The Jazz were double-killed by the Trail Blazers on the road!

Just when everyone thought that the Trail Blazers had a chance to sweep the Jazz and advance, the Jazz gave them a "surprise"!

In the Western Finals G3, the Jazz narrowly defeated the Trail Blazers with a score of 101:99, and Hornacek came to the end with a super long three-point shot two meters away from the three-point line, directly killing the Trail Blazers!

This made Richard a little uncomfortable......

He never expected that Hornacek would act as the savior of the Jazz in this series.

Speaking of which, Richard really hasn't taken Hornacek seriously all along, and in his opinion, Hornacek may not be much better than the old Curry......

But it was Hornacek, whom he despised that gave Richard a solid lesson!

Originally, Richard's plan was to sweep the Jazz and then advance to the Finals......

In Richard's view, if there is one team in the league today that can sweep the Jazz in a series, it is probably the Trail Blazers.

Even the Bulls will never be able to sweep the Jazz......

This is not to say that the Trail Blazers are stronger than the Bulls, but that the Trail Blazers' lineup restrains the Jazz.

After all, the Bulls can't find a super defensive lineup like the Obenra combination to suppress Malone's play......

The Bulls can pose a threat to Malone, that is, a Rodman, but Rodman's defense is not even comparable to the current Big Ben.

……

If the Jazz reach the Finals, the Bulls will definitely win the Finals in the end, but it will certainly not be so easy, it has been proved that the Bulls have met the Jazz twice in the Finals, both with a score of 4:2, and they cannot form a crushing advantage by playing the Jazz.

Not so with the current pioneers, Sir Tenk!

If it weren't for Hornacek acting as a savior, Richard would have at least 60% chance of sweeping the Jazz and advancing to the Finals!

……

G3 was pulled back by the Jazz, and G4 were not so lucky.

Hornacek can't be a savior forever, and if he continues to be a savior this time, then he shouldn't be called Hornacek, but Jordan......

In this G4, the Trailblazers won by 12 points again, limiting Malone's score to less than 20 points!

If Malone insists on scoring, in fact, scoring 20 points in the game is not something difficult for him to achieve, and it is a big deal to force a shot......

But now that it's a crucial game like the Western Finals, no fool will reduce the team's overall shooting percentage because they want to brush up on more data.

When he can't find the right time to make a shot, Malone will pass the ball back to Stockton, who will then split the ball.

……

The Trail Blazers already have a 3-1 lead, and it is only a matter of time before they eliminate the Jazz.

In this current situation, no one believes that the Jazz can have a chance to turn around, and even the most hardcore Jazz fans are in despair at the moment......

The strength of the Trail Blazers is too strong, the lineup is too good, and compared to last season, the extent of their strength improvement is simply terrifying!

Last season's Trail Blazers, even if they didn't look at it, also reached the Western Conference semifinals, but if it weren't for some bullshit, they might have been jazzed!

And now, the situation has indeed been completely reversed, and the team that was hammered has become the Jazz!

Is Jazz not strong enough? No, today's Jazz, judging from their entry into the Western Conference finals from the bottom half of the playoffs, their strength is still one of the best in the West!

But it can't stand the Trailblazers' lineup Sir Tenke, and the Trailblazers' strength has increased by a terrifying amount!

Both teams can be called the strength of the Western Conference dominance, and it is the lineups of both sides that will affect the outcome of this series......

……

Speaking of which, in fact, Richard didn't have a long-term vision, and when he first entered the league, he thought of creating a team that restrained the Jazz.

The newcomers he chose at the beginning were actually all coincidences.

The Obenra combination, in which O Jr. and Rashid are normally Trail Blazers players, did not have much influence on Richard.

And Big Ben is a player trained by Richard himself, and he took it with a second-round pick, not to restrain the Jazz.

It can be seen that this may also be a kind of fate, Richard did not think about the long-term situation, and made a lineup that can beat the Jazz......

……

At the same time, the situation in the eastern duel is similar to that in the western duel, and it is a one-sided situation.

The Knicks are naturally not the opponent of the Bulls, they are lucky, and they have been on the next gram one after another, but in the face of the hard stubble Bulls, they still failed to continue their good luck in the end, and the current 3:1 score is about to be eliminated.

Now that the two divisional finals are 3:1, many fans have begun to pay attention to which side can win first!

Judging from the current situation, the most likely thing is that the two sides will eliminate their opponents with a score of 4:1......

……

G5 in the West, home of the Trail Blazers.

There is no need for Richard to shout, the players are already patting their chests and promising to completely solve the Jazz in this game!

Because this game is the best chance to tackle the Jazz......

If the Jazz are not killed in this game, the next game will be the home court of the Jazz, and no one knows if there will be any accidents, which will lead to the series being dragged into a life-and-death situation.

Once it enters the life and death situation, if anyone in the Jazz team jumps out to act as a savior, Richard and the Trail Blazers will probably have no place to cry.

……

With the referee's whistle, the Jazz's life-and-death game officially began.

If they win, they have a chance to live, and if they lose, they will be completely dead......

Obviously, the Trail Blazers are not ready to give the Jazz a chance to survive, and the Trail Blazers started directly at the beginning, without giving the Jazz a chance to breathe.

The Jazz team, because Malone and Stockton are both on the court at the same time, can maximize their power.

So Sloan will try to have both of them on the court at the same time as much as possible......

But this also creates a problem, even if these two are well-known iron men, it is impossible to play the full 48 minutes of the game.

There will always be time for them to rest at the same time, and this time is the opportunity for the Trail Blazers bench to shine.

In tonight's game, Curry Sr. only played 11 minutes, had a performance of 3 of 5 three-point shots, and scored 9 points alone, helping the Trail Blazers get a rather terrible point advantage.

Sloane felt quite helpless in his heart......

He knows very well that the Jazz's best chance to win the championship has disappeared!

In the past two seasons, it is definitely their best chance to compete for the championship, but with Richard entering the league, their championship is completely yellow......

In the future, it will be difficult for them to retain the position of the hegemon in the west.

The Spurs and Lakers are gradually growing, and with the Trail Blazers in front of them, the Jazz have completely withdrawn from the stage of competing for Western dominance.

"Doot toot!" The referee blew the whistle at the end of the game, and the Trail Blazers beat the Jazz at home, with a final score of 110:89, a crazy 21-point victory!

The referee's whistle also announced that the Jazz's championship dream was completely shattered, and it would be difficult for them to have a chance to reach the Western Conference finals for at least the next two decades.

The Trail Blazers shouted wildly on the court, beating their arch-rival Jazz, and the excitement even made them forget about the upcoming Finals.
