"Huh!"

This time, the Pelicans are continuous three-point shots, and the momentum is even more played, and all 5 people on the court today have scored, all of them have a table, the Pelicans are the whole team outbreak, and the Jazz don't seem to be able to stop it.

Blocking one and the second, blocking the second and the third, this Luo Teng actually had a convulsion today, Quinn Pierce originally thought that Rodney Hood could comprehensively suppress Rodney Hood, but he didn't expect that Rodney Hood's ball quotient had risen too much recently, and he actually deceived Rodney Hood easily, and turned around and put such a deadly cold arrow with a big heart.

The Jazz are really uncomfortable right now, the game at this time is completely different from their style, and the Pelicans are completely in control of the rhythm.

As a result, although Hayward then led the team to counterattack, Hayward was scoring when he was on the Pelicans' side.

Moreover, the Pelicans relied on fast break to score, which was much more efficient than the Jazz playing halftime, and for a while the Jazz had no way to stabilize the situation.

At the end of the first quarter, the Pelicans actually led the Jazz by as many as 12 points from 39 to 27.

The Jazz scored 27 points in the first quarter, and they averaged 108 points per game, but the Pelicans scored 37 points in the first quarter, and the obvious shooting convulsions were unbearable.

In the first quarter, the Pelicans' shooting rate was as high as 60%, and 90% of the team's offense was layups and three-point shots, and there were only two mid-range shots.

At the end of the first quarter, Hayward walked to the bench swearing, fearing that the team's young players would suffer.

At this time, the Jazz had a big psychological gap and couldn't accept it, the love was very bad, and Barkley and Kenny Smith on the sidelines also felt a little unacceptable.

Because the Jazz's defeat seemed too light, at this time Barkley complained where:

"The Jazz's defense was so poor today, they gave the other side too many chances, and that's just a sin. The Jazz shouldn't have defended so badly. ”

Barkley is complaining about the defense, where Kenny Smith is complaining about the offense:

"The Pelicans have a high shooting percentage right now, but I can guarantee that they can't always be so high, they play well in the first quarter, and the shooting percentage will definitely come down later, and the Jazz are not playing badly now, it's just that the Pelicans are too lucky now."

Where these two guys complained, Webber shook his head to the side and retorted to the two of them:

"Hey. Brother, there is nothing in this world that is completely unreasonable. ”

"Why are the Jazz poor defensively, because they have a bad mentality, because they are not prepared enough, why the Pelicans have a high shooting rate, because the tactics are more right, the team has this kind of tactical thinking, a qiē seems to be accidental, but there must be inevitable factors behind it."

Reggie Miller also said at this time:

"If you can't control the jazz. Let yourself stabilize and throw away the burden of being an aristocratic team, they will definitely not be able to defend well today, and they will not defend well. The Pelicans will definitely also attack well. ”

"Now the Jazz have to keep their eyes peeled."

Reggie Miller and Webb both saw different things because of their different perspectives.

In China, Director Zhang also thinks that Jazz is not playing well:

"Today's game is a Western Conference final, and it starts with the game. The Pelicans have a clear banner to speed up, and the Pelicans have both strong destructive power and passing ability in the offensive and defensive transitions because of Li Feng. Combined with Kelly's long-range shooting ability and adaptability, they have a strong foundation for playing fast. ”

"And the Jazz side, they are very afraid of the opponent playing fast, their main lineup is very slow, so that once the Pelicans are fast, it will be very Jazz, Jazz's most powerful interior twin towers do not restrain the Pelicans, this is a huge contrast, the Jazz's own offense is difficult to open, but at the same time it is difficult to defend the opponent's offense, this is difficult."

Director Zhang also has his own opinions on the situation of the two teams in the first quarter, and at the same time, Pelicans fans and Jazz fans also launched a larger-scale scolding war on the Internet.

Both groups are huge, and once the debate starts, it is universal.

At this time, Quinn Pierce calmed his players while reminiscing about the Pelicans' offense today.

The Pelicans' offense today is indeed a performance moment, fast, destructive, and the big man also has three-point shots.

However, in Quinpeires' view, the Pelicans' fast ball today has weaknesses, the Pelicans are too weak on the outside, if you want to play a strong fast offense, you must rely on strong outside firepower, this firepower is not enough to rely on Li Feng alone, and the Pelicans' defensive ability in the fast ball is also insufficient, and neither Rotten nor Thornton can pick up the gaps for Li Feng's outside defense.

Now the Pelicans can play so well, because they have problems with their defense, and it is also because the Pelicans offense has played extraordinarily.

Now that the Pelicans have played out, they need to have a choice, whether to let Li Feng play, or let the Pelicans play the whole team, if this problem is placed in the last quarter of the game, Quinn Pierce decisively asked all 5 people in the court to defend Li Feng, but now it is only the second quarter, he decisively chooses to strangle other points first and relax the defense of Li Feng a little.

For the average head coach, it is simply inconceivable for them to give up their defense against Li Feng.

But for Quinn Pierce, it was a matter of course, and he immediately gave instructions here, asking Evans to defend Li Feng alone, and he could defend as long as he could, and no one else participated.

Back in the second quarter, both teams came off the bench, and when both teams came off the bench, the Pelicans' weakness was revealed.

At this time, the Jazz's bench roster was full of excellent role players, Exum, Rodney Hood, Grant Gerlett, Joyn Gorzer, and Favors.

As far as the Jazz bench lineup is concerned, the average team's main team is not so strong, and compared to them, the Pelicans' bench lineup is a bit shabby, Turner, Pierce, Granger, Kelly, Henson.

The Pelicans, a bench lineup, can still compete with the opponent on the inside. The main thing is that there is no core on the outside that can hold the basketball.

As a result, at the beginning of the second quarter, the Pelicans were a little overwhelmed, and the Jazz came up to score consecutive points, chasing the score to 43-36, and the Jazz caught up by 5 points in one go, and the difference was shortened by almost half.

Jazz is chasing points by relying on the bench, and it is a little uncomfortable to look at Van Gundy at this time, his bench is too weak, and at this time he can only rely on Li Feng to score points.

Van Gundy was a little heartbroken about Li Feng, but at this time he could only call a timeout. Replaced Li Feng.

The Pelicans kicked off the sideline first and passed the basketball to Li Feng, who easily took the ball at the top of the arc.

Looking back, the Jazz sent a Jellet to defend themselves, and Jellet is also the kind of player who doesn't have the ability to attack as a No. 3 position, and has no strong rebounding and defense as a No. 4 position.

He came to defend Li Feng only with a size advantage, not any advantage, so Li Feng leaned forward with the ball, and then pulled it up outside the three-point line and threw a 3-pointer.

Li Feng felt that this opponent was using Gellet to defend himself. It's a crime not to attack yourself, so it's a light shot to make a move.

Gellett really has no way to defend Li Feng, Li Feng can jump and is fast. The explosiveness is also strong, and he can almost only watch Li Feng make a move.

Li Feng shot a three-point shot, "Huh." Immediately hit the shot, and at this time, the Yu family immediately said in China:

"There is a problem with the Jazz's defense, so let Li Feng go. It's not a solution. ”

"yes, Quinn Pierce estimates a substitution soon."

Director Zhang also felt that the Jazz's defense was a little lax

Li Feng's side successfully attacked, and the Jazz side immediately advanced. Once they pushed through, although the tempo was a little faster than the main lineup, it was still slow overall.

Exum came over and passed the ball to Gereit, who picked up the ball on the right wing and waited for Joingorzer to come and catch it.

But after Joyingorzer ran over to receive the ball, he had no intention of attacking, but turned back to pass the ball to Hood, who staggered with Joyingorzer and attracted everyone's attention with the ball.

At this point, Jongorzer took advantage of his flexible movement to make another good opening, and Hood made a rare pass with a good ball.

The basketball went straight into the hands of Joingorzer, who was in the open position, and Joingelzer took the ball and hit a mid-range shot.

The Pelicans were Li Feng alone, and the Jazz started a team offense.

The Pelicans came over again, and Turner controlled the ball and ran towards the Jazz's half, but Exum fought hard with him and stuck Turner, Turner couldn't get the ball, and Li Feng could only go over to respond.

At this time, Turner passed the basketball to Li Feng's hands, just look at Gelett here Although he is active in defense, his positivity is not very effective, Gelet's body is too ordinary, Li Feng took the ball here and shook it twice, and he gave Gelet over at once.

Gellett hurriedly pulled Wan Kai down with safety regulations, Li Feng scored two points, and went to the free throw line, at this time the Jazz took this opportunity to also make a big change, replacing Evans and Hayward, replacing Gerette and Hood.

Li Feng went to the free throw line and hit both free throws, at this time the Jazz chased over, Hayward took the ball, and when Hayward got the ball, the Jazz were almost three big men on the top of the arc to cover Hayward.

Hayward took the ball and shook it in front of the three people, tearing it to the side, at this time Joyingott took advantage of the situation to cut to the basket, Hayward dropped the basketball and Joyingott attacked the basket, which caused Kelly's foul.

At this point, the Jazz played the team basketball completely, and came up and caused a foul from the Pelicans, and Joingolzer went to the free throw line and hit both free throws.

The Jazz played team basketball in a row, but the Pelicans still didn't react, and Van Gundy didn't think there was anything wrong with Li Feng beating Gellet twice.

When the Pelicans came over again, Van Gundy finally sensed that something was wrong, and the Jazz's defense was obviously letting go of Li Feng.

Evans interfered with Li Feng alone in front, and there was no response at all in the back, which should not be the defense that the Jazz should play, and then the other players watching the Jazz all look at their own people to death.

This time, Van Gundy understood that Jazz was going to let Li Feng go, and Jazz was so bold that he dared to let Li Feng go.

Van Gundy was also taken aback by his conclusion, but the current situation Jazz is indeed letting Li Feng attack.

At this time, the focus of the game has been on Li Feng's body, if Li Feng can beat the Jazz to death, the Jazz's tactics will fail, but if Li Feng's offense is not strong, or the effect is average. will not shake Quinn Pierce's resolve.

Li Feng came up with the ball at this time, and when he saw that his teammates were blocked, he could only attack by himself again with the ball.

He came up to resist Evans and walked inside, under normal circumstances, other teams will be trapped, but today the Jazz just didn't wrap up, letting Li Feng and Evans fight to the death.

Although Evans does not have the qualifications of a star, his physical condition is quite good, although he can't stop Li Feng, but it has also caused a lot of trouble to Li Feng, it depends on where Evans keeps putting pressure on Li Feng. Harassment of Li Feng.

Li Feng desperately resisted Evans here, turned around and scored two points on a jumper.

Li Feng scored two more points here, but it was not as easy as before, Li Feng didn't have to work hard to beat Gelette before, but now it took a lot of effort to play Evans to score these two points.

Li Feng scored two points on his side, but the Jazz came over and quickly played a high-post block, Exum came over to make a quick stop jumper, and the rebound flew out and was actually grabbed by Favors under the basket. Favors, who grabbed the rebound, calmly scored a layup.

Compared to the offensive ability on land, Henson is still not as good as Favors, he just flies higher than the opponent.

The Jazz relied on the team's continuous scoring, and the Pelicans came over and changed their tricks. Li Feng blocked and dismantled with Kelly from a high position, and this tactic was very successful before, but it was also difficult to defend.

But at this time, the Jazz's defense has a focus, that is, a single defense Li Feng. In this way, Kelly still has no offensive opportunity to block and dismantle, and the offensive opportunity is still here with Li Feng, and Li Feng here takes the opportunity to jump up and jump.

As a result, Li Feng's luck was bad this time. Missed jumper.

Li Feng's side succeeded in attacking several times, and finally missed the attack again.

This time, Van Gundy was a little worried, he deeply understood that Li Feng was a convulsive player, once one jumper missed, there would be several misses in the next jumper.

And now is the most critical period, once Li Feng misses the Pelicans, it will be very dangerous, and sure enough, once Li Feng's side misses the shot, the Jazz immediately came over to play an offensive and defensive combination, and Exum took the ball in the bottom corner and threw a three-pointer.

Jazz's tactics initially showed success, so let Li Feng alone, no matter how strong Li Feng is, he is also a person, and if he wants to do it alone every time he attacks, even Superman will be tired to death.

At this time, Li Feng naturally felt something, and came over again to pass the basketball to Kelly, and Kelly took the ball and forcibly hit Joingolzer once.

As a result, Jongolzer's feet were also fast, his defense was also very good, and he missed the shot, and Kelly's side was still poor in singles ability and missed the shot.

The Pelicans' offense missed again, and that's when the Jazz came over and drew another foul on Turner.

All of a sudden, the Pelicans were in a predicament, and the Jazz were either attacking or fouling in a row.

The Pelicans, on the other hand, were getting more and more at a loss, and the two teams played for a while, and it was the second half of the second quarter.

The Jazz has already caught up with the score, the two teams played 53-53, and the score was tied, at this time everyone can see the Jazz's actions, that is, only let go of Li Feng alone, and the rest are desperately defending.

In this case, Li Feng felt a little bad in the second quarter, and the team was immediately in danger.

At this time, Li Feng also realized that his burden was heavy, and he actually took on the vast majority of the team's attacks.

This is definitely a heavy burden, in this case, Li Feng is desperate to score, constantly breaking through to the basket, just to create fouls, to pull the score.

Li Feng relied on constantly going to the free throw line, and at the end of the first half, he finally stabilized the score in front of him.

In this way, in the middle of the field, the two teams played 59-59, which was very high, but it was not a good game.

On the Pelicans side, Li Feng kept rushing in alone, and the Jazz were also playing tightly, and it was not yet time to finally close the net.

At halftime, the reporter interviewed Joingorzer, who was very active in the second quarter, Joinggorzer usually doesn't score much, but today he unexpectedly scored 15 points, and 15 points in the half is a lot.

So the reporter came to interview him immediately, and Joyn Gorzer was also very excited at this time.

Since the rise of Gobert, the Jazz has become a subordinate player, and he was the Jazz's interior player before, and he is very happy to finally be in the limelight today.

Joingorzer is a player of this style and character. It's still very popular with Salt Lake City fans, and he was interviewed on the sidelines, and the fans kept cheering.

The Pelicans took advantage in the first quarter of today's game, but the Jazz immediately tied the score in the second quarter.

At this time, the quartet was also excitedly commenting, of course, it must be Barkley and Kenny Smith who were excited.

At this point, Barkley said:

"The Pelicans' lineup is still too weak, and once Li Feng encounters a predicament, their scoring efficiency will drop immediately, and the lack of depth in the lineup is the Pelicans' biggest weakness."

Kenny Smith also said at this time:

"The Pelicans really lack offensive firepower, and they're compared to the Jazz. There is too much difference in the thickness of the true thickness. ”

Just as the two of them said this, Reggie Miller said unconvinced:

"Even though the Jazz have a thicker roster than the Pelicans, they don't see that they are ahead of a team and it is enough to have eight players to play."

Webb also said at this time:

"Li Feng didn't shoot well in the first half, and if there is a slight improvement, it will definitely not be like this."

The four of them didn't say a few words and quarreled together, and the domestic fans on the domestic side saw that the Pelicans were still leading in the first quarter, and now they were tied all of a sudden.

The Yu family said on the side:

"Director Zhang, in the second quarter, you see that the Pelicans' offense doesn't seem to be very good, except for Li Feng, almost no one else has any appearance."

Director Zhang was asked by the Yu family. Immediately said:

"Of course, there is no table, when playing other teams, it is Li Feng who opens the gap as a breakthrough, and then the other players of the Pelicans make a shot. In this way, their efficiency is naturally high, but today Jazz let go of Li Feng and let Li Feng play alone, and others have no good chance. Naturally, there is no good watch, and during this period of time, Li Feng's feel is average. The team was slowly catching up. ”

"However, although Li Feng has an average feel, he did not score less, relying on free throws Li Feng scored 23 points in the first half, and scored 23 points in the first half, Li Feng's score is high enough."

"In this case, the other players of the Pelicans need to work a little harder, just a little bit, because relying on Li Feng to play like this, both teams have reached a draw, and as long as someone stands up a little bit, the Pelicans will lead."

Director Zhang is looking forward to the performance of other Pelicans players, and Pelican fans are also looking forward to the team's play at this time, because now it is obvious that the Pelicans need to stand up alone except Li Feng.

At this point in the locker room, Van Gundy focused his tactics on Aljefferson.

designed several sets of offensive plans for Al Jefferson in a row, and let Al Jefferson and Li Feng play more together.

The Pelicans are going to play the card of Al Jefferson at this time, but the Jazz are ready to play the card of Hayward, although Hayward also went crazy a few times in the first half, but they were all closed and played, not a state of fighting at all.

But when it came time to decide the outcome in the second half, Hayward, the killer, should come out and kill.

At halftime, the two teams returned to the court, and the opening was the Pelicans' ball, and the Pelicans' offensive plan had been set at halftime, so as soon as the second half began, the Pelicans came over and immediately played Al Jefferson.

Luo Teng gave the basketball to Li Feng on the wing, and Li Feng gave the basketball to Al Jefferson at 45 degrees on the side.

Li Feng ran away from behind him and took the defender away, so that in a short period of time, Al Jefferson was completely one-on-one with Gobert.

Al Jefferson said before the game that he was not inferior to anyone, and this is not nonsense, Al Jefferson really feels that he can compare to any inside lineman, and all he is looking for now is timing and the support of his teammates.

Now Van Gundy put this big responsibility on his shoulders, he is still very excited, at this time he took the ball up, his feet were very solid, and he was very skillful in controlling the ball and pressing inward, at this time, Hayward on the line came to harass, and he also paused flexibly, and did not let Hayward harass successfully.

Just as Hayward was retracting, Al Jefferson slammed down the middle, and as Gobert's center of gravity shifted, he suddenly rolled over to the baseline and threw the basketball into the Jazz's basket. (To be continued......)
