legendary basketball guard

Chapter 186 232, adjustment, sweep.

Playing against the Jazz, the Mavericks are still crushing in terms of hard power. In fact, Dillon Corbin has done his best.The guy who wants to play Alec Burks as a surprise player
Tyrone Corbin has done well enough, and last year was also because of the gap in strength.

One of his adjustments almost turned the Jazz into a team that can open [-]-[-] with the Mavericks. Of course, the difference is a bit much, but this does not prevent Rick Carlisle from thanking Tyrone Corbin again. Bean, Rick Carlisle may not have discovered that Alec Box has such an ability. The offensive talent is very good, and the Jazz may focus on training.

With such a person, you can only compete against Lin Xiao for a short period of time, and if you want to win the game by relying on the wind, unless you are jr Smith, you can't be stopped like Arenas.

Whether Lin Xiao is placed on the bench or in the main lineup, the Jazz can't limit him. Similarly, their interior is slightly stronger than the Mavericks, but the Mavericks' interior offense is stronger.

Soon the game was decided quickly. The Mavericks led by 13 points at halftime. After three quarters, the 24-point lead directly declared the end of the game. In the end, the Mavericks defeated the Jazz 116:94 and won 23 points. Points, won the second victory at home.

In the first two games of the first round of the playoffs, the Mavericks won easily. The gap in strength between them and the Jazz is too great.

In his performance in the preseason, Lin Xiao averaged 36 minutes per game, 26 points and 11 assists per game, and his performance was perfect.Compared with the previous two years, the efficiency is higher.

The third game will be held at the home of the Jazz, and no one wants to play away.Their fans are very fanatical, and they have always had a plateau climate.

Soon after the home press conference, Lin Xiao and others were flown directly to the Jazz's home court, Salt Lake City, by Rick Carlisle the next day.Instead of low morale, this Jazz team is as tenacious as ever.

They uttered nonsense in the media, claiming that they would beat the Mavericks, but Rick Carlisle did not give the players a rest time and went directly to the away game for training.They only have two days to get used to it, and it would be very difficult to win an away game here.

Salt Lake City used to be barren and uninhabited.It was not until 1847 that Brigham Young led a group of believers from the "Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints" to open up territory here and establish a new city. Compared with traditional teachings, the dogma proposed by Brigham Young was too much It was so horrifying that the believers shouted and beat everyone in the United States at that time.They had no choice but to keep concentrating here and seeking shelter.Over time, Salt Lake City became the base of Mormonism.

Since the composition of this city is so unified, it is natural that the fathers and villagers work together to fight against each other.As a player on the Jazz side, he must be popular and worshiped.To paraphrase Mr. Song Dandan's lines, "That scene was really full of gongs and drums, firecrackers blared, red flags waving, and crowds of people". On the contrary, as the hostile party, you will also encounter more terrible hatred.Just imagine, as long as the opponent catches the ball on the field, they will hear boos and trash talk all over the field. In this atmosphere, the performance will decline more or less.

In addition, the Jazz's geographical location is tricky. As a team in the Northwest Division, its geographical coordinates are not very close to other NBA teams.This means that whenever the Jazz sit at home, most of the visiting teams need to go through several hours of bumps before arriving.One side is exhausted from the journey, and the other is waiting for work at leisure. The gap in physical fitness also emerges from this.

From a more scientific point of view, even a seemingly easy flight journey will have a great impact on the players. Because the spine is in one posture for a long time, the tall basketball players will bear more and more pressure on the joints. The soft tissues on both sides of the spine are compressed and tense. Once the muscles are tense, the players are sore after hours of bumps.In addition, although the person is in a relatively static state during the flight, the vestibular nerve receptors in the inner ear responsible for balance and hearing will continuously send out stimulating signals, causing the cerebral cortex to be overexcited, which will invisibly cause players to feel fatigued.

What's more interesting is that the hotels that the Jazz arrange for the away team to stay are usually located in the outskirts of the city.Although the quality of the hotel is good, due to the distance limitation, this means that the visiting team players need to drag their tired bodies, get up early the next day, and take the bus to the energy solution center arena for physical recovery training and shooting training.This is the legendary "outside trick".

Compared with other arenas, Energy Solutions Center arena is very "steep", how to describe it?To be there, man, the arena looks like a deep well, it's chilling.Of course, the purpose of this design is not to "scare the children". Located in the arena at the bottom, this terrifying aura can, to a large extent, make the visiting team feel terrified and shuddering.

At the same time, as a Jazz fan, Jerry Sloan is a name that will never be erased in the history of this team.Although the old handsome looks elegant at first glance, he is adhering to iron and blood in his bones, and there is no sand in his eyes.In those seasons he coached, the Jazz were always labeled as the "iron team".Where is Iron Blood?This classic line from Sloan may solve the confusion in the most intuitive way.

"Why is your team so tough and tough?" a reporter asked at a news conference.

"The reason for this is simple. It is impossible for NBA referees to whistle every round. Even if some actions are indeed fouled, they will be overlooked by the referee. Especially in your own home court, you should make good use of this advantage. If the referee is serious , keep a close eye on every foul, then any game will stretch to 4-5 hours, any game will have a large number of players ejected, and the fans will not buy it anyway." Sloan With a slight smile, he explained without concealing it.

The truth sounds straightforward and simple, but it works.So on their own territory, the Jazz tend to behave more "unscrupulous".Although Jerry Sloan has not been the coach for many years, his philosophy has already penetrated into the bone marrow of this team.So no matter whether the Jazz is strong or weak, whether it is a contender for the championship or a contender for the lottery championship, the team's creed is only one --- and die.
