Kyrie Irving scored 22 points on 9-of-22 shooting in Thursday's Game 3 loss to the Bucks, adding five rebounds, one assist, two triples and three steals over 45 minutes. Analysis: Both Kyrie and Kevin Durant struggled offensively throughout the game, with the superstar duo combining to go 20-of-50 from the floor, and while Irving didn't commit any turnovers -- KD coughed up the rock four times. Despite the Brooklyn stars struggling, the Nets only lost this one by three points, and Durant nearly sent the game to overtime with a shot at the buzzer that just happened to rim out. Durant finished with 30 points, 11 rebounds, five assists, three triples, four steals and one block in the loss.
