NBA: This flower path is a bit strong

The second quarter began.

As expected, the Hawks made adjustments and let Christian Laettner go deeper inside to defend Ben Wallace who came off the bench.

And [African Mountain] Mutombo came to the waist position to defend Hanamichi closely.

Uncle Mu at this time was an inside player who played more than 40 minutes per game, so he did not rest at the beginning of the second quarter.

Not only him, but also Mookie Blaylock did not rest.

This season, Mookie Blaylock just won the honor of the league's steals king with an average of 2.7 steals per game and a total of 212 steals.

Whether in average steals per game or total steals, he is higher than the second place on the steals list~Hanachi's teammate~Doug Christie.

And now, the most obvious change of the Hawks is to strengthen the inside defense against Hanamichi and strengthen the output firepower of the outside line!

This quarter is Mookie Blaylock's performance time.

After a mediocre overall performance in the first round of the playoffs, he suddenly transformed into the limited edition 183 version of Mookie Blaylock in the first game of the second round, leading the team to a 5:1 and 7:0 shock wave in the second quarter.

He efficiently scored 15 points, 4 assists and 3 rebounds, narrowing the score gap between the two teams to 3 points.

It is this kind of performance that deserves the title of the "Double Mu" combination!

The key is the third quarter:

When the "Double Mu" combination was resting, Hanamichi continued to play and blew up the Hawks' substitute inside line with Big Ben.

At the same time, Das did not leave the court and continued to play on the outside!

Without the restraint of [Steal King] Mookie Blaylock, Das seemed more flexible and free!

In the first half of the third quarter, he sent out 7 assists. You should know that Das only sent out 5 assists before that!

"A bunch of young people, no ethics!"

"Bullying a bunch of 30-year-old comrades like us, is this okay?"

"This is not good!"

The helpless "Double Mu" combination once again stepped forward with the hope of the whole village!

The Hawks are like sticky candy, always able to use strong defense to break the Raptors' idea of ​​widening the score gap.

Mutombo waved his ruthless big hands on the defensive end, and the Raptors' scalps were numb with his blocks.

Especially Walter Williams and Ben Wallace.

At this moment, what Huadao was worried about still happened!

The large gap in height and arm span makes it easy for his teammates to be disturbed by Uncle Mu when they are shooting from close range or hitting the basket.

Even worse, they will offer a big block!

This is very morale-destroying.

Look at Ben, who performed well in the last round against the Magic. In today's game, he was blocked 3 times by Mutombo. He was almost exhausted!

So Hanamichi looked at Ben's afro and silently said sorry!

Then he took the opportunity to serve and touched Ben's fluffy afro and said:

"Forget the ball that was blocked just now!"

"Remember, you are the defensive core of our Raptors, the championship team!"

"So what if it was blocked?"

"My [Iron Blood Jump Shot] was blocked once!"

"What you have to do is to get it back!"

"If you don't fight back after being hit, are you still a man?"

"From now on, there are about 15 minutes left before the end of the game."

"In these 15 minutes, I will suggest that Coach Deng should not replace you!"

"No one will help you, all you have to do is to return one or more blocks to your opponent!"

At this point, Hanamichi said meaningfully:

"Ben, your talent is not only defense!"

…………

Finally, Hanamichi used the ultimate skill inherited from Duncan [Head Touch Kill] on one of his own players!

[Head Pat Kill] (Gold): The player who is touched on the head will have 10% more physical strength and 10% more concentration, once per game!

After drinking the chicken soup from Hanamichi, Ben feels that even the old ladies are not convinced, but Hanamichi!

After all, Ben himself did feel a little tired in this game. To deal with an opponent who is nearly 20cm taller than him, he must have consumed extra physical strength.

In addition, the opponent is not an ordinary person, so Ben is under more pressure!

But from the end of the third quarter to the beginning of the fourth quarter, Ben became more active!

Not only did he run actively on the court on the defensive end, he even blocked Christian Laettner through assist defense.

At the same time, Ben also ate cakes more smoothly.

If Ben's stiff cake-eating performance after surgery in the future is rated 1 point, his current cake-eating performance is 6 points, at least passing the passing line.

The Hawks quickly narrowed the gap to 4 points in the third quarter.

In the fourth quarter, once againPulled away.

In addition to Ben’s strength, the main reason was that Hanamichi stood up and took over the game again!

He played 48 minutes, scored 38 points, 15 rebounds, 3 assists, 3 blocks and 1 steal, overpowering the 183cm point guard Mookie Blaylock of the Hawks who played 46 minutes, and won the best player of the game!

Although the latter scored 31 points, 12 rebounds and 5 assists as a point guard!

(A 183cm point guard grabbed 12 rebounds, which is really weird!)

But he still failed to lead the Hawks to victory.

In the end, the home fans of the Toronto Raptors once again sent off their cousins ​​from Atlanta with enthusiastic cheers, and congratulated them on their victory!

And the Hawks’ center Mutombo performed well with 12 points, 10 rebounds, 2 assists and 6 blocks!

That’s right, for Mutombo this season, averaging a double-double + 6 blocks is indeed a good result!

After all, in the original history, his average number of blocks per game in this playoffs should be 6.3!

Anyway, the Raptors won their first home game.

But in this game, Mookie Blaylock's outburst caught the attention of another Raptors player!

This led to the tragedy in G2 of the second round of the playoffs!

In another division, the Utah Jazz, the runner-up in the Western Conference last season and the top team in the Western Conference this season, played against the Purple and Gold Lakers, which has the league giant ~ the Big Sewer Shark joining this season.

Black and White Double Evil VS OK combination?

Of course it's impossible!

At this time, the cauliflower snake is still playing as a substitute! (*^_^*)

Of course, Lao Ke still played in the first series against the Jazz.

This future [Blacksmith] did not disappoint the Yanzu at all. He played for 14 minutes and scored 2 rebounds, 3 points and 3 assists with 233 data.

1-for-7, 1-for-5 three-pointers, with the lowest efficiency value of -13, the lowest field goal percentage of 14.3%, and the lowest true shooting percentage of 20.2% in the game, ranking last!

So in the end, Lao Ke can grow into a superstar who surpasses Allen Iverson. It's really... one word... bad!

But bad in the future, but the current Lakers are obviously not the opponent of the Jazz.

The biggest reason for losing to the Jazz by 15 points in the first game is certainly not the substitute player Lao Ke!

It's O'Neal who just arrived at the Los Angeles Lakers!

O'Neal was elbowed by Karl Malone's big elbow in the confrontation with the Jazz!

Facts have proved that if you want to dominate the West in the last decade of the 20th century, you can't do it without a pair of [iron elbows].

(Weiping Bryant: If you don't have an [iron elbow], you can get a [blacksmith]!)

O'Neal made 6 of 16 shots and scored 17 points, 12 rebounds and 3 assists, which is a "not suitable for the local climate" data!

On the one hand, it is indeed because of Karl Malone and the Jazz's iron-blooded defense that O'Neal "only" played for 35 minutes.

But on the other hand, it is also because O'Neal's teammates, Nick Van Exel and Eddie Jones, took too many shots.

And the lower half of the Western Conference, the Western Conference champions last season, this time were hung up and hammered by the Mosaic Big Three!

[Glider] Clyde Drexler 22 points, 9 rebounds and 5 assists;

[Flying Pig in the Sky] Charles Barkley 19 points, 9 rebounds and 3 assists;

[Big Dream] Hakeem Olajuwon 15 points, 11 rebounds, 2 assists and 3 blocks.

In addition, the starting players of both teams scored in double digits, and the substitutes did not score in double digits.

But the Mosaic Big Three made it clear to last season's Western Conference champion Supersonics through this game.

That is: the old Big Three are still the Big Three!

A team with [Crooked Mouth God of War] Payton + [Rain Man] Kemp always has one more core!

The Supersonics wanted to eat the old people's seats, but they didn't expect to eat their own seats!
