"Doot toot!" The referee blew the whistle for the end of the match.

The Kings won the opening game of the series 96-87 on their home court.

Hornacek's three-pointer made a pretty big impression on Davidson.

Hornacek made 3 of 5 three-pointers tonight, a whopping 60% shooting rate, but unfortunately, he shot too little......

If you shoot more than a dozen three-pointers and can still maintain a 60% shooting rate, then tonight's game may not have anything to do with the Kings.

This kind of super high-quality three-point shooter, Davidson is quite eye-catching, and he also wants to get such a top three-point shooter.

At the end of this season, the Kings will definitely have to improve their roster, and according to Davidson's plan, it is to spend a lot of money to bring in a reliable three-point shooter.

Hornacek is naturally the best target, but fools know that the Jazz can't sell Hornacek, they traded Jeff Malone for Hornacek, and they were counting on Hornacek to help the team go further in the playoffs, how could they sell it again......

Even if Davidson traded Richmond for Hornacek, he probably wouldn't be able to get it.

Unless it's a bus to exchange, but Davidson is obviously not stupid enough to that point.

In addition to Hornacek, Davidson also has a few goals in mind, and he is waiting for the end of the season to discuss with the team where the target is located to see if he can use the right chips to win it.

The next G2 is still the home court of the Kings, and this time it may be that Sloan realized that if he didn't go off the rails, he didn't have a chance to win the Kings at all, so their three-point shots in this game increased a lot.

Hornacek made eight three-pointers in this game, but alas, the shooting percentage was not as good as in the game, and he only hit three in the end......

Ma Long's performance in two consecutive games was not very good.

In the first game, he shot 6-of-15 from the field and made 6 free throws, and finally scored only 16 points, 8 rebounds and 4 assists.

In this second game, Malone had 18 points, 7 rebounds and 5 assists......

Obviously, such data is far less than his 25+10 data in the regular season.

The offensive end can only rely on mid-range shots to score, and the offensive efficiency naturally declines greatly.

The rebounding end was pulled to a high position by the big bus, and the rebounds were naturally a lot less.

If he continues to play like this, Malone will definitely be quite ugly in this series.

The next two games were the home of the Jazz, and what Davidson didn't expect was that Sloan directly came up with an unexpected lineup.

He actually directly promoted Ma Long to the fifth position......

Sloan's idea is very simple, if he continues to put Malone in the No. 4 position, Malone's offense and rebounding will be blocked, if he can defend the bus and make him lose both, then it is acceptable......

But the key to the problem now is that he can't prevent the bus, so he simply puts Malone in the No. 5 position to protect rebounds and guard the inside, which is definitely much stronger than Spencer.

As for the original No. 4 position, David Bennaught, who has good offensive firepower, is arranged.

Anyway, the bus's offense can't be prevented, and the bus is not good at anti-projection, so it is quite a suitable choice to replace Bennott, who is strong in attack and weak in defense.

This change immediately had a pretty good effect, and Sloan was the coach praised by Daddy Chuck in the end, and the lineup layout ability was first-class.

Davidson's side can only respond to all changes with the same, mainly because Davidson has no cards at hand to restrain the Jazz, all the strongest cards in his hand are placed on the court, and there are no players on the bench who can take them.

On the court, Davidson watched a little worried, and tonight the Jazz's three-point shooting was opened again.

Hornacek's three-pointer at this point is a lot and accurate tonight, and the outside blocking and dismantling he and Stockton play are quite threatening.

Richmond's defense was very good, but probably because of his age, he didn't have a lot of pick-and-roll ability, allowing Hornacek to shoot a lot of three-pointers tonight.

The Jazz's various blocking and pick-and-roll tactics have taught Davidson a lot, and it just so happens that the next third player is a No. 1 player who has both offense and defense.

When the time comes, we can follow the example of the Jazz and let this third natal player play outside blocking with Richmond, which is expected to play a good effect.

Snow's strength is good, but the embarrassment is that he has no basket and is not suitable for playing outside double blocking.

……

"Boom." The three-pointers of Stockton and Hornacek were like a series of cannons, and all kinds of shots made Davidson frown.

When the referee blew the whistle for the end of the game, the Kings lost G3 with a score of 97-101 on the Jazz's away road!

In fact, the king felt good tonight, but the opponent's three points were really a bit perverted.

Davidson didn't expect the Jazz to shoot so wildly three-pointers, which is simply unimaginable in the league right now.

However, Davidson didn't care much about losing this game, which confirmed his idea of developing the Kings' three-point team.

The performance of the bus in these three games can be said to be perfect, and the offensive end is completely inexplicable.

In the words of experts and fans from all walks of life, that is the only person in this league who can prevent the bus, and the only one is the bus itself!

Because of the bus, the other side of the ocean also broadcast this round of the Western Conference semifinals live, attracting many domestic fans to watch.

Domestic CCTV broadcasts NBA games, there is no need to pay broadcast fees to the NBA, I have to say, Stern's abacus is quite loud, if he opened his mouth with CCTV to ask for broadcast fees, it is estimated that CCTV can use a big broom to beat him out......

The top performance of the bus has made domestic fans more and more proud to pay more and more attention to the NBA, and the number of fans has directly shown a soaring trend.

After three games, the bus was able to score an average of 31 points per game, with an average shooting rate of 55% per game, which is completely an inside-level shooting rate.

It is undoubtedly quite a terrible thing to be able to use the offensive style of the outside and hit the shooting percentage of the inside.

Especially in the first two games, the duel with Ma Long, the league's No. 1 forward, allowed the bus to snatch the title of No. 1 forward directly from Ma Long's head.

It has been proven that both Barkley and Malone are the underdogs in the head-to-head showdown on the bus.

Many people evaluate the bus as an epoch-making No. 4 player, and this is not wrong at all.

Because the NBA has never had a No. 4 player like a bus before......

Obviously, he looks like a meat shield-type coolie power forward, but he has a top-notch projection skill on the outside, which makes people roll their eyes.

It's like Jordan becoming a rebounding monster, which makes people feel out of place.

……

In the next fourth game, the Jazz failed to continue their good luck this time, their three-pointer missed the game, and finally lost to the Kings in this crucial match point battle, giving the Kings a 3-1 lead.
