Nets against the Lone Ranger, Irving continued to be absent, Durant was difficult to support, was killed by Dinwiddie's three-point game, the team's four-game winning streak came to an abrupt end, compared to the game to lose, the team's other thing is more troublesome, that is, about when Irving will resume the home game, Irving scored 50 points in the away game against the Hornets, 60 points against the Magic, many fans hope that Irving can play in the home game and help the team enter the playoffs, but the fans' ideas are not recognized, according to the NBA reporter New York will still not change the previous rules for Irving, and it will become more difficult for Irving to resume home combat.
New York Mayor Adams responded to the answer about whether Irving played in the home game in an interview, he said: "I like other fans, I also hope to see Irving play in the home game, but the premise is that Irving must be vaccinated, many fans only pay attention to Irving alone is not right, after all, there are 9 million people in New York, you can't cause others to suffer because Irving alone, you pay attention to one person, I am concerned about 9 million people. So there's no room for maneuver at the moment.
Previously, although New York changed the epidemic prevention policy, so that unvaccinated people can enter the court to watch the game, but still can not play, in the previous Nets home game, Irving appeared in the audience at his own expense to cheer for the team, but he could not play, because he went to the Nets locker room at halftime, was fined $50,000 by the NBA League, against the Lone Ranger is only one of the games at home of the Nets, they will play at home against the Blazers and Jazz, Irving will directly miss three games. In the away games against the Grizzlies and against the Heat, he will play.
Irving's absence, so that the Nets have too many uncertainties in the future, fans including the team still do not know when he will be able to play normally, the home against the Lone Ranger, the whole team tried their best, at the beginning of the fourth quarter at one point a lead of 12 points, but in the fourth quarter, Doncic and Dinwiddie's outbreak, so that the Nets a whole game of effort into vain, Durant tried his best, the whole game got 23 points, 6 rebounds and 10 assists, at a critical moment he once used three points to kill the Lone Ranger, but Ding Widdy's three points still took away the victory at the key moment. What makes fans even more distressed is that Durant played nearly 40 minutes in this game, and in the game, he was almost injured, if Irving was there, then Durant would not be so tired at all. The Nets' offense will be very fluid, but unfortunately he can't play for the team at home.
Injury is the Lingering Shadow of the Nets, harden was injured last season, the Guide Nets lacked major generals, Irving was injured in the semifinals and directly led to the Nets losing to the Bucks, so protecting Durant became a key link, but the team now has neither Harden nor Irving, trading Harden in exchange for Simmons, is also in the recuperation stage, the team wants to win, can only rely on Durant's bitter support, in the face of such a high-intensity game, how long Durant can hold out, it is not known at present, Irving needs to think about the overall situation of the team, You can't cause the Nets' one-season efforts to fail again because of your problems.
