Chapter 262 Bringing the Championship Back to Milwaukee?Lore!Two consecutive championships!

"is it okay?"

"Everything is going according to plan!"

On June 6, the fourth game of the finals between the Bucks and the Mavericks started on this day.

Now that the first three quarters of the game have been played, the score on the court is 90 to 87, and the Bucks win by 3 points.

After the end of the third quarter, He Li went off the court and exchanged ideas with George Karl.

Everyone has the same idea, this game can be given up, but still can't let the Mavericks play too easily.

In the next fourth quarter, He Li will continue to play and continue to put pressure on the Mavericks team, so as to consume the mental and physical strength of the Mavericks' 8-man rotation.

However, for the purpose of the Bucks being consistent from top to bottom, at the last moment, He Li will still choose to stop.

As early as last season, the Bucks boss mentioned one thing to He Li and other core players on behalf of Milwaukee fans, but now it's just a rehash of old things.

And what kind of secret is there in this?

It was nothing but bringing the championship back to Milwaukee, where it was crowned at the Bradley Center in front of tens of thousands of Milwaukee fans.

The opponent of the Bucks last season was the OK combination at their peak. The core players of the Bucks headed by He Li naturally did not dare to take it lightly and agreed to such a bold and absurd "request" from the boss.

But this season, the opponent is the Mavericks who have reached the finals for the first time and are mainly young players.

In addition, the Bucks won the championship last season, He Li and others have fulfilled their dream of winning the championship, and the boss and management treated He Li and others really well.

Therefore, in the current 3-0 situation, He Li is willing to take the risk of losing the championship and FMVP, and promises to the boss and management that he is willing to return to Milwaukee and win the final victory in this round of finals.

He Li made the move, and the Three Musketeers, Reed and the others had no objections.

As for the Bucks head coach George Karl, there is no shortage of the record of sweeping the finals. After all, it has been achieved last season, and the championship ring is also there.

After the Bucks agreed with each other, they temporarily adjusted the play style and strategy of the next two games.

Judging from the effect of today's game, it is indeed not bad.

The Bucks, who were originally the best offensive player in the league, put in a lot of effort on the defensive end in today's game.

Although compared with previous finals, the defensive intensity is not great.

However, under the offensive firepower of the Bucks with 90 points in three quarters, the Mavericks, who can limit the penalty advantage, scored lower than them. From this point of view, the Bucks are indeed successful.

It is worth mentioning that the number of free throws made by the Mavericks today is still quite terrifying, with 32 free throws in three quarters.

And because Dirk Nowitzki and Nash mainly executed free throws, the Mavericks made a total of 28 free throws, and the shooting percentage was close to [-]%, which is outrageous.

But having said that, although the Mavericks scored a lot of free throws, under the defense of the Bucks, their scores in sports games were much worse than those in the previous three games.

Because of the Bucks' successive battles and the impact of too much physical contact in this game, the touch has also declined.

However, the Bucks scored 79 points in the first three quarters from sports games.

It can also be seen from this that how stable and advantageous the Bucks are in terms of scoring.

It is with such an advantage that He Li dared to play the game of bringing the championship back to Milwaukee.

"Everyone has done a good job, especially Popeye. So far, He Li has only scored 21 points. Your defense is really indispensable."

During the break before the start of the fourth quarter, Nelson was not stingy with words of praise, and kept encouraging the players who worked tirelessly for the Mavericks to win the championship.

Popeye Jones was highly praised by Nelson because he limited He Li, who scored 51 points in the game, and only scored 21 points in the first three quarters of this game.

If someone else was on the Mavericks' bench, they might be surprised that the opponent's player scored 21 points in three quarters. Is such a defense all contributed?

21 points in three quarters is already against the sky, okay!
But in the Mavericks team, no matter the players or the members of the uniform team, they couldn't help showing a look of complacency when they heard what Old Nelson said.

"He Li is no longer miraculous, He Li is also a human being, and he will be tired."

"We need to keep playing this defense, this aggressive defense!

But we are still behind, so we have to play a stronger and more efficient offense.

Believe me, the Bucks have come to an end, and they can only hit a wall if they go any further.

And for us, we have a lot of opportunities to catch them!

Let us work together to catch up with them! "

When it came to the finals, when the score was at a critical moment, Nelson didn't have the heart to arrange any tactics. He focused more on encouraging the team's morale and emphasizing the importance of defense and offense.

And the old Nelson's doing so is precisely in line with the Bucks' strategic needs.

The successive battles did make the Bucks players a little tired, but anyway, the Bucks have a deep lineup for the playoffs, not only the core players, but also the bench players.

On the other hand, with the Mavericks, there are only 8 players in the rotation.

Fortunately, no one was injured by the Mavericks. Otherwise, the Bucks were really afraid that the Mavericks would not be able to win this game and the next game.

A little mention, because the current finals is a 232 game system, the Bucks want to return to Milwaukee to win the championship, in the case of winning three games first, they need to lose two games in a row.

Fortunately, even if it is a 3-2 situation, it is still beneficial to the Bucks overall.

Because there are two home games behind.

For the vast majority of players, there is a big difference between playing with fans and without them.

Home fans have a great influence on the visiting team players. Even if there is no loud noise during the game, they will more or less create a lot of psychological pressure on the visiting team players.

Not to mention that in a stage like the finals, home court advantage does exist.

Now that the Bucks are a guest at the American Airlines Center, they are playing against pressure, but the overall advantage of the Bucks is indeed great. As the leader of the team, He Li, once it explodes, no one on the Mavericks side can stop it.

G3, which has ended before, is enough to prove this point.

However, He Li is still very friendly to the Mavericks and Mavericks fans today.

Although He Li is still scoring, he is still both offensive and defensive, and has a full sense of presence on the court, but He Li did not burst out like the last game, coming out to take over everything.

And in the fourth quarter, He Li did not once again play a 20+ performance in a single quarter, leading the team to win the game.

Even, with 3 minutes left in the game and the Bucks trailing by only 2 points, He Li was replaced in a dead ball.

As the head of the team and the FMVP of last season, He Li has the conditions to stay on the court and play the crucial 3 minutes.

But He Li chose to follow George Karl's arrangement.

This made Mavericks insiders and Mavericks fans feel a little weird, but at the last moment of the game, they were only lucky.

"Carlos Boozer hit a three-pointer from the bottom corner, 112 to 112, the two teams tied the score!"

"False and real shot, Dirk Nowitzki shakes Kwame Brown and shoots a fallback jumper, winning the game!"

He Li's early exit has already revealed the attitude of the Bucks to take the initiative to give up the game.

Unexpectedly, when Boozer was behind by three points in the last 17 seconds, just one player actually had a natural taste of a three-pointer.

After the absolute tie, not only did the fans pause for breath, but the Bucks were also instantly Sparta.

Fortunately, the Mavericks won the game in the end and did not destroy the Bucks' plan to return to Milwaukee to win the championship.

It's just that Nowitzki completed the lore on the head of the Bucks.

Especially in the life-and-death battle of the finals, this kind of coincidence is a bit intriguing.

The Mavericks let three chase one and won the life-and-death battle. It can be said that they have renewed their lives.

And completed the lore on the head of the defending champion Bucks!The morale within the team and the prospect of the championship are simply incredible.

Facing the bad luck of being eliminated in the finals, the Bucks also held a meeting after the game.

However, after the discussion at the meeting, everyone still maintained a consistent view-continue to implement the previous plan.

However, how to play G5 requires a new plan.

The time soon came to June 6, and the Mavericks were looking forward to the start of G13, the finals planned by the Bucks.

"Steve Nash makes a low layup!"

"Michael Reid made a three-pointer and responded successfully."

"Dirk Nowitzki hits the iron mid-range."

"He Li scored two three-pointers in a row, really unstoppable!"

"Michael Finley drives to the hoop for a dunk."

"The Alien Cassell made a mid-range shot from behind."

"Dirk Nowitzki hits a [-]-pointer with a sharp shot."

"Ray Allen made another three-pointer from the corner!"

"Michael Finley's emergency stop was disturbed and the shot went wide."

"Big Dog Robinson throws the ball on the move and puts the ball in the basket with ease."

Speaking of which, when the Mavericks of G5 first came up, it was as if they had been beaten with chicken blood. They had a decent offense and a pretty good defense.

But after all, it was an 8-man rotation, and it was the fifth game. After the second half, the state was relatively poor.

The Bucks happened to decide the winner in the third quarter, and with their best offense, they strongly disrupted the Mavericks' offensive rhythm.

When encountering continuous basketball bombardment of the basket, and one's own side has no way to respond, the team's morale will suffer a severe blow.

When the Bucks gained 14 and 19 points in the third quarter, the Mavericks had to call two timeouts in a row to adjust the lineup and release the pressure.

However, until the end of the third quarter, the Bucks still beat the Mavericks unilaterally.

This made the Mavericks have to face the cruel reality of being taken away 4-1 in the finals.

Just when the Mavericks thought they had little hope of winning, the Bucks made a bit of a show at the beginning of the fourth quarter.

Actually replaced Juan Dixon, Bobby Simmons and other three-team rotation players.

Although He Li was still on the court, the Three Musketeers and Reed did not play with He Li. Even Kwame Brown was replaced, leaving only Boozer on the court.

In other words, in the fourth quarter of G5 of the finals, He Li played with rookies and rookies.

People in the industry who are watching this game have to speak out and praise the Bucks for their audacity.

Of course, most professionals have already guessed what the Bucks are thinking about the Bucks' show operation.

As everyone thought, the Bucks, who were leading by nearly 20 points, lost to the Mavericks again with a gap of 5 points.

But judging from the results, the Bucks are not at a loss.Although the Bucks lost G5, they also regained the opportunity to return to Milwaukee and return to home games.

When the Mavericks traveled to Milwaukee, facing the scene of Bucks fans inside and out, the players who had never faced such a battle had to play with some fear.

Perhaps the enthusiasm of the Bucks fans played a role, or maybe the fatigue value of the Mavericks players finally reached the threshold.

82 to 126, the Bucks effortlessly achieved a 6-point advantage at home in G42, beating the Mavericks lightly, achieving the goal of winning the championship at home, and also achieved the feat of the second consecutive championship.

"The MVP of the Finals is the MVP of the regular season. Bucks No. 17 player—He Li, let us celebrate together. Congratulations to He Li for winning the Finals MVP again!"

With Stern's announcement and Russell's awards, He Li once again won the FMVP trophy and became the most shining star on the stage of the finals.
