Perhaps, before the start of the Eastern Conference semifinals between the Brooklyn Nets and the Milwaukee Bucks, not many media and fans would have imagined that the game would present such a clear one-sidedness.
Especially in the G2 game, facing the lack of Harden's Nets, the Bucks who played away from home were soon in a big position behind.
Durant became the focus of the game, his shots almost incomprehensible, and again and again he staged dry jump shots, and the ball hollowed into the net. In the end, Durant only played three games, 12-of-18, scored 32 points, and then clocked out of work.
It is worth noting that due to Tucker's two early fouls, the multiple rounds of this game, responsible for keeping an eye on Durant, are all alphabet brothers.
Only from this game, the alphabet brother's defense is really unsuccessful, Durant single-handedly picked the alphabet brother, whether it is a retreat step shot, or a breakthrough, scoring, it seems to be hand to hand.
After the Los Angeles Lakers' first-round exit, the Nets' performance became one of the focal points. Jay Williams, who was a 2002 chartist, has transformed himself into a commentator and regularly appears on TV shows like ESPN.
On the evening of June 8, Beijing time, Williams shared his interaction with Durant at a party a few years ago in a TV show.
Williams said that when he compared Durant to Alphabet Brother, Durant was enraged, and he stopped Williams from continuing, and Durant told him: "Listen, you don't compare me to Giannis again!" You should never do that! ”
Williams said he wanted to continue explaining, but Durant refused!
Williams' recollection has attracted widespread attention, especially in the context of the Nets' 2-0 lead over the Bucks and Durant's multiple single-handedness.
Durant has always responded positively to the voice on the Internet, without mercy. Durant was quick to say on his personal social media: "The whole thing is a lie( F-typed opening) and Jay Williams can never speak for me, never!" ”
Although many fans are very sympathetic to Jay Williams' career, his memories have been completely denied by Durant, which is still somewhat embarrassing.
Jay Williams was named to the All-America Team for two consecutive years in college, and in the 2002 Draft, Yao Ming was selected by the Houston Rockets with the first pick, and the Chicago Bulls held the second pick, and it was Jay Williams who was selected.
Unfortunately, in June 2003, Jay Williams lost control of his heavy motorcycle and crashed directly into a power pole on the side of the road, And Williams was thrown out, the ligament in his left knee was broken, and three nerves in his left leg were severely injured, and he was even in danger of amputation at one point.
Although Williams eventually recovered, his athleticism was much less than before, and his NBA career ended after only one season.
