In this season's NBA Eastern Conference, the Brooklyn Nets relied on Durant's stable play, once ranked first in the standings for a long time, but the team's recent state has had great ups and downs, and the upstart Chicago Bulls who have risen in the new season have surpassed the Nets with a long wave of winning streaks to become the Eastern Conference leader, as the Nets with the core lineup of the ultra-luxurious big three, not winning the championship means defeat for them, so in the next schedule and the Bulls compete for the first place in the East , still the most important task in their regular season stage! This game the Nets encountered the already lonely Western Veteran Strong Team Spurs, the latter has long lost the touchstone of the strong team of the year, but under the leadership of the old coach Popovich, no team can underestimate the combat effectiveness of the Spurs, facing the Nets led by Durant and Harden, the top stars of the two leagues, the Spurs continued their team basketball style in this game, and have been fighting with the opponent until the last moment, in overtime to limit the Duha duo, very well limited the Duha duo, But in the decisive moment, this season's rookie Thomas stepped up, and his quasi-kill helped the Nets narrowly beat the Spurs 121-119!
The Nets and Spurs are completely the extreme of two different basketball concepts, the Nets team of the core lineup of the big three is the typical need for the star's personal ability to drive the overall basketball of the whole team, and the Spurs is the representative of team basketball, with a smooth conduction of the ball to let the teammates in the best position to complete the offense is the concept they have always adhered to, this campaign again facing the Nets, the Spurs once again let the fans see the charm of team basketball, the whole game they have a total of 7 players scored double digits, but as the absolute core of Murray, Individual offensive efficiency is not very high, although the full personal data of 19 points, 9 rebounds, 12 assists, 2 steals and 1 block, but only 7 goals were hit in 22 shots, and the gap in star performance is the root cause of their loss.
In today's Nets team, Durant is recognized as the number one star, but the death god of this game did not wave his scythe at the critical moment, the previous unstoppable Durant, the final quarter of the showdown 5 shots 1, overtime 4 shots 1, a total of only 4 points, which also confirmed nash's lack of coaching ability from the side, Popovich calculated Nash's tactics is the star singles, in the decisive moment crazy to wrap Durant, so that the team tenaciously dragged the game into overtime.
Harden, who has been in good shape recently, carried the team's offensive banner in the case of Durant's poor form, and single-handedly scored 13 points in the final quarter, contributing double-double data of 26 points, 7 rebounds and 12 assists in the whole game, but the top superstars of the two major leagues have become the background board for rookie Thomas, who although only scored 11 points in the whole game, but his throwing at the last moment of overtime determined the final trend of the game.
Although the Nets laughed to the end of this game, as many fans said after the game, if the two sides change the head coach, the point difference will have already reached double digits, and it will not be fought until the last moment, Nash's coaching ability has become the biggest hidden danger on the road to the Nets' championship!
