Chapter 215 It's Useless for Hayward to Play
"Nice, wonderful dunks, but this defense really shouldn't be, Favors defending Xia Tian? This speed is not at the same level at all, okay? In my opinion, if Millsap is put in the third position, maybe Even better." Su Qun shook his head and said.

"Hahaha, Xia, did you see that! Jefferson is really laughing me to death, he is standing still under the basket, do you think he has been dunked out of the psychological shadow?" Harden said during the defense process. Said with a high five in Xia Tian.

"Really? I just paid attention to dunking and didn't pay attention to him. No wonder he didn't come up to interfere when I dunked just now. Maybe he was really afraid." Xia Tian said with a smile.

"Of course, you haven't seen Jefferson's expression, hahaha." Harden grinned.

Xia Tian rolled his eyes straight, is it really that funny?

"Okay, okay, don't laugh, you're still playing." Xia Tian helplessly patted Harden on the shoulder, trying to get him to turn his attention back to the game.

Watson advanced with the ball, dribbled it to the front court and handed it to Bell on the side, and the whole person took Harden to the bottom.

Bell dribbled the ball, and Jefferson came to cover. With the help of the screen, Bell got Battier's defense and went inside, and then threw a shot before Yao Ming's supplementary defense came.

"Swish"

Feeling good, Bell hit a goal after the opening of the third quarter.

But just a two-pointer can't quench your thirst. Looking back, Harden and Yao Ming completed a sudden cooperation. Harden went inside and passed the ball to Yao Ming, who caught the ball and scored easily.

73:70
Jefferson quickly caught the basketball falling from the basket and then sent it to Watson. At this time, the Rockets had not fully returned to the defense. Slow down a little.

Dribble quickly, Bell and Favors also followed Watson to the frontcourt, 3 on 4!The Rockets haven't stabilized yet, so they can play a try. Seeing this, Watson rushed into the inside line.

Then he passed the ball to Favors, who cut in from the right, and Favors stopped after catching the ball, looked at Xia Tian and pushed him with his butt, then bent over and put the ball into the basket.

73:72
The point difference returned to one point again, Xia Tian looked at Hayward and then at Favors, why everyone started to push me with their butts!Big ass is amazing!
Enduring a mouthful of resentment, Xia Tian asked Harden for the ball to play singles. Facing Favors' defense, Xia Tian made a change of direction and rushed in. He didn't make any sense at all, and then adjusted with Jefferson's help defense. From the jumping position, a pull-up layup scored the ball.

75:72
The Jazz began to attack in position. Unfortunately, the Jazz played for 5 minutes under the impregnable rocket wall and couldn't find a chance. There was no way. Seeing the score getting bigger and bigger, Sloan finally sent Hayward again.

With 6 minutes left in the time, the Jazz had the ball. In the half quarter, the Rockets relied on the cooperation of the three of Xia Tian to pull the score to double digits. Now Hayward is like a patch. It will be the same, where the seams are broken.

Hayward dribbles fast break, double-digit gap, half a quarter, Hayward really has no time to waste, he actually knows very well in his heart that if the score is not caught within five points in the third quarter, then the fourth The festival may have to sit on the bench again.

Just like before, obviously Hayward can still play and doesn't need to rest for half a quarter at all, but Sloan is unwilling!Because as the head coach of the team, Sloan knows nothing more than the strength of the Jazz.

In Deron, after Kirilenko left, it was even worse. As for why he was still entangled with the Rockets for so long, it was not because of Hayward, so Sloan must protect Hayward.

It can be said that Hayward has surpassed the outcome of the game in Sloan's heart. Even if he is eliminated today, so what, they can start again next year when the team strengthens, but what if Hayward is injured?This is a consequence that people dare not think about, so Sloan has been letting Hayward rest and is unwilling to play him.

Even as Hayward thought, if the score difference at the end of the third quarter was more than five points, Sloan would not let Hayward play, because he did not want his lover to fight. The Jazz is not as rich as the Rockets. They can't afford it.

On the field, Hayward dribbles and breaks through, facing Xia Tian's stalking defense Hayward is very painful, even Hayward is more willing to face Battier's defense, because Xia Tian has too many small moves !

Battier is going to be much cleaner, with no defensive gimmicks that interfere with his shooting rhythm.

"Shit!" Hayward was once again disturbed by Xia Tian in the process of dribbling and lost his rhythm. After the basketball fell, it hit his foot directly, and was then taken away by Xia Tian.

Fast break, Xia Tian and Harden were almost side by side, and at this time, only Harden's matchup Miles returned to the basket in the Jazz's inside line. Looking at Xia Tian who was dribbling, Miles basically defended him without thinking. .

Hit the ball and pass it to Harden. Harden dribbled the ball and jumped up in one step, dunking with one hand to send the basketball into the basket.

86:74
The score was opened again, and the Jazz players couldn't help but sing coolness in their hearts. Even Hayward went up and let the Rockets score so easily. The Jazz are really desperate.

Not only the Jazz players, but even some Jazz fans who were watching the live broadcast began to feel cold, and some even turned off the TV directly. They really couldn't stand it anymore.

"It's okay, I can still play, give me the ball." Hayward returned to the backcourt and patted Myers on the shoulder, his confident and cold eyes made Myers' heart ignite.

Yes, we still have Hayward!We haven't lost yet!No matter how big the score is, Hayward will definitely be able to catch up!As a fan of Hayward, Miles couldn't help but think of it.

As for why Miles is called a fan of Hayward, does it need to be said?The 48-point triple-double in the playoffs is so popular!It is no exaggeration to say that now Salt Lake City is basically a fan of Hayward.

As for Deron, they have long forgotten them, and now Hayward is the real son of Salt Lake City.

Driving forward with the ball, Hayward came to the front and drew a screen for Xia Tian, ​​hoping to switch defenses to find shooting opportunities. Anyway, in Hayward's eyes, except for Xia Tian, ​​the rest of the players really have no defensive threats.

Miles came to cover, and Hayward used the screen to reach the three-point line, but Xia Tian naturally would not let Hayward go, and a defense around the back blocked Hayward's breakthrough route again.

Dribbling back, Hayward called Bell's screen again, this time Hayward did not break through the screen, and left the defensive position directly to find Battier. Seeing the scene in front of him, Xia Tian finally gave up.

Because Hayward has already formed a match with Battier, if Xia Tian goes up and forces it in at this time, then Bell will have a chance to open up. This kind of result is not what Xia Tian wants to see.

Breaking through with the dribble, he directly hit the penalty area against Shane Hayward, and then pulled back to make a fake shot. Although the action was real, Battier did not take off with his years of defensive experience. Both hands came to Hayward's body.

Seeing that it was impossible to shoot, Hayward had to pass the ball to Jefferson on the inside, and then a counter-run came to Jefferson's side. Jefferson quickly handed the ball to Hayward, and Hayward Ward caught the ball and then floated to the right for a shot.

"Swish"

86:76
Sure enough, it is impossible to defend Hayward without adding some small moves to him. As Pippen said when he taught him, your interference is basically useless against top pitchers. The only thing that can defend them is small moves, because of this On the one hand, it can disrupt his shooting rhythm. As a top shooter, the rhythm is very important.

Whether it is blindfolding or fouling, as long as he has the pre-rhythm of shooting, he is basically sure to score.
