Chapter 294 Pick and Roll Master Jazz Team
"Dear gentlemen and ladies, the game you are watching now is the Western Conference semifinals, the Lakers against the Utah Jazz."
The narrators Nixon Winter and Bill Worrell were already sitting on the tech table.
"The Utah Jazz team is very resilient. In the regular season record, they are weaker than the Rockets. Since the Jazz are the champions in the division, they will gain home court advantage when they play against the Rockets."
"But unfortunately, with two home court advantages, the Jazz still lost to the Yao-Mike combination."
"However, they were very strong, and they were not discouraged. Instead, in the next four games, they defeated the Rockets one after another and successfully advanced to the Western Conference semifinals. Now they are facing a team that is recognized as the strongest in the league, the Los Angeles Lakers!"
"I don't know if the Jazz can continue to show bravery and eliminate the Lin Ke combination that the entire league is afraid of!"
These two old guys talk in the same way.
As their words fell, they immediately aroused the dissatisfaction of the fans at the scene.
Defeat the Lin Ke combination?
Don't even think about it, this is Los Angeles, and there are two super scorers on the team.
Do you think Lin Feng and Kobe are a combination of Yao and Mai?
In the case of a big score of 2:0, it was also overturned by the Jazz.
"Give up your mind, it's impossible for the Jazz to beat our Lakers!"
"The Lakers are invincible and have no opponents!"
"China Lin, Kobe, come on, you are the most powerful combination in the league!"
The Lakers fans are getting angry. Bill Worrell and Nixon Winter seem to be looking for trouble. They say this before the game starts.
"Lin, what do you say? In this game, how many points did we win against the Jazz?"
Kobe sat on the sidelines, tying his shoes and talking.
"At least win them by ten points!" Lin Feng laughed, "By the way, how many times do we eliminate them by a big score?"
"It's better to be 4:0, because I don't have much time to spend with them."
"Ha ha…"
Lin Feng smiled, Kobe had exactly what he thought.
To eliminate the Utah Jazz, just like eliminating the Golden State Warriors, it is best to have another 4:0 sweep and shave their heads again.
The game officially started, and the players of the two teams walked to the middle circle.
The starting lineup of the Lakers has not changed, Kobe, Lin Feng, Lao Yu, Bynum, Odom.
The starting lineup for the Utah Jazz is as follows:
Number one, Deron Williams.
Deron, a player known to many fans, is an excellent point guard in the league. He was selected by the Jazz with the third overall pick in the first round in 2005.
Professional characteristics, strong leadership ability, skilled personal skills, and outstanding passing with a wide field of view.
The second position, Mitch Harpning.
Harpning probably entered the NBA in the 2002 draft, stayed in other teams earlier, and later moved to the Utah Jazz.
Although Harpning is a player who plays in the position, his scoring ability is very average.
Under normal circumstances, Jazz coach Jerry Sloan dispatched Harpning, mostly to let him defend the opponent's superstar and consume the energy and physical strength of the opponent's scorer.
Everyone in the league knows that Harpning plays dirty and keeps making small moves on the defensive end.
In the last round of the series, it was Harpning who specifically marked McGrady, and McGrady lost his temper for a while.
After the game, Tracy McGrady and Van Gundy complained about Harpning's dirty playing, lack of player quality, and lack of education.
And Hapning responded calmly, dirty is also a realm!
This clearly provokes McGrady and the entire Rockets.
Harpning also lived up to the high expectations placed by head coach Jerry Sloan. He professionally defended McGrady, strangled one of the Rockets' offensive points, and successfully sent the Rockets away.
Now that the Jazz have met the invincible Lakers, Jerry Sloan has a clear goal and continues to send Hapning to play, breaking Lin Feng's mentality.
No need for Harpning to score many points, the only task is to destroy Lin Feng.
The third position, Andrei Kirilenko.
This guy used to be a Russian professional basketball player and served as a forward. His nickname was very loud, and old fans had heard of it. It was called "AK-47".
AK-47 is capable of both small forward and power forward positions. In 1999, he was selected by the Utah Jazz with the 24th overall pick in the first round.
Height 206cm, weight 102kg.
In 2004, he was selected to the NBA All-Star Team.
2005 NBA's annual block leader!
The 2006 NBA All-Defensive First Team!
2nd NBA All-Defensive Second Team!
Just looking at the honors of AK-47, you can know that he is a player who is good at defense.
In this game, Jerry Sloan did not play against the Lakers, because he knew very well that with his pick-and-roll tactics, it was difficult to compete with the smooth offense of the Lakers.
Playing against each other, the Jazz will lose badly.
Just play defense with the Lakers, use a tough defense to crush the Lakers' offensive rhythm.
Then he scored points for the team through skillful pick-and-roll tactics.
In the NBA, the coach Jerry Sloan was once known as the pick-and-roll master!
He is the patriarch of the pick-and-roll tactics. Playing the pick-and-roll, Jerry Sloan is definitely the best head coach in the active NBA league.
There is no fourth position yet.
Because it is a pick-and-roll tactic, of course a big player must be sent. The big man has more advantages in the pick-and-roll and the effect is more obvious.
As a result, the Jazz sent out the inside twin towers.
The first main center, Carlos Boozer.
In 2002, he was selected by the Cleveland Cavaliers with the 34th overall pick in the second round and joined the Utah Jazz in July 2004.
In the Jazz, Boozer was heavily used by Jerry Sloan. He is characterized by post-up singles and has a good pick-and-roll, which is highly valued by Jerry Sloan.
With a height of 207cm and a weight of 120.7kg, the tonnage is there. He can play as a power forward or as a center.
The second main force of the Twin Towers, Mehmet Okur, is a foreign player born in Yalova, Turkey.
In 2001, he was selected by the Detroit Pistons with the ninth overall pick in the second round. In 2004, he won the first NBA championship with the Pistons and was later traded to the Utah Jazz.
Height 211 cm, weight 113 kg.
Professional characteristics, although this guy is a center, he has a soft touch. Like Yao Ming, he has the ability to shoot long-range.
In some games, Okur is the center who can pull out and shoot three-pointers alone.
The Jazz's starting lineup is all weirdos.
This group of weirdos was very brave and fell behind with a big score of 2:0, but they still sent the Rockets home for fishing.
The two sides competed for the ball first, and Okur and Bynum competed for it.
Bynum took off a bit early, the ball was too high, he missed it, and was easily transferred to his own lineup by Okur.
"The result of the first scramble for the ball, Bynum took off a bit early, was taken down by Okur, and the Jazz were the first to attack the ball!"
The two commentators spoke.
On the Jazz side, the ball is in the hands of Deron.
While dribbling, Deron directed his teammates to move.
