Since entering the playoffs, Kevin Durant's doubts have not been broken, VS Green Kai's G3 is at home in Brooklyn, KD only shot 11 times in the whole game, only 1 shot in the last 12 minutes, and the US media Hatermuse satirized Durant: he did not shoot once in the remaining 11 minutes of the final quarter.
Magic Johnson also spoke out: I've seen some of the best duos in the NBA over the last 40 years, and after watching the three games between the Nets vs Celtics, I wonder if Durant and Irving are a suitable duo.
Even the 'Gold Medal Dub" turned against him: Durant was originally the best basketball player on the planet, but he turned the Celtics into a waste.
The Nets and Green Kai are the only teams that have not played G4, the two sides will settle on April 26, Beijing time, the Nets have a 40% chance of winning at home, and The Probability of Green Kai sweeping the Nets 4-0 is out.
If Green Kai swept the Nets, Durant would swallow the first humiliating record in NBA history — Durant would become the first regular-season MVP in NBA history to be swept in the first round of the playoffs. (Previously, all the media thought that Jokic would be the first regular season MVP to be swept in the first round of history, and now Jokic refuses to sweep 37+8+6, and the pressure is all on Du Xiaoshuai's side)
In the first two games, 13 of 41, 2 of 7 from three-point range, 8 assists + 12 turnovers, 6 of 11 in the third game with 16 points, 8 assists and 5 turnovers, Durant averaged 5.67 turnovers per game, shooting 36.5% from the field.
Charles Barkley diss Durant on April 25: Durant wasn't the best player when he played for the Warriors, he joined the team with 73 wins, Durant is the FMVP but not the Warriors' best player, Iguodala is also the FMVP but no one ever feels that he is the best player for the Warriors.
If you're a passenger, you're called a champion all day. A player who averages less than 20 points per game in the playoffs, don't say you're superstar, I remember I've never had such a low score in the playoffs (Barkley averaged 14 points per game in '85)
The 34-year-old James, 18, trailed the Celtics, who won 55 wins in the East (defensive efficiency league first) 0-2, and eventually came back to the Finals 4-3. Is it ironic that Durant, 34, 22+ 30-year-old Irving, who is 0-3 behind Green Kai, faces being swept in the first round?
