Chapter 624 Fighting Hard in Salt Lake City V

Boozer landed on the floor in a state of embarrassment, and to make matters worse, he hugged his leg, looking very painful.

Lying on the ground, Jazz players surrounded him, Yang Di blinked, he couldn't be so fragile, right?

Fans screamed in the audience. No matter how much they booed Yang Di, this is not the time to target him. Seeing that the playoffs are coming, nothing can happen to Boozer!
The fans clasped their hands in prayer and stood up from the benches.

"are you ok?"

The team doctor came over, leaned over and asked Boozer.

Beads of sweat dripped down from Boozer's forehead, and his face was pale.

"Where does it hurt? Knee? Ankle?"

The team doctor's face was very dignified. Judging by Boozer's posture, it should be a serious injury. God, the knee and ankle are the most vulnerable parts of an athlete, which is enough to ruin a player's career.

The Jazz players around also showed worried looks.

"No, I just," Boozer said in agony, "cramped. My calf cramped. It hurt."

"Cut~"

Deron and the others rolled their eyes. At first, looking at Boozer's appearance, they thought that his time limit was approaching, but who knew that the change of direction turned out to be just a cramp.

The team doctor lifted Boozer's leg and stretched it, and Boozer limped to the sidelines.

For the key goal, the referee also blew Yang Di's good cap. Boozer took Yang Di for nothing, and he didn't know if he would be able to play in the second half.

The fans don't care so much, they only know that Yang Di injured their head player, the team's top scorer.

"The executioner!"

"Oriental Butcher!"

Unceremonious tones came from all directions, Yang Di was very strong in his heart, and his face was still calm.

At the end of halftime, the Warriors led the Jazz by 54 points 50 to 4.

This battle in Salt Lake City is destined to be a very difficult battle, not only because the Jazz are a difficult bone in the West, but more importantly, the Warriors themselves have some physical discomfort when they come to the plateau to compete.

With the addition of the Devil's home court, the Jazz's combat power has improved several levels.

Ray Allen's outside shot has not been opened, the Warriors and the Jazz are very close in points, and in the third quarter, it has become a very anxious tug of war.

Fortunately, Boozer was injured, Yang Di reduced the task of defending with the ball, and focused on assisting defense.

A little later in the middle of the third quarter, Deron passed Monta Ellis and made a layup with the ball. Yang Di came from the side and slapped the ball out of the baseline.

Yang Di's 5th block in this field, erected a no-fly zone.

Deron served to the wing Kirilenko.

The Russian is very fast. After Deron points over, he has an advantage in rhythm. He raises his hand and makes three threats and strides past Danny Granger who is defending him.

Kirilenko towed the ball for a layup, laying up with the hand away from the basket before Yang Di's help came.

Hit the board into the frame, and even hit it under the confrontation.

"It's all there!"

Yang Di turned his head and slapped the ball hard unhappily.

But unexpectedly, the force was a bit too heavy, the basketball hit the foot and flew out, roaring like a cannonball, and went straight to the referee who was walking beside him.

The referee turned his head, barely turned his body sideways, and was hit by a basketball on his back.

Yang Di's eyes widened, and he instinctively felt something was wrong.

Sure enough, the next moment, the referee stretched out his finger and pointed at Yang Di, blew his whistle, gestured with his hand, and made a gesture of technical foul.

Yang Di was stunned, and stood there staring blankly at the referee who rushed away angrily.

"Don't, calm down." Ray Allen grabbed Yang Di, for fear that Yang Di would do something irrational.

"I'm fine, I..." Yang Di just felt that he was a little wronged, and then he also felt that he was too stupid, why should he do so many movements that shouldn't be done.

"This season, the NBA officially promulgated a zero-tolerance rule. I don't know how many people have been called technical fouls for no reason. If you dare to question his penalty now, he will definitely give you another technical foul without mercy. You still Remember Tim Duncan? Sit on the bench laughing and get called a technical foul."

Of course Yang Di knew about the zero-tolerance rules promulgated before the start of this season. In order to strengthen the authority of the referee and ensure the smoothness of the game, the official system was forcibly promulgated. Sid Wallace even suffered a suspension and a fine because of too many technical fouls. Fortunately, he has entered the injury period. I don’t know if the Pistons used it to prevent him from getting technical fouls again. Foreign recruits.

Yang Di remembered that in the report at the beginning of the season, the statistics said that in the first 51 games, there were 104 technical fouls, 7 people were expelled, and only 7 games had no technical fouls.

It was only later that the technical fouls dropped sharply. Now the situation where players yell at the referee has disappeared, and the power of the referee has greatly increased.

Sometimes there will be some misunderstandings, like today, Yang Di felt that the referee must have misunderstood him.

Deron executes a free throw.

Boozer's performance in the first half was mediocre. Without Boozer, the Jazz did not collapse directly. They still played well with the Warriors. Kirilenko stood up and shot outside and inside. Scored 10 points to help the Jazz tie the score.

At the end of the third quarter, the two teams drew 75-75.

In the final quarter, Yang Di took a rest, and Montgomery gave David Lee and Biedrins enough playing time.

The two were indeed ferocious. In the matchup with Paul Millsap, there was not much difference in the offensive rebounds. Even Biedrins and Louis Williams partnered to complete an alley-oop dunk.

Relying on the excellent performance of the substitute players, the Warriors took a lead of about 5 points after the start of the fourth quarter.

Yang Di came on the stage, hit Millsap with his back, turned around and couldn't make a strong shot, and his shooting percentage also began to decline.

Ray Allen hit a 3-pointer at this time, and the Jazz fell even further behind. The two teams entered a bayonet battle, which was extremely fierce.

In the confrontation, Danny Granger received his fifth foul, and the defense shrank.

Montgomery called a timeout and told Danny Granger not to care about fouls, and if he lost his aggressiveness because he was worried about six fouls leaving the field, he would replace him with a stronger player.

Danny Granger was awe-inspiring, and he was not afraid of confrontation after playing, and fought with Kirilenko from the outside to the inside.

And sure enough, just before halftime, Danny Granger graduated with a full foul, and Montgomery replaced Matt Barnes, the Warriors' number one thug.

Barnes went on the court and continued to fight Kirilenko, and the Jazz was penetrated by Yang Di at this time.

The fans looked at the player tunnel eagerly, but they didn't wait for the bald and strong man who should follow the script and return from the king.
