The Strongest Bishop in the NBA

Chapter 395 Big Score 31

In the subsequent free throws, Antetokounmpo made steady free throws without any suspense. The score of the two sides changed from one point behind the Bucks to two points ahead.

The remaining game time is only enough for two rounds of offense.

Budenholzer immediately called a timeout. If the next round of offense fails to equalize or overtake the score, the Eagles must use foul tactics.

What's more deadly is that even if the score is successful, the remaining time is enough for the Bucks to plan a lore tactic.

All in all, the situation is extremely unfavorable for the Eagles.

...

"Good job, next we only need to defend the opponent's goal, and we can go to the opponent's home court with a score of 2:0!"

Wang Xiao said with a smile, and patted Brother Antetokounmpo on the shoulder at the same time.

"Good job."

"Hey." Antetokounmpo was still a little excited at this time. After all, this was the first time in his life that he scored a key goal at such a critical moment in the NBA playoffs. He felt that he could even remember this moment for a lifetime.

"Everyone, remember not to relax. The Eagles will definitely try their best to score the next goal. You must do your defensive work well. If you encounter the opposite pick-and-roll..."

For a team like the Eagles without a core scoring point, any position could become an attacker. What Wang Xiao can do is to try his best to make his players do every detail well.

The timeout ends and players from both teams reappear.

Millsap bounds the ball to point guard Jeff Teague, who dribbles the ball slowly on the outside, and then Horford on the inside pulls out for Teague's pick-and-roll.

Teague's breakthrough speed is extremely fast, and in the little gap time when changing defenses during the pick-and-roll screen, he rushed into the inside like a wild horse, and then made an extremely fast throw.

However, just after the basketball was shot, a pair of big hands that covered the sky and the sun had already burst out, and directly slapped the basketball out with a volleyball smash-like block!

"Giannis! Nice big hat!"

The basketball was slapped directly on the backboard and then bounced back, and Antetokounmpo directly put it in his arms. Then he moved his long legs and ran towards the frontcourt.

"Stop him! Foul!"

Budenholzer yelled from the sidelines, and the closest to Antetokounmpo was Horford who had just helped Teague pick and roll. He subconsciously wanted to hold Antetokounmpo, but he only had time to grab Antetokounmpo's jersey. Then he was pulled by a huge force, and the jersey in his hand came out.

Antetokounmpo, who broke through Horford's defense line, was already in front of him, which also maximized his advantage of height and leg length. No matter how hard the Eagles players tried their best to catch up with him, they couldn't catch up with him.

In just the blink of an eye, he had rushed beyond the Hawks' three-point line.

Without the slightest hesitation, Brother Antetokounmpo joined the ball with both hands, stepped directly outside the three-point line with a big step, stepped on the free throw line with two steps, and jumped directly to dunk the basketball into the basket with both hands!

"Giannis - Antetokounmpo!"

The home court of the Bucks was in a state of ebullition, and all the Bucks fans were cheering loudly.

At the critical moment, Antetokounmpo attacked and defended, and directly established the victory of this game with his own strength!

On the sidelines, Budenholzer looked a little ugly. He looked at Wang Xiao who was calm on the other side, feeling extremely unwilling.

If it is said that in the last game, Wang Xiao defeated him tactically, then in this game, it is obvious that his tactical arrangement is more targeted.

But in this case, the Eagles still lost to the Bucks, or to the Bucks player Antetokounmpo.

This kind of thing is beyond the control and control of the head coach. Even the best coach can't directly improve the ability and level of a player...

wrong!

Taking a deep look at Wang Xiao, that guy seems to have such an incredible magical power, basically all the players who play under him can do the same.

Jeremy Lin, Curry, Harden, George, Leonard... and now Antetokounmpo.

There are still more than 20 seconds left in the game, but the Hawks, who are 4 points behind, basically have no hope of a comeback, especially after the team's most accurate three-point shooter has been traded to the opposing team.

As Horford used his height advantage from the outside to miss a three-pointer, the Eagles gave up on foul tactics and waited for the end of the game.

"Squeak——!"

The whistle sounded at the end of the game, and the entire Bucks cheered thunderously at home.

103:99, the Bucks beat the Eagles by 4 points at home.

In this game, Oladipo scored the highest score with 28 points, but anyone who has watched the game knows that it is Giannis with 21 points, 11 rebounds and 4 assists that really determines the victory of the game. Antetokounmpo, especially at the end of the game, completely crushed the Eagles' hopes of victory.

After winning this game, the Bucks won the first two home games in the series and will go to Atlanta, the Hawks' home court with a score of 2:0. At the Eagles' home court, the game is obviously much more difficult.

After the game, Eagles head coach Budenholzer also said that the Eagles had a chance to win this game, but the team's players made some mistakes at critical moments, while the Bucks' players showed better.

"2:0 is not the end of the world. The playoffs have just begun. After returning to the home court, I have the confidence to make the team better. The score of 2:0 will soon become 2:2, and then It becomes 2:3, 2:4, and we will win the final victory."

Budenholzer was so confident that he had no choice.

The Eagles have fallen behind 0:2. If even his head coach shows pessimism, it is likely to affect the team's subsequent performance.

As an experienced coach who has followed Popovich for many years, Budenholzer knows exactly when he should do what.

His self-confidence undoubtedly gave the Eagles players who were frustrated after the loss a shot in the arm.

On April 24, at the home of the Eagles, the Philips Arena, the Eagles finally won a series and pulled back a point, making the score 2:1.

In this game, the Hawks players felt hot, while the Bucks felt inaccurate, especially on the outside. Korver made 1 of 7 three-pointers and Middleton made 0 of 5 shots.

Lacking stable outside firepower support, the Bucks' offense was deadlocked and fell behind by more than 20 points at halftime. In the end, the score between the two teams was 112:96, and the Bucks lost 16 points away.

Faced with such a situation, Wang Xiao is also very helpless. Players are not machines, and there are always good and bad touches.

After an easy win at home, the morale of the Hawks team was greatly boosted, and the fans of the team were also excited. After all, judging from this easy victory, the team is really likely to equalize the big score, and then achieve Overtake.

But they were not happy for long.

On April 26, in the fourth game of the series between the two sides, at the home court of the Eagles, the Bucks won the final victory, turning the big score into 3:1.
