Brooklyn Nets at Cleveland Cavaliers
Team Totals: Nets 117, Pacers 107
Injury Report: Darius Garland (Q, shoulder), Collin Sexton (Q, ankle)
Nets projected starters: James Harden, Kyrie Irving, Joe Harris, Kevin Durant, DeAndre Jordan
Cavs projected starters: Darius Garland, Collin Sexton, Isaac Okoro, Larry Nance Jr., Andre Drummond
Nash quotes: Said chemistry will just develop on the floor, said he’ll monitor Kyrie after missing so much time, said Kyrie will be on and off ball, said Kyrie will take some time to adapt to new role, said Harden is still working his way into shape.
Bickerstaff quotes: Said he likes how Okoro can guard everyone, said he likes how Nance is the motor and keeps the offense moving, said 44 minutes for Nance was “a bit much” on Friday, suggested he could play Allen next to Drummond.
Stats and Notes:
*It’s just insane how good KD is. His season-low TS% is 57.7, which is a full percent higher than the league average of 56.5. He’s at 67.5% on the year, and basically his worst game is better than average with upside. The Cavs playing a little slow does take a little off his ceiling and Nance isn’t the easiest matchup for him, but he’s as unguardable as anyone.
