CIATB Chapter 347 The end of the season and the arrival of the playoffs
Chapter 347 The end of the season and the arrival of the playoffs
The rankings in the West have also been settled.
After the "Christmas War", the Golden State Warriors accelerated the running-in of the team. Since then, the entire team can be described as "people block and kill, Buddha block and kill Buddha", and finally won 70 victories!
This is the result of their special team rest at the end of the season.
Otherwise, another 73 wins would not be out of the question.
It’s just that Steve Kerr has not forgotten that last season, in order to break the best record in the history of the regular season, he still strived to win every game at the end of the season. As a result, in the finals of last season, he played the fourth and fifth games of the series. At that time, the physical fitness of the entire team began to have problems.
Instead, because of the record of 73 wins and 9 losses, he was nailed to the pillar of shame...
This time, after confirming the No. [-] ranking in the Western Conference, he decisively used the end of the season to give the Warriors a rest.
Stephen Curry and LeBron James both gave enough rest time.
Everything is to win this year's O'Brien Cup!
In second place is the New Orleans Hornets.
There are many super teams this season, with the Golden State Warriors in the West, the Chicago Bulls in the East, and the defending champion Columbus Explorers.But the New Orleans Hornets still maintained their momentum, and finally got a record of 65 wins. Although there is a gap of nearly 5 games with the Golden State Warriors, but with top teams like the Bulls and the Columbus Explorers, There is only a gap of 2 games. They don't have the background of a championship, and they don't have a situation where superstars like the Bulls get together. Made it together.
Various reports from the New Orleans media tell of the difficulties in New Orleans this year. Of course, the purpose is naturally for James Harden to win this year's regular season MVP trophy.
It's just that compared to the beginning of the season when most of the media was optimistic about the rise of James Harden as a new force, the current media opinion is not only focused on him.
Westbrook's "little Li Wan" level performance has won him a lot of support.
And the strongest opponent at present is Li Wan, a behemoth.
Barkley's "goat theory" brought him back to the center of the league's media vision.
As Barkley said, four regular season MVPs are too few for Li Wan.
He's far from saying goodbye to the regular season MVP...
Especially since January, Li Wan won the next three "Best of the Month" trophies, the player who won the most "Best of the Month" throughout the season, and even won the fifth regular season MVP in his career The trophy added a bit of restlessness!
The New Orleans media is very clear that at this time, James Harden's only advantage is...
The gap between New Orleans' lineup configuration and these top tycoons.
And it's not easy being a small city.
Everyone knows that David Stern, as the president of the league, has always had an attitude towards the MVP of the regular season in small cities...
The third is the Portland Trail Blazers.
After the introduction of the British Ruhr Deng last summer, the team's flank defense has been well guaranteed, which allowed them to finally achieve a record of 60 wins and 22 losses!
The fourth is the Spurs.
There is nothing to say, it is entirely Leonard's performance at the super giant level, this season he can contribute 25.8 points, 3.5 assists, 5.5 rebounds and 1.3 steals per game;
After Tim Duncan, the head of the Spurs with the most stats!
The fifth in the West is the Grizzlies;
The sixth in the West is the Clippers;
The seventh in the West is the Thunder;
The eighth in the West is the Kings;
……
With the final eight in the East and West, the dust settled.
The rankings of the major data lists this season also have final results.
Li Wan started to explode this season in January, and his average scoring in February and March was close to 1 points per game...
But because the scoring average in November and December was not high, Li Wan's scoring average this season was "only" 11 points.Narrowly defeated Westbrook, who averaged 12 points per game, and won the "scoring champion" again.
This is the sixth time in his career that he has won the "Scoring Champion"!
There are still as many as 10 times away from Michael Jordan's 4 "scoring champions"!
Looking at the leopard in the tube, we can see how fierce Michael Jordan's firepower was back then...
However, if you think about it, if goat is so good and comprehensively surpassed, then it is not goat!
You know, the NBA has been in development for 70 years, and it took more than 70 years for such a goat to appear... It is a strange thing that it is not awesome!
But after Li Wan won the sixth championship trophy in his career, the media agreed that Li Wan has a high probability of tying this record. After all, Li Wan was only 6 years old in 17, if calculated according to his date of birth , he is still a hundred days away from turning 29.
After another 4 years, Li Wan will only be 33 years old at that time. He is not a reckless man who can only break through. His projection ability and other skills are perfectly developed. There will be no technical problems. The decline in scoring ability, at least not before the age of 33...
Of course, there is a prerequisite, Li Wan must not have any major injuries.
In this regard, judging from the current situation, Li Wan is undoubtedly an "iron man"!
In fact, this is really important for a player to realize his potential talent and tap the upper limit.
除了场均37.8分外，李万本赛季还拿到了10.9个篮板以及7.9次助攻还有3.1次抢断以及1.8个盖帽。
The average of 10.9 rebounds per game can be ranked 10th in the league.
The decline in the number of assists is a bit severe, but it can still be ranked 6th in the league.
With an average of 3.1 steals per game, Li Wan won the "Steals King" for the third time in his career.
With an average of 1.8 blocks per game, it can also be ranked 8th in the league.
This also makes Li Wan the only player who ranks in the top ten in the league in all five statistics this season.
If you count the data of the two "conferred kings", it will be quite a blast throughout history.
Obviously, Li Wan can still contribute all-around statistics even if he plays the "give the ball to Li Wan tactic" that focuses on his personal offense.
That's right, it's been all these years, and Li Wan is used to it.
The "Rebound King" ultimately belongs to Whiteside, who averaged 14.1 rebounds per game. He is also the only player with more than 14 rebounds per game this season.
Given that the Heat haven't even made the playoffs this season, Whiteside, the "rebound king", has enough moisture to allow 1 Heat fans to surf on it.
The "Assist King" belongs to James Harden. This is the first "Assist King" in his career, averaging 11.9 assists per game.
From the second position to the first position, James Harden's adaptability can really be adapted with "amazing".
Of course, many media also attribute this to D'Antoni, calling James Harden "another masterpiece of D'Antoni."
But behind the average of 11.9 assists per game is a shocking average of 5.7 turnovers per game!
But considering that he himself is not a traditional No. 5.7 background, coupled with the amazing offensive and defensive conversion speed of the New Orleans Hornets, it is actually quite normal to average [-] turnovers per game.
Didn't look at his "good third brother", Westbrook, who won the title of "Little Li Wan" this season, also averaged 5.4 turnovers per game, followed by him, ranking second?
The "block king" belongs to Rudy Gortat, averaging 2.6 per game.
The French are still as supportive as before.
But from his average number of blocks per game, it can be seen that in the current league, as the tactical status of the three-pointer has improved, and the entire space has been stretched very large, it is no longer a simple matter to complete the block. up.
Then there is the three-point list...
Li Wan surprised everyone again.
The final total of three-pointers this season is as high as 354, ranking first in the league.
You know, Li Wan only played 69 games this season...
Even if he only plays 80 games, Li Wan will score 5.13 three-pointers with an average scoring frequency of 410 three-pointers. Then Li Wan will shoot more than 400 three-pointers for two consecutive seasons!
The ferocious three-point state is simply amazing!
The entire league is saying that the Warriors' "Five Deaths" have promoted the trend of the entire league's style of play, especially the promotion of the three-point tactical status, which is even more historic.
But now it seems...
It is true that the Warriors pushed the trend, but in the end they released a "big devil"!
If it was 14 years ago, no one would have thought that Li Wan's three-point shooting ability could reach such a perverted level!
In addition to the number of three-pointers per game and the average number of three-pointers made per game, Li Wan's three-point shooting rate also dominates the list. He can contribute 46.5% of the three-pointers per game!
How exaggerated is this data?
Let's put it this way, in the last two seasons of Kobe's career, his average shooting percentage per game is not as good as Li Wan's average three-point shooting percentage this season...
Kobe:? ? ?
In other words, from efficiency to quantity to average output per game, Li Wan has completed the "one-stop" dominance of the rankings, making three-pointers another synonym for him!
Barkley described it as: "The new goat of the alliance has conquered areas that the old goat has never conquered!"
As a result, that night, Michael Jordan gave him an "encrypted call"!
In addition, on the "iron strike list", Westbrook's total "iron" output of 1115 yuan, with an average output of 13.8 yuan per game, is far ahead of everyone in the league.
Seeing this data, Li Wandang even "enlightened" it!
No wonder Kobe said that Westbrook is the most like him in this league!
between……
It's really too similar!
It is worth mentioning that the second place on the per-game iron list is called "DeMar DeRozan"!
Ok……
Another guy who idolizes Kobe....
Li Wandang sent screenshots of the names of the first and second names on the "Strike List" to Kobe, and specially marked the number of strikes of the two people: Look, once you leave, this alliance is all you!
Kobe was so angry that he immediately pulled up the "Little Black Mamba" and urged him to start practicing: "Two more sets, two more sets, when can I last for 5 minutes without stopping the ball, and then rest!"
The "Little Black Mamba", who has practiced 10 sets of crotch dribbles today, is wrinkled all over his face.
This dad is terrible, he wants to complain to his "Godfather"!
As Li Wan wished, "Little Black Mamba" began to miss him as the "Godfather"...
The nostalgia was so strong that Li Wan even sneezed.
On April 4th, the first award of this season had its final result. The NBA "Best Rookie" in the 14-16 season finally belonged to... Malcolm Brogdon!
There has been no suspense for this award since March.
But when the award was announced, the media still made a lot of reports.
Stories about Brogdon spread across the streets and alleys of the United States in an instant...
Brogdon's winning of this award not only gave Columbus the first "best rookie" in their history, but he also created an NBA record. He is the first since the NBA has the "best rookie award". A player who won this award as a second-round pick!
Brogdon immediately uploaded a photo of himself with the "Best Rookie" trophy, and at the same time thanked Li Wan on Twitter: I can become the final "Best Rookie" because of Li Wan's help relation.
He also uploaded a picture of himself playing heads-up with Li Wan privately.
Soon Li Wan commented below:
Dude, don't make it seem like you've had much success!And... In the photo, why do you have a front view and I only have a back view?
Are you implying that I will be your "background board"?
This message quickly attracted a large number of comments:
"It's true, Broguero actually wants to be the big brother!"
"Shocked, the Columbus Explorers team has been conflicted for a long time, and the reason is..."
"It can be seen that Brogdon has been dissatisfied with Li Wan for a long time!"
……
Not to mention, some media really took this as evidence of Columbus' "discord within the team" and compiled a mysterious and mysterious list of conflicts within the Explorer team.
In addition to the "Best Rookie", the league also announced the "Best Sixth Man" award this season. Louis Williams, who averaged 14.9 points per game, became the "Best Sixth Man" for the first time.
At the same time, the media made predictions for the eight-group matchup between the East and the West.
With the final eight finals of the East and West finalized, this year's playoffs also have the final list of the eight matchups.
In the East, the No. [-] Columbus Explorers played against the No. [-] Milwaukee Bucks; The Dragons; the fourth Nets are facing the Wizards;
The four matchups in the West are Warriors VS Kings; Hornets VS Thunder; Trail Blazers VS Clippers; Spurs VS Grizzlies;
Due to the large gap in strength between the East and the West this year, in the eyes of the media, there will not be too many anxious situations in the first round of this year, and it is estimated that there will be many "4-0" situations.
This also makes these 8 duels a lot less interesting.
Most of the media and experts have always believed that in the first round of this year, the only interesting series is the Hornets VS Thunder.
That is the duel between Westbrook and James Harden!
At the same time as the media analysis, most teams also ended their last joint training before the start of the playoffs.
Golden State, Steve Kerr looked at everyone and said very seriously: "Guys, we have another perfect season, but the lessons of last season are still in sight, so guys, cheer up , the war has just begun from now on!"
In Chicago, after Kevin Durant finished training, he specially pulled everyone into an extra practice.
The excitement the Hawks had after winning the regular season really pissed him off.
And it's the kind of unhappiness that gets worse the more you think about it!
no……
Who is not a 67-win team?
Why don't you fight Li Wan, just be so lucky?
"Game [-] of the playoffs, guys, we've got to give 'em a head-on right from the start!"
Set a small goal...
A big victory of 20 points!
There are high-spirited teams and there are teams with low spirits.
For example, the Bucks who just arrived in Columbus this morning and are about to start the first game of the playoffs with Columbus.
Especially for "Brother Antetokounmpo", as much as there is no future in that expression, there will be no future at all.
As the head coach, Joe Prati would like to say something to inspire the fighting spirit of the "future of the league".
But he thought about it for a long time, and finally couldn't find an angle that could comfort "Brother Antetokounmpo".
别看“字母哥”这个赛季的表现很不错，场均可以拿到26.9分10篮板4.5助攻1.5抢断1.4盖帽的数据。
but……
跟哥伦布探索者队的4场常规赛，他的场均数据却是凄惨的场均11.5分7.6篮板3.2助攻，投篮命中率不足40%，三分球命中率更是差点连20%都没有。
This is the case in the regular season, let alone the playoffs.
Consolation also needs to be reasonable and present the facts. You said, in this situation, what did you ask Prati to say?
However, he had nothing to say, but the league gave "Antetokounmpo" a certain amount of confidence.
On April 4th, when the season's playoffs kicked off, the league announced the "Most Improved Player Award" for this season. Although "Antetokounmpo" played poorly in the 15 games against the Explorers, But his performance at other times of the season was indeed eye-catching enough, and in the end he also successfully won this award.
It just so happened that among the four matchups on the first day, the Explorers played against the Bucks at home.
The excited Milwaukee media shouted: "Let everyone see your progress, Giannis!"
After seeing this report, "Brother Antetokounmpo" suddenly felt that his head was two big, and he wanted to write a letter to complain about that reporter immediately...
No!
Don't piss off those stinky and shameless Columbus!
They dared to play "iron bucket formation" with me in the regular season. What do you think they dare not do?
Unfortunately, Tyronn Lue also saw this report from Milwaukee. Before the first game of the series that night, he specifically mentioned this matter: "Antetokounmpo has made amazing progress this season. This allowed him to win the most improved player award this season, in fact, no one dares to let his guard down for such a player!"
In other words:
I've prepared a big "defensive meal" for this dude.
When "Brother Antetokounmpo" heard the news, he shuddered suddenly, and he was even more resistant to the game that night.If possible, he really wants to get the timing watch of a certain island country movie hero...
Not for anything else, just to make tonight's game time never come!
He wished time could pass a little slower.
The fans of Columbus felt that the passage of time was too slow, why is it still dark!
After waiting for a season, they finally ushered in the first playoffs in the city of Columbus. They are really looking forward to this day!
When the arena security informed that they could enter the arena, countless fans rushed into the auditorium immediately.
Among them, many fans can be seen wearing the number 25 jersey of the Cavaliers...
People from Cleveland spontaneously came to Columbus to support Wan Li!
With 2 seats, it was extremely crowded tonight. ——In order to carry the enthusiasm of the whole Ohio, the arena added more than 5 seats in the playoffs, but now it seems that this is just a drop in the bucket and completely useless.
And the boos of more than 2 fans are undoubtedly suffocating.
The Bucks became the first batch of people in the league to taste the suffocation...
Boos from all over the mountains and plains rushed to their faces, making their low fighting spirit even more precarious.
ESPN set up a commentary booth at the scene tonight.
Bill Wharton listened to the cheers of the Columbus people. He knew very well that the Grand Navigation Arena, which had already won the "Devil's Home" in the regular season, would become famous after tonight!
This fiery enthusiasm is really too easy to affect the away players to play here.
Especially for an inexperienced team like the Bucks who are on the road to reconstruction.
And soon, Bill Walton discovered that the already suffocating atmosphere was just an "appetizer". When the arena's home ceremony came, that atmosphere was the one that really didn't leave a way for the visiting team to survive... …
All the bright lights on the scene were collectively turned off, and more than a dozen searchlights were shot from all directions, and finally the Columbus team logo was formed in the center of the stadium.
The live DJ's slightly deep voice said at this time:
"Let's welcome...'Dragon King' Chris Bosh!"
With just one sentence, the scene set off a "tremendous wave".
Chris Bosh made his domineering debut, and a "roar of the dragon king" brought a new wave of cheers.
Until Li Wan appeared on the stage, the cheers of the audience never stopped.
Even after the home appearance ceremony was over, there were still bursts of cheers.
Amidst the cheers, the big screen at the scene showed the starting lineups of both sides:
"Columbus Explorers: No. [-] Brogdon, No. [-] Li Wan, No. [-] Wiggins, No. [-] Chris Bosh, No. [-] Adams;
Bucks: Matthew Dellavedova at No. [-], Middleton at No. [-], Jabari Parker at No. [-], Antetokounmpo at No. [-], Monroe at No. [-];”
There are three highlights in this round of the series between the Explorers and the Bucks:
The first is whether "Brother Antetokounmpo" can break through the "iron barrel array" of the Explorers who has repeatedly embarrassed him;
The second is whether Middleton's three-point output can keep up with Li Wan's output;
The third is the duel between Jabari Parker and Wiggins, the 14-year "No. [-] pick" and the "No. [-] pick"...
Antetokounmpo's improvement has been one of the Bucks' biggest gains this season...
In addition to "Antetokounmpo", Jabari Parker, who suffered a major injury in his rookie season, averaged 20.1 points, 6.3 rebounds and 2.8 assists per game this season.
It was also the "two-gun merger" between him and "Antetokounmpo" that made the Bucks finally reach the playoffs again.
Squeeze the Pacers, a team with Paul George-level super giants, out of the playoffs...
Just because of his fragile physical attributes, Jabari Parker suffered from various minor injuries and ailments this season. He only played 50 games throughout the season, and only played 4 of the 1 games against the Explorers... …
It is also for this reason that a small group of media, mainly reporters in the Milwaukee area, think that maybe the Bucks can cause some trouble to the Explorers because of him!
"Come on, everyone, let's win this game!" Li Wan called everyone to form a circle before the game started.
He wanted to hit a wave of climax at the beginning...
Because he knows very well that the current Bucks are only one Budenholzer and one big Lopez short of the Bucks when they won the championship, and the strength of the entire lineup is not bad.
They just lack experience...
For this kind of youth army, as long as they are confused at the beginning, there will be no problem!
But if you let them play more and more, maybe they will really play a "superman" state.
You must know that "Antetokounmpo" is the future MVP of the regular season, and Middleton once became the "Mi God", including Jabari Parker, who was definitely among the "future superstars who fell due to injuries" in the 10s number one.
And just standing in front of the Columbus Explorers at this moment is a relatively healthy Jabari Parker.
In the sound of the referee's "beep", the game officially began.
Adams successfully grabbed the initiative for the team.
Amidst the cheers of the audience, Brogdon gave the ball to Chris Bosh in the frontcourt.
Bosh faced "Antetokounmpo", and was completely enveloped by the latter in the breakthrough with the ball.
As a representative player of the league with long arms and legs, Bosh's static talent has always been the best in the league, but he is still completely shrouded by "Brother Antetokounmpo". From this, it can be seen that this "future regular season MVP" has a body. How wonderful.
But Bosh didn't panic at all, rushed to the high position, and immediately turned around and gave the ball behind him.
As soon as the ball got there, Columbus No. 25 also appeared immediately.
At the same time, Chris Bosh sank and held "Antetokounmpo".
As the defensive pillar of the entire Bucks, "Antetokounmpo" bears more than 70% of the team's defense burden, so when he was resisted, Li Wan got rid of Middleton again, and an open field immediately appeared in front of him.
Li Wan easily hit the opening goal.
3-0!
With such a smooth start, the cheers that had just disappeared for a while filled the entire scene again.
"Defense!"
"Defense!"
"Defense!"
And as Dellavedova held the ball across the half, the shouts on the scene turned into a unified "defense" again.
The atmosphere of the playoffs is overwhelming.
"Antetokounmpo" holds the ball outside the three-point line.
A scene that was hard to believe 30 years ago: a player with a height of 2 meters or more holding the ball outside the three-point line to organize an offense has now become a very common scene in this league.
From Chris Bosh to Kevin Durant, this group of big men have proved with individual talent that big men can also attack from beyond the three-point line and play game-impacting performances.
Ok……
Except for Embiid!
It's just that although "Antetokounmpo" is used to attacking from the outside, at this moment he is holding the ball and facing the defensive formation set up by the Explorers, he is embarrassed.
Li Wan and Wiggins faintly formed a double-team situation, and at the same time Chris Bosh and Adams' "one up and one down" positions blocked more possibilities for him.
Again!
Again!
Here we go again!
During the regular season, these guys were in such an "iron barrel array" that made him feel like his whole body was bound, his whole body was fixed into a shape, and he couldn't move. That was called "insecurity".
Determined that he rushed in in such a daze, he might not be able to pass the ball, so he chose to give the ball to the eager Jabari Parker next to him.
The latter has no worries about "Antetokounmpo", especially standing in front of Wiggins, who has been overwhelming him since the 15 high school rankings were released, and even in the draft, he still suppressed him. Si, he immediately put on the "triple threat posture" skillfully, ready to attack.
Parker averaged 49.2% field goal percentage and 36.5% three-point field goal percentage this season!
He didn't like shooting three-pointers at first, but in order to adapt to the current trend, it took only one season to practice a good three-pointer, which is enough to show his talent on the offensive end.
Wiggins chose to interfere with his body. Parker saw that he could not force Wiggins back by pretending to break through, so he simply broke through with the ball.
But Wiggins' physical talent was revealed at this time, he kept up with his footsteps well, and he could continue to interfere.
Just as Parker entered the high position, Li Wan next to him unceremoniously double-teamed him.
"Levi double-teams"...
Parker is a retro-type three-position player. One of his templates is Carmelo Anthony. He is proficient in various offensive methods. Not only is he like him in offensive methods, but he is also like Carme in the "triple threat" Long Anthony.
Like "Melon", his skillful "three threats" are actually only "two threats":
The pass button was picked by him!
Li Wan's vicious name obviously made these juniors very afraid. All kinds of confrontations by Wiggins did not make Parker back half a step, but when Li Wan rushed over, Parker decisively chose to pass the ball.
It was only when he turned his head to look for someone that he discovered that Chris Bosh had also sneaked up at some point and just passed the ball into his hands.
"Iron Barrel Array"...
Not just for "Antetokounmpo"!
Chris Bosh, who was holding the ball, turned around and wanted to break fast. After "Brother Antetokounmpo" forced him to stop, he quickly gave the ball to Li Wan's hands.
Now the Bucks can only watch Li Wanyi ride Juechen.
"Bah!"
One step inside the free throw line, Li Wan jumped high, gliding and hacking the ball into the basket.
5-0!
The Bucks served again in the backcourt.
"Brother Antetokounmpo" chose to come by himself this time.
The Explorers didn't hesitate about Jabari Parker because he just passed the ball to Jabari Parker, and they are still firmly confident in "various double-teams".
And "Brother Antetokounmpo" is obviously very afraid of the "iron barrel array" of the Explorers. He just took a step towards the three-point line, and he was 2 steps away from the double-team circle of the Columbus Explorers, so he immediately turned around. Passed the ball.
The ball was in Middleton's hands. As a typical pitcher in this league, his shot adjustment speed was very fast, but as soon as he raised his hand, Wiggins had already made it in front of him.
After hesitating for a while, when he passed the ball towards Jabari Parker, Li Wan also completed a precise defense switch with Wiggins, defending in front of Jabari Parker.
While waiting for Parker to try singles, the Explorers gradually formed a "Tietong formation" against each other.
Bill Walton is completely affirmed now: "Tonight the Explorers are obviously going to use high-intensity forcing to test the Bucks' two young ball-handling cores, and want to see their ability to handle the ball!"
To put it bluntly, I still want to catch the shallow experience loopholes of these two young Bucks.
As for the effect...
Jabari made a mistake in the last pass in the last round, and the Bucks have only the last 24 seconds left in the 7-second attack time. They have not yet had a suitable offensive opportunity, which is enough to show that the effect is very good.
"Dangdang!"
In the end, the round ended with Middleton hitting the iron after receiving the ball again. Adams steadily protected the rebound, and Monroe was stuck behind him. He really didn't have a temper at all.
Seeing this scene, Bill Walton already wanted to sentence the Bucks to death.
The attack from the outside line is already slow, and there is no guarantee of rebounds. The Bucks may be even more afraid to shoot from the outside line!
Sure enough, in the next attack, the Bucks waited until the last 4 seconds of the attack time before choosing to make a shot.
Jabari Parker took the last shot.
The ball bounced on the rim, but still fell out.
When Li Wanchong succeeded in grabbing the rebound, the cheers on the scene reached their peak.
The entire venue is as if boiling water has reached its boiling point.
On the opposite side of Li Wan's fierce attack with the ball were the faces of the Bucks when they retreated.
A "pass the ball without looking at people", Li Wan handsomely gave the ball to Wiggins who shot out from the flank, and after finishing the dunk with one hand, Wiggins shook both hands violently in the face of the cheers of the audience when he landed. He clenched his fists and let out a loud roar.
This sound made the cheers on the scene once again 8 degrees higher.
It also made the Bucks coach have to call a timeout.
Counting the success of the last attack, the Columbus Explorers started the game with a wave of 9-0 scoring. They made all 4 shots. So far, the Columbus Explorers have not missed a shot.
Tyronn Lue yelled at the top of his voice: "Keep this momentum, guys, let's end this game at the beginning!"
The effect of "Iron Barrel Array" is really good!
In his opinion, if the Columbus Explorers didn't score 20 points in the first round, they didn't perform well!
One by one, the Explorers returned to the court full of momentum.
Compared with them, the Bucks on the opposite side had a much lower momentum.
Apparently, this pause did not regulate their emotions.
It can also be seen from the first attack back on the court that the Bucks are even more afraid of the overall defense of the Explorers.
Especially "Antetokounmpo", his shortcomings in his shooting ability are undoubtedly revealed at this moment.
The Explorers didn't confront him in advance at all, they put him in a high position, and then formed a "heavy double-team" to intercept him, and he couldn't rush into the basket at all.
Can't use projection to pose a threat from the outside.
It also makes it impossible for him to force a greater change in the Columbus Explorers' defensive formation with the ball in his hand.
The point difference was further widened. At 5 minutes and 13 seconds of the first quarter, the Explorers had already scored a wave of 15-0.
At this time, Jabari Parker suddenly found a fiery touch, using his skillful singles, first pushed Wiggins away from the three-point line, completed a long-range shot, and helped the team win the game. A 2-pointer, and then in the next round, catch and shoot, a shot from beyond the three-point line helped the Bucks get another 3-pointer.
5 points in a row...
While controlling the point difference to 12 points, the Bucks finally had a reliance on the offensive end!
But his exertion also aroused Wiggins' desire to attack.
Then he also began to try singles.
The first quarter of the first game between the Bucks and the Explorers series seemed to be a 14v1 "bullfighting scene" where the "No.
Watching Jabari Parker attack with the ball.
You have to sigh that God is really unfair. Such a talented and hard-working guy, but gave him continuous injuries, making him a "mediocre person", and some people have bad brains, and they live in the live broadcast every day. A guy with a gun can still sign a big contract with a unit of [-] million, and enjoy life with his thick rice.
