The Brooklyn Nets became the first team to be swept this season, and seeing this scene, Nets fans must be more distressed about Durant. He couldn't have imagined that the team wouldn't win a single game against the Celtics. Durant's 39 points, 9 rebounds and 7 assists today could not save the team from fire. Durant had to take a good look at his emotions, and sweeping this would be mentioned many times in his future career.
Different people will have different attitudes after losing. The Nets were swept by Nash and Irving have responded. The attitude of the two men is the same: both want to stay with the Nets. After the Nets lost, the American media did not forget to taunt Simmons, who laughed that Simmons handed over 0+0+0 data in this series, with no points, no rebounds and no assists. Simmons was supposed to play game 4, and no matter how the game turned out, Simmons' appearance could give the Nets a lot of confidence. Unexpectedly, Simmons' back began to hurt again and he couldn't play in Game 4, if Simmons played, would the Nets still be swept? We don't know.
Whether Durant is upset, Nash and Irving are taking a stand, or Simmons is being mocked, these phenomena can show that the Nets have been too chaotic this season. Neither on the court nor off the court can the Nets be called an effective team. First of all, Durant, as the core of the team, has not taken on the core responsibilities. Durant is still on the field as before, scoring with unparalleled offensive ability. Defending Durant when he got into form was really difficult. Durant's efficiency of getting back in form and scoring 39 points in this game wasn't bad. But the team is still passive because Durant has a lot of details that he hasn't done well.
For example, Durant communicates less frequently with his teammates on the scene, and when his teammates are hit by the Celtics, Durant should spray some garbage words to build confidence in his teammates. For example, when the team is in trouble, Durant should have a moving speech on the bench, and Curry and James will make some speeches on the bench when the players are in trouble to boost the morale of the team. This phenomenon has basically never happened to Durant. Durant is still the ball nerd, focusing on scoring, but it is not enough to be a leader by scoring.
Speaking of Nash and Irving, from the perspective of a bystander, the Nets have played to this point where they are inseparable from these two people. Why did the Nets want to stay with the team as soon as they lost Irving and Nash? It's hard to say, because no team other than the Nets will accept these two people. Nash's poor coaching ability in this series is known at a glance, poor coaching ability on the spot, poor platoon deployment ability, and no targeted cracking of the Celtics' defense has put Durant in a singles dilemma. Nash also has a drawback, very fond of using the main force. Durant averaged 44 minutes in 4 games, a 33-year-old veteran who had suffered an Achilles tendon injury. As the team's head coach, Nash should allocate Durant's playing time to relieve his pressure.
Irving's series was a great disappointment. In addition to playing efficiently in Game 1, Irving was inefficient in three consecutive games, and the second and third games did not score more than 20 points. Moreover, Owen's immortal attributes were known throughout the Alliance. Irving may stay off the court or not play for no reason. If you were the general manager of the team, would you like such a player?
Finally, there is Simmons, who has not played a single game this season, averaging 0 points, 0 rebounds and 0 assists per game. Time was running out for him to prove himself. No matter how talented Simmons is, not being able to overcome injuries to play the game is empty talk. And his attitude to the game is also suspicious, and it is disappointing not to play a game for the Nets. Dear officials, how do you comment that the Nets were swept out by the Celtics 4-0?
