“Two players have the best ability in the world if they attack 1on1”
Bucks has topped the East Conference with 60 and 56 wins over the past two seasons. Although the Raptors bite in both seasons, they made a big difference to the teams below that, but now that advantage has collapsed and it is in a melee pattern like the West. Nets is likely to be the decisive factor in changing the eastern power map, and with the addition of James Harden to Kyrie Irving and Kevin Durant, the potential is sufficient. On the 18th, he beat Bucks with 125-123.
It’s a match card that can be hit in the final of the East Conference, but as it was still in the first half of the regular season, both teams pushed each other with a bullish offense rather than putting up with defense, and for better or worse, I could not feel the “playoff atmosphere”. .. Nets pushed through the open match that was unique to this period with his talent. It’s going to be a completely different development in the real game, the second half of the season and the playoffs, but it’s clear that Nets, which had been unmarked so far, is becoming a terrifying rival.
At the press conference after the match against Nets, Janice Adetokumbo said he was wary of Nets. “They are the players with the best abilities in the world if they attack 1on1 and score 30 points each game. If you don’t take proper measures, you can get 50 points. We also intend to focus on defense. I’ve been killed and Irving is coming back to Nets. “
While Durant and Harden’s duo demonstrated their scoring ability in the game, Bucks was dull. Adetokumbo left 34 points and 12 rebounds and stats, but he should have attacked the inside that DeAndre Jordan defended more from the beginning. Nets’ front coat, which let go of Jarrett Allen in the trade, is lacking in quality and quantity. Nonetheless, the number of rebounds was 41-49, surpassing Nets.
It also hurts that the second units were all in trouble. Nets has lost a lot of rotation players, so I want to overwhelm the time when the main force is absent. I would like Bobby Portis and DJ Augustin, who joined this season, to fit the team soon. And it is necessary to improve the accuracy of team defense. In particular, Clutch Time’s Nets, despite the fact that Harden and Durant were apparently attacking alternately, were simply evaded by 1on1 and scored goals.
This is a part that needs to be improved throughout the season. Bucks has a bitter past with a 1-4 defeat to the 5th-placed team in the east, with no help in the heat’s 3-point shoot offensive in the playoffs last season.
Adetokumbo understands that too. “We have to fight together, learn from the match and grow. We played very well and won the previous match against the Mavericks. It wasn’t bad today, but we lost. I want to play well against the Lakers. It’s important to follow the right path and grow over the long season. Hopefully in May or June I’ll play basketball that says “this is our best” delay”
Adetokumbo agreed to extend the contract with Bucks shortly before the opening. You may have seen that winning the Drew Holiday has set the stage for winning the team, but the team below has more momentum for reform. Nets has become a completely different team from last season and has disturbed the East Conference. Whether Bucks can continue to be the leader of the East Conference, each game from here will be the game.
