Today, the Nets challenged the Knicks on the road, and due to the non-compliance of the epidemic prevention policy, Irving could not play in this game. However, thanks to the efforts of two new signings and many players from the Nets, they finally completed a 28-point reversal, beating the New York Knicks 111-106 on the road.
In this game, the team's new signing Seth Curry played 36 minutes, shooting 7 of 14 (6 of 9 from three points, no free throws), 20 points, 1 rebound, 6 assists and 1 steal, plus or minus +27 the highest in the game. It was Seth Curry's second game with the Nets, and in the Nets' home game against the Kings, Seth Curry played 32 minutes, shooting 10-of-18 and cutting 23 points and five assists. In these two games, Seth Curry dared to fight and did not fail in his mission, bombarding a total of 43 points, 8 rebounds and 11 assists, and his three-point shooting rate was as high as 52.9%.
With Irving unable to play in either game, Seth Curry became the nets' backcourt core, helping the nets end the losing streak and stabilize the situation with his efficient and stable play. His addition is indeed a solution to the Nets' urgent needs, and if they continue to lose in a row, they may not even be able to play in the playoffs.
In theory, Seth Curry can fill Joe Harris's vacancy very well, in the absence of Joe Harris and Durant, the Nets' outside offense is not as fierce as before, Mills sometimes plays badly, Seth Curry has become their new help on the outside, 40.8% of the three-point shooting rate will give opponents a lot of pressure, especially in these two games, Seth Curry shot 9 three-pointers, is the team can win the big credit.
When the Nets were behind, Seth Curry hit three consecutive points to help the team narrow the point gap, and with Curry Jr., the Nets' scoring points were much more solid. Judging from his interview, it was also a look of helplessness: "A little tired to tell the truth, I feel that every time I attack they are looking for me, and a few times I just want to take a break." When I was in Philadelphia, I didn't have that experience at all. ”
Indeed, during the 76ers, Seth Curry didn't get many opportunities to perform, and in his first game with the Nets, Seth Curry played as a starter and scored 23 points. In the previous game, behind the 20+ point difference, perhaps Nash has already honked at this time, but after the new signings joined, the entire Nets team became energetic, they played very hard, the resilience of the whole team is constantly improving, and the team atmosphere and morale are constantly improving.
In the absence of Durant and Irving, Seth Curry will become the Nets' most reliable player, in the guard line, his experience and strength can bring great help to the team, in the next few games, I believe Seth Curry will play better and better.
