This time the Lakers played four consecutive home games. After winning three straight games, the next opponent was the New York Knicks.

The New York team's current record is only 29 wins and 41 losses, but placed in the east, this record is expected to enter the playoffs. It's just that the current New York is up and down, but there is some unintentional love.

Melon Anthony has become the "wave king" this season, averaging 21.3 shots per game, but the shooting rate is also quite satisfactory, especially the three-point shooting rate, barely reaching 40%, averaging 27.4 points per game.

What is the concept of 21.3 shots per game? For example, Bryant averaged 22.8 shots per game in the 2006-2007 season, averaging 31.6 points per game. And this season, Harden, a player who likes to hold the ball, only averaged 16.5 shots per game. Durant is averaging 32 points per game this season, while his average field goal attempts are 20.8. Both of them are regarded as the "ball tyrants" of their respective teams, but the number of shots is not as good as Anthony.

Anthony's helper is not a force.

Stoudemire's data is much worse than the rookie season; Bargnani only reimbursed after playing half a season; Filton continues to be fat; JR-Smith is still clinging to his own data. Rookie Hardaway Jr. as the No. 24 rookie in his draft year was a surprise for the Knicks, but everyone knows that Hardaway Jr.'s upper limit must not reach the height of his father.

Now the Knicks, the lineup does not look weak, Anthony's data is also very good, but just do not win, or the Knicks suddenly become unable to win.

The same thing happened in this game. The scene was very lively. The Knicks scored in double figures. Anthony scored 33 points. Then the Knicks lost more than 30 points in the total score.

The Lakers, with four consecutive victories, went to Milwaukee, Wisconsin, to challenge the Bucks away. The Bucks have a 13-58 record, the bottom of the Eastern Conference and the bottom of the league, worse than the Philadelphia 76ers.

Unexpectedly, however, after the game entered the second quarter, the Lakers have been lagging behind.

The current Bucks, OJ Mayo and Ilya Sova, two starters have been injured, the core of the team is Brandon Knight, Knight also has good athleticism, speed and agility Very outstanding, the ability to end the offense is also very strong, the defense also has a certain level. But as the core of the team, Knight is not enough. Strictly speaking, Knight is the kind of player who can't make a difference.

In the face of Zhang Guan's defense, Knight is basically in a state of dumb fire. When Knight is dumb, the Bucks are basically dumb. The game seems to start to become suspicious.

But at this time, a big player came out on the Bucks bench. He is a rookie this year, a Greek, and has a long pass name: Giannis-Antetokounmpo, because the name is too long , Even the narrator can't remember, so he simply called him "letter".

This man is the "letter brother" Adetokumbo.

Adetokounmpo came off the bench as he scored 6 of 9 shots in the first half, plus 6 of 6 free throws, and scored 18 points. He also had 5 rebounds, 3 assists, 1 steal and 4 blocks. The data is not only comprehensive but also perfect.

"Where did the Bucks come from, such a guy who can shoot suddenly, pass, block, and have such a tall body, it's okay to play at center, but it's a defender's play!" Marshall sitting on the bench Said.

"You mean ‘letter', he is a Greek. This year’s 15th pick, participated in the Rookie Challenge and also participated in the Skills Challenge.” Ryan Kelly said next to him. As a rookie this year, Renn Kelly still knows Adetokounmpo quite well.

"Trick Challenge? This guy looks like a seven-footer. How do you participate in the Skill Challenge?" Marshall asked in surprise.

"Less than seven feet,'Letter' is as tall as I am, 6 feet 11 inches. We used to play in the rookie training camp. This guy has the height of a center, the body of a forward, and the skills of a defender. He is on the court. , Can play five positions!" Ren Kelly sighed.

...

The scores of the two teams are still rising alternately, but the Lakers are always five or six points behind, that is, they can't catch up with the Bucks. This situation has been held until the last two minutes of the game.

The Lakers are really not very comfortable with defending Adetokounmpo.

The current letter brother is known as Durant's copy, because his body data is almost a weakened version of Durant, so when the letter brother was drafted, the best template given was Durant. However, in fact, the letter brother and Durant play completely different. The two are similar on the surface, but they are still very different in nature.

Durant is good at playing without the ball, the main scoring method comes from the long-range shot, less than 20% of shots in the penalty area. The letter brother needs to hold the ball, and he is mainly attacking the basket. More than half of his shots come from near the penalty area. The mid-range shots only accounted for 30%, and the shot distance is only half of Durant. He His shots are indeed not as good as Durant's. Strictly compared, the offense of Alphabet Brother is more like Wei Shao when he first entered the NBA.

Therefore, it is definitely useless to use the set that defends Durant to defend the letter brother.

In the entire NBA, players like the second letter brother could not be found. The Lakers' defense was once more passive. Until the fourth quarter, the Lakers players gradually found a way to deal with the letter brother.

After all, Brother Alphabet is just a rookie. When it first appears, it will make the defender unprepared, but slowly adapts while playing, and the experienced players will know how to defend. For example, the current Lakers, they replaced Jordan Hill to play defensive letter brother, and achieved good results.

Jordan Hill has played in the NBA for five years anyway. Even if he didn’t meet people’s expectations, he has some experience. Although his defense is not good, this kind of black and hard type Players, it is barely competent to deal with a rookie.

Brother Alphabet did not score three consecutive shots, and the instability of the rookie was exposed at this time. The Lakers tied the score with the trend and the game entered the last two minutes.

The Bucks probably rarely experience this kind of fight until the final moment. In most games, the Bucks have fallen behind in the fourth quarter, and the game will enter garbage time. This kind of battle to the last two minutes is very rare for the Bucks. Faced with this situation, the Bucks players suddenly seemed not to play. Not only did they miss consecutive shots, they also made a mistake.

In the end, the Lakers won five points with 113 to 108.

This is a more thrilling victory for the Lakers. If it wasn't for the Bucks' sudden death in the last two minutes, maybe the Lakers would really lose. And all this is because of the superb performance of the alphabet brother. The alphabet brother also scored a career high of 32 points in this game, as well as 9 rebounds and 7 assists, which is close to the triple-double data.

...

Although the game was won, Zhang Guan was not happy.

"Although Brother Alphabet has a high ceiling, he is just a rookie. Such a rookie has burst our entire team!" Zhang Guan shook his head and silently looked at his teammates.

"We are still not strong enough on the front line. Although Wesley Johnson is not bad, the limit is the same. It seems that we still need a forward player, at least a defensive forward line." Zhang Guan thought of this and decided to discuss with D'Antoni.
