Durant 55 points, 7 rebounds and 3 assists, Irving 31 points, 2 rebounds and 6 assists, and the dual core teamed up to 86 points, 9 rebounds, 9 assists and 2 steals. While the team lost to the Hawks 115-122, where was the loss? Three "uncomprehensible" details confirm that they really lost to themselves.
Durant scored 8 three-pointers and scored 55 points and set a career high, but the Nets lost to the Hawks
1. The Nets' defense is incomprehensible.
Average of 112.4 defensive efficiency is 21st in the league. The Nets' defense is very bad, but it is not as if there are two unintelligible defensive images that are even amateur:
Trey Young Three-pointer
Trey Young A diagonal pass to Hunter in the left corner, and the latter broke through and passed back to Trae Young. So as we see, Trae Young stopped there after getting the ball and adjusted his breathing. For 4 seconds, no one came to defend, until Durant at the farthest end came to interfere. What were Thomas and Drummond doing?
Light's large open three-pointer
In the final quarter, the Hawks failed to attack. In the rebound, Wright won the ball with 55. When he came to the top of the left arc, please note that it was exactly the same as the picture in the previous picture. Mills ran to the right bottom corner, Johnson returned to the top of the arc, and Thomas walked around again until Durant was about to protect the basket, and he rushed back to run again and rushed towards Wright to interfere with his open three-pointer.
In this game, the above picture appears more than once. The Nets are not without defense. It can even be said that such a picture is really too amateur. Even when facing an opponent with a three-point shooting rate of less than 30%, you can't interfere within three meters and let him practice three-points. What's more, Trae Young has a three-point shooting rate of 38.3%; Wright has a three-point shooting rate of 39.6% and cannot let go!
2. The Nets are incomprehensible "no pass"
More than one pass, there is more possibility of openings. The eternal law on the basketball court, but the Nets in this game?
Thomas singles
The picture we see is that the team plays unlimited singles. Of course, under the pressure of the Hawks, we can still understand the singles between Durant and Irving, but Drummond's personal dribble hook, Thomas almost all dribbled as shown in the figure. Mills received a ball and then ended directly without a second transmission. The Nets had too many singles against defense. The effect can be imagined. Except for Durant and Irving's 31 shots, the other players made 11 of 39 shots, with a shooting percentage of 28.2%. What if there was one more transmission?
Edwards three-pointer
Durant broke through to Edwards at the top of the left arc, and the latter passed to Mills in the left bottom corner. Trae Young was moved by the two and lost the other. Mills passed back again, and Edwards hit a three-pointer with open position. In fact, the Hawks' defense is really as shown in the figure. They can only defend 1-2 transmissions. Once more, they will hope to tear their defense open. This season, their defensive efficiency is 113.8, fifth from the bottom in the league, and three transmissions of this offense are effective immediately.
What is puzzled is that the entire Nets team fell into an unlimited "single" cycle in this game and could not extricate themselves.
3, Nash "employed people" twice.
Seth Curry , Dragic and Brown are absent. Nash has to use deep substitute to ensure depth, but the two difficult-to-understand adjustments are:
"two towers" lineup in the second quarter
6 minutes in the second quarter, Nash actually put out Drummond and Griffin "formerly Pistons double towers" lineup, causing serious consequences. The Hawks made 2 of 10 three-pointers in the first quarter. As a result, due to the "two towers" being unable to achieve external defensive interference, Garlinari and Wright scored 3 consecutive three-pointers to lead a 14-0 wave. The Hawks fell behind from 29-34 and instantly completed a 43-34 return, an important turning point in this game.
Thomas' turnover
In addition, during the 12-minute appearance time in the first half, Thomas' 1 of 5 shots has proved that he is in poor form, but in the second half, Nash still gave him the last 13 minutes of playing time. He made 1 of 7 shots in the whole game and only contributed 5 points, 8 rebounds, 2 assists and 1 steal, and there were 2 turnovers and 4 fouls. The efficiency value of the field was -10 the lowest in the game. Is he really worthy of Nash's trust? With an extra mouth, Edwards made 3 of 6 shots, 2 of 4 three-pointers and contributed 9 points and 3 rebounds, and his defensive ability was above Thomas, but he only got a 19-minute performance opportunity.
Let’s look at this game again. Durant and Irving’s excellent performance, especially when the former scored 55 points and 8 three-pointers, both set career records. The Nets had the opportunity to win, but in the end they lost. In fact, it was not how outstanding the Hawks played. The above six difficult-to-understand details confirmed that the Nets actually lost to themselves.
