The Godfather of Basketball

Seeing that the offense could not be opened, Prati called Brogdon up and asked him to replace Snell.

The Bucks sent a sideline ball, Antetokounmpo received the ball and attacked again, and distributed Rogdon after double-teaming.

Brogdon received the ball and saw Butler return to defense, he didn't stop the ball and waved his hands to Antetokounmpo, Antetokounmpo turned around and made a layup and finally scored.

After Antetokounmpo scored, he turned his head and high-fived Brogdon.

Brogdon was able to squeeze Mitchell into the rotation in the early days of the Nets, and his strength is not bad. If it weren't for Mitchell and the Nuggets' lottery pick, he would not have traded Brogdon to leave the team of.

Brogdon's playing has made the Bucks' offense significantly smoother, but the quality of the defensive end has also declined a lot.

Butler threw off Brogdon's air cut, received a pass from Jokic for a layup and caused Henson's thugs.

With this lineup of the Nets, there are too many scoring points on the court.

And the most important thing is Butler and George, the two forward swingmen, both offensive and defensive, elusive.

Middleton made a three-pointer from the outside to share the pressure with Antetokounmpo, but looking back, Butler and Jokic each returned a three-pointer from the outside.

Antetokounmpo finally broke through the middle and scored a strong score. Jokic quickly scored 2+1 on Henson when he turned around.

The Nets' three-pointers and shooting percentage this season are second only to the Rockets in the league. Coupled with Jokic's strength, the team has sufficient firepower inside and outside.

The Bucks tried their best, but they were not as good as the Nets in terms of strength on paper or performance on the court.

In the end, Tang Tian basically didn't get up much, and sat leisurely off the court for the whole game. The Nets still defeated the Bucks 114-93 at home and won the first victory of the series.

George scored a team-high 26 points, plus 7 rebounds and 4 assists, Butler and Jokic each scored 20 points, and Mitchell scored the most 19 points and 3 assists off the bench.

The Nets played relatively easily.

For the Bucks, Antetokounmpo scored 36 points, 13 rebounds and 6 assists. His performance is quite eye-catching. With the strength visible to the naked eye and the talent that has not yet reached its peak, there is reason to believe that he will grow into a top five superstar in the league in the future .

Middleton had 22 points and Brogdon had 16 points and 3 assists. These two outside firepower points have shared a lot of pressure for Antetokounmpo, but other than that, no one has scored in double figures. The gap in overall strength is quite obvious.

At the press conference after the game, Tang Tian also praised Antetokounmpo: "He has only played in the league for 5 years, but he is improving every year. You can't see where his ceiling is. If one day he I wouldn't be surprised at all to become a top five or even a top three superstar in the league."

Tang Tian's evaluation of Antetokounmpo is very good, but how good his evaluation is, it represents how much the Nets value Antetokounmpo.

In the second game of the series, the Nets obviously played more targeted. George reduced his offensive shots and devoted most of his energy to marking Antetokounmpo. Too many opportunities to make calls.

In the end, Antetokounmpo took 17 shots, only hit 6 goals, and scored only 18 points.

After Antetokounmpo was choked to death, the Bucks' offense became more constipated. They only scored 87 points in the game.

And the Nets adjusted not only the defense, but also the offensive end to hit the basket more.

The final score of the two sides was fixed at 87 to 104.

The 17-point difference looks much better than the first game, but that was based on the fact that the two sides played a quarter of garbage time.

Jokic scored a game-high 31 points and 13 rebounds, basically blowing up the Bucks' paper-like interior.

2 to 0, almost as expected, the Bucks are fully prepared, but the threat to the Nets is limited.

New York fans can't wait, and have begun to dislike the anxiety of the 76ers and Raptors next door.

The 76ers are rookies in the playoffs, but they did not lose in their match against the Raptors.

Simmons showed a maturity that is not a rookie. He scored 17 points, 9 rebounds and 13 assists in his first show, helping the 76ers win an away game.

In addition to Simmons, Embiid's dominance on the inside and Redick's accurate three-pointer on the outside give fans reason to believe that the young 76ers will overturn the Raptors and get close to the second round.

But the Raptors used their experience to pull back a victory in the second game. Lowry and DeRozan scored 60 points together. This performance also made many fans believe that the king of the North will be the ultimate winner.

This is where the New York fans complained. The Nets and Bucks here seem to be almost done, and the other side seems to be going to the rhythm of the tiebreaker.

This is delaying the progress of the game!

The outside world has always been optimistic about the Nets sweeping the Bucks, but Tang Tian knows that a defensive team like the Bucks will be much stronger when they return to the home court, so he reminded the players more than once to stay focused.

Game 3 of the series was played at the Bradley Center in Milwaukee.

For Yi Jianlian, this game is a bit special. This is where his career began.

In fact, there were several fans wearing Yi Jianlian's No. 9 Bucks jersey on the sidelines.

Unlike his previous life, Yi Jianlian was an All-Star, won three championships, and is now starting for the Nets. If he is more successful, he will naturally have more fans, even if he is playing in the playoffs.

Two consecutive losses allowed Protee to make substitution adjustments. Jabari Parker replaced Snell as the team's starting power forward.

After playing two small lineups, he realized that he couldn't compete with the Nets.

The fans cheered loudly, and the referee's penalty scale was relatively relaxed. Coupled with some home whistles, the Bucks played in an extraordinary state, leading the Nets by 5 points at the end of the first quarter.

Home and away are different teams.

At the critical moment, Mitchell became a surprise player. After he came up in the second quarter, he hit the basket continuously and scored difficult goals, helping the team tie and overtake the score. Mitchell's performance also inspired the starters. In the second half of the quarter and the beginning of the third quarter, the starters have to play well.

In the end, despite the Bucks' best efforts, the Nets won the game 103-95.

This game was like a breath, and the Bucks still couldn't hold it to the end.

Antetokounmpo scored 32 points, 8 rebounds and 8 assists again.

After losing the third game, the Bucks' tone also plummeted, and they surrendered after three quarters in the fourth game.

Although there were some twists and turns, in the end the Nets eliminated their opponents 4-0 without bloodshed, and they were very close to the second round.

At the end of the fourth game, the two teams had a final handshake.

Brother Antetokounmpo was a little agitated, his eye circles were reddish, and he seemed very unwilling.

In these four games, he averaged 28.6 points, 8.5 rebounds and 6.7 assists per game, and his shooting percentage was 50%.

When Tang Tian stretched out his hand to hug him, it was like hugging James just now.

"You've done a good enough job, the future is yours."

He spoke unconsciously.
