Because of Lin Han’s comeback, the defensive strength of the Jazz can no longer be described by one or two grades. It should be said that this team’s outside defensive strength has been qualitatively improved. When pressed, the Jazz outside, which was almost exploded by the Rockets, once again became like a copper wall!

In particular, Sam Cassell, the young rocket point guard, performed extremely well in the last game. Although this game was a starter, after the first attack was successfully defended by Lin Han directly, this The Rockets' point guard became quiet for a while!

This is not to say that Kassel's psychological quality is not high, but there is really no way. Although his strength is very good, pass, control and attack are very good, but his breakthrough and three points have not been polished. Top level, in this case, he can only play jumpers in the middle distance, even if he can get rid of Russell, when he is in the middle distance jumper, most of the entire range of the stadium is covered by Lin Han, in this case It is inevitable that he hesitates on the offensive end!

Anyone who meets Lin Han’s incredible defense on the first attack is hard to really find his confidence in a short time!

In this case, it directly led to the fact that although the Rockets can slightly break through the Jazz's pressing defense, this team's efficiency on the offensive end is not so high. Before Olajuwon pulled out a singles, With other Rockets players there is still no way to fully open the offensive, so when the game started, when the Rockets team with great confidence to beat the Jazz in this game, this team actually It has fallen behind from the beginning!

Therefore, when seeing the Rockets players continue to sit back and run on the court under the defense of the Jazz, the Rockets coach Tom Janovich on the sidelines was a bit dull. I thought Lin Han would bring great changes to his team after returning. I just didn't expect such a big change and deterrent.

Although the role of Drexler in this game is not so important, the chances of holding the ball and attacking are not high, which is why Lin Han has a lot of energy to help defend. But even so, Drexler is a superstar. When a player is defending a superstar, he can still have such a terrible deterrent in assisting. This is already a bit ruined. This makes the Rockets head coach think of the Bulls’ Pippen. At this time, Lin Han and Pippen are probably not inferior at all? Even more defensively oppressive!

"This guy?!"

Looking at Lin Han, who is almost ubiquitous on the defensive end and scares the Rockets' outside players, Tom Janovic has a ugly face, since he has coached nba for such a long time. In the entire NBA, only Lin Han can make his rocket so miserable. Even Jordan can’t do it at the beginning. It can be said that other players besides Olajuwon of his team are almost Lin Han made a shadow. First, Maxwell, the first team's first shooter, was scared by Lin Han. He didn't dare to shoot in front of Lin Han, and then the young forward Robert Holly was faced by Lin Han. He scored more than 60 points in a single game, and was directly collapsed by Lin Han on the court. As for the team's last arrival, such an outside core as Drexler. This Rockets player was so miserable that Lin Han made this series miserable, and now when he comes to Kassel, Tomjanovich is really full of resentment against Lin Han at this time!

In an nba ruled by a veteran. The appearance of a player like Lin Han has made Tom Janovic not knowing what to say, especially when the outside players who see the Rockets on the court are somewhat stunned when facing Lin Han. So.

He would not blame his players for their lack of willpower. This is not a problem of willpower, but the team has no advantage as a whole and has been pressed to play, even if they have the fighting spirit, they can’t play it out. This overall suppressed atmosphere, coupled with Lin Han’s deterrent to them. It's normal for players to be hesitant and uncertain, if the Rockets are in full swing. Even Lin Han’s deterrent is useless, just like the last game. When the Jazz dominated the situation, didn't Mola Olajuwon's Malone play very tough even if he had always been afraid?

"Jerry, great, we will be able to win this game!"

Of course, at this time, the Rockets head coach Tom Janovic is really helpless. After he made the final staff adjustment, although there is an effect, but this effect is not enough to change the general trend of the game. This is a An embarrassing thing, and on the other side, the Jazz bench, after watching Lin Han return to the team, the team once again showed unparalleled athleticism and talent on the defensive side, as a team assistant Coach, Mayfair Johnson almost jumped up at this time!

Everyone knows the importance of this game. This game is arguably the most important game in this series. There is not much room for adjustment on both sides. In this case, whoever wins is the real one. The stronger team, the Jazz, is now leading 2 to 1, but if the game loses, it will be tied. Although the Jazz can adjust slightly in the future, it is also dangerous.

In this case, before the start of the game, Jerry Sloan and him were under a lot of pressure, especially Jerry Sloan. When the Jazz won the Rockets in the first two games, Jerry Sloan's criticized voices were all gone. All became praise and praise for him, and after losing in the last game because he did not have Lin Han, the Jazz coach was not criticized by experts in the United States, but the media Sneers and sarcasm are still everywhere, for example, what kind of nanny coach, no player can not play their own tactics and so on.

Although it has been said that Jerry Sloan has been trying to become a nanny-type head coach recently, it does not want him to accept such a title. After all, he is only trying to improve himself now, not I want to set myself up, and some cynicism is indeed a bit too much for the current Jerry Sloan, but who made the Jazz coach without Lin Han. The team lost so badly in the last game, it was simply two different teams.

Although it is said that Lin Han's return to the team to win the game can not completely wash away some of his controversy. But as long as the team can win, no one will say much. After all, after May Jackson's three consecutive championships, who will stare at him all day and say he is a nanny?

Therefore, when Jerry Sloan on the sidelines saw the situation in the first quarter of the game once again returned to the rhythm he wanted, the head coach of the Jazz was also very excited.

Especially when the Jazz came off the court with a 22-16 score at the end of the first quarter of the game, the Jazz coach even rarely got up to meet these off the court Player.

"The Jazz and Rockets have excellent defenses in this game, but the Rockets need to improve their offensive efficiency now, before Olajuwon can't pull out of the attack. The Rockets others need to do better, otherwise this I am afraid they will lose in a game!"

When the first quarter ended, Larry Bird said with a smile as he watched both starters get off the court.

Judging from the game between the two sides in the first quarter, the two sides played very fiercely in this game, which is considered to be a full battle. Although the Jazz recovered their pressing defense, because Olajuwon died in the first quarter. There is no individual offense. In this case, the Jazz team, except Lin Han, played a few minutes of pressing defense. Basically, there was no more pressing, the two sides entered the regular offensive and defensive battle,

Although the Jazz are not pressing anymore. However, because Lin Han’s defensive range on the periphery is too great, when Lin Han Linhan can assist in a very large range, other Jazz outside players can certainly rest assured of assisting the inside and assisting Olajuwon, because They knew that even if he didn't keep up with the defender, Lin Han could help them to make up for their positions. In this case, even the Jazz started to play the regular lineup. Although the Rockets' offense has improved slightly, it has not improved much. It can be said that because of the presence of Lin Han, the defense of the Jazz played a very high level.

And the same. Although the Rockets' offense is restricted, the defensive team's performance is also impeccable, because Olajuwon is the most defensive deterrent player in the league and their outside defense strength is also great, such as That was a constant pinch against Lin Han. Drexler led the defense, and others came to pinch, as to whether he would let go of other Jazz players, and the other Jazz players who were let go have the ball outside. After shooting, if you want to get to the basket to complete the attack on Olajuwon, that is dreaming.

Drexler is one of the few players in the league who can keep up with Lin Han one-on-one. In this case, the Rockets did a good blow to Lin Han. Lin Han couldn’t finish it before before. Own offense.

And when Lin Han was caught in this game, the Jazz's offensive focus came to Malone's side unexpectedly. Although Malone's offense is also very good, when Malone's most offensive is in the middle and long range, In fact, the Rockets are not very afraid, just like this game, although the Jazz scored better in the first quarter, scored 22 points, but in the face of the Jazz, this kind of defensive efficiency is already very against the sky!

Because Lin Han only played 4 times in the first quarter of the game, and scored 5 points on 2 of 4 shots. It can make a scoring man like Lin Han only score 5 points in the first quarter, which can definitely be regarded as extremely Succeeded!

Therefore, although the game fell behind as soon as it opened, the Rockets were successful in defensive strategy. The key is to watch the offense. Before Olajuwon did not take over the offense, the Rockets could not fall too far!

After all, anyone can tell that Olajuwon is ready to take over the game at the last moment! If there are too many behinds, even if Olajuwon can really take over the game at the last moment, there will be no physical problems, but whether he can catch up is also a question.

After all, if the Jazz lead too much in the last moment, the Rockets have not been able to put pressure on the Jazz in the score. It is impossible for the Jazz to play tight when the big score leads, and give Olajuwon a lot of The opportunity for singles, even after seeing Lin Han's huge deterrent on the outside defensive end, the Jazz can even press the defense without risking from now on.

According to Larry Bird, Tomjanovich will never be so arranged before the offense. For the Rockets in-out tactics, outside players cannot open the offense, which is also a tactical failure !

"Now Tom Janovich should be very headache? Didn't expect Lin Han is now an ordinary defensive strongman on the defensive end, already has a tactical deterrent. Already a tactical defensive player, in a certain way Has reached the level of Olajuwon"

Seeing Tomjanovich roaring at his players on the bench this time, Larry Bird said with a smile.

When the Jazz players come off the court. Because the score is leading, both Lin Han and other jazz players are very happy in this game. Even Malone, who had been very depressed in the previous series, was in a good mood at this time, because the Rockets pinched Lin Han in this game, and he long-lost became the team’s first offensive point, although he was a bit worried about Lin Han in the game. Because Tomjanovich’s instigation even threw in the face of a double-team, but it turned out that his worries were a bit superfluous. Lin Han was very calm on the court and didn’t seem to care much about his offensive performance. Malone is also very happy.

Even in the minds of the Jazz leader. If Lin Han concentrates on defense in the future, it will be enough to contribute a little on the offensive end, but it is obvious that Malone also knows that this idea cannot be realized.

However, even if this is the case, the face of the Jazz leader is quite good-looking, and he has been talking and laughing with Lin Han after the end of the game, which directly leads to the Jazz's current atmosphere is very good.

It's just that compared with the good atmosphere on the Jazz side, the Rockets side is completely different, when the Rockets starter is off the court. Tomjanovich sprayed directly at them, which was extremely rare.

So when the Rockets fans on the scene saw this scene on the big screen, they were a little shocked, but this should not blame Tomjanovic. This game he paved a lot before the game, but after this game he did not see the success he wanted. On the offensive end, they still have no way to completely break through the blockage Lin Lin caused them, just like the Jazz did not France breaks through Olajuwon. If it's just that, he'll forget it. The key is that the team's offensive players don't show the offensive efficiency of the Jazz if the game starts. Even if the Rockets players are scared by Lin Han’s deterrence, will Malone face Olajuwon at the beginning? Only after the game starts. After the two sides reached a plateau, Lin Han could not have such a deterrent force for each goal. The same is true for Olajuwon. In this case, Malone is slowly in the middle distance, and some places far away from Olajuwon started to attack, because Malone knew that this distance from Olajuwon could not come out, but Most of the Rockets players dare not do this, even if there is a certain distance from Lin Han, as long as Lin Han moves slightly in their direction, they dare not attack.

In this case, the Rockets are too passive on the offensive end. As for the defensive end, Tomjanovich's attempt to instigate Malone and Lin Han before the game was unsuccessful. The two guys did not Knowing why the division of labor in this game is so clear, it is clear that Tom Janovic has an impulse to the brick wall.

Wasn't it like this before?

But this time let Stockton know what Tomjanovich thought, and the Jazz point guard will laugh out loud.

Regardless of the offensive end or other aspects, Tomjanovic’s layout seems to have failed at this time. In this case, if he can still ignore it, it is impossible. Therefore, when the Rockets After the players got off the court, the coach who rarely sprayed people directly sprayed from the bench!

"Shoot, give me a shot whenever you have the chance!"

"What the **** are you afraid of? Can this guy cover you up every time?"

"Do you know how weak you were when you were on the court?!"

Of course, at this time when the Rockets and Jazz substitutes are on the court, Tomjanovich is still spraying these starting players on the court, which makes Lin Han sitting on the side feel very interesting.

Not to mention Tom Janovic, even many other grumpy head coaches rarely turn on the hair dryer directly on the court, at least for the first time for Lin Han.

"It seems the Rockets are really anxious"

Lin Han looked at the Rockets player who was being roared by Tom Janovic with a smile on his face.

Of course, when Lin Han was watching Tomjanovich training on the sidelines, the Rockets and Jazz substitutes on the court were a little difficult to play. I have to say that since Elliott and After David Wesley came to power. The Jazz's bench lineup is still no longer a weakness. Although David Wesley is not playing well in the regular season, Elliott has gradually entered the state. Of course, although the Jazz's bench is now without any problems. But the Rockets are not bad. Under the leadership of Maxwell and Mario Avery, this team's bench is also very good.

Therefore, after the two teams played off the bench, when the starting players of the two sides played again, the score of the two sides became 34 to 29. The difference between the two sides is still within the acceptable range of both sides!

Originally according to the previous games, such a difference. The Jazz are definitely going to press the whole game, but this game because the Jazz did really well on the defensive end, plus because of the existence of Kassel, the half-time pressing defense is also very effective, but because No one can limit the point of Sam Cassell, so pressing is flawed. After all, there is only one Stockton, and Stockton can only be between Kenny Smith and Sam Cassell. Pick one, Kenny Smith and Sam Cassell are both 1.91 point guards. Both are much taller than Stockton and much shorter than Russell. Stockton posted Kassel for a period of time in the last game. This guy is really good at ball control. Although Stockton can keep up with the footsteps and experience, he is also unable to completely pinch Kassel, but Russell is old by Kenny Smith. The ball ruff is choking enough, and a flawed pressing defense is almost as effective as the normal defensive effect now. Even if it is good or limited, the Jazz really don't need to consume a lot of physical energy to press the Rockets at this time. After all, who can’t see Olajuwon now pretending to be dead and waiting for a sudden force in the second half!

of course. Olajuwon is now putting more energy on the defensive end, as is Lin Han at this time. It is not yet time for a decisive battle for both sides!

However, although the two sides have not yet fully exerted their strength in the first half of the final game, it was because of Tomjanovich's "hair dryer" on the bench when the starting players of both sides appeared on the court again. Almost everyone can see some changes in the Rockets.

"what?"

When Lin Han was sticking to Drexler as usual, even if the whole team did not press hard, he also tried to stick to Drexler, and saw Russell under the assist defense. In Olajuwon, when Olajuwon did not attack the ball between Pollinis and Russell without a strong attack and passed the ball to the hand of Kassel outside the three-point line, this time Lin Han was like usual The same, still staring at Drexler, but deliberately moved a step towards the direction of Kassel at the top of the arc, which was intentional by Lin Han, even to let Kassel see them, Lin John even deliberately made a lot of movements.

To put it bluntly, even though Lin Han's physical fitness is very good, this long-distance sprint defense is still very exhausting. Lin Han can't really be in place every time, there will always be true and false, so this is exactly the case The truth was that the Rockets players were scared enough in the first quarter, which eventually led them to turn on the hair dryer directly by Tomjanovic.

But what surprised Lin Han was that when Lin Han walked out of this lateral movement, Kassel didn’t hesitate like before and didn’t wait until Russell had the chance to return to defense. On the three-point line, he bit his teeth and pulled up decisively and threw out the basketball in his hand!

Seeing Kassel throw this three-pointer, although he didn't hit, Lin Han was still a little surprised. Even at this time, Tomjanovich had stood on the sidelines and applauded for Kassel. It seemed It was like Kassel made a shot.

"It seems that the Rockets have now recovered"

When Kassel gritted his teeth and threw the basketball in his hand in Linhan's fright, Larry Bird on the sidelines also smiled excitedly.

This game is due to the Rockets' double point guard tactics, plus a superstar like Drexler, so the Jazz's tight defense is not so threatening to them, the Jazz is discovering this After that, there was no pressing, and eventually the two sides became a comparison of conventional tactics. When playing conventional tactics, the Rockets have a little advantage from the regular season. Although Lin Han's defense became better in the playoffs, and even reached a level of strategic defensive player with Olajuwon, but even so. When playing conventional tactics, both sides have the same defensive strength or offensive strength.

There should be no situation in the first quarter as the two sides are behind by 6 points after the starter. It can be seen that the fear of these Rockets outside players for Lin Han is even higher than that of Marlon and other Jazz insiders. Wang's fear. Otherwise, such a situation is impossible.

From the present point of view, although Kassel still has a little psychological fear, but dare to take action, this is a good thing. After all, it is a young player. Even if he is really mature, he can’t ask for so much. Kassel was able to deal with Linhan's intimidation. Naturally, other rocket veterans are not able to flinch.

Of course, although the two concepts of being able to make decisive shots and being able to score are completely different, just like the Rockets letting Russell go for Lin Lin at this time, Russell also made a decisive shot, but this In the regular season, three shots per game can hit a three-pointer, which is the level of three in one. Although the shooting rate looks similar to Van Exel and Maxville, but the shooter and non-shooter are deterrent It's completely different. Although they have similar shooting percentages, Russell may not be able to make 2 of 6 throws. He may not be able to hit 30 if he throws 100. For a player like Russell, the opponent can let go. Because they knew that Russell wouldn’t even get 10 even if he threw 30 of the previous 6 out of 6, and the Rockets’ shooters would be different. The Jazz really let them go, and it’s really possible Problem, so Tomjanovich’s request is simple. You just need to shoot, even if you can’t get it in the beginning, but as a shooter. There will always be times!

In fact, when the game restarted in the second quarter. Although the Rockets did experience a short period of unfitness, the Jazz and Rockets who were playing conventional tactics finally came to the same level this time!

have to say. The strength of these two teams is indeed very good. Although many people thought that the two teams played conventional tactics and the team’s Rockets could dominate, but in the first half of the game, when Lin Han no longer showed himself on the offensive end, When Malone and Stockton began to be the core of the team's offensive tactics, although the team has not played this pure pick-and-roll tactic for a long time, the tacit understanding between the two is still sufficient. In this case, in teamwork Without the participation of Lin Han, the Jazz did not lose much to the Rockets!

Although it is said that because Lin Han did not participate too much in the Jazz's offense, the Jazz's offensive is very rigid, there is not much talent at all, even if the Jazz have dropped a grade in the explosiveness of the score, but one In terms of the current situation, Lin Han faced a pinch, and he did indeed stand in favor of the Jazz. This is the reason why Tomjanovich's teeth are tickling on the sidelines, and it is also the reason that surprised Jerry Sloan.

"I didn't expect Lin Han to really put all his energy on the defensive end? This kid can really suppress his offensive desire [hope]?"

When the starting players on both sides were once again inseparable~www.wuxiaspot.com~Larry Bird on the sidelines saw Lin Han who had been fully defensive and assisted and almost gave up the offense after seeing the start of the second quarter. The Celtics' former ball king is also somewhat stunned.

It seems this kid really wants to win this game?

At the end of the halftime game, in the boos of the fans, when the Jazz ended the first half with a score of 45 to 41, looking at the No. 8 of the jazz team, Larry Bird was secretly in his heart. think.

8 points, 10 rebounds, 4 blocks, 2 steals, and 2 assists. This is Lin Han's statistics at halftime. He scored less than double at halftime. This is a miracle for Lin Han!

And when Larry Bird saw the Rockets' super center data again, it was also stunned, 8 points, 10 rebounds, 4 blocks, 2 steals, 6 assists? !

Except for the assist data, the data of Lin Han and Olajuwon are exactly the same? !

After a short stupefaction, Larry Bird, who had come to his mind, smiled thoughtfully when he saw Olajuwon and Lin Han walking down the court. (To be continued)
