Today's game between the Hawks and the Nets is a key card battle for both sides. Before today, the Hawks and nets were 40-37, the Nets had a record advantage of eighth, the Hawks were ninth, and whoever won today grabbed eighth.
Now the place in the Eastern Conference playoffs is basically determined, the Cavaliers' seventh position is relatively stable, and eight or ninety plays are indispensable. Eighth and ninth are a world apart, because ninth must win at least two wins to make the playoffs.
At the beginning of the game, Durant showed a fiery feel, scoring 15 points in the first quarter and shooting 3 of 3 from three points. It can be said that Durant has maintained an extremely incredible offensive state throughout the game, how to shoot how to have.
He scored 10 points on 3-of-4 in the second quarter, 19 on 7-of-12 shooting in the third quarter, and 11 on 5-of-6 shooting in the final quarter. Durant shot 19-of-28 from the field and had 55 points, seven rebounds and three assists on 8-of-10 three-point range.
Especially in the third section, Durant's state can be said to be god blocking god buddha blocking buddha. When Durant faced Capela's jump shot and landed on Capela's foot, the referee blew Capela's first-class villain, and Durant turned on the button.
The Nets then served again, and Durant played 2+1 again, scoring six points in one game. Durant then hit the limit lever, hit a dry jumper, then punched in three-pointers and committed a three-point foul to score 16 points in a row!
I highly recommend that you review Durant's performance throughout the third quarter, which perfectly explains what the league's offensive first man should look like today. In any shooting position, against any defensive position, Durant can score, and even has a juggling horse archery three-pointer.
When Durant played such a performance, the commentary was conquered, and it kept saying that the Eagles actually had a chance. Then I looked at the score, and the Hawks were always ahead of the Nets, and I didn't know that the Nets had already beaten the Hawks.
The reason why the Hawks have been able to lead the Nets all the way and eventually win the key card battle is probably because the Nets only have one Durant. The Nets' offense today can only rely on Durant's magical play, and Irving's occasional nerve knife.
I have to say that Irving played really badly today, although he got 32 points and 6 assists, but used 32 shots. In the final scoring period, he hit the iron continuously, burying the Nets' hopes of winning the game. In contrast, Trae Young scored seven consecutive points to kill the game.
I remember very clearly that when the game lost suspense, Durant was 53 points, and then a simple layup scored 55 points to set a career high. According to some, Durant, which belongs to the predatory layup, brushed out a new career high.
Irving also scored five consecutive points when the game lost suspense, and before that, he scored 27 points on 10-of-30 shooting. Even when Durant was super-god in the third quarter, Irving's shooting was 5-of-18.
The reason why Owen behaved so badly was probably because it was Ramadan. Irving can't eat from 3 a.m. to 4 p.m. every day, and Irving is still scrambling to replenish his energy during today's game. When Owen became "Hungry Text", the state was really not scored.
Durant, who had previously been hovering below 54 points, finally set his own career high today. It was also his third 50+ of the season, and the eight three-pointers hit at the same time also set a career record, but the Nets also lost.
After losing this game, due to the win-loss relationship with the Hornets, the Nets fell from eighth to tenth, officially missing the top six in the division, and must play the playoffs. I can only hope that when Irving plays the playoffs, he will have enough to eat.
