NBA: I Really Have No Talent

On the evening of February 23rd, in the Energy Solutions Arena, the fourth and final regular season match between the Jazz and the Sonics was going on in full swing, and the atmosphere was extremely warm.

During this period of continuous home games, facing a bunch of weak teams, finally met an opponent that can play, the fans are looking forward to the team's performance. As the capital of Utah, the population of the Salt Lake City area is actually not much, only over 200,000, but the population of the entire city is more than one million. A city that is not comparable to Daqiu City, but the population size is actually quite large in the United States.

Last season, the Jazz successfully won the championship, and they are also home to four All-Star players. Among them, the popularity of Wang Pan has reached the league's first-class level. In addition, the team's performance this season is still very good.

So as long as the Jazz play at home, the attendance in the arena is very good, almost all of them are above 80%.

In the current NBA league, this attendance is definitely in the first tier, not worse than the Lakers and Knicks. It can be said to have created a miracle in the small ball market~!

In every home game, the fans will help the team in their own way, interfere with the visiting team in various ways as much as possible, and increase the probability of winning for the Jazz. This game is the same.

Although the current record of the Sonics is only 37 wins and 15 losses, they are ranked third in the Western Conference. They are as many as ten wins away from the Jazz. Almost? Impossible to catch up. But the Jazz fans in the arena booed them as always.

Whenever a Sonics player gets a ball on the court, he immediately receives a deafening "special attention."

Playing in such a harsh environment is not only testing the players' skills, but also testing the players' willpower and courage.

For the Sonics players, it is definitely stressful, with half the effort!

The status and performance will definitely be affected.

Even if you can maintain a peaceful state of mind at the beginning, over time, state fluctuations will definitely be inevitable.

It's like this round...

DUANG!

The basketball hits the hoop and bounces high, Jose? Hawkins failed to make a three-pointer this time, and his face was full of chagrin. The bottom line just came to my mind. In the auditorium, the various grimaces and weird gestures made by the Jazz fans made a long sigh in my heart: "There is no bottom line, it's just a regular season. Do you want to achieve this level? H fans: It's useful.

Of course, everyone can't control Hawkins' thoughts at this time.

At this moment in the basket...

A figure in the Jazz No. 10 jersey seemed to have known where the basketball would go. He jumped high and took the backboard into his hands.

No Who else can Wang Pan be?

The moment he landed, Wang Pan didn't need to observe the conditions on the court, and without hesitation he threw the basketball to the front court. Stockton and Hornacek had already started early.

The two pass the ball tacitly and cooperate with each other without giving Gary? Payton steals the opportunity, and finally Hornacek layup to complete the scoring. The score was rewritten to 86:78. With the last six minutes and one second left in the game, the Jazz led the Sonics by 8 points.

Wang Pan's support organization this time is really great!

Decisively outrageous!

The effect is naturally very outstanding!

The ball is converted, the Sonics have the ball...

Outside the Jazz three-point line, Gary? Payton relied on the pick and roll to forcibly get rid of Wang Pan's entanglement.

Jeff? Hornacek immediately made up the defense. Payton was about to pass the ball to Schramf, only to find that Wang Pan, who had just been rid of him, appeared beside the pass line so desperately. Helpless is to give up the idea of ​​passing the ball.

Against Hornacek's defense, he went straight to the basket, slammed on the floor and jumped up, changing the shot into a pass in the air, sending the basketball to the unmarked side of Jim under the basket. But by Carl? Malone reacted quickly and raised his big fan-like palm, directly destroying the pass.

"Suitable I?

y ~~ I — I 1 ran a few steps quickly, Wang Pan flew over and grabbed the basketball in his hand. Before his opponent came up for a fight, he threw the ball to the front court.

Stockton, who started early, caught the ball from the center line and rushed to the rim of the Sonics, and scored two points with an easy layup.

The score came to 88:78, and the score difference reached 10 points.

This makes the faces of the Sonics players very ugly. In away games, the opponents are strong and the top control ability of the Jazz team. He actually fell behind by double digits. This game is difficult to play. .

But they have no plan to give up, cheer up and organize an offense.

A crucial attack!

Taking a bad look at the situation on the court, Gary? Payton's heart sinks involuntarily. The two teams know each other very well because of a lot of fights. When defensive, they are more one-on-one markings. On their own side, Wang Pan, to be honest, There is not much advantage.

This little metamorphosis/state speed force response technology is not a hindrance and difficult to deal with.

Needless to say the inside line, don't look at Sean? Camp was so strong when he played other teams' inside lanes. He made a mess from the sky. He was called a rim killer, but he faced Karl every time. Ma Long, the big muscle tyrant, Yuren's performance is actually relatively average, but he can't do it in strength. In terms of footwork, Lao Ma is not at all disadvantaged, and his height is only two centimeters, and he is not very dominant in all aspects.

This game is the same, facing the very strong Carl? Malone, Sean? Camp is obviously restricted.

Needless to say, Jim, who is completely incapable of autonomous offense, can still bully opponents by relying on his impressive height of two meters and sixteen. This time he encountered Ostella, who was two centimeters taller than him. Grid, obviously there is nothing wrong with it. ? ? 0 Seeking flowers...

As for Jose? On Hawkins's side, Stockton followed very closely, and all kinds of small gestures greeted him one after another, without giving him much room for action.

Observing so far, Gary? Payton found that he had no other choice at the moment. It is the most reasonable way to let Schramf, who is 2.6 meters tall, beat the small and bully Hornacek, who is 1.91 meters tall.

However, not waiting for Gary? Payton passed the ball out, and Wang Pan rushed forward, suddenly exerting violent physical confrontation, and almost all of him stuck to the glove.

"Did you just want to pass the ball?" Wang Pan whispered.

On the defensive end, he consciously controlled his position and direction, faintly getting stuck on the route of passing the ball to Schramf. "This kid's defense is getting sharper and sharper!" Feeling the huge defensive pressure/pressure from Wang Pan, Gary? Payton gritted his teeth and chose to force a breakthrough on his own.

Skilled in handling the ball, with a very low focus. After changing directions, he broke into the three-point line and played fiercely, but he couldn't get rid of Wang Pan's defense.

"It's really difficult!" Glove thought.

Yu Guang saw Schramf stepping forward to prepare for a pick-and-roll for himself, and he couldn't help but feel relieved.

"It's now!" The dynamic vision has always been locked in Gary? The Wang Pan on Payton immediately noticed the opponent's distraction at the moment, his right hand protruded like lightning, and his left hand moved quickly from the opponent's blind spot.

The reaction was extremely fast, and he escaped dangerously and dangerously Wang Pan's right-hand steal, without waiting for Gary? Payton breathed a sigh of relief, only feeling that his left hand holding the ball was empty, and the basketball was shot directly into the air.

"It's over!" A strong sense of loss haunted Gary? Payton's heart.

I was one-on-one steals. I shouldn't, really shouldn't!

Annoyance is useless, the reality cannot be changed!

At this moment, the stadium has been paying attention to the situation of Wang Pan, Karl? Malone touched/touched the basketball first, staggered, and threw the ball to Stockton before falling to the ground.

The Jazz defensively counterattacked and launched a fast break...

Wang Pan immediately rushed to the frontcourt like a bolt of lightning. Stockton passed the ball without any hesitation.

After catching the ball and rushing into the free-throw line, the rock generation stepped on the floor and jumped high. Wang Pan grabbed the ball with one hand, from top to bottom, following the huge forward momentum, and vigorously hit the basketball. Smashed into the basket.

"Boom~!" Vigorously cut the score.

After the substitutions were completed in the second half of the final quarter, the Jazz made a wave of 6-0 offensive climaxes/trends, expanding the point difference to 12 points, and initially established the victory...
