In fact, before this game was played, perhaps the outcome of the game was already obvious. It is very difficult for the Warriors who have played in the remnant to defeat the Nets, but such a point difference should not be expected by many fans.
With the comeback of Durant and Irving in the new season of the Nets, although this is only their first season, they are still unanimously favored by the major media. Many people think that this Nets is the first echelon of the new season championship candidate team.
Although it was a big win, the Nets still did not do their best. Durant and Irving, who played the most minutes in the team's starting lineup, only had 25 minutes, and 15 players got the chance to play. This has a lot to do with the state of the Warriors today. Looking at the Warriors, except for rookie Wiseman, the performance of the entire Warriors team is worthy of recognition. Other players did not perform very well. Although Curry scored 20+10, he only shot 7 of 21 from the field and only 2 of 10 from three-pointers. In addition, Wiggins and Oublay made only 7 of 30 shots.
This is also enough to prove why this brand new Nets are eligible to be unanimously optimistic. In addition to their strong offensive firepower, they also have excellent defense and amazing bench depth.
The state of this warrior can no longer be the opponent of the Nets, the team's second game will be the Christmas game, the opponent is the Celtics. This is also an important battle to test their quality, and it will also be an important competitor for the Nets to break out of the East.
