Kevin Durant didn't do well enough in the last game against the Celtics, and after the game Durant also admitted that the Celtics' strategy of assigning 2-3 defenders to deadlock themselves was really uncomfortable:
In fact, after the first game of the Nets' series against the Celtics, Durant talked about the Celtics' defensive strategy that greatly limited his play.
On the other hand, Kyrie Irving also talked in an interview about Celtics coach Udoka's knowledge of the Nets well with his and Durant's play:
"Amy knows us very well."
At present, the Celtics' defensive strategy against the Nets is to completely cut off the connection between Durant and Irving, which also makes Irving and Durant largely have to choose a single way to solve the problem, and under the tough defense of the Celtics, the two have not performed well enough in the past game.
Finally, according to the US media Shams Charania, Ben Simmons will make his debut in Game 4 of the Nets' first-round series against the Celtics:
Of course, if the Nets still lose game 3 against the Celtics, it also means that Ben Simmons' debut is likely to be the Nets' last game of the season.
