Chapter 100 : The team has an old man, like a treasure!

This season’s Cavaliers are under its head coach Mike? Under the leadership of Fratello, the team’s overall defensive system is extremely stable and has become the best defensive team in the entire NBA. They only averaged 88.5 points per game.

Relying on their excellent overall defensive skills, the Cavaliers have scored 12 wins this season and ranked eighth in the Eastern Conference.

The reason why his record failed to improve in the case of such a good defense is mainly because his offense is really bad.

The best defensive ability, combined with the league’s penultimate offensive ability, can maintain more than 50% of the regular season wins. In fact, it is already very good. If it can continue, the Cavaliers will enter this season. The probability of the regular season is very high.

And it’s not impossible that its record ranking may be able to rise up some more places.

This time facing such a team with a serious offensive and defensive imbalance, the Jazz encountered trouble at the beginning of the game.

Different from the tough defensive methods of the Knicks and the Heat, the Cavaliers’ actions on the defensive end are also not small, but they have not reached the level of fouls. They rely more on various defenses and supplements. Or timely double-teaming and defensive positions to limit the opponent’s scoring efficiency, the speed of returning to defense is also extremely fast.

Suddenly encountering such a sharp defensive team and back-to-back away games, the players are very exhausted physically and mentally, and the competitive state will inevitably be affected…Under the combined influence of various factors, the Jazz The team’s opening offense efficiency is relatively average.

Master~ Carl? When an opportunity appeared, Malone failed to make consecutive shots. He originally made a good shot, but this time he missed a shot and his whole body was depressed.

Two-headed Stockton’s outside vacant three-pointers collapsed and the basket popped out, the same!

Ostertag’s basketball faces were snatched by opponents, Chris? Morris does not have the ball at all…Bitter BI 310. The player with the most consistent performance of the Jazz turned out to be Wang Pan.

Before the start of this road trip, almost everyone thought that because they would be targeted by other teams, their performance must begin to decline, even the first-year second-round rookies who encountered the rookie wall. Turns out to be the only player in the team who can perform normally.

2 of 2, scored 4 points steadily!

This is all the points scored by the Jazz in the first quarter of the game in the past four minutes.

According to Wang Pan’s idea, they have already played this niao look. No matter how bad the Cavaliers’ offense is, it is impossible to score 4 points in four minutes. They must be able to take advantage of the situation and widen the difference. , So as to establish a leading edge.

Who thinks the opponent’s performance on the offensive end is also very broken, or that they may have been like this.

It’s a little better than the Jazz, um… I only scored a mere 5 points in total, and only led by 1 point.

Both sides performed very poorly on the offensive end, and on the defensive end, they were all very strong defenses.

It’s like this round…

The Jazz have the ball, Wang Pan is strong against Bobby in midfield? Phils stepped into the basket, but didn’t wait for him to take off, Chris? Mills had already doubled up, and the two wrapped Wang Pan in the middle, holding their hands high, not giving him a chance to make a move.

He didn’t take steals rashly, and didn’t give him any chance of committing a foul.

In desperation, Wang Pan can only see the timing and grab a basketball from Bobby with one hand? Fields’ yao peeked over, and with his wrist flipped, the basketball fell aside Chris? Morris’s hands.

The latter was ready to shoot when he received the ball, but was the Cavaliers power forward Danny? Ferry slapped the basketball directly.

Stockton jumped up to grab the basketball, facing a thin body and not as tall as his own Trier? Brandon, after a two-step forcibly, stopped making a shot.

But the opponent didn’t wait for him to shoot (cafj) his hand, and his right hand blocked Stockton’s line of sight, only relying on his hand to throw the ball.

DUANG!



Failed to make a hit, Stockton shook his head annoyed, but there was no good way. The basket this night seemed to have been cursed, and he couldn’t make it. At the same time, looking at the basketball flying straight towards him, Wang Pan reacted quickly, starting with a strong force to drive Bobby? Phils, jumped up and took control of the basketball. Before landing, he threw the ball toward the basket, and did not give the opponent the slightest chance to defend.

“Expansion? Deleting a board hit two points, Wang Pan let out a long sigh of relief, it was too difficult to score two points.

The ball is converted, the Cavaliers have the ball…

Trier? Brandon was very uncomfortable being entangled by Stockton, and he didn’t have a good chance, so he immediately raised his hand to pass the basketball, Chris? Mills takes the ball and rushes Chris? Morris succeeded, stepped into the basket, jumped up and prepared to slam dunk, but was slapped directly by Malone on the basketball in his hand.

The basketball flew out quickly, and Mills did the same.

One-handed blocked shots can be shot directly with the ball, Carl? Ma Long’s power is so great that it can be called fear!

After the referee hesitated for a while, the whistle was not sounded. After all, Malone did not touch Mills, but the strength of the block was slightly heavier.

Upon seeing this, Stockton struggling to rush out of the sideline to get the ball back, but he staggered directly into the audience.

Yao, the girl who was downed by pu looks pretty good.

After a glance, Wang Pan took the ball forward and glanced at the Cavaliers who had quickly returned to defense. Knowing that the fast break could not be achieved, he dribbled the ball through halftime. Stockton, who didn’t look at chatting with that girl much, got up and ran over mercilessly, passed the ball into his hands, and he ran to the bottom three-point line to see out.

Bobby who is in charge of following him? Phils followed very well, but it was the first time he encountered Ostertag’s pick-and-roll, and failed to follow, but Michael? Cage, the two-meter and eight-eight center forward, changed his defense in time, but he was obviously not as good as Wang Pan, and he was quickly thrown away.

Danny? Ferri immediately went forward, not ready to give Wang Pan a chance to shoot as soon as he catches the ball.

One after another, I really can’t finish it!

But the opponent is Carl? Malone missed it, Michael changing defense? Cage failed to teleport to the defense again. At this moment, there was an opportunity. How rich the experience of the old horse is. He raised his hand for the ball in the first time. Stockton has a very good vision and delivered the basketball accurately. Its hands.

Do you know Karl who feels normal tonight? Ma Long did not choose China Investment this time, but directly prepared for dunks.

But as soon as he jumped up, before he pulled his big arm to complete the dunk, Bobby was patched up? Fields hugged him from the air.

Well, it’s a hug, in fact, it’s more like a little niao’s dependence on a person.

After all, compared to Carl? Malone, who is 1.96 meters tall and weighs less than two hundred catties, is really too petite.

The two landed steadily, but there was no conflict.

Carl? Ma Long seemed very calm. He hadn’t seen any kind of storms in the vertical and horizontal alliance for more than ten years. This kind of action by the other party was just a routine operation. It was the free throw line that the Cavaliers generals’ tight muscles suddenly relaxed a lot.

Really want to fight, the group of them may not be enough for Malone to pull alone.

Even the referee was relieved. If this fight really starts, should he run, run, or just run? !

‘ridicule? He made two free throws, Carl? Malone struggled to break his own scoring shortage in this game.

As for the team, it was 8:5, leading the Cavaliers by 3 points.

The game continues, the Cavaliers rely on Chris? Mills’ central voter narrowed the point difference to 1 point, which seemed to be easy.

Just when the audience thought that the shooting percentage of the two teams would return to the normal level, in the next few rounds, there was a sound of iron rolling on the court. It was so depressed to see whether they were depressed, but there was no good way. It can be seen that the players are playing very seriously and are not perfunctory, but the ball just doesn’t make it. What can you do?

The first quarter ended soon. The Jazz scored 15 points in a single quarter, which is undoubtedly the team’s lowest score in a single quarter this season. The Cavaliers are even more speechless. They only scored 12 points in a single quarter. I’m all stupid.

People who don’t know think that these are two elementary school teams, and the famous NBA team’s shooting percentage?

Are you embarrassed?

Wang Pan said that he was not embarrassed, he couldn’t control other people, anyway, his hit rate was not bad.

Sitting off the court in the second quarter to rest, watching the bench blast, his side had a significant advantage, Wang Pan and his teammates immediately felt relieved.

Jeff? Since Hornacek was placed on the bench as the sixth man of the team, his efficiency is obviously higher than when he was the main player before. There is no need to play too long in each game, and his physical fitness is maintained. It’s pretty good.

This time in the whole team…well, excluding Wang Pan, they all looked exhausted. After playing abnormally on the field, Lao Huo showed his stability and helped the team while the opponent’s efficiency continues to be low. Gradually widen the points difference.

The team has an old person, like a treasure!

Facts have proved that the Cavaliers’ offense does have a lot of problems. Many of the best outings have failed to make a hit, and there is not much cooperation on the offensive end. Most of the time, they are singles, and at most they are just picks and rolls. .

Well, the Jazz seems to be the same…



Looking at the situation on the field that is becoming more and more unfavorable for him, the Cavaliers have replaced their main lineup ahead of time, but they have stabilized the situation, Jerry? Sloan sits firmly on the Diaoyutai, seeing the hard-working look of Lao Huo and other players who can still stand in a stalemate with the opponent on the field, and is not in a hurry to change players.

It was not until five minutes left in the second quarter when the Jazz still led their opponents by six points before allowing Wang Pan to make their debut.

In the first round of the game, Wang Pan took the ball and beat Bobby? Phils, just stepped into the free throw area, Chris? Mills doubled over.

Without procrastination, he raised his hand and sent the ball to Chris? Morris’s hands.

With Morris unguarded, he did not hesitate this time and made a decisive shot. The basketball drew a beautiful parabola in the air and fell straight into the basket.

CIC made a hit, and the point difference widened to 8 points.

The ball seemed to open the door to the Jazz player Gan. In the next five minutes of the second quarter, Carl was slumped throughout the first quarter? Malone and Stockton finally recovered their form, Wang Pan received five assists as a result, and the number of half-time assists reached 7 times, setting a new personal assist high.

In terms of the team, the Jazz relied on the outstanding performance of the two core players and expanded the score difference to 13 points at halftime!

The second half was even more steady and steady. As the Cavaliers’ offensive end continued to collapse and their own state became more and more colorful, the advantage was maintained to the end.

Won the away game without risk. Wang Pan played 35 minutes in this game and scored 20 points, the highest score in the game.

There were also 9 assists and 3 rebounds.

Only one assist was enough to achieve the first double-double achievement of his career. Unfortunately, he had already been replaced at that time. In the past few passes, the teammates also failed to make the ball. Fate is too, he may be destined to not get a double-double in this game.

After finishing the game with the Cavaliers, the Jazz didn’t have much time to rest. They took a rest in Cleveland and flew to Chicago at noon the next day. The final battle of this away trip is about to begin. The opponent is… …Chicago Bulls!
