On April 24, Beijing time, the Nets played at home against the Celtics, and the Nets lost to the Celtics 103-109 at the end of the game. Today's game The Nets are already in a desperate situation, after all, 0-2 is not terrible, if the Nets can win their home game, then the Nets still have a chance to turn over this series, so this game is a game that the Nets can't lose, but the Nets are very bad, there are problems at both ends of the attack and defense, especially in the critical moment, the Celtics have Tatum, Brown to help the team, but Durant and Irving did not come up with such a performance.
Although Durant's performance in the G1 and G2 games is very sluggish, but many people still believe that Durant can find his own state in the G3 game, so even if the Nets are 0-2 behind the Celtics, there are still many people who have expectations for the Nets, but how much disappointment there is, in this game Durant's performance is still bad, there are many mistakes in the game, not to mention, more importantly, Durant obviously lost some shooting confidence, before Durant played iron also chose to continue to shoot, In this game, Durant directly chose to pass the ball, but when the team is in trouble, you are obviously not realistic when you expect role players, so it is really not unjust for the Nets to lose the game in the end.
After all, Durant's performance in the game is too bad, especially in the face of the team 0-3 behind, in this case you can hardly expect the Nets to be able to turn over, not to mention that from now on Durant is difficult to get back to the past state, so the Nets may have to stop the first round of the playoffs this season. Looking at the Celtics' performance in the game, Kuzma is even more blunt, to which Kuzma wrote on social media: Uduka is the best coach of the season in my mind. The Celtics' record in the middle of the season seems to be 25-25, but now they are about to sweep the Nets.
Obviously, the Nets are not optimistic now, and as Kuzma said, the Nets are likely to be swept out, because the Nets really have difficulty seeing the hope of winning in the game, even if Simmons can return, but it is obviously unrealistic to expect a player who has not played in the regular season to save the team, not to mention that Simmons has also played a formal game with the Nets, so it is undoubtedly a fool's dream to make Simmons a savior. At the same time, when Durant was playing in the downturn, Irving also played in the game, and in the adversity, Irving was also invisible, he seemed to have no highlight performance in the G1 game, after all, if Irving could still play, then the Nets may still have a chance to win the G3, but Irving did not do such a thing in the game.
At the same time, Nash's coaching in the game has also been questioned a lot, because when the Nets are in difficulty, Nash should have made changes earlier, at least he should give Griffin and others some opportunities, but this game Nash only gave Griffin a chance in the second half of the game, and Griffin also brought help to the team after playing, but in the face of the Nets' overall dilemma, Griffin alone was difficult to save the overall situation, and finally the Nets still lost the game. In fact, Nash has been questioned a lot in the regular season, and now in the playoffs, Nash has not changed much, and putting him on the court when Durant is obviously very tired is dragging him to the team, so such Nash should really be dismissed, because he needs to take responsibility for the Nets' loss.
