On December 19, Beijing time, the Nets played at home against the Magic, and the Nets lost to the Magic 93-100 at the end of the game. Although the Nets this game is against such a weak team as the Magic, but because of the current Lack of Major Generals of the Nets, durant and others are difficult for the Nets to move, so this game the Nets really may not be able to win the game, and if the game began, the Magic played a good state to take the lead, in this case, although Griffin helped the team to catch up with the score, but the Magic responded in the game to maintain the lead, and after the Nets caught up with the score, the response of Wagner Jr. and others still let the Nets lose.
Therefore, the Nets' loss of the game is really unjust, which is of course related to the team's lack of major generals, but it is too early in the game to be in a big score behind, but also the key to the Nets' difficulty in turning the game. But now the Nets have bad news, talking about Griffin after the game, Nash said: Tonight Griffin hit the knee, hopefully he is not very serious, is not expected to play tomorrow's back-to-back game, the team will decide its final form at a later date. It can be said that there are not many people who can help the team now, and now that Griffin has suffered an injury and he can't play tomorrow, then the Nets against the Nuggets may be really fierce.
But there's no way to do it, after all, the season has only been going on for two months now, and the Nets won't make the team suffer more losses for a regular season game, so back-to-back games against Nuggets Griffin may not really play. Speaking about the game after the game, Griffin said: "I made several stupid mistakes in a row today, but our youngsters have been fighting hard and I am proud of their performance. It can be said that Griffin was also outspoken and spoke up about his problems, and as Griffin said, the Young Players of the Nets performed well in this game, especially Duke, who did well in this game, and if it were not for his play in the game, then the Nets would not have had a chance to reverse the game in the final moments of the fourth quarter.
At the same time, after this game, Mills also talked about Irving's return after the game, to which Mills said: "It's really great. We finally agreed that we would be able to get more help away from home. Obviously Mills is happy about Irving's return, after all, the current Nets are really short of major generals, and this season's Nets are really very dependent on Durant, now Irving's return can reduce the pressure on Durant, and Irving's return can also enhance the strength of the Nets, so Mills must also be happy about Irving's return Mills, after all, Mills joined the Nets to help the team win the championship, and the Nets without Irving will show different strength, so now see Irving can play, Mills would certainly be happy in his heart.
So do the Nets really have to lose back-to-back after the bad news that Griffin was injured and could miss the game? After all, tomorrow the Nets back-to-back play is still facing some difficulties, not to mention Griffin here also have some injury problems, even if Griffin can finally play, facing the Nuggets with Jokic The Nuggets want to win is not a simple thing, this is not only the need for Mills to play a good performance in the game, more importantly, the Nets need young people to stand up to help the team, and how the Nets to limit Jokic's play is also a difficult thing, and from the current point of view, the Nets want to beat the Nuggets is really difficult, Therefore, the Nets are likely to suffer a losing streak.
