After a three-game winning streak, the Brooklyn Nets took a break and continued to sit at home, ushering in the challenge of the 76ers, who were in the midst of a two-game losing streak but whose strength should not be underestimated.
In terms of the Nets, Durant + Mills is in a hot state, and whether the Nets, who rotate 9 people in this campaign, can take advantage of the chase to win 4 consecutive wins has undoubtedly become a major attraction of this game.
On the other hand, on the side of the 76ers, the team can be described as almost all the main players in this battle, and whether Embiid can withstand the pressure and lead the team to win on the road can be said to be both an opportunity and a challenge!
However, after four quarters of fierce competition, with a wave of 24-10 offensive frenzy, the Nets, who played at home, still took the lead in the first half, and forced the 76ers to take a 18-point lead.
Although after returning from the second half, Embiid + Seth Curry in the third quarter simultaneously ushered in an explosion, leading the 76ers to a 19-7 counterattack, at one point narrowing the point difference to single digits.
However, in the final quarter of the showdown, durant + Griffin two veterans began to exert their strength, jointly cut 23 points to take over the game, completely ending the 76ers' attempt to counterattack momentum.
In the end, the Nets also beat the 76ers 114-105 at home, winning 4 consecutive wins at the same time, but also gave the opponent 76ers 3 consecutive losses!
Although there is still a shortage of major generals in this game, the Nets will be described as "able to fight, the battle is to win", the whole team played a team performance of 5 people scoring in double figures and all the soldiers.
In the case of Mills + Clarkston + Cameron Thomas and other main players, each performing their own duties, the two core Durant + Griffin played a crucial leading role!
Durant continued the fiery feel of the previous game in this game, starting 38 minutes, shooting more than half of 13 of 24 shots, hitting 2 three-pointers from the outside, cutting a game-high 34 points, plus 11 rebounds, 8 assists and 1 block double-double performance.
And his key play in the first quarter + the last quarter not only helped the Nets open the situation and harvest the game, but also became an invincible presence for the 76ers, interpreting the role and influence of a team leader!
Of course, the Nets were able to hold the victory in this game, and the veteran Griffin's play was also great.
Although Griffin did not feel good on 5 three-pointers from the outside, he contributed 17 points, 9 rebounds and 2 assists in the game, and Griffin personally did not make mistakes in this game.
Among them, his heroic performance of taking 10 points alone in the final quarter also completely disrupted the defensive rhythm and deployment of the 76ers, and made a great contribution to the Nets to win the game!
And we have to admit that despite the lack of Harden + Aldridge two cores, this Nets team can still firmly occupy the throne of the first place in the East, and its lineup depth and team unity are indeed impressive!
On the other hand, on the side of the 76ers, the team's offensive and defensive ends of this game were completely suppressed, and the final performance of the game of drinking and hating the away game + swallowing 3 consecutive defeats obviously needs to be examined.
After all, Embiid played well, cut the team's high 32 points, plus 9 rebounds, 6 assists and 1 steal of the full performance, Seth Curry ushered in another outbreak, the whole game won 29 + 3 + 4 + 1, the performance of the team's big player Tobias Harris, is indeed somewhat unsatisfactory.
Harris was very depressed in this game, playing 35 minutes, shooting less than two games in 3 of 17 shots, and completely losing the crosshairs on 5-of-0 outside three-pointers.
In the face of the fully staffed Nets, as well as the fiery Durant + Griffin, in the case of Harris's delay in opening the situation, embiid + Seth Curry in this campaign seems to have no choice but to accept the gap between the two sides!
