The five players in the third team are the Thunder's Russell Westbrook, the Wizards' Paul George, the Clippers' Blake Griffin, the Spurs' Tim Duncan and the Cavaliers' Dwight Howard.
Of the fifteen people in these three lineups, some are well-received, while others are omitted]?
When the players can’t even get in for three games, arguments and complaints naturally arise.
But in any case, the selection of the NBA's best lineup is still relatively objective and fair. The coaches and media reporters participating in the selection follow the performance of the players throughout the season and the evaluation of the team's contribution.
There is no doubt that the Wizards are still the biggest winners of the season. Curry, Leonard, and George are among the best lineups. Leonard George is also selected as the best defensive lineup. Leonard is Defensive for a while, George is defensive for three.
...
Without being able to win any awards, the Bucks players have shown limited disappointment. After all, in their view, the Bucks have been quite successful this season. 'S results entered the playoffs, and can also reach the second round?
This dissatisfaction quickly turned into motivation and wanted to vent to the opponents in the second round of the playoffs.
Are you not the strongest team in the league? Don’t you have three players selected for the best team? Okay, let’s say that you have defeated it, didn’t you hit all the people who participated in the selection?
There is still the advantage of being young. New born calves are not afraid of tigers. A few players who have only entered the league for a year or two dare to challenge my invincible division who has created three consecutive championships. This kind of spirit is commendable.
For this spirit, Wang Xiao gave great praise, and for the technical characteristics of the Wizards players, he customized a set of targeted offensive and defensive tactics for his players.
But seriously, even Wang Xiao doesn't think there will be any suspense in this series. The difference in strength between the two teams is too large. As long as the letter brother, Oladipo and others can learn from this series of confrontations To some things, he is enough.
...
The second round of the playoffs was in early May.
At the home of the Wizards, the MCI Center Arena in Washington, the first round of the playoffs began.
Before the start of the game, fans in Washington dedicated their applause to Wang Xiao. Although Wang Xiao has now become the head coach of the hostile team, they still thank Wang Xiao for his contribution to the Wizards.
At the same time, Curry, George, Leonard and others also took the initiative to greet Wang Xiao, even the Wizards coach Steve Kerr was no exception.
Although the Bucks and the Wizards have played four times in the regular season, the scenes still make the Bucks players face to face.
"Coach, this is the playoffs, I won't keep my hand!"
Curry smiled at Wang Xiao and said.
Wang Xiao glanced at Curry without a good air: "It's as if you were merciless in the regular season."
auzw.com The Bucks and Wizards' four regular season games ended in a four-game loss to the Bucks. The Wizards suppressed the Bucks in almost every game without any suspense.
"But the coach I really admire you in my heart, such a team can let you lead into the second round of the playoffs." George sighed heartily.
Seriously, when I saw the lineup at the beginning of the regular season for the Bucks, even George, who was trained by Wang Xiao, couldn't help but wonder whether the coach was inflated and would actually coach that team.
But after a regular season, the Bucks unexpectedly ranked fourth in the East. He was completely convinced. The coach is worthy of being a coach. It is too powerful.
"Paul, don't underestimate my team, don't underestimate that they are still very young, but by next year, they will grow into your biggest opponent." Wang Xiao smiled slightly.
Aside, Kor Wenyan, who also came over to join in the bustle, shrank slightly.
George didn't take this to heart, but Cole was different. He could hear Wang Xiao's strong self-confidence in his voice, which was absolutely serious.
For all these years, Wang Xiao has been able to do all kinds of rhetoric, but without exception.
Now he personally said that the Bucks will be the Wizards' biggest opponent in a year, and naturally it will not be groundless!
After a brief greeting, the game is about to start.
The Wizards have sent five starters from point guard Curry, shooting guard Thompson, small forward George, power forward Leonard and center Gobert.
The Bucks' starting lineup, as always, is the lineup of point guard Oladipo, shooting guard Korver, small forward Middleton, power forward Alphabet, and center Jokic.
The two sides jumped the ball in the center line. Gobert won the competition with a better wingspan and bounce ability. The game officially started.
...
As Wang Xiao expected, from the beginning of the game, the Wizards firmly grasped the initiative.
With Curry as the core, the Wizards' set of small ball tactics has tended to be perfect. Four of the five positions on the field can be long shots, which also doubles the Bucks' defensive pressure.
More deadly is that the point guard, shooting guard, small forward lost three positions at the same time, Oladipo was difficult to defend against Curry, and although Korver's defensive attitude is very positive, Thompson has been the main player in the Wizards. It is difficult for the two to have a direct match. As for George against Middleton, it is basically a level of abuse.
Even the position of the power forward, the letter brother was also suppressed by Leonard.
This made it difficult for the Bucks players to work hard, but it was difficult to bite the score. In the first quarter, they lost 7 points. Then the difference in the second quarter expanded to 12 points. In the third quarter, all points collapsed. Expand to more than 20 points.
At this point, the game has lost its suspense.
When Wang Xiao replaced the letter brother and others, they all seemed very unwilling.
113:87, this is the final score of the two sides, the Bucks lost 26 points in the opener.
Wang Xiao did not say much about the defeat of this game. At the press conference after the game, he just praised the players’ hard work on the field and expressed their satisfaction with the players’ performance. Outstanding performance, but the opponent's performance is even better.
