On April 24, Beijing time, the Nets lost 103-109 to the Celtics to swallow 0-3, and after this battle, the Nets can only rely on "prayer"! Never in NBA history has a team completed a comeback without falling behind 3-0 in the playoffs. The Celtics led by 3 points in the half, the third quarter opened to 9 points, and the final quarter green Kai once pulled open to 13 points Durant gave up the game early, one by one to Brown, and finally Brown ushered in career night, and KD was sprayed on the hot search.
Bruce Brown, who only renewed his contract with the Nets for $4.73 million last summer, has been brilliant in the playoffs, but because of his size (6'4) no team is willing to give him a big contract, and he hasn't averaged in double figures this season in the regular season, who would have thought he would have become the Nets' thickest thigh in the playoffs. Do Durant and Irving still have a face?
The Nets in the first half of this G3 team were all supported by Brown. In the first quarter, the Nets scored 25 points and Brown scored 4-of-7 + 4-of-3, scoring 10 points, 1 rebound, 1 assist, 1 steal, 1 block, and filled the data field in the first quarter, and he single-handedly created half of the Nets' points. Irving 8 points + Durant 5 points, that's Brown thigh.
In the second quarter, Brown stole Tatum's dragon dunk, held the ball in front of Predat directly and broke through, challenging Lowe to score one, he scored 6 consecutive points to help the Nets narrow the point gap to 6 points (at one point behind 12 points). Brown made 7-of-13 in the half and scored 16 points, 2 rebounds, 1 assist, 2 steals and 1 block on 5-of-5 shooting. (Career halftime scoring record)
'Gold Medal Jamhee' Sleepy Baylors fired at Irving and Durant: Bruce Brown has proven him to be the Nets' best player in two consecutive games.
In the third quarter, Brown was another throw, the air cut recreated the foul, and then the mid-range dry pull was hit, Durant and Irving all gave Brown, Durant and Irving did not shoot in the empty position, Brown then did not hit the green Kai counterattack, Brown alone returned to the defense to send a foul, and in the third quarter Brown scored 23 points, 6 rebounds, 1 assist, 2 steals and 1 block on 10 of 17.
Durant and Irving also want to count on Brown in the last quarter, all give Brown, Brown is also tired, the key to create fouls two free throws, the last quarter 3 points, 2 rebounds and 2 assists, the whole game 41 minutes, 19 of 10, three points 7 2 scored 26 points, 8 rebounds 3zg2 steals and 1 block, shooting 52.6%. Durant had 16 points, 8 assists and 5 turnovers, and Irving had 16 points, 9 assists and 5 fouls.
Salary structure expert Bobby Max wrote: Brown accepted a 4.7 million qualification offer in the offseason, and he took a different path than the 34 players to stay in Brooklyn. He will be an unrestricted free agent in the offseason, but the Nets have his bird rights and can renew his contract on the salary cap.
