The Nets lost again, although Tatum was sent off at the last moment, but Durant's choice of 3-point shots was still a bit hasty, and in the end they were also punished, losing another game at home 112-116, and they were also swept by the opponent 0-4, they also became the only team to be swept out of the first round of the game, this is also the first time That Durant and Irving were swept, such an ending may not be much that many people can think of, after all, at the beginning of this season, the Nets are the biggest favorite to win the championship!
In this game, Durant also swept away the slump of the first 3 games, he also gradually adapted to the rhythm of being wrapped up, and the whole game also exploded a game-high 39 points, 7 rebounds and 9 assists, but still could not prevent this defeat. In the game, Nash's employment, but also once again questioned, the team's starting center Drummond, only played more than 3 minutes before being directly replaced, after the game he never appeared again, on the bench is also witnessed the team's exit, the whole game only 1 rebound of the data into the account, this game the Nets with a small lineup and opponents to bombard, but still can not escape the fate of defeat.
As an interior substitute, Clarkston was also very important in this game, he got 23 minutes of playing time, 6 of 6 got 13 points, 6 rebounds, 2 assists, 2 steals and 3 blocks of the full performance, but even he could not avoid the fate of being named, and he also had a fatal weakness, in the whole game he got the team's highest 11 free throws, but unfortunately, he only hit 1 ball, just lost 10 points on the free throws, if he can hit even 5 more, The team's outcome may be different, and that's the price the team pays.
It is worth mentioning that this game, as an important member of the team's inner line, the veteran Ade is also abandoned, in 4 series, he did not even get even 1 appearance opportunity, can only sit on the bench, this season's comeback, his performance is still good, especially the mid-range crosshairs are also very high, but did not expect that he also did not get the opportunity in the playoffs, Nash is still worried that he is targeted by the other side on the field, preferring to use the older Zhao Si, that is, not to give Ade a chance, The possibility of Ade leaving the team next season is also increasing.
Important regular season rotation is not wrong, but in the case of the team can not open, several young players Thomas, Edwards to get time is also very limited, this round of series out, the Nets not only lost now, but also lost the future, Nash a game is also destroyed the team's 3 centers, do not go to class I am afraid I can not say it!
