On May 2, Beijing time, the NBA playoffs continued in full swing. In the previous playoff first-round series, the Greenshirts, who successfully advanced to the Eastern Conference semifinals with a big score of 4-0, finally welcomed the Bucks challenge at home. As a team that has been neglected in the East this season, the Greenshirts have finally gained the recognition of the league and become the biggest obstacle to the Eastern Conference's championship-winning teams. That's right, judging by the greenshirts' stunning performance in the first round of the playoffs, the Bucks want to defend the championship, I am afraid it is not so easy.
Although the individual performance of The Alphabet Brother in the first round of the series was amazing, the team still had some unavoidable injuries. Middleton, the second leader of the team, had to be sidelined due to a knee injury, and the overall offensive aggressiveness of the Bucks was affected to a certain extent. Facing the Boston Celtics, who are integrated in attack and defense, It is obvious that there are still some difficulties in the alphabet brother who want to continue to show his unparalleled ability to score in the inner penalty area. And this time the two sides ushered in the first game of the second round of the playoffs, what kind of sparks will burst out between the two sides?
At the beginning of the game, the Green Army double probe playing at home was not in the form, Tatum shot 0 of 4 in the first quarter, Brown 3 of 1, and once gave the Bucks the initiative to take the lead. Alphabet Brother quickly entered the state, the first quarter of the game time sent 6 points, 5 rebounds and 4 assists of the full stats, and helped the team to 27-24, to get the lead in the initiative. The game began with a feat of domination, and the Greenshirts wanted to restrict alphabet brothers like Durant, which obviously still didn't work.
After entering the second quarter of the showdown, the Bucks, who are in a lead in the score, can also follow the trend and further widen the point difference between the two teams. In the second quarter of the competition, he sent 8 points, 3 rebounds and 3 assists, leading the team to play a 29-22 score. By the end of the first half, the Bucks were already a key 10 points ahead of the Greenshirts. The two teams were only halfway through the game, and the point difference continued to widen, and the aspiring champion-minded Bucks clearly had a better chance of winning the game.
The ability of the alphabet brother to impact the inside line is really unreasonable, and in the 20 minutes of the half, he sent out a comprehensive stat of 14 points, 8 rebounds and 7 assists, helping the team to win the opponent's key 17 points! At the same time, There are 3 of 4 three points on the bench, and Grayson Allen, who delivered a key 9 points, 1 rebound and 2 steals, also played the role of a miracle soldier, effectively helping the team relieve the pressure on the scoring end. Team two Middleton is out of the team due to injury, and the Bucks are still a very resilient team, and they are invincible.
On the other hand, the Green Shirts, which play at home, are frequently blocked on the offensive end, and there is no player in the team who can compare with the comprehensive data of alphabet brothers. The star Tatum, in the 21 minutes of playing, is only with 3 of 10 inefficient shooting rate, sending 9 points, 3 rebounds and 2 assists, failed to help the team establish an advantage, and Brown is not in good shape, only 8 of 2 in the first half of the poor shooting rate. Looking back at the first half of the competition, the Bucks' three-point shooting rate reached 50%, shooting rate reached 45.5%, if it were not for the Celtics' ability to fight back, the point difference between the two sides would be even greater.
