On April 14, Beijing time, the NBA Eastern Play-off Hawks hosted the Hornets, three goals and blowing Yang's strong dialogue! The two teams have met 4 times this season, and both sides have won two victories each, so the strength of the two teams can be described as between Bo Zhong.
The Hawks are 2nd in the league in offensive efficiency and 26th in the league in defensive efficiency this season; the Hornets are 9th in the league in offensive efficiency and 23rd in the league in defensive efficiency this season. Both sides have core players who can't play, Hornet Hayward, Eagles side Collins. O'Neill bet in the studio that if the Hornets beat the Eagles, he would stick his hands into the honeycomb for the live performance. The good guys started milking before the game.
At the end of the first half, the Hawks played home advantage, leading the Hornets by eight points at 60-52. I thought that this three-goal and Trae Young would start a big battle against each other, but I didn't expect it to be a "hit iron" battle. In the first half, both stars did not feel good, shooting 3 of 13 from three goals and 3 of 8 from three points for 9 points, 2 rebounds, 4 assists and 1 steal. The scores are all concentrated on the outside line.
The Mayor of New York also had 8 points, 3 rebounds and 6 assists on 3-of-13 shooting in the half, and failed to hit three shots from the outside. Scoring is not enough assists to make up, the first quarter blows Yang Tianwai Feixian does not look at people's wonderful passes, Capela air card position received the ball for the first time, the opponent icing on the cake to send fouls, buckle + penalty to go up! Trae Young has delivered a total of 164 assists for Capela this season, connecting the most duos in the regular season!
The Hornets took a stab at Trae Young, but it also gave the other players on the other side more opportunities to shoot in the open position! The Eagles can lead because the feel of Hurth, Bogdan and others is open. The most impressive of the sect leader was Gallinari, who scored 5 points in a row from close and far in the second quarter, worthy of the Italian cannon!
Easy to fight again, the Hornets did not start the counterattack momentum, and the continuous mistakes actually made the Eagles play. With the power of Hunter and Trae Young, the Hawks blasted down 42 points in the third quarter! 18 points in a single quarter! The Hornets trailed by 26 points 76-102 in the third quarter, a game that was directly spent.
Hunter made a contribution today, with only 3 points in the first half, Hunter shot 7 of 8 in the third quarter, 1 of 1 of 3-pointers, and scored 16 points and 4 rebounds (the Hornets only scored 24 points in the third quarter)! Helping the team extend the lead is a miracle.
What's harder is that the Hornets can't keep blowing Yang all the time, and Trae Young also broke out in the third quarter, contributing 14 points, 4 assists and 1 block on 4 of 8, and also hit the first three-pointer of the game.
There was no suspense in the game, and the Eagles widened the point difference to more than 30 points in the final quarter. There was also a small episode on the court, and with more than 6 minutes left in the fourth quarter, Hornets player Bridges was dissatisfied with the decision, and the referee theory was blown two times in a row, and expelled from the game!
Bridges threw braces at the male fans in the players' tunnel, and it was obvious that the mentality had been broken, and the fans were very puzzled. This action does not know whether it will be punished by the alliance.
But the braces did not hit the male fan, but were thrown at another female fan. Soon Bridges updated twitter to apologize, retweeting a video of himself throwing braces and writing, "Help me contact this young lady." This is unacceptable. ”
Congratulations to the Hawks on their 132-103 home win over the Hornets, who will be battling the Cavaliers for the final playoff spot! The Hornets had no choice but to end this season. Trae Young had 8-of-24 and 1-of-7 three-pointers for 24 points, three rebounds, 10 assists, one steal and one block.
With the addition of Blowing Yang, the Hawks scored in double figures with a total of 6 players in this game. Hunter 22 points, 7 boards and 2 assists, Gallinari 18 points and 3 boards, Capela 15 points, 17 boards, 3 assists, 2 assists, 3 blocks, Hurt 13 points, 5 boards and 4 assists, Bogdan 13 points.

The Hornets lost another 29 points in this game, losing a combined 56 points in the two play-offs!
