Chapter 373: Boston's Last Hope

"15-point victory, the Bucks crushed the whole court and won the first victory in the Eastern Conference finals!"

The first game of the Eastern Conference finals surprised too many experts and fans, who thought that the Bucks might win, but they didn't expect the Bucks to win so easily, almost pressing the Celtics from beginning to end, and for most of the game, the Celtics were behind by nearly 10 points.

It can be said that it was unilaterally beaten by the Bucks.

"I really didn't expect this to be the case, the Celtics have shown their combination in the first two rounds of the series, and their style of play has become fragmented in this game, especially the Big Three, who looked particularly helpless tonight!"

Paul Pearce, the team's leading scorer, averaged 19.8 points per game in the first two rounds of the series, and Ray Allen, the No. 2 scorer who opened up space on the perimeter and gave a fatal blow at key moments, averaged 16.1 points per game.

Combined, these two guys can score at least 35 points every night.

But tonight, Paul Pierce scored just 15 points and Ray Allen only scored 11 points, both of which were a lot less firepower than they had in the first two series.

As the core of the Celtics on the defensive end, the success rate of the first two rounds of the series was as high as 45%, but in this game he was only 29%, and the overall coordination efficiency was almost doubled.

At the same time, his average of 15.1 points and 8.9 rebounds per game in the first two rounds of the series also dropped slightly this evening, with only 12 points and 8 rebounds.

The Big Three didn't play well on the same night, something that was simply not seen in the first two rounds of the series - whenever it came to a critical moment, one of the three veterans could fire.

But in the first game of the East Finals, the three of them were dumb at the same time!

This is the main reason why they lost the game.

"The style of the Bucks is to inherently restrain the Celtics, and the Big Three of the Green Army can't play properly in front of the Bucks at all!"

Courtney Lee, an outside defensive titan in his third year in the league!

Bogut, a frame-protected center who has grown up on the inside!

Plus Yi Jianlian, who has played the best performance of his career so far this season!

The Bucks had these three points just to restrain the Celtics' Big Three.

The suppressive force was very evident in the game, and even more so in the post-match statistics!

Yi Jianlian scored 30 points, 9 rebounds and 10 assists in this game, and his score was exactly half that of Paul Pearce.

Courtney Lee scored 10 points, and while there weren't many points, Ray Allen made just three of his 11 shots in total in the time he faced his defense.

To make Ray Allen, who is known for his calmness and stability, so abnormal, shows Courtney Lee's ability on the defensive end.

Bogut had 16 points and 11 rebounds in this game, and his statistics were better than Garnett's, but of course the two of them were not in pairs, so it didn't make sense to compare.

However, it is worth mentioning that Bogut still has three blocks in this game, two of which are big hats given to Garnett, and one of them even threw Garnett's iron-blooded big hit the hat off, and the covered Garnett stumbled to the ground and almost passively hit the basket post.

"Hahaha, I'll just say it! The strength of the Bucks is obviously stronger than the Celtics, and it can even be said that there is no opponent for them in the entire East, including the Celtics, everyone is surprised that the Celtics unexpectedly entered the Eastern Conference finals, but you all forget that the Bucks are swept all the way, and the strength of the Miami Heat may not be nothing, but the Magic team has been swept, which is very revealing! ”

Barkley was stunned again, because he said before the game that the Celtics would not have any impact on the Bucks, and the process of the game would not be anxious, and as a result, everything was as he expected, the Bucks pressed the Celtics throughout the game, not giving them any momentum to fight back, and choked to death.

"It's only the first game, the Celtics have just finished a high-intensity series, they're just a little tired, and I'm sure they're perfectly fine!"

McHale, however, still thinks the Celtics will win the eventually.

"The Celtics still have the possibility of winning, Rajon Rondo didn't play badly in this game, he got 15 points and 9 assists, his breakthrough and his passing have posed a big threat to the Bucks, if the Celtics can win, it must be Rajon Rondo who played more role"

Local media in Boston also don't think the Celtics have any hope of winning in the Eastern Conference Finals.

The spark of hope is in Rajan Rondo!

The rising point guard star, who is increasingly known as the "Celtics' Big Four", has become the Boston media's opponent who can determine whether the Celtics can beat the Bucks.

As long as he can play better, then Celtic have a chance to win!

"That's not a good idea!" Barkley scoffed at this statement, but it was a pity that no one argued with him, and even if he wanted to argue, he thought about waiting for Celtic to win the second game, and then ridicule it back!

As a great and well-established Green Army fan, this patience is still there.

The second game of the Eastern Conference Final was held at Bradley Arena.

The Milwaukee fans who arrived today did not let their guard down because of the big win in the first game, and they still gave a round of verbal greetings when the Celtics came in early to warm up, which affected the mentality of the Celtics players as much as possible.

The home players' appearance ceremony began with their most enthusiastic cheers to welcome the Bucks players:

"Kill these from Boston!"

"Guys, let's make these Celtic Bichi helpless again!"

"What I want to see is another 15-point win!"

The home crowd was so enthusiastic, and the Bucks didn't let down the cheers, and just like in the first game, they had a lead in the score from the start.

11 to 7!

Although the lead was not as much as in the first game, the entire rhythm of the game was still in the hands of the Bucks.

Today's Rajon Rondo played obviously with a lot of offensive desire, and he had already made three shots in the opening game, two layups and one throw, and all of them went in, and he scored 6 of the Celtics' opening 7 points alone.

That's somewhat uncommon for a traditional point guard who averaged just 14.3 points per game in the regular season this season.

It can be seen that some pre-match reports have had a great impact on the Celtics' "Big Four", who is trying to change the direction of the game through his personal ability!
