Chapter 378: Good start

For the Bucks, the Charlotte Hornets are a very suitable opponent, because this team is not strong.
Last season, the Hornets ranked 10th in the East. Although they only lost the playoffs with a slight gap in the competition of the three teams, they still can not escape the definition of weak team, because the competitiveness of the East is much smaller than the West.
Although the Wizards who broke the regular season victory record and the Super Four Cavaliers in the East last season are more difficult to mix up than before, they are still better than the strong West, and in that case, the Hornets still cannot enter. The playoffs are enough to prove the weakness of this team.
Coincidentally, the Bucks are also very weak.
Although Wang Xiao has hoarded part of the victory value for the Bucks players, but it only took less than half a month of training. The potential of the players and the cooperation between them are far from reaching the standard.
Judging from the current situation, the Bucks with obvious shortcomings and defects meet the experienced strong teams in the league, and they are basically unable to escape the fate of being slaughtered.
It's different for the Hornets.
In the face of the strong I only promise, in the face of the weak team I hit hard.
The brother of letters frequently hit the inside to create killing, just like a super star performance.
The Hornets center Al Jefferson has followed the head coach's arrangement, defending the inside and trying to defend the letter brother, but Jefferson is not good at defending, especially in the face of the strange height of the letter brother's anti-human height.
Accidentally, he even ate two fouls and sat down obediently to watch the excitement.
In the first quarter, the letter brother made 5 of 7 shots, 5 of 6 free throws, got 15 points, 3 rebounds and 1 assist, played a burst!
"Oh my god, is this really a rookie who averaged less than 10 points per game last season?" Buckley was dumbfounded. "Others don't say, I thought he was a strong candidate for regular-season mvp! Is there really magical power? Why would every player who plays under his hand be reborn in a short time?"
"Last season, Adetokounmpo basically appeared in the inside position, not much time to touch the ball." Kenny Smith analyzed: "And with his weight, when facing strong inside players It’s hard to get the upper hand."
"But when Wang Xiao arrived, he immediately changed his style of play and liberated it from the inside to the outside. The situation reversed in an instant. This kid is too high. The ordinary defender is difficult to defend, but the inside players cannot follow. On his speed, when he is attacking with the ball outside, one-on-one defense has no effect at all."
"This also explains Wang Xiao's vision, after all, not any coach has the courage to make a 2.11-meter big man try to play with a defender."
The other is in the air. In the first two years, Adetokounmpo played unsatisfactorily in the Bucks. In the first season of his career, he averaged 6.8 points and 4.4 rebounds. Increased playing time can only average 12.7 points and 6.7 rebounds.
It wasn't until the third season when the Bucks coach changed to Jason Kidd that the situation changed.
As the top point guard in the history of the league, Kidd keenly discovered the potential of Adetokounmpo in point guard, and began to let Adetokounmpo try the play of the point guard. As a result, in the third season, Adeto Kunbo's average data per game increased to 16.9 points, 7.7 assists and 4.3 assists.
auzw.com If the third season is still the time for Adetokounmpo to grow and practice, then the fourth season, that is, the 16-17 season, Adetokounmpo There was an outbreak.
The versatile stats of 22.9 points per game, 8.8 rebounds and 5.4 assists seem to be a James II, and his unsolvable breakthrough has made the league's frontline headaches, and the Greek monster has risen completely.
...
The current alphabet brother is certainly not as scary as the Greek monster in the future. Both the physical and technical aspects are very lacking, but when the advantages are brought into play, they are also against the third-rate team such as the Hornets. Enough to play all-star performance.
In the second quarter, Adetokounmpo ended off, the Bucks' tactics began around Oladipo, but the effect was not satisfactory.
Oladipo has shown a good talent in this period. Another is that he has been able to contribute 17.9 points per game this season, but his shooting percentage is only about 43.6%.
The Hornets' shooting guard is Lance Stephenson, a defensive defender.
People's influence on Stephenson may be mostly fixed in the 14-year playoff heat and the Pacers battle. This cargo blows towards James' ears. I think this cargo seems to be not very good for the brain.
However, one thing to say, Stephenson’s physical fitness is very strong in the defender. It can be seen from the fact that he can even mark James, and his defensive attitude is very positive. It is completely a brown sugar-style defense. Even if his defensive skills are not the top in the league, he can still make many players feel a headache.
Oladipo has a headache at this time, he is a player who is good at breaking through, but he can hardly get rid of the opponent in the face of Stephenson.
If two years later, the skillful Oladipo can beat the opponent 100%, but not yet.
As a result, the Bucks' offensive fell into stagnation, and the score was quickly drawn. If Middleton did not play occasionally, hit three consecutive long shots and midrange shots, maybe the scores of the two teams will be in the first half of the second quarter. Complete the overtake.
The game continued, as Adetokounmpo returned to the field, the situation was gradually stabilized, but after returning, Adetokounmpo's feel fell a bit, the offensive efficiency was not as efficient as the first game, and the Hornets Also gradually began to limit his breakthrough space, once he has the tendency to hold the ball singles breakthrough, there will be players quickly forming a tendency to encircle him.
At this time, Adetokounmpo's physical fitness is not enough to force a strong encirclement under the entrapment of several people. The timing of the ball to the point guard teammates is not particularly good.
This also made the Bucks have been unable to open the score gap. The two teams fought very fiercely. From the second quarter to the fourth quarter, they did not rely on Oladipo until there were about 2 minutes left until the end of the game. A neurosurge's three-pointer widened the score, and then used the defensive stability advantage to win the game thrillingly.
At 88:82, the Bucks scored a good start at home and beat the Hornets to win the first win of the new season.
In the entire game, the letter brother Adto Kunbo scored a game-high 22 points, 7 of 13 shots, 8 of 11 free throws, and 7 rebounds and 3 assists.
In addition to Adetokounmpo, the Bucks also have three people scoring double figures, respectively, 12 points Oladipo, 15 points Middleton and 11 points off the bench oj Mayo.
Although the game was won, and Adetokounmpo's performance surprised many people, there were more doubts about the Bucks and Wang Xiao.
Because the Bucks won this game too hard.
