The Brooklyn Nets are in a desperate need of a win in Game 4. They are down 3-0 to the Boston Celtics and are looking to win the game at home to remain in the playoffs. Against a powerful Boston team, they will need to overcome a number of issues to advance. But they need to stay strong as they will be relying on two star players – Kyrie Irving and Kevin Durant – to carry the team to victory.
The first key to Brooklyn’s season is that they need to keep the momentum they’ve gained in recent games. The Nets’ success will depend on their defense and the way they play. Fortunately, the team is loaded with talented players who can score and rebound. However, their lack of chemistry is a serious problem.
The Knicks and the Nets had a very tough game last night. Kevin Knox bounced back from a rough start with a strong performance and scored 17 points. He also hit big shots late in the game with defenders in his face. He also made 3-for-4 three-pointers. He took over Lance Thomas’ starting unit in the fourth quarter crunch time minutes. As long as they play clean, exciting basketball, the Knicks and Nets are a matchup to watch.
Giannis Antetokounmpo scored 44 points, grabbed 14 rebounds and dished out six assists. This performance puts him back in the MVP race. The win also ensures Milwaukee’s playoff spot, its sixth consecutive appearance. This is the second-longest streak in franchise history.
