Finals-worthy matchup awaits Nets in second round
NY Post
For Brooklyn, the Celtics were just a teaser. Now comes the real test.
The Nets dispatched Boston in a gentleman’s sweep, and find Milwaukee — a team they lost the season series to — waiting in the Eastern Conference semifinals. It’s a matchup of star-studded Big 3s that some say is more befitting of the NBA Finals. “They’re a great team and they’re tough to deal with,” Kevin Durant said. “We respect everybody on their team. We know exactly what they bring to the table. We’re just going to go out there and have fun playing the game of basketball. We’re going to challenge each other. You know they’re going to challenge us and vice versa. May the best team win.”More Related News
