Losing the first round of the playoffs G1, the Nets who were originally suppressed by the whistle must not be convinced, so the Nets who fought away immediately took the lead when the G2 game began, hitting the opponent by surprise, the start was so surging that the Nets could lead the opponent by 10 points at halftime, and two consecutive quarters of the game were pressing the opponent to play, you must see a problem: the Nets' surprise soldiers appeared!
Yes, with Irving unable to stay 100% competitive because of Ramadan not eating in the pre-game, and Durant being tightly guarded by opponents, the Nets need the Wizards too much to show up, and they have to open a path to victory for the Nets, and this time Brown and Dragic stand up. Regardless of the outcome of the game, Brown and Dragic deserve praise.
Although Bruce Brown is a small role, in the Big Family of the Nets, Brown is still worth affirming. This game Brown played well at the beginning, in the case of the opponent's madness against Durant and Irving, Brown, who found the opportunity, each time was a steady grasp of the opportunity, three-point shot into the net, throwing impeccable, rebounding in the front court and creating lethality, in less than 3 minutes of the opening, Brown alone blasted 9 consecutive points to stop the opponent. Unexpectedly, when you were crazy against Durant and Irving, you were single-handedly played by Brown to make a 9-0 start, which is Brown, who successfully opened the situation for the Nets and cracked the opponent's defensive strategy.
In addition to frequent offensive successes, Brown did his best on the defensive end to prevent Tatum from dying. In the first quarter, Tatum tied the worst single-quarter performance of his playoff career, hitting all five shots, including 4-of-4 under Bruce Brown's defense, and scoring 2 points from just free throws. Brown successfully defended Tatum and made the opponent helpless, and it is not difficult to understand that the Nets have a lead, in short, Brown in the first half is a good attack and defense, compared to Durant and Irving are like superstars.
In addition, praising Brown, we must not forget the veteran Dragic. Just as the so-called "home has an old treasure", Dragic played 11 minutes in the first half of the game, played an efficient shooting rate, 10 shots 7, halftime burst 16 points, and are super difficult to score in the middle of the shot, the hot Feel Dragic is too inexplicable, the score of dragic in the first half of the game is the score of the opponent's entire team bench, no wonder the opponent is 10 points behind in the half, with Dragic's performance, Durant and Irving can also take a nap in the first half and focus more on locking up the win in the second half.
Of course, the NBA is a stage full of miracles, although the Nets Appeared, the first half pressed the opponent to play, but in the second half the opponent played the Nets a 17-12, narrowing the point difference to single digits, the Nets want to win the game, also need Durant and Irving to stand up.
