Sixers Comeback Bid Falls Short Vs. Nets

The Brooklyn Nets Shaun Livingston stole a chance for the Sixers to steal a win in New York Monday night, literally.

With 5.8 seconds left in the fourth quarter, Livingston corralled his seventh steal of the night to secure a 108-102 victory over the 76ers, who had climbed out of a tough third quarter to make the game interesting in the final frame. With under five minutes  to lay in the third the Nets held a 78-59 edge and led 84-69 to start the fourth , but the Sixers hit nine of their first 10 shots in the quarter to threaten things. The Sixers fell to 15-34 with the loss. For more on the game, click here.
