It's no wonder Nic Claxton was running on dead legs.Claxton, the gifted starting Nets center and imposing rim protector, played a total of 1,592 minutes in the 54 games he played before the All-Star break.In his first three seasons in Brooklyn, he tallied just 1,755 minutes across 94 total games.The fourth-year big man who enjoyed a breakout start to the season as an early dark horse candidate for Defensive Player of the Year simply ran out of gas - at an inopportune moment when both Kevin Durant and Kyrie Irving orchestrated their respective trades out of Brooklyn.
