Chapter 286 3 consecutive victories

The Eagles sent the ball out of bounds, and Crawford tried to catch the ball, but was once again encountered by Yingxiong's tough defense.Jeff Teague received the ball and saw that there was no chance to pass it to Crawford, so he played tactics by himself.

Zaza Pachulia received the ball under the basket, and the hook was interfered by Gadzuric-missed.

Ilyasova received the rebound and passed it to Ridnour to advance.

Ridnour dribbled over and continued to give Stackhouse on the weak side a one-on-one to eat Crawford.It is true that Stackhouse is no longer at his peak, but he can play for 10 minutes off the bench, and he can do it without hesitation.Facing the thin Crawford, he can be regarded as a soft persimmon, and he will crush you with the ball.

Crawford's weight and strength are not as good as the old Stackhouse's. He was squeezed into a deeper position by the opponent, and his teammates couldn't help coming over to help defend.In this way, others will put less and more.

Stackhouse is an old fox. Seeing himself being flanked, he immediately distributed the ball to an open teammate.The Eagles' players struggled to rotate to cover.But the problem is that no matter how fast a person runs, he will definitely not be able to keep up with the speed of the ball.

The ball finally fell into the hands of Ying Xiong who was outside the 3-point line in the left corner.Faced with this kind of good opportunity, the rhythm is also very good. He catches the ball and shoots a jumper-a 3-pointer!It was his first 3-point shot of the postseason and his first postseason 3-pointer.

The point difference was widened to 10 points, and the Eagles coach requested a timeout!

The fans cheered constantly. This game not only allowed the fans to see the determination of the team, but also saw that the team has the strength to win the series.

After returning to the game, the Eagles' offense has been adjusted. The ball is not concentrated on Crawford alone. The team also arranged new tactics for him, such as off-ball screens to help him catch the ball and arrange shooters to help him. Sudden points and so on.

But on the defensive end, Crawford still couldn't guard Stackhouse. As a result, the Hawks' bench lineup not only failed to chase points, but was told by the opponent that the point difference continued to widen.

After the main players of both sides returned in the second quarter, the Bucks still had a high offensive efficiency. Amid the cheers of the home fans, they made decisive shots and actively defended. The point difference has not been narrowed.

As a result, at halftime, the Bucks still led by double digits.

The offensive efficiency of the Bucks dropped in the second half, but the Eagles still failed to regain their sense of offense, and they were still playing hard.As a result, after the third quarter, the point difference was close to 3 points.

In the last quarter, the Bucks played steadily and did not give their opponents a chance to counterattack. In the last half of the game, they entered garbage time.

In the end, the Bucks beat the Eagles at home, kept their first home game, won the team's first playoff victory of the season, and tied the score at 1:2.

Ying Xiong played 18 minutes off the bench in this game and made 5 of 3 shots, including 3 of 2 1-pointers and 2 free throws. He scored 9 points, 5 rebounds, 2 assists, 2 steals and 1 block.In addition to restricting the top scorer Crawford from the opponent's bench, he also played well on the offensive end.Statistics show that when he is on the court, the team's plus-minus value is as high as 15+.

After the game, Bucks coach Skiles attended a press conference with Salmons and Jennings.In an interview, he said that the performance of the main players in this game established the tone of the game. For the Bucks, this game must be won. The players performed very well and we successfully kept the home court.

When the reporter asked him what he thought about Yingxiong's performance, he said that Yingxiong's performance was very good and brought vitality to the bench!
On April 4, Game 27 of the first round of the Bucks VS Eagles playoffs continued at the Bradley Center, home of the Bucks.In this game, the Eagles who lost in the last game did not change their starting lineup, and the winning Bucks are even less likely to change their starting lineup.

As soon as this game came up, the Eagles, who lost in the previous game, learned their lesson and tried hard to get the start, leading by 12:6.But from then on, Delfino of the Bucks began to break out, hit consecutive 3-pointers, and soon tied the score.

After both sides were in the rotation, the second team of the Bucks led by Ying Xiong had higher offensive and defensive efficiency, gradually controlled the situation on the court, and slowly opened up the point difference.The second team of the Hawks relies too much on Crawford for scoring, and other players don't contribute much.

When the Eagles were inferior to their opponents in the second lineup, the main lineup was also beaten a bit by the opponent.At halftime, the Bucks took the lead.

The game in the second half was almost a replica of the first half. The Bucks still firmly controlled the situation of the game and finally maintained their advantage until the end.

In the end, the Bucks, who played at home, made another victory, kept the home court again, and tenaciously tied the big score at 2:2.

应雄本场比赛依然替补出战20分钟，得到10分3篮板1助攻3抢断，表现依然不错。

The Eagles went from a 2:0 lead to being equalized by their opponents, and the chances of even winning the game were very small, which gave them a strong sense of crisis.They didn't expect the Bucks back home to be so terrifying, completely different from the away game.

For the Bucks, being able to tie the big score and see the hope of promotion again, the morale of the team is also boosted.But for them, it's just about keeping the home court.In fact, if the two teams keep their home courts, the Eagles, which still have home court advantage, will advance.So for the Bucks, if they want to advance to the second round, they must steal at least one victory away.

On April 4, with a big score of 29:2, the Bucks headed to Atlanta confidently to compete with the Eagles in Game 2 of the first round of the playoffs.This game is called "Battle of Tianwang Mountain". Judging from past historical confrontations, whoever wins this game has a high probability of being able to advance.This game is very important for both sides, because the winning side will directly face the match point.

Of course, this game is even more impossible to lose for the Eagles at home, because they have lost two games in a row. If they lose this game again, they will have to return to Milwaukee for the next game, and the hope of advancing is slim.

Ying Xiong got the news from the coaching staff before the game that the team decided to use a 9-man rotation in this game, so he will not get the chance to play.

For Ying Xiong, this was somewhat unacceptable.In such a crucial game, he couldn't even play.The problem is that in the two games I played, the team won, and I played very well, with a high plus-minus value.But he was soon relieved, because this was beyond his control, he just had to do his job well.

In this game, the two sides played very anxiously from the beginning, and the score also took the lead alternately.In the last quarter, under the excellent performance of Salmons, he defeated his opponent away and won the "Battle of Tianwang Mountain".
