The Brooklyn Nets‘ struggles at the Barclays Center this season continued on Saturday night, and following another disappointing performance, the Nets are on the verge of being swept out of the first round.
Jayson Tatum was the best player on the floor, leading the Celtics with 39 points, while the Nets’ superstar duo of Kevin Durant and Kyrie Irving failed to deliver.
Durant took just 11 shots in the game and finished with 16 points, a stunningly quiet night for the former MVP, while Irving shot 6-of-17 and also scored 16. If it wasn’t for Bruce Brown, who posted a season-high 26 points, the Nets likely would have been facing a blowout.
