Some reporters also asked in an interview whether Wang Xiao had the confidence to eliminate the Wizards and advance to the Eastern Finals.

In the face of such a question, Wang Xiao did not give a positive answer, and this was also regarded by the media as a manifestation of his weakness.

"It seems that against the dynasty team that was once built, the legendary coach is not sure of winning, I wonder if he will regret it, after all, he left a team that is extremely competitive and has the strength to continue to win championships."

Some sunspots who didn't like Wang Xiao cheered even more, as if Wang Xiao was finished.

"Hahahaha, this is stupid, right? Let you pretend to be a cow! Let the team that once did it, and deserved it! ”

"Just relying on a few strong stars of the Wizards team to win three championships, I don't know why, and I actually tried to leave the Wizards' big thick legs, only to be beaten by the Wizards' thighs when I turn around, which is really embarrassing."

"It will be difficult for Wang Xiao to win the NBA championship in the future, after all, not every time he has shit luck to select a powerful star, leaving the Wizards is the biggest failure of his entire coaching career!"

There are always clowns who will jump out at such inopportune times to find a sense of existence, but such clowns are only a minority, and the vast majority of people are rational and have their own analytical ability.

Although Wang Xiao's Bucks seem to be powerless in the face of the Wizards, how many teams in the entire league can play back and forth against the Wizards?

To put it bluntly, the team he has built has absolute dominance in the league, and it is by no means an ordinary team that can compete with it, as evidenced by last season's 73-win record in the regular season and all wins in the playoffs.

If the Wizards are aside, the Bucks have definitely been successful this season, with an excellent record in the regular season and an elimination of the old powerhouse Atlanta Hawks in the playoffs.

Not to mention, this is the first season of the young Bucks, and in the years to come, the Bucks will go from strength to strength as these promising players grow further.

……

On May 5, the second game of the second round was still the home of the Washington Wizards.

In this game, Antetokounmpo suddenly broke out, dominating the interior of the Wizards, and frantically cut a quasi-triple-double of 27 points, 16 rebounds and 7 assists throughout the game, and even suppressed Leonard, who was opposite him, but the game was still the last laugh of the Wizards.

Brother Alphabet once experienced the experience that James and Durant have experienced, the kind of helplessness that even if you are omnipotent on the court, you still can't help the team win.

After returning to Milwaukee, the situation did not improve, and in the next third game, the Bucks fought hard at their home court, but still lost the crucial third game, allowing the Wizards to get the match point.

By the time the overall score reached 0:3, the series had lost its suspense, after all, there had never been a situation in the entire history of the league that had been able to pull back four games in a row when they were down 0:3.

On May 10, in the fourth game of the series, the Bucks, who were already hanging on the edge of the cliff with most of their bodies, staged an extremely exciting game on their home court.

Brother Alphabet, Oladipo, Jokic, Middleton and others all played the best performance of their careers, cooperated with each other tacitly, and the feeling was also very hot, while the Wizards' outside shooters on the side of the hand dropped to the freezing point, from Curry to Thompson George's long-range shots were all inaccurate, and the Bucks struggled to pull back a game at home, making the score 3:1.

However, the Bucks fans didn't rejoice for long, and the Wizards, who returned to their home court, simply cut melons and vegetables to set the total score at 4:1.

At this point, the Milwaukee Bucks' playoff journey ended in the second round.

The Wizards advance to the Eastern Conference Finals and await the winner of the other two teams in the East.

The other group of games in the East is the Cleveland Cavaliers vs. the Brooklyn Nets, and the situation is basically getting clearer at this time.

Jeremy Lin is very good, both offensive and defensive, and he also has a strong ability to control the field and connect teammates.

But against the Cavaliers of the Big Four, it still seems difficult to stand alone.

At present, the score of the two sides is 3:1, and the Cavaliers have the match point in hand, and soon the score will also be changed to 4:1.

In this regard, Jeremy Lin was also helpless, he scored 28 points, 11 rebounds and 13 assists in the last game, and he could not lead the team to victory.

With a few years of training in the league, Jeremy Lin's technique and body have reached the peak of his condition, and the potential of the growth template card has been tapped, and he has reached the peak where he can grow.

Jeremy Lin at this stage has skills similar to Kidd's, and he also has his own excellent ability to break through with the ball, which is better and more versatile than Kidd's scoring ability at his peak.

But even so, Lin's weaknesses have been exposed, as a top superstar, his passing ability is comparable to only a few people in the entire league, but when it comes to scoring, Lin still lacks the explosiveness that a top superstar in the league should have.

This is a problem for most traditional point guards, and so is Jeremy Lin, who inherited Kidd's growth template card.

Kidd's career-high scoring season was just 18.7 points per game, and his career scoring average was only 12.6 points per game.

In contrast, Jeremy Lin's scoring is much higher, and after a few seasons in the league, Jeremy Lin's career average points per game can reach 19.4, which is almost enough to reach the threshold of 20+ per game.

The reason for such a high score is mainly due to Jeremy Lin's own ability.

Kidd's growth template card aside, Jeremy Lin has a good scoring ability in his own right, and the man who caused a storm in New York in another world is not for nothing.

It's just that Jeremy Lin's own technical characteristics are more extreme, like Rose, he is easily injured in quick breaks, and once he loses his explosiveness due to injury, the threat of breakthroughs will drop significantly.

Since Jeremy Lin became famous, he has been frequently injured, and his performance has not been as good as year after year.

But Jeremy Lin who used Kidd's growth template card doesn't have to worry about this problem, Kidd's strong physique makes it difficult for Jeremy Lin to get hurt, and because he has enough strength, Jeremy Lin doesn't need to be particularly fast to shake off his opponent when he breaks through, and many times he can use his strength to squeeze into the interior to score.

It can be said that Jeremy Lin now perfectly combines himself and Kidd's technical characteristics to become more perfect.

However, even so, it is not enough, neither Kidd nor Jeremy Lin are far from excellent scorers, which also makes the Nets have little resistance against the Cavaliers.

When Howard, who is still at the end of his prime, is guarding the basket, and James is eyeing the wings and ready to help defend at any time, with Jeremy Lin's ability, it is really difficult to score in front of this group of old hooligans, and it becomes a matter of course to lose the game.

In this way, the two teams in the Eastern Conference Finals are determined, and like the previous two years, they are still a one-man show between the Wizards and the Cavaliers.

Although it has been like this for several years, the audience still never gets tired of watching, especially this year, in the absence of Wang Xiao on the Wizards, whether James can grasp the rare opportunity to cross this mountain to win the first championship of his career has become the focus of fans' attention.
