On March 27, Beijing time, the Nets defeated the Heat 110-95 away. The Nets showed a ferocious defense, with 15 steals across the team. The Nets' law of winning has been exposed.
When the Nets limit their opponents' points to under 100 points, they have won 27 straight, including 10-0 this season. In this game, the Nets' 15 steals were a new season high, and forcing opponents to make 24 turnovers was also a season high.
The Nets' defense is back, and that's how the team won. Durant stressed the importance of defence after the game: "We know our team faces tough challenges both on and off the pitch, but we bravely confronted it. We guided our attack with defence in this game – I think that played a role in all phases of tonight's game. ”
In this game, the Nets used defense to drive the offense, and the team scored 40 points using the Heat's mistakes. The Nets' fast-break score reached 24 points, while the Heat's fast-break score was just five.
Under the Tight Defense of the Nets, the Heat only scored a total of 68 points in the first three quarters, and if the Nets had not led too much and relaxed in the final quarter, the Heat might have scored less than 95 points.
Drummond was very happy to show up at the press conference with his daughter in his arms after the game, and he contributed 13 points, 11 rebounds and 2 steals in this game. On the defensive end, Chuang Shen was very hardworking, and on one occasion he stole Lowry's pass, then scored with a quick dunk, and before the dunk, he also provoked Bi V. "Today on the defensive end, we did what we had to do. Everyone knows that we have two of the best scorers in the league, so everyone else has to defend well. Zhuang Shen said.
Chuang Shen's defense has been criticized, but he has ushered in a recovery at the Nets, and the defensive end is very hard, and has secured the starting position.
The Nets are recovering strongly, winning seven of their last nine games, and while the team is still eighth in the East, the top four teams in the East are all wary of the Nets. The Nets are in the play-off area, and it is possible to eventually enter the playoffs as seventh in the East or eighth in the East, so the first or second strong in the East will be tested. No team wants to hit the Nets too early, especially Nets guard Irving, who has lifted the home game ban. New York's epidemic prevention policy has changed, and Irving can play the home game without vaccination.
Durant and Irving are combined, the Nets are strong, and although it is unknown whether Simmons can return in the playoffs or playoffs, the Nets with Durant and Irving already have strong competitiveness. The Nets' goal is to storm the championship, as evidenced by the game of the Heat, who were originally ranked first in the East.
