NBA: Two hands can’t carry championship rings

The Warriors' lineup for this game is the starting point guard:"The Bearded" Baron Davis.

Shooting guard: Monta Ellis.

Small forward:"Captain" Stephen Jackson.

Power forward: Al Harrington.

Center: Andris Biedrins.

The starting lineup of the Utah Jazz is point guard: Deron Williams, the leader of the new generation of point guards, who eats and sleeps while playing Paul.

Shooting guard: Ronnie Brewer, who is good at running and jumping.

Small forward: Both offensive and defensive, all-around shot-blocking king"AK47" Kirilenko.

Power forward: One of the extremely lethal pick-and-roll duo, All-Star player Carlos Boozer.

At the center position is Mimet Okur, who has the ability to shoot three-pointers, giving Yao Ming a huge headache.

Also sitting on the bench is future All-Star Millsap, who is now showing his talents.

The Jazz are strong and sitting at home, so they naturally want to get a good start to the new season.

This game is definitely not easy for the Warriors.

A jump ball in the center circle, center Biedrins won the jump, the basketball fell to the Warriors backcourt, the captain got the ball and passed it to the point guard Beard.

The bearded man quickly dribbled across the half court with the ball, organized the offense, and passed the basketball several times before the ball came into the hands of shooting guard Ellis.

After catching the ball, Ellis pretended to shoot, took a very fast step, passed Brewer, faced Okur's block, and scored a layup.

Ellis' offensive ability is at the top level in the league, his breakthrough ability is very strong, his first step is very fast, and he can easily pass defenders.

It's the Jazz's turn to attack.

Familiar formulas, familiar pick-and-rolls, familiar scenarios.

Deron took advantage of Boozer's screen and made an easy mid-range shot.

This is the famous pick-and-roll tactic of Jazz head coach Sloan, who once led the first generation of Utah to defeat Malone and Stockton and reach the Finals twice.

In the generation of Deron and Boozer, the power of pick-and-roll tactics has not diminished. The Houston Rockets, which can be said to be the home team of Chinese fans, have fallen at their feet several times.

The first quarter was still 3 minutes and 30 seconds old. Nelson called a timeout. The score between the two teams was 14:21, with the Warriors trailing by 7 points.

The Warriors are good at running and gunning, while the Jazz like to play positional and are very good at positional warfare.

A warrior who runs fast is not afraid of anyone when he goes crazy.

But as the Warriors' speed dropped, their advantage was gone. Their offensive firepower was obviously lacking, and their shooting accuracy was much lower.

If the Jazz keep controlling the slow pace, the Warriors will be in trouble in this game, and may even be defeated by a big score in the end.

Yue Yi, who was sitting on the bench, recalled in his mind that in this game, the Warriors lost to the Jazz by a huge score.

"Yue, you will come on stage later."Old Nelson said.

After ten preseason games, with his super high mid-range shooting percentage, Yue Yi is no longer the water cooler keeper at the end of the bench for the Warriors. His playing order is behind Belinelli. Before.

Ellis, the starting shooting guard, is very strong in breakthroughs, but his shooting is not stable. He can make shots no matter what, but he is really strong when he shoots. , shrinking the inside defense, Ellis can no longer easily break into the inside, and his shooting accuracy is not good in this quarter. The referee's whistle sounded, and Yue Yi stepped onto the court.

The weakest one, but there are still countless pairs of eyes watching Yue Yi on the court.

Because there are enough Chinese fans

, Big Beard is still on the court. Yue Yi moves actively after coming on the court. Taking a step outside at a 45-degree angle to the left of the free throw line, Yue Yi successfully ran into an open space with the help of a screen from power forward Harrington. When the ball arrived, Yue Yi received the ball in a timely manner.

Basketball, without making any adjustments, take off, support your elbows, press your wrists, and the basketball will draw an arc.

""Wha" the basketball hit the net, and Yue Yi scored 2 points with a mid-range shot in the NBA. In the CTV live room, Director Zhang said:"Well done, young man, you made this shot. No matter how you perform next, just log in." Judging from the scoring data in the first game of the NBA League, Yue Yi surpassed Dayao Yao that year."

Yao Yao in 2002, despite his status as the number one pick, swallowed zero in the first game.

Coach Zhang is highly respected in the basketball commentary world. If he teases him now, no one will criticize him.

Yang Jian:"Yes, Yue Yi His mid-range shot is indeed very accurate, and it may become his label in the future."

Director Zhang:"For us Chinese fans, the performance of this young man Yue Yi may be more important than the victory or defeat between the two teams. Yang

Jian:"Yes, personally, I hope Yue Yi can give me a surprise." But fans, don’t expect too much. After all, he is just a rookie, and it is already a big breakthrough to be able to step on the court."

Yang Jian:"Director Zhang, can you predict whether Yue Yi will score in this game?. Coach

Zhang:"I think there will be more points, one more.""

Yang Jian:" Audience friends, let's wait and see... Wow, Deron's dunk is really beautiful."

Director Zhang:"Yes, this dunk is going to be a top ten goal as expected. Biedrins was a step too late to cover up."

While the two were discussing Yue Yi's score, Deron on the court went straight to the penalty area after the screen and dunked Warriors center Biedrins.

The Delta Center Arena was filled with excitement. This is known as the Devil's home court. In the arena, the enthusiasm of the fans was very high.

After a dunk, the passion was ignited, and the Jazz players were full of energy.

They successfully defended against the Warriors' three attacks, and they scored two goals again. At 16-27, the Warriors fell behind by double digits before the first quarter was over.

Yue Yi didn't get a shot in the Warriors' three attacks.

He was still just a rookie, and he was far from getting the attention of the veteran players. Trust, let alone rely on.

In addition , Yue Yi's offensive methods are simple and he basically has no ability to attack independently. When there is no open space, he can only pass the ball in his hands.

Now it is the regular season. , It’s no longer like the preseason, running in and out of tactics. The opponent will not give you open shots again and again.

Yue Yi works very hard on the defensive end, and he still doesn’t stop on the offensive end. Even if the ball can't reach his hands, he keeps moving, and although there are few opportunities, there are still some.

But if he doesn't run to create opportunities for himself, even if the ball is passed to his hand, he still has no chance to take action.

With only 18 seconds left in the first quarter, the Warriors had the ball and Yue Yi's efforts to keep running were not in vain. After the Jazz came on the bench, their defense dropped and Yue Yi got the ball in the penalty area. Got an open opportunity, Big Beard made a pass, Yue Yi took another shot and scored. At the end of the first quarter, Yue Yi made two shots and scored 4 points, while the Warriors trailed by 13 points at 21:34.

The team's own offensive firepower did not turn on, but the Jazz got a lot of easy scoring opportunities on the defensive end, allowing the slow-paced Jazz to score 34 points in one quarter.

This was not the later small ball era. , this kind of score is difficult for even a team like the Warriors that does not focus on defense to accept.

Nelson was furious.
