270 Trading in the making
341 Playing in front of Jazz
After the timeout, the game continues.
Both teams made adjustments to their respective lineups, with the Jazz replacing Memit Oku and Paul Millsap; the Pistons replacing McGrady and Ben Gordon.
Deron Williams took the baseline serve from his teammates and then carried the ball towards the Pistons' half.
Paul Millsap got a good position in the Pistons' inside line and pressed Greg Monroe to reach out to Deron Williams for the ball. After Deron saw it, he decisively lifted the ball into the basket.
On November 10, 2010, Paul Millsap became famous in the Heat and Jazz match, scoring a career-high 46 points and 9 rebounds, and scored 11 points in the last 28 seconds of regular time.
After Paul Millsap received the ball, he turned around and made a jump shot, but was slapped by Zhou Yi, who came out of the wing, and Andre Iguodala grabbed the ball.
After seeing the ball fall into Andre Iguodala's hands, Zhou Yi tried his best to rush towards the Jazz's half.
Andre Iguodala naturally understood Zhou Yi's actions, so she passed a long pass and the ball flew in front of Zhou Yi. Zhou Yi accelerated again, picked up the ball at once, and then rushed into the Jazz's three-point line.
As soon as he rushed into the Jazz's three-point line, Zhou Yi showed his strength as a "Chinese Flying Man". Zhou Yi jumped, grabbed the ball with his right hand, and flew towards the basket.
The fans of the audience looked at Zhou Yi excitedly. They all knew that Zhou Yi was going to dunk.
Fly and dunk in one step within the three-point line!
With a "clang", Zhou Yi completed this thunderous dunk, and the fans of the audience burst into cheerful cries.
When the Jazz sent the ball from the bottom line, the Pistons players had already retreated to their half. The Pistons' tactical intentions were very obvious. In the game, they tried to drag the rhythm down and drag the Jazz into the positional battle. The Jazz's fast attack was still the sharpest in the league, but once the game fell into the positional battle, the gap between them was invisibly narrowed a lot.
Deron Williams frowned slightly. As soon as he passed half, Zhou Yi directly pulled out to defend. The rigorous defense gave Deron Williams a headache. He was not worried about any mistakes he would make. However, for Jazz players, the earlier the ball was passed, the better the effect. The Jazz's running and bombing tactics are the smooth operation of the ball.
When Laga Bell saw Deron Williams' situation, he quickly pulled it out, took the pass from Deron Williams' hand, and quickly handed it to the inside.
Andre Kirilenko received the ball near the free throw line, held the ball with his right hand and was Greg Monroe defending him.
Although Greg Monroe is two meters tall, he is not a player who likes to stay at the basket. Whether offense or defense, he likes to push his opponent to the near free throw line. His super long arm span, amazing explosive power and flexible footsteps make him look at it easily in the game. If necessary, Greg Monroe can make a temporary guest appearance in five positions, and his area is spread throughout the half.
However, his shortcomings are also obvious, that is, what John Custer calls lack of experience.
In a desperate situation, Andrei Kirirenko's wrist trembled gently, and the ball was handed from behind to Al Jefferson, who used his body as a cover and shot in the middle distance.
Jerry Sloan nodded slightly. With Al Jefferson's comeback, the Jazz's playing style has changed a lot, strengthening the attack power of the inside, making Al Jefferson's role on the court decrease day by day. However, Al Jefferson still maintains a good competitive state, and his shooting at critical moments is still so trustworthy.
Laga Bale is a typical iron-blooded defensive man, a medium and long-distance defense expert. His defense not only relies on outstanding physical conditions, but also uses his mind to defend. He is a smart defensive player. After the opponent makes adjustments to the offensive method, he will change his defense method without coaching reminders.
Because Deron Williams' defense is not very good, Laga Bale gave the Jazz a great help on the defensive end. The defensive movements are not very big. He is a defensive master. His strength is not enough to become a star, but he is definitely a character that cannot be ignored. He has excellent performance on both offense and defense. He is the type that loves his own team and hates others' teams.
Laga Bell completely uses close-fits defense against Zhou Yi, and the kind of close-fits defense that is willing to relax at one step.
Any player needs enough space to display, but Laga Bale's entire body is almost against him. This kind of defense requires very strict requirements for defensive players. In addition to having excellent explosive power and reaction power, it also requires a certain physical ability to fight.
In close-fitting defense, if you are easily bounced away by your opponent, you will not be able to achieve the expected effect at all. However, this defensive effect is also obvious, and it is difficult for offensive players to choose. Moreover, during the ball control process, due to the limited space for display, you may easily make mistakes if you are not careful.
Feeling the oppressive force coming from Laga Bale's body, Zhou Yi was secretly surprised: Unexpectedly, Laga Bale's figure seemed not very good, but it contained amazing force. If he had changed to a player with a slightly inferior ability to fight, he would have been squeezed away by him after his repeated collisions.
The ball was quickly handed to McGrady. With Zhou Yi's position at this time, even if he made a forced breakthrough, other Jazz players had enough time to come forward to make up for defense.
After the ball was shot, Zhou Yi quickly interspersed with the running position, but what made him more depressed was that Laga Bale seemed to have determined himself. Even if the ball was no longer in his hands, he still chased him and refused to leave a single step.
Seeing that Zhou Yi could not fall away, McGrady had no choice but to hang the ball into the inside line. Greg Monroe received the ball near the free throw line.
Paul Millsap immediately pulled out to defend, but he neglected Zhou Yi.
Since he couldn't get rid of Lagar Bale, Zhou Yi simply kept running in the middle of the game, followed by a tail that could not even fall.
When McGrady lifted the ball into the inside, Zhou Yi's eyes lit up and he actually went straight towards Greg Monroe. A flash of Greg Monroe's eyes was hindering Paul Millsap's backup defense. Not only that, Laga Bell behind him also stepped forward to join in the fun.
He was hesitating to score the ball just now, but he didn't expect that Zhou Yi's interlude would bring such a dramatic effect. Zhou Yi and Laga Bale collided and had no way to defend. There were two people between Paul Millsap, and he could only watch Greg Monroe pulling a scallion in the dry land and making a mid-range shot.
"Zhou is indeed an incredible player. The few goals just now actually used Jazz players to play pick-and-rolls to win Shusong's mobile phone chance for himself and his teammates. It was simply amazing." Kenny Smith, the commentator at the scene, couldn't help laughing.
Zhou Yi actually scored consecutively in front of the Jazz, and used Jazz players as pick-and-roll tools. In the eyes of Jazz fans, this is like playing with a big knife in front of Guan Gong and playing with a big knife in front of Michael~~~
Even Jazz head coach Jerry Sloan, seeing such two strange goals, only smiled bitterly and shook his head.
I don't know how to criticize the players for such goals. On these two goals, the Jazz players are very active in defense, but their positive defensive attitude was just rightly used by Zhou Yi, and the result was that the Pistons scored two goals.
Deron Williams made several breakthroughs without success. Zhou Yi always blocked his breakthrough route just right. Yodi Meeks, who replaced Gordon, also gained experience from his predecessors, and stuck Laga Bell tightly, making him unable to step forward to meet.
Delon Williams quickly slid his right step along the force of the dribble. Before Zhou Yi repaired the defense, he quickly stepped out his left foot and completed the entire start action instantly.
The dark shadow flashed in front of him, and Deron Williams almost plunged into Zhou Yi's arms. When he was full of joy in his breakthrough, Zhou Yi actually reappeared on his breakthrough route.
Seeing the passing of time little by little, Deron Williams did not hesitate at all. While Zhou Yi was not stable in his defense, his right wrist trembled slightly, and the ball quickly handed it to Al Jefferson like an arrow.
At this time, Greg Monroe was pulled to the outside line, and only Ben Wallace was left in the inside line. He had to gain a little advantage in body shape, but his explosive power was not very strong. After all, he was old and his physical ability to fight was no longer his strength, especially when facing a ferocious wolf like Al Jefferson, his physical weaknesses were undoubtedly even more exposed.
Al Jefferson played Ben Wallace with her back on her back. Her strong body kept shaking in front of Ben Wallace's chest. The repeated muscle collisions made Ben Wallace almost relieved in a tight breath.
It was obvious that Ben Wallace was at the end of his strength, and Al Jefferson's movements were even more intense.
"Bang", with continuous collisions, Ben Wallace was suddenly pushed out of the bottom line, and his back loosened. Al Jefferson was overjoyed and turned around and prepared to bang his hands.
As Al Jefferson raised the ball to his chest, a huge force came from the basketball, causing his body to fleece to frustrate, and the ball in his hand fell to the floor weakly.
After Zhou Yi successfully made a steal, he immediately threw a long throw, and the ball passed through the Pistons. Several Jazz players flew directly to the Pistons' frontcourt. Yodi Meeks had already seen the opportunity and ran back with oil on his feet.
Yodi Meeks rarely has the chance to perform. With such a good chance to perform at this moment, he naturally would not let it go. After Yodi Meeks received Zhou Yi's pass, three games turned into two steps, and rushed into the Jazz's penalty area with a double-handed dunk.
In the Jazz's offense, Deron Williams used Al Jefferson's pick-and-roll to rush into the Pistons' basket and made a layup.
Laga Bale's close-fitting defense made Zhou Yi feel very uncomfortable, especially his constant attempt to take the ball in his hand. His indomitable momentum in the defense made people admire him.
The Jazz's defense is very good, and their round defense conversion is very fast. Zhou Yi only delayed it slightly, and the Jazz's had already penetrated the entire Pistons' half.
"Pa" and "Pa", Zhou Yi's rhythm of controlling the ball instantly accelerated, and Laga Bale was caught off guard, and his whole body moved quickly to the right with Zhou Yi's movement. As the Jazz's defensive expert, Laga Bale has always been the best candidate to let go of the opponent's number one scorer on the outside.
Over the past few years, there have been countless star players in front of him, but few people have brought him such great pressure like Zhou Yi. In just five minutes, he has basically made no achievements in defense.
"Squeak", Zhou Yi's body stopped forcibly, and Laga Bell felt sad. His physical ability was also first-class, but he was still inferior to Zhou Yi. Seeing Zhou Yi pulling onions onions on dry land, his body's center of gravity could not be adjusted at all, and he habitually stretched out his right hand.
"Bang", Zhou Yi naturally would not miss the opportunity given by his opponent. He raised his hands slightly and Laga Bale happened to slap his right wrist, but at this time his ball had already been handed over to his left hand, and his right hand only serves as an auxiliary shooting.
"Swish", the shooting position was a little high when he lost his center of gravity, but it did not stop him from entering the basket at all. A beautiful rainbow was drawn in the air, and the ball plunged into the opponent's basket.
Watching Zhou Yi confidently walk to the free throw line, the home fans sent inspiring cheers and applause, Zhou Yi smiled and enjoyed these enthusiasm.
"Swish", Zhou Yi hit the penalty!
Al Jefferson turned around and made a jump shot at the free throw line. Such a stable mid-range shooting has always been Al Jefferson's biggest trick. As long as there is a chance, his shot will be accurately sent into the opponent's basket.
Because Laga Bell failed to defend Zhou Yi before, she was very warlike. Laga Bell, who had completely entered the state, put great pressure on Zhou Yi on the defensive end. The continuous fierce confrontation of his body made Zhou Yi feel a little unbearable. Deron Williams pulled over from time to time to assist in the defense, allowing Zhou Yi to walk away from his eyes several times that he had finally squeezed out.
Zhou Yi once again used his teammate Greg Monroe's pick-and-roll to rush into the Jazz's penalty area, and then passed the ball to Greg Monroe who ran into the Jazz's basket, who made another one-handed dunk.
Chapter completed!
