Durant's sensational performance sends Nets to 3-2 series lead over Bucks. MORE:
out, Durant played all 48 minutes and shot 16 for 23 from the field. The four-time scoring champion had 20 points in the fourth quarter, perhaps the biggest shot a 3-pointer with 50 seconds left and the Nets protecting a one-point lead.
“I woke up and was like, ‘You know what? Let’s go,’" Harden said."I tried to go out there and do the best I can. Hopefully I gave my teammates some encouragement and some life.” But he didn’t appear to have full strength in his leg, leaving jumpers short and rarely beating anyone on the dribble.“Special performance by him," Bucks coach Mike Budenholzer said."Credit to him, some tough shots, so we've got to look at it, figure out getting better.”
The Bucks still led by 16 midway through the third quarter, answering every time the Nets seemed to have any momentum. But Durant then got hot and never really cooled off.
