On April 18, Beijing time, the 2021-22 NBA playoffs continued, with the Heat sitting at home to meet the Hawks. In this campaign, Duncan Robinson became the protagonist, scoring a game-high 27 points. In the end, the Heat beat the Hawks by 24 points to win the series opening and rewrite the big score to 1-0.
In this game, Dunro's performance was too dazzling, shooting 9 of 10 from the field and shooting 90% from the field. It was 8-of-9 from three-point range, shooting 88.9 percent from three-point range. Dunroe thus achieved a milestone, with eight three-pointers to set a single-game playoff record in The Heat's history. The previous record was held by Damon Jones, Mike Miller and Dunro, all three players who hit seven three-pointers in a single game in the playoffs, including Dunroe doing it three times, mike Miller and Damon Jones once each.
In addition to Dunroe, Tucker also has a good performance. Tucker shot 6-of-8 and shot 75 percent from the field. It was 4-of-4 from three-point range, shooting 100 percent from three-point range. In the end, Tucker had 16 points, 5 rebounds and 1 assist. Butler was also stable, cutting 21 points, 6 rebounds, 4 assists and 3 steals. Lowry made a wedding dress for his teammates, and although he only scored 10 points, Lowry contributed a game-high 9 assists to revitalize the Heat's overall offense.
The Eagles, on the other hand, were suppressed by the Heat throughout the game. In the first half, the Hawks made 2-of-18 three-pointers across the team, which is hard to imagine. However, the second half improved, and throughout the game, the Hawks made 10 of 36 three-pointers. Trae Young was also targeted by the Heat, with Trae Young making 12 of 12 in this game, including 0 of 7 from three points, eight points, six rebounds, four assists and two steals, and six turnovers. When Trae Young was limited, the Hawks' offensive system was nearly paralyzed, and the whole team did not know how to score.
In this campaign, Trae Young shot 8.3% from the field, equaling his career record. In addition to this, 0-of-7 from three points also caught the attention of fans. According to statistics, this is the second most three-point shot in Trae Young's career game. All indications are that the Eagle Black Eight does not exist, and it is almost impossible to cross the Heat level. If you can win 2 games in this series, the Hawks have achieved their goal!
