Chinese fans are no strangers to the Bucks.

The team only joined the NBA in 1968, but it can definitely be called the youngest "nova" in the NBA. In 1971, led by two All-Star players, "Sky Hook" Jabbar and "Big O" Oscar Robertson, the Bucks swept the Baltimore Bullets out in the finals with a clean 4:0 4-0 and easily won the championship.

In 1976, Jabbar was exchanged for the Lakers. With the large number of young players being used, the Bucks began to decline. It was not until the 1990s that the "big dogs" Robinson, Ray Allen and Sam Kassel gathered together, and the three of them raised the banner of the "Three Musketeers" of the Bucks, and they restored their true colors to the strong team.

But after the three Musketeers broke up, the Bucks became an absolute bottom team. In recent seasons, Michael Reed was the core, but his record was not ideal and he had no popularity. It was not until the 2007 draft that the team selected Yi Jianlian with the sixth pick in the first round, which became a hot topic for Chinese fans.

Last year, the team selected Brandon Jennings and partnered with inside pillar Andrew Bogut to bring the team back to the playoffs.

But this season, the team's star Michael Reed was plagued by injuries, which cast a shadow on their future.

Losed to the Bobcats in the preseason.

Jiang Jun and his teammates took the team bus. After more than three hours of running around, they finally arrived in Milwaukee. There are not many high-rise buildings in the center of this city, most of which are old-fashioned banks. There are also very few pedestrians on the road, making people feel that they are not angry at all.

Milwaukee is a typical industrial city on the banks of the Great Lakes. It was once glorious, but now it has declined.

"No wonder Yi Jianlian and his agent Feigen were unwilling to go to the Bucks back then. Such places are indeed not attractive." Jiang Jun said sincerely. Although Feigen was not in the way of dealing with him, Jiang Jun still agreed with his opinion.

Because in addition to being underdeveloped, the industrialized background of this city also makes the environment here average, Jiang Jun felt that the spiritual energy here was far worse than Charlotte.

In downtown Milwaukee, where Fourth Street and State Street cross the Bucks' home court, Bradley Center.

The game was about to go to the evening, and the rigorous old Brown still decided to go to the stadium for simple training in advance and get familiar with the venue.

So after getting settled at the hotel, at 4 o'clock in the afternoon, coach Brown led the players to the Bradley Center Arena for training.

The boss Jordan and Charlotte's several reporters stayed in the hotel and rushed over tonight.

The team bus stopped at the entrance of the Bradley Arena. Milwaukee staff came up to guide him. Jiang Jun followed everyone out of the car and walked towards the Arena.

From the outside, the Bradley Center is very grand, with a high roof and several maple trees foils. Walking into the Bradley Center, you will be looking up and you will see a hall with a net height of 25 meters. The Bucks' flag slowly hangs down along the marble pillars, looking very gorgeous.

But when he walked into the locker room, Jiang Jun was disappointed. After entering the locker room, a faint stench came to his nose. A bathroom actually occupied the ventilation space of the locker room.

"Damn, this is the worst visiting team locker room in NBA." Carol muttered, covering his nose. He is a guy with some cleanliness and has high requirements for the environment.

Jackson frowned and said, "Yes, if anyone wants to go to the bathroom, everyone can hear the sound of flushing the toilet and smell strange. I've had enough."

The Bobcats and the Bucks are opponents in the same zone, and they have to face each season four times, which means they have to come to Milwaukee at least twice a season. In these two seasons, Jackson is indeed reluctant to come here.

For a long time, the owner of the Bucks, Cole, has hoped to renovate the Bradley Center and increase the number of private rooms to increase revenue. However, the Milwaukee city government has been arguing with Cole on the cost of renovating the gym, and has been delayed for a long time. Therefore, the visiting teams who come to Milwaukee to play must grit their teeth and endure the visiting team locker room of the Bradley Center.

Brown, the old man seemed to be afraid of the locker room, and he stood on the court and didn't go to the locker room at all.

Considering the game more than two hours later, Brown did not ask the players to engage in strong confrontations, but focused on practicing tactical cooperation and shooting training.

The game officially started at 6:30 pm. After all, these two teams belong to the club in the league, so this game is relatively low-key and there is no TV station to broadcast the country live.

The Bobcats are still in the old lineup, Jiang Jun, Jackson, Bardinger, Thomas and Diogu.

The Bucks are Jennings playing the main guard, Salmons playing the attacking guard, Argentinian Delfino playing the small forward, Guden playing the power forward, and Bogut playing the center.

Compared with the preseason between the two teams last time, the Bucks adjusted Mageti to the substitute lineup, but this is still a lineup with strong attack power.

The referee is also one of the famous NBA whistles, named Steve Javi.

At the beginning of the game, Diogu grabbed the ball again. Although he was a little shorter, it seemed that every time he competed for the ball, Diogu could skip Bogut.

Jiang Jun took Diogu's pass, glanced at his teammates, and then jogged forward slowly.

Coach Skeles was deeply afraid of Jiang Jun.

Although Jiang Jun is a rookie, he has almost become an unsolvable problem when he played against the Bucks last preseason.

Moreover, the Bobcats won two consecutive games, which also shows the terribleness of Jiang Jun, the organizational defender.

So Skeles also arranged the tactics of how to limit Jiang Jun. To be specific, it was to cut off Jiang Jun's contact with his teammates.

So as soon as Jiang Jun dribbled the ball, Jennings and Salmons came up to press the ball.

Jiang Jun had already experienced the Bucks' tactics last time, and now he has come up with a way to deal with them.

That is to quickly pass it to the teammates in the open space and then give a blow to the opponent.

Jiang Jun attracted two double teams, and one teammate must be in the open position. Jiang Jun’s task is to quickly hand the ball to him.

The teammate in this open space was Jackson. He felt angry and amused when he saw Salmons give up on himself to attack Jiang Jun.

Dare to underestimate me? Let you know how amazing!

After receiving the pass from Jiang Jun, he made a slight adjustment. Jackson faced Delfino, who was making up for defense, and made a decisive move from outside the three-point line and the ball entered.

3 to 0. It seems Captain Jack is in good condition.

The Bobcats served, and Gooden took the ball and passed it to Jennings. Jennings turned slightly, his thin figure was like a piece of ribs, and he was moving downwards quickly.

When he arrived at the frontcourt, center Bogut came out to pick-and-roll, Jennings went over Jiang Jun, broke through, and found that Jiang Jun had come around and immediately passed the ball to Delphino.

The Argentinian saw the opportunity and made a quick move from outside the three-point line, and the ball also scored 3-3.

Jiang Jun dribbled the ball to the frontcourt, and Salmons quickly came up to cooperate with Jennings to double-team Jiang Jun. Thomas, in the inside, quickly moved forward to help Jiang Jun pick-and-roll. Jiang Jun turned a little and broke into the inside.

Gu came up to defend, but was also shook by Jiang Jun.

Big guys are very likely to be broken through.

Bogut, who was inside, had no choice but to abandon Diogu and go forward to defend.

Jiang Jun made a shooting move, and Bogut quickly jumped up to block the block. Unexpectedly, Jiang Jun handed it over and passed the ball to Diogu.

The big black man held the ball in both hands and suddenly dunked into the basket. 5 to 3.

In the next round, Jennings used Bogut's pick-and-roll to seize the opportunity to shoot a three-pointer, and the ball entered.

6-5, the Bucks overtook again, and both sides hit a high shooting percentage.

Jiang Jun is still slow and committed to assisting. He has found that most of his teammates in his team are mediocre, have no singles ability, and rarely have players who create shooting opportunities by themselves. Therefore, he must play a chain role and give full play to the offensive enthusiasm of each teammate. Only in this way can the team be combined into a whole.

As for the double-team between Jennings and Salmons, Jiang Jun also slowly figured out the solution.

One is to use teammates to pick-and-roll cover to quickly break through to the inside line, and another way is to break through the encirclement before the opponent sieges.

Of course, this kind of opportunity is fleeting, but for Jiang Jun, it is indeed as insightful as seeing the fire.

From a jump step between the two sides, Jiang Jun rushed out from the thorn, and Jennings and Salmons surrounded him in the air.

Delfino hurriedly came up to prevent Jiang Jun from breaking through, but this was exactly the result Jiang Jun wanted. He rushed in, further attracted Delfino's attention, and then threw the ball to Badinger, who was ambushing the outside.

Swish! Badinger made a move with his hands and a three-pointer.

Soon, Jiang Jun scored three assists.

Next, both sides' offensive efficiency was a bit low. After playing for more than 7 minutes, the score was 12-11, and the Bobcats were slightly ahead.

At this time, the Bucks replaced Jennings and Bogut, Earl Boykins and Il Yasuova.

Boykins is only 1.65 meters tall, and is the shortest player in the NBA now. Jiang Jun was surprised to find that he had no good idea for this little man.

Old Brown quickly replaced Jiang Jun and Diogu, and replaced Augustine and Yao Ming.

Boykins was seen wearing butterfly and actually revitalizing the team. At the end of the first quarter, the Bucks led by 3 points 20-17.

Jiang Jun was a little amused and crying. He had always been used to fighting against tall Europeans and Americans. When he saw such a short player, he was helpless. Maybe he was not adapting.

Surprisingly, at the beginning of the second quarter, Augustine began to show off, as if he had a good deal of dealing with Boykins. The Bobcats took the initiative again.

When Brown saw the situation on the field, he exchanged eyes with Jiang Jun. Jiang Jun shook his head and waved his hand, indicating that he didn't need to play. Brown asked Augustine to play for a while.

Jiang Jun did not play in the second quarter, but the Bobcats were not tied. At the end of the half, both sides tied at 48.
