On February 2, Beijing time, the Brooklyn Nets lost 111-121 to the Phoenix Suns. After the game, basketball star Kyrie Owen was interviewed by the media.
Irving said of the Nets' big three getting together: "I actually hate answering that question because we think about it every day. That's not a good thing for us. ”
"But we're going to think about it in the long run. As a trio, of course we want to be able to play well together, so we always play with energy as well."
"Like Harden once said, as long as we play all the time, no other team can match us."
"We've only played a few games, so my wish is to be able to play together, we also need to be patient and we are confident that we can play with a full squad."
At the same time, Irving said about the team's performance in this game: "We can't make some psychological mistakes against a strong team like the Suns".
In this campaign, Irving played 36 minutes and 34 seconds, with 26 points, 4 rebounds, 3 assists and 1 steal. In the eight games since Durant's injury, the Nets have lost 2-6, and now the team has suffered a five-game losing streak.
