Who would have thought that the Nets, with Durant and Irving, would fall behind the Celtics 3-0 in the first round of the playoffs? Facing the Green Army's iron-blooded defense, whether it is Durant or Irving, both of them are sluggish, and they have not come up with the appearance of a superstar.
According to historical statistics, in the NBA playoff stage, the team that is behind 0-3 has a record of 0 wins and 143 losses. After the game, Owen also said: "The 1-3 reversal of the 2016 finals is completely different from the current situation of 0-3 behind. ”
Fans know in their hearts that the Nets are powerless to return to heaven. They will eventually lose this round of the playoffs, but it is only a question of whether it is a 4-0 sweep or a 4-1 save face. In this series, Durant and Irving's misplay is the main reason for the team's loss.
However, there are also extreme Nets fans who have thrown their anger at Harden. After the G3 game, a Nets fan posted a video of himself burning Harden's jersey with the text: "F**k 13". Harden has left the team at the trade deadline, and the Nets can't beat the Celtics in the playoffs to anger him?
You know, Harden was a "back cooker" role when he was with the Nets. Whenever a team loses or does not perform well, the outside world will always put the blame into Harden's poor performance. Now, Harden has left the team, and the Nets still don't perform well in the playoffs. Fans should be able to see that Durant is no longer at his peak. He was the main reason the Nets lost.
In addition, Ben Simmons, the main body of Harden's transaction, has not made a Nets debut so far. As a team that aspires to win the title, there is always a top-paid star sitting on the bench who can't play (Irving at the beginning of the season, now Ben Simmons), isn't there a little responsibility for management?
