Today's championship Bucks lost to the Heat by 42 points, on the one hand, the Bucks' Lopez and Holliday did not play, resulting in the Bucks attacking and defending at both ends of the stretch, the inside line less Big Luo sitting, the guard line less Holliday this defensive toughster. At this time, The Alphabet Brother will definitely look at the Heat's No. 17 player and think it would be nice to have you there.
Tucker was one of the bucks who won the championship last season, and Tucker has always been a player who is known for his defense. Tucker averaged 26.1 minutes per game in the regular season last season to get 3.7 points, 3.9 rebounds, 1.2 assists and 0.8 steals, from the data alone, Tucker is indeed very average, but his role in the defensive end is different, otherwise he would not have risen to 29.6 minutes in the playoffs, he is very good at using his body contact to give the ball carrier a lot of interference, he often has to defend the opponent's most powerful players, such as last year's playoffs, the Bucks sent him to defend Durant.
Perhaps in the playoffs Tucker averaged only 4.3 points, 4.8 rebounds, 1.1 assists and 1 steal per game, the Bucks management did not renew Tucker's contract in time after winning the championship, but they ignored that they were a defensive team, tucker's value is not only reflected in the data. At the same time, they really did not have extra salary space to renew Tucker,Tucker himself said that he did not expect the Bucks to be unwilling to renew his contract, and finally Tucker joined the Heat for $15 million in two years.
Today Tucker got 8 points, 6 rebounds and 2 assists, three-pointers 3 shots 2 of 2, but the plus-minus value of 31 is the highest in the game, which also proves his role on the court, and the Heat has always been a team known for defense, tucker joined after the Heat's defensive ability rose another gear, today's first quarter to defend the Bucks only scored 17 points. And the Bucks who lack tucker in Holliday's absence, no one can limit the Heat's backcourt, so that Butler scored 21 points, Hiro even scored 27 points in 24 minutes, Alphabet Brother can not chase the Heat alone to run the whole team, presumably he also misses the days when the "Shoe King" was there!
