-52 lead at halftime, Brooklyn held onto a 76-65 lead over Yuta Wantabe’s substitution with four minutes left in the third. Chicago defeated the Nets 12-4 in the last 3:59 to come in 80-77 off a DeRozan jumper on the horn.

Chicago never got behind after Alex Caruso’s corner 3-pointer made it 89-88 with 7:52 left. Moments after Irving hit a fadeaway to pull Brooklyn in 91-90 with 7:01 left, LaVine began his binge eating.
