“Ain’t no way Enes Kanter Freedom is splashing threes on the Nets”: NBA Twitter goes on a frenzy as Celtics center swishes one from downtown while Nets extend their losing streak to 9 games

Enes K Freedom dropping a three is running rounds on social media in the middle of all the big trades news and rumors.

As James Harden missed his third straight game with left hamstring tightness, Kevin Durant remains out with a sprained knee ligament, and Kyrie Irving‘s ineligibility to play home games, the Brooklyn Nets got under the hammer of Boston Celtics.

Without their three superstars, the Nets weren’t competitive at all and lost their 9th straight giving C’s a 126-91 victory, making it their fifth 30-plus points victory in the last 9 games. This win also brought the Celtics their 6th straight victory, tying the Raptors for the best winning streak in the East this season.

While each of the Nets starting-5 failed to score in double digits, Jayson Tatum and Co had 4 starters scoring 10+ points in a free-flowing game where they shot over 55% from the field and 35% from the 3-point line. Jaylen Brown had yet another player of the match night.

Celtics had a 26-point lead to begin the 4th quarter and so everyone in the Boston uniform felt they shouldn’t be left behind in trying their hands out from the 3-point line.

Enes K Freedom swishes a 3 and Twitter goes berserk

In a game where almost every Celtics player had an attempt from the perimeter, the last man anyone wanted to see shoot a three would be Enes K Freedom. But the center had a go at it, and to everyone’s surprise, he made his only attempt from the downtown.

On the night flooded with trade news, his 3-pointer by Freedom sent NBA Twitter on a frenzy.

Even the Nets fans wished it to be a dream that would never come true.

Meanwhile, a C’s fan tried to have some fun offering Freedom for Harden on a Nets fans’ Twitter space.

Both these teams look to have swapped places compared to when this season started. While everything has started clicking for the Celtics, the Nets struggle to get even one of their regular starters. Also, they literally have exchanged places in the Eastern Conference standings.
