Build a Dream Dynasty

The Nets attacked, Curry dribbled to the frontcourt and then gave it to Chasing Dream Green. Antetokounmpo kept the distance, Green still played according to tactics, and gave it to Curry who was running on cover.

This time Curry feinted and failed to change direction. Paul chased in place and formed a pincer attack with Snell. Curry passed the ball to Leonard, who went to the basket on the right, attracting Sanders to defend Right corner JR Smith

There was a mistake in this pass, JR did not get rid of the defense, Middleton went around and broke the basketball, jumped out of the bottom line because of inertia, turned around and passed the ball to Paul in bounds with one hand.

Paul received the basketball and immediately gave the ball to Antetokounmpo who was on a fast break.

The threat of Antetokounmpo in the fast break is amazing. Facing Dream Chaser Green who is back in place, he takes a step to the left within the three-point line and then pulls the ball. Green stood still but couldn't defend, watching the ball fall into the basket.

The Bucks' defense is very targeted. They have made a very restrictive deployment against Curry and Leonard, and they are very resolute in pushing and counterattacking quickly, which makes the Nets a little exhausted.

In a positional attack, Curry and Leonard played a pick-and-roll in the middle, and after Curry attracted the inside to switch defenses, he cut and received the ball.

The Bucks once again handed over the ball to Antetokounmpo in the positional battle. Today, Antetokounmpo, who played with confidence, went straight to the overlord and forced Green to complete a difficult throw. This shot has a lot of luck, but It is definitely very encouraging for the morale of the Bucks.

Stevens took the lead in requesting a timeout. This situation is relatively rare. The Bucks did a very good defense today, and a pair of long arms greatly restricted the Nets' offense. As the Nets, they also need to give some responses. Stevens made personnel adjustments. Joe Harris came off the bench and replaced Dreaming Green, which opened up the team's offensive space. At the same time, Curry dominated the ball on the offensive end, and Leonard The defensive end is responsible for taking care of Antetokounmpo.

Although Leonard is the strongest outside defender of the Nets, his height is only 201 centimeters, which is more than ten centimeters worse than Antetokounmpo. Besides, Antetokounmpo is also a spider-man type with long arms and legs. This adjustment is obviously a bit bold , After returning to the field, the guest commentators also felt a little puzzled when they saw this arrangement.

But Leonard quickly used his super individual defensive ability to make Antetokounmpo tragic. Although Antetokounmpo's physical fitness is abnormal, he is more of a dynamic talent. In the positional battle, facing Leonard who is much shorter than himself, Antetokounmpo can't get a good position, and he can't get a good position. Retreating to the waist to catch the ball, and holding Leonard head-on, Antetokounmpo also couldn't take advantage of it. In desperation, he opened the way with an elbow and was whistled for an offensive foul by the referee.

In the four full seasons of his career, Leonard and James fought three series in the playoffs. Leonard couldn't adapt to this kind of striker with lower body strength.

Looking back, Curry's clever breakthrough disrupted the Bucks' defense, and Harris hit a three-pointer to help the Nets approach the score.

Immediate results! That's the perfect word to describe Stevens' adjustment. For the Bucks, Kidd still had no way to deal with it, but Paul immediately changed the team's offensive tactics and assigned the ball to Middleton.

With height, confrontation, and shooting, Middleton's body in the third position does have some advantages in playing JR. His disadvantage is that he is not stable, and he switches back and forth between "that man" and "hot man" every day. His state today is just right on the balance point, neither good nor bad, but it is enough to make JR uncomfortable.

For the Nets, Curry took more shots, but the shooting percentage was mediocre. Fortunately, the Nets' defensive strength has improved and the point difference has not widened. The scores of the two teams rose alternately, and the game was very interesting.

In the first quarter of the game, 33 to 31, the Nets trailed by 2 points.

In the second quarter of the substitute contest, both sides unanimously increased the speed of offensive and defensive transitions. However, a fast pace does not mean high scoring. Whether it is the Nets or the Bucks, although they frequently attack the frame, their scoring efficiency is very low.

At the critical moment, it was Stevens who took the lead in making adjustments and took Curry on the field ahead of schedule. After Curry appeared on the court, he immediately activated the Nets' rotation. The Nets played a wave of 12:4 attacks in one and a half minutes, and overtook the score in one go.

Jeff Van Gundy commented: "The starting lineups of the two sides are strong, and the Bucks have done a good job in the contest on the bench. But the head coach's fighting style, Stevens proved why he is irreplaceable for the Nets. Neither Schneider nor Kidd can take his place."

The two sides switched to starting one after another, and the Nets had the upper hand in this quarter. The key to the Nets was that Curry made a wide shot, facing Paul and hit two three-pointers, attracting double-teams and assisting JR to make a three-pointer.

Fortunately, Paul scored five points in a row in the last minute, which prevented the Nets from entering the second half with a double-digit lead. Even so, the Nets led 65:58. Well, I saw the familiar numbers again.

In the third quarter, the desperate Bucks did not replace Paul and Antetokounmpo for the entire quarter. With Paul as the core of the organization, Antetokounmpo desperately ran on the defensive end, assisting in defense, supplemented by Middleton's outside line Twitch to compete with the Nets. But even so, in the face of today's very good Nets, the Bucks' tenacious resistance is still very difficult. Maybe the two sides have maintained a balance of power on the scene, but anyone with a discerning eye can see that the Bucks are using the main force. The physical fitness of the players is exchanged for a temporary balance in the score. After the three quarters, Antetokounmpo, who only rested for 4 minutes, was already panting heavily on the bench. It wasn't that he was physically weak, but that he was everywhere on the defensive end. The task was really too heavy.

The magician can defend from position one to position five, and Antetokounmpo defends from position one to position five at the same time. This kind of output on the defensive end is jaw-dropping. As an opponent, Stevens has more respect for Jiang Mingliang while being envious. In the past offseason, Antetokounmpo was Jiang Mingliang's second biggest goal after Durant, although he failed to get this potential stock in the end. But there is no doubt that this once confirmed Jiang Mingliang's vision.

93 to 87 entered the final quarter, but the veteran Butler suddenly began to show his strength. He singled out Harris and scored 4 points in a row. With a score of 5, it actually led the Bucks to overtake the score.

The appearance of this surprise soldier disrupted the deployment of the Nets, and even won a respite for the main players such as Antetokounmpo and Paul. In Stevens' mind, this is the most difficult game of the season so far.
