The MVP of the night | Kevin Durant rocks New York

This guy is sick! With him, everything seems easy… Since arriving at the Nets, Bruce Brown has already witnessed the exploits of Kevin Durant, but tonight he was left speechless. It must be said that the double NBA champion was immense to allow the Nets to win 110-107 against the eye-catching Knicks since he compiled 53 points, 9 rebounds and 6 assists. Just one point off his career high…

Admittedly, he needed 37 shots to score 53 points, but he hurt very badly at key moments in the game. As in the “money time” with this 3-pointer which frees the whole room, and his free throws at the end.

“What can we say about Kevin? “ asks Tom Thibodeau. “His career speaks for itself. He is able to chain like that, and you basically try to send the whole team on him and force him to score complicated baskets… ”

Evan Fournier, very good last night, often found himself defending against him, and he could only see the damage.

“He’s fast, athletic, and he’s seen every defense possible. That’s why he’s a great player.”

“The thing is you can send him as many defenders as you want, be physical with him, as soon as he gets up his shot is so fast and he’s so big…” sighs the Frenchman. “It’s just him and the basket. It is obviously difficult to defend. He’s quick, athletic, and he’s seen every defense possible. That’s why he’s a great player. “

The duel between Durant and Fournier sometimes reached heights, as in the first quarter, or when on an isolation, Durant chambered Fournier explaining to him that he was “too small” (see photo above).

Irving absent for the reasons we know and Seth Curry forfeited at the last minute, Durant transformed the match into a “one man show”.

“I felt like we were short on points without Kyrie, Seth, LaMarcus” Durant lists. “I’m at a point in my career where I wonder how I can impact everyone? How can I make opposing coaches think about their game plan? I feel like I’m raising everyone’s level of play, and that’s a really good feeling.”

It’s a little presumptuous to believe that he raises the level of everyone’s game, but you have to admit that we saw a very good game, and that may be because the Knicks are there. are put together to slow it down. But he had the last word…

“He’s one of the best players in history to do that, and it’s hard to stop when he’s hot like that” concludes RJ Barrett. “It was a close match, we had chances. But the shot he takes a minute from the end was a huge shot. “
