When the Green Army swept the Nets, many fans thought that the Green Army had a chance to win the championship, Tatum and Brown both played well, they were able to sweep the Nets, the strength is not bad. However, in the first game against the Bucks, the Green Army revealed its original form, not that the Green Army is very strong, but that the Nets are very poor! Alphabet Brother proved this with action, and gave Durant another slap, leading the Bucks to punch the Nets in the face. At one point, the Bucks led by 17 points, and the last 12 points were completely won, and it was easy to play. Imagine if the Nets were to meet such a Bucks, would they lose even more ugly? Fortunately, they didn't meet in the first round.
The Green Army defends Alphabet Brother in the way of defending Durant, constantly packing him up and not allowing Alphabet Brother to easily break through the inside line. Normally, the alphabet brother should play worse, because the alphabet brother's shooting ability is far inferior to Durant, even Durant continues to play iron, the alphabet brother is not more difficult? However, the alphabet brother got 24 points, 13 boards and 12 assists, although 9 of 25 shots, the scoring efficiency is indeed not high, but got the triple-double data, personal plus-minus +23. Although the shooting rate of the alphabet brother is not high, the offensive and defensive ends can stand up many times and solve the game in their own way.
The data of the alphabet brother is undoubtedly a slap in the face to Durant, and the gap between the two is obvious. When the two faced the Green Army, they were tightly defended, and both had to play as an organizational striker, which tested their passing ability. It's clear that in this respect, the alphabet gobby durant is doing a better job. Alphabet brother gave 12 assists, although there were also 5 fouls, but overall well done. You know, in the first game, Durant only had 3 assists, but he delivered 6 turnovers. This is also the biggest difference between the two, Durant's dribbling and organization ability is not strong, when there is a lack of organizational points around, it is very passive.
Alphabet brother and James are about the same type of player, they not only have excellent scoring ability, but also excellent ability to handle the ball. This is also a point that Durant lacks, which is why Durant has not won a championship since leaving the Warriors, and even difficult to reach the division finals. When he was in the Thunder, Durant also had difficulty taking the Thunder to win the championship, and it was for this reason. Durant has excellent shooting ability and a variety of offensive methods. But his dribbling and organizational skills are ultimately inferior to those of Alphabet Brother and James, which makes it difficult to lead the team further.
This playoff, Durant's weakness was exposed. In the past, when he was in the Warriors, there was Curry and Green around, and the two could be responsible for passing and opening up space, so Durant had a lot of empty opportunities and was rarely wrapped up. Even when Harden was at the Nets, Durant didn't have to organize the offense, harden was responsible for combing the offense. However, after Harden also left, Durant's weakness was exposed. Irving won't organize, Durant won't handle the ball well after he's wrapped up, and it's normal for the Nets to be swept.
Alphabet brother got three doubles this time, is to give Durant a hard slap, this is the gap between top stars! Alphabet brother's offensive end is not playing well, the efficiency is not high, he really can't hit the outside shot, more to impact the basket to score. But Alphabet Brother is very well organized, and when he is caught in the bag, he can always find his teammates in time, like Portis and Holliday. You must know that this time the Bucks are still missing Middleton, if there is still Middleton, alphabet brother will play more easily. In addition to organizational ability, Alphabet Brother also did a good job on the defensive end. The Nets let Tatum burst out continuously, this time Tatum shot 6 of 18, scoring efficiency is very low, look at the performance of the alphabet brother, not only lamented that this is the performance of the first person in active duty. Durant is old after all, or he is really inferior to the alphabet brother in these two aspects. Judging from the performance of Brother Alphabet, he is indeed the first person in active service now, and the offensive and defensive ends are playing too well.
