Losing five straight at home, can you believe this is the Nets that claim to be fighting for the title? What is the reason why they are so difficult to defend their home field? Perhaps today's game against a championship-winning team like the Bucks also gave the best answer.
One is the head coach Nash, to be honest, it is really a pity that Nash did not go to the mix, because it has always been adhering to the principle of playing too much, losing if you can't fight, fighting a bit, for Nash does not exist, because to fight there must be technical adjustments, and this is what Nash did not have.
Yes, there are more than 7 minutes left in the fourth quarter of the game, although the point difference has reached about 20 points, but it cannot be said that there is no hope, but Nash's side, decisively chose to give up, he replaced Durant, Harden, such a move also made the Nets bench a frustrated.
The second is Harden's sluggish performance. In this game Harden shot 6 of 15, got 16 points, 9 rebounds, 7 assists and 5 mistakes, from the data point of view, Harden's performance is not very hot, at least he performed well in rebounds and assists, but when Durant went off, the Nets needed not Harden to grab rebounds and assists, but to score like Irving, with points to help the team move forward, this game, if it is not Durant after the game, Harden led the team to collapse, the Nets still hope.
Home 5 consecutive defeats, such a situation is depressing, expect Nash this side can change, Durant can not be extravagant, after all, Nash will only "sledgehammer 100, medium hammer 80, small hammer 50" let the big three take turns to sledgehammer.
Since Nash has no hope, Durant has become unable to tolerate the situation of the team today, and after the game, Durant also directly stated that we are not just playing a bad game, if we continue to play like this, we will not have home advantage in the playoffs.
Durant also stressed that Irving is very important to us and I look forward to and hope that he can play all the games, but I will not force Irving to vaccinate because that is not my business.
Yes, Durant's statement still points the finger at the team's management, the awkward Nash, the depressed Harden, if you can't solve these problems, at least find a way to solve Irving's problems, let Irving return to the court, all problems will be most alleviated.
Is Durant intolerable to Harden? Seriously, if Harden had been like this, Durant would never have shouted like this, at least now Harden's fight does not match his salary, and if Harden continues to play like this, his big contract will definitely fly. Especially when Green said that the Warriors will win the championship before Durant, the 33-year-old Durant has no time to waste, and for him, if he can't win the championship, he might as well go home and give Internet celebrities a thumbs up.
Durant officially spoke, and we will wait and see how the Nets react.
