On January 4, Beijing time, the NBA Pistons challenged the Bucks away, the Pistons are the second-to-last team in the league, the Bucks are the defending champion team, Giannis Antetokounmpo, Zhu Holliday, Chris Middleton These 3 cores played, it seems that the Bucks have no reason to lose, but they never expected that the Pistons played a cold! In the third quarter, the 2 teams scored 87-85, the Pistons led by 2 points, and in the fourth quarter, the Bucks shot 11 irons from 17 and shot as low as 35.3%, and the alphabet brother was struggling to support, but in the end they still lost the game.
The score was 115-106, the Pistons won 9 points to win 2 consecutive games, this is the first time this season the Pistons have won a winning streak, the Pistons played a cold, this is the reason, this game Grayson Allen three-pointers 8 shots 7 iron, Chris Middleton three-pointers 6 shots 5 iron, George Hill three-pointers 5 iron, the bucks three-point shot 46 shots 35 iron in the whole game, bad projection is the key point of the Bucks' loss, and in addition to the Bucks themselves do not play, One of the Pistons' youngsters exploded in this game, he scored 34 points to crush the defending championship team, and his 25 points in the last 9 games is indeed a little amazing?
Sadiq Bay was selected by the Pistons with the 19th pick in the first round of 2020, and he played the No. 3 position in this game with a height of 203cm, which is the same position as the Bucks' alphabet brother, who shot 31 points + 10 rebounds + 7 assists + 52.3% of the 21 shots in the whole game, and Sadiq Bay shot 34 points + 8 rebounds + 4 assists + 50% of the 11 shots from 22 shooting, the alphabet brother is slightly better, but 8 of Sadiq Bay's 11 shots are three-pointers. In other words, his individual three-point shots are only three times less than the Bucks' team, which is a critical hit...
Sadiq Bay is obviously not as strong as the alphabet brother, but he has his own advantages, his three-point shot is very accurate, he expanded the Pistons' advantage points in this game, he hit the Weakness of the Bucks, it is not an exaggeration to say that without the outbreak of Sadiq Bay, this upset probability does not exist, and Sadiq Bay's excellent performance is not a theory, the Pistons' swing this season is not meaningless, at least from the current point of view, they have cultivated a high-quality 3D forward.
Sadiq Bay has a 38% three-point shooting rate in the rookie season, he can average 2.5 three-pointers per game, this season the Pistons have the intention to cultivate Cade Cunningham, Killian Hayes, but unfortunately these 2 are a bit out of the wall, Hayes currently shoots 34.1%, Yuanlang Cunningham shooting rate of 38.9%, during the swing period these 2 did not play the ideal data, which indirectly makes Sadiq Bay's overall data seem average, after all, there are only so many balls.
Fortunately, Sadiq Bay has been getting more performance opportunities recently, he has averaged 13.9 shots per game so far this season, and in the last 9 games he has averaged 17.6 shots per game, the number of shots has increased, and his data has become stronger, and the average data of Sadiq Bay in the last 9 games is 25 points + shooting 44.3% + three-point shooting rate of 38.4% + free throw shooting rate of 92.9% + 8.6 rebounds + 3.2 assists + defensive efficiency value of 108, which is close to the All-Star data. He also killed the Spurs during this period, and if he can continue his recent play, the pistons' youngster is now hopeful that he will become a top 3D in the future, right?
