The most dazzling player of the Lakers on the court is Zhang Hao, but his performance is not the best. In fact, he has played almost half a game, and his scoring and defensive performance can only be said to be okay.
Under the Jazz's defense, he didn't have many shooting opportunities. What made him dazzling was his toughness. His role was his containment, and his containment was all due to the fact that he had just won the Player of the Month award and was relying on This tough image brings extra pressure to the Jazz.
Now the Lakers¡¯ best players on the court are Doug Christie and Jason Williams. Of these two, one is responsible for offense and the other is responsible for grabbing boards, taking advantage of Zhang Hao¡¯s containment power.
? ?Also, Del Harris¡¯s tactical adjustments are in place.
The very single technology means that Zhang Hao does not have many solutions to the problem.
But he is very positive, patient, and smart, and can always find opportunities to use his abilities.
At 6 minutes and 52 seconds of the second quarter, Zhang Hao received the ball and encountered Malone's defensive change. He leaned forward and encountered Malone's power movement that was just right during the confrontation and would not be noticed by the referee. Zhang Hao took the opportunity to step forward and turn over. Jump shot
Based on their trust in Malone¡¯s defense, no one else on the Jazz team double-teamed him. Zhang Hao, who had gradually adapted to this kind of confrontation, found an opportunity. Zhang Hao¡¯s turnaround jumper hit!
43 to 44, the Lakers have clung to the point difference from the beginning of the second quarter to the current low-scoring stage!
The Jazz called a timeout!
The head coaches of the two teams changed into defensive lineups with a tacit understanding.
The Lakers sent a combination of Thadler Slater, Anthony Peeler, George Lynch, Magic, and Campbell.
The Lakers sent a combination of Stockton, Hornacek, David Benoit, Adam Feiki, and Ostertag.
Returning to the bench, Zhang Hao looked at his statistics. After playing for one and a half quarters, he made 3 of 7 shots, 4 of 5 free throws, and scored 10 points.
There really weren¡¯t many phone calls, but fortunately my teammates played well.
On the court, Magic went up after resting for nearly a quarter and still played hard. He wanted to beat Malone more than Jordan.
Taking advantage of Malone's absence, the Jazz's basket protection was strong but their movement was poor. Magic tried his best to help the Lakers fall behind by only 5 points at 10 minutes and 44 seconds of the second quarter, trailing 49 to 54.
The Lakers called a timeout and replaced the combination of Van Exel, Doug Christie, Zhang Hao, Magic, and Jason Williams in the last two rounds.
The Jazz also replaced the combination of Stockton, Hornacek, Chris Morris, Malone, and Spencer with excellent offense and defense.
After the timeout, neither team scored on the first attack. On the last attack before halftime, Zhang Hao slipped to the baseline and borrowed Jason Williams' pick-and-roll, and Malone switched to him.
Zhang Hao ran around the edge of the court, entered the three-point line from outside the 45-degree three-point line on the left, came to the right side of the top arc, received the ball in one step, turned over, left the three-point line, took off, and pushed the shot put
After almost running around the entire three-point line, Zhang Hao finally got a chance to shoot and hit a three-pointer!
52 to 54, the Lakers trailed by two points entering halftime!
¡¡
????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????? off out of 13 points, 4 rebounds, 1 assist and 1 block. Zhang Hao's performance, hit and miss, still looks good.
But more importantly, Magic had 9 points and 5 assists in the half, and Doug Christie had 12 points and 3 assists in the half. The two of them made good use of Zhang Hao's containment power.
During the halftime break, Del Harris analyzed the specific situation of the first half.
The situation is quite serious!
The Jazz are a brutal team. When they play against weak teams, they like to attack and overwhelm their opponents in one go.
This is how the Jazz played at the beginning. When the Lakers scored stably in the first quarter, the two teams scored very high in the first quarter.
But after the Jazz strengthened their confrontation in the last three minutes of the first quarter and continued to strengthen their confrontation in the second quarter, their Lakers' scoring dropped seriously. In the second quarter, they only scored 19 points!
The players didn¡¯t feel much during the game. The score was tight and it just felt more and more difficult to beat. But when we analyzed it during the break, we could see that the game had entered the rhythm of the Jazz!
The Jazz scored 22 points in the second quarter and used their slow-paced play against strong teams to unknowingly take the lead.
After reading Del Harris¡¯ halftime analysis, Zhang Hao came to a conclusion-the Jazz are stronger than the Spurs!
Although the Spurs' record will most likely be better, Zhang Hao feels that the Jazz are indeed better.
"In this case, we have to; Just when Malone stood up for a layup, someone hugged his shoulders and pulled him down!
Zhang Hao!
Zhang Hao hung directly on Ma Long and knocked Ma Long down!
Confused
The fans at the scene were confused, the referees were confused, the Jazz players were confused, and Malone, who was pulled to the ground, was even more confused!
The Lakers players immediately gathered around Zhang Hao to prevent the rookie from being beaten.
The magician¡¯s mood is extremely complicated, but he has to stand at the front to protect the rookie, because he is the one that the opponent is least willing to fight and dare not fight, and they are afraid that he will burst into blood.
On the bench, the Lakers head coach was stunned!
"That guy actually wanted to do thishe just did it!"
After the referee reacted, he quickly stopped him in front of a group of Lakers players. This posture looked like the entire Lakers team was going to beat Malone.
It was only then that the Jazz players realized they should help, but Malone, who was pulled up by Stockton, didn't know what to do.
This is the first time he has encountered such a situation! So confused!
The fall actually didn¡¯t hurt. When the opponent pulled him down, they put him on the ground instead of letting him fall directly to the ground.
But others felt that Ma Long didn¡¯t make any moves because he was blinded
The referee called Zhang Hao for a foul on defense. He looked at each other decisively and looked at the replay to think about it.
There may have been a fight Although it didn't look like it, the head coaches of the two teams immediately came up and took their players back to the bench when the game was stopped.
After the referees watched the replay, they were experienced enough to easily spot Zhang Hao¡¯s "little moves", which were just vicious fouls, and also included moves to protect the person who was fouled
??????????????????????????????????????????????????????????After the fans at the scene reacted and yelled wildly, the referee made a call - Zhang Hao committed a foul, and Malone got two free throws.
With this call, Sloan is going to go berserk!
The referee didn¡¯t explain anything and signaled the game to continue.
Seeing his teammates excitedly talking around Zhang Hao, Magic didn't hear clearly. His teammates were all very excited. Now, he only felt one thing - the heir to the Lakers Kingdom, how could he grow a big bird? The bad boy feeling?
¡¡
The game continued, Malone stood on the free throw line and made two free throws!
He is very fierce and smart, but he is also a human being. There were too many unexpected situations in tonight's game. He lost his normal rhythm and failed to score any free throws.
Missing two free throws is almost equal to a mistake!
It¡¯s like Zhang Hao just ¡°defended¡± Ma Long!
In the transition between offense and defense, due to Zhang Hao's rough action just now, except for Malone who witnessed it and Stockton who knew Malone, everyone on the Jazz team was confused by Zhang Hao's action and defended Zhang Hao extremely fiercely.
Zhang Hao's side bears the greatest defensive pressure and works hard to drive the defense to the other side. Magic's side takes the opportunity to rush to close range and score the bottom corner. Van Exel makes a three-pointer!
It¡¯s not just the Jazz players who are excited. Zhang Hao really made such a defensive move against Malone without fear, and his teammates also became excited!
The core reason is that Malone is too bullying. The Lakers players, who stand on the moral high ground, don't think there is anything wrong with what Zhang Hao did. They are in a positive mood and feel that they are the righteous party!
Van Exel is a player who is easily affected by emotions. The happier he is, the better he plays!
With a heart of justice, Van Exel caught the ball and hit a three-pointer!
55 to 54, the Lakers lead by one point!
I¡¯m getting excited! Zhang Hao used every available condition from the beginning to stir up the emotions of his teammates!
I like to play basketball too much. What should I do if I am too powerful? What should I do to update the fastest. (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
