The Lone Ranger narrowly beat the Jazz 110-104 and won the playoffs in the absence of Doncic.
This victory is important, it also boosts the confidence of the lone rangers - they are not unable to fight without Doncic, who says that without a gun, you can't stab anyone? It also means that at least five games will be played in this series, which has bought valuable time for Doncic's return.
In the post-match dressing room, Doncic was overjoyed and decided to perform a talent for his teammates to sing directly to Bronson and Kleber: Listen to me thank you, because of you, warm the seasons; thank you, thank you, the world is more beautiful. I want to thank you because of you...
Before the halfway point of singing, the teammates directly knelt down: Dongzi don't sing, they are all their own people!
Dongzi was full of resentment: I don't want to make a contribution too.
Bronson: Well, Toshiko, the next time you sing to Mitchell. Or you can teach Mitchell and have him sing to Gobert.
The Lone Ranger dressing room erupted in applause, and they were impressed by Bronson's wit. There is courage and strategy, worthy of the real exploration of flowers.
First, who said that the first round of flowers is considered a hero
The biggest contributor to the Lone Ranger's win is none other than Jaylen Bronson. Shot 15-of-25 from the field, 6-of-10 from the outside line, 41 points, 8 rebounds, 5 assists, 2 steals and 0 turnovers!
It was the first 40+ in the playoffs, and Bronson also became the first player in Mavericks history to cut a 40+ and make no mistakes.
Bronson: Little fat man, look good, study hard.
In fact, the last lone ranger can fight with the Jazz to the end of the defeat, Bronson is also the greatest, he played 41 minutes, 24 points and 7 rebounds are the highest in the team, teammates can not play the ball have to be carried by him. Then non-Maverick fans may wonder, who is this Bronson? Before, I only heard that doncic of the lone ranger was powerful, and my sister had heard of such a number one person.
Bronson is actually a rookie in the same year as Doncic, and he is also the third pick, but Doncic is third in the first round and Bronson is third in the second round. It should make no difference if they are all third, so Lone Ranger fans affectionately call Bronson "True Detective Flower".
That being said, there is one thing that can be intuitively reflected in the gap between the two: Bronson's rookie contract is 6.11 million for 4 years, and only 1.8 million this year, while Doncic is 32.46 million for 4 years and 6.56 million for the first year.
Of course, this is easy to understand, Doncic is the proud son of heaven, and Bronson is just an older mature man of average height and position and conflict with Doncic. By the way, he also helped his alma mater Villanova University win the NCAA championship in his junior season, which further proved that he was an older mature man who didn't have much potential to develop.
For the first three years he had been in the team as a substitute for Doncic, and he seemed to have slowly accepted this positioning himself until the arrival of Coach Kidd.
He played a total of 66 starts in the first three years, and this year he played 79 games and started 61 games. Ever since Kidd's swing a month and a half before the season, Bronson has been set to start.
This season he averaged 32 minutes per game, 16.3 points, 3.9 rebounds, 4.8 assists and 1.6 turnovers, so the stats have improved significantly compared to last year. Kidd believed that putting Bronson by Doncic's side would give him the utmost support, and he was right.
Bronson is a typical revolutionary brick, where it needs to be moved. Can hold the ball without the ball, there is no dead end in the attack, and there are attacking methods from far, medium and near - there is a breakthrough, the middle distance is all above the league average level, and 37.3% of the three points are not accurate but threatening.
The league is 24th in the league with a 50.2 percent shooting percentage this season, leaving aside the center who are only inferior to the Suns' Bridges, James, Durant and DeRozan. Brain clear enough, career assist turnover ratio is basically 3:1, which is probably Kidd's favorite place.
The only disadvantage may be the height of 185, which limits his ability to solve hard problems at key moments, but also limits his passing vision, and he does not have the natural open-hanging vision of Paul and Yang Yang.
After a season of meticulous nurturing by Kidd, Bronson finally opened the most delicate flower in this game today!
Second, sirs have no secrets
In addition to Bronson's supernatural play, there is another person who is crucial, and he is Kleber.
He finally scored three points, and it was 8 of 11, and he scored 25 points.
As mentioned in the prediction, the Lone Ranger's five-outer lineup is a weapon against the Jazz. The key point inside the five is Kleber, the offensive end needs him to shoot three points, and the defensive end needs him to stand in the fifth position.
There was a message at the bottom of the article that day that said that "the lone ranger's five outside is already in the past tense, and Kleber can't score three points."
I can understand the message because since entering March and the end of the regular season, Kleber is shooting 11 of 56 three-point range and shooting 19.6 percent. What is 0 out of 6, 0 out of 7 is a common thing.
But in this game he was finally able to shoot three points, and at this time, the Lone Ranger's five-out was dedicated to Playing Gobert.
The lone ranger's final lineup is Bronson + Dinwiddie + Bullock + Electric Fan + Kleber. When the Jazz saw that Kleber was so accurate, he certainly couldn't let Gobert go right, so he let Gobert go to the right electric fan.
At this point, bronson's brain was clear, and finally he finished the block and dismantled a hard way to find the electric fan, and the electric fan shot two three-pointers in the fourth quarter, including 2 minutes and 24 seconds to turn the score into a key three-pointer of 107-102.
Gobert looked at the electric fan in the bottom corner, full of the shadow of Mann in last year's Western Conference semifinals, why start again, is it over?
The Jazz all saw that Gobert was being bullied and began shooting three-pointers with Mitchell as the lead, hitting a personal offense. It can be seen that the relationship between the two is still good, and Mitchell has personally played for Gobert.
As a leader, Mitchell fully demonstrated his "refusal attributes" at both ends of the offensive and defensive ends. He scored 34 points and five assists on 13-of-30 shooting, including 7 points on 3-of-11 shooting in the final quarter, and the basket was going to be smashed. Refusal to vote is to refuse to invest, so it is easy to understand.
So the Jazz played the classic script again: the classic fourth quarter could not score the points and was overturned, the classic Gobert shot 5 times, the classic Mitchell tumor attribute, it is recommended to fast-forward directly to the baggage scattered.
O'Neill once said to Kobe Bryant: "I only know one thing: you have to let a big dog take care of your home, you have to give it big bones to eat, you have to feed it." You can't let it sit and fart. ”
I didn't think it before, but after seeing Gobert, I found that the French people have a really good temper.
The Lone Ranger scored 1-1 to the Jazz.
Thanks for reading it all!
