In a focus game that ended in the NBA regular season, the Brooklyn Nets won 129-121 on the road to the Pacers. The recent game Nets are in quite bad shape, before this game, they suffered a wave of 3 consecutive losses, this time facing the Pacers who lost 5 consecutive games, it is a great opportunity for the Nets to end the 3-game losing streak, coupled with Irving's return to the debut, the outside world has reason to believe that the Nets have not had much difficulty in winning the game, and finally the Nets also lived up to expectations, and there was no danger of winning the game with an 8-point advantage.
In this game, Irving's return has greatly improved the strength of the Nets, from the key ball to the offensive battle, from the breakthrough to the ability to convert the ball, the change of the Nets is immediate, Irving's speed has improved the rhythm of the Nets to a certain extent, the effect is very obvious. What is commendable is Irving, who has been in the lineup for a long time, maintaining a fairly good state, hitting 9 of 17 shots in the whole game, shooting more than 50% of the shots, and getting 3 rebounds, 4 assists, 3 steals and 1 block, and making great contributions at both ends of the attack and defense.
In the first quarter of the game, pacers Tough Stephenson burst out madly, shooting 4 three-pointers in a row, one person slashed 20 points, helping the Pacers to take the lead, the Nets Big Three although the performance was quite good, but due to Stephenson's unsolvable performance, the Nets still lagged behind, in the second quarter Irving cut 8 points in a row, but the Nets' defense was too bad, and the point difference with the opponent was further widened, at the end of the half they were already 13 points behind, the pacers in the third quarter continued to hold the lead steadily, The Nets could only bite the score while looking for opportunities, and the Nets were full of fire in the final quarter, and they played a 17-5 shock wave to complete the reversal.
It is worth noting that after the game, both players on the court are very friendly, Durant is to lead the whole team to the other side of the bench, hug and greet them, it is interesting that Irving after hugging with his teammates, when walking to the opposing players, quietly put on a mask, and then hugged and greeted the Pacers players, I have to say that Irving's move is still commendable, after all, the players who can do such a fine job of epidemic prevention measures, looking at the entire league, it is difficult to find a second person, the real first person in the league, I have to admit that in terms of epidemic prevention, Irving can be regarded as a clear stream in the alliance.
