After returning home in the series, the Nets had hoped to use the home advantage to beat the Celtics and win the G3, continuing the suspense of this series. But unfortunately, the Nets were not able to do that, and when facing the Celtics, the team played very badly, they were limited by their opponents in the game, they were 15 points behind at most, and in the final quarter, although the team wanted to try to close the point difference, the overall performance of the Celtics was very stable, they did not give the Nets too many opportunities to fight back, in this game, they always took the initiative. And when the Nets were behind by a big score, they didn't have a good solution, and the team didn't play well. In the end, the Nets lost to the Celtics at home, losing G3, and the Nets have fallen behind 3-0 in this series, and the team's promotion situation is very unsatisfactory.
After losing G3, the Nets were frustrated by the whole team, especially Durant and Irving, who had played badly in the past two games, as team leaders, they had not been able to step up when the team needed themselves, played a special crotch on the court, and at the end of the game, Durant and Irving also turned around and returned to the locker room, which was difficult for the team to accept the current situation of 0-3 behind.
After the game, Durant and Irving were also very self-condemning in interviews, and Durant admitted: We played very badly in this game, especially myself, I played too hesitantly, every time I attack I want to make the most correct judgment, I should shoot more. And Owen admitted: This game can be blamed on me, I need to do better, there is no reason, we need to move forward, now in the most critical moment, we have no time, next we have to make a strong response.
And head coach Nash said directly in an interview after the game that the team did not play any offensive climax this time, I am disappointed that the team lost this game, we are not good enough in many aspects, in the face of a team like the Celtics, we played such a performance, it is difficult to win the game.
From the remarks of the two core and head coach Nash, we can also see that they are frustrated and disappointed by the loss of this game. Originally back at home, the team hoped to be able to achieve a victory, in the G4 game, Simmons returned, the team lineup will be more complete, they still have a chance to be the final winner in this series.
And now for the Nets, they want to reverse this series, which is already very difficult, because no team can complete the reversal when they are 3-0 behind, the Nets have durant and Irving, and Simmons will also come back in the G4, the team lineup is not bad, when they play a good performance in the game at the same time, the team does have a chance to win the game. But it should be known that their opponent in the first round is the Celtics, and it is difficult to win 4 consecutive games against such a strong team.
In this case, the Nets will basically be eliminated in the first round this season, and the next game in this series is for the Nets to fight for dignity. If the G4 is lost, then the team will be swept in the first round, as a team with multiple All-Star players and veterans, they will certainly not be able to accept the first round of being swept, the next G4, I believe the Nets will go all out to win more games in this series, to avoid being swept away.
