76ers Hammered By Nets, Despite Support From RTRS Fans
NEW YORK (AP/CBS) — Bojan Bogdanovic scored a career-high 44 points and the Brooklyn Nets had a season-high scoring total in a 131-114 victory over the Philadelphia 76ers on Tuesday night.
It ruined the night for the most popular group of Sixers fans.
The Rights To Ricky Sanchez (RTRS) Podcast, hosted by 94WIP's Spike Eskin and Michael Levin, organized a group trip to Brooklyn filled with fans who "Trust The Process." The crew used the hashtag #BusTheProcess.

Sean Kilpatrick had 19 points, Brook Lopez added 18 points and 10 rebounds, and Thaddeus Young finished with 14 points and 16 rebounds for the Nets.
Isaiah Canaan led the 76ers with 20 points, while Nerlens Noel, Ish Smith and Nik Stauskas each had 18.
Bogdanovic's previous career high was 28 points against Orlando last April 15. His total was the most for a Nets player since Deron Williams scored 57 on March 4, 2012, and the most by any Nets player since the team moved to Brooklyn prior to the 2012-13 season.
Smith opened the scoring with a 3-pointer, but the Nets scored the next seven points and never gave up the lead.
