The Nets have solidified their spot in the NBA playoffs, clinching the seventh seed and a first-round matchup against the Celtics after beating the Cavaliers 115–108 in Tuesday night’s play-in game. But Kevin Durant isn’t happy about how one of his teammates gave their opponents bulletin board material.
Nets forward Bruce Brown talked after the game about what his team can do to win the battle against Boston. The key, in his opinion, is to take advantage of the Celtics not having injured center Robert Williams on the court.
“Now they don’t have Robert Williams, so they have less of a presence in the paint,” Brown said. “We can attack [Daniel] Theis and [Al] Horford in the paint. Them not having Robert Williams is huge.”
