On December 15, Beijing time, when Durant led the team to blast 51 points in the last single-core game, and now in the isolation of Harden and other 7 people, Durant continues to single-core lead the team to bombard 30+ triple-double data. Durant even in the fourth quarter 5 of 0 only rely on free throws to score 2 points, but in overtime three consecutive shots in 6 consecutive points to lead the team to overtake the score, and finally with 34 + 13 + 11 performance, to help the Nets beat the Raptors in overtime thrilling, continue to be firmly at the top of the Eastern Conference, only Durant's continuous overload operation is also a sound alarm.
Durant contributed a triple-double with this game, and he created a number of feats:
First, Durant contributed a triple-double for the second time this season and a third-double in his Nets career.
Second, Durant contributed a triple-double for the 14th time in his career.
Third, Durant scored 50+ points in the previous game, and the third double in the latter game, becoming the first person in the history of the Nets.
When the Nets retired Harden for the first time in the last season, Durant single-handedly led the team to a match against the pistons at the bottom of the league, and as a result, Durant was forced to full firepower, and the whole game exploded with 51 points, creating a single-game scoring record for players this season, only to help the Nets beat the Pistons to win.
Unexpectedly, there are as many as 7 people in the Nets to trigger the league's health and safety agreement, especially Harden was ready to return to the game, but he could not play in the "middle move", resulting in Nash only 8 people left to rotate the lineup, which naturally allows Durant to shoulder the responsibility of leading the team alone.
In the first half of the game, Durant's combination of attack and passing led the Nets to blast down 33 points in two consecutive quarters, and maintained a 66-56 lead of 10 points in the first half, and once led by 13 points at most, showing Durant's super dominance as a leader.
However, with the Nets in the third quarter by the Raptors' crazy attack, they lost 19 points 25-44 in the single quarter, and were overtaken by 9 points in the first three quarters, and the Nets were behind by 11 points at most. Durant has played extremely the court, he has contributed 50% of the first three quarters 9-of-18, including 2 of 4 outside three-pointers, 6 of 6 free throws, and got a quasi-triple-double of 26+8+7, plus 4 turnovers, but was once humiliated by Siakam's anti-heavenly buckle.
Durant was undoubtedly a little tired in the final quarter, and he was no longer the main point of attack for the team in the fourth quarter, but played the role of organizational forward and defensive iron gate. Durant continued to send out wonderful passes through the needle, especially activating Mills' outside three-point fire, leading the Nets to counterattack the score in the final quarter, and Durant also achieved a triple-double statistic.
It was only Durant who even sent a volleyball cap to block Siakam at one point, but then the Raptors still stubbornly chased to 117-117 draw. Durant continued to miss the shot on the offensive end, and Trent hit another three-point shot, and the Raptors had surpassed the three points by three consecutive three-pointers. Fortunately, Mills equalized with the seventh three-pointer, and the Raptors did not have the opportunity to complete the regular time kill.
After the Raptors scored four consecutive points in overtime, Durant finally "activated" in overtime, and he scored 6 consecutive points with three consecutive solid shots to overtake the score, and after Mills also scored 2 points, the Nets had a four-point advantage. As the Raptors continued to stubbornly chase points, Durant missed a shot in the face of Barnes' defense, but eventually helped the Nets win the Raptors in overtime.
