Getting your Trinity Audio player ready...
Stephon Marbury had 34 points and 15 assists and Jamie Feick grabbed a career-high 25 rebounds as New Jersey blew a 17-point lead before beating Detroit.
Keith Van Horn added 28 points before fouling out late and Scott Burrell hit a go-ahead drive across the lane with 48.4 seconds to play as the Nets ended a three-game losing streak and handed the Pistons their second straight loss.
“The odds were we had to win one of these,” Nets forward Kendall Gill said after ending a streak in which the team lost three games by nine points. “This one was really important because we’re getting ready to go on the road.”
The Nets’ win wasn’t sealed until Lindsey Hunter missed a 16-foot jumper just before the buzzer and Feick got his final rebound.
