Chapter Seventy-Three: It's Terrible
Min Congda didn't care about drinking beer anymore, and hurriedly opened the live broadcast hotline of the game text of the dog P network to see what happened in the few minutes that he was away.
"Curry replaces Davis, Jordan Jr. replaces Carman, and the Clippers look like they're going to give up the game?"
With more than 3 minutes left before the end of the game, the Clippers replaced the main lineup and replaced Curry, and it seemed that they were about to enter garbage time.
"Gordon received Curry's pass, broke through and scored a layup, resulting in a foul, 2+1!"
"Curry made a successful outside steal, and then passed the ball to Gordon, and Gordon broke through to the layup and hit!"
"At 103:95, the Clippers are still eight points behind."
"Jazz Cools missed a jumper, DeAndre Jordan rebounded in the backcourt, to Curry."
"Curry hit a three-point shot after the outside block, 103:98, the Clippers chased consecutive points, and the Jazz called a timeout."
"The Jazz are a little careless, they are being chased by the Clippers, are the main players coming back?"
"Deron Williams is back on the pitch and Boozer."
"Deron Williams broke through and caused Curry to foul and hit two free throws."
"105:98, the difference is back to 7 points, the Clippers quickly counterattack, Curry and Jordan Jr.'s blocking, Jordan Jr.'s pick-up layup, 105:100, or a 5-point difference."
"The Jazz missed an outside jumper."
The Clippers counterattacked, Curry made a long pass to Gordon in the corner, and Gordon hit a three-point shot! Another three-pointer from Gordon! Gordon scored 8 points in a row! 105:103, only a 2-point difference, the Jazz called a timeout! ”
Min Congda flipped through the content of the text live broadcast, and just a few minutes after he went downstairs to buy beer, the Clippers unexpectedly set off a wave of 13:2 offensive shockwaves, narrowing the gap to 2 points in the last 30 seconds before the end of the game.
This time the offensive shock wave, the top scorer was Eric Gordon.
He shot and scored 8 points, a 2+1, a break, and a three-pointer.
"Damn, Gordon, you're doing something for me, aren't you? What's going on with this jazz? Do you know how to play? In the last few minutes, leading by more than a dozen points, being chased to only 2 points? You guys...... No, I'm going to buy a bottle of fast-acting heart pills......"
Min Congda looked at the difference of only 2 points on the court, and felt that his heart was pounding, and he was about to jump out of his chest.
It was a sporting game that was really exciting, and in a matter of minutes, the situation was completely reversed, and the Clippers had a good chance of winning this game.
Min Congda still had the heart to drink, staring at the TV, Jazz's timeout ended, and the main forces of both sides returned to the court.
The reason why the Clippers were able to catch up quickly in a short period of time was because Dunleavy used a three-guard lineup.
Curry, Gordon, plus Marty Collins.
Two of the three players are rookies, one is a 25-year-old bench guard, and Marty Collins also served as the Clippers' starting point guard last season.
Young, there are breakthroughs, there are projections, the space is stretched, and the Clippers' offense is full of vitality all at once.
And the Jazz were obviously careless, and the second team did not expect the Clippers' offense to be so sharp.
Curry used his speed and passing to lead the team, and played extremely efficient offense in a short period of time.
"This Jerry Sloan is still a veteran coach who has been with the Jazz for more than 20 years, how could he make such a simple mistake and be chased all the way by the second team and almost chased to death? Go one by one, Jazz go in, the ball is ......"
Min Congda has become a Jazz fan again, hoping that the Jazz will win the game to help him win 2,000 yuan.
In fact, Jerry Sloan also felt confused, how could he be penetrated by the Clippers' second team in a few minutes.
The main players were ready to clock out and go back to the locker room to take a shower and finish the game, and he had thought of the words for the interview after the game.
As a result, the suspense of the game increased sharply, and Sloan sorted out his thoughts during the timeout, and the key reason why the Clippers chased the points quickly was that their second team played a completely different tactical style from the main team.
The main force of the Clippers is a traditional combination of inside and outside, with Randolph and Carman accounting for a large proportion of shots, more offensive positions, and a slow pace.
Such routines Sloan and his Jazz are not afraid, slowly grinding with you, in Salt Lake City they are not afraid of the Clippers hard bridge hard horse style of play.
Facts have also proved that the Clippers' style of play, without strong defensive support, especially without an excellent No. 3 position, is a great loss in offensive and defensive attrition.
Your efficiency in playing the interior line is good, but the defense can't handle the opponent, and Randolph and Kaman are not strong enough to blow up a team on the offensive end, so naturally the scene looks okay, and the score is still behind.
Randolph and Carman have good stats, 20 points, while the Jazz side except for the core Williams and Boozer 20 points, the others are more blossoming.
But as soon as the bench lineup came up in the last few minutes, Sloan was really careless, thinking that Randolph, Carman, and Davis would go down, and the Clippers would give up resistance.
How do you know that Dunleavy, an old boy, doesn't talk about ball morality, and the two rookies Curry and Gordon are not on the court to exhaust the garbage time, but to sneak attack me, an old-timer, in Salt Lake City!
When you Dunleavy entered the draft, my Sloan had already retired from the NBA and retired my jersey in Chicago, and Sloan was indeed Dunleavy's old-timer.
Mike Dunleavy was actually wronged, he left Gordon on the court and replaced Curry with the intention of playing casually in the last few minutes of garbage time.
You see, a rough guy like Jordan Jr. has already appeared, and there is a 10,000-year-old bench like Collins, oh yes, and PJ Tucker, a guy who can't play in the NBA, I don't know what the backdoor relationship is, General Manager Smart has to sign him, and he has been given a two-year base salary.
This lineup, small and small, short and short, rough and rough, round and round, it doesn't seem to have much combat effectiveness, who knows that the score difference will be beaten back.
It was a real surprise, Dunleavy didn't even expect it.
In the final stage, the Clippers still played the main players, leaving only Curry to play three guards.
The Jazz side sent a sideline ball to attack, Deron Williams blocked and dismantled high, went straight to the basket, and under Gordon's defense, the throw did not hit!
Carman grabbed the backcourt rebound and immediately called a timeout, and the Clippers had a chance to kill!
"I... I... Hastyly! Sizzling, what is the last attack you guys are fighting!! Why let Williams attack with the ball on his own? The flanks are so big and so wide with the Pacific Ocean, why not play an elevator door tactic? ”
Min Congda felt powerless to complain when he saw the Jazz's last offensive choice, and he could see that the Jazz team had a tactical backhand.
Haprin in the bottom corner, Boozer down the line, and Brewer running from the top of the arc can all be tactical endpoints.
The Clippers' defense is not tight, Davis and Randolph's legs and feet are not very good, they can't keep up with the alignment, and Thorton can't make up the defense.
Therefore, their defensive formation is easy to tear apart, and the tactics of this last shot can obviously be executed better.
Unfortunately, in the end, Deron Williams insisted on playing hero ball, and Coach Sloan on the bench was obviously not happy with his choice.
The Salt Lake City fans who originally wanted to leave the stadium were now stunned, and they all looked up at the big screen one by one, anxiously waiting for the game to continue.
Min Congda was also anxious, just at this time, the mobile phone rang, and when he saw that it was Daddario calling, Min Congda hesitated and connected the phone.
"Hi Smart, I'm in New York and I'm off the plane."
"Oh, you arrived safely? Nice, very nice, wonderful......"
Min Congda listened to the phone as he watched the Clippers' last attack on TV.
"Smart, I... I fell asleep on the plane and had a dream, I dreamed of you, you know? I... I miss you so much..."
D'Addario expressed her thoughts to Min Congda, and the young girl still couldn't contain the spring waves rippling in her heart.
As a result, there was no response from Min Congda on the phone, and she vaguely heard some strange voices, what is this guy doing?
"Smart? What are you doing Smart? Smart! ”
"Oh, oh, I'm fine, I'm fine, I'm fine, I'm watching, I'm sorry."
"Where are you watching? In the arena? ”
"No, no, I'm at home, the Clippers and Jazz game. Oh my God! ”
"What's wrong, did the team lose?"
"Uh... It's worse than losing, it's bad, it's terrible. ”
"Someone hurt?"
"No, no, I wish someone was hurt."
"What the hell is going on then?"
"Curry, it's Stephen Curry, three-pointer to beat the Utah Jazz. Lore, three-point lore. ”
"Stephen Curry? Isn't that your Clippers player? That's a good thing, congratulations, your team has won again! ”
Min Congda sighed, I can't explain this to D'Addario, Curry, he didn't kill Jazz, he killed me!
And killed my money~
