In the media interview before the game, the home reporter interviewed Leonard who was training. The Jazz had suffered a disastrous defeat in the previous two games, but Leonard's performance was remarkable, scoring 18 points and 20 points respectively in the two games. , is one of the few bright spots in the Jazz lineup.
Leonard was training. When he saw reporters coming over, a smile suddenly appeared on his face. He stopped playing the ball and greeted the reporters. You must know that although he was traded to the Jazz, the core of the Jazz is now Russia. Kirilenko, he is also playing a role player here, but because Kirilenko has already established a firm foothold in the league, he does not have as much resentment against Anthony, and role players unless they perform well , otherwise it would be rare to have the opportunity to be interviewed by the media after the game.
The reporter walked up to Leonard and asked, "Hey, Wash, do you have time now?"
Leonard put down the ball in his hand, walked to the reporter, smiled and said: "Of course."
Seeing Leonard's cooperation, the reporter swallowed back his polite words and asked directly: "Wash, we know that today is the first time the Jazz play at home. The team lost the previous two games. Okay, did the coach make any special arrangements today?"
When Leonard heard the reporter ask this question, a smile suddenly appeared on his face: "I can't reveal the tactics, but the coach did give me a special task today."
When the reporter heard that Sloan had given Leonard a special task, he immediately became interested and asked: "Then can you tell us about this?"
"Of course" Leonard seemed to have been prepared and said without much thought, "Today the coach analyzed the strengths and weaknesses of the two teams with us. Today I will focus on defending Melo."
"Guarding against Melo?!" The reporter looked surprised. You know that Anthony completely beats Leonard in all aspects, whether it is size, height or skills. How could Sloan let Leonard guard Anthony? But immediately, he realized that he had lost his composure, and quickly slowed down his tone and asked, "Can you please reveal Coach Sloan's tactical intention?"
"It's very simple. The coach hopes that I can completely lock down Melo. You know, Melo and I have been teammates before, and I am very familiar with his offensive methods." Leonard explained gushingly, "Although I know this is a difficult task, but as a veteran on the team, I have an obligation to stand up and sacrifice myself for the team's victory and put all my experience into defense."
When the reporter heard Leonard's answer, he suddenly felt ashamed. He didn't even ask, he just answered it himself, and from the tone of his voice, he should have taken the initiative to ask the coach for help. However, Leonard was very determined. He immediately complimented him and said, "I can see that Wash is very confident in himself. I believe he will definitely show us a different version of himself today."
"I will." Leonard said confidently.
As soon as Leonard finished his interview, the referee quickly blew the whistle to start the game, and the starting players from both sides walked towards the center of the field one after another.
Anthony was warming up in training before, and now he felt that his whole body was in good condition. He didn't pay much attention to the fanatical cheers of the fans around him. He liked this kind of occasion the most, so he regarded the cheers as They are home fans.
Soon, Nene and Ostrotta in the middle circle jumped the ball. Nene slapped the ball back to the Nuggets side, and the ball was controlled by Williams.
Williams controlled the ball and began to advance forward, and the Jazz retreated quickly.
Anthony observed the Jazz's defense at this moment and found that they were still defending a zone. However, when he saw the player guarding him, he was stunned for a moment. When the Jazz defended the zone in the last game, the one who defended him was Ha Pullin, but now the person in charge of defense actually became Leonard.
After Anthony was stunned for a moment, he couldn't help but want to laugh. If Halprin is about the same height as him, although he is not that big of a defensive threat, he is only 1.9 meters tall now. Three Leonard, this time, is really out of place.
He looked at the Jazz bench with some suspicion at this moment. Sloan held his chin in his hand and frowned. Seeing the old man's face full of sorrow, he couldn't figure out what he was thinking.
However, when the boat reached the bridge, it naturally straightened out. Anthony withdrew his gaze, stopped paying attention, and started running according to the tactics.
From the free throw line, he made a ball-free pick-and-roll with Brand, and then slipped from the basket to the free-throw line. Almost at the same time, Brand and Bell made another off-ball pick-and-roll, and Bell made a pick-and-roll without the ball.Er took advantage of the situation and cut to the basket, while Brand ran to the free throw line.
Williams was observing the movement of his teammates at the moment. The Nuggets had three directions to pass the ball to, and he finally chose to pass it to Anthony.
As soon as Anthony caught the ball, Leonard pushed forward, and almost at the same time, Kirilenko, who was pushed to the free throw line by Brandela, used his quick movement to follow up and defend.
Anthony immediately observed the Jazz's defensive changes after holding the ball. When he saw Kirilenko pounce, he immediately lobbed Brand to the free throw line.
Kirilenko braked suddenly, but it was too late. Brand was already empty at the free throw line.
The fans are in an uproar now.
Brand opens his hand to make a shooting action. This distance is his point, and the challenge for him is very small.
The fans on the sidelines and the Jazz players on the bench were all focused on Brand, ready to see him hit this mid-range shot.
But at this moment, a figure flew up, it was Ostrotta. After this young insider was encouraged by Coach Sloan before the game, his whole body was like a chicken. He quickly came from the inside He stepped out of defense and put his hand in front of Brand.
On the basketball court, hard work can solve many things, but it is powerless against some things, especially when there is a huge gap between the strength of the players on both sides.
Ostrotta and Brand obviously fall into this category, so the moment Ostrotta made the save, Brand moved. He took the ball and made a direct pass. The ball was like a smart elf, coming from Ostrotta. Strotta flew sideways and then into Nene's hands.
After passing the ball, Brand moved to the side very experiencedly, avoiding the rushing Ostolotta and preventing the opponent from fouling.
In such a round, the ball was in the hands of Nene under the basket, and at this time, there was nothing in front of him.
With a loud "bang" sound, Nene showed off his powerful violent aesthetics from the beginning, causing an uproar among the fans at the scene.
On the bench of the Jazz, the substitute players hid their faces and were speechless. They had been slaughtered for two consecutive games, and their mental endurance at this moment was obviously much weaker than before.
Sloan was standing on the sidelines, still dragging his chin and not saying anything.
However, the Jazz players on the field didn¡¯t feel much. After all, it was just the first goal of the game. Kirilenko went to the sidelines to take a free throw, and Arroyo controlled the ball and continued to advance.
Arriving in the frontcourt, after several pick-and-roll cooperations, Halprin took a direct shot against Bell. With his height advantage, he felt pretty good when shooting the ball, and the ball landed smoothly and scored.
This goal immediately made the audience cheer enthusiastically. It was obvious that they needed a victory to cheer them up.
The fans at the scene were very excited, but the Nuggets players were very calm. Looking back, after a few cooperations, the ball got into Anthony's hands. The other players pulled away, and Anthony turned around and started playing with his back.
Leonard was also working hard at this moment. He kept stretching his hands from Anthony's armpits and digging around desperately. He wanted to prove that he could do what he and the coach promised.
After Anthony turned his back, he felt some excessive interference from Leonard and hit him several times. He looked at the referee on the sidelines, but the referee was indifferent.
"Snapped!"
There was another crisp sound, Anthony's hand was hit hard, and the ball almost slipped out. He quickly stabilized his body, controlled the ball, and yelled at the referee who was close at hand.
What made him extremely depressed was that the referee always raised his hand, but did not blow the whistle. Anthony immediately knew that this game was not so easy to play, and the home referee's whistle was so obvious.
Perhaps noticing that Anthony was chatting with the referee, the fans at the scene suddenly let out a burst of boos, as if they wanted to drown Anthony in the Delta Center Arena with their saliva.
When Anthony heard the boos and saw the referee's reaction, he knew that it was useless to complain at this moment. He simply made a big move and bumped back hard twice, which made Leonard grunt twice. Obviously, Enough.
However, Anthony has never been the kind of person who relies purely on strength to win. After hitting twice hard and feeling that Leonard's defensive center of gravity was pushed away by him, he turned around with a big stride and used his strength advantage to push Leonard away. After Nader opened the ball, he directly made a low layup.
With a "pop", the unwilling Leonard hit him hard behind him, hitting his arm with a crisp sound. This time, even if the referee was deliberately biased, it was impossible, the ball was too obvious.
The referee's whistle sounded immediately, and Anthony scored a 2 plus 1.
"Stand up to him!" Sloan on the sidelines couldn't help but yelled loudly when he saw that Leonard not only failed to guard Anthony, but also got fouled.
Leonard¡¯s face darkened, he didn¡¯t say anything and walked straight towards the three-point line. (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com)There was a crisp sound. This time, even if the referee was deliberately biased, it was impossible. The ball was too obvious.
