Coach Milwaukee Bucks Doc Rivers made a correction in game 3, starting Gary Trent Jr., who more than provided what he was asked. Maybe he will be able to adapt a little and play Jericho Sims for more minutes based on the statement of Damian Lillard.
Simms played 15 minutes in the third win match, scoring four points and grabbing eight records.
He also played in the first two matches, registering 10 and 8 minutes in the game 1 and 2, respectively.
Although the statistics are not filled with him, his influence is something that people would not see on the statistics sheet. This is Exactly what Lillard saw in it in the game 3.
“Of course, in the playoffs, you need to find various matches to try to change the series as the game passes,” said Lillard after the game.
“Today he was there, he was able to change, protected the rim, got us additional things, and this is the energy and activity we need from our bench, and especially when they introduce a second unit. Where they usually dominate in the second unit, we can be so great in paint and have this kind of presence in paint, I think, it is huge for our team.”
Damian Lillard, Giannis Antetokunmpo Preach Defense
Defense was one of the main problems for Bucks in this series. Pacers reached an average of 50 percent on the pitch in the first two games.
Lillard said that they should win this department to be able to have a chance. He did it himself, accelerating the defense among his offensive fight.
His colleague from the Superstar team, Antetokunmpo, says the same and he He hopes that the team will remember it Come to the next game.
“We are a team that we copy and paste,” said Anetokunmpo.
“We try to repeat it. When you see something that works, we just want to do it over and over again.
“In this way we gain our confidence. I hope that we will also understand that from the third quarter and fourth quarter, which changed the game, there was our defense.”
The Bucks-Pacers series will resume on Thursday, because Bucks hopes that even a series, otherwise they will fall 1-3.
Only 13 teams returned from deficit 1-3 in seven matches in the history of NBA. This is only 4.5 percent of the 275 -the series saw this record.
Interestingly, Doc Rivers is at the wrong end in one of these returns.
