Coach: Coaching the Grizzlies at the beginning, playing the bantam

On the sidelines, Bucks coach Budenholzer frowned.

He decided in his mind that if the Bucks still failed to attack in the next round, he would replace all the main players and declare surrender.

However, Antetokounmpo did not disappoint him again this time. George Hill dribbled the ball across half court, looking for opportunities with firm eyes. The Nets' defense was very tight, but Hill was undaunted and used his keen insight and superb ball-handling skills to move freely through the crowd.

Finally, he saw "Antetokounmpo" occupying a position in the middle, preparing to cooperate with the pick-and-roll. Hill accelerated towards "Antetokounmpo", and "Antetokounmpo" was also ready, using his solid body to block the defender.

At this moment, Hill changed direction, cleverly bypassed "Antetokounmpo" and accurately passed the ball to his hands. All this was done in a flash, and the Nets' defensive players didn't even have time to react.

After receiving the ball, "Antetokounmpo" rushed inside like a tank. He faced the defense of the Nets' interior defense general Clarkston and launched a challenge without hesitation.

Claxton has defended Antetokounmpo from too many baskets today, making the latter a little embarrassed, but "Antetokounmpo" did not flinch at all.

He dribbled the ball, adjusted his rhythm, and then took a step towards the basket. Claxton tried to use his body to block "Antetokounmpo"'s attack, but "Antetokounmpo" used his excellent physical fitness and skills to squeeze out a gap.

Two steps away from the basket, "Antetokounmpo" jumped up, faced Claxton's defense, and made a hard layup.

The basketball drew a wonderful arc in the air and then accurately fell into the basket.

"Shh-"

As the sound of the basketball passing through the net sounded, Antetokounmpo finally had a hard time facing Claxton!
On the Bucks bench, the teammates jumped up excitedly. They knew that this goal was not only for scoring, but also brought confidence and morale to the team.

During the return to defense, "Antetokounmpo" and George Hill high-fived in celebration. This attack to the basket barely stopped the Bucks from bleeding.

Unfortunately, before the Bucks players could be happy for too long, the Nets turned around and responded immediately.

At this moment, point guard Brunson took over the offensive banner and was ready to launch a new challenge to the Bucks' defense.

Brunson dribbled the ball across half court, his eyes calmly scanning the situation on the court. He observed that the Bucks' defense was very tight, especially against him, the point guard, who refused to give an inch.

However, Brunson remained calm and confident despite the pressure.

As Brunson dribbled the ball across half court, Bucks defender George Hill kept spewing trash at him, trying to disrupt his rhythm and mentality. Hill's words were harsh and provocative, but Brunson seemed not to hear him and was still focused on controlling the rhythm and direction of the ball.

Brunson suddenly accelerated and chose to break through at full speed from the left. He was so fast that he streaked across the field like a bolt of lightning. The Bucks' defensive players were shocked by his speed and stepped forward to double-team him.

However, Brunson did not panic. After attracting multiple defensive players, he cleverly passed the ball to a 45-degree angle on the weak side.

There, Ding Yanyuhang was ready to catch the ball. After receiving the pass from Brunson, he did not rush to shoot. Because he clearly knew that this was a tactical combination of scoring and playing, and he needed to wait for Brunson to run outside the three-point line again before he could pass the ball back again.

Brunson quickly ran out of the three-point line with the help of the screen, and Ding Yanyuhang also accurately passed the ball to his hands at this moment. Brunson adjusted his posture slightly after catching the ball, and then jumped up and shot decisively.

The basketball drew a wonderful arc in the air and accurately fell into the basket.

"Shh!"

Three-pointer hit!
Brunson hit again this time, and even got in Antetokounmpo's attack!
The audience was excited and cheered for Brunson's wonderful performance.

The Bucks players looked frustrated and were shocked by Brunson's calmness and strength.

George Hill also stopped talking trash, knowing that talking more in front of Brunson would be in vain.

The Bucks attacked, and George Hill controlled the ball through half the court, looking for opportunities with firm eyes. He saw "Antetokounmpo" stationed in the middle, ready to once again use their good pick-and-roll cooperation. The two exchanged a tacit look, and George Hill accelerated towards "Antetokounmpo".

At this moment, "Antetokounmpo" made a cut and was ready to catch the ball and attack the frame. Upon seeing this, George Hill immediately passed the ball accurately to his hands. After "Antetokounmpo" received the ball, he rushed toward the basket without hesitation.

This time, however, the challenges he faced were more severe. Nets center Claxton is already ready to defend. He stands under the basket like a towering mountain, blocking "Antetokounmpo"'s offensive route.

"Antetokounmpo" did not back down. He faced Claxton's defense and tried to force a layup. However, the moment he took off to shoot, Claxton suddenly jumped up, stretched out his huge palm, and slapped the basketball in "Antetokounmpo"'s hand hard.

"Bang -" there was a loud noise, and "Antetokounmpo" even dribbled the ball and was slapped to the ground cleanly by Claxton.

This block was like a heavy hammer, hitting the Bucks hard in the heart. There were oohs and aahs from the crowd as they cheered for Claxton's defense.

The basketball was slapped out by Claxton and fell into the hands of Bucks center Lopez. Lopez grabbed the basketball from under the basket and was about to score a second attack. However, he didn't expect Claxton to react so quickly.

At the moment Lopez took off to shoot, Claxton had already completed his second takeoff. He turned around and jumped, stretched out his huge palm again, and slapped the basketball in Lopez's hand hard.

"Whoosh..." The basketball was slapped out of the air by Claxton. This nail-board shot made the audience once again let out a sound of exclamation, cheering and applauding Claxton's defense.

The Bucks players looked a little shocked after their offense was disrupted in two consecutive rounds. They didn't expect that Clarkston's defense was so strong and he was able to send out two amazing blocks in a row. Da Luo and "Brother Antetokounmpo" looked at each other and saw the unwillingness and frustration in each other's eyes.

When Bucks head coach Budenholzer saw this scene, he shook his head and then waved his hand to ask the substitute players to take their positions on the technical table.

At this point, the Bucks completely raised the white flag and gave up, and the game entered garbage time.

The Bucks replaced all substitutes, and naturally so did the Nets.

Lu Yong sent out a lineup of Vincent, Dun Luo, Ding, Oubre, and Claxton.

This configuration also made Bucks coach Budenholzer smile secretly.

These five people come to the Bucks as the main rotation. As a result, the Nets turned out to be the third team, which was really infuriating! .

In the next game, the Nets steadily expanded their lead.

When the buzzer sounded at the end of the game, 131:102, the Nets defeated the Bucks by 29 points and won the first victory in the series.

The big score becomes 1:0!

The result of this game undoubtedly caused an uproar in the basketball world. Commentators Charles Barkley and Kenny Smith sat in the live broadcast room, faced the camera and began to summarize this eye-catching duel.

Charles Barkley spoke first, and the excitement on his face could not be concealed: "In this game, the Nets showed their unparalleled strength. Whether it is the smooth cooperation on the offensive end or the iron-blooded performance on the defensive end, everyone is amazed. 131 The high score is enough to show how terrifying their offensive power is, and more importantly, they limited the Bucks to 102 points, which is a very remarkable achievement in the playoffs.”

Kenny Smith took over and nodded in agreement: "Yes, Charles, the Nets' performance today is indeed eye-catching. Their team basketball is playing smoothly, and every player can stand up and score at critical moments." . The starting five led by Durant made it difficult for opponents to defend, and the role players also performed well. The Nets are really powerful."

Barkley smiled and continued: "Speaking of strength, we have to mention the Bucks. Before the game, Antetokounmpo made wild remarks and claimed to teach the Nets a lesson. But the result? They were severely beaten by the Nets. This is the cruelty of competitive sports. If you talk too much, you will be slapped in the face. "

Smith also laughed when he heard this: "Haha, it's true. Although Antetokounmpo also performed well in this game, it is obvious that his teammates failed to give him enough support. The Nets are all on the same team, everyone They can all play a role at critical moments. In this game, the Bucks obviously underestimated their opponent and failed to match the intensity and rhythm of the Nets.”

Barkley added: "Yes, the Bucks really need to sum up this game. They were originally a very capable team, but today they seemed a little powerless when facing the Nets. This may be because They relied too much on Antetokounmpo's personal abilities and ignored the integrity of the team. After all, basketball is a sport of five people. No matter how strong one person is, it is difficult to resist the power of a team."

Smith deeply agreed: "Yes, Charles. Moreover, I think this game may be a wake-up call for the Bucks. They need to re-examine their tactical system and player configuration, find out the problems and improve them. Only In this way, they can go further in the next game.”

Barkley nodded in agreement: "Kenny is right. For the Bucks, the loss in this game may be a good thing. It reminds the Bucks that in order to go further in the playoffs , It is not enough to rely on the performance of individual stars alone. They need to pay more attention to team cooperation and collaborative combat capabilities."

Smith continued: "Another thing worth mentioning is the Nets' coaching staff. They showed extremely high tactical literacy and adaptability during the game. Both the offensive tactical arrangements and the defensive strategic adjustments were very targeted. Sexy and effective.”

Barkley also agreed: "That's true! The Nets' coaching staff deserves a lot of credit! They can flexibly adjust tactics according to the situation on the field and allow the players to give full play to their own characteristics. This is really amazing!"

The two of them discussed every aspect of the game, from player performance to tactical arrangements to game results and so on. Their in-depth and comprehensive analysis gave the audience a deeper understanding and understanding of the game.

Finally, Barkley concluded: "In short, this game fully demonstrated the strength and teamwork spirit of the Nets, and the Bucks need to learn from this loss in order to achieve better results in future games. "

Smith also nodded in agreement: "Yes, this is the charm of competitive sports! Let us look forward to the exciting showdown between the two teams in the next game!"
