Ray Allen's performance in the first quarter had the fans at the Bradley Center cheering collectively.
At that moment, their mood was just like the Team China fans after the first six minutes against the United States team in the 2000 Olympics.
In a game originally thought to have a huge disparity in strength, their supported team unexpectedly took a temporary lead, which naturally excited them.
Such a lead gives you a psychological hint: "Anything can happen in competitive sports, maybe we really can create something tonight!"
This feeling is the most unforgettable in the world of competitive sports. Who dared to say they never thought Team China could actually beat Spain during the 2008 Olympics? Even if you knew there was a gap in strength between the two sides.
Just half a year ago, the Milwaukee Bucks were swept out by the Hawks with a 3-0 score. And this summer, the Bucks lineup didn't undergo radical changes.
Even the bench roster barely changed.
