The last game was suppressed by the Lone Rangers three-point kill, the Nets' winning streak was ended, and the next game they will still be at home to meet the Blazers. In the pre-game update of the injury report, the Nets are still full of injuries, there are still 5 players absent, and Seth Curry is in the suspect list.
Because it is a home game, Irving is still unable to play for the team, New York City's epidemic prevention regulations have been changed, Irving can come to the Barclays Center to watch the ball, but can not play, such a rule is also criticized by many people. Irving's recent form is still very hot, facing the Magic to blast a career-high 60 points, but unfortunately the Nets only have four away games, including one against the Knicks. That said, if New York doesn't change the rules, Irving will only have to play three more regular season games for the Nets.
In addition to Irving's absence, Aldridge will continue to be absent and still plagued by a right hip injury; Simmons still has a sore back, and it is reported that his recovery process in recent weeks has not been ideal, and it is likely that he will not return until the last few regular season games; Harris has received left ankle surgery and has been reimbursed in advance; David Duke has been sent to the development league and will not be on the big list.
Fortunately, Seth Curry, who has missed 3 consecutive games, has improved his status and entered the list of doubts, with a 50% chance of playing. Curry Jr. is due to sore left ankle, and his absence still has a great impact on the team, missing an outside attacking threat point. After joining, Curry Jr. played 11 games for the Nets, averaging 15.8 points, 3.2 rebounds and 3.2 assists per game, shooting 45.2 percent from three-point range.
With Irving and Simmons unable to play again, Durant is going to play alone again. In the last game against the Lone Ranger, he was wrapped up by the opponent, and the last moment was almost to help the team win the game, but unfortunately Dinwiddie hit the whistle three points and completed the kill, and the Nets regrettably lost.
The Nets currently have a record of 36 wins and 34 losses, 3.5 wins away from the sixth-place Cavaliers, and still have a chance to catch up. This also needs New York to give a little strength, quickly change the epidemic prevention regulations, so that Irving can play in the home game, so that their chances are greater.
