BOSTON — Offensive rebounds, turnovers, poor transition defense, and touches for Seth Curry, all underscored by a particularly poor shooting night for Kevin Durant.
The film from the Nets’ one-point, buzzer-beating defeat in Game 1 shows a team that fought hard for about 44 minutes. But a three-minute stretch at the top of the third quarter and the final minute of regulation unraveled a valiant effort and spoiled a game the Nets almost stole at TD Garden.
Now it’s back to the drawing board. It’s back to the film room for a team with adjustments to make for Game 2.
