"Yes, they played well. We basically got a feel for what the outcome of this game would be. We didn't do well today on both ends of the offensive and defensive ends......" Chen said at the press conference, without much expression, as if recalling the game.

122：103！ It didn't take long for the second half for the Nets to go into garbage time. Chen no longer sends all the main players to play.

John 11 points, 7 rebounds and 3 assists! Meke had 16 points and 10 rebounds, and Antetokounmpo had 31 points, 12 rebounds, 5 assists and 3 blocks! Malcolm had 12 points, 5 rebounds and 3 assists, and Eric had 18 points, 4 rebounds and 5 assists!

On the Nets side, Garnett had 16 points, 7 rebounds and 4 assists! Dent 9 points, 13 rebounds and 2 assists! Williamson had 15 points, 4 rebounds and 3 assists, and Jeremy Lin had 22 points, 7 rebounds and 7 assists! Rose had 19 points, 3 rebounds and 4 assists!

The Brooklyn side didn't expect the Milwaukee Bucks to keep their form until the end. Williamson didn't score many points in the game, scoring 15 points in 26 minutes of play.

The performance of the Bucks was a wake-up call for the Nets, including Chen, who originally thought that teams like the Heat, Bucks, and 76ers would not be much stronger this season.

But it's teams like the Bucks that teach the Nets a lesson. When I went back, the players felt as if they hadn't come back to their senses. They were a little unconvinced that the Bucks could play like that.

The game against them seems to have turned into the heat of the last game.

"Don't underestimate the enemy, we will play the Pelicans in the next game, and their ability is very good now. It's a different kind of toughness," Chan told the players in today's training.

The Pelicans have won and lost almost half of their most recent games. However, they showed a good quality on the field. Especially when the team has great players in five positions, sometimes it can burst out with a lot of energy!

After discussing with the coaches, Chen returned home. He was so impressed with the Bucks' performance that the Nets would have been on vacation if that had happened in a few games in the playoffs.

The Pelicans, Heat, 76ers, and Bucks are basically all able to make the playoffs. Such an opponent also made Chen feel the pressure.

"Today's opponent I want you to play against them in the playoffs. We don't have a lot of regular season games left, and we basically don't take the last few games too seriously, so we're going to hone in on it now."

Chen spoke to the players in the hotel before the game. After Chen came back, he let the team continue to win, as if he had dragged back the team's state of losing a little too much, but it seemed to go back to the last game.

It's okay if you don't want to, but once you think about it, it puts a certain amount of pressure on the players. That's the impression that the game is giving everyone. It seems that some other teams are not weak!

Among the teams in the East, the Nets are not very sure that they can win all other teams except the Cavaliers. At least now I can immediately think of teams like the Celtics, Raptors, and Bucks!

The Heat is okay, but the Pelicans and the 76ers are getting stronger and stronger!

"The Nets are a team that can still be seen in some regular season games this season, and they are not that strong. So in some details should be done as much as possible. When you play, you have to do a good job on the inside, and the attack and organization on the outside ......"

The Pelicans head coach spoke seriously to the players in the pregame locker room.

"It's not going to be easy, if you don't have the ability to break through the opponent's defence or at least keep the same score as him in some statistics, you'll still lose."

Chen looked at the Pelicans' recent games and players on the screen not far away.

"They're pretty good on the inside," said Egyptian Dius.

"Sometimes don't go head-to-head with them. Look for opportunities to deal with them in the game......"

Chen has already felt that the atmosphere in the team is a little different in the past few days. It's just a game, but it still has a certain impact on their hearts.

"Williamson, you're relatively easy there, so try to get as many points as you can. It's the same for the guards here, you have to have a share of the scoring if you can't open the inside, Jeremy Lin, don't pass too much, start attacking in the first quarter! Offensively, we have to score with them to a certain level. Don't break down in the early stage."

It didn't take long for the game to start! Mozgov got the ball from Kaoshen and immediately passed the ball to Lin, and Jamilin passed Rondo and hit a three-point jumper on the right side!

"The coach said let's play this game as a playoff game, and we have to play the strength to play a good game with the Pelicans. If you win or lose, you probably won't be taken too seriously because it's just the regular season, but we value the playoffs, so we value this game......"

After the staff and coaches went out, Rose stopped everyone and gathered around and told them this. Rose's words are still very powerful, and everyone is willing to try them after listening to them!

Rondo came to the front court after receiving Davis's ball in the past, and Egyptian Diyus didn't react to test God and got the basketball directly next to him and forced a breakthrough to score a layup!

Burke held the ball to the frontcourt, and regretted it after directly changing direction and accelerating past the opponent in the confrontation with Holiday , he felt that there was basically no play in it, so he immediately hit the ground and passed to Jeremy Lin, and in the face of Mirotic's assistant defense Lin jumped directly to three points and then hit! 6：2！

Jeremy Lin's constant offense is still unmet for the Pelicans. Mirotic got the ball and immediately passed it to Holiday who immediately missed Burke's jumper for a three-point shot! Egypt's Dius got the basketball and quickly came to the front court after a back-to-back dribble, and Williamson jumped up to the net with a three-point hollow after getting his ball in the bottom corner! 9：2！

Rose didn't play at the start of the game, but his words did a good job for his teammates. The Nets are very resolute on offense right now! Chen also felt good when he saw that the opposing coach was about to take a timeout, and he played in front.

"The defense on the outside has to keep up, they're starting to shoot mainly on offense now, and Jeremy Lin seems to be playing at shooting guard, so you have to pay attention to that. Defensively, they're not as efficient......"

The Nets' style of play at the beginning made the Pelicans a little confused. However, the coach is still relatively calm.

"Ross will go up later. There is no requirement for the attacking method, as long as the opportunity arises, give me a breakthrough immediately. It's as simple as that, you don't have to think too much about anything else, and even a little looser on defense is okay, and you can play out the state! ”

Just like the Bucks from the last game! As long as the Nets can maintain their advantage all the time, they can basically win the game without holding on for three quarters like the Bucks.

Rondo quickly passed half time, and Mirotic got the ball and went straight back with a three-pointer! 9：5！ Rose held the ball across half court, Williamson got the basketball, and was stopped by Davis after passing the opponent directly to Mirotic!

However, the ball in his hand has not been conceded, Lin jumped up for three points after getting his ball, and Egyptian Diyus quickly got the rebound and dunked to score! 11：5！ Although the opponent's interior line is good both defensively and offensively, the Nets are still capable of playing such results after they start to get serious!

The Pelicans have slowed down a bit, and they're watching the Nets right now! The obvious difference from the last game is that the opponent's desire to attack is very strong during the start of the game!

Midwinter passed the ball to Mirotic, and after getting the ball, he dunked 2 points under the bag of the Nets! 11：7！ Lin took the basketball and ran quickly, which aroused the vigilance of the opponent, and immediately two people came to wrap it up, Rose took his pass at this time, attracted the defense again, and threw the ball high to Williamson, who was already unguarded.

At this time, Williamson jumped up and hit a three-point shot as he usually trains! 14：7！

Chen looked at such a performance, although the 7-point difference is nothing for the other party, but it is very cool to watch! Holiday jumped up and hit a three-point shot after receiving Rondo's ball in the frontcourt! 14：10！

The other party is not a vegetarian, and it is not ambiguous to see that Brooklyn is really serious with them! At this time, Lin passed the ball to Rose, and after the latter's three-point miss, Williamson quickly got the rebound and came out, and immediately passed Cousins again after passing Mirotic to score points!! 16：10！

Now is the time for him to step in! The Pelicans are still good in defense and rebounding, and the Nets feel good if they keep relying on long-range shots, but if they are not good, they are more hanging.

With Rondo's three-pointer gone, Egypt's Diyus grabbed a rebound from Davis and passed to Lin, who hit a three-pointer directly in the half! 19：10！

......

"Let's pay attention to the second quarter, we can let them go in this quarter" Chen said to Jim at this time, and the two of them had been talking for a while.

30：21！ Jim meant to take advantage of the victory and chase it to stretch the margin to almost 20 points in the first half! Chen feels that such a possibility is still not very likely. One is that they don't have the defensive ability of the Bucks. Even if Williamson did, the rest of the players were still quite inferior in strength.

"Just keep the advantage in this quarter, we have to fight with them in the third quarter......" In the second quarter of the game, the Pelicans did not change the lineup, and the Nets let Okafor, Allen, and Burke play!

Williamson still can't be easily replaced, and this team can play a certain deterrent role for the Pelicans! With a score difference of 9 points, the atmosphere at the scene did not cool down because of such a result, and it was still very lively.

Rose held the ball across the halfcourt, and after a layup failed, Kao Shen immediately got the rebound and passed the ball to the thick eyebrows. Rondo got up and hit a three-pointer after receiving the ball from the thick eyebrows in the front court! 30：24！

With this three-pointer, the fans immediately cheered! Burke held the ball across the half court, passed the opponent directly in the opposite position with Holiday and then used his feet to pass Davis and then quickly stepped back to shoot the basketball into the basket! 32：24！

Among the players who came up in this quarter, Okafor and Burke, two players are still okay, but they basically play as substitutes in the Nets team. Chen asked them to come up to give his team a buffer time, and Williamson's physicality allowed him to play the full 40 minutes with little to nothing. It's different for other teams, they need to recover.

Rondo passed the ball to Holiday after half-time, who got the three points again! 32：27！ This quarter of the game is also a test for the Nets, as long as they are overtaken by the opponent in this quarter, then the rest of the game will be difficult to say.

Will Brooklyn be able to win them in the third quarter? It's hard to say.

Williamson took the basketball again, he and Burke looked at each other, and after Williamson began to feign offense, he immediately passed the ball to Burke, who jumped up and hit a three-point shot! 35：27！

"It's wonderful!!" Williamson raised his hand and high-fived Burke in celebration!

Mirotic dribbled the ball to the frontcourt, Cousins got the basketball and immediately went to the basket and was covered by Williamson! Allen picks up the basketball and passes it to Burke! After receiving Trey's ball in the frontcourt, the rose jumped up and hit the three-point board into the basket! 38：27！

Although Chen thinks so, he doesn't think so from the players, they think it should be similar to the first quarter! Because both Okafor and Burke are very confident in themselves!

Mirotic didn't choose to pass the ball this time, and when he was about to lose 24 seconds with Williamson, he suddenly made a feint to shake off the opponent and get 2 points on a backward jumper! 38：29！

Although Williamson was not until Mirotic's age, the opponent used skill to shake him off in the process of playing! What the Pelicans need is the consistency and consistent statistical contribution of Mirotic!

Allen jumped up and shot after receiving Rose's pass, which was directly interfered with by Kaoshen! Okafor was directly covered by thick eyebrows after getting the basketball! Apparently these two underestimated each other's defensive capabilities!

Rondo watched the pass and immediately went to the frontcourt, and scored a layup himself after passing Burke! 38：31！ Rose holds the ball across half court.

After passing the opponent directly in the contest with Holiday in the competition, he immediately passed the ball in the air to Burke, who jumped directly and hit a three-point shot! 41：31！ The other party asked for a timeout at this time, and they felt hopeless if they continued to fight like this.

"Today, the opponent's offensive state is really good, our defense is weaker. Spend your main energy on offense! Williamson has to cooperate more and don't fight him hard. Rondo, go down and get some rest......"

The opposing coach brought on Clarke for Rondo during the timeout.

"Don't pay too much attention to the opponent's play, no matter how they play in a while. All I want is to keep an eye on the score and push it up on top of that. That's what we're going to do in this section," Chan was resolute when he saw the players come back.

It's as if they're falling behind. The players knew they couldn't relax now, so they listened very carefully, and the Nets didn't make any substitutions during this timeout.

Clark held the ball across half the court, and Bushy Eyebrows immediately scored a jumper after receiving his ball! 41：33！ Williamson took serve and went to the front court, where Rose then got his pass.
