Antetokounmpo suddenly turned around and cut in from the right side, Grant immediately went up to make up for it, and Zhang Zifeng also moved his feet to the free throw line.

Ibaka gave the ball to Snell on the outside, Zhang Zifeng immediately rushed back, and Ibaka also made up for the vacancy left by Grant, Snell, who was about to shoot, saw that Zhang Zifeng had returned to defense, he was a little afraid of Zhang Zifeng, and when he hesitated, he lost the best opportunity to shoot.

Unable to break through Zhang Zifeng, Snell passed the ball back to Antetokounmpo again.

Antetokounmpo turned and pulled to the right of the three-point line. Grant followed, and Ibaka stood between Antetokounmpo and Middleton, ready to come over and make up for it.

Seeing that Zhang Zifeng also leaned over here, to form an inside line of the bag, Antetokounmpo could only stop and shoot a jumper.

This position was not the position that Antetokounmpo was used to shooting, and the ball smashed into the basket and bounced out.

In the end, Knoll easily picked up the defensive rebound.

The ball returned to the 76ers' side, and Rondo received the ball and made a fast-break gesture.

Zhang Zifeng ran to the bottom corner after half court and then tried to slip along the baseline to the other side, where he made his way through the crowd and then used Knoll to cover and shake off Snell's followers.

Then it appeared on the other side of the pitch, and Rondo didn't miss such a good opportunity at this time, and he passed the ball straight over.

The Bucks' Merkel saw Zhang Zifeng receiving the ball outside the three-point line and hurriedly pounced.

Originally, the center's footsteps moved relatively slowly, not to mention that Zhang Zifeng shot first.

Merkel was simply incapable of playing the ball and could only watch the opponent score the ball.

Barkley saw it and shouted excitedly, "The defensive intensity in the playoffs can't be compared to the regular season." The playoffs are a time to test a star. Only true superstars can shine in the playoffs! The Bucks actually have a good player configuration, with inside and outside, but they lack a superstar, a superstar who can tear through the opponent's defense and provide consistent scoring points. One thing that the 76ers are better than the Bucks is that they have Zhang Zifeng! ”

Kenny. Smith also said, "Yes, I agree with Charles. After Parker fell, Antetokounmpo did well. But he still needs to grow further, and this trip to the playoffs may be a valuable experience for him! ”

The 76ers strengthened their interior defense and achieved good results.

Antetokounmpo of the Bucks struggled with the 76ers' bag and zone defense.

They had to create chances by running more aggressively.

On the 76ers' side, through Zhang Zifeng's personal ability, the whole team's offense was driven.

The 76ers are completely in control of their game.

After the start of the second quarter, the rest of the 76ers also found their offensive touch, with Grant and Saric each hitting three-pointers to lead the team to start the second quarter with an 11-4 comeback surge that extended the margin to 40-31.

After the Bucks called a timeout, Antetokounmpo dunked, but Zhang Zifeng and Sharic combined for six points to give the 76ers a 13-point lead at 49-35 with 6:35 left before halftime.

Middleton hit a three-pointer, Zhang Zifeng scored four points with free throws, Brogton hit a three-pointer from the left wing, Zhang Zifeng and Ibaka combined for four points to end the second quarter, and the 76ers led by 15 points at 56-41.

The 76ers' Zhang Zifeng scored 18 points in the first half, and Sharic scored 14 points; The Bucks' Antetokounmpo scored 15 points and Brogdon had 10.

The Bucks' offense revived shortly after the start of the third quarter, with Antetokounmpo scoring four straight points, Snell and Brogdon hitting threes each to lead a 12-4 comeback surge, and the Bucks closed the deficit to just seven points at 53-60 with four minutes into the quarter.

Zhang Zifeng made a quick free throw to recover four points, and Brogton hit another three.

Rondo scored five straight points and Zhang hit two free throws to give the 76ers a 72-61 lead with four minutes left in the third quarter.

With 2 minutes left in the third quarter, Zhang Zifeng went to rest.

The Bucks' Dellavedova then scored five points as he led the team to an 11-2 spurt to end the third quarter, with the Bucks trailing by just five points at 72-77.

Zhang Zifeng used a breakthrough layup to kick off the fourth quarter. Then Grant hit a three-pointer from the bottom corner, and they led the team to start the fourth quarter with a 10-1 spurt.

The 76s led by 14 points, 87-73.

Antetokounmpo scored on a breakaway and Middleton hit a jumper to put the Bucks back with four points.

But this is their last remaining light. With four minutes left in the fourth quarter, the Bucks' Antetokounmpo fought too hard in the first half, and now there is a physical problem and a connection error.

Zhang Zifeng controls his physical strength, coupled with a reasonable allocation of playing time, he still has plenty of physical fitness.

There was no way to restrain Zhang Zifeng, and now he can't prevent it. Zhang Zifeng broke through to score, hit a hook hand under the basket, and then hit a three-pointer on the outside, a wave of 7-0 small climax, instantly stretching the score to more than 10 points.

Bucks coach Jason. Kidd was helpless.

If Parker hadn't been injured, perhaps the Bucks wouldn't have had no scoring at the most critical moment right now, and they wouldn't have had fitness issues in the fourth quarter because of overusing Antetokounmpo.

Seeing that there are only 2 minutes and 10 seconds left in the game, the difference has been widened by 18 points, and the main players have physical problems again.

No matter how reluctant you are, Jason. Kidd could only call a timeout and replace Antetokounmpo and other main players, so that he could retain more energy and prepare for the second game better.

The Bucks surrendered early, and Brett. Brown also hurriedly replaced Zhang Zifeng.

The moment the full-time whistle ends. In the end, the 76ers won 102-87.

For the Philadelphia 76ers, Zhang Zifeng had 31 points, eight rebounds and seven assists, Serge Ibaka had 11 points and 14 rebounds, and Rondo had a triple-double of 10 points, 15 assists and 11 rebounds. Grant scored 12 points.

Antetokounmpo had an eye-catching performance with 28 points and eight rebounds, Brogdon also had 16 points and six rebounds, and Chris Middleton had 10 points. But it's a pity that apart from these three guys, no one in the Bucks has scored in double figures.

"It's a very suspenseful game, and the Bucks don't have any chance of coming back and winning in a normal game. Jason. Kidd needs to think carefully about how to restrain Zifeng, otherwise they will still lose the next game. The 76ers got off to a good start in the first round, and hopefully they can continue to play like this. Barkley summed up.

Zhang Zifeng, as the captain, hugged several players of the Bucks team, waved to the fans, and walked to the players' tunnel.

"Great job, come on, come on! Zhang, you are the best! ”

“GO! GO! GO!76ers Advance! Advance! Towards the championship! ”

"Zhang Zifeng, thank you for bringing us joy. We can sleep tonight with the joy of victory! ”

……

Looking at the shouts of the fans on both sides of the players' tunnel, Zhang Zifeng smiled and stretched out his hand to clap their hands in celebration.

In addition to the 76ers' home win, the Cavaliers, one of the favorites to win the championship, also narrowly beat the Hawks on their home court.

Zach Randolph is old, and Gasol Jr. is alone. The Spurs cleanly finished the Grizzlies 111-82.

In the other game of the West, the Jazz and Rockets, although the Jazz center Gobert left the game with an injury after only 13 seconds of play, the veteran Johnson made up for his absence well, cutting 21 points, plus Hayward had 19 points and 10 rebounds, and they led the team to regain the lead at the end of the third quarter.

Paul hit a break with 13.1 seconds left to tie the game, and Johnson hit a buzzer-beating shot to give the Jazz a narrow 97-95 win over the Los Angeles Clippers in Game 1 of the first-round series.

On April 19, the 76ers continued to play their second game against the Bucks at home.
