In this game between the Nets and the Pacers, Durant got 39 points, 8 rebounds, 7 assists and 1 steal in 15 of 24 shots, helping the team reverse the Pacers, after this game, Durant's average score per game also came to 30 points, which is the league's first data, this season's Durant has great hopes of becoming a scoring king and MVP, which is obvious to all, Durant has a shooting rate of 51.8% this season, a three-point shooting rate of 37.1%, the state is not only hot but also scoring very efficient.
Now the Nets have also ushered in Irving's comeback, which will make it easier for the Nets to win, Irving showed his efficient scoring ability in the first game, 9 of 17 shots in the whole game, in Irving's absence, the Nets' scoring task is mainly on Durant and Harden, plus the team's internal line has certain problems, so it is difficult for the Nets to defeat the top ranked team, and Irving can solve such a problem after his return, because basketball is ultimately better than scoring, and the top offense is very important in the small-ball era.
The Nets Big Three in the last season, has been a clear division of labor, Durant played small forward, Harden played point guard, and Irving is a point guard, so the run-in between the big three is very easy, and when Irving returns, the Nets' main scoring point is also one more, the opponent not only has to defend Durant and Harden, but also to defend Irving, in general, a team is difficult to defend three of the league's top scorers.
Durant is obviously still at the peak of this season, and the physical condition is much better than last season, this season Durant averaged 37.1 minutes per game, which is the second average playing time in the league, and Durant has also repeatedly said that he is willing to play 48 minutes in order to win, in fact, when Irving returns, some back-to-back games can also be rotated Durant, perhaps Nash will do the same, after all, the most important thing for the championship team is the health problem.
The ultimate goal of the Nets' big three is to win the championship, of course, to complete this goal, it needs to be favorable at the right time, Irving's return is a good omen, but also hope that in the next game, Irving can play the home game, after all, the home stadium is very important, look forward to the next Nets big three can win more games.
