Live broadcast on December 4th, NBA regular season, Wasp home court 96-105 lost to the stag. After the game, Hornets coach Clifford was interviewed.
For this defeat, Clifford thought: “When you score 7 points less than your opponent in the match, it will be difficult for you to win because it will be 21 points less. In the second quarter, we had a lot of quick shots on the offensive side that were not in the open space. This was not the case before. We did not hit the opponent’s inner line enough in the first half. This is the point I put forward during the half-time break. How much has everyone improved in the third section.”
“The Bucks are excellent. There is a reason why they rank first in defense (efficiency). Some of their main players did not play in this field, but most of the players on the court were members who won the championship in 2021. they were all important rotating players. The stag’s defense is very disciplined. They know what they are doing and it is difficult to compete with it. Not only are we opponents tonight, but we also have many players missing. Every game is like this, so this is not a bad defeat. If these guys can play, they can beat many teams.”
The stag three points 32 in 12, Wasp three points 24 cast only 5. Players in the Hornets, such as Ramello-Bauer, Hayward, Kodi-Martin, and Dennis Smith, were absent from the game due to injuries.
