NBA: Trading Westbrook at the beginning shocked Lao Zhan

But what control can the Jazz have?

Their lineup does not match the Lakers' lineup at all. This is a matter of the height of the lineup and the characteristics of the core players.

It's hard for a clever woman to cook without rice. Even if the head coach of the Jazz is capable, relying on such a lineup, he really can't make any adjustments.

In desperation, the head coach of the Jazz can only use surprise soldiers!
After the start of the second quarter, the Jazz sent a five small lineup with full offensive combat power, and replaced Gobert with Azubuike as the center forward!

Obviously, the head coach of the Jazz wants to use such a lineup to play a wave, and use an offensive full of offensive power to defeat the Lakers.

Coincidentally, the head coach of the Jazz and the head coach of the Lakers Vogel thought of going together, and Vogel also sent a set of five small lineups with full attack power!
Obviously, Vogel wants to use this aggressive five-small lineup to completely open the Jazz's point difference in the second quarter!

In this way, the second quarter of the game became a direct collision of the five small lineups of the two teams!

However, although it is said to be a five-small lineup, the Lakers' five-small lineup is still higher than the overall height of the Jazz's lineup, and their physical fitness is even better!
The current Lakers team is different from the old Lakers team at the beginning of the season. It is no exaggeration to say that there are more young and potential players in the current Lakers team.

This set of five small lineups is composed of young people, Brogdon, Rivers, Thick Eyebrows, Boucher, Covington, the average age of this lineup is not very high.

This is the change brought by Lin Fei!

In front of a stronger five-small lineup like the Lakers, the Jazz had no power to parry at all in the second quarter. They were cleanly hit by the Lakers for 3 consecutive goals at the beginning of the game.

Seeing that the point difference was about to widen again, the head coach of the Jazz sighed helplessly, and then, taking advantage of the Lakers player's free throw, he sent Clarkson on the bench and replaced Royce O'Neal .

Clarkson, from the Philippines, nicknamed "Philippine Jordan", is very good in singles. He belongs to the type of player who is a nerve knife. If he plays well, he is "Philippine Jordan". Philippine Qiao Shan".

Moreover, Clarkson's defensive ability is also very weak, which can be said to be a loophole. Letting him play is a double-edged sword!

Obviously, the head coach of the Jazz chose to let Clarkson play at this time, just for the last fight. He is betting that Clarkson tonight is "Philippine Jordan"!
At this time on the basketball court, after the Lakers Brogdon made a free throw, the point difference quickly came to 19 points.

The Jazz have the ball.

Azubuike sent the baseline ball, Mitchell took the ball and dribbled to the frontcourt.

As the boss of the team, Mitchell also knew what the head coach of the Jazz meant by sending Clarkson on the court. He was also happy to give Clarkson a chance. He just took a break and passed the basketball to Clarkson as soon as he arrived in the frontcourt. hands.

Clarkson was facing Rivers' defense at this time. Without hesitation, Clarkson directly used the rhythm, quickly dribbled through and then pulled back. Defense, Clarkson didn't mean to pass the ball at all, and chose to throw it directly!

The basketball crossed a high parabola in the air and fell heavily into the basket!

Clarkson scored 2 points at the start.

The ball returned to the Lakers, and Brogdon held the ball.

Facing Mitchell's defense in front of him, Brogdon didn't hesitate. He passed Mitchell continuously and went inside the Jazz. It was in the hands of Boucher who was open on the outside.

Boucher caught the ball and shot, but he didn't grasp it in the end. The basketball missed the basket and was caught by Jazz insider Azubuike.

After Azubuike grabbed the rebound, he passed the ball directly to Clarkson.

Clarkson dribbles quickly downfield, clearly trying to hit a fastball.

After dribbling the ball to the Lakers three-point line, Clarkson took advantage of the unsteady footsteps of Rivers who was chasing him, and directly pulled up and shot.

Three-point shot, hit the basket straight, Clarkson scored another 3 points!
Feeling hot!

"It's okay, buddy, let me deal with him later!"

After Rivers was scored on the head by Clarkson again, he looked a little disappointed. Teammate Covington noticed this, and quickly ran over and patted Rivers on the shoulder to comfort him.

Listening to Covington's comfort, Rivers shook his head slightly, and said with a smile: "No, buddy, trust me, let me guard him again, I can guarantee that he won't score on my head!"

Looking at Rivers' serious face, Covington was very relieved, smiled and touched Rivers' head: "I believe in you, buddy!"

At the same time, Brogdon received a pass from Boucher on the baseline and was about to hold the ball across the frontcourt.

When he saw teammates Covington and Rivers still standing there, Brogdon frowned slightly, and then quickly shouted:

"Hey guys, get to the frontcourt and get your spots!"

Hearing what Brogdon said, Rivers and Covington nodded at the same time, and then hurried to the frontcourt.

Subsequently, Brogdon took the ball to the frontcourt and began to organize and deploy.

Now that Clarkson's hand feeling has risen, in order to stop him, Brogdon decided to find Clarkson to play this ball!

It just so happens that Clarkson also belongs to the level of defensive loopholes, and it is easy for Brogdon to beat Clarkson.

Thinking of this, Brogdon quickly called a pick-and-roll, wanting to replace the defender in front of him with Clarkson!
But the Jazz are also aware of Brogdon's intentions, that is, they won't change you, even if they give you a chance to shoot.

Facing the defense of the Jazz, Brogdon was a little helpless, and could only choose to choose a three-point shot in the gap that appeared in the pick-and-roll.

It's a pity that the hand feels bad. Brogdon didn't score the goal in the end, and the ball returned to the hands of the Jazz again.

After Clarkson held the ball and rushed to the frontcourt, Clarkson met Rivers' defense.

Rivers defended the ball very seriously, and Clarkson swayed left and right without leaving an open space!

But Clarkson didn't intend to pass the ball to his teammates at all, and directly made a horizontal jumper and made a three-pointer.

Facing Clarkson's unreasonable shot choice, Rivers didn't react for a while, and when he did, Rivers jumped up quickly.

The defense was fairly timely, and Rivers stretched out his arm to give Clarkson a lot of interference!

But the fiery Clarkson couldn't stop it at all. Even if Rivers defended his face, Clarkson still completed the shot and scored a three-pointer! !
