Milwaukee Bucks were not good this year, but Giannis Antetokunmpo & Co. He took advantage of the duel with the injured, male-free Mavericks on Saturday evening to leave the American Airlines Center from 132-117 Road W.
In the Bucks season they are now 13-16 outside (20-9 on the FISERV Forum). More importantly, victory pushes them half a match next to Pacers for 4th place in Eastern Conference Department.
On the way to the sixth win of Milwaukee in seven matches, Giannis stuck to a 32-minute restriction again, but his fourth time in a row reached this sign. If his progress persists, he should be in a low time.
Even under the limitation, he was his ordinary productive himself, scoring 29 points, 9 rebounds and 9 assists against Dallas-the highest in the team. He also made 11 out of 13 free throws.
After the match, he allowed reporters to Doc Rivers to demand that the crime was not best he had throughout the season.
The modern layer of Milwaukee Bucks maximizes the duo Giannis Antetokunmpo-Damian Lillard
Bucks has been 5-1 since the break of All-Star and 4-1 in games with the participation of both Giannis and Damian Lillard. At that time, Rivers changed the way he copes with rotations, without stunning his two stars to minimize the periods in which none is on the pitch.
Although this means more things that Kyle Kuzma or Kevin Porter JR facilitates, it also means that the team’s star spends even more time together. DOC really likes the way a double game works between Dame and Giannis-how does I feel about it?
“Listen, we have to play with each other,” said Giannis. “He pressed us, forcing us to play. At the end of the day we must understand that we are threats. People are worried that Dame will leave from passing and shoots to three. People are worried that I will go down from above. People are worried about me when I set the screen and throw myself hard on the edge. “
While Giannis worked from the calf load, which knocked him out through the break, and although Lillard was not the most capable lately, the crime simply looks alive and moves like a well -oiled machine.
On Saturday in Dallas, Lillard tied his post with 28 points, except for 6 boards and 6 ten -centuries.
Star chemistry multiplies possibilities for team members
When you have two stars, such as Giannis and Dame, of course, the game plan turns around them. But you play with each other to maximize the most cruel two -headed league monster, it also releases the rest of the crime.
Regardless of whether it is an simple LOB or an open corner of the third, “we can take so many actions from a double game”, continued Antokunmpo. “And now I feel that we accept it.”
With snipers such as Taurean Prince (45.7 3p%), Gary Trent and AJ Green (both 42.3%), opposite defense cannot leave them open without paying the price.
Kuzma, an excellent slasher and talented driving and kick, provides skills and energy in which this team was missing, as well as further challenges of defenders to protect all areas of the court without excessive withdrawal inside or outside.
Of course, during the crisis, Bucks still have the two best NBA shooters on which they resist. And Lillard and Antetokunmpo know when to put the band on the shoulders. “We know the last five minutes, he told me:” Hey, come me, it’s me and you now. ” Or he tells me: “Go to post.” “I need double, I’m here.” We talk to each other and know what time it is when it is time, “said Giannis.
Combining 56.3 points, 16.7 rebounds and 13.1 assists per match, these two give Milwaukee luxury several schedules. Aggressive laying of their production, not stunning it, turned out to be a successful strategy. As long as Bucks still play, as they were, it seems that there is no reason to move away from it.
