The Cleveland Cavaliers beat the Brooklyn Nets without Kevin Durant 125-113 at home today, and defeated Kyrie Irving in two consecutive games, the “powerful” in the Eastern Conference after the return, which surprised people. The Nets also gave them a gift, helping the Cavaliers to rise all the way in the Eastern Conference rankings.
In these two games, the Cavaliers played extremely powerful offensively. The last game was extended and scored 147 points (113 points in regular time). Today, they scored 125 points in four quarters and scored a total of 272 points in the two games. .
Interestingly, the Cavaliers are the team with the worst offensive efficiency in the NBA this season. Before this game, they only scored 103.1 points per 100 possessions, and their scoring average was also the second lowest in the league.
In the previous 9 games, they have not scored more than 100 points, and the record is 2 wins and 7 losses. The Nets are simply giving away money in snow.
This also directly reflects how big the Nets’ defense problems are. Today, they were completely blown up in the paint, rebounding 29-50 behind their opponents, and the penalty area scored 46-70.
In the last game, KD was still there. They didn’t lose so ugly, but the rebounding was still a disadvantage. They scored 48 to 64 in the penalty area.
The appearance of the Nets after forming the Super Big Three is really shocking. The stars are fighting each other and the team can’t organize an effective defense. Steve Nash’s coaching staff should be under pressure.
However, after the game, Nash still said: “I don’t want to overreact yet.”
