On April 27, Beijing time, the 2021-22 NBA playoffs continued. In today's Eastern Conference focus game, the Hawks went to the road to challenge the Heat, and after 48 minutes of fierce competition, the Eagles finally lost to the Heat 94:97, thus being eliminated by a score of 1:4, and the season ended.
The Eagles lost again today, which is directly related to the poor performance of the star Trae Young. In the whole game, Trae Young played 41 minutes and shot only 2 of 12, including 0 of 4 from three-point range and 4 of 5 from the free throw line, totaling only 11 points, 8 rebounds and 6 assists, in addition to 6 turnovers. In the crucial final quarter, Trae Young scored no goals, scoring three points on free throws alone, and missing a key penalty in the final moments, which led the team not to narrow the point gap.
It is worth mentioning that before the start of today's game, Trae Young bluntly said that he was going to attack the Heat's interior line today, he said: "No matter when, I can reach the box, I can throw, create opportunities for myself or help my teammates get empty seats." I haven't broken into the box much in this series, and the Heat's defense has done a good job, but I can do it into the box, I can throw, I can let my teammates participate in the attack, and entering the box is the starting point of everything! ”
However, in today's game, Trae Young did not do it, he had 9 of the 12 shots in the whole game outside the paint, including 5 three-pointers, 1 of 4 from mid-range, and only 1 of 3 under the basket.
In fact, throughout the series, Trae Young's performance was terrible. The five games were only: 8 points, 6 rebounds and 4 assists, 25 points, 6 rebounds and 7 assists, 24 points, 4 rebounds and 8 assists, 9 points, 1 rebound, 5 assists, 11 points, 8 rebounds and 6 assists, and the shooting was only 12 of 1, 10 of 10, 14 of 6, 3 of 11, 2 of 12, a total of only 69 of 22; three-pointers: 7 of 0, 10 of 2, 6 of 2, 10 of 3, 5 of 0, a total of only 7 of 38, and a total of as many as 30 mistakes.
After today's game, Trae Young and the Hawks ended the season. The results of the season are undoubtedly disappointing for the 23-year-old young rising star, who still has a long way to go.
