The Green Army equalised away, Horford's brilliant performance was praised, and the Green Army's double probe singles tactic was limited, but don't forget, Horford is the probe after Auden and Durant! Al Horford is a gradually forgotten star, in the Green Army's system, he made a great sacrifice, if the double probe flower is a flower, then he is definitely the green leaf that sacrifices the most. In the third quarter of the game, Brown was carrying five fouls on his back, and the situation had begun to tilt towards the Bucks, but Horford stepped up in time to help the team stop the bleeding, scoring 16 points on all 6 shots in the final quarter, perfectly filling the offensive firepower when Brown was not on the court.
After the game, Horford's performance quickly made it to the top of the national search, and fans praised his performance on both ends of the offensive and defensive ends. Some netizens lamented that Giannis was actually limited by a middle-aged man, he is no longer the "GOAT" in my heart; and green army fans believe that Horford's performance today is very critical, he is the most stable player of the green army in this series, if the green army finally wins the championship, the green army should consider retiring his jersey; of course, some people think that Horford's state is hot for a while: he will not play like before!
Horford has played diligently in this series, scoring two double-doubles in the first three games, and it's tough to average a dozen rebounds in Milwaukee's tall striker group. The Green Army's current system mainly revolves around double probing flowers, and veterans like Horford generally can only do some dirty work, and the ball is rarely handed over to him. Horford's 30 points today was a "surprise", if the game went normally, Brown did not make 5 fouls in the third quarter, and by the fourth quarter the team could not have given Horford so many shots. Fortunately, Horford grasped it, shooting 11 of 14 from the field and scoring 30 points on 5-of-7 three-pointers, 10 fewer shots than Tatum, who also had 30 points.
In fact, from this game, we can see Horford's tactical position in the Green Army, in the case of 3 shots in the first quarter, only 2 shots in the second quarter. As the saying goes, it is gold that shines everywhere, even if it is dirty work, Horford is also very good. According to statistics, in the 4 games so far in the series, when the alphabet brother faced Horford's defense, his 49 shots only hit 15 hits, shooting only 30.6%; when he faced other defenders, the shooting rate was as high as 53.8%. Horford's restriction on The Alphabet Brother is the main reason why the Green Army can fight the Bucks to a 2:2 draw, and the fate of the Green Army in this series may not really be in the hands of a veteran. Horford created a huge offensive threat to the Bucks today, and in the next game, it is bound to focus on Horford, and the Green Army can use Horford as a point to open up space and create scoring opportunities within the three-point line for the rest of the players.
