"I think it's psychologically, I think too much."

Antetokounmpo, who was guarded by Zhou Si and made 0 of 7 shots. He only scored 3 points on free throws and made 5 turnovers. He said somewhat helplessly in an interview with reporters after the game.

"I know that sometimes I can perform poorly, especially against a star of Zhou's caliber.

But, I hope that’s not now, it’s really not a good time.”

Antetokounmpo replied with some frustration.

Originally, his strong performance in the regular season made him a little elated, thinking that he could see Zhou Si's back.

You didn't expect that the rookie who was ignored by everyone back then could now take away some of your light!

Antetokounmpo really wanted to yell these words from his heart to Zhou Si.

He is getting stronger quickly, but Zhou Si's speed of getting stronger doesn't seem to be weaker than him at all!

Even on a stage filled with stars, he is still the most dazzling one!

As soon as you appear on the stage, you can steal everyone's attention!

Just standing there makes many people feel like they have lost!

Antetokounmpo secretly tightened his fists in the interview room!

One day, I will take away all the glory!

…

Compared to Antetokounmpo, Jabari Parker’s leader-level speeches are more favored by reporters.

“We need to do a better job on both ends of the floor, continue to move the ball and stuff, so we know what to do.

To be honest, I'm not scared right now because we know what we need to do to win.

Zhou is a great player and the Nets are a great team, but that doesn't mean we will sit still.

We are a young team, we are still learning and full of passion!

Believe me, we will take care of the next game when we return home."

Neither humble nor arrogant, the style of a general!

Jabari Parker's speech after the game attracted countless fans!

The Bucks management, who were still considering whether to give Jabari Parker a maximum salary contract at the end of the season, reached a consensus almost instantly:

The box office depends on Antetokounmpo, but winning still depends on Parker!

As for Towns...at present, we can only hope that he can be a little tougher in the future...

…

After winning the game, the Nets habitually rewarded the players for giving up a day of rest and announced that they would take off to Milwaukee not far away in two days.

Then the night after winning the game, Howard invited the whole team to go out for a get-together.

There was a tacit understanding among everyone that there was no unpleasantness from the previous few days, it was just as if nothing had happened.

But everyone in the team knew very well that this big monster was completely subdued by Zhou Si.

…

On the evening of the 3rd, everyone from the Nets team gathered in the video room of the Barclays Center Arena after taking a day off.

Tonight, there is only one game between the Cavaliers and the Raptors.

Everyone in the Nets is here to watch their next opponent's game!

"Zhou, is it possible for the Raptors to win today?"

McCollum asked Zhous before the game.

Before Zhou Si could answer, Kuzma, who was not far away, answered lively:

"According to incomplete statistics, the Raptors' record against James' team is 1 win and 28 losses..."

Zhou Si also spread his hands and said casually,

"Nothing is impossible, it's just a bit difficult..."

Trash brother...

I don’t know what kind of performance I can perform tonight...

Although Valanciunas had a huge advantage against the Cavaliers inside, it was DeRozan and Lowry who decided the final outcome of the game.

Amid the chatter of Nets players, the second round of the Eastern Conference semifinals between the Cavaliers and Raptors kicked off.

As soon as the game started, Lowry was not polite and scored 5 points in a row to get the Raptors off to a good start.

But the Cavaliers looked very calm!

Under James' guidance, the Cavaliers slowly caught up with the score.

In the first quarter, the Raptors were the same as Zhou Si analyzed before the game. The Garbage Brothers and Valanciunas were still the main attackers, while the Cavaliers were sorted by James and Ade frequently scored.

The situation of the Cavaliers pushing the Raptors did not appear, and the two sides played very anxiously. With DeRozan's breakthrough dunk, at the end of the first quarter, the Raptors gained a weak advantage of 3 points, 29 to 26.

For Raptors fans, they are already very satisfied with this start.

On the Nets side, Raptors small forward Anunoby was discussed during the break.

Under his defense, James didn't perform much in the first quarter. For a young player, this performance is really great!

In the second quarter, the Raptors bench scored frequently to extend the lead to 8 points.

On the Cavaliers side, James succeeded in breaking through? Love also hit a three-pointer? The two sides once again fell into a tug-of-war!

At halftime, the Raptors still led by a slim margin of 64 to 61.

The best performer for the Raptors is Lowry.

Lowry played 16 minutes in the first half, making 6 of 7 (including 3 of 4 three-pointers) and 4 of 5 free throws. He scored 19 points, tied for the highest of both teams, plus 2 rebounds and 2 assists. Among them, the number of three-pointers made was the same as that of the Cavaliers.

The team (3 of 12) was tied.

The best performer on the Cavaliers side was Ade.

He made 7 of 12 shots, including 1 of 3 three-pointers, and 4 of 5 free throws. He scored 19 points and 7 rebounds, which were tied for the highest of both teams.

DeRozan and James, the two leaders of the team, did not kill everyone? Instead, Lowry and Ade performed exceptionally well!

This makes everyone in the Nets feel very interesting!

Change sides and fight again? The Cavaliers suddenly showed strength in the third quarter!

JR scored 3+1, and the Cavaliers instantly took the lead.

Then James and Korver hit consecutive shots, and the Cavaliers launched a 9-0 offensive.

Jenko joins forces and is invincible!

Then, the game completely entered James' rhythm, and Zhan Sanfeng came online!

Mid-range jump shot, breakthrough layup, breakthrough point shot...

In the third quarter, James contributed 15 points, 6 assists and 4 rebounds, helping the Cavaliers lead the Raptors by 13 points in a single quarter.

At the end of the three quarters, the Raptors were 10 points behind 87 to 97.

At this time, many Raptors fans in front of the TV already felt bad. This was a wave of being taken away!

Cavaliers fans are very happy!

Sure enough, James is still the same guy that the Raptors can't get through, and he's still the Raptors' fate!

In the final quarter of the game, James first assisted Korver to hit a three-pointer, and then hit two consecutive jump shots. The Cavaliers launched a 7-0 offensive, and the point difference had widened to 17 points.

On the Internet, Cavaliers fans have gone crazy. In the second half, James really played like a cheater, making whatever shots he wanted!

After the timeout, Valanciunas' hook finally stopped the Raptors from bleeding, but James hit another drift jumper at the buzzer!

DeRozan scored 5 points in a row, Valanciunas succeeded at the basket, and the Raptors narrowed the point difference to 12 points.

For the Cavaliers, James first assisted Korver to hit a three-pointer, and then succeeded in two consecutive drift jumpers, further widening the point difference...

Many Raptors fans in front of the TV want to smash the TV!

Go to hell James!

Go to hell with the Dragon Slayer King!

Then, as Ade fouled and made two free throws, JR made a three-pointer from the bottom corner, the Cavaliers led by 22 points, and the game ended early.

After the timeout, both sides sent in substitutes. In the end, the Cavaliers defeated the Raptors 129-110 and defended their home court, taking a 2-0 lead.
Chapter completed!
