The Nets finally survived the victory, and Irving proved to everyone with a 50-point output in 19 shots that the Nets are not just Durant.
On March 9, Beijing time, the Nets beat the Hornets 132-121, ending a bad four-game losing streak.
Irving played bravely to bring the Nets a hearty game. Exploded with 50 points and 6 assists to completely dominate the Hornets defense. Ou Shenxian's ball skills are also immortals, directly playing Durant as a role player.
In the whole game, Durant only had 13 shots, and it was rare to win the game without much effort.
In this game, Nets guard Kyrie Irving shot 15-of-19 and had 50 points, 3 rebounds and 6 assists.
Since the introduction of the 24-second offensive rule in 1954-55, Irving is the fifth player in the league to score 50 points in multiple career games and shoot 75 percent from the field, having previously done so only Wilt Chamberlain (8 times), Michael Jordan (3 times), Carl Malone (2 times) and Adrian Dantley (2 times). In the defender position, only Jordan has achieved this achievement before.
Everyone on the team is excited about Irving's 50 points. I believe they all want to take this opportunity to change the nets' current decline.
After this battle, Irving's form has been found, and Drummond, Mills, Curry Jr. and others have also matched a good enough competitive state, and together with Durant, the team is likely to recover the ranking in the next game.
However, until now, the Nets' record this season has long become the biggest laughing stock in the league, and the Lakers are simply something to echo. Almost everyone is hoping that in the playoffs, the Nets' lineup will be complete. Unlike now, Aldridge, Simmons, and Joe Harris had no choice but to watch from the sidelines.
So, in fact, the Nets have not really played their own ability, and it has always been the role players who have really carried the team forward, for various reasons, the core of the Nets has never formed a synergy in the game.
If the Nets end this season in failure, regrets outweigh frustrations.
However, this is the league's basketball. As Durant said.
Dealing with off-court factors is also part of the NBA, and some people don't enjoy basketball.
