In the second half of the game, the Suns broke out, on the other hand, the Nets' offensive state declined, so in the third quarter of the game, the Suns successfully completed the overtake, but in the fourth quarter of the game, Thomas suddenly began to break out, so the Nets also took the lead again, but at the critical moment Durant and others helped the Suns score, so the Suns were only 3 points behind the Nets, and then the two teams played chaotically, and at the critical moment Dinwiddie scored 5 points in a row, Durant, Booker scored a free throw to stop the bleeding, but Thomas responded later, and the Suns lost to the Nets in an upset.
The Nets are all in this game, especially Dinwiddie and Thomas have an excellent play in this game, Thomas's three-point explosion is to help the Nets take the lead, and at the critical moment Dinwiddie stepped up again, and then Goodwin almost stealed, but unfortunately the Nets stabilized the ball, and finally Thomas went to the free throw line to help the Nets score 2 points, and finally in this case the Nets successfully won the game.

And Durant still has a good state after his comeback, Durant got 27 points, 6 rebounds and 4 assists at the end of the game, although the Suns should not lose the game, but seeing that the Suns Big Three are already healthy, for the Suns, they need to let the Big Three play better chemistry next.
