On May 10, Beijing time, the NBA playoffs continued in full swing. The Bucks, who are currently 2-1 in the second round of the series, are at home to take on the challenge of the Boston Celtics. As a team that aspires to defend the championship this season, the Bucks are still as strong as ever. Although the second-in-command Middleton was absent due to injury, the ability of alphabet brothers to storm the box has become stronger, and Grayson on the bench has also played the style of a playoff scoring wizard.
In contrast, the Greenshirts, who swept the Nets 4-0 in the first round, have deviated from the original track since entering the second round series. The strategy of multi-person assisting the alphabet brother is very effective for Durant, but it does not play a great role in constantly attacking the inside of the alphabet brother, but it is once self-defeating, disrupting the team's overall defensive strategy. And this time continue to be at the home of the Bucks, ushering in the key G4 battle, can the Green Shirts win back a city? Let's wait and see.
Tatum was not in good shape in the first quarter, receiving 2 fouls while delivering 4 points and 3 rebounds. At the same time, Brown also contributed only 5 points, 1 rebound and 1 assist, allowing the Bucks to play a 25-18 score. However, after entering the second quarter of the showdown, as the Bucks' efficiency on the scoring end was significantly reduced, the Green shirts, who seized the opportunity, counterattacked in time, sending a 29-23 score, narrowing the point difference between the two sides to 1 point. I have to admit that the difference between the two sides is not very large, and either side has the opportunity to win the game.
And Yi Bian fought again, Tatum, who only sent 9 points in the first half, picked up, played 12 minutes of game time in the third quarter, and sent 9 points, 4 rebounds and 3 assists, but failed to help the team continue to chase points. Alphabet Brother showed his might in the third quarter, sending 13 points and 6 rebounds, leading the team to play a 32-26 score, extending the point difference between the two sides to 7 points. However, in the final quarter of the showdown into the decisive victory, the old detective flower Horford on the green shirt side stood up and sent 16 points, 2 rebounds and 1 assist with a single quarter shooting rate of 100%, and Tatum was not willing to show weakness, sending 12 points, 2 rebounds and 2 assists, leading the team to play a 43-28 score in one fell swoop.
At the end of the regular quarter, the Greenshirts showed their unparalleled resilience, completing a comeback in the final quarter with a score of 116-108. After winning the game, the two sides will return to their home stadium in Boston for the G5 battle, and the Greenshirts will have home advantage. Looking back on the game, Tatum did not disappoint in this game, shooting 3 of 8 in the first half, giving 9 points, while in the second half he completed self-redemption, shooting 8 of 17, sending a key 21 points, and with a comprehensive statistic of 30 points, 13 rebounds and 5 assists, he once again played the technical level that the team leader should have.
Brown only got 11 shots in a single game because of the foul crisis in this game, but still had 18 points to contribute, which alleviated the overall scoring pressure of the team to a certain extent. At the same time, the 35-year-old starting center Horford, who is also old and strong in this game, once again played the value of his tandem show, delivering a key 30 points, 8 rebounds and 3 assists, and making an indelible contribution in the process of helping the team achieve a 15-point reversal in the final quarter. We all know that the Green Shirts sit on the combination of Tatum and Brown, but who would have thought that the 2007 Flower Discovery Show could return to the top and let the Green Army Explore The Trio be unlocked.
