Bucks don't just have alphabet brothers
DeRozan's miraculous performance was only one game, and despite Middleton's injury, the Milwaukee Bucks still led the Chicago Bulls 2-1. So, the key to game four of the series is self-evident, if the Bulls can hold the home court, then the series will become a best-of-three game, but once lost, it will fall into a desperate situation of 1-3 behind, and the fifth game is still at the home of the Bucks, you really can't find any reason to believe that the Bulls have a chance to successfully qualify.
In other words, Game 4 of the series, most likely the Bulls' last home stadium, regardless of the outcome, Lavin and DeRozan and Vucevic, should be in the best form and not let the fans here down. As for the Bucks, they have alphabet brothers, but not only alphabet brothers, and the defending champions' lineup depth is scary enough.
The race was one-sided
At the beginning of the first quarter, LaVine stepped forward, shooting 5-of-8, 2-of-2 three-pointers, with 12 points, 2 rebounds and 4 assists, Vucevic also had 6 points, 4 rebounds and 2 assists, DeRozan 4 points and 1 steal, and trident together to get 22 points, which was also the bulls' full score in the first quarter. The Bucks had 25 points, including Holliday with 8 points and 1 rebound, Portis with 7 points and 3 rebounds. After returning from the second quarter, The Alphabet Brother still only had 7 points, 4 rebounds and 2 assists, but the Bucks shot down 31 points in a single quarter.
The Bulls were in a scoring drought, with DeRozan only having 2 points, 1 rebound and 1 assist on 1-of-5 shooting, and the team only scored 19 points. So, at the end of the half, the Milwaukee Bucks led the Bulls by as many as 15 points at 56-41. In the second half, the Bulls tried to fight back, DeRozan had 9 points, 3 rebounds and 1 assist, Williams also had 8 points and 2 rebounds, LaVine 8 points, 2 rebounds and 3 assists, and the team bombed 33 points in a single quarter, at this time, alphabet brother stood up, 13 points, 4 rebounds and 2 assists on 7 shooting, helping the Bucks to stretch the point difference to 16 points.
In the final quarter of the game, DeRozan worked hard, scoring 8 points, 1 rebound and 1 assist on 3-of-7 shooting, but Vucevic had no confidence and did not make a single shot, Lavine only had 4 points, 1 rebound and 3 assists, and the Bulls only scored 21 points. Alphabet brother lightly scored 7 points and 7 rebounds to lead the Bucks to a 119-95 victory over the Chicago Bulls, and the series scored 3-1 to get the match point.
54 points lost in 2 games
In the past two games, the Bulls have lost by 30 points, a 24-point fiasco, and a 54-point loss in two games, which undoubtedly tells us that they and the Bucks are not a team of the same level at all, and once again confirm the claims of the East's pseudo-strong team. DeRozan had 23 points, 5 rebounds and 3 assists, magic is no more, Lavine has 24 points, 5 rebounds and 13 assists, Williams also has 20 points and 10 rebounds, as for Vucevic, 5 of 14 shooting, only 11 points, 10 rebounds and 2 assists, Caruso only shot 1 time, no points, 4 rebounds, 4 assists, 1 steal and 2 blocks.
Alphabet Brother once again showed his strength, shooting 11 of 22, bombing 32 points, 17 rebounds, 7 assists and 2 blocks, a well-deserved superstar. Holliday also had 26 points, 2 rebounds and 7 assists, and Allen continued the fiery three-pointer feel of the previous game, this game was 10 of 12 shots, 7 of 7 three-pointers, 27 points and 2 rebounds, and the total of 14 three-pointers in the two games was 11 of 14. Portis also had 14 points and 10 rebounds, and the Bucks hit 17 three-pointers and made just 33 shots, shooting more than 50 percent. I have to say that such a bucks team is still unstoppable.
