Chapter 508: Old gunman

After a big score victory over the Rockets, the Pistons set off for Salt Lake City to challenge the Jazz.
Their record has reached 38 wins and 4 losses, holding an eight-game winning streak, as long as they maintain their status, they will have the opportunity to become the first 40-win team this season.
Probably the only one.
The Pistons' momentum is unmatched, just as when the season started.
But someone in the world will always sing against you.
"Looking at the Detroit Pistons now, I think of last season."
"Last season they were also unmatched in the regular season, but suffered a hard fight in the semi-finals and lost to the Bulls with internal and external problems in the final."
"Once entering the critical moment, only Dor.Mo can stand up and score, they don't have a heart for the championship."
"Of course, I am optimistic that they will end the regular season with the best record, but not optimistic that they will go further in the playoffs."
The game for the Jazz is a hurdle before the Pistons.
Before the start of the season, the Jazz fans thought that this year belonged to them, because the bulls disintegrated.
The Jazz who met the best chance of winning in history has retained 10 of the 12 players who participated in the 98 Finals. Swingman Morris went to the east, and Anthony Kyle, who made a remarkable performance in Game 5 of the 98 Finals, went to the Rockets.
In addition to the classic fivesome, center Foster, power forward Kiefer, point guards Eisley, Vaughan, swingman Anderson chose to stay. The ashes-class old Jazz Tour Bailey (80s Jazz ace power forward) returned to the Jazz. He took the last stroke and returned to the NBA from Italy with a desire to win a championship. He is 38 years old and surpassed in one fell swoop. After becoming Stockton, became the longest jazz. There are also three dragon players, these 14 people, constitute the Jazz season lineup. Although he is aging, with his high fighting spirit and skilled overall coordination, Jazz is considered to be the biggest favorite to win the championship.
Compared to the Pistons, Jazz is the other extreme.
So far this season, the Pistons have averaged 128 points per game and 114 points per game.
The scoring average is first in the league, and the scoring average is second in the league.
What about jazz? They averaged 93 points per game and 83 points per game.
The highlights tonight are here, Jazz and Pistons, who can drag anyone into their game rhythm?
To know who the rhythm of this game is, just look at the scores of both sides.
If you score more, the game rhythm will naturally fall into the hands of the Pistons; if you score less, the game will be controlled by the Jazz.
Tonight's high-profile game was succeeded by Ostertag's jumper, and Karl Malone missed the start with a high jumper.
Rashid wants to play a psychological battle with Malone.
You missed a shot? Rubbish! I can hit it.
In the same position, Malone also gave him an open space. Rashid made a straight arm jumper. The ball was beautifully curved in the air and rolled into the basket beautifully. It was moving.
2 to 0
"Karl, how did you become a bank?" Rashid shouted.
This is Rashid's favorite rubbish. If the opponent's defense is bad, he will sneer: "He is a bank! He is a bank!"
Stockton passed the ball to Byron Russell after halftime. Russell gave Malone again. Malone first looked at the position of his teammates, and suddenly found that Hornacek received a screen and ran out of the space, and immediately passed the ball.
The old gunner Hornacek scored a 45-point three-pointer from the right.
The daughter Abby on the sidelines jumped excitedly.
This surprised Houston for a while: "Can't think of the old guy's daughter being so natural?"
Mo Mengchen dribbles with one hand, Stockton guarantees that a hand is attached to his body, which seems to be an unconscious action. In fact, as long as he enters the dead end, this hand attached to the person can make unexpected small movements.
This is also one of Stockton's most disgusting points, with more small movements on his hands than his body hair.
However, if the target is Mo Mengchen, Stockton needs to think twice about making small moves.
Mo Mengchen was notoriously famous, and Qiu must be reported on the spot. Taking small actions against him, Stockton had to decide whether he could withstand this guy's counterattack.
Stockton was hesitating, Mo Mengchen shook his hand to shake out a space, high on the right, pulled up a jumper and hit.
4 to 2
"Nice jumper." Stockton praised, passing the ball to Hornacek pulled out.
Standing in the low position opposite Hornacek is Malone, and Rashid has been entangled with him for a long time.
This is where Jazz's greatest reliance lies.
Malone, 35 years old.
Mo Mengchen believes that this is the reason why they always crash at critical moments. No matter if they are poor in physical strength, or they will shrink at birth, Malone is unable to harden at the critical moment, and the Jazz must rely on him.
Malone catches the ball and Rashid defends.
Rashid is not only younger than Malone, but also taller than him. From a defensive perspective, this is an advantage.
Malone took the ball, turned around and took a step back. His body was fixed like a nail, holding the ball in his chest with both hands, shaking several times in a row.
Rashid didn't know what he wanted to do, and the two were frozen in place.
Mo Mengchen was thinking about walking past, Malone suddenly lifted the ball, which even Rashid did not expect, and scored on the spot.
"You want to guard against me, you are eighteen thousand years earlier." Malone dropped the and ran away.
"No matter how I am, you're better than your exit king!" Rashid growled.
Mo Mengchen came over fiercely: "Want to eat T again?"
Rashid calmed down and served the ball honestly.
Because Rashid eats T frequently, if he triggers the penalty clause again, he will be suspended for five games. Therefore, after discussing with Mengmeng and Westphal, he decided to implement a set of management measures for him.
The specific method is that Mo Mengchen disciplines on the field, Westphal restrains off the field, and replaces people if necessary, preferring to lose a bit inside, rather than letting this guy find T.
"I haven't eaten T..."
Rashid's hands were tucked in his trouser pockets, and his voice was very low, without any confidence, and he ran forward sullenly.
"Are you overkill?" Hill asked.
"Take care of yourself!"
Mo Mengchen advanced the ball and called the scalpel tactics.
The Jazz obviously studied the tactics. Houston couldn't run out of opportunities for a while and was replaced by Hill. Tonight's first three-pointer, Devil Mountain missed.
Ben Wallace shouted, grabbed an offensive rebound from Ostertag's hand, and tugged it into the rim.
6 to 5
The Jazz continue to play Malone.
This round's offense has changed a bit more than the previous round.
The bearer is on the left and Malone is on the right. To pass the ball to Malone, three passes are required, which not only wastes time but also increases the risk of steals. Jazz's approach is to cover the inside through the inside to help Malone run to the left waist position, which not only shortens the time, but also ensures the safety of the pass, and also makes Malone misplaced against Ben Wallace. It is really A rare simple tactic.
Malone and Big Ben, the two most muscular men in NBA history.
"Be careful!"
Stockton's reminder was fast enough, and Malone instantly threw the ball away, but...Mo Mengchen's reaction was terrible.
When Stockton made a sound reminder, he knew that the sneak attack was destined to fail, and he predicted Malone's reaction in advance and jumped ahead.
As a result, Malone was like a robot controlled by him, just tossing the ball into his arms.
"What a precise prediction!"
Mo Mengchen cut off Malone's pass and drew it for a moment. He fixed his eyes on Hill in front and threw the ball with both hands.
Hill in the frontcourt dribble the ball, jumped from the side, slender body flew to the basket, hands dunk.
8 to 5
Sloan looked sullen, which he did not want to see.
"You can't let them fight back!" Sloan yelled.
The Pistons scored 32 points per game in counterattacks, 14 points more than the second-ranked Lakers.
As long as they can limit their counterattack, they have to put more energy into positional battles.
As we all know, the efficiency of positional warfare cannot be as high as counterattack.
In that way, the hit rate drops, the score decreases, and the running team can't run. Isn't that crippling?
This is the so-called rhythm.
So Sloan was so angry when he saw that the Pistons counterattacked successfully: "Pass the ball well! Be patient and attack! Speed ​​up the retreat! Can't let them fight back!"
Sloan's face was extremely ugly, and his voice was the loudest at the scene.
"Let that guy be careful, that is by no means the only sneak attack I have tonight." Mo Mengchen said to Stockton.
Stockton's expression is like poker, and it's hard to see the obvious emotional changes on it.
I don’t know what happened to Houston’s defense. Hornacek ran out of position again, Stockton passed the ball in place, and the old gunner once again output a shell.
8 to 8
"Daddy is the best!"
Abby jumped excitedly.
"What kind of defense are you!" Mo Mengchen asked.
Houston has no excuses. Hornacek threw him away twice in a row through several normal screen runs.
"I believe that's not the last time Alan Houston lost his position tonight~EbookFREE.me~ The same words, Stockton returned Momo Chenchen.
"Take care of yourself first, old man!"
Mo Mengchen said that when he turned his face, he turned his right foot quickly, and stepped into Stockton's defensive position.
Stockton wanted to stop him. This is impossible. Mo Mengchen's impulse is not only fast, fierce, and powerful. When necessary, giving a dark elbow is also the most basic breakthrough etiquette.
Stockton didn't expect this young man to be so aggressive.
His defense was penetrated in an instant.
When one person enters, all parties are in chaos.
Houston ran out of opportunity through chaos, and Mo Mengchen legend passed.
Tonight's CIC king didn't seem to bring the shooting bag to the scene. Such a good chance to miss again. The Jazz got the rebound and was preparing to fight back. Mo Mengchen started to hug Brian Russell and stopped it with a foul. .
