Chapter 89: [The biggest weakness]

　　On June 1, the first battle between the two sides started at Madison Square Garden.
　　 David Stern did not go to the scene to watch the game, watching the live broadcast at home, waiting for the assistant to report the news about the ratings.
Bad news came when the players warmed up. As expected by Stern, the ratings were not high, only 10.7. Although the game will increase after the start of the game, it is very sad, 13 and the previous two years, the overall 16.7, 16.8 completely Fabby.
　　 This is the charm of the superstar, which is the value of Michael Jordan. All the ratings he participated in the finals were super high, and even reached a record 17.9 in 1993.
　　 Assistant Adam Silva asked: "David, which team do you think will win?"
　　 "I hope the Knicks will win because they have a good offense. If the Knicks can hold the offensive banner next season, I hope they will establish a dynasty." Sternlian said two hopes, obviously not looking forward to the Jazz.
　　 This is the sorrow of the Salt Lake City team. In terms of geographic location, the Jazz can only be regarded as a fourth-tier city in the NBA, not even Toronto, where the Raptors are.
　　 In addition, Salt Lake City is also a Mormon Center, and Mormons are fanatics. Even if this place is not the worst, it must be the bottom five in the league.
　　 CCTV5 live broadcast, Zhang reasonable introduced the players. "Today the Knicks have changed again. Oakley returned to the starting line-up with Ben Wallace. The point guard is Starks, Houston shooting guard and small forward Bowen."
　　Sun Zhengping said: "Oakley and Malone are old opponents. Malone has elbowed a lot of people and has to converge on Oakley. Otherwise, the two are likely to fight."
　　 Some media have selected the dirtiest player in the league, the second is Malone.
　　Malone had knocked "Assassin" Thomas from the air directly to the ground and fainted. In this playoff, Malone also shocked "Admiral" Robinson.
　　Evils still need to grind, and it is Oakley who ranks first on this list.
　　Oakley has never been afraid of fierce fouls and never afraid of fighting. He is good at avoiding the referee's line of sight, using foul small moves and large moves to prevent opponents from scoring.
　　 Jazz starting: Stockton, Hornacek, Russell, Malone, Foster.
　　 Starks came to the point guard, was the result of Yang Rui and Van Gundy discussing, and planned to win unexpectedly.
　　 36-year-old Stockton has already started playing health basketball this season. He was originally of poor physical fitness, with a height of 185CM and a weight of only 77 kg.
　　Yang Rui was very curious about what level of Stockton's defense was, because many people said that this born thin guy was extremely tough, top defense, and almost praised the sky. He also made five best defenses for the second time.
As a result, Yang Rui watched many videos and found that Stockton had good consciousness and many small movements. But after the misalignment, there was basically no way to do it. It was easy to be eaten by the back of the person and assisted by the big man inside. In addition, he would be The big man who can shoot is awkward, Stockton's defensive honor is too good.
　　Go to Starks, in order to let him directly singled Stockton, this is a good opportunity.
　　Oakley gave Houston a ball-free screen from the side. Houston attracted the inside defense to single out or pass Oakley to pass the ball. When there is space, he can shoot.
　　Foster won the ball and the game began.
　　The Knicks defender is marked, and the position is relatively inward. Just play the jazz and shrink as much as possible. Sloan simply doesn't allow players to make three more points. Unless it's a particularly good opportunity, wait for scolding.
　　 entered the playoffs, the Jazz is also the least three-pointer of all teams, averaging 9.1 shots per game.
　　 Malone gave Stockton a pick-and-roll from a high position. Oakley immediately changed defense. Stockton took two steps laterally and passed it to the middle to squeeze the Malone from Starks.
　　Malone took a step and was blocked by the retracted Ben Wallace, and Foster was emptied. Oakley also let go of Stockton's retraction and formed a double.
　　 Malone is 206cm, unable to squeeze into the basket and force shots with limited efficiency. He scored the ball to the left bottom line.
　　 Foster took the ball in his free seat and stood by to wait for his teammates to catch up and pass the ball.
　　 This 90-year-old white center who was selected by the Bullets in the second round of the eighth round was offensively rotten, and he relied on defensive mixed rice. This season he averaged 5.7 points per game is the peak of his career, scoring all rely on the basket to pick up leaks, shooting only 44.5%. It is difficult for the league to find blue collars that are bluer than this.
　　Jazz players passed back and forth, pick-and-roll running positions, and they didn't pass the empty after 24 seconds. Russell stopped the jumper and missed under the interference of Bowen. Big Ben protected the rebound.
　　The Knicks attacked, and Starks dribble the ball to the frontcourt and was stocked by Stockton. He waited for Houston to get rid of the ball-free cover and passed the ball.
　　 Malone changed defense very quickly, Houston did not directly attend the mobile phone meeting and assigned the ball to Oakley.
　　Oakley guarded the ball, then distributed to Starks running to the left bottom line, the latter missed the ball and missed the jumper. The opportunity has come out, Starks catches the ball and shoots quickly, and Stockton cannot cover it.
　　Daben got stuck on the other side, grabbed the offensive rebound and passed it. Houston ran to the free throw line to catch the ball and hit under the interference of Hornacek. 2 to 0.
Players don’t have any fancy moves. The Knicks’ main two-day practice is catching shots. EbookFREE.me .
　　The offense was blocked by the Knicks. The mid-range and long-range shots were put in the periphery. 24 seconds soon, Malone's mid-range shot missed under the interference of Starks and grabbed a rebound.
　　 Knicks position battle, Malone instead went to the basket, in order to protect the backcourt rebounds, Foster averaged 18.5 minutes per game, only 3.5 rebounds, weakly exploded.
　　Houston got rid of Hornacek through the cover of Oakley, received the ball to get a mismatched heads-up opportunity, accelerated the two-step shift to get rid of Foster, and stopped the jump shot from a high position.
　　 is similar to the position just now, Houston feels very soft, two hollow. 4 to 0.
　　 Jazz attack, players pass back and forth, pick-and-roll, helpless every time the Knicks change defense in time, there is no free time.
　　 Honasek made a breakthrough shot on the right and missed the basket under the interference of Oakley. Big Ben grabbed a rebound.
　　The Knicks played very simply. Starks led to the frontcourt to pick Stockton, but he missed a jumper.
　　Jazz position battle, pick-and-roll was limited by the Knicks' compression defense.
　　 Obviously the opponent blocked the penalty area, and the Jazz also tried to hit the basket. According to Sloan's arrangement, he shot near the basket. This is a strategic mistake.
　　 Stockton will break into the crowd as soon as he breaks through, and the ball will go out. Malone can only choose a high shot and can't get to the basket.
　　 Hornacek can't run away with Foster's cover, the Knicks players change their defense firmly, and there are people who rotate to supplement the defense.
　　Yang Rui watched the game on the sidelines and had a peculiar feeling. He felt that the biggest weakness of this Jazz team was the well-known famous coach Jerry Sloan.
