I’m Really Playing Basketball

The G5 between the Bobcats and the Bucks really made Chen Xiao and Jordan happy, and it also made their apprentice Adu, who was trained by them, injured.

Historically, before the end of the fifth game of the 2017 Finals, when Xiao Du knew that he was going to win his first career championship, he couldn't help crying before the game was over. After the game, he even hugged Lao Zhan cried bitterly.

Many times, people's emotions are really uncontrollable.

And this game was definitely a game that made Xiao Du unable to help himself. He really gave everything he could.

Facing one of the people he respected the most, he had been fighting with him 50-50 for forty-eight minutes, but in the end, he still fell in front of him.

If this is because his strength is not enough, he can continue to hone his strength. He is a very hard-working and basketball-focused person. However, it is obvious that this is not because of strength, and he is far from what Chen Xiao lacks. It's not that he can do it with hard work.

His physical strength is already very good, stronger than 99% of the players in the league, but compared to beast-level physical monsters like Chen Xiao and others, he is still not up to par.

And this is what makes Xiao Du despair. He is not afraid of being inferior to others. In the first eighteen years of his career, he was inferior to Beasley and Oden, but now, they can no longer see his taillights.

He could work hard, but this time, facing Chen Xiao, he felt for the first time that he had lost the direction of his efforts, the despair that no matter how hard he tried, he couldn't reach it.

Compared with Chen Xiao, he has his advantages. As an offensive player with a similar style, he has a better height and wingspan than Chen Xiao, which means that he has a stronger ability to ignore defense and resist interference when shooting than Chen Xiao.

But similarly, it is precisely because of this height advantage that his physical fitness is also at a disadvantage. In the NBA, or in other words, during strenuous exercise, taller players consume more energy. This has never happened. Theorem of change.

Therefore, Xiao Du, who has been in the NBA for five years since he entered the NBA in 2007, let people see him cry for the first time.

Many fans used to say that the head player of the Bucks was a calm and scary player who almost never broke down emotionally on the court.

But now, they saw it.

Really just not yet sad.

However, the emotional outburst happened at that moment. Soon, with the comfort of Chen Xiao and Qiaodan, Xiao Du returned to normal.

Moreover, although Xiao Du did lose to Chen Xiao in this game, he also received the highest praise from Jordan, the old master.

"Kevin, you are less than 24 years old now, but your strength has reached the same level as mine. You still have enough time to get closer to Chen, enough time!"

For his favorite second disciple, Boss Qiao is really happy. This game is definitely the most exciting match for Boss Qiao.

The team won a super critical victory.

And his apprentice has grown to this extent under his eyes.

If it weren't for the Bucks pulling their hips collectively in this game, he might not really know that his apprentice has already made a fortune to such an extent.

Jordan said that Xiao Du's strength is now comparable to his. This is definitely the highest praise for NBA players.

Especially Chen Xiao, who was standing next to him, nodded in agreement.

I can't disagree with this, because Xiao Du is indeed an S-level player now.

From college to now, six years later, with the careful polishing of him and Jordan and Xiaodu's own efforts, he is now indeed on the same ladder as Jordan, Wade, James, Kobe, and of course Chen Xiao superior.

Of course, the same ladder also has differences due to different players' styles and specific abilities.

Chen Xiao is definitely the strongest in this echelon, and at the same time, Xiao Du is definitely not the weakest in this echelon, even...

It can be seen from what Jordan just said that Jordan feels that the current Xiao Du is already better than him. Of course, this may also be the encouragement and humility of Boss Qiao, but it can be said that the current Xiao Du really makes Chen Xiao and Jordan feel very good. .

The work of art they created together reached a height they had expected when they were about to part ways.

It's like a gift from God.

After the G5 battle between the Bobcats and the Bucks, the Bobcats won the crucial battle of Tianwangshan. For the Bobcats, having won the championship point of the Eastern Conference, they definitely did not want the game to be dragged into a grab. Seven.

Therefore, in the G6 game on June 3rd, Chen Xiao took the lead and showed a strong aggressiveness from the very beginning.

In the first quarter of G6, Chen Xiao shot 12 times in a single quarter, 8 of 12, and scored 22 points in a single quarter.

Chen Xiao's head start in this wave really confuses the Bucks.

Even if the Bucks are a very cohesive team, losing a game like G5 will still make their emotions somewhat uncomfortable.

So in the first quarter, let the away game Bobcats play a score of 40 to 24.

To be honest, the Bobcats scored 40 points in a single quarter. This was obviously a big problem with the defense. At the same time, with 24 points in a single quarter, the Bucks also played a bit mediocre offensively. This is indeed the case. In the last game Xiao Du, who had played such a game, hit 1 of 6 in the first quarter. The touch of the team's number one star will indeed make it difficult for the Bucks.

It can only be said that although Chen Xiao and Xiao Du are both stable 50-50 players, if they have to compete, Chen Xiao is more stable because Chen Xiao can play different positions and has more methods. Du Although Lant has many methods, they are still lacking compared to Chen Xiao.

However, Bucks head coach Terry Porter is not worried about Du, because in his impression, Du has never had an important game in recent years where his hips have been stretched.

1-for-6 in the first quarter, maybe 5-for-6 in the second quarter, 1-for-10 in the first half, maybe 9-for-10 in the second half.

How strong Xiao Du is now, how accurate Xiao Du is likely to be in the following games.

This is the confidence that Du has built for Terry Porter with an unknown number of forced 50-50 games over the years.

So, don't look at the Bucks losing 16 points as soon as the first quarter of this game came up, but Terry Porter didn't feel panicked.

Because it was Xiao Du who was strong in the first quarter, and Xiao Ku, who is very important for the team's rhythm, is really not strong at all and is in very good condition.

And what makes Terry Porter even more delighted is that in the second quarter rotation of this game, with Ray Allen's 4-for-5 and 10-point performance in five minutes, the Bucks scored a victory in the second quarter. Won 6 points 30 to 24.

After halftime, the Bucks trailed by 10 points 54 to 64 at home.

When Chen Xiao and the Bobcats played so fiercely from the beginning, they were only 10 points behind. To be honest, Terry Porter felt that the Bucks had a chance, and there were many opportunities!

Sure enough, in the second half, the Bucks opened up. It should be said that in the third quarter, the Bucks' three collapses happened again.

In the last Game 5, he only scored 11 points in Charlotte. Ku, who couldn’t stretch his hips, hit 5 of 6 three-pointers in the third quarter, scoring 15 points in a single quarter, while Rea, who has always been in good shape, Lun made 3 of 4 three-pointers in a single quarter, and scored 10 points again in a single quarter.

In one game, Ray Allen and Curry combined for 8 of 10 three-pointers. This familiar taste once again made the other Bobcats players speechless and powerless.

Similarly, in this quarter, Xiao Du's 50% magical skills also began to show off. He was 3 of 11 in the first half, and he was 5 of 6 in the third quarter, 1 of 2 three-pointers, and 2 of 2 free throws. , also scored 13 points.

In the third quarter, just these three scored 38 points in a single quarter!

That terrifying attack power really made Bobcats players tremble with fear.

In the first quarter, they scored 40 points in a single quarter, which was already very fierce, and in the first quarter, the Bucks even scored 46 points in a single quarter!

After the third quarter, the 10-point gap between the Bobcats and the Bucks became a 10-point lead for the Bucks.

Because in the third quarter, under the strong impact of the Bucks and Curry's rhythm, the Bobcats scored 26 points in a single quarter.

After three quarters, the score of the two teams is already 100 to 90.

During this game, the audience in front of the TV was shocked. The Bucks fans at the scene and Jordan off the court were so shocked that they didn't know what to say.

Because Jordan really didn't know what to say.

Logically speaking, the Bucks scored 46 points in a single quarter. You want to criticize the defense?

However, you really can't criticize them. It's not Rose, Jimmy Butler and Roy. Barnes doesn't work hard.

Rose knocked Curry's defense upside down many times, but Curry was able to hit those incredible long three-pointers in the third quarter.

When Barnes and Butler defended Durant, they almost poked Durant's nose twice, but he was able to make the shot.

In the third quarter, the scores scored by these two people were simply not something that the defense could solve.

Let's put it this way, if Chen Xiao hadn't made 6 of 10 in a single quarter and scored 16 points, the Bobcats would have collapsed in the third quarter.

In the face of the Bucks' offensive frenzy led by Curry and Durant, the mentality of other Bobcat players is indeed affected.

When you focus your defense on Curry and Durant, there are Ray Allen, Marion, Iguodala, Braxon, Nene, Ariza, Belinelli, Diener, etc. wait……

Therefore, as long as Curry drives the Bucks, it will basically be a wave...

In this game, Curry was indeed very accurate. In the fourth quarter, this kid made 3 of 3 three-pointers...

Rose is still defensive to the extreme, but he can hit.

So in the end, Ross looked at his hands suspiciously, wondering if the hands he had tonight were made of paper.

In the end, the Bobcats, who originally wanted to end the game in G6, lost to the Bucks 119 to 131 in the away game.

This game is still a game of more than 10 points. The Bobcats and Bucks series still continues the situation where either you defeat me or I defeat you.

At the same time, in this game, Bucks point guard Curry once again scored 40+, 16 of 28 in a single game, 9 of 14 three-pointers, 0 of 0 free throws, and scored 41 points in the game.

41 points in the playoffs without free throws, this is the first time in NBA history.

And this is why Rose looked at his hands and doubted his life after the game.

How many times has he knocked Curry back and forth this game? The referee just didn't call him a foul, as if he really didn't push Curry. Curry's fall was all a flop, there was no cylinder, and he pushed the air.

But Rose knew that he was not pushing the air. He felt Curry's weight. Since Curry is not air, are his hands the air?

In short, in this game, Rose was a little suspicious of Curry's life.

I have to say that the matchup between Rose and Curry in this series is indeed very interesting.

After 6 games, Curry won 3 times, while Rose won 2 times. The two pulled once at the same time, which is considered a tie. Of course, Curry pulled harder, and the Bucks lost. , even if Ross wins.

So in the first six games, the two were tied 3-3, and what's interesting is that the average points of the two were similar.

Therefore, Curry, who was locked up almost to death by Rose last season, can actually get on with Rose this season, and even judging from the scene, his advantage is even greater.

That is, this stability...

Ku's performance at home and away from home in this series left Bucks fans not knowing whether to cry or laugh.

Of course, he must have laughed a lot. After all, you have to eat one bite at a time. This season Curry has allowed them to see his growth, instability, and ghosts every game. It is better than the ghosts every game he faced with Rose last season. Bar?

In addition, Ray Allen of the Bucks also made 7 three-pointers in this game and scored 29 points.

And Xiao Du scored 33 points on 11 of 22, 3 of 11 in the first half, but finally became 11 of 22. He is as famous as Chen Xiao, Mr. 50-50, and his reputation is well-deserved.

In this game, Chen Xiao scored 21 of 42, 7 of 14 three-pointers, and 9 of 9 free throws. He scored 58 points, 15 rebounds and 9 assists.

It can be seen from Chen Xiao's data in this game that Chen Xiao really wants to win and his offense is really strong. Chen Xiao's touch in this game is indeed good, but in the Bucks' three-point frenzy and offense, Under the frenzy, Chen Ling's god-level performance was still not enough, and he still couldn't stand it.

In addition, Rose made 8 of 18 in this game and scored 19 points, while Roy scored 20 points on 7 of 12. Curry, who came on the bench, made 4 of 6 and 4 three-pointers in this game. 3, scored 11 points.

Facing the Bucks' five minors, the Bobcats also played the five minors in the first six games, which basically eliminated their excellent inside depth. This is why the Bobcats' home games are completely different from their away games.

Because in the away game against the Bucks, Curry, Ray Allen and the others were so accurate that the Bobcats didn't dare to use traditional inside players.

Therefore, even with the rotation of the lineup in this game, the Bobcats can't beat the Bucks.

Because of the depth of the five-small lineup, the Bucks are indeed stronger. Not only do they have five starters, Ray Allen, Curry, Durant, Iguodala, and Braxon, but they also have Diener and Berry on the bench. Nellie, Marion, Ariza, and Nene are the same powerful five.

This is why everyone said that the Bucks can maintain five hours for 48 minutes, and they are five hours with the same intensity.

But bobcats…

The Bobcats' starting lineup can line up Chen Xiao, David West, Barnes, Jimmy Butler, and Rose, which can withstand the Bucks' top five.

But when it comes to the rotation, although there are five small players, Curry Jr., Stephen Curry, Roy, DeRozan, Kemba Walker, Tobias Harris, and Isiah Thomas Jr.

This is seven years old.

However, these seven people, three rookies, and the remaining four do not have a true five-year inside line. They have huge defensive problems. As long as the rhythm is broken and the shooting rate is unstable, they will be suppressed.

This is why Curry can always break the Bobcats' rhythm at the Bucks' home court.

The Bobcats' rhythm first began to break down from the rotation.

Likewise, this is why the home and away games between the Bobcats and Bucks are so different.

Back at the home court of the Bobcats, Curry is not that deep, and the Bucks are not that deep. The Bobcats can use their inside advantage. Even if it only takes ten minutes, they can get through the most difficult stage of the Bobcats and overcome the most difficult stage. The defense is improved.

However, no matter what, the Bobcats just played a tiebreaker in the Eastern Conference semifinals, and the Eastern Conference finals will have another tiebreaker...

It has to be said that for a team that wants to win the championship, it is definitely not a good thing that the road to promotion is so difficult.

Even for a team with a very thick lineup like the Bobcats, Chen Xiao and Jordan don't want to advance in tiebreakers.

However, there is really no way. The Bucks and Cavaliers are really strong. If they don't want to tie the game, they also need the cooperation of the Cavaliers and Bucks.

Obviously, neither the Bucks nor the Cavaliers cooperated.

Of course, the tiebreaker between the Bobcats and Bucks must be tense, helpless and exciting for the players of the two teams.

But for the audience, it was so exciting.

Especially the Spurs, who have taken the lead in defeating the Lakers 4-2 to advance to the finals.

Bobo can't wait for five overtimes in the tiebreaker between the Bobcats and Bucks!

"The Eastern Conference is too fierce and cruel this year!"

Bobo admired and was happy in front of the TV.

After all, good things bring me pain!
