Chapter 240: What the hell are you afraid of?!

(Chapter 2, Chapter 3 at a later date)

When the Jazz and Warriors players continued to play in the fourth quarter, there were 9 minutes left in the game, originally according to the table of bench players on both sides, the Jazz team was slightly superior, although the Warriors players were very good, but after all, this team was missing a second-in-command, Tim Hardaway is still lying in the hospital bed, in this case, it is really thicker than the real person, the Warriors' players are really not bad, but the bench players are indeed worse, even after coming to the playoffs, David Wesley's table so far isn't very satisfying, but Elliott's table isn't bad.

So the reason why the two teams battled in advance was because the Warriors' head coach Nelson Sr. called a timeout before and was ready to be replaced, so at the end of the third quarter, it was only a 3-point lead, and after a three-minute bench battle, the Jazz's lead returned to 5 points, 95-9O, but such a point difference is just a gap between two offensive hits for a team like the Warriors, so the gap between the Jazz and the Warriors is basically not a gap. Even the Jazz players know that.

And the first offense at the end of the timeout, the Warriors successfully used Chris Mullin's magic shot to hit two points, and after a very good team cooperation, Webber under the basket who caught the ball at the free throw line and broke through with the ball was very clever and smashed the ball into Chris Mullin's hand, Russell, who had been paying attention to the pj Brown to help defend Webb, did not fully notice Mullin's running position, facing the league's most capable superstar at the time. Russell, on the other hand, is a bit inexperienced, and this is his first trip to the playoffs, after all.

"Brian, don't be discouraged. That's not your fault."

Looking at Brian Russell, who was almost played by Chris Mullin, Stockton said helplessly, Russell really can't be blamed for the Warriors' offense just now, according to common sense, Webber's successful defense of breaking through PJ Brown should definitely not be an outside player to assist in defense, it should definitely be an inside player to assist in defense, but Malone was pinned down by Owens at that time and couldn't come back at all. As for Bryan Russell, he's not the Russell of the Celtics, and the fact that he's able to come back and make up for Webb to pass the ball has proven that he's working hard to get the ball in place. It's just that for Webb, the interior line who can play a quasi-triple-double JÙ in the first round of the series, the Jazz team is really helpless, and a center who can break through, shoot and pass the ball is really difficult to defend, which broke Webb from the last round of the Admiral even on the offensive end. There is also no way to see Webb's offense. You know, David Robinson is one of the strongest players in the league in terms of single defense.

"This team is really amazing"

In the end, Lin Han also shook his head and looked at the Warriors' bench, Lin Han actually understood Jerry Sloan's somewhat conservative thoughts at this time, with Russell and PJ Brown's defensive ability, the Warriors' Chris Mullin and Webber can do whatever they want, if they really want to remove these two, what if the Jazz team can't make a bad defensive end and really collapse? Even if Lin Han goes to play inside, he can really strengthen the team's defense in terms of co-defense. But if Lynham appears at the power forward position, the Jazz will push Chris Mullin to the power forward position. Pull directly outside the three-point line, Lin Han will go out with him? If Chris Mulling doesn't attack and is there to contain Lin Han and let Sprewell come, what should he do? If Lin Han plays center, the Warriors will also pull Chris Webb outside, will Lin Han go out with him?

One of the disgusting things about this group of players of the Warriors is that they are not only able to hold the ball and pass the ball, but most of the players are also very accurate, and the offensive range is really wide, and if they are really released, they can really shoot, just look at Chris Mullin's average shooting rate of close to 6o% per game in the playoffs, although the Spurs are not very good offensively, but the defense is really good, in addition to Mullin, Webb's shooting rate is also over 55%, Owens' shooting rate is also over 5o%, even Avery Johnson, who has the worst shot, has a shooting rate of 52%, and Sprewell, who has a tumor attribute, has the lowest shooting rate, only 44%, but this guy has always been the most hated player for the Warriors right now, and in the face of the Spurs, he attracts the hatred of the entire Spurs team, and the 44% shooting rate is not low when he takes nearly 2o shots per game.

Therefore, when he thinks of this, Lin Han really thinks that the Warriors team is really as disgusting as the old Nelson, although it is difficult for such a team to fight for the championship, but any team will be very helpless and speechless when they encounter them.

Of course, although the Warriors caught up by 2 points, the Jazz team is still ahead, so except for Ma Long, the Jazz players on the court are still normal, even if Stockton and Lin Han, who were disgusted by the old Nelson for almost a game, are now normal, especially Lin Han, after scoring 48 points in the third quarter, although Lin Han knows that he is indeed consuming a lot on the offensive end now, the offensive efficiency after that will definitely not be as high as before, but if the old Nelson continues to let him go, He really scored a sixty points to make this old man disgusting and disgusting, the players who scored 6o points in the NBA playoffs in addition to Jordan's 63 points belong to Elgin Baylor's 61 points in the finals, if Lin Han really scored a sixty points, this old guy will definitely not be in a good mood.

"Hmph, I'm going to see who's disgusting in the end."

When he thought of this, Lin Han walked to the front court with Malone after looking at PJ Brown who was about to catch the ball on the baseline and Stockton, at this time Lin Han's heart was really full of fighting spirit.

It's just obvious that Lin Han's thoughts are still too sweet, since the old Nelson dares to let Lin Han go, how could he not take this into account, although Lin Han's table in this game is out of his expectations, and the score is about to run 6o points, in fact, in old Nelson's expectations, when he is about to hit the Jazz team. In this game, Lin Han's score was more than 4o points, but it would definitely not exceed 5o points.

"Hey, are you in the wrong place? The person you're looking for is over there."

When Lin Han and Malone came to the frontcourt. One of the two stood at the three-point line on the right, and the other silently went to the free throw line to wait to catch Stockton, and when Lin Han stood on the 45-degree three-point line on the right side, what made Lin Han a little speechless was that Owens, who was supposed to defend Malone, actually appeared between him and Malone, although he was still standing by Malone's side, but fools could see who the player Owens was against. This guy is facing someone else or Lin Han!

"Boy, I don't need you to remind me, I didn't find the wrong person"

Just after Lin Han finished speaking with a puzzled face. Malone didn't know what the situation was, when Stockton dribbled to the frontcourt, he saw that Malone, who had been strictly guarded before, actually had a lot of offensive space at this time, and Lin Han, who had been extremely ample in offensive space, was facing Lin Han at this time while almost the entire Warriors' defense was shrinking. That makes the Jazz point guard. The league's perhaps top IQ player was also a little confused for a while.

Although Stockton looked a little confused at this time, but as an instinct of organizing guards, he still chose to hoist the ball in his hand to Malone who was standing at the free throw line at this time, and after Malone received the ball, he was going to pass the ball before all the Warriors players pounced, but after waiting for a long time, none of the Warriors players came up, and he got the ball at the free throw line. With the exception of Avery Johnson standing next to him, all the other Warriors players were locked inside.

The Warriors actually used Avery Johnson to defend him? Owens was also standing not far away. But the person this guy is obviously targeting is Lin Han!

And looked at Avery Johnson, who was more than 2o centimeters shorter than himself, Malone's face really changed and changed, the old guy Nelson played him so much in the first three quarters, and he didn't want him to catch the ball, although Malone's score was very little faceless, but that at least proved that he Malone, the most threatening player for the Jazz team, for Malone, he could also find a source of happiness, now well, the Warriors actually used Avery Johnson, a third-class cripple, to defend him closely, What does that mean? It's clear that he looks down on his shooting, or that Malone's shooting doesn't pose any threat to the Warriors, as long as Malone doesn't break through, he can shoot as much as he wants.

When I thought of this, as the Jazz player with the best chance on the court now, Malone almost didn't look at anyone else at this time, and his face was extremely ugly in the face of Avery Johnson's defense, and he directly pulled up a mid-range shot from the free throw line, and when this mid-range shot was thrown out and smashed the blue neck, Malone, who was still angry just now, was already a little dumbfounded at this time, and the Jazz fans on the scene saw that the leading player of their team was in their most stable position. When facing a defensive player who was 2o centimeters shorter than him actually hit the iron like this, the Jazz fans who were already extremely crazy just now all calmed down in the sound of Malone's iron.

"That ball was just thrown by Karl? Deceptive, right? It looks like it's so crooked that the ball is smashed out of the side basket? ”

"Now Carl's hand is not good, very bad, if it were usually he would never throw such a mid-range!"

When there was a silence, the Jazz fans in the audience were in an uproar, and Malone, who failed to shoot and was grabbed by Mullin, was looking down at his hands at this time.

"Carl, don't stay still, defend yourself!"

When Malone was staying, Avery Johnson, who was still defending Malone just now, had already rushed to the front at this time, and Mullin's pass had already come to the Warriors' 1.8o point guard, although Lin Han used the omnipresent prediction to know Mullin's passing route to chase Avery Johnson at the moment of Mullin's pass, and even used the skills to move forward, but Avery Johnson's height is really not high, but the degree of these short players is really not slow, And what made Lin Han even more speechless was that he was chasing Avery Johnson in front, and Avery Johnson and his back were only followed by another player, Sprewell. As the defense of Lin Han's Sprewell, Lin Han predicted that Mullin's pass was activated early to chase Avery Johnson, although Sprewell was shocked by Lin Han's reflexes. But his reaction was also not slow, after Lin Han started, he also chased after him, and now the situation is that Lin Han is alone with Avery Johnson and Sprewell's middle defenders!

Although Lin Han yelled at Malone when he started to chase Avery Johnson, Lin Han was not sure whether this guy could return to the defense.

I have to say that Lin Han was still prescient, Ma Long's return defense was indeed not in place, not to mention not in place. After this guy heard Lin Han's big drink, he turned around and looked up to see that Lin Han, Johnson and Sprewell had already walked away, and it was not Malone who chased after him at this time, but Stockton. It's just that this defender is just too far away.

So when Lin Han took two steps to the free throw line and saw Avery Johnson jump up and use Chamberlain's locking block to predict that this guy was jumping up and preparing to pass the ball from behind, Lin Han didn't even jump, but immediately moved sideways to block the ball between Avery Johnson and Sprewell, which just made Lin Han depressed. It seems that after feeling Lin Han's action. Avery Johnson's right hand, which was about to pass the ball, turned into a layup with a direct flick of the wrist.

And this is the most speechless thing about one defense and two defenses, Chamberlain's locking block is a single defense skill, maybe the strongest one-on-one defense skill, but if it is one defense two, if Avery Johnson is not mentally retarded or a rookie, Lin Han's obvious prediction action If he can't see it, then he is really blind, and if he sees it and continues to pass the ball to Sprewell, then he is really an idiot.

So at this time, Lin Han saw Avery Johnson, who had just made a successful layup, with a smile on his face, and Lin Han's face also became very ugly.

Lin Han really didn't expect to restart after the fourth quarter. The Warriors actually began to pinch him, and they didn't expect Malone's mid-range shooting to be so outrageous. Not to mention that Lin Han didn't expect it, even Ma Long himself didn't think of it.

And when the Jazz failed in the last offense and continued to attack this time, there was only a one-point lead left, and Lin Han continued to be choked by the Warriors, Stockton glanced at Malone, and when he didn't have to block the Jazz's leading players who had a lot of shooting opportunities, with Stockton's character, he had already passed the ball to Malone at this time, but this time he looked at the sidelines and there was still a point difference. When the Jazz's leading point guard gritted his teeth and saw Avery Johnson standing at the free throw line next to Malone who was asking for the ball, Stockton directly pulled up and stood outside the three-point line to shoot a jumper, and after seeing Stockton, a player whose first priority is passing, shot with such a defense, Lin Han and Ma Long's faces also changed again, Lin Han was a little surprised, and Ma Long's face was not very good-looking, it should be said that it was quite ugly.

However, with Stockton's empty three-point shot, there was still a one-point difference to four points, but although the three-point shot was hit at this time, Stockton was not happy at all, because he knew very well that his score was definitely not the key to this game, if Lin Han and Malone could not score, then it was impossible for the Jazz to win this game in the face of the Warriors with strong offense.

"Crazy, really crazy game, it looks like the Warriors' defense in the fourth quarter has changed dramatically! Lin Han, who was originally weak in defense, was surrounded by Warriors defenders at this time, and Malone, who had been defended extremely tightly and was strictly guarded for more than three quarters, was actually released by the Warriors at this time, and the old Nelson made a huge reversal in the team's defensive strategy in the fourth quarter! ”

When the game continued to start in the fourth quarter, although the Jazz were still leading for the time being, but when the Warriors' defensive strategy changed, the Jazz's discomfort soon appeared, when the Jazz needed Stockton's score to maintain the lead of the game, this time was definitely the most dangerous time for the Jazz, and at this time Collins on the sidelines was also extremely nervous at this time, and Larry Bird on the side was also shocked at this time, constantly looking at the old coach of the Warriors sitting on the sidelines.

"Is that what Nelson Sr. wants? Pinch Malone for three quarters, let go of Malone when he suppresses Ma Long's offensive state to the lowest point, and then pinch Lin Han when Lin Han's offensive momentum reaches the highest point? ”

When he thought of this, Larry Bird looked a little unnatural. With Lin Han's character, when his offensive momentum reached its peak, let alone two people and three people defending him. Even if the opponent's whole team defends him, this guy may not dare to force the attack, if Lin Han really faces the Warriors' defense of the whole team at this time and forcibly attacks, then with Lin Han's offensive efficiency at this time, the final result is unimaginable.

"This old guy is really playing, this is to make Lin Han and Ma Long guilty of losing in the first game, this guy is too ruthless"

When I think of this. Larry Bird looked at Lin Han and Ma Long, who kept asking for the ball from Stockton on the court, one was defended by the opponent's whole team, and the other was pinched by the opponent for three quarters. There was no offensive state at all, if it weren't for Stockton, who had already seen something at this time, so although he didn't attack well, he still forcibly took over the game. I'm afraid the playoff nightmare of Malone and Lin Han is about to begin.

"Although in the pre-match period. Nelson Sr. said that this game will not do too much defensive arrangement for Lin Han and Malone on the defensive end, but I have to say that so far in this game, Nelson Sr.'s defense of the Jazz is almost perfect, and the perfect fourth quarter has put the Jazz's two-level superstars into an offensive slump, and has changed the Jazz's offensive play"

Old Nelson's tactics in this game are not only disgusting Ma Long and Lin Han or pit Ma Long and Lin Han, but more importantly, even if they can't pit Ma Long and Lin Han. In the fourth quarter, the Jazz's tactical play on the offensive end will be completely changed, and now it will be Stockton who is carrying the team's offense.

The Jazz players were really uncomfortable playing on the court at this time. Old Nelson's tactics really made the Jazz players on the court extremely uncomfortable, Malone and Lin Han frantically asked for the ball, but Stockton just didn't pass, the team's offense was all carried out by Stockton, who was deliberately let go, and Stockton's offensive ability, even if his shooting is really good, he can shoot the first ball, the second ball but it is difficult to hit it all the time, this guy's career high score is only 34 points, although he has offensive ability, but he is not a scorer who can continue to attack and continue to score, Let him and the Warriors score, Lin Han can score with the Warriors for three quarters, but Stockton can't, let alone three quarters, even if it is three minutes, it will wilt directly.

In fact, when the fourth quarter came to within six minutes, the Jazz, who had been leading the whole game, actually reversed the score 1o2-1 after Malone hit a mid-range shot.

And when the Warriors reversed the score for the first time in the fourth quarter, Jerry Sloan, who was standing and commanding on the sidelines at this time, seemed to feel that his last atrium was broken, and the same former NBA best coach, Jazz assistant coach Phil Johnson's face changed completely at this time, for the Jazz, the way of playing when the score is leading is completely different from the way of playing when the score is behind!

And when this official timeout came, when the Jazz team came down from the court, at this time, the Jazz bench, not to mention the faces of these players who came off the court, looked very bad, even the Jazz benches sitting on the sidelines, the whole game was leading, and in the end there were six minutes left to be reversed, which is absolutely unacceptable.

Even before that, Lin Han was ready to be disgusted to death by Maddie, but in the end, thinking of the character of 2o points that time, Lin Han still suppressed the anger in his heart.

However, Lin Han, who returned to the bench, still took the towel from Aaron Williams and threw it into his seat, at this time, like Lin Han, Ma Long's, his face was also not very good-looking, even if he was stupid, he was born in the past three minutes, and he still made it very clear that he and Lin Han were cheated by the old guy of the Warriors, and they really had no way to do it after being cheated at this time.

What tactics the old Nelson played in this game was already very clear at this time, the Jazz players knew, and Jerry Sloan naturally knew, so when the Jazz players returned to their seats after this timeout, they all didn't speak, waiting for Jerry Sloan's final arrangement.

At this time, Jerry Sloan naturally knew that the team had reached an extremely dangerous situation at this time, and if he didn't change it, he would really lose at that time. If Jerry Sloan knew that his tactical play in this game was not the best, at least not the best for the Jazz, but at least the team was still ahead. As long as the team can win, even if there is a problem with his style of play, there is no problem.

And now, the team is behind, so his style of play has to change, but how to change this tactic in the end? Jerry Sloan really doesn't have any confidence.

Jerry Sloan is very afraid of failure, and even more so than these Jazz players. Because he knew he was carrying the team with the best record in the history of the league, the team that was called the all-time number one team at the end of the regular season, although it was a huge honor. But it's also a tremendous pressure.

Even this kind of pressure has made Jerry Sloan a little breathless in recent times, it would be good that the team could have won all the time, and he could pretend not to see any doubts, and if the team lost. So what are the consequences? Jerry Sloan couldn't have imagined it.

So when I think about it. Jerry Sloan's expression has been changing, and when he saw that his head coach's face was constantly changing at this time but had been silent, the Jazz players were also a little helpless at this time, and I have to say that the head coach who has been coaching the Jazz for five years is indeed not a qualified head coach of the No. 1 team in history.

"Coach, what the hell are you afraid of!"

Just when many Jazz players were looking at Jerry Sloan in their hearts and feeling a little helpless, at this time, Lin Han actually stood up directly from his position and yelled at Jerry Sloan in the stunned eyes of all the Jazz players.

And Lin Han's roar obviously interrupted Jerry Sloan's cranky thoughts at this time.

"What the hell am I afraid of?"

However, after Jerry Sloan came to his senses, he looked at Lin Han's angry but somewhat disappointed eyes at this time, and the other Jazz players were also extremely disappointed. At this point, Jerry Sloan felt like he was a bit of a failure.

As the head coach of the team, he actually made the players of the team show such eyes.

Of course, after seeing Jerry Sloan wake up yelled at himself. Lin Han was really helpless at this time, he didn't think about rushing at Jeris Long, in fact, as long as this game can be won, this round of the series can be won, he doesn't care about Jeris Longyue's cautiousness, no one stipulates that the head coach of the championship team must be the head coach of the championship level, and the head coach of the championship team has zĂ i shortcomings This is not a new thing, but it is obvious that now the Jazz team has no way to win because of the head coach of the team.

So after Lin Han's yell, although the other players of the Jazz team were surprised, no one said that there was anything wrong with Lin Han, and even Stockton showed an appreciative look at this time, if it wasn't for him, the Jazz point guard would have already taken the lead.

However, at this time, although Jerry Sloan was not staying, his face was still changing and silent, and everyone was waiting for the final choice of the head coach of this team.

"I see"

When Jerry Sloan looked at the faces of all the Jazz players several times, the head coach of the Jazz team finally made the final choice, and after Jerry Sloan made the final decision, the Jazz players, including Lin Han, also looked relieved.

Jerry Sloan is a very conservative head coach, but that doesn't mean he's a mediocre man without any ability, since he has chosen to change, then there's nothing to fear, and since the Jazz players are willing to go crazy once, then he has nothing to fear.

And when the timeout ended, when the Jazz team's players changed dramatically, looking at the Jazz players who returned to the court, the Jazz fans on the sidelines were all exclaimed.

"Phil, do you think we can win this game?"

When watching these Jazz players walk to the court, looking at their backs, Jerry Sloan said with a sigh, his expression was a little gray at this time, and it could be seen that the decision just now was a little difficult for him.

"I don't know if the team will win this game, but one thing I know is that even if the team loses, the players won't blame you"

Looking at his junior brother, Phil Johnson also said with a smile, and after Phil Johnson finished speaking, Jerry Sloan was stunned again and then fell silent.

"Phil, I think you're more suitable than me to be the head coach of this team"

After a brief pause, Jerry Sloan gave his friend a deep look and said, only then Phil Johnson just smiled and shook his head.

"If I were the head coach of this team, then this team would have been in chaos a long time ago"

Thinking about the team's birth this season, Phil Johnson finally looked at Jerry Sloan and said with a smile, although he is also the best head coach in the NBA, although he is indeed more open than Jerry Sloan, but he is not as ruthless as Jerry Sloan, just that Jerry Sloan decisively took Jeff Malone and let Lin Han get on the horse, he can't do it.

Jerry Sloan isn't the best head coach for the Jazz team that everyone imagined, and he's not a good one.

Of course, at this time, Jerry Sloan and Phil Johnson were a little sighing on the sidelines, and Lin Han, who came to the court, did not have any sighs at this time.

"Old fellow, I'm going to see if you're going to disgust you or I'm going to disgust you, huh"

Lin Han, who returned to the court, was full of sneers when he looked at the old man in front of the Warriors bench. (To be continued......)
