Chapter 22 022: Zijin Double Stars Break the Utah Iron Army
022: Zijin Twin Stars Break the Utah Iron Army
A five-point lead is not much in a basketball game. Sometimes it only takes two offensive and defensive transitions to turn the leading side into the lagging side, and the originally lagging side can also be called the leading side.

Before the start of the fourth quarter, Qin Tao patted the tactical board, stared and shouted: "The most critical 2 minutes of the game have come, and your performance is crucial. As long as you give the main players enough rest time , we will win this match.”

Qin Tao looked very anxious when dealing with the players, but in fact this kid was very calm.After the start of the fourth quarter, the Lakers' five-point lead was not only completely eroded by the Jazz, but the Jazz even overtook the Lakers by 3 points.

"The people of Los Angeles gave up resistance?"

"What are the people of Los Angeles playing?"

"Fix the match? This is too fake!"

Even the fans of the Energy Solutions Center stopped cheering, they couldn't understand it!The Lakers' Kobe and Butler are sitting off the court, but the Lakers' scores are falling behind more and more, which makes the audience feel puzzled.

"The new coach of the Lakers, Qin, what exactly does he want to do? Now that the team is falling behind more and more, he can still sit like a god, and he is so confident?" Hendry said very puzzled.

In Los Angeles, Buck watches live games on his slim, oversized LCD TV.At this moment, his face was like a small chrysanthemum in full bloom, and that smile was indescribably brilliant. 'Boy, fight with me?No way, hey!Ginger is still old and spicy, how can you beat that old fox Sloan?Lao Tzu, I was intimidated by your confidence at the time, but now it seems that I made the right choice by agreeing to your bet.After your kid apologizes in public, the Lakers will only be ranked second in Los Angeles.Our newspaper sales, haha! '

Sitting on the sidelines, Sloan frowned. The head coach for more than ten years, Sloan is not a rookie like Qin Tao.This old guy has a way of guessing his opponent's mind.The current game is played intermittently, and the Lakers players have been fouling non-stop. From this point, Sloan has seen some clues.

'Buy time for the main force?You trust your Kobe that much, Butler?People who are not used to Utah's plateau climate will not only lose their physical strength quickly, but also recover slowly.How much time can you give them to recover?Now I'm 6 points ahead. Sloan looked at Qin Tao, who was sitting leisurely on the sidelines, "Young man, you are still young." '

After thinking about it, Sloan waved his hand and replaced the Jazz's former leader, the Russian, Kirilenko, and completely handed over the offense to Boozer inside.So far, Boozer has scored 33 points and a large double-double with 14 rebounds.

'A first-class insider can play super-class data.What kind of statistics can the super-class center play against our inside line? 'Qin Tao scolded in his heart, but the scolding is the scolding, the lineup still needs to be adjusted.

Qin Tao used Divac to replace Cook, who had already fouled five times. This soft power forward pitcher who could not even foul in the past learned to foul after being yelled at by Qin Tao.While defending the opponent's inside attack, Qin Tao then replaced Butler and Kobe.

'The wait is for you to replace Kirilenko. Qin Tao stood up and thought disdainfully, "AK47?"Just sitting down to breathe or something, just adjusted and then forced to play, it's time for me to grab points. '

Which of these main Jazz players played more than 35 minutes?Especially Kirilenko, from the start of the game to now he has rested for 3 minutes.A long game and then suddenly got a chance to rest, and then he has to play again before he has a hot ass, so his rhythm will be out of order for a short time.

But Sloan did not replace Kirilenko, he was going to let Kirilenko rest for a minute or two before going on.But this was completely within Qin Tao's expectation. "Brothers, seize the opportunity and attack me! The victory definitely belongs to Los Angeles." Qin Tao's roar once again inspired the Lakers players.Kobe and Butler, who couldn't hold back for a long time, came out like ferocious beasts that had been sleepy for a long time.

As soon as Kobe received the ball from outside the three-point line, he immediately pulled up and shot. The Jazz's defensive players didn't even touch Kobe's hair. The ball flew from the top of his fingertips and went straight into the basket.A super long-range three-pointer hit the morale of the Lakers.

Butler made a steal from the backcourt and made a long pass to Kobe Bryant. Peter Pan flew into the sky like a rainbow, and smashed his right hand to the basket like a battle axe.Bryant's two consecutive wonderful performances, even the never-ending boos of the Energy Solutions Center have gradually died down.There were even faint cheers.In just 26 seconds, the Lakers narrowed the point difference to 1 point.Sloan had to replace Kirilenko to strengthen the defense against Kobe and Butler.

However, Kirilenko, who only rested for 26 seconds off the court, has not adjusted his rhythm yet.He will naturally suffer a disadvantage against Kobe and Butler, who have been preparing for a long time.

After Kobe scored five points in a row, Butler began to show off his power. He did not disappoint Qin Tao's "basic set", one three-pointer, one 2+1, and succeeded in hitting three-pointers.The morale of the Lakers was completely inspired.Although the Jazz, known as the Iron Army, still did not give up, Okur's three-point power began to show, and Boozer also gave fire support inside.But the stalemate between the two sides was broken after Odom reappeared in the 5th minute of the fourth quarter.

Odom played strong after playing, resulting in Okur's foul.After making both free throws, the Lakers have extended their lead to 6 points.The two sides have been competing for about 5 points before. After Odom played, the Lakers strengthened the inside defense. Boozer's attack failed, and the Lakers immediately counterattacked.

Bryant dribbled toward the Jazz's hoop, and Butler waited on the sidelines.Spanning the entire basketball court is a matter of seconds for Bryant and Butler, and in high-speed motion, Bryant distributes the ball to Butler who sprints down the sideline.A 2-on-2 trend formed in the frontcourt.Butler stopped suddenly, attracting the defense of Arroyo and Kirilenko. After the sudden change of rhythm, Butler threw the ball to the top of the basket. Kobe went straight into the sky like a sharp sword, and he pressed the ball hard. into the basket. With 8 points, the Lakers fixed the lead at 5 points.

The next thing they have to do is to extend their lead to double digits.Although the Jazz did not allow the Lakers to expand their advantage by double digits with their inherited iron will, the victory of the game is still farther and farther away from them.At the final whistle, the Lakers defeated the Jazz 107 to 100 and achieved three consecutive victories after the coaching change.

……

"F..." An American curse sounded in a mansion in Los Angeles.Buck slapped his oversized LCD TV with a slap.The old man lost the bet with Qin Tao, and it seemed that he couldn't bear this kind of blow...
