Chapter two hundred and forty second victory in the first battle

Sloan was at midfield and wanted to tell the players to make a little bigger defense in the second half. They were too polite to the enemy in the first half, making it too easy for the guys coming from Los Angeles.

The Jazz's defense has always been synonymous with dirty and barbaric. They don't think there is anything wrong with this. After all, this is a way to win, but this method is restricted by the referee today.

"Damn the referee! Damn the schedule!" Sloan couldn't help but curse in his heart.

In the first half, their defensive moves were as big as the damn referee would immediately call them for a defensive foul. Although the standards of both sides were as strict, such defense was obviously more beneficial to the Clippers. They were like the Spurs. They did not need to use fouls to improve the defensive intensity when defending. The Clippers may be the team that is the best team in the league to control fouls except the Spurs. They could not be more comfortable with such a defensive yardstick.

The Jazz don't like this kind of judgment standard. They are used to iron-blooded defense. They are always called fouls in the first half, and they are disrupted by the whistle. What's even worse is the twins' double-circling front defense. Sloan did not come up with a cracking method until the break, so he could only let Deron Williams strengthen his breakthrough, hoping to save the team with the personal ability of the fat man.

"Carlos, control your foul." Sloan suddenly thought that the twin brothers had only three fouls in the first half, but their Boozer and Ronnie Brewer had three fouls each. This is their two important main players, especially their role on the defensive end, and once they are in a foul crisis, the team's defensive ability will inevitably decline greatly.

In the Clippers' away locker room, Dunleavy was worried that the big lead in the first half would make his players feel proud and complacent. He was careless and underestimated. But when he finished the interview and returned to the locker room a little later, he found that the players did not celebrate in advance in the locker room. These guys should massage the massage, treatment, and some people took the opportunity to take a shower?

Old Dunleavy saw that Ji Guomomiya had just come out of the bathroom, and this little bastard actually took a shower in the midfield. He was not afraid of getting tired after taking a shower!

Ji Guomo took a shower and actually took out the tools to sort out his hairstyle.

"This Moxican Fox is so sissy!" Many Clippers players complained in their hearts.

The halftime break was over, and the Clippers had nothing to do with special arrangements. Their pre-game plan was basically completed in the first half, and today it would be much smoother than the series against the Spurs.

At the beginning of the second half, the starting lineup of the two teams did not adjust, just like at the beginning.

Ji Guomeng won't get tired after taking a shower. At the beginning of the second half, he got a mid-range shooting opportunity in the left rib through continuous back-running, and easily scored two points with a beautiful shot.

Boozer was on the defensive end in the second half and was even more afraid to use too much action to defend against Ji Guohuo. He was already in three fouls and as long as he had another foul, he could only sit off the court and watch his teammates work hard on the court.

The Clippers saw that Boozer was ruthless on the defensive end, and Ji Guoqiu and Billups handed over basketball to Ji Guomeng more. Let him play Carlos Boozer alone.

Boozer's jealousy affected his defensive quality. In the first half, he had no good way to deal with Ji Guohuo. Now he is afraid of his head and tail, so Ji Guohuo will be more demanding on the offensive end.

At the end of the third quarter, the score was 86:68, and the difference between the two teams widened to 18 points.

Ji Guomeng scored 14 points in the third quarter, increasing his score to 30 points and having 7 rebounds; while Boozer, the unlucky guy, was afraid of anything, the more he was. This guy was cautious, but he was still beaten by Ji Guomeng before halfway through the third quarter. The Fox brother used a fake shot to trick the anti-bone into the air, and scored a 2 plus 1, sending the opponent's inside core to the field.

At the Energy Center Stadium, Jazz fans were not as energetic as in the first half. After the team was more than 15 points behind, they gradually stopped shouting. Many fans found that their voices were unknowingly hoarse, but they didn't even get half a bag of throat soggy pills.

From this point of view, Sterling is pretty good, at least she thinks it thoroughly.

"Put your spirits, I know you have complaints about the referee's punishment, but we have to fight tenaciously, and that's all we can do. We are not referees, and the whistle cannot be decided by us, but we can try to show ourselves and overcome difficulties."

Sloan released his mouth cannon skill to his players, but the specific arrangement did not say anything. Such mouth cannons would not play much role.

Old Dunleavy gave the twins enough rest time in the fourth quarter. The situation on the court is good now, and they don’t need to fight harder. They can rest for a while off the court. If the substitute is successful and the score difference expands to more than 20 points, then the Clippers’ main force does not need to return to the court.

In the fourth quarter, both teams felt bad. The Jazz and the Clippers did not score in the first three minutes, but then Oku and Korver each made a three-pointer, and the Jazz suddenly scored six points in a row to narrow the gap.

Seeing that the situation was not good, Old Dunleavy immediately called a timeout and took the opportunity to send all the team's starters back to the court to prevent the Jazz from further narrowing the score difference.

The fourth quarter was 7 minutes and 30 seconds, with a score of 90:77.

Old Dunleavy is very dissatisfied with the team's substitutes' performance during this period. Their main players did not underestimate the opponent on the court, but these substitutes were a little proud.

After the game restarted, the Clippers began to implement the 4-position wing three-point tactic.

After Artest entered the second round, his mentality improved a lot, a bit like the mentality of the old captain when he just made a comeback before the All-Star Game. He had a little bit of no desire and no desire. This was because he could never get a basketball, and he gradually adapted over time.

Ji Guomeng returned to the court and continued to run a large-scale unballed run. Artest was under very little defensive pressure on the weak side. Billups made a fake move to pass the ball to Ji Guomeng, but the basketball was at the hands of Artest who was unmarked.

Artest received the basketball and immediately rushed to the Jazz player to make a jump shot from the left wing to get his 7th point in the game before the Jazz player made up for defense.

The next round is Artest. This time he received the pass from Billups after breaking through and caught the ball on the right and hit it again!

After the Clippers' beasts scored four points in a row, the score was 94:79, and the Clippers once again widened the score difference to 15 points.

Coach Sloan could only call another timeout, instructing the players not to relax too much about Artest. The Beast had several exciting games in the series against the Spurs and could not easily relax his defense.

After the game started again, Deron Williams forced a breakthrough and scored two points.

The Clippers attacked, and Billups dribbled forward. He also forced a breakthrough outside the three-point line, causing Deron Williams to make a defensive foul.

This time, the foul was not served, and the number of fouls had not arrived yet. The Clippers sent the frontcourt ball. After Billups received the ball, he reorganized the attack. This time, Ji Guomo was on the right wing and his shooting was missed.

Ji Guoqiu competed with Oku for rebounds at the basket and used his ape arm to dial the blue ball to the outside.

Billups received the basketball and the Clippers once again took a frontcourt rebound.

Some of the home atmosphere that had just recovered in the Energy Center Arena fell down again. Today, they were always preparing to counterattack. The Clippers grabbed the frontcourt rebounds, which was too bad for morale. Moreover, the Jazz couldn't protect their backcourt rebounds, but they had nothing to do with the referee, and they couldn't blame the referee even if they wanted to.

This time it was Ji Guoqiu's turn to play at a low post. Perhaps in the last quarter of the game, the two brothers' touch began to decline. Ji Guoqiu's small hook shot at the penalty area line also failed.

Boozer finally protected the backcourt rebound, Deron Williams dribbled forward, and Oku broke into the inside after pick-and-roll at the top of the arc, but unfortunately missed the shot from the two brothers.

Deron Williams also began to be anxious. His hand shape would easily deform when he was anxious, and he could also easily hit the balls he could score.

Artest and Boozer won the rebound after fighting at the basket, and the Clippers counterattacked quickly.

Billups received the basketball and rushed into the Jazz's basket first. Deron Williams used a foul action to knock the keyman out of the field.

"Dou!" The referee immediately blew the whistle and awarded a defensive foul.

Billups now reflects the value of his MVP in the finals. If he wants to compete for his health, Billups is no less than Deron Williams. Before falling off the court, the key threw the basketball casually. The basketball fell to the basket and fro and fro, and finally fell into the Nets.

Twenty thousand Jazz fans and players on the field held their heads with their hands. Billups' goal was a death-driven effect and completely defeated their fighting spirit.

In this game, it seems that no matter how hard they try, there are always people in the Clippers who will stand up. The twins who performed well in the first three quarters felt less in the fourth quarter, but Artest and Billups took over the Clippers' firepower output task, which instead made them increasingly close in a blink of an eye and widen the score that made people feel hopeless.

The Clippers players celebrated unscrupulously on the court, and it was obvious that they were deliberately annoying the Jazz players. Especially this fox made the Jazz fans and players’ toothache the most. This guy actually performed two backflips on the court!

It's so damn. He didn't score the goal just now, so why is he more excited than the person involved?

After Ji Guomeng completed the task of attracting the Jazz's hatred, the next time on the offensive end, he easily shot and made a fake move to trick Kirirenko, who replaced him.

The Russian tough guy who has been through many battles would not have taken such obvious fake moves, but the Jazz players' mentality has been unbalanced. This time, Ji Guomo easily tricked him into making three free throws.

There is only half of the game left. Seeing that the Clippers are about to get another three-pointer, many Jazz fans who feel there is no hope have begun to leave the court. This game made the fanatical Salt Lake City fans unable to bear it anymore. The Clippers Twins have not defended these two points since the beginning, and they are still the same. How can they turn the defeat into victory?

Jeff Van Gundy sighed: "The game is not over yet, and we usually say 'The game is not over, anything can happen', but I really don't think the Jazz still have hope of turning defeat into victory now."

Mark Jackson said: "In the first round, the Clippers played against the Spurs. We tried all the hard work when San Antonio tried to make the twins perform in just three games. At first, we thought the Spurs were deteriorating seriously, but now the Clippers entered the second round to face the Jazz. We finally knew that it might not be the Spurs' decline, but the Clippers' twins did have All-Star strength inside, and they are not easy to deal with."

Ji Guoxie made all three free throws, with a score of 100:81, and the Jazz was only one step away from being 20 points behind.

The Jazz players gave up the game, and after that they did not set off another wave of counterattack, and the score difference quickly exceeded the 20-point mark.

Old Dunleavy replaced all the main players at the 4th minute and 05th second, announcing that the game had entered garbage time.

Sloan soon replaced the Jazz players who had lost their winning goal, replaced all substitutes, and gave up resistance.

The final score was 110:93, and the Los Angeles Clippers beat the Utah Jazz away.
