NBA Twitter reacts to the Brooklyn Nets’ come-from-behind win in Charlotte
The Brooklyn Nets earned a huge come-from-behind victory against the Charlotte Hornets, as Kevin Durant and Cam Thomas helped turn around an 11-point deficit in the final period.
Thomas put up an essential 17 points up coming off the bench, and Durant was lethal in the final minutes, hitting clutch shots to put the game away and give the Nets a second consecutive win in as many nights.
Nets interim coach Jacque Vaughn discussed the gutsy run the team had in the final quarter
“The thing that we’re going to hold on to is back-to-back, on the road, odds are against you. We talked about no excuses, and we didn’t find an excuse: We found a solution.”
Here’s what players, fans and analysts were saying after Saturday’s thrilling win:

Might be completely out of my mind, but I've been super high on him all along.
I don't see why Cam Thomas can't develop into the Nets' version of Jordan Poole or Tyrese Maxey.
Will take progression as a passer and shooter, but I really think he can get there. Thomas is only 21.
