Chapter 464: Spear and shield!

According to the ESPN commentator, this game between the Lakers and the Jazz is like a contest between spears and shields.
The Lakers are attacking wildly, the Jazz are trying their best to defend, and the two sides keep bumping and colliding.
After Xu Xuan arrived on the frontcourt, he met George Hill's defense. The first goal was to find a three-pointer. Xu Xuan beckoned, and Yang Shaoxia on the right sideline brought Hood over to help Xu Xuan pick and roll.
Xu Xuan used Yang Shaoxia to block Hill and moved to the right. Yang Shaoxia immediately moved to the left, and Lu Wei on the left sideline immediately cut in.
When opening up with Yang Shaoxia, Xu Xuan grabbed the ball with his left hand and pushed it towards the left. Yang Shaoxia also made a catching movement while moving, and Hill and Hood immediately rushed towards Yang Shaoxia.
Yang Shaoxia returned to the waves, they still did not dare to let Yang Shaoxia finish the shot easily.
However, Xu Xuan did not pass on it! The big hand grabbed the ball to death, and the extended left hand retracted. In fact, this is a matter between lightning and fire. From the pick and roll to Xu Xuan retracting to stop the foot and take the shot, it is a matter of 1 second. , Xu Xuan grabbed this one second, and shot a three-pointer at a 60-degree angle on the right...
Xu Xuan, who had made such a plan for a long time, had a good rhythm and made a three-pointer with a big gap!
Hill and Hood were helpless facing Xu Xuan's fake fax vote. This guy is simply a bug! Such a big ball can only have such a good ball feel, the key is that the right-handed left hand can still practice such a good ball feel.
Especially Hill, he remembers that Xu Xuan used his right hand for most of his shots and rarely left his shots. He didn't expect that the first time he met this season, he showed him something different.
It's young people after all, the speed of progress is too fast.
18 to 18 tied!
Quinn Schneider imagined, how simple it is!
The Jazz attacked.
Slow speed, old-fashioned pick-and-rolls, but the Lakers with three guards really couldn't prevent the Jazz from outside shots. Hood made a three-pointer at a 45-degree angle on the left, almost empty. Opportunity.
Because when Yang Shaoxia pounced back, Hood had already finished his shot.
Huh!
It's a pity that the goal was not scored, and it was tied 18 to 18. The ball returned to the Lakers again.
The Lakers played a pick-and-roll between Xu Xuan and Yi Jianlian this time. Head coach Frank also knew that there were many Chinese fans watching the game, so he also deliberately arranged some tactics for Yi Jianlian.
It’s a pity that the Jazz’s power forward Dior came from the Spurs. He is experienced in pick-and-roll prevention. His movement speed can keep up. After Xu Xuan and Yi Jian’s pick-and-roll, Yi Jian pulls out of the three-point line and prepares to shoot. , By this time Dior had already jumped up.
Yi Jianlian's shot was not fast. He didn't have the confidence to shoot against Dior, so after looking around for a while, he returned the ball to Xu Xuan.
This is a very bad habit. Even if he wants to pass the ball, Yi Jianlian shouldn't directly return it to Xu Xuan like this, and his looking around will make it appear that he is very poor in reading the game.
This is the shortcoming of UAE, and Xu Xuan also raised this question with him, but it is difficult to make a change one step at a time.
Therefore, Xu Xuan took the initiative to pass it back to him again, making a three-pointer and not making it.
The rebound was protected by Gobert.
The Jazz has not replaced players since the beginning of the game.
The Jazz attacked, and the referee saw George Hill, who had passed halftime slowly, and almost didn't blow his whistle.
One second later, the other party is breaking the law, but it is stuck at this point in time, which is damnable.
Hill played on his own, and after a move, he made a mid-range shot. If he missed, Yi Jian even grabbed the rebound and was a fast break.
You are slow, you are slow, I will run anyway!
Xu Xuan dribbled the ball directly to the Nets half, and his teammates ran to the three-point line, leaving the penalty area to him. Xu Xuan started three steps from the three-point line!
Huh!
How could the Jazz watch Xu Xuan make a dunk like this? At the moment when Xu Xuan started three steps, Hood hugged Xu Xuan with a big bear with both hands.
Although the ball was thrown out by Xu Xuan, everyone was hugged, and the ball was definitely not scored.
However, Hood was still a little surprised. He hugged directly, not pulled. That's it, he almost broke free by Xu Xuan.
If Xu Xuan didn't hold the ball and hit 2+1, it would be a fool.
"The defense is really tough. When you see the situation, you hug directly. This defense is really incomprehensible." Yu Jia smacked.
"The Jazz are trying to control the Lakers' scoring. If both sides do not score in such a sports game, then the Jazz must be happy."
The referee blew a foul, Xu Xuan walked to the free throw line and made two free throws amidst the boos from the audience!
20 to 18!
The Lakers are ahead!
Surprisingly, the coaches on both sides are not too anxious about the current situation. The Jazz believes that although the Lakers Xu Xuan scored, it is not a sports game. It doesn't matter what points are scored through free throws.
The Lakers don't care about that much, as long as they score.
The Jazz attacked.
There is not much time left in the first quarter, 40 seconds, two rounds of offensive time.
Hill brought the ball over, sweat covering his forehead.
Coach Quinn used the starting lineup for a full quarter. He is very tired now. It is not easy to get entangled with Xu Xuan. Moreover, compared to last season, Xu Xuan has a lot more hearts and hearts. There is no means, such as the left hand basket just now, and...Xu Xuan's defense!
That's right!
Xu Xuan's defense also gave him a lot of pressure. The Lakers put up a three-guard lineup, including Lu Wei and Yang Shaoxia. It stands to reason that even if the Jazz is not on the outside offensive position, it is estimated that they can be beaten into a sieve, but this The result did not appear. On the contrary, the Lakers’ offense is very difficult, and the Jazz’s offense is also very difficult.
Bowing his head and bending over, looking around, observing the situation on the court, Hill still did not forget to stare at Xu Xuan.
Just when he looked at Xu Xuan from his side of light, he found Xu Xuan stretched out his hands, with long arms, directly towards the basketball in Hill's hands.
Hill was so frightened that he hugged the ball with both hands and stopped dribbling.
What are you afraid of
But Xu Xuan's right hand didn't stop at all, and the speed got faster!
Snap! Xu Xuan directly cut the basketball in Hill's hands! The action was very clean, Xu Xuan's hand first touched the basketball in Hill's hand, so the referee did not call a foul.
Xu Xuan grabbed the basketball and rushed directly to the front court!
There was no one in the frontcourt, Hill did not expect that he would be intercepted, and the rest of the Jazz did not expect that, in the moment of loss, Xu Xuan had already reached the rim, took off and scored a dunk!
Frank applauded from the sidelines, then fell back and sat on the bench.
Broken beautiful!
There was a smile at the corner of his mouth, obviously he was extremely satisfied with the team or Xu Xuan's performance.
attack?
We are not just offensive!
Defense, we will too!
Now Xu Xuan has practiced defense, although it is not as good as the best defensive lineup, but like this unexpected and sudden shot just now, the opponent must not be able to react.
Xu Xuan played out, and the entire team was revitalized.
Looking at the game, the Lakers' offense was like a wave of anger, rushing into the Jazz defense again and again.
Listening to the urgent roar of the Jazz players and looking at their anxious expressions, Frank laughed out of nowhere.
He turned his head calmly and took a look. The "old-fashioned" was still sitting on the chair with the old god, with a calm and light appearance.
Frank could not help but slandered: pretending to be!
Don’t believe you don’t panic!
...
At the end of the first quarter, relying on Xu Xuan's unexpected steal and a final three-pointer hit, the Lakers are 25 to 20, leading the Jazz by 5 points.
Xu Xuan scored 11 points, 2 assists, 1 rebound, and 1 steal in a single quarter.
During the break, Frank once again briefly said about the substitution in the second quarter.
The Jazz’s starting lineup filled the first quarter, and they are bound to change in the second quarter. Frank also intends to let Xu Xuan go off the court. Xu Xuan also played the first quarter and Yi Jianlian. Et al.
At the beginning of the second quarter, the Lakers were lineups of Lu Wei, Russell, Ingram, Ci Shiping and Zubac.
On the Jazz side are Shelvin Mark, Dante Essam, Joe Ingles, Derek Favors and Gobert.
Joe Ingles is an old friend and opponent of the Olympics.
Dante Essam was the fifth pick in the first round of the 2014 class, but unfortunately, his performance has so far been unsatisfactory. His rookie season averaged only 4.8 points per game, and the word parallel imports has been posted on his forehead.
Shelvin Mark is an Italian player. In the 2011 NBA Draft, Shelvin Mark was selected by the Washington Wizards with the 34th overall pick in the second round.
His experience is relatively rich. In the past five years, he has changed four teams and his performance is mediocre. The only advantage is that he is relatively strong defensively, which is why he can be in the eyes of Quinn.
Xu Xuan focused on watching the performance of the substitute players off the court.
Russell is already a second-year player. Compared to pure rookies like Ingram and Zubac, he is obviously a lot more sophisticated. As for Ci Shiping, this guy is really ruthless. Xu Xuan is even considering whether to wait. Change tactics.
What spears and shields, shields and shields don't it fragrant?
Real men should fight bayonet face to face!
But think about it and forget it, no need, if you meet the Jazz in the playoffs, you can try it, you can definitely catch them by surprise.
In Xu Xuan's vision, his defense with Matt Barnes, Ci Shiping, Randle, and Yi Jianlian may not be much weaker than others.
On the final attack of the second quarter, Xu Xuan was replaced by Frank.
The Lakers played well off the bench. The current score is 51 to 45. The point difference has not narrowed, and it has expanded by 1 point.
In 12 seconds, the Lakers made the last attack of the second quarter, and Xu Xuan went to a 45-degree angle to catch the ball.
Seeing Xu Xuan holding the ball on the three-point line, and his first quarter shooting rate is not exaggerated, the hearts of the Jazz fans on the scene still trembled.
The shadow of the tree of human life and Xu Xuan's terrifying three-pointers are well-known in the entire league.
In fact, the reason why Jazz fans and even Quinn’s coach were satisfied with the performance in the first quarter was because Xu Xuan did not shoot that terrifying three-pointer.
For them, this is already a rare achievement.
Shelk Mark, who defended Xu Xuan, was very defensive. He saw Xu Xuan raising his hand to dribble the ball and he was about to steal the ball with his stubby beard.
How could it be that easy to steal, Xu Xuan dribbled the ball from behind and pulled away, stepped sideways, and moved to the side just to avoid Shelk Mark’s defense.
Xu Xuan kicks his legs, tightens his abdomen, stays in the air, and shakes his wrists!
Huh!
Three-pointer!
54 to 45, the score difference is almost 10 points.
With 5 seconds left for the Jazz, Coach Quinn also requested a timeout.
After the attack, Xu Xuan did not stay on the court, and coach Frank replaced Lu Wei.
The Jazz took advantage of the middle distance after the pick-and-roll, and Hill completed the end, 54-47. At the end of the first half, the Lakers led by 7 points and entered the intermission.
From this point of view, the Lakers have an absolute advantage. They are not scared by the Jazz's defensive release, but every attack can threaten them and make them exhausted.
Xu Xuan scored 14 points in the first half, 11 points, 2 assists, 1 rebound and 1 steal. He barely played in the second quarter.
Yi Jian scored 7 points at halftime, Lu Wei 5 points, Yang Shaoxia 6 points, Russell 8 points, 2 assists...
All the Lakers performed well.
On the Jazz's side ~EbookFREE.me~ the highest half-time score was Hill's 11 points, followed by the substitute Derek Favors's 10 points, and Gobert scored 7 points and 7 rebounds.
The locker room was quiet. Xu Xuan Ge You was lying on the leather cushion chair, head raised, enjoying the physical therapy and massage brought by the team doctor.
There was nothing to adjust. He walked to the center of the locker room and said a few words about the substitution in the second half, then sat aside and watched the game video.
Leading by 7 points, the Jazz should be worried.
ESPN's commentary is analyzing the first half of the two teams.
"I think the Jazz are playing very well. They have basically no problems on the defensive end, but on the offensive end. Without Hayward, they can only rely on Hill and Favors. This firepower is far from enough and quite Instability, if Hayward is not injured, the Lakers are estimated to be less than a 7-point lead."
ESPN and Xu Xuan have always been difficult to deal with, because they compete with TNT, and TNT is a loyal Xuan Chuan. Naturally, it is impossible for them to follow along, just like the previous players' strength rankings.
TNT ranks Xu Xuan first, and they rank Xu Xuan fifth...
The third quarter began.
The Lakers sent a lineup of Russell, Nick Young, Barnes, Larry Nance and Yi Jianlian. The Jazz also made substitutions. Now Hill, Hood, and singles Joe , Dior and Favors.
Frank didn't worry about replacing Xu Xuan. Now the situation is stable, and the young players have to experience more experience.
The game restarted. Hill controlled the ball to the frontcourt, broke through and failed to make a layup. The rebound was picked off by Favors. At the beginning of the second half, Hill had to find a sense.
Off the court, Xu Xuan glanced at Hill. Hayward was not there. The Jazz regarded Hill as the main scorer.
