Chapter 590 - Players Who Don't Play Routinely
"It seems that we should have no suspense this time. The sophistication of Budenholzer has been seen by everyone over the years. Chen, a young man, still has a lot of potential. However, there are still some achievements in his year in charge, and he did not take a vacation directly after the regular season."
The host still paid a little attention to the wording when he said this. Some time ago, someone publicly accused him of racist tendencies. But that still hasn't stopped him from continuing to talk about the Nets and finding fault with them. For example, Goodwin is too thin, and Teague's height is an issue, but that can't change either.
Egypt's Diwe could break the league's record for the most inaccurate free throws, Griffin became the team's leader immediately after arriving in Brooklyn, and so on.
"And guess what?" The guest suddenly said to the host.
"If you want to get out of here now, I can't do it~" The audience was amused by this sentence~
"I'll be blunt, I don't think the Nets are going to be so bad."
"I know this, if I win one game in the playoffs, I really haven't taken it into account, and Atlanta doesn't have any tradition of giving a meeting gift~" This kind of ridicule is a little used to the public, so the audience has nothing to dislike it.
"No, no, Johnson, you misunderstood me. I don't think they had the Cleveland two, but I would say that it's just been two games. And I feel like the Nets are sure to win against the Hawks."
As soon as the guest finished speaking, there was a lot of exclamation at the scene. The sound made the guest feel a little uncomfortable. "Are these extras?" An idea immediately popped into him.
At the same time, I felt that there were not many people on the scene standing on his side, and I felt a little lost.
"I know you~ bet? Dude~"
"Bet on what?" The scene immediately came to interest~
"I don't think I've lost much of a bet with you. In the period from the time since the Nets were eliminated to the present, let you also get a little satisfaction~ How about kissing your ass if I lose? Hahahaha! ”
Host Johnson said with a smile to his old friend. The scene immediately erupted into a coaxing sound~
"Just because you've beaten me a lot doesn't mean I'm going to lose. This time, your courage is a little bigger~ For the sake of fairness, if I lose, I'll kiss your heel here, what do you think? ”
"Are you two already in love?!"
An audience member at the scene suddenly shouted! It amused the audience a lot. The guests who were doing it heard this sentence, including the host.
"You're going to get the spaghetti out of my stomach~ I have something more to tease the contents of your stomach to your mouth~ Do you want to hear it~ I have received some news recently~ Haha, you are careful~ Can we still run a serious sports commentary show? ~”
"No, buddy~" The staff next to the scene immediately finished speaking to the host, and immediately laughed at the scene.
The show is doing a lot more cheerfully now, and they have some controversy on the network.
Chen ate the dishes he had just made, and finally ate the bottomed rice in the bowl. I was going to see other sports news on the show, but I was a little interested after the guest said his predictions about the Nets' playoff game.
The second game ended up losing to the Atlanta Hawks 98-103. Although this time, as in the first game, everyone looked nothing. But in some details, I still found that the players' emotions were somewhat lost.
Originally, the Nets played very hard in the first three quarters! But in the final quarter, the opponent scored too many points! At the end of the game, they were not able to win against them.
......
"In the last game, the defensive end was pretty good," Chen said to him after seeing Welch coming.
"If we lose this game again, we will be very close to the holiday, or almost the end of the season"
"I know that the only one who can beat the Cavaliers at 3-0 down right now is right? We don't learn from them, one is that we haven't reached that time, and the other is that we try to win as much as possible. I'm optimistic."
"We can see that there is a certain amount of slackness in our defense"
"This is our chance, let's discuss what to do in some links."
Basically, immediately after a short break, the coaches started some planning for the next game at the Barclays Centre.
"We've got to win them in this game! They're just the first round of our playoffs! Now it's back to our own home turf......"
In the dressing room, the players seemed a lot quieter than usual. When Chen saw it, he immediately came over and chatted with them for a few words, and then began to say some morale-boosting words!
It didn't take long for me to come to the scene and start warming up. The atmosphere of today's game is very warm! Many people are watching today's live broadcast! There are those who come to see the excitement, and there are those who hope that the Nets can win the game!
After a while, the Eagles lineup came out, which was Plumlee, Ilyasova, Kent, Schroder, and Belleli! Kent got 31 points, 7 rebounds and 4 assists in the last game!
The Nets basically can't do anything about him! There is nothing to be done with him sometimes, and coach Budenholzer...... The player has good pace on his own and has been improving in terms of scoring over the years.
There were times when he was not able to carry out the tasks assigned to him by the Eagles manager. But he did a great job! Looking at today's starts, it is estimated that the coach still made a compromise, as long as the results are good, the team will win, and there is nothing to say.
The Nets' lineup on this end is Mozgov, Egypt's Deyous, Jonathan, Jeremy Lin and Teague! The team's goal is clear, that is, to open up the difference in the first quarter! Tonight you have to take the initiative as much as possible!
Plumlee got the basketball as soon as the game started and quickly dribbled to the front court! After Ilyasova got the ball, he was directly changed by Egyptian Diyus in the air! If you look at the replay later, you can notice that Egyptian Dius has prepared in advance!
Jonathan ran immediately after taking the basketball, and Teague jumped up and hit a three-point shot after getting it! 3:0! The audience immediately cheered! Familiar stadium, and I saw fans I had seen before on the sidelines! Everything feels good!
Schroder went to the frontcourt, and after three points, Mozgov got the basketball directly and passed it directly to Lin's hands! Jonathan jumped up and went through the net as soon as he got the ball!!
The DJ's voice shouted Jonathan's name loudly over the arena! The cheers of the fans seem to be a little higher!
Kent received a pass from Belineri and went directly to the Nets to score an easy layup! 6:2! Lin didn't have three points after halftime! After Egypt's Diyus passed, Jemilin immediately got up to break through and throw in the goal to score!
Budenholzer has seen the Nets' resolve today so far in the opening stanza. He immediately began to think about how to deal with such a team. After Belineri's three-point failure, Lin got the rebound and immediately threw the ball high to Teague, who came to the front court and passed the ball to Jonathan, dribbled twice in front of the empty basket and dunked the basketball directly!!
10:2! The opposing coach immediately called for a timeout.
"You, and um, come up and go up in a moment. Don't rush to attack, pass the ball well, don't imitate the opponent. That's it," Budenholzer said to his players after a brief pause.
"Don't be too obsessed with defending. Seize the opportunity to score quickly! Griffin, pass the ball a little bit more at a certain time......"
After Chen said for a while, the game started again. The opponent brought on Dwayne and Malcolm for Plumlee and Belineri. The Nets replaced Egyptian Deyus with Griffin.
The head coach of the Hawks has seen some slight changes in the Nets' state on this end.
Malcolm came to the court and hit a three-pointer that made them feel more at ease! 10:5!
Lin took Mozgov's ball and slowly went to the frontcourt, Mozgov just went in and directly received Lin's pass and dunked to score points! 12:5!
It's so comfortable to play at home! Familiar baskets, familiar environments! And the Hawks may be on the road, or maybe they are letting their guard down on the Nets, and they are not in great shape today. They have nothing to worry about, though. If you win the next game, you'll get match point!
There should be no problem against such a team when the time comes.
Kent took the basketball and immediately passed it to Ilyasova outside, who immediately hit a jumper! 12:8!
After this timeout, the Eagles' form on the court has somewhat returned. The players have also been slowing down the pace of the game, passing the ball, shooting very seriously!
After getting Lin's pass, Griffinza scored a jumper and missed the basketball! After the basketball popped up, he went around a little bit, and after receiving the ball again, he immediately dodged Kent's defense, and then used his feet to jump to the outside and hit the three-point board into the basket! 15:8!
The Nets bench exploded right away! At such moments, Chen will immediately look for Atkinson around. In the past, when I was an assistant coach, the two of them would watch the game quietly.
Sometimes when you get excited, two people will high-five and celebrate! At this time, I looked back and saw Welch watching the game intently. And I'm no longer a teaching assistant.
The regular season was better, and the playoffs were really exciting!
Schroder quickly went to the frontcourt, Malcolm quickly went over to receive the ball and made a layup and was fanned out by Mozgov with a big hot pot! Jonathan also ran after Lin picked up the basketball when he saw him!
Kent followed closely behind, and Jonathan took the basketball and passed it directly to Teague on the other side. This made Kent not expect for a while, Teague adjusted and jumped into the net with three points! 18:8!
This kind of performance made many commentators of the media who were live broadcast a little excited! The Nets seem to be playing with each other! Anyway, it's a good start!
If Brooklyn can maintain this advantage in the first quarter and continue, the result will really be difficult to say!
Malcolm held the ball across the halfcourt, Schroder received the ball and used his speed to get to the basket to see that there were not many opportunities, so he immediately passed the ball to Ilyasova on the outside. At this time, he immediately jumped up and hit another three! 18:11!
Such a performance made Budenholzer's eyes shine! Maybe he's a little bit more out of the squad tonight. In tonight's game, many of the Eagles' players have not adapted to the rhythm of the game until now. The Brooklyn side has a very smooth and efficient offense! It felt like a different team in the game.
After Mozgov took the basketball, he immediately doubled Dwayne with his back and scored 2 points into the net! 20:11!
It is not difficult to see that the current Nets team has actually begun to fight! The players are playing hard! If you don't get back a game in this game, there is basically not much hope for the future. After 3:0, there are no successful teams that have succeeded in turning the tables one by one, and there is only one that has succeeded.
Immediately after Schroder's three-point shot Jonathan hit a three-point shot to the frontcourt! 23:11!
33:26! In the last 5 seconds, Kent hit a buzzer-beating three-pointer! This makes the difference between them and the Nets not be 10 points.
"It's pretty much the same as we planned. Welch: Do you think it's advisable to take advantage of the win in the next quarter? I feel like if you add defense now, what do you think of your lineup? ”
"Chen, as the team's defensive drill coach, I agree. But jumping out of my identity, now I feel better than direct fast attack. Personally, as for the position of coach, I would also give a non-recommended opinion."
"If it's just a blind attack, maybe Budenholzer will catch our weakness. I know what to do."
At the start of the second quarter, the Hawks replaced Kent with Belineri. The Nets' Goodwin is on the court. When he appeared on the pitch with the players, he was greeted with heroic cheers!
It made him feel very useful! After Lin passed the ball, he quickly hit the ball to Jonathan under Malcolm's defense, and Griffin took Jonathan's pass and dunked to score points! 35:26!
Schroder went to the frontcourt, and Pele immediately ran to the other side and hit a three-pointer directly after receiving the basketball! 35:29! With Mozgov dunking the ball away, the basketball went into Ilyasova's hands!
During the run, Ilyasova immediately transferred the ball to Schroeder. Dwayne hit a 2-point jumper immediately after receiving Schroder's ball! 35:31!
This kind of offense and efficiency made the Nets immediately vigilant! Chen also took a step forward and looked at the game.
Goodwin took the basketball and quickly passed the ball to Griffin, who missed the shot, Schroder immediately received Dwayne's ball and came to the front court to hit a three-point shot! 35:34!
Chen immediately asked for a timeout when he saw it. From the 9-point difference just now, it's still 1 point away from now! Budenholzer waited for his players to return without expression, and began to set up tasks, and his attitude eased a little.
