Bucks 120-119 Nets!
Exciting, so exciting, a regular season game played the flavor of the entire round of playoffs in last year's Eastern Conference Semifinals. Durant singled out the beams, the alphabet was a three-pointer, the Bucks took a slight lead in overtime, Durant did not hit the letters of the free throw penalty kill, and the Nets regretted the loss.
The Nets have done almost everything, but the Bucks are the defending champions after all.
1. Middleton's heinous criminals are expelled
In the fourth quarter of 5 minutes and 05 seconds, the alphabet bottom line hit Zhuang Shen, Durant came at the right time to pinch the attack, the alphabet passed the ball wrong, and Brown snatched to counterattack.
When counterattacking, Brown did not accelerate at full speed at the first time, looked back at the pursuer behind, and saw that it was Middleton who was relieved.
As a result, just when he rushed to the front court to try to take off the dunk, Middleton grabbed his arm and threw it from the sky.
At this point, it is pointless to discuss whether Middleton is deliberate, because this action is too dangerous. Athletes are very vulnerable in the air, and when there is an external force to intervene, it is difficult for them to protect themselves, and they do not know in what position they will land in the end.
Brown braced his wrist first, and without the slightest preparation, his wrist was easily injured.
So after the referee replayed, Middleton was directly expelled, which had nothing to do with whether it was intentional or not, only related to the bad nature of the action.
After Middleton was ousted, Brown hit two free throws, Irving scored a throw, Durant faced Matthews and scored a three-pointer, the Nets countered Owen's pass to Durant, and then the Nets challenged in 3 minutes and 43 seconds to successfully obtain the ball.
The Bucks' side missed a variety of offenses, alphabet jumped to the ball but was mistakenly dialed out of bounds by teammates, and alphabet had previously hit 11 consecutive free throws, which were also broken at this stage, and two penalties were missed.
The comparison between the two is not difficult to see that the momentum of the game is completely on the side of the Nets. Middleton's ouster not only gave them one less scoring point, but also knocked the Bucks out of bound, and the Nets led by nine points in less than four minutes, which seemed to be a huge advantage at the time.
But in competitive sports, the most feared thing is that the game is not over, and the athletes feel that the victory has been packed in their pockets. The person who walks a hundred miles is half ninety, and finally one foot in the door will overturn if he does not pay attention.
The Nets had a noticeable slack after taking the lead, causing a shift in momentum and laying the groundwork for a reversal.
Second, the buck's fixed sea god needle and super giant letter brother
The first thing that the Bucks fixed on was not the letters, but Zhu Ge Holliday.
After Middleton was ousted, it was Holliday who first hit the three-pointer. Then in the position battle, he completely controls the ball to organize and mobilize the Bucks' entire team's attack.
Driven by Zhu Ge's calmness, the letters slowly stabilized.
At 2 minutes and 27 seconds, the letter counterattack caused a foul on Chuang Shen, and after the last two missed two free throws, the Bucks chased 103-108, which was already a clear signal.
But on the Nets side, in addition to Durant, others seem to be still in the lead, there is not much sense of urgency, and Durant has to shoulder the attack and defense.
Then Zhuang Shen caused a foul on the front court board and missed two free throws, Zhu Ge turned back and misplaced Curry to hit Curry with two free throws, and the score was chased to 107-110, and the Bucks were only 3 points apart.
The Nets have only had Durant pulled in a mid-range shot to score 2 points in the last 3 minutes, and the victory they thought was in their pockets was pulled out by the Bucks, and the momentum was transformed again.
He actually had a better chance before the letters were finally tied by three points. It was 55 seconds before the finale, and Curry crossed the bridge with three points.
Alphabet got the rebound to the frontcourt to hand over to Brother Zhu, who broke through zhuang shen to the inside line to attract the Nets five-man defense, and passed back to the letter that was completely empty at the top of the arc.
There was no problem with the Nets' choice, no problem with the letters, and he couldn't see the slightest hesitation before after receiving the ball, and he shot directly in one go, but with a little more force, smashing the basket's neck.
But it is precisely because of this missed hand that there is a more wonderful draw later.
In 18 seconds, he faced Zhuang Shen and pretended to make a three-point shot after a sudden step. It was probably alphabet's worst approach, but he scored, drew, scored his 42nd point of the game, and also made the Bucks' career total score surpassed Abdul-Jabbar and came to the first place in team history!
From a Greek peddler to a hairy boy with the 15th pick in the first round, to the league's top superstar today. Step by step, the self-helper God helped, I can only say that he is too strong!
You can dislike letters, but without myopia above 2000 degrees, it's hard to say that letters aren't strong.
At this time, the momentum was completely reversed by the Bucks, and overtime was extremely unfavorable to the Nets.
Three, the vanished Owen
Like last year's seven-time grab, everyone knows what overtime means for the Nets.
Durant has played a full 48 minutes in last year's seventh, and the 5-minute overtime is too long for him, and Harden, who only has one leg to move, next to him.
Today's Durant didn't play the first 48 minutes, but also played 40 minutes. In the last 3 minutes of the third quarter, when Irving went off the field to rest, and durant's support was needed for attack and defense, Durant's physical fitness was already in trouble.
Durant was supposed to play five minutes before the break in the fourth quarter and wait until he had seven minutes left, but he only rested for 3 and a half minutes before returning.
Because he couldn't come back, his teammates couldn't attack at all, and Alphabet counterattacked with the ball.
What's going on?
At the beginning of the fourth quarter, Durant was resting off the field, which was supposed to be Irving's time, but Owen did not know what was going on, nor did he know whether he was listening to God's holy word, and he suddenly disappeared from the field.
It's not that he doesn't attack, he doesn't take the ball, he seems to have suddenly lost all his desire to attack. This state lasted throughout the fourth stanza and overtime.
Because of Irving's disappearance, Durant had to return to the court early, and the Nets seemed to have become Durant's single-core team.
The Nets scored nine points in overtime, Durant scored six points on a three-pointer plus three free throws, Brown made two free throws and Clarkston scored one point on one of two free throws.
What was Irving doing on the court when Brown and Clarkston were needed to make fouls and take free throws?
So why did Owen disappear?
First of all, because Brother Zhu is strong, Brother Zhu is really too powerful, from the offensive organization to clamping Irving to changing the defense of Durant, he is capable of all.
But No matter how strong Zhu Ge is, he can't let Irving not shoot it, Irving only shot once in the extra 5 minutes, including the Nets' final possible kill, Irving did not have a little contact with Durant.
Owen's mode of suddenly thinking about life on the field, what is going on, I'm afraid no one knows except himself.
After winning the Nets, the Bucks won two in a row, and Lian Keqiang was strong. Alphabet also played two extremely impressive matches:
Played Philadelphia, 40 points, 14 rebounds, 6 assists, 1 steal, 3 blocks, won the emperor;
This game against the Nets, 44 points, 14 rebounds, 6 assists and 1 steal, won Durant.
The Bucks are followed by the Clippers, Lone Rangers, Bulls, Celtics and Pistons, and the first four games are hard battles, which means that the alphabet stage is big.
If he can continue this performance, the third MVP will be waving to the letters.
The Bucks are 48-28 and second in the East; the Nets are 40-37 and eighth in the East.
Thanks for reading it all!
