Chapter 245 Jordan's dessert area and the big lever!(1/2)

"Michael Jordan, this is your first time losing 40 points in the playoffs. Are you under pressure?"

During the post-match interview, Jordan was questioned by various media.

You know, even the most miserable rookie Jordan has ever experienced in the playoffs, he was beaten by the Pistons Bad Boys Legion and lost 21 points in the end.

After that, Jordan had lost, but he lost at most ten points, and he did not lose 20 games for the second time.

Now it's better, it's doubled all of a sudden, which makes Jordan, who was originally planning to retire and wants to accept all this calmly, turned black with anger.

Not to mention, the reporter on the scene spread salt on his wound and deliberately caused trouble after the interview.

Now, people all over the world know that Jordan's Wizards were beaten by the Bucks led by He Li for 40 points, which made Jordan's old face go.

Jordan wants to say that this is Starkhouse's team, he has no pressure, and it should be Starkhouse, not him.

However, Jordan was even more embarrassed when he said this.

So, Jordan continued to remain silent, and answered when the host moved to the next topic that could make him feel a little comfortable.

"He Li, did you do it on purpose? Your 17 and Michael Jordan's 23 combined are exactly the difference in today's game!"

Unlike the Wizards, the Bucks are more interesting to answer questions.

Of course, if Jordan was here, it would not be funny at all.

“I didn’t play for a long time in the fourth quarter, I just did what I should do.

I can't make sure how many points our team will end up with, nor can I make sure how many points our team will score.

I don’t have this ability, nor do we have this need.”

He Li naturally never thought about the difference in the score difference by chance.

He Li does think that the Bucks have the ability to abuse the Wizards for 40 points, but they won't think so in advance.

As long as you win more than ten points steadily, the core players of the Bucks can win the game without any problems.

He Li’s idea is that simple.

“It feels wonderful to play at home!

Not only me, we can all feel it!

There are countless people standing behind us, and countless fans support us.

When you feel this positive energy, you will perform exceptionally well.

This is why many rotation players in our team performed extremely well today.

Milwaukee fans are with us, which is the key factor in our victory.”

As the Wizards said, because the Wizards still have to play, the main Bucks will be with him for a while in the fourth quarter. After establishing an absolute advantage, the rest will be based on the second and third-line substitutes.

Just as Paul was played in 58, sometimes the role players will perform very well, which makes people feel crazy.

The Bucks' role players performed well today, and all this is not because the Bucks players do not talk about morality, but because the Bucks fans are still waving flags and shouting for the Bucks even in the garbage time of the fourth quarter when the winner is clear.

Under the influence of such a competitive atmosphere, it is difficult for the Bucks players who have their home court to perform poorly.

"Yes, I think the victory of the next game will still belong to us."

He Li seemed confident about the prospects for G2 when asked by the reporter on the spot.

After the G1 game, it is enough to show the gap between the Wizards and the Bucks.

This gap in lineup cannot be smoothed out by tactics alone or by spiritual encouragement.

Unless a player in the Wizards presses the button to go down to earth, such as Jordan, you can turn on the God of War mode or God mode, which requires some preconditions.

Nowadays, He Li doesn't think Jordan can still score 60 in the playoffs.

He Li felt that it would be difficult for him to do even if he was officially entering his peak period in a few years.

Because the opponent is not a fool, if you don’t have enough defense, you can double-team it. If you can’t defend it, just three, four, or five. If you pay a little more, you can still defend it.

He Li couldn't have five people hanging on his body and threw the ball in, nor could he have contacted three or four bodies every time, and then he could play for 48 minutes.

The Bucks restrict the Wizards and there are many ways to limit Jordan. When dealing with the Wizards, the Bucks can win the game without "winning is ugly".

It was soon April 22nd, and only one day later, the second playoff game between the Bucks and the Wizards began.

The Wizards, who had already lost a game at the Bradley Center, made a lot of adjustments in G2, but the overall effect seemed good, but the final situation was only average.

In order to maximize Jordan's offensive ability, Wizards head coach Doug Collins specially arranged a high-level double-screen tactic for Jordan.

Jordan's ability to off-ball is also top-notch. While Starkhouse's top arc holder attracts defense, he can use the high-level double screening tactic to run up from the bottom line to catch the ball.

Jordan has two options after receiving the ball. On the one hand, Jordan can use unsolved back-playing skills to punish the Bucks' outside and forward players near the free throw line.

On the other hand, Jordan can kill the basket in one step, use his amazing big hands and waist and abdomen to use a super trolley, knocking the Bucks inside player dizzy and unable to touch North.

Logically speaking, Doug Collins used a high-level double-cover tactic to be a very clever strategy.

Starkhouse can help Jordan attract defense, and high-level double screens can allow Jordan to better get rid of the off-ball defender, get open positions, or have one-on-one singles.

If the Bucks are crazy and insist on applying double-teaming on Jordan without the ball, then Starkhouse can use the high-level double cover to pull out the Bucks inside players, clear the space under the basket, and enhance the efficiency of breakthrough.

In fact, Jordan and Starkhouse played much better than G1 in G2.

Jordan scored 35 points, 4 rebounds and 7 assists, which was much better than G1's 29 points, 7 rebounds and 4 assists.

Starkhouse G2 also scored 33 points, and its shooting percentage was much better than G1's 10 of 24 shots. Starkhouse in G2 made 12 of 26 shots, and its shooting percentage was close to 50%.

However, the Wizards' overall efficiency did not increase due to the outstanding performance of the two leading players. Other Wizards' players only scored 31 points from 12 of 37 shots.

The Wizards, who scored more than 100 overall, lost to the Bucks who scored 121 in the game again.

After the game, He Li was asked about his evaluation of the game, and He Li replied seriously: "Some people may think that we are not doing well enough and we can get more points.

This can only be said that you underestimated the Wizards and underestimated Michael Jordan.

The Wizards did a great job in defense, and they had a lot of restrictions on us.

Fortunately, we just need to be ourselves, and we won two consecutive victories with the support of Milwaukee fans."

The Bucks beat the Wizards 22 points, but only scored 121 points in the game, which made many fans feel that the Bucks performed poorly.

After all, it is common for the Bucks to score 130 points during the regular season.

In fact, there is still a difference between the regular season and the playoffs.

Compared with G1, the Wizards' adjustments to G2 are not only in terms of offense, but also in terms of defense.

The Wizards' offensive arrangement was to let Jordan and Starkhouse go freely, and the defense was to be the whole nation, and to fight a round-rotary battle and a war of attrition.

It is worth mentioning that the G1 Wizards rotated 8 people, but when it comes to G2, it is 10 people rotated.

At first glance, Wizards head coach Doug Collins may be trying the lineup to see if there are any bench gangsters hidden in the Wizards' bench.

In fact, Doug Collins used the physical strength, aggressiveness and small movements of the "bench bandit" to consume it, affecting the performance of the Bucks' main force.

I have to say that Doug Collins does have two brushes, and the overall efficiency of the Bucks has decreased.

However, in order for the whole nation to consume the main force of the Bucks separately, He Li is no longer the absolute core of being cared for.

When enjoying the defensive intensity of single defense and double-teaming, He Li's efficiency has also increased.

Therefore, the gap between the Bucks and the Wizards is still very different.

However, after the first two games of the first round, the Bucks are about to move to Washington. It is unknown what the Wizards will wait for the Bucks at home next.

Of course, the Bucks don’t need to worry too much, just be yourself and win the game steadily.

But as the Bucks' opponent in this round of the series, the Wizards obviously don't want to make the Bucks so easy.

The Wizards have the advantage of the home court and have won the lead against the Bucks as soon as they come.

"Michael Jordan ran back and received the ball at the bottom line, three threats, took one step back and took action! Enjoy the silkyness, Michael Jordan ate a dessert in his most comfortable area!"

"He Li's iron-blooded jump shot, the Wizards counterattack, Jerry Starkhouse attacked the basket and successfully seized the opportunity to switch."

"Ray Allen received the ball and missed the ball, Michael Jordan held the ball in the arc, and used the help of a screen to shoot, beautiful, and once again scored 2 points for the Wizards!"

What Jordan is most confident about is the middle distance, but there is still a difference between middle distance and middle distance.

Jordan is more confident in the 45-degree angle on the left and right. Unlike Kobe, who is good at playing singles at low posts, Jordan's low post area is mainly on the right side.

Now there are only these three areas left in Jordan’s dessert area.

However, because Starkhouse threatened to hold the ball on the top arc and the Wizards' high-level double screening, Jordan had many opportunities to enter the dessert area without the ball, or three threats to enter the dessert area in one step.

Sometimes Jordan is the ball holder himself, and the Bucks defensive players do not double-team Jordan in time, so Jordan will use the help of cover to complete a one-on-one single shot.

Moreover, today it seems that Jordan feels very good. With the support of Wizards home fans, Jordan feels unstoppable when he comes.

The Bucks' running and bombardment and the Wizards' positional battle against each other, but the Wizards' better than Jordan's outbreak.

"No need to pay attention to them, we just need to be ourselves." George Carl said to the Bucks starting players after he took the initiative to shout a timeout.

In fact, the score was only 7-13 at this time. The Bucks were also hit by the Wizards with a 6-0 climax, so they quickly called for a timeout and adjusted.

George Carl doesn't think the Bucks will lose in today's game, but because they won too easily before, He Li and his group played too casually.

After all, everyone is subconsciously considering the next round of opponents and does not take the Wizards seriously.
