In short, the Nets stink. Their iso-heavy brand of basketball is predictable and overly relies on Kevin Durant and Kyrie Irving’s ability to hit a high percentage of contested jumpers. Their defense isn’t much better. Like the Mavs, they struggle to contain dribble penetration and rotate in unison. If you want a wide-open corner 3 against them, you’ll get it. And yet, fans should still be weary because of the fact that Kevin Durant is still a top 5ish basketball player on the planet and capable of rendering your defensive schemes useless. If he gets hot and has one of THOSE games, there is little you can do to stop outside of hoping your offense is up to the task of matching fire with fire.
