Nets' Gaming Crew to play in 2K League's ECF, Kevin Durant amped for playoff matchup

The Brooklyn Nets may have fallen one game short of the Eastern Conference Finals, but Nets'Gaming Crew locked up a berth after knocking off Philadelphia on Friday night. The NBA's official e-gaming league doesn't exactly showcase a matchup of the real league's top heavyweights, but 2K fans, Kevin Durant, James Harden and Kyrie Irving may draw inspiration from this playoff run.

Durant is one of the game's cover athletes alongside legends Dirk Norwitzki and Kareem Abdul-Jabbar.
