Nets gain ground on Bucks with 99-95 win (AP) (sports.yahoo.com)

Brook Lopez scored 24 points and grabbed 12 rebounds and Jarvis Hayes hit a tiebreaking 3-pointer with 18 seconds left to lift the New Jersey Nets to a 99-95 win over the Milwaukee Bucks on Tuesday night. It was the Nets third win in the last four games after a five-game losing streak, but it took a while for New Jersey to find its 3-point range.
