Durant and Irving put away Pistons
Superstar tandem shines in much-needed win over Detroit
Kevin Durant and Kyrie Irving are trying to drive the Nets into the playoffs on a high note.
More importantly, both want to be healthy and ready to go come the postseason.
“We just want to be healthy. We all understand what playoff basketball is about,” Durant said after pouring in 41 points and grabbing 11 rebounds Tuesday night in Brooklyn’s 130-123 victory over the Detroit Pistons before a rapt crowd of 17,599 at Barclays Center.
