The Brooklyn Nets losing to the Golden State Warriors isn’t a surprise.
Now, the Warriors are a once and a lifetime type of super team. If Green was understandably absent, his team was less-understandably late. “The millennials struggled in the first half”. The defense made a comeback for the ages and forced the Nets into 18 turnovers in the 2nd half. Bojan Bogdanovich and Brook Lopez each had 10 points, knocking down two three-pointers a piece.
Milwaukee Bucks: Grades from Overtime Loss to Cleveland Cavaliers (read here): Tom Pheister also reflected on that game, grading the Bucks, Jason Kidd and the Cavs. “No communication, a lot of miscues”. They have and could continue to acquire versatile players that you don’t see often. They’ve lost their last four games. The third quarter kicked off with a Stephen Curry steal against Jeremy Lin that led to a Kevin Durant dunk in Lopez’s face.
“To have the chance to meet him in person, it was so great”, Pachulia said.
If there is a silver lining here, it’s that this could help some of those other wing players get more comfortable on the court between now and the end of the season.
“We get them again tomorrow in Cleveland”, Bucks coach Jason Kidd said.
A Klay Thompson three gave the Warriors a lead. He finished with fourteen points on 6-8 shooting.
Kyrie Irving continued his sensational passing, dishing out ten assists, now averaging 7.6 assists per game over his last nine. Sure he’s averaging his usual 25 points a game, but most importantly, he’s shooting 38 percent from three point range. It was as though victory was merely a choice. Once boasting a roster with potential Hall of Fame talent, the Nets are now smack dab in the middle of a rebuild. “He always pulls out something magical, so let him to his thing and I just gotta to continue to coach the team with what I’ve got”. You want to play stupid?
The Nets are a franchise in the midst of a rebuild with young core of talent that might not make the playoffs, but can still challenge teams on a nightly basis, especially at the home.
