The recent outbreak of the epidemic, NBA teams have been recruited, the Nets have triggered health and safety agreements: Harden, Brown, Millsap, Aldridge, Bemburi, Jevin Carter and James Johnson. In yesterday's Nets overtime win over the Raptors, Nash only had 8 players available, which was too hard!
The Bulls' 10 players triggered a health-safety agreement and their two consecutive games were canceled. The NBA stipulates that the minimum number of people who can register for each team is 8. That said, if one more member of the Nets is quarantined, their number of players will not meet the NBA's minimum requirements, and the game will be at risk of being canceled.
Many fans have to ask: Can the Nets not sign anyone again? Of course! The Nets currently have 5 difficult exceptions to use, and each one is subject to a $500,000 luxury tax. On December 16, Beijing time, the Nets signed Langston Galloway with a 10-day difficulty exception! He played for the Suns last season, averaging 4.8 points per game and shooting 42.4 percent from three-point range.
Who else can play on the Nets right now? Durant, Griffin, Mills, David Duke, Clarkston, Cameron Thomas, Kessler Edwards and Dai Roan Sharp. The last three are all rookies of the year, especially Edwards and Sharp, who have barely had a chance to play before. Now the Nets have no one available, they have to rely on them!
Durant's right ankle was sore against the Raptors, but he played 48 minutes with an injury, scoring 34 points, 13 rebounds and 11 assists on 12-of-29 shooting! KD has played 8 consecutive games and played more than 38 minutes, and the Nets really have to sign him to reduce the burden! Some fans suggest: The Nets don't sign other players, just let Nash put on the jersey to play.
Mills became the Nets' Wizard, scoring 30 points, 4 boards and 2 assists on 10-of-20 shooting to help the team beat the Raptors 131-129. Mills has played 28 games for the Nets this season, scoring 20+ in eight of those games, the second-most of his career. In the 2019-20 season, Mills set a career record with 20+ 9 times in a single season. It looks like he's going to break the record this season.
Griffin had previously been DNP for up to two weeks! Against the Raptors, Griffin played 31 minutes, 13 points, 5 rebounds and 6 assists on 4-of-6 shooting, fighting until 6 fouls left the game! In the last 3 minutes of extra time, Griffin staged a flying save again! Durant praised after the game: "Griffin's performance in the last minute inspired me! ”
Irving doesn't play, Harden is quarantined, and the Nets have a hard time in the next few days! Along with the Nets are the Lakers: Tucker tested positive for COVID-19, and Howard and Munch triggered a health safety agreement. Today's Lakers vs. Lone Rangers game, all three of them can not play, the Lakers even canceled a day of training.
Howard and Tucker did not play away with the team, and Munch arrived in Dallas and was sent back to Los Angeles. Howard and Munch attended a major music festival, and from the photos, neither of them wore masks. Ariza and Nunn are still recuperating, James (abdomen) and thick eyebrows (left knee) are injured, and Vogel's pressure is similar to Nash's!
