In this game, Durant finally found his "god of death" state, the first quarter of the game Durant played a full 12 minutes, got 11 points and 2 assists, the second quarter of the game single quarter scored 9 points. With 20 points and three assists in the half, it looks like it's back in form.

This game is really a redemption battle for Durant, and Durant played too badly in the first three games, which is very rare in so many years. In the fourth game, Durant finally found his former self, his attack no longer hesitated, not as much as he thought in the previous three games, which is also the key to his ability to play well! Although it did not lead the team to victory, such a performance was in line with the expectations of fans for Durant!
It can be said that for Durant, although he no longer has to prove himself, but in a game like the playoffs, in the face of such a defense, he still needs to find a way, if other teams in the future also target Durant, then it will also have a certain impact on his subsequent games.
