The Nets’ best rotation played only two postseason games before losing a key piece in Jeff Green. The Nets veteran — who suffered a strained plantar fascia in his left foot — will miss at least the remainder of the first-round series against the Celtics. His loss was felt in Game 3.
The void of Green’s versatility had its fingerprints all over the Game 3 loss Friday. Brooklyn’s floor spacing was restricted without Green on the floor resulting in stagnant offense other than the iso ball using Kevin Durant and James Harden which did keep Brooklyn in the contest.
