However, Nash's use of Durant also has two major hidden dangers, the first is that Durant played too much time in the first half, and the second is that Durant has received 3 fouls in the first half. Harden felt cold in this campaign, stealth again on the offensive end, played in the half for 20 minutes and 17 seconds, 10 of 2, only 6 points, 7 rebounds and 3 assists, 2 mistakes, Harden failed to hit the second quarter, and was hated by the opponent, the state was worrying.

Middleton had just five points and five rebounds on 2-of-9 shooting, Walla had 3-of-7 and eight points, and Hood had seven points on 3-of-4. For the Nets, young players like Edwards and Sharp should be bold to enable, Harden and Mills are not feeling good, they should give young players some chances, so that Durant's defensive pressure is released, interior rebounds are also guaranteed, Alphabet Brother only played 11 minutes in the first half, Middleton 9 of 2, the Nets are still 11 points behind, it is hard to believe.
