The Bucks lost, the alphabet brother was defended to 6 of 17, and even 4 turnovers, doesn't it look good?
But when you shift your gaze to the free throw percentage column, you'll find a staggering statistic — 17 of 17 from the free throw line.
Not to mention the difficulty of free throws like Brother Alphabet, even top free throwers like Harden and Curry, it is quite uncommon for them to throw this kind of shooting rate.
What's more, Alphabet Brother's free throw shooting rate in last year's playoffs was only 58.7%.
In just one offseason, it has skyrocketed like this, which is the most terrifying thing about Alphabet Brother - he is evolving every season.
Remember last year's playoffs, what did the big guys say about him: Alphabet Brother's free throws, on average, every 10 times, there were 8 overtime violations.
Looking at his free throw rate this year, it is far better than last year, and it is difficult to find a game in which his free throws need to take up to seven or eight seconds to prepare before shooting.
Many fans compare the alphabet brother with the young Zhan.
They do have similarities: for example, playing the inside line is as unsolvable, such as the free throw has not been too stable, such as the ability to shoot has been criticized by others.
But the difference between them is also very obvious.
As soon as James entered the league, he was a well-deserved proud of the sky, and he was no less vain against the stars of the major teams.
And the alphabet brother? He was still playing as a substitute in his first season, but he was a brother who averaged 6.8 points and 4.4 rebounds per game.
From the annual average data of Alphabet Brother, you can see his progress very clearly. First grade, 6.8 points, 4.4 rebounds and 1.9 assists; second grade, 12.7 points, 6.7 rebounds and 2.6 assists; third grade, 16.8 points, 7.7 rebounds and 4.3 assists; fourth grade, 22.9 points, 8.8 rebounds and 5.4 assists; fifth grade, 26.9 points, 10 rebounds and 4.8 assists; sixth grade, 29.5 points, 13.6 rebounds and 5.6 assists, this year, the personal data peaked.
Players like this have a lot of data every year, the last one called Leonard,
What they have in common is that they have led the team to a certain season of championship + FMVP without being favored by the world. When he won the FMVP, he was still improving, and such a player was the most terrifying.
The mention of the alphabet brother here is not to tout how the player is, but to sound the alarm for the teams.
When your opponent is one such player, how do you go against it? I'm afraid all managers are bothered by this.
In the end, the Bucks lost to the Raptors 96-103.
