On May 10, Beijing time, the NBA playoffs continued, the Bucks lost to the Celtics 108-116, and the series was drawn 2-2! Alphabet brother bombed 34 points, 18 rebounds and 5 assists in this campaign, he was difficult to support alone, he was difficult to fight with two fists and four hands. Why? On the Green Army side, Tatum had 30 points, 13 rebounds and 5 assists, and Horford had 30 points, 8 rebounds and 3 assists, and the gap between the two starts was very large. To say that the most dragging legs, that is the Bucks' second giant Holliday, 5 of 22 in 40 minutes and 54 seconds, 6 of 3 minutes and 1 of 6 three!
Holliday had 16 points, seven rebounds and nine assists on 5-of-22 shooting, while he had a plus-minus of -23 on the field, a game-low statistic that meant Holliday lost 23 points on the game. Why does he make Brother Alphabet uncomfortable?
Looking at this game, The Alphabet Brother counterattacked many times and fell to the ground, and there were also scenes of entanglement with Smart on the floor, and in the absence of Middleton and Holliday's downturn, the Green Army's targeting was very obvious.
He was also named by the Green Army manager after the game: "We understand that Holliday has a lot of offensive tasks for the Bucks, so we keep looking for him when we attack, we don't want him to have a breathing space when defending. ”
Holliday today doesn't know what's wrong! The true shooting percentage since the end of the episode is 45.38%, which is the first-to-last of all players who have averaged at least 10 points per game.
So far in the playoffs, he's averaging 18.6 points, 5.8 rebounds, and 6.4 assists per game, but he's shooting just 37 percent from the field and as low as 32.1 percent from three-point range! Defensively he's still top-notch, but offensively he's really unsatisfactory.
In the summer of 2020, the Bucks and Holliday reached a four-year, $135 million extension, after all, he was the big contributor to the Bucks' 20-21 championship and the big core of the outside line. Holliday's annual salary this season is as high as $30 million, but his performance throughout the playoffs so far has actually been unsatisfactory.
Middleton was absent due to injury, which was a dollar solution, but the healthy Holliday did not play, in the words of the fans: "No you don't open the table!" ”
Previously, Holliday himself said: "Middleton is absent, and the last moment will depend on me and Giannis!" But when the alphabet brother was in desperate need of help in the fourth quarter of the game, Holliday had 1 point, 2 rebounds and 5 assists on 0-of-5 of 11 minutes, which was really unsatisfactory offensively, fans: "War criminal-level performance." "I also hope that Holliday can really stand up."
