Celtic won the game breathtakingly, and scored 133 points in extra time at home. Even though the scores of Double Tanhua seemed excellent, if you look at the game carefully, you will find that the performance of Double Tanhua did not satisfy the fans. In extra time, Tatum saved the team by winning six points at the last minute.
As for why the team is in trouble, we should start from Tatum himself. First, the outside dribble hit the leg and three points were blocked, then Hollady made an unexpected mistake in passing the ball, and then he failed to score in the air. Tatum, as the core leader of the team, is immature in dealing with the ball and unstable in attack, which is almost always criticized by everyone. If it hadn't been for Brown's three point draw, I'm afraid Tatum would have lost. However, the two starting guards of the Green Army performed stably and excellently, especially Zhu Hollady.
At the end of today's game, a basketball blogger tweeted: "That kid Zhu (Hollady) has the first level of defense." Lakers forward LeBron James replied: "That kid is the first in everything!" According to the best defensive lineup results announced today, Hollady was selected into the second best defensive lineup. James said that Hollady is the first in all things. Many people disagree with this statement. After all, Hollady has been selected as an All Star twice except for winning the championship and the best defense for a while. He has not won the MVP, scoring king, assists king, and DPOY. You said he was the first in everything? I'm afraid it's hard to convince people. But I'm afraid that we don't know how good Hollady is.
Juhoredi is definitely one of the few existing defenders who has integrated attack and defense. He has comprehensive skills and can do all kinds of dirty work.
This excellent but unpopular guard has been in the league for 15 seasons, and the season that people remember his name may be traced back to the Pelican in the 18th season.
In the playoffs of the 18th season, when people thought that Lillard and McLum were going to defeat the Pelican, Johollady stood up and defended Lillard. Then the pioneers lost.
Who would have thought that Zhu Hollady's defense had locked the two guns of the pioneers. Juhoredi not only made great achievements on the defensive side, but also was able to hit and shoot steadily on the offensive side, and put the ball firmly into the hands of Anthony Davis. Together, they worked hard to defeat the Portland Trailblazers. In addition to the slight instability of three points, Zhu Holledi did not see any shortcomings in his body. He averaged 21.2 points and 7.7 assists in the playoffs. Zhu Holledi is a good all-star player.
When Shumei left and Ingram came to the pelican, the pelican officially entered reconstruction. Hollady's role became less and less. In the 20-21 season, the Bucks seized the opportunity.
As the first round of the playoffs was eliminated by the Heat, the Bucks absolutely made up in the guard line. They knew that they had a strong forward combination of Middleton and Brother Alphabet, but Bradshaw in the guard line did not have a stable shooting threat, so they sent Bradshaw to the Pelican and introduced Johoradi to the Milwaukee Bucks.
At first, people didn't think Hollady was the third biggest player in the Bucks on an equal footing with Brother Alphabet and Middleton, but Hollady's performance immediately conquered the hearts of fans. He is just underestimated. He is the third largest stag.
In the regular season, Hollady averaged 17.7 points, 4.5 rebounds, 6.1 assists, and 50% shooting percentage. The data is not amazing, but some things are not reflected by the data.
With Hollady, the Bucks' outside defense has obviously improved to a higher level. At the same time, the organization and deployment of the offensive end no longer require the two frontlines of Alphabet Brother and Middleton to compete at the top of the arc. Hollady will catch the ball at the arc top and be responsible for organization and deployment. Middleton can be relieved to play low back singles. The number of times that the letter brother catches the dunk in the air is also increasing, and the Bucks' attack begins to diversify. At the same time, Hollady himself will also rely on strong physical advantage to complete the breakthrough layup. In the playoffs, Hollady averaged 1.7 steals per game. Many people compared him with Chris Paul and thought that they had been in the best defensive lineup, and they were both good defenders.
But in the finals between the Bucks and the Sun, Paul's defense against Hollady was obviously inadequate. Compared with Paul, Hollady is younger and stronger. Under Hollady's high intensity confrontation, Paul and Booker both made mistakes. The two key steals of G4 and G5 Hollady in the finals established the victory of the game. In the final game of the finals with the Sun, Hollerdyson cut off Booker, and the auxiliary letter Ge Kong hit the smash into 2+1 to completely kill the game. When the Sun's star Devon Booker faced Hollerdyson's defense, he made only 2 of 11 shots. Hollady's suffocating defense in this round of series is the key factor for the Bucks to win the championship.
The champion guard is one of the three giants of the Bucks. Zhu Hollady's comprehensiveness makes him a powerful puzzle for the champion. When he left Milwaukee, Hollady was reluctant to part with him. He had already loved Milwaukee. Even though it was freezing cold, for Hollady, Milwaukee was a city that could melt people. He loved everything there. It was the place where he won the first championship in his career. The fans there liked him very much.
Before the trade to Celtic, Hollady said emotionally: "I am willing to die for the Bucks, I am from the heart, I do not want to play for other teams.". The result was that a few days later, his agent told him: "You have been traded to Celtic".
Milwaukee is cold, it has no love, and does not know the weight of the word "long love". Hollady was reluctantly traded. After coming to Celtic, Hollady overcame his sadness and disappointment. He knew that he was a professional player and his job was to help the team. NBA was only a commercial business after all.
In the regular season, Hollady averaged 12.5 points and 5.4 rebounds in 69 games for the Green Army. 4.8 Assist. This is slightly different from the data he has played in the Bucks and Pelicans for several seasons. People think that with the growth of age, his ability on the court has begun to decline.
But in fact, this has a lot to do with the Green Army's lineup. The Celtics' attack mainly relies on double probe to provide firepower. In addition, Derek White, who is two years earlier than Hollady, has a good offensive shot in the Green Army and is trusted by coach Mazula. At the same time, Boerzingis is good at shooting and has a certain tactical position in the interior. Therefore, Hollady has a low-key and modest character, and naturally has less shooting power. Horati's professional integrity is really impressive. It's hard to say you don't like any team with such a player.
After the victory over the Pacers, Jay Brown praised teammate Zhu Hollady in an interview with reporters. "Zhu Hollady is so excellent, very special, salute him. It is he who stood up to defend the opponent, he is the reason why we won this game, he is really special." Jay Brown said. "It is he who is defending Halliburton. He has undertaken this task. He is chasing each other everywhere, which is the special feature of Zhu Hollady," continued Jay Brown. Hollady is indeed so. Even though he sacrificed his right to attack in the Green Army, he did not complain at all.
You should know that in the NBA, a commercial league, the data played by players is the main reason why players can get big contracts. Every player hopes to produce good data in order to seek more contracts and traffic. But Hollady doesn't seem to care. He knows that there are many players who can score on the offensive side of the team. He just needs to do a good job in defense. When his teammates need him to score, he can also score.
Celtic have many excellent players, their goal is to win the championship, Hollady is very clear that this is the purpose of Celtic trade him. He doesn't want to let down every team that needs him, just like the Milwaukee Bucks. This is Holliday. His excellent and mediocre data sheet can't reflect it.
In the G1 that just ended, Hollady played for 48 minutes, making 10 of 16 shots, making 4 of 8 3-pointers and getting 28 points. In addition, he had 7 rebounds, 8 assists and 3 steals. Compared with the instability of Double Explorers and White, who is obsessed with shooting three-point shots, Hollady's stability and concentration have become the key to the Green Army. Hollady's defense is still strong. Under Hollady's defense, young Halliburton even had a hard time dribbling the ball. The ball hit his feet and went out of bounds.
"He is the best defender in the NBA, which has existed for a long time. Sometimes I try to move to my right side and his left side, but he confronts very well, and sometimes I can hardly control my steps. It must be very frustrating, but people make mistakes, and I will learn from them and play better in G2." said Halliburton.
At this moment, I don't know whether the Milwaukee fans who are far away from Milwaukee will also miss this champion defender who was reluctant to leave and wanted to stay in Milwaukee for a long time.
