After losing to the Bulls on the road, the Nets challenged the Magic back-to-back. The Magic's strength is weaker, and for the Nets this is the best opportunity to avoid a two-game losing streak, and the Nets did not let this opportunity slip away, and finally won 123-90 against the Magic. It was a relatively easy game for the Nets, who maintained a lead from start to finish, with a maximum point difference of 34 points at one point, and the Magic really didn't have much resistance.
In terms of scoring, Kevin Durant is still as stable as ever, with 30 points, 5 rebounds and 2 assists in 11 of the 12 shots, including 2 three-pointers, 7 free throws, 6 free throws, 30 points, 5 rebounds and 2 assists. James Harden also found form, shooting 6-of-11 from the field, including 4 three-pointers, 1 in 5 free throws, 17 points, 11 rebounds, 11 assists and 2 steals. Of course, another veteran, LaMarcus Aldridge, was equally consistent, scoring 21 points and eight rebounds on 9-of-16 shooting, including 3-of-5 from three-point range.
In addition to Durant, Harden and Ade, the Nets have two other players who score in double figures, de Andre Bemburi has 11 points and Jevon Carter has 10 points. Five-man double-doubles isn't too difficult for the Nets, but the biggest contributor to the game is Durant, who scored 12 points on 5-of-6 shooting in the first quarter, which is the key to the Nets' key to a crucial start, and the next two quarters are even more bulletless, making the Magic's defenders feel desperate. Moreover, Durant accidentally became the first person in team history.
The Nets officially moved to Brooklyn from the 12-13 season, and there have been Kevin Garnett, Paul Pierce, Delon Williams and other stars to join, but they have not achieved too good results, and now Durant, Harden and others carry the hope of the Nets. In contrast, Durant performed even better, with Durant scoring 30 points from 91.7 percent in the game against the Magic, making him the first player in Nets history to score 30+ from 90 percent, and Durant was also the first player this season to score 30 percent from 90 percent.
In fact, Durant's performance can also enjoy a certain status in the history of the NBA. From the 83-84 season to date, the league has seen a total of 50 such performances. Dwight Howard had the most 4 visits, with Shaquille O'Neal and Charles Barkley having 3 each, coming in second. Among the active players, players such as LeBron James and Nikola Jokic have all been, but only once. Cain Williams is the most recent player to play this way, but Cain mainly attacks from the inside, and for players like Durant who mainly shoot from the middle and long distance, the 90% + shooting rate is particularly difficult.
Durant can average 29.5 points, 8.4 rebounds and 5 assists per game this season, shooting 58.8% from the field and 40.4% from three-point range, he currently ranks first in the league in scoring per game, and the Nets' record is also very good, if he can maintain this state, Durant will be able to pick up the regular season MVP this season, and hope that Durant can continue to maintain this outstanding performance and create more team records.
