Beijing time on April 18 news, the first game of the playoffs to 114-115 defeat to the Boston Celtics, this game failed to win, for the Brooklyn Nets is really a pity, to know that they are still three points ahead of the opponent when there are 45 seconds left at the end of the game.
After the game, Kyrie Irving said, "It's not safe to just take a three-point lead at the end of the game at home. ”
Referring to today's loss, Dragic praised Irving for playing the role of leading the team forward, but also pointed out that the Nets made some stupid mistakes, "We didn't have anyone to grab the rebound, we had too many mistakes, we have to stop the mistakes."
Kevin Durant, who performed in the sluggish game today, did not shirk his responsibility, scoring 23 points on 9-of-24 shooting and making as many as six turnovers.
"I was a little anxious today, some shots were too rushed."
'The defensive tactics designed by the opponents felt like they were specifically designed to prevent me from receiving the ball, they forced me to stay away from the basket, I wanted to do better in terms of moving, cutting in. Durant said, though he was confident they would return to Brooklyn with a win.
Although Durant deeply blamed himself for the loss, teammates and Nash did not think he was not doing well enough, and Irving said that "he actually handles a lot of details, and people always have high expectations of him." Nash: Durant is Durant, there's nothing to worry about.
