2-4 out! Here is the next gram! The most unsuccessful trade in the off-season?

This season, the first group of matches below the gram appeared.

At the end of today's game, the Pacers beat the Bucks by 22 points in a 120-98 victory, and advanced to the eastern semi-finals in a 4-2 victory in the series. This is the first time that the Pacers have entered the eastern semi-finals after 10 years, or won the next round of series in the playoffs again. The last time they entered the eastern semi-final, the team's lineup was still: head coach Vogel+George+West+Hibbert+Hill+Stephenson. That year, the Pacers fought all the way to the eastern semi-final and lost to the Heat.

So can we repeat the achievements of 10 years ago this year? Or go further? In fact, their current lineup is somewhat similar to that of 2014. Last year, the Heat beat the Bucks and finally reached the finals. The moment the final whistle sounded, the Bucks officially ended their 2023-24 season. Once again, he was beaten down, and didn't even wait for Brother Alphabet to return to play a playoff game. Their number one star sat on the bench all the time, watching the end of the game and the end of the season. Last season, the Bucks were blackmailed by the Heat in the first round, which can be called a shame. During the offseason, they learned from their mistakes and decided to be indestructible. They sent Holliday away and replaced him with Lillard, who was more aggressive. So this season, the Bucks have not been blacklisted, because in the regular season, this team failed to reach the first place in the East.

If it is not the first in the east, it will not be blackmailed. But this time, they were blackmailed, and they were also blackmailed. Before the game, the Bucks were 2-3 down, so today Lillard chose to make a forced comeback with injury. He played for 35 minutes, made 7 of 16 shots and 4 of 12 of 3 points, getting the highest 28 points, 2 rebounds and 4 assists. It can't be said that Lillard played very well, but he did his best. With Achilles tendon injury, he can't be more demanding. The Bucks even scored more than 20 points today. But even so, it still failed to defeat the walkers. Because there is a gap between the two teams except for the first round, the gap between the substitutes is even greater. With garbage time, the Bucks rotated 8 people and got 10 points in total; The walkers' bench was rotated by 7 people and got 50 points in total.

Last year's failed season let the Bucks send Holliday away. The first round of this year was also defeated, so who will the Bucks send away? This season, Lillard can get 24.3 points and 7 assists per game, with a shooting percentage of 42%, a three-point shooting percentage of 35%, and a free throw shooting percentage of 92%, making him an All Star. In this round of series, Lillard averaged 31.3 points, 3.3 rebounds and 5 assists per game. In the history of the Bucks, Lillard's performance was also at the top level. However, such performance, whether in the regular season or the playoffs, did not help the Bucks become stronger. Admittedly, the Bucks have been affected by injuries this year, but looking at their season, it is almost certain that the off-season trade is a failure. Lillard and Brother Alphabet can't see any chemical reaction until now

So, can we say that the Bucks' off-season trade is the most unsuccessful? Actually, not really. After all, there is a Bill in the Suns
