The Nets away to meet the Wizards, this game Harden and Irving continued to play hand in hand, after the opening, Irving was very active, his consecutive scoring helped the Nets establish a lead, Irving got 12 points and 4 assists in a single quarter game, the second quarter, the Nets blossomed more, Thomas and Ader's mid-range shots, Harden continuously hit the basket to get 7 points, Irving re-emerged, the mid-range dry pull also, the Nets once opened up double-digit advantage.
Nash emphasized speeding up this half of the game, the Nets also achieved good results, the team scored 3 people in the first half of the double, Irving got 22 points, Ader 19 points, today Harden's feel is a bit sluggish, but in terms of organizational offense, Harden's performance is still impeccable, the last attack before the end of the first half, we once again saw Harden's passing skills, really out of the blue, so that defenders can not defend.
Before the end of the first half, Beal's strong breakthrough chased the point difference to within 10 points. Only left the Nets 4.7 seconds of time, Edwards sent the bottom ball to Harden, at this time the Wizards players are ready to retreat, but their attention is more on Harden, thinking that he is going to shoot the half of the ultra-far 3 points, but what they did not expect is that Brown on the flank has been almost down, Harden also realized Brown's running position, only to see that he was not yet halftime, directly a two-handed hit the ground, a long pass to the fast Brown.
At this time, Harrell and Kuzma are still staring at Harden, when they see him passing, it is too late to react, and the result is that Harden's pass of the ball is also just right, the ball leader is just in Brown's hands, Kuzma turned back to chase back is too late, Pop made up for it is also a little late, the result of Harden's pass, directly through 3 defenders, Brown received the ball, did not need to dribble at all, directly scored on the basket, but also caused a supplementary Pop foul, 2 + 1 play.
Although the time is short, but as long as you dare to run, I dare to pass, Harden's pass is really very ghostly, 3 defenders have been deceived, Brown this 2 + 1 to eat cake is too easy, it is worth mentioning that this Nets offense is finished, but also left a little time for the Wizards, the whole process only took 3 seconds, I have to say that this is our familiar Dengge, but unfortunately today Harden's feel is not good, but fortunately the team 1 point almost won!
