Today the NBA playoffs continue to play, the Nets ushered in a life-and-death contest with the Green Army, in the first half the Green Army achieved an 8-point lead, in the key third quarter the Nets still failed to exert strength, although in the final quarter the Nets gradually returned to the disadvantage, but the game was decided, and finally the Nets lost to the Celtics 112-116, the series was swept 4-0, Andu helplessly hated the first round.
In terms of stats, the Celtics (4-0): Tatum 29 points, 3 rebounds, 5 assists and 6 fouls, Jaylen Brown 22 points, 8 rebounds, 3 assists and 1 break, Horford 13 points and 6 rebounds, Theth 6 points and 8 rebounds, Smart 20 points, 5 rebounds and 11 assists, Grant Williams 14 points, 3 rebounds and 3 blocks, Derrick White 9 points, 6 rebounds and 2 assists, Robert Williams 3 points and 5 rebounds
Nets (0-4): Durant 39 points, 7 rebounds, 9 assists and 1 break, Bruce Brown 2 points, 2 rebounds and 2 assists, Seth Curry 23 points, 4 rebounds and 2 assists, Irving 20 points, 5 rebounds and 5 assists, Dragic 10 points, 8 rebounds and 4 assists, Clarkston 13 points, 6 rebounds, 2 assists and 2 breaks, Mills 5 points, 2 rebounds, Griffin 3 rebounds and 4 assists
In this game, Durant finally came up with the superstar performance that should be there, shooting 31 shots 13 of the whole game, 11 shots of 3 of three-point shots, cut 39 + 7 + 9 but helplessly failed to stop the decline, but as the second core Irving, the whole game of 13 shots 6 only got 20 + 5 + 5, in today's game Irving's mental outlook is also very bad, and even have a feeling of wanting to take a holiday early.
Of course, the most outrageous is the Nets interior Line Clarkston, who scored only 1 goal in 11 free throws, creating a new playoff record after O'Neal (8 consecutive irons), but when it comes to the players who should be the most responsible for this series, then Irving and Simmons are definitely two major cancers, if you are Durant, you may not want to stay in the Nets next season.
For example, Irving, when the training game was held yesterday, the reporter found that Irving was directly absent from training, and this may also be one of the reasons for his sluggish performance in this game, in addition to the various riots in the regular season, it is not necessary to count, announcing the entry into Ramadan at the key moment of entering the playoffs, to know that Jaylen Brown is also one of the believers, are abiding by the Ramadan rules, why is Irving's performance so much worse than Jaylen Brown?
After saying Owen, another back pot man, Simmons, is indeed hated! Originally according to the plan, today's G4 Simmons will definitely return to the game, but before the start of the game, Simmons announced that he refused to come back because of physical and mental disabilities, back pain after getting up, and he has not played a game in a season after joining the Nets, is his back injury really that serious? It is estimated that the Nets themselves are not clear, I don't know how you see the Nets after being swept away, how do you think?
