22 points, 4 assists, 3 rebounds and 3 steals helped the team reverse the Pacers 129-121 on the road. That's nets Irving's stat sheet today, Irving is finally back, this game Irving is not strange, still the healthy Irving. As long as you play, you can bring help to the team, not to mention that Irving hit difficult goals in the 4th quarter to help the team to overtake, and the Nets would never have won without Irving today.
After the game, Owen was interviewed by reporters, and the reporter specifically mentioned the vaccine issue. Owen replied: "Now is not the best time to get a vaccine, I think about this every day and believe that one day it will be solved." Owen's words obviously made many fans excited, and from Owen's words, we can feel that Irving has loosened. When the time is right in the future, Irving can play for the Nets healthily and healthily. Can the Nets lock up a championship this season?
After watching Owen's unparalleled performance today, the major commentators also began to blow Irving. After the game, former NBA superstar O'Neal retweeted the remarks of an influencer on social media who believed that Whether you like it or not, Irving is the top three point guard in history.
The changes Irving brought to the Nets are obvious. In this game, Irving felt average in the first quarter and did not hit a goal. In the second quarter of the game, Irving started today's performance with a mid-range, and Owen's offensive desire was not bad, and he was determined to shoot when he had the opportunity. He made 17 shots and maintained a shooting percentage of more than 50%. The high-intensity defense still had no effect on Irving.
Irving showed his fangs in the fourth quarter of the game, explaining his meaning and value. The Nets were behind in the 4th quarter, and Irving and the Nets players blew a counterattack horn together. With six minutes left in the 4th quarter, Irving hit two consecutive difficult mid-range shots to stretch the gap to five points. Those two goals greatly increased the Nets' confidence. Then Irving continued to output, no ball containment, ball defense or good, Irving has done a good job.
Today, thanks to Irving's return and containment, Durant exploded, scoring 39 points. If Irving hadn't been present in previous games, Durant would have been chased and blocked at a critical moment, or even a double defense. Durant also has to put a lot of energy into the defensive end. Harden has a mediocre feel today, but he has teamed up and made a difference on the defensive end. Many times on the inside to change the defense of Sabonis Jr., the Nets giants are in place, and the first game of the combination is successful. This is a very good sign.
Irving's outstanding performance has impressed many people, and some netizens believe that Irving is the top three point guards in history. If you take into account the honor and status Owen is obviously not up to this level. But if Irving is definitely worthy of the top 3 in the history of point guards, he can even compete for the 1st place. Most of Irving's goals today are still difficult shots, dry breakouts, backs and signature butterfly dribbles, Irving seems so calm. Even though he hadn't played for more than 200 days, Irving had been training hard off the court and had never slackened off.
At the end of Quarter 3, Irving shook off the defenders with a beautiful fake move. He then hit a steady whistle in mid-range to help the team close the point difference to 7 points. After Irving hit, his teammates came to applaud him. Teammates know how important Irving is to this Nets team, and with him there are two teams without his Nets.
Irving is back, the Nets are finally on the right track, and the next game Irving only needs to slowly integrate into the team to find his form. In game 1, Irving played quite well before he could fully output, and when Irving returned to full strength, how strong the Nets would be at that time.
