Aldridge had a great career and we hope he is healthy and safe going forward Reggie Perry Face Mask. Cheers to a great player and a great career. Stay ready. DeAndre Jordan was out of the rotation, but came back this week and looked pretty solid all things considered. Sure Joel Embiid poured in 39 points, but DJ played tough and pulled down 14 rebounds. The Nets rotation of bigs will be DJ, Nicolas Claxton, and Blake Griffin. Each brings something unique to the table and as Steve Nash sharpens the rotations and gets the guys ready for the playoffs, wel see who stands out the most. Speaking of stay ready, shouts to the Nets bench. They made the team proud by almost pulling off a massive comeback on Wednesday night and as the stars look to regain their rhythm, having guys like Alize Johnson, Bruce Brown, etc on the squad will always give the Nets a sense of toughness and fire that will help to push them across the finish line. When you need a day, take a day. Kyrie Irving sat out the Timberwolves game and came back Wednesday ready to rock and roll. He put up a dazzling 37 points and did damage against Ben Simmons and Mattisse Thybulle, two of the best defenders in the league. Irving is able to pressure defenders and make life impossible for whoever guarding him. He helps the Nets play at a fast pace and allows their offense to stay a tier above the rest of the league. Terry Rozier, I hope youe ready to do some heavy lifting. With all of the Hornets best players sidelined, he gonna have to carry the offense in a major way tonight. Like everyone else in basketball, he taking more three pointers this year and is shooting a snazzy 40. 4 percent from deep. The Hornets get loose with the ball, and considering their depleted roster, that spells danger. Charlotte has the third worst turnover rate in the NBA this season and one big run could knock them out early. Player to watch: Miles BridgesWithout Hayward and Ball, someone's got to step up and do more. In steps Mr. Bridges. He gotten better each year he been in the league and is shooting career highs across the board. At only 22 years old Bruce Brown Pillow Cover, he part of an exciting wave of talent in the Queen City that will have them competing for the playoffs for years to come. Kevin Durant is back tonight and will be looking to keep the good times going. He was magnificent on Tuesday and scored a smooth 31 points in 27 minutes. His minutes per game have increased each night he been back and as he keeps knocking the rust off, Brooklyn will become even more formidable. KD didn play both ends of the back-to-back this week, and Brooklyn has a New Orleans - Toronto (well, Tampa cause of COVID) b2b next week, so hel more than likely sit one of those games out. In the meantime, hel keep getting to his spots and doing damage from all over the court. From the VaultLet take you back to LMA best playoff game
