Didn't many fans think the Celtics were not good after the G1 Celtics were easily taken away by the Bucks?
Fat Ding has always believed that the series between the Bucks and Celtics will not be so simple, and it will take at least 6 games to divide the winners and losers. The G1 Celtics were easily taken away for two main reasons.
The first is that Brown is still in Ramadan, and the competitive state is seriously affected. Especially when facing the Bucks toughly, it will definitely suffer a lot. Brown can't play, and Tatum does not echo, Tatum's defensive pressure will increase greatly, and performance will also be affected. The second was that they were too easy in the first round and swept the Nets. This allows them to rest for too long, and it is difficult for the G1 to find the state when it comes up.
G2 Although the Celtics officially announced the best defensive player Smart was out of the game due to injury, the Celtics played a great overall basketball. On the offensive end, Brown and Tatum were hot and very eye-catching. Brown played 19 minutes and 46 seconds in the half, shooting 9-of-10 from 5-of-5 from three-point range, and had 25 points, 2 rebounds and 2 assists. Because of Brown's excellent performance, Tatum was more likely to concede shooting opportunities, but also easily scored 10 points, 2 rebounds and 3 assists. Brown and Tatum scored 35 points in the half to lead the Celtics 25-pointer 65-40 at halftime!
Alphabet Brother was quite stretched throughout the first half. Throughout the first half, the Celtics mainly used single defense to limit the alphabet brother. Under Lowe's defense, Alphabet Brother did not show the dominance of two MVPs. Alphabet played 18 minutes in the first half, scoring just 5 points, 2 rebounds and 4 assists on 2-of-11 shooting. The Bucks were hit at halftime, trailing by 25 points!
Do you think the Bucks still have a chance to complete a big comeback in this game?
