Chapter 213: Makes You Desperate

Chamberlain scored inside to send the game into the second quarter, Jackson scored five straight points on a layup and three-pointers, and Chamberlain gave Millsap a hot pot on defense, and the Warriors stopped the Jazz with a 7-0 spurt to take a 35-26 lead.

The atmosphere in Oracle Arena is getting hotter, but unfortunately TNT went to broadcast the Eastern Green Shirts vs. Hawks game today, and fans in other states couldn't watch the exciting battle on the TV.

The game between the Green Shirts and the Hawks was beyond everyone's expectations, both experts and fans predicted before the game that the Green Shirts would sweep the Hawks in eighth place in the East 4-0, but the result was beyond their expectations, and now the Hawks have won one game, 1-2 behind the Green Shirts, and they played very early in this game, and now it is the fourth quarter, so far the Hawks have taken the lead, and it looks like they are going to win another game, so they can draw the Green Shirts 2-2.

The NBA in the playoffs is definitely star-studded, and the exciting news is coming one after another, and yesterday the results of the Coach of the Season came out, Hornets head coach Byron Scott beat his biggest rival, Celtics coach Doug Rivers, to win the Coach of the Season award, and earlier today, the league held a press conference and presented him with an award.

In this selection, Scott received 458 points, including 70 first-place votes, and the rules of the other awards were the same, with 125 voters including journalists and television hosts from the United States and Canada, and a first ballot received five points, a second vote received three points, and a third vote received one point.

Celtics coach Doc Rivers was second with 242 points (23 first-place votes). Rockets coach Adelman finished third with 193 points (17 first-place votes).

After receiving the award, Scott immediately gave his acceptance speech: "First of all, I would like to thank Mr. Sean for giving me this opportunity four years ago. His trust in me has allowed me to improve in this position. Also, I would like to thank Jeff Ball, our general manager, working with him has taken a lot of pressure off me and he has brought us a lot of good players. More importantly, I want to thank the entire coaching staff, who are the best in the NBA. Working with them has taught me many valuable lessons. I'm having a great time here every day and I'm going to keep going! ”

Scott became the first coach in Hornets history to win the award, leading the team to the Southwest Division regular season title this season and a 56-26 record, winning 18 more games than last year.

In January, he was also voted NBA Coach of the Month, a month in which the Hornets went 12-2. And after the All-Star break, the Hornets achieved the best record in the league.

In the 2005-06 season, Scott was also named a nominee for Coach of the Year. Last year, they had a 0-11 record against the Western Conference top three, the Mavericks, the Suns and the Spurs, and this season, they have an impressive 8-4 record against those three teams, including a 4-0 sweep of the Suns.

Yes, this is the fourth game, the fourth game between the Warriors and the Jazz, in the last game, the Warriors won the Jazz by an absolute margin, mainly because Deron went off the court too early, even if Sloan focused on protecting him, but he was still taken off the court by Billups before he finished the third quarter, and then the Jazz collapsed in the fourth quarter.

The Warriors led the Jazz 2-1, so now the Jazz are a little anxious, once the Warriors win again today, it will be 3-1, and they can all go fishing when the playoffs are still a best-of-five promotion system four years ago, so this game was extremely hot at the beginning.

Billups cut off Oku's ball, Jackson hit Kirilenko with the back of the ball in the high post, Chamberlain came out to help him cover, he rushed directly to the basket and jumped, resulting in a foul on Oku, who switched defenses, and after Bo fouled, he hit both free throws, and the Warriors extended their lead to 11 points.

Sloan had to call a timeout to replace Deron on the court, Fat Cillus didn't go down this time because Billups drove him crazy again, in fact, Billups is a man not a god, and he can't absolutely freeze Little Chubby Cill, but Fat Clay is not feeling well today, it is said that he is cold, according to rumors from the outside world, it is said that the Warriors fans adjusted the central air conditioning of the hotel where the Jazz players stayed, and the little chubby cheeks caused a wind chill.

Chubby now has an absolute bitter hatred for the Warriors, and he made a contribution as soon as he played, he cut off Jackson's ball to assist Brewer to score, and then grabbed the rebound himself and played a dragon layup to score, so that the Jazz scored 4 points in a row to catch up with the score.

Seeing this, Chamberlain was greatly depressed and asked Billups: "Didn't someone say that this kid has a cold, why is he so vigorous?" Is there a mistake in the news, in fact, this guy has taken aphrodisiacs? ”

Billups laughed and said, "It's okay, Z, I know very well what's going on, it's called returning to the light, you just let him be arrogant, I bet at most ten minutes, he'll wilt!" Seeing that Chamberlain didn't believe it, he quickly added, "Believe me, I studied medicine in college!" ”

"Veterinarian, huh?" West said suspiciously.

Billups said as a matter of course: "Yes, veterinarian, it's not better not to be enough, we're dealing with a bunch of beasts right now, so my vision is absolutely fine." ”

Nelson Sr. also called a timeout and replaced Ellis on the court again, and the energetic Ellis came on and immediately scored a three-pointer to fight back, and the Warriors maintained a 10-point lead at 40-30.

Boozer wanted to chase the score, but after receiving Delon's pass, he wanted to make an aerial relay, Chamberlain flew out from behind and split his head and face and flew him with the ball, Boozer was extremely angry, stood up and pushed Chamberlain and yelled: "You fucking did it on purpose, you deliberately hit me, I'm going to sue you damn executioner in court!" ”

The head coach's whistle immediately sounded mercilessly, and the technical foul was fouled, this is the Oracle Arena, not the Energy Center Gymnasium, so the coaches will not give face to the Jazz players.

The Warriors cut down three points again, Kirilenko decided to use his ability to save the team, but when he broke through to the basket, he was pulled down by Ellis, he only scored two points on one of two free throws, and after coming back, Ellis broke through Brewer's defensive throw and scored, and the Warriors stopped the Jazz again 45-31, and the whole momentum fell to the Warriors' side.

After a long period of inconclusive attack, Delon began to have problems with his body, and he only maintained his full concentration for five minutes, less than half the time Billups had guessed, and then his speed slowed down, and his face was pale and ugly, "as if he had fired a pistol ten times in a row." Jackson said with a sigh.

Even after the timeout, the Jazz's offense was still alive, the whole game was on the Warriors' side, the Jazz's offense was almost completely suppressed by the Warriors, the Jazz scored only 8 points in 8 minutes and 24 seconds, and the Warriors completed a 21-8 offensive run to take a 49-34 lead.

And that's not all, in the cheers of the fans at the scene, the Warriors are getting braver and braver, even if most of the main lineup has been off the court, the substitutes Barnes and Petrus are murderous, the latter came up straight to the basket and caused Oku to foul, two free throws for the Warriors to add points, the Jazz continued to lose on the Warriors' defense, and the Warriors maintained a double-digit lead at 53-42 at halftime.

At the beginning of the second half, the Jazz significantly strengthened their defense, Brewer and AK47 cut off the Warriors' ball one after another, and the Jazz chased the score to 47-57. After that, both offenses failed to score, Kirilenko hit a shot to narrow the gap to 8 points, and the Warriors were in a hurry, but Petrus made a pass error, and he wanted to have a delicate match with Ellis, but he ended up with the ball in the audience, and Boozer seized the opportunity to complete the basket dunk.

Seeing that the Jazz momentum was about to rise, Chamberlain immediately stabilized the Warriors with a layup on the inside, and then Chamberlain blocked DeLong's weak layup, and in turn, he completed 2+1 on Oku's head, and scored five points in a row to help the Warriors regain a double-digit lead at 54-40.

Jazz struggled to catch up with the pace of the Warriors, but Deron couldn't bear it, but Sloan was able to let him continue to fight on the court with an iron heart, Chamberlain couldn't stand it anymore, and accused Sloan: "Old man, don't be too ruthless, although this kid is not your son, you can't use him as an animal, be careful that he will retaliate against you in the future!" ”

Sloan's iron-blooded methods shocked the Jazz team, which is quite a bit of a feeling of success if it is not successful, just like the puppet army under the supervision of the Japanese devils during the War of Resistance Against Japan.

The Jazz fought back, Boozer and Oku cooperated with a low post and a high post to complete the connection to chase six points in a row, but just a little bit of catching up with the score, Ellis's three-point and layup scored five points in a row to fight back, Chamberlain also attacked the basket to score, and the Warriors forced the Jazz again 75-58.

Now Sloan is a little out of line, he can only replace DeLong off the court, the current little chubby cheeks no longer have the same high-spirited appearance as before, his face is bleak, his steps are staggering, and he seems to be able to die suddenly of the heart muscle at any time, it is estimated that Sloan also sees this clearly, and he is afraid that DeLong will make a point one, two, three, four, and the Jazz team will really be finished.

Deron was gone, and the Jazz's offensive and defensive problems could not be solved, and the Warriors were unmerciful here, and Chamberlain and Billups, who was back in the game, teamed up to chase the victory, and the Warriors led 80-58. Boozer made two free throws to close the deficit to 20 points, and the Warriors went from strength to strength, and Chamberlain's excellent play inside held the Jazz's momentum, and the Warriors took a large lead 84-65 after three quarters.

After entering the final quarter of the game, the Jazz fought back frantically, and the defense allowed the Warriors to score a point in 2 minutes and 50 seconds, but their offense was not very ideal, and it was difficult to go further after chasing the score to 69-84.

West cut Price off the ball and caused Korver to foul, Chamberlain scored four points with free throws, Oku ate an offensive foul at the critical moment, and Chamberlain seized the opportunity to hit the Jazz again, so that halfway through the fourth quarter, the Warriors firmly controlled the game 92-69.

Kirillenko smashed to the basket as if he was dead, made three consecutive fouls, and made 5 of 6 free throws to save a little momentum, but Chamberlain's subsequent big hat made the Jazz completely disarmed, and Sloan began to remove Boozer and Oku and other key players, and the game officially entered garbage time, and the Warriors finally beat the Jazz 105-79.

3-1, the Warriors got the match point, and the Jazz were in danger, but fortunately, the next home court was theirs!
