Beijing time on December 13, the NBA regular season continues to play, the Nets away to challenge the Pistons, this game for Durant pressure is very large, Harden and Millsap choose to rest, Nash also has no good strategy, only let Durant play more, in order to solve the current predicament. The Nets are strange and have been facing difficulties, but the record is high in the East, which may be the ability of the superstar to help the team stabilize the record. As Nash said, if you want the Nets to have a good record, you can only have Durantdo on the court.
Sure enough, Durant played 41 minutes and 28 seconds today, almost tired, and when he was behind in the third quarter, he also reprimanded his little brother, making the whole team's defense more active, if it were not for Durant's anger, today is really not necessarily how it is. The emotion of winning runs through Durant's body, playing more passionately, he has hit the opponent's defense line again and again, won 15 free throws, 16 of 30 shots, cut 51 points, 9 assists, 7 rebounds and 2 blocks, no solution + comprehensive, giving the Pistons a blindfold, Cunningham This kind of show in front of Durant, just like a high school student.
The Nets can win, not just watch Durant's performance, Aldridge's 15 points and 5 rebounds, Mills' 18 points, 3 rebounds and 5 assists are also critical, and the Nets' active defense. The Nets sit firmly in first place in the East, with a record of 19 wins and 8 losses, 1.5 wins ahead of the Bucks, and the advantage is still relatively large. After scoring 51 points, Durant responded modestly: "Harden and Millsap are not here, I think I want to take a little more points." "Understated, not taking credit, players like Durant are indeed role models for the team.
Still, Nash was not satisfied, praising the team's defense and being impressed by Durant's 51-point performance, but he was still a little too optimistic. Nash has his own difficulties in terms of platooning, Irving is not there, Harris surgery, Harden is on rotation, Millsap is on rotation. But Nash's way of coping is simple, that is, to make Durant play longer, and it is a bit too simple to solve the problem.
In December, Durant averaged 39 minutes per game, Harden averaged 40 minutes per game in the last three games, so the probability of injuries between the two stars is very high, Nash only thinks about his record, not thinking about better tactics, such a coach is not far away. Although Durant and Harden say that they can play the whole field, if you really use it, the prospects are not good.
Irving also has news on his side, and today he appeared in the high school girls' basketball league to watch the Sierra Canyon High School game. Although Irving is reluctant to get vaccinated, he is still in basketball circles, and he is still eager to play, but now that the two sides are deadlocked, no one is willing to take the first step. The Nets were tough, either vaccinated or traded, and Irving didn't respond. I think things always have to be solved, if Irving can return to the Nets, Nash is the happiest, his problem is solved, if he can't get back to the Nets, it will also be exchanged for the right point guard, Nash is just as happy, he is always the innocent person!
