Vol 2 Chapter 233: A desperate trailblazer

After the Jazz defeated the Blazers in two consecutive games at home, they became the first team in the playoffs to get two consecutive victories to get the match point, but because this game between the Blazers and the Jazz is really too much It was speechless, the slow pace of the two teams in the game, the crazy singles brought up by the Blazers, and the various tactical meanings of the fouls that appeared in the game to prevent the opponent from playing the offensive rhythm.
So on the second day of the second game between the Jazz and the Trail Blazers, although the Jazz won the game and got the pre-match, the team encountered huge accusations, even some people who were very supportive of the Jazz. I was a little dissatisfied with this team.
"This is one of the ugliest playoff games I have ever seen, although this game is a typical playoff rhythm game, slow, dull, lethargic, if not Lin Han The long-distance three-points from time to time can also refresh people, and this game will not leave me any good impact."
This is the Celtics fame after this game, and the rare nba has always supported the Jazz and Lin Han fame. The legendary player who live broadcast this game was almost directly expressed in an interview after the game. Out of his dissatisfaction.
"I'm not saying that the Jazz can't play such an ugly game, and winning in the playoffs represents everything. Everyone knows very well that the Jazz can be ugly, but this needs to be divided. If they are facing the Rockets, It is the Supersonics and the New York Knicks who are literary to the %Long%Wind% literature, then this team can win a game in such an ugly way, which is a very good thing."
"But their opponents are just Trail Blazers. Although this team is really good, they are really not level enough, and Jerry Sloan's command is too conservative. He is afraid of change, he is very afraid to perform challenging and adventurous. Things, if as a head coach of a strong team, his caution or caution is worthy of recognition, but if you want to become a championship coach, then his caution and caution is too heavy is not a good thing, Whether it's May Jackson, Pat Riley or Chuck Daly, they are all very courageous coaches."
"Perhaps in his opinion. The Jazz can win even if they play at the pace of the Blazers, but buddy. You are the Jazz, you are a 72-10 record first team in history, when you In a playoff game, following the pace of a 35-win team in the regular season, don't you find that this is a very shameful thing?"
"The Jazz are a very strong team. The players of this team have the ability to change any game. Jerry Sloan has many options to play the rhythm he wants. Don’t forget that this team is The most outstanding offense team in the regular season, many people now say that defense wins championships, because defense is the most conservative and safest way to play, but in the current nba, pure defense cannot win championships, even It was the Pistons who won the championship for two consecutive years. The average score of each game in the finals exceeded 110 points. The Jazz have the ability to play both offensive and defensive. Jerry Sloan needs to believe more in their players. Some changes are needed. Own inherent values"
"He needs to know that the jazz he is carrying is not an ordinary playoff team, but a championship team. Such a team needs its own distinctive style and unique control of the game. "Jazz cannot be trapped by a pioneer"
Larry Bird has never been a humble gentleman. The former NBA champion is one of the most venomous players in the history of NBA. Plus, since retiring, the Celtics legend has been the team’s management. After the exclusion, I have been indulging in the career of commenting for a while. It seems that I am more and more addicted. Of course, with his position in nba, he can certainly say a lot of things that other people can’t say or dare to say.
For example, this time, if some other people who do not have the status dare to fire on the Jazz, let alone the fans of the Jazz team will definitely scold. I am afraid that the media that support the Jazz team will not let go, but this time Bo After the German voice, don’t say that media experts who didn’t like the Jazz directly expressed their support. The Jazz can’t even control a trailblazer. Although the regular season performance is against the sky, the playoffs will definitely be tragic. Of course, For these guys, even if the Jazz can easily control the Trail Blazers, they can still find 10 reasons why the Jazz can't win the championship, so the opinions of these people are actually not important, the important thing is that many media support the Jazz. Larry Bird also expressed support after criticizing Jerry Sloan.
It must be said that in the second game between the Jazz and the Trail Blazers, after the Jazz defeated the Trail Blazers on their knees, Jerry Sloan's pressure was indeed great.
The head coach of a 72 wins and 10 losses team in the regular season to play in the playoffs, almost the world is waiting for this team to show the same dominance in the playoffs as the regular season, although everyone does not require jazz Play the same performance as the Blazers' first game, but at least they can't lead the nose with the rhythm of the Blazers?
Because the Jazz won the game in such a game, it can be seen from the very regretful expression of the coach Blazers after the game that this team is very unconvinced by the loss to the Jazz. Because they succeeded tactically, they lost because the team did not have a super player like Lin Han and Malone.
Of course, although Jerry Sloan’s command and response ability is really not good, and his coaching style is indeed lacking in adventurous spirit and excessive pursuit of caution, he is not unaware that the current jazz has the ability to play a lot of beautiful offenses. The key is that the team Despite this ability, he can't fully control this ability, let alone make the team play better. He really can't do it, he can't even control the team's offense, Lin Han and Malone And how the three Stockton hit him on the court can’t intervene unless he can come up with a more efficient offensive tactic than the three-star superstar. Otherwise, he can't change the team's offense. For a coach with a lack of security, such as Jerry Sloan, he can't control the team's offense. There is no sense of security. Although the three superstars of the Jazz are indeed strong, he can’t fully believe that the three of them can always be unfavorable when attacking with their own abilities. In this case, he naturally does not want to score the ball. Everything about the team is gambling on these three offenses, so although he cannot control the team's offense. But his best defense is still able to do it.
So, although he let Malone, Stockton and Lin Han consume a lot of energy on the defensive end, let alone. In the last game with the Blazers, the Jazz fans were dissatisfied with watching their team being led by the Blazers, but Jerry Sloan was very satisfied, because the team’s defensive performance in the last game made him have certain Of security.
of course. The Jazz defeated the Blazers at home. Having won two consecutive victories but was met with dissatisfaction by many people, this kind of thing cannot happen to the former jazz. After all, everyone’s requirements for the jazz in the past are absolutely different from the requirements for the jazz. Many people now think that Jerry Sloan's ability is not enough for the Jazz team, but for now, the Jazz's internals are actually relatively stable.
Although Jerry Sloan has some problems with his coaching ability, he has to say that because of his personality, his prestige on the team is very good. Although after the game between the Jazz and the Trail Blazers, the outside world is questioning Jerry Sloan's ability to coach. However, the internals of the Jazz are still very stable. Basically, all the jazz players have not focused on the matter of Jerry Sloan being hacked.
"The Rockets were actually defeated by the Suns at home for two consecutive games. Should this team be so miserable?"
After defeating the Blazers in the second game, the Jazz will have a three-day rest period, and the next away game with the Blazers will be on May 4th, so in addition to training, the Jazz players have recently Almost all of his energy is focused on the observation of several of his main opponents.
The main opponents of the Jazz in the playoffs are naturally impossible to be other teams, basically the Rockets, Supersonics, Warriors, Knicks four teams, especially the Western Supersonics and Rockets and Warriors, these three The only team is definitely the Jazz's hard team this season. The Supersonics and Warriors are really powerful after the start of the playoffs.
Especially the Warriors, facing the fourth Spurs in the West, this old Nielsen-led madman team is almost hanging the Spurs. The Warriors defeated the Spurs twice in the away. He played four times, but the two teams had a record of 2-2 in the regular season. Although the Spurs won one game, it was not so glorious. At the beginning of the season, because Chris Mullin was not there, the Warriors were infighted. The Spurs won the Warriors. The next game won was Rodman's extraordinary play. He grabbed 25 rebounds and 10 offensive rebounds in the game and directly contained the Warriors' run from the source. However, after the playoffs, Rod Man doesn’t know why he always feels lack of energy. In this case, there is no way to defeat the Warriors’ rebounds. The Spurs can only allow the Warriors to attack, and when the Warriors attack, don’t say the offense can only count on the Navy The Spurs will not play, I am afraid that even the Jazz may not be able to fight against the Warriors.
So according to this trend, the Jazz's opponent in the next round is likely to be their own home team, the Warriors.
Of course, the Spurs have a bad record now, so don’t blame them. After all, the Warriors really restrained them, and the team’s strength is not very good. In addition, the house leaks and the night rain. Rodman is in trouble, and the Rockets The team lost to the Suns at home for two consecutive games, which is completely unclear. Although the Suns are really strong, the Rockets are not bad. Even if the team has some running-in problems, Drexler actually The run-in with the Rockets is still very simple. After all, he and Olajuwon are teammates in college. The two sides are very familiar with each other. In addition, the other Rockets players are a group of shooters, and they only need to stand in Drexler and Austria. It’s okay around Lajuwon, so this team has lost two consecutive games in the playoffs, let alone Lin Han and the Jazz, even the national media can’t think of what the Rockets are doing.
"It seems that if we can reach the Western Conference finals, the opponent is likely to be the sun, of course, supersonic is not impossible."
As far as the current situation is concerned, the Jazz 2-0 Blazers and the Supersonics 2-0 Nuggets. The Rockets are 0-2 Suns and the Spurs are 0-2 Warriors, in terms of five wins and three wins. The West side really looks like the situation has been fixed. The four teams entering the second round are likely to be the Jazz, Supersonics, Warriors and Suns.
Of course, for the Jazz, if they can defeat the Warriors in the second round to enter the Western Conference finals, the opponent is likely to be supersonic or Sun, the chances of the Sun will be greater. Although supersonic speed is very good for jazz and jazz is good for the sun, another point is that the sun is good for supersonic speed. This is a cycle, and it seems to be a very good cycle for the Jazz.
So in the recent period of watching some sudden changes in the western playoffs, the Jazz players are actually very excited.
On May 4, 1994, three days after the second game of the Jazz and Trail Blazers. The Jazz came to Portland as a guest. Although the Blazers have lost to the Jazz in the first two games, this team has now been pushed to the cliff side by the Jazz, but for the Blazers, this team does not seem to have completely lost confidence, not only It's the players and head coaches who haven't lost confidence, even the fans of this team.
After all, for the Blazers, they lost the last game against the Jazz. But they are not without hope to win, especially the recent public opinion of NBA is very unfavorable to the Jazz. Especially for Jerry Sloan's conservative play, many people are very dissatisfied.
In this case, the Trail Blazers are all waiting for the Jazz to make mistakes, because for the Jazz, they are a 72-win team, and even such a conservative team can’t always think of Jerry Sloan. To win a trivial win, so from the perspective of the Trail Blazers, in this Jazz away game, the Jazz holding two victories and match points is absolutely likely to change, or change the team's style of play, Jerry Sloan Need to prove that he is not an ordinary strong team coach, he needs to prove that he also has the ability to lead the finals team to win the championship.
And as long as the Jazz have a tactical adjustment, the Blazers’ opportunity comes. After all, the Blazers are not unaware of the Jazz team. This team has played more since the second half of the regular season. It's easier and more direct to come. Since the entire United States is questioning Jerry Sloan's ability and his control of the Jazz, the Trail Blazers will naturally not think that Jerry Sloan is difficult to succeed even if he wants to change, and ultimately fails. It is more likely that Sloan's character, he is naturally impossible to make changes that may fail, so the Jazz's biggest change on the offensive end is likely to make the team's three superstars strengthen their offensive energy.
And this is exactly what the Blazers are most afraid of. As long as the Jazz have no tactical changes, their play can’t escape the three All-Star inside tactics of the Trail Blazers, as long as they can’t break through the Trail Blazers. With the heart-wrenching three-line tactics, the rhythm of the game will always be in the hands of the Blazers, and the Jazz who have spent a lot of energy on the offensive end and eventually failed will likely have problems on the defensive end. This is the opportunity of the Blazers!
As long as the Blazers win at home and turn the score into 1 to 2, the final problem will definitely be the Jazz, especially Jerry Sloan, then the Blazers' chance will finally come.
I have to say that as one of the most promising young head coaches of the school, Callesimo is really excellent in tactical analysis and brain repair, although the control of the Blazers is not enough, the team's execution is not good. But the best thing about such a coach is that every time the team loses, they can find a way to win, so for this type of coach, if they really control the team, it is really very powerful. Yes, it’s just that these former academic head coaches are difficult to control nba players because of the habits they form. After all, the nba player status and player status are completely different. These academic head coaches are often It was killed by the players of his team.
But at this time, the Blazers are up and down, so Carlesimo doesn't have to worry about being pitted by his players.
"Terry, I need you to strengthen your personal offensive ability in this game. On the offensive end, I must continue to put pressure on Lin Han. And Rod, if possible, you need to hit Lin Han more. Point, we need to reduce Lin Han’s offensive influence in this game. Do you understand?"
At 7 o'clock in the evening on May 4, 1994. An hour before the game between the Jazz and the Trail Blazers, the Blazers home team locker room, this time the Blazers coach Callesimo is arranging the game for his players. And if Lin Han is here at this time, he will be very surprised, because at this time, most of the tactical layout of Carlesimo is around him.
However, with the strength of the Trail Blazers, they really do not fear Malone. Although Malone is a superstar, they also have three All-Stars inside the team. Only Lin Han is such a point that they always can't match. Corbin is high enough, but the speed is not enough, Tripot speed is enough. But the height is not enough, the two men basically have similar defensive effects when facing Lin Han.
In this case, the head coach of the Trail Blazers still chose the strongest offensive point, Terry Porter, against Lin Han again, and obviously. The Blazers' head coach has given up the possibility of suppressing Lin Han on the offensive end. With Lin Han's offensive range, the Blazers are basically impossible to block Lin Han.
Offense cannot block Lin Han on the offensive end, so as long as Lin Han is given more defensive pressure on the defensive end, this can still be done, especially Terry Potter is not just a defender who can average 10 assists per game , This guy is one of the league’s most outstanding combo guards in the past few years. The Blazers used sports talent to crush the Western giants into the finals. Not only Drexler’s super personal talent and breakthrough ability, Tripo The same is true for special. Although this guy's personal ability and breakthrough are not as strong as Drexler, they are not much worse. And compared to Drexler, his current three-point ability is more stable, so Tribed can be regarded as a weaker breakthrough, stronger three-point weakened version of Drex Le.
Such a player can bring some defensive pressure to Lin Han on the offensive end, but the Blazers play in the first two games does not require him to force Lin Han, because other Blazers players face other jazz players. 'S offensive efficiency is higher, and now, in order to be able to contain Linhan's power on the offensive end, even if the efficiency is really not high, Terry Porter also needs to force Linhan to attack.
Therefore, this is actually a gamble. Gambling his offense can challenge Lin Han’s defense, and if his offense does not pose any threat to Lin Han’s defense, then the Trailblazer’s use of him will be completely defeated. .
Therefore, after getting this task at this time, Terry Porter nodded tightly at this time, and the All-Star guard of the Blazers didn't know what was in his heart.
Of course, at this time, the Blazers were arranging tactics against Lin Han, but in the jazz locker room, it was not so dignified. As many people guessed, the jazz coach Jerry Sloan was indeed in this game. Some changes have been made in the tactical arrangement, allowing Lin Han and Malone to put more energy on the offensive end, and it can be seen that they have faced the pressure of the recent period. Although the Jazz up and down still support him, but Jerry Sloan I really can't completely ignore these pressures.
However, despite the new tactics, after all, the tactics have not changed, so the Jazz players do not need to be as nervous as the Blazers players. At this time, the Jazz players are actually very relaxed.
"Boy Lin is constipated again, this guy has been squatting in the toilet for half an hour, right?"
"This kid will be like this as soon as he arrives at an important game. Such characteristics are really interesting."
Even after Jerry Sloan arranged the new instructions, under the leadership of the two heads of the Jazz, these guys had teased Lin Han, but this time hiding in the toilet, no, it should be said that Lin Han in the system space did not know These ones.
In the first game of the playoffs with the Trail Blazers, Lin Han played 5x5 data in the game, and because it was the first time a player played such data in the playoffs, Lin Han earned a purple gold in that game The skill points of the color are now added to the purple-gold skill points that Lin Han completed the first triple-double harvest of his career. At this time, Lin Han already has two purple-gold skill points.
Originally before this, Lin Han was going to save three skill points and upgrade Lin Han's three-pointer to lv3 level, which can make his playing on the offensive end more stable, but this game Jerry Sloan against the team With the new arrangement of tactics, I don’t know why, Lin Han feels that the Jazz team may not play so well in this game.
Especially when Jerry Sloan asked him and Malone to put more energy on the offensive end, Lin Han felt more and more intense.
"Are you really ready to use these two skill points now?"
In the system space. In the face of Alice's problems, Lin Han nodded after hesitating again and again. Originally, these two skill points were reserved for him to upgrade Chamberlain's locking cap to the highest level. But now it seems that these two skill points cannot be used in this way.
"This is also no way, I feel that the Blazers are not so easy to play in this game"
And after Lin Han finished, Alice nodded her head and said nothing, and after Lin Han gritted her teeth, she placed the remaining two purple gold skills on Lin Han’s three-point shot and omnipresent Co-defense skills above.
Skills: Lin Han's three-point shot (purple gold a+ level)
Skill level: lv2
Skill effect: This skill is a comprehensive shooting skill. This skill can greatly enhance the viewing effect. With lv2 level god-level McGrady special effects, with lv2 level god-level ventilation. Comes with lv2 level god-class fatal lore special effects, with lv2 level god-level ball shooting special effects
lv2 level level McGrady special effect at all times: when the host team is behind. The host can turn on the McGrady at any time for 35 seconds, each time it consumes 20% of the personality. If the host has enough personality, it can be opened multiple times, when the host's personality is less than 40%. A game can only be started once. After the host turns on McGrady. Three-point shooting percentage increased by 85%, two-point shooting increased by 75%. Three-point shots are not limited to the three-point line, and can reach up to three steps outside the three-point line
Special effect of lv2 level god-level ventilation: When the host uses this skill, the one-point hit rate of the three-point line is increased by 10%, and the two-step hit rate of the three-point line is increased by 15%. 20% increase in three-step chance
Special effect of lv2 god-level deadly lore: when the host team is behind. The skill has a 15% three-pointer hit rate. When the host uses the skill to throw a whistle lore in the game, the chance increases by 15%, and it can be predicted in advance whether the lore can advance.
lv2 God-level catching shot: When the host uses this skill to make a three-point shot and take a shot, the unmanned shooting rate increases by 20%. 15% increase in shooting percentage when someone is defending
This is Lin Han's three-point lv2 level, when this skill is upgraded to lv2. The other three special effects improve the hit rate, and the only thing that surprises Lin Han is that after McGrady has reached lv2, there is no limit of 8 points behind, but as long as the team is behind, it can be opened. This skill, although it still requires 20 points of character each time it is turned on, but it is too much better than the lagging father who needs to be behind by 8 points.
Skills: Kirilian Science and Technology defense skills (purple gold a + level skills)
Skill level, lv2
Skill effect: This skill belongs to outside defense skill, this skill comes with lv1 level omnipresent special effect. Comes with special effects of level lv2
lv1 level ubiquitous special effects: in any game, when the host is on the court as a defensive player. When facing the attacking defense, when the opponent passes the ball, the host can predict the pass in advance before the opponent passes the ball. This effect cannot be upgraded.
Level lv2 has no special effects: the host's reaction speed on the defensive end is increased by 30%, the steal rate is increased by 30%, and the blocking rate is increased by 30%. This effect cannot be used in combination with other defensive skill effects.
If the biggest change in Lin Han’s three-point shooting at the lv2 level is to enhance the strength of the skill that McGrady made Lin Han less dare to use, then after the ubiquitous skill is upgraded to lv2, it really gives Lin Han a huge A sense of security.
Because when this skill is upgraded to lv2, the reaction speed, steal rate and blocking rate have doubled, which is exactly double!
It even gives Lin Han the feeling that if his reaction speed can be increased a little, even if he is an outside player, he can do the same defense as an inside player, and even the area that can be covered for a short time will become more and more Big, even give Lin Han the feeling that if this skill is really upgraded to lv3 according to Lin Han's physical talent and may become an ubiquitous assist defense skill.
However, if you want to increase this level to lv3, I am afraid that a short time is unlikely.
At 8 o'clock in the evening on May 4, 1994, the Portland Memorial Stadium was crowded with all the Blazers fans at this time.
Obviously, the fans of the Blazers did not give up for this game. As many people said before the game, although the Blazers lost 0 to 2, they are not without opportunities.
Although it has been a failure for Paul Allen in recent seasons, he has reached the finals twice in four consecutive years. This has allowed the Blazers to have a lot of loyal fans, although this team has not won the championship. It's a shame, but at least the team's loyal fans are not many.
So when Lin Han and the other players of the Jazz came out first from the player channel, they felt the atmosphere that was somewhat depressing for them. I have to say that this playoff booing can really disturb some young people. The player's mind, which can be seen from the face of David Wesley. UU reading www.uukanshu. com
Of course, Lin Han, who came out of the boos of the fans at this time, did not notice that there was a pair of eyes watching him in the stands.
"Boss, Carlesimo promises to beat the Jazz in this game"
In the stands of the Blazers' home stadium, Paul Allen just nodded after hearing his assistant's whisper, his eyes still staring at the jazz number eight, and this The face of the Blazers boss is also a little complicated.
"You tell them that if they lose this game, none of them will be on the team next season."
When Paul Allen spoke lightly, even his assistant was startled.
You know, Paul Allen has always been very good for his players, and he has never said such heavy things.
It's just obvious that this time was different from usual, so Paul Allen's assistant left again after taking a deep look at the jazz number eight on the court. (To be continued...) ()
