Chapter 318 Sloan who drank fake wine

On the 28th and 29th, the first round of G1 games between the Eastern and Western Conferences was over, and the Jazz didn't care about other people's wins or losses, and their second game against the Nuggets was scheduled for the night of the 30th.

In the G1 game, the two sides fought back and forth, but the Nuggets in the G2 game lost frequently from the beginning. The nerve disorder on the outside line was off, and Chris went out. Ma Long, who broke out in the game, lost points in each of the four quarters.

Lafonso was directly blasted, and Malone scored 39+10; Mutombo was in a normal state, with 5 blocks in the audience, and the data was 18+11.

However, when Mutombo met Li Shengli, he seemed to have a sense of both Shengyu and He Shengliang, and the defense he had always been proud of was also torn apart. Li Shengli also had 5 caps, plus 28+18 The data.

Crotty on the other side, because Malone played so well, he once again conscientiously returned to being an invisible man and full-time defense, and his suppression of Chris was the third largest victory for the Jazz besides Li Shengli and Malone. Factors made the score between the two sides 80:100, and the Jazz got the match point in the first round.

……

On May 5, the third round of the first round.

All the pressure is on the Nuggets. Even at their own home court, the Nuggets players are quite nervous, and the fans at the Nuggets' home stadium, McNick Sports Arena, are also extremely excited, because they will lose another game. The Nuggets' playoff run is over.

Compared with the Nuggets, the current Jazz only wants to get off work earlier. This is not to underestimate the enemy but the Nuggets really have no hope of making a comeback. Throughout the history of the NBA, there has never been a black eight incident.

The first quarter of the game.

Nuggets coach Issel's lineup is really not new. The inside line is the inside line and the outside line is the outside line. When the formation is taken seriously and the perimeter defense is not too crazy, the Nuggets have not been able to play an explosive touch.

So the Nuggets in the second quarter changed their formation out of necessity.

For a long time, their offense has rarely hit the inside line, but when the outside shooting efficiency is not high, they have to bite the bullet and hit the inside line. The penalty area of ​​the game was full of people.

As you can imagine, there is no three-second limit on defense, and there are not too many three-point shots. Almost everyone is crowded within the three-point line. , What's more terrible is that this Nuggets home game also has a home whistle blessing.

Fortunately, under the defensive gate pulled by Li Shengli, the players who broke through the Nuggets suffered enough and beat everyone out with their strong bodies and blocked shots one after another. Got 6 fouls.

6 blocks + 3 fouls?

These two data can reflect the strength of defense, and even if it is 3 fouls that allow the Nuggets to get free throws, the Jazz will lead by 20 points after two quarters, because Li Shengli's defense and Malone's offense complement each other, the only bad thing is The news is that Li Shengli's foul counted 1 in the first quarter, and it reached 4 in the first half.

4 fouls in the core halftime, which is very terrible, but the Jazz leading by 20 points at halftime is as effective as a quick-acting life-saving pill, but even so, Jerry Sloan kept protesting to the referee, because the most of the 4 fouls At least 2 fouls were contested.

However, referees are referees, and they didn't dump Sloan at all. Several referees even wanted to give him a T, and the game continued like this.

……

In the third quarter, Sloan had no choice but to replace Li Shengli and use Felton to cooperate with Malone's offense. However, the Nuggets saw that Li Shengli, the big brother in the penalty area, was off the field, and the offensive inside became more and more fierce. The score was pulled back by 6 points in the first quarter, and they were 14 points behind and entered the fourth quarter.

The Nuggets are basically gone!

Jerry Sloan let several starters continue to play on the court, and he didn't know whether it was because of the big or other ideas. Even if the point difference in the fourth quarter was being chased by the Nuggets, he still kept Li Shengli by his side. , Let the players on the court play freely, and at this time, on the Jazz bench, Sloan and Li Shengli sat together, old and young.

"Li, what do you think of this game?" Sloan turned around and asked.

Li Shengli doesn't know what kind of medicine Sloan sells in the gourd. Although the fourth offense is embarrassing, yes, it makes sense if the third quarter is not played, but it can't be justified before the fourth quarter. Sloan is still asking at this point in time. What does he think? !

"We basically won and swept the Nuggets, that's it, nothing else!" Li Shengli responded with a stern look. With 6 minutes left in the game, the Jazz still led by 10 points, although the Nuggets were chasing points in the third and fourth quarters rhythm, but this rhythm is too slow to make up for the 20-point hole in the first half.

"That's right, you're right, we did win." Sloan said nonsense seriously, which made Li Shengli feel a little weird.

You must know that Sloan's style can be called vigorous and resolute. As the head coach, he scolds whoever can't fight well, and never turns his words. Even Malone and Stockton are not less scolded, and now it is meaningless to say something The nonsense, no matter what makes Li Shengli feel... Sloan is looking for something to say, or wants to say something else.

"Coach, do you have anything to say?"

"Of course, I'm waiting for you to ask me!"

"Damn it, when did you become so tactful?" Li Shengli scratched his head. After all, the players and coaches are the wage earners of the team, and as the absolute core of the Jazz, he has no restraint in talking to Sloan.

It feels like when high school is approaching graduation, facing the class teacher who tortured me, there is no limit anymore, and I even want to... beat him up!

"Let's just say it, anyway, I already know the worst news the Jazz gave me."

"Cough...it's nothing, I just want to say an apology to you." Jerry Sloan's rare old face blushed, the head coach's majesty swept the floor, and his voice was kept low for fear of being heard by the players next to him.

"Damn it, why don't you let me go to the field to brush up the data? Are you a little too busy?" Li Shengli waited for a long time, wondering why it was a big deal, but he didn't expect an apologetic old man to come, and Jie Li Sloan was panicking with embarrassment at first, and he couldn't calm down after being hurt by Li Shengli... I apologized so sincerely, you took me as a fart, and said I was idle?

"Okay, I won't scold you anymore!" Sloan glanced at Li Shengli, "Phew... you poor wandering boy, remember to get something for yourself next season, don't give it to your teammates like in the Jazz. It’s really stupid to use statistics and give Carl the scoring champion, you know? Although I understand that you have a good relationship, in the final analysis, people still have to think about themselves.”

"Are you finished?"

"Why, don't you have any insight?"

"I'm feeling a fart on a horse, but you let me play, the game is almost over!" Li Shengli went crazy, because Sloan's testimonials were not sensational at all, "Quickly call a timeout and let me play, don't you let me fight?" , I'm going to brush the data now!"

"No, you have to tell me your perception!"

"Did you take the wrong medicine today? If you want a fart, I will swipe the data for whoever is pleasing to the eye. No one cares. What are you doing, you let me play!"

……

In the end, the Jazz won the game, sweeping the Nuggets 3:0 to advance.

Sloan, who was self-willed once, seemed to have drunk fake wine, and he didn't let Li Shengli play after all. The old and the young sat together and quarreled. Thousands of fans felt a great humiliation.
