Chapter 349: Traveling Light

"Sure enough! 72-10 isn't easy to break, but it's remarkable that the Bucks can tie that record! ”

"Speaking of which, the unexpected loss to the Denver Nuggets had too much impact, which made the Bucks directly lose a tough battle in the later schedule!"

"Why, I now think it's very difficult for the Bucks to tie 72-10!"

If the outside fans were just not optimistic about the Bucks, then after the Bucks lost to the Lakers, the outside world was downcast, and some fans even thought that the Milwaukee Bucks might not even be able to match their 72-10 record.

***

"The Bucks lost the game in a way that didn't belong to them, in the 71 games that the Bucks have played this season, they actually maintained a winning record in the last three minutes of the game with a difference of no more than 5 points, but in this game against the Lakers, they have obviously dragged the game into the rhythm they are good at in the way they are good at, but there are rare consecutive turnovers, which shows that the mentality of the Bucks players has changed a lot, because of the discussion of outside fans, is also because of the pressure to break the best record in history, so that most of the players of the Bucks can no longer stay calm at critical moments! That's the most troublesome thing! ”

"If the Bucks want to break the record of the best record in history, forget it, put that goal aside and talk about it from a different angle, if the Bucks want to go far in the playoffs this year, then they have to throw away that pressure and focus on the game, so that the Bucks team who has been able to keep calm in key moments for most of the season can come back!"

Max Pierce expressed a different opinion in the midst of a downturn, in his opinion, the Bucks lost the game in a way that did not belong to them, and they had a chance to beat the Lakers again, but a mistake at a critical moment buried everything!

Let's not talk about whether what Max Pierce said is reasonable, just look at what he thinks about in a downbeat atmosphere is not how to advocate or how to quibble, but to help the Bucks find the cause of the loss and find a solution to the loss, it can be seen that Max Pierce is really thinking about this team.

"The main responsibility for the loss to the Lakers is on me, because I didn't lead this team well at the last minute, we missed out on a win that we should have, which is really sad, but it's all gone, we had a special meeting in the locker room, I and my teammates talked freely, everyone said what they feared, we all tried not to think about those things, including breaking the all-time best record, we put it aside, what we're thinking about now, It's just that if you win the last 9 games one by one, it's as simple as that! ”

Yi Jianlian once again talked about the reason for the loss of this game after losing the game with the Lakers, and took the initiative to take the responsibility on him, but in fact, he got 45 points, 7 rebounds and 9 assists in this game, in addition to 2 steals and 1 block, and the number of turnovers was only 2, and it was all at other times of the game, he really did his best, and he didn't need to carry the pot at all, but he still took all the responsibility on his shoulders.

In Yi Jianlian's view, if the team didn't win, then the fault was all on him.

In addition, he also took the initiative to reveal that the Bucks players had an all-hands meeting after the loss, in which they talked about their concerns and problems, and after talking about these burdens and problems, the Bucks will once again travel lightly and return to the original rhythm of the game.

"We can hear from Yi's tone that he is still full of confidence for the Bucks in the last nine games of the season!"

After Milwaukee fans saw this report, they immediately went to Yi Jianlian's Twitter to leave a message:

"Yi, I believe you, you say yes, then you can definitely do it!"

"No matter what the fans and experts over there discuss, I only believe what you say, since you think there is still hope, then I believe that it must be possible!"

"Come on, Yi, lead the Bucks to break the impossible again!"

The glory that Yi Jianlian brought to Milwaukee in those three years has caused all the city's fans to fall into a feverish trust in him.

In the eyes of these Milwaukee diehards, Yi Jianlian's words are God's golden words.

***

Yi Jianlian really didn't say nonsense, the Bucks team once again returned to the rhythm of winning after losing to the Lakers, winning three consecutive games in a row, improving the record to 68-8.

In these three consecutive wins, Yi Jianlian continued to maintain abundant firepower, averaging 39.4 points, 10 rebounds and 9.8 assists per game.

With this score, Yi Jianlian also continued to maintain the first position in the scoring list.

However, Kevin Durant is still chasing behind with an average of 0.3 points per game.

It is also worth mentioning that in this three-game winning streak, the Bucks outscored their opponents by an average of 13.4 points per game, showing once again the dominance they showed at the beginning of the season.

But this dominance has not changed the opinion of outside fans about them, or that sentence, now the Bucks have just won the game they should have won, and the difficulties that should have been crossed have not yet been crossed!

The Milwaukee media didn't get much coverage of the three-game winning streak either, and they wanted to put all the credit behind the Bucks' next two straight wins.

Away to the Bulls on April 4 and home to the Suns on April 5.

The Bucks have a second roadblock — their final back-to-back of the season.

As long as these two consecutive wins can be achieved, the Milwaukee Bucks' chances of breaking the best record in NBA history will return to the most optimistic situation.

The Bulls played reasonably well in the first half of the season, but with Derrick Rose's hip injury, their record began to falter and they now sit in ninth place in the East.

With such strength, it is impossible to beat the Bucks even if they are defending their home court.

In the first game of the back-to-back, the Bucks didn't have much of a problem and easily won 107-95.

Just from the perspective of back-to-back, the Bulls spent a full three quarters with the Bucks today, and were only taken away by the Bucks in the fourth quarter, which caused a certain degree of physical loss to the Bucks, and also made it difficult for the Bucks to return home to face the energetic Suns in advance.
