The series between Boston Y Brooklyn ended with the expected result. The Nets beat the Celtics 4-1 in the first round of the Eastern Conference of the NBA playoffs. The point is that Kevin Durant was impressed with the level of Jayson Tatum.
KD averaged 32.6 points, 7.4 rebounds and 3 assists on the show, but it’s a job that’s made easier when played alongside James Harden and Kyrie Irving. Tatum, on the other hand, charged with the Boston offense, and finished with 30.6 points, 5.8 rebounds and 4.6 assists on average. Including a match of 50 points in game 3, the only duel his team won.
Despite having lost, Kevin Durant was left with the good he saw about Boston’s fourth-year player. During the series, the Brooklyn seven was the main one in charge of marking the Celtics star, and he got a close look at all the talent he had to give.
