On February 11, Beijing time, the 2021-22 NBA regular season is in full swing. In a battle of focus that just ended, the Suns and Bucks faced off for the first time of the season, and the Suns beat the Bucks 131:104 at home, avenging last season's finals defeat to their opponents.
The reason why the Bucks lost today is directly related to the poor performance of the star alphabet brother. In the whole game, Alphabet Brother played 30 minutes, only 5 of 14 shots, including 0 of 3 three-pointers, 8 of 14 free throws, and only 18 points, 7 rebounds and 8 assists, and 3 turnovers, plus or minus -18! Considering that Alphabet Brother scored 44 points, 14 rebounds and 8 assists in 17 of 20 shooting in the last game, today's performance can be said to be very abnormal.
In addition to the poor performance, there are two scenes of alphabet brothers today that are easy to cause everyone to discuss. In a defensive round in the third quarter of the game, Suns star Ayton blocked Paul, then turned and cut into the inside line, Paul sent a high-altitude pass, Ayton received Paul's pass and directly blocked the letter brother!
Also in the third quarter, when the Suns executed the penalty, Alphabet Brother and Suns star Wrightka bit. As a result, the alphabet brother raised his elbow and hit Wright's chin directly, although the alphabet brother quickly came forward to express his concern for Wright, but he was still blown by the referee for a first-degree malicious foul.
In the last quarter of the game, due to the large point difference, the alphabet brother was replaced early. It has to be said that losing to last year's finals is undoubtedly a morale-crushing injury to the Bucks. The two teams will meet again on March 7, when the Bucks will return home.
