On January 16, Beijing time, the Nets defeated the Pelicans 120-105 at home, and the 15-point lead also allowed the Nets to raise their eyebrows and avoid losing streaks.
Harden fully shouldered the responsibility of a leader in this game, played well on both offensive and defensive ends, and harden's performance in the team's organizational tandem and individual scoring was commendable. However, Durant's injury also brought sadness to the Nets, and watching Durant limp back to the locker room, Nets fans are also extremely sad.
It was not easy for the big three to fit, but Durant was mistakenly injured by his teammates, which was really uncomfortable. The Nets' overall shooting percentage is better than the Pelicans, shooting rate is about 10% higher than the Pelicans, free throw shooting rate is about 30% higher than the Pelicans, three-point shooting rate is about 15% higher than the Pelicans, it can be said that the Nets relied on excellent shooting to beat the Pelicans.
The Nets were organized by Harden, with Durant, Mills, Edwards, Sharp, and Thomas all scoring in double figures, and the team's six players scoring in double figures, dealing a heavy blow to the Pelicans offensively. The Nets' game was a sad and joyous game, and the sad thing was that Durant was injured by Brown and withdrew from the game early.
As for the severity, it will wait for the NMR results to be released, but it is estimated that it is not ideal from the live video. Happily, the Nets beat the Pelicans by 15 points, Harden's form returned, and the Nets scored in double figures with six members of the team.
However, compared to Durant's health, these are a little less important, to know that once Durant is injured and misses multiple games, then the blow to the Nets can be "fatal". In this campaign, Harden played 41 minutes, bombed 27 points, 15 assists, 8 rebounds, 1 steal and 1 block, shot 15 shots and 9 shots, 2 of 5 three-pointers, 7 of 8 free throws, plus or minus +21 the highest in the game.
Durant played 13 minutes, with 12 points, 3 rebounds, 2 assists, 1 steal and 1 block, but unfortunately withdrew early due to injury in the second quarter. I wish Durant no major problems, an early return to the court, and hope that the Nets will remain in shape to meet the winning streak.
