Chapter 306
Nov. 4, Milwaukee.

Although it was the most critical fourth game of the series, the Bradley Center was unusually cold.

In fact, in G3, the attendance at the Bradley Center was not high, and Kenny Smith and Barkley are no strangers to it.

American Yu Jia Skip Bayless, who appeared as a guest commentator, was a little surprised——

"There are so many vacancies in the Bradley Center? Are the Bucks running out of fans? This is their life and death battle in the playoffs?!"

Barkley spread his hands, and Kenny Smith could only tell this simple-minded guy: "The attendance rate of the Bradley Center in G3 was not high, or earlier, during the regular season, Milwaukee's football market was very sluggish."

In the first ten years of the 21st century, Milwaukee's ball market has always been the bottom of the league. It was not until the addition of Antetokounmpo and the arrival of a new boss that Milwaukee's ball market gradually improved.

The current Bucks have also found many ways to improve the ball market and increase income.

Including the selection of the UAE and Chinese boy Joe Alexander in the draft, the target Chinese market, and reinforcement operations in various trading markets, hoping to use the record to increase attendance...

There are still some effects. In the first half of this season, the Bucks' rising record and Jennings' gorgeous scoring performance have indeed attracted a lot of fans.

But for Milwaukee's already collapsed ball market, this improvement is far from enough.

In the extremely cold atmosphere of the Bradley Center, the fourth game between the Bobcats and the Bucks began.

"Andrew Bogut, he squeezed DeAndre Jordan, the Bucks won the opening ball!"

"Brenton Jennings, quick ball forward..."

"Frontcourt, left of the top of the arc, still Andrew Bogut, gave a screen..."

"Branton Jennings beats Stephen Curry and hits a long two from the [-]-point line!"

Swish-!
"The goal is scored, the Bucks' offense in this game is very smooth!"

Kenny Smith sighed with emotion, but at the same time, he also discovered that Jennings scored a goal in the opening game, but the Bradley Center didn't have much reaction.

"This game is really meaningless."

Li Ke also found it boring. Originally, he planned to use a return of the king to fight back against the outsiders who said that he was restrained by Tony Allen.

But now, facing the atmosphere of such a stadium, he really can't get any more energy.

On the court, turning heads, the Bobcats' offense, Curry singles.

One is to return one, and the other is that the Bobcats' established tactics are to let him attack with the ball first to open up the situation.

In the opening game, Curry copied Jennings' style of play, but the jumper off the screen achieved completely different results.

With a bang, the basketball smashed out of the frame.

The same attack at the beginning had different results, which seemed to indicate that this game was not easy.

In the subsequent rounds, this ominous hunch was confirmed.

"Steph Curry, tried the touch from outside the three-point line... still didn't make it!"

"Turn around, the Bucks' offense...is still Brandon Jennings, with the same strong three-point shot from outside!"

Swish-!
"The ball is in!"

"The game lasted about 4 minutes, and the Bucks played a very different performance from the previous three games. They have already achieved an 12-point lead with a score of 4 to 8!"

"Branton Jennings made great contributions. On the offensive end, he scored 8 points. On the defensive end, he also successfully limited Stephen Curry, who has performed well in the past three games."

The beauty also said at this time: "If Brandon Jennings can continue to be hot and drive his teammates along the way, this game may have a different result."

Hearing this, Barkley felt that the business was coming: "So, Skip, do you think the Bucks in this game can beat the Bobcats and refuse to sweep?"

The beauty is not Mei Yangyang, who doesn't have the passive skill of being slapped in the face. He avoided it vigilantly: "I'm just guessing, Charles, everything depends on the follow-up pause. Whether the Bobcat's adjustment is effective, isn't it?"

In 4 minutes and 8 points behind, Rivers couldn't sit still.

On the sidelines, there was a crisp whistle, and the beauty paused in her mouth, and he came.

The atmosphere in the Bradley Center was still sluggish, but Li Ke, who walked slowly to the sidelines, found that Curry's performance in this game was going to force him to play.

That's right, Li Ke believes that the Bobcats lagging behind in the start of this game is because Curry is alone, unable to attack and defend, and unable to defend.

At this time, the Bobcats need him to stand up and solve the problem.

"Stephen's condition is a bit bad, Sheldon, you need to stand up and attack."

Li Ke felt that there was no problem, so he nodded.

Rivers also showed his trust in Li Ke, and turned his head to Hua's second child: "Gerald, your defense should be faster. In the next game, I want to see Brandon Jennings' misfire."

This adjustment is to solve the problem of Jennings.

As the rookie single-game scoring leader in the regular season, once Jennings goes crazy, it is still a bit scary.

It's just that if you make up the defense and assist in the defense a little faster, there is nothing wrong with Hua's second child, and he immediately gave an OK gesture.

The timeout ended, and the adjustment of the Bobcats appeared immediately.

"The Bobcats kicked off the sideline, or Stephen Curry, took the ball across the halfcourt..."

"After half court, he passed the ball, and it was Sheldon who caught it."

"So, in the end, did the Bobcats hand the ball to Sheldon?"

At this time, Meirenyu can finally get to the point: "We can finally test Tony Allen's defense. Whether Shelton's slump in the first round of the playoffs is due to Tony Allen's defense can be solved."

This is the purpose of Beauty Yu joining the commentary of this game.

Although the topic of "Tony Allen locked Li Ke" was not so hot before the game, it was still a topic anyway, and Beauty Yu felt that he could have more discussions on this topic in a divergent manner.

The key is whether the Bobcats are about to sweep the Bucks, whether Li Ke's performance can continue.

To be honest, seeing that Li Ke was about to start playing singles, the beauty was a little panicked.

He knew that in the first three games of the first round of the playoffs, Li Ke's performance was just a bit soy sauce, not sluggish.

It's okay for the Bobcats to go well in this game, and Li Ke will continue to soy sauce.

But now, the situation is forcing Li Ke to no longer have soy sauce.

This means that before Shan Mao and Li Ke, there are only two ways to go——

Or, Li Ke really lost to the defense of Mr. Tony, as discussed by the outside world, and the Bobcats fell into a hard fight, losing or relying on defense to win with difficulty.

Or, Li Ke exerted his strength, smashed Tony Allen's defense, and led the team to an easy victory.

What the beauty wanted to see was the former, but on the field, Li Ke had already set up his position, with a fake back, and the moment he turned his back, he turned back again.

Just turning around like this, Li Ke has already galloped past Tony Allen.

Of course, Mr. Tony's defense was not that simple. He quickly attached Li Ke and continued to pester him with his nimble little body.

But at this time, Mr. Tony's entanglement with Li Ke could no longer constitute an effective threat.

Unless, the Bucks assign another defensive player to help defend Li Ke.

But Scott Skiles has always held the idea of ​​using Tony Allen to solve Li Ke alone, and there is no such thing as defense assistance.

Without assistance in defense, Li Ke went all the way to the basket, put up his left arm to fend off Tony Allen, and rose into the air with his huge right hand raised upwards, sending the ball into the basket with ease.

"Is this Tony Allen's restriction on Sheldon?"

In the commentary seat, Barkley spread his hands, he wanted to laugh a little.

Before the game, Mei Yangyang and Meiren Yu together advocated Tony Allen's restrictive effect on Li Ke. As a result, when Li Ke really started to get serious, Tony Allen's defense collapsed at the touch of a finger.

The beautiful Yu Yu, who was commentating on the spot, also spread her hands, but deep down, he had already beeped the dog.

At the same time, deep in his heart, he was also shouting: "Tony Allen, give me some strength!"

On the court, Li Ke knew why the ball was so easy. To be honest, Mr. Tony was careless.

In this series, most of Li Ke's offenses were catch-and-shoot without the ball, or even catch-and-shoot, and most of them were stealing chickens near the low post.

The number of times he has attacked with the ball can be counted on his fingers, let alone the singles with the formation.

So, when Tony Allen saw Li Ke turning his back, his first reaction was that Li Ke was going to open the situation by rolling his back, just like in the regular season.

His single defense has always been aggressive, and it is even more so when facing Li Ke's back, and he immediately posted it directly.

Who would have thought that Li Ke suddenly changed his style, and his back was just a fake move. When Tony Allen approached him, he turned around and accelerated, quickly opening the distance.

As long as there is room for a breakthrough, Li Ke, who has more physical fitness, will be unstoppable.

It is also the above reasons that lead to——

On the sidelines, when Skiles wanted to adjust, Tony Allen waved his hand, meaning: believe me, I can do it!
The Bucks counterattacked quickly, and Jennings, who scored consecutively, was already full of confidence, but after the timeout, the Bobcats made up the defense very quickly, and the second Hua quickly stuck to Jennings.

Faced with the pinch defense, Jennings shot straight, without any intention of passing the ball.

Clang!
The basketball hits the hoop...

Speaking of which, Jennings' offensive talent is there, but his shot selection is very problematic.

In the first three games of the series, he could still keep in mind Skiles' advice and pass the ball more.

After losing three games in a row, Jennings had already forgotten about passing the ball. Especially in this game, when his state was so hot at the beginning, passing the ball was even more impossible.

The Bobcats' defensive adjustment is considered a success at this point.

The next thing to watch is Li Ke's singles.

Teacher Tony has already waved his hand and rejected the defense of his teammates. In this wave of singles, what Li Ke needs to face is the solo defense of Teacher Tony.

This time, Teacher Tony was serious. Even though Li Ke turned his back, he still stretched out his right arm to resist Li Ke while maintaining a safe distance of half a body.

There was not much room for turning around and rushing again, but Li Ke was not in a hurry, he straightened his buttocks and pushed towards the basket while crushing.

Two steps, three steps, Tony Allen couldn't stand Li Ke, he could only retreat passively.

When Li Ke suddenly turned around, he continued to choose a safe defensive strategy, keeping a distance, preventing breakthroughs and shots.

But Li Ke stopped abruptly, trying to make a move, forcing Teacher Tony to get closer.

Immediately, he received the ball again and accelerated forward. Just like that, he passed Mr. Tony again...

In the commentary seat, there is no FK to say about the beauty, so is Tony Allen's single defense?

Obviously, both Meiren Yu and Mei Yangyang underestimated Li Ke's singles ability.

The reason for the underestimation is actually very simple——

First of all, most of the memories of the beauties Yu and Mei Yangyang are still in the last season, and last season, Li Ke had no S-level breakthrough. Facing a entangled defensive player like Tony Allen, there is really not much to do.

At that time, the Bobcats, who were in turmoil, also needed Li Ke to stand up and score.

By this season, with the blessing of S-level breakthroughs, it is already difficult for the entangled defensive players to withstand the impact of Li Ke.

Even if Li Ke can be blocked by consciousness in one shot, Li Ke can also rely on fake moves, and then tear apart the opponent's single defense again.

One feint is not enough, just another one...

The wave of singles just now is an example. If one back is not enough, then add a turn after rolling the push. If one turn is not enough, then add a fake throw.

Anyway, the rhythm is in Li Ke, no matter how good the opponent's defensive awareness is, there is no way to judge Li Ke's successive waves of fake moves.

As long as there is a wave of mistakes, Li Ke can rely on his unparalleled physical fitness to crush the opponent and score the ball.

At the beginning of this season, the Bobcats were not much different from last season.

In the second half of the season, Li Ke's singles was successful, Rivers joined, Curry was activated, and the Bobcats didn't need Li Ke to force singles to score.

It can only be said that the beauties Yu Hemei and Yang Yang have never realized that Li Ke's singles are already at the level of historical bugs.

Including Scott Skiles, also failed to realize this.

It can be said that there are only a handful of players in today's league who can lock down Li Ke with a single defense.

The main reason is that the conditions are too harsh. Not only must the defensive awareness be top-notch, but the body must also be able to withstand the impact of Li Ke, whose strength and speed both reach S-level.

Looking at the current league, the only ones who can achieve these two points are Le Bang, Brother Yi, and PJ Tucker.

Turns out Tucker was still on his own...

Speaking of Tucker, he's been on the bench for two seasons with the Bobcats.

When Sam Vincent was coaching, he had no chance at all. Instead of Rivers, he still got some playing time.

It shouldn't be too far before Tucker realizes his talent.

……

On the field, Li Ke scored two consecutive singles, and Skiles once again made an adjustment gesture.

Even if you are as confident as Teacher Tony, you have to accept the reality that you must adjust.

Next, when the Bobcats attacked, Li Ke continued to play singles.

Although there were more defenses, Li Ke still fought a wave without hesitation.

After a time gap, Li Ke sent the ball into the basket despite the double attack.

In this game, Li Ke couldn't keep playing one against two like playing magic.

But as long as the opponent's defense is in place, there will be room for teammates to attack, and the Bobcats' offense will survive.

In the end, under Li Ke's efforts, the game got back on track.

 I went to get the new crown vaccine yesterday. After the vaccination, I felt a little dizzy and sleepy, so I stopped for a day.
