"What's going on?" the Raptors head coach asked with a straight face, only to have several players just bow their heads, making him even more upset, "I ask you what's going on?

They only scored 5 points in a few minutes, which really doesn't make sense.

However, at this time, several people have already understood in their hearts that the problem lies in their mentality.

The last loss to the 76ers team was a big blow for them, but the other party lacked the strongest Qin Hao, and they still lost.

In this case, today's 76ers Big Three gathered, and the Raptors players lost psychologically and were at a disadvantage.

So these minutes can't defend the 76ers on the defensive end, and they always play iron on the offensive end, trailing by as many as 9 points in a few minutes.

But they can't tell the coach that they are timid, right?

Only silence can be chosen.

After scolding, the head coach was also tired and waved his hand: "Substitution." "

After this substitution, in addition to Lowry and DeRozan, the other three have been replaced, but fortunately, the head coach is not messed up and has not replaced the core players.

After all, the first quarter is not yet halfway through, and if you replace Lowry and DeRozan, you can't fight with the other Big Three.

After the timeout, Lowry and DeRozan adjusted their mentality and improved significantly on both ends of the offensive and defensive ends compared to the previous minutes.

However, it is still not an opponent of the 76ers.

On the field.

Qin Hao took the ball, a tentative step, and then broke through to the left, DeRozan subconsciously retreated, but at this time, Qin Hao also retreated, did not advance and retreated, returned to outside the three-point line, directly a three-point shot.

With a soft click, the ball went in.

"Hey..." DeRozan could only sigh helplessly, before Qin Hao almost broke through, suddenly pulled a cold step three points, people could not be prevented.

The key is that it was a breakthrough before, and suddenly changed to shooting three points, but Qin Hao had no sense of violation, and it was still so accurate.

DeRozan cursed secretly, came to the front court to take the ball, but did not shoot directly, but played a small cooperation with Lowry, passed the ball to Lowry, pulled it away by himself, took the defender away, Lowry took the opportunity to break through and hit a layup.

Despite the improved performance of DeRozan and Lowry, the Raptors were still on the downside, and the margin was quickly stretched to more than ten points.

Halfway through the first quarter, the Raptors called another timeout.

At this time, Coach Luke also called a timeout and replaced Sessions with Curry Jr.

"Me?" little Curry was stunned for a moment, a little surprised.

I thought that after Xiaoka came back, he would return to his previous role, and his playing time would be reduced accordingly, but he didn't expect that the first person to be replaced was himself, who was still in front of Luffy and Sbets.

Coach Luke grimaced: "How, is there a problem?"

Little Curry quickly shook his head, and saw Qin Hao looking at him and gave him an encouraging look, his heart moved, and he nodded at Qin Hao gratefully.

After this substitution, Qin Hao returned to the No. 1 position, and his personal focus was no longer just to score, but also to take care of organizational tasks.

This is familiar with Qin Hao, there is no difficulty, but Xiao Curry is obviously a little nervous, Qin Hao fed him two balls, but both shots were lost.

"Don't be nervous, take it easy. Qin Hao came to Little Curry and comforted: "Your task is one, shoot three-pointers, focus on this one, don't think about anything else."

"Hmm. Little Curry nodded heavily, silently telling himself in his heart that he could not live up to Qin Hao's expectations.

After another while, Coach Luke changed, replacing Qin Hao, Xiao Ka, and Nene, leaving only Butler on the top, with a few substitutes to play.

Now that the Big Three are together, it is finally possible to relive the good times when at least one giant is on the field.

On the pitch.

Lewy, Curry Jr., Butler, Spets, Smith, this lineup is not weak, Lewis and Spates themselves can play starters, Curry Jr. is also half a half, and Smith is weaker, but with Butler, he is an All-Star.

It can be said that in some teams, this lineup is already a good starter.

Compared with the 76ers roster, the Raptors are more than a notch worse, although Lowry is still on the court, but he is a main player, where has he played the 76ers.

For a while, the point difference continued to widen....

"The gap is huge.

"Yes, the difference has widened to 15 points." "

People sighed.

When the first quarter ended at 32:17, the 76ers led by as many as 15 points.

......

In the blink of an eye, the game was in the fourth quarter.

At this time, the fourth quarter was just four minutes long, and the fans in the audience had silently sentenced the Raptors to death.

Of course, this is not a subjective assumption, but because the Raptors are still trailing by as many as 18 points at this time.

With only 8 minutes left in the fourth quarter and trailing by 18 points, does the Raptors have any hope of turning around?

Even before the two sides can replace the main players, the game has almost lost its suspense, and the Raptors are about to lose again.

However, the Raptors did not give up on this, but quickly changed to the main lineup and tried to make a last-ditch effort.

However, it is of no use.

With such a huge point difference, the 76ers still have the Big Three to escort, the Raptors just chased a few points, and the Big Three immediately stood up to cut points to help the team stabilize the situation.

For a while, I only saw that the game time was getting less and less, but the score did not shrink much, and it remained at more than ten points.

Finally

, the game was over, the score was fixed at 122:106, and the 76ers defeated the Raptors by 16 points, rewriting the series to 2-0.

A group of Raptors players hurried away, none of them politely saying goodbye to the 76ers because they weren't in that mood.

Losing two games to the 76ers in a row, their confidence suffered a huge blow, even a little frustrated, and the opponent was too strong, giving them the impression that no matter how hard they tried, no matter how good they played, they could not win against each other.

What's more, it's a series.

In seven series, even if the Raptors fight one game, can they fight four games and eliminate the 76ers?"

"Gee, how to say that the Raptors' record is also the first in the East, and the regular season is not bad, but I didn't expect that once it came to the playoffs, the gap with the 76ers was so big."

"It's not surprising, don't forget that the 76ers fell to fourth place in the East not because of their lack of strength, but because Leonard was injured. What's more, for a team like the 76ers, the regular season and the playoffs are completely different things, but people have won two championships in a row, to put it mildly, the playoffs are the field that people are good at..."
