In the NBA regular season, the Nets played at home against the Lakers, because of the absence of Irving and Durant, the Nets eventually lost to the Lakers 96-106. After losing this game, the Nets have lost 2 consecutive games, but fortunately, the early results are good, and they are still in the third place in the East.
From the data side of the game, Harden is really trying his best. In this game, Harden played a total of 38 minutes and 22 seconds, scoring a triple-double of 33 points, 12 rebounds, 11 assists, 2 steals and 1 block. However, the shooting percentage is slightly lower, with 11 of 24 shots and 6 turnovers.
No way, Harden single-core led the team, Nash's tactical arrangement is also around Harden to attack. In the face of the Lakers' multi-person bag clip, Harden's play is already remarkable. Compared with the unreliability of other teammates, Harden's point is to help the Nets save their last face, because now this Nets, the team's substitute rotation players will not get points at all after playing.
To be honest, it is normal for this Nets to have Harden's idea of leaving the team. In this game, Nash's substitution is also a mysterious operation. Obviously, there are such strong players as Griffin on the bench, but Nash does not give him a minute of playing time. In addition, the final-minute point difference has been pulled back, and the result is replaced by Johnson and Clarkston, and the continuous mistakes have been widened by the Lakers.
As Harden said in an interview after this game, the reason this team lost was that the switch defense could not be done. This problem will not be solved in a moment and a half, and the quickest solution is that Durant and Irving can return as soon as possible, but at present, the possibility is very small. Harden's words after the game were really heart-wrenching, he said: "I'm frustrated because I want to win!"
Tomorrow there will be a back-to-back game against the Nuggets, and if the Nets continue to play the Lakers today, I am afraid that they will usher in a three-game losing streak. In addition, through the game schedule, the Nets' opponents in the next few games are hard bones, after playing the Nuggets to play the Warriors, after playing the Warriors to play the Sun, it is really worried about the nets' results.
