After the NBA Eastern Conference playoffs seat was determined this season, the defending champion Bucks, in the first round, encountered the beginning of the season was very optimistic, the final stage of the regular season was reduced to the bulls of the pseudo-strong team, in the first two games between the two sides, the unpromissed Bulls relied on DeRozan's rampage, tenaciously pulled the big score to a 1-1 draw, coupled with the unexpected injury of the defending champion Second Home Middleton, let the Bulls smell a trace of the breath! But the double MVP winner Alphabet Brother, and then with a very dominant personal performance, completely extinguished the bulls' fantasy, in the two games in Chicago, the Bucks won more than 20 points, the fifth game back to Milwaukee, the Bucks certainly do not want to give the opponent to delay the opportunity to delay the series, this campaign Lavine's absence is to widen the gap in strength between the two sides, and finally the Bucks under the leadership of the alphabet brother, 116-100 victory over the Bulls, to eliminate the opponent by a 4-1 score, Advance to the Eastern Conference semifinals with their heads held high, and their opponent will be Lu Kai, who swept the Nets in the first round!
Azan does not praise, nor does the god of war
The reason why the Bulls can become a dark horse team in the eyes of fans at the beginning of the season has a lot to do with the addition of several strong reinforcements, but in this life and death battle, DeRozan and Vucevic were not able to carry the team's offensive banner in the absence of LaVine, of which Vucevic hit 8 goals in 15 shots, including 3 of 9 three-pointers, although he got 19 points, 16 rebounds, 6 assists and 2 blocks, but the personal offensive efficiency is not high. DeRozan, who has high hopes, has a very low sense of existence, only 11 points in the whole game, and the performance of the two cores is obviously unable to help the team win the final victory of the game.
With DeRozan and Vucevic all kneeling, the Bulls' second-year show Williams became the team's best performer, scoring a team-high 23 points on 9-of-13 shooting, which is why many fans said after the game that the Bulls were the only ones who died standing alone.
People are more popular than dead people, and The alphabet brother shows superpower his dominance
The same player with a big contract, but DeRozan, Vucevic's coffee position, is far from being comparable to the alphabet brother, in this game, the alphabet brother completely dominated the basket, due to the early loss of suspense in the game, his appearance time in this game is only 30.1 minutes, but it is extremely efficient, 11 goals in 15 shots, and 33 points, 9 rebounds and 3 assists.
After playing a threat on the alphabet inside and compressing the Bulls' defense to the maximum, the Bucks also got a lot of opportunities to shoot three-pointers, but championship guard Holliday felt cold in the game, only 1-of-7 outside the three-point line, but the two major substitutes Allen and Connaughton felt hot, and the two hit a total of 9 three-pointers, helping the team end the suspense early.
After winning this game, the Bucks took the first step on their way to defending their title, in the Eastern Conference semifinals, they will encounter a first-round performance, sweeping the Nets' green Kai, and Tatum will usher in the peak duel with Alphabet Brother after defeating Durant on both ends of the offensive and defensive ends, how their two cores perform, will also directly determine which team can appear on the stage of the divisional finals!
