Chapter 146 Hit Paul while eating and sleeping?
Time came to the beginning of January in a blink of an eye. During this period, the record of the Hornets dropped from sixth in the West to ninth in the West.
After losing the Celtics, the Hornets lost consecutively to the Indiana Pacers, San Antonio Spurs, Portland Trail Blazers and Dallas Mavericks!There was a 5-game losing streak. Fortunately, after the 5-game losing streak, I met the Raptors and Timberwolves, which made the record not drop so badly!
During the losing streak, Jeremy Lin's performance was very poor. When the Pacers and Spurs played against each other, the opponents made good use of Jeremy Lin's inability to break through from the left, forcing him to attack from the left, and Jeremy Lin was forced into a desperate situation. The two games combined made 37 of 7 shots.
When facing the Trail Blazers and Dallas Mavericks, in order to better limit Jeremy Lin, the opponent adopted a two-person attack in the high position. This strategy made Jeremy Lin's mistakes rise in a straight line, adding up to 14 mistakes in the two games!
Although he won against the Raptors and Timberwolves, Jeremy Lin's performance can only be regarded as average, far worse than his performance during the winning streak.
In the Oklahoma training hall, Jeremy Lin looked at Presti with shame on his face and said, "Coach, I'm sorry, I let you down."
"It's okay." Presti smiled and patted Jeremy Lin's shoulder, and continued: "The teams in the league already know how to defend you. What you have to do now is to train hard and correct these shortcomings. Then you will go further!"
"En." Jeremy Lin nodded heavily, thinking that he would never let the coach down.
Although Presti said so, he knew that it was basically impossible for Jeremy Lin to completely correct these shortcomings. Otherwise, he would not have transferred so many times in his previous life. In fact, Jeremy Lin is also not in Presti's future plan. He plans to exchange Jeremy Lin for potions at the last time, play "Linsanity" again, and then trade out!
In the evening, the Hornets played against the Utah Jazz at home, and the New Orleans arena was already packed with crowds.
The Jazz are currently ranked 11th in the Western Conference and can be said to be a lottery team. The main reason why this game attracted a large number of fans to watch is because Chris Paul is back today!
Not only the Hornets fans are looking forward to the performance of the Hornets, but also want to know how the Hornets with Paul will perform. It is the media and other competing teams!
In fact, there is a bigger point of view is that Paul played against Deron Williams.
In the previous life, there was such a sentence to describe Delong: beat Paul while eating and sleeping, no matter how bad Delong's condition is, he will always explode when he meets Paul! , Deron and Paul played a total of 25 times, of which Deron's team won 17 of them!
And this world has played against each other 14 times, but Deron won 12 times!So that the current statement has become: Paul ruled other point guards, and Deron ruled Paul!
Today's commentary is still Barkley and David Wesley!
Before the game started, Barkley laughed loudly and said, "When did you say that Paul didn't pay well, and he chose to play against the Jazz? Has he forgotten the fear of being ruled by Deron Williams?"
David Wesley frowned and said: "I think Presti should allow it. Maybe Presti has a way to make Paul less embarrassed when facing Deron."
"Haha, stop talking about Presti, you forgot about the 5-game losing streak a few days ago?" Barkley mocked.
"How about a bet?" David Wesley looked straight at Barkley.
"Just hit..." Barkley just said, and immediately shut up, because he remembered: donkey's butt, remembered the shoes, anyway, he understood clearly, as long as he bet, he must lose, it's too evil.
Although he was discouraged, he could not be weak in language, so he straightened up, raised his head and said, "Don't participate in gambling, anyway, I say that the Hornets have to lose tonight."
"Haha" David Wesley couldn't help laughing seeing Buckley like this.
Presti attaches great importance to the next game!When the team doctor told Presti yesterday that Paul could play, he made a plan for the next development of the team and the schedule!
After Paul just came back, he guaranteed at least 10 consecutive victories in the game, and then he suddenly rested Paul.
He believes that by then, Paul's transaction value will double again!
Therefore, in this game, not only the Hornets won, but more importantly, Paul also performed very well when facing Deron!
Presti's starting lineup is Chris Paul, Marcus Banks, Paul George, Okafor, Whiteside!
Barkley said with a smile: "Presti actually let Banks and Okafor start today. Bradley and David West are obviously more suitable for Paul. Banks plays with the ball, and David West and Paul's pick-and-roll, I think the Jazz are very difficult to parry."
David Wesley said: "I think Presti may want to have an absolute advantage on the bench, and use the rotation to widen the point difference."
Jazz starters: Deron Williams, Lagabel, Hayward, Millsap, Al Jefferson
Whiteside won the jump ball and the game started. George caught the ball and passed it to Paul.
Paul dribbled the ball on the right side, saw Whiteside coming up, turned around deftly to the middle, and completely got rid of the defense. Before Jefferson lowered his center of gravity, he saw the opponent quickly slap the ball and rushed past him.
Millsap didn't have time to make up the defense, and Paul scored a layup. 2 to 0.
The Jazz attacked, Banks defended Lagabel on the bottom line on the right, Okafor stuck to Millsap, Paul George defended Hayward, and Jefferson was blocked by Whiteside, and Whiteside had the advantage in the round! .
Deron held the ball in the middle and played a pick-and-roll with Jefferson. Whiteside switched defenses in time to block the breakthrough route. The ball was given to Jefferson.
However, Banks quickly switched over!
dislocation!
Hayward wants to use his body to force Banks!
After the confrontation!Staggered a bit, passed by, but the speed was reduced!
With this little delay, Okafor quickly made up the defense!
Hayward, take a shot against Okafor!
The shot goes wide!
Okafor interfered successfully!
Presti smiled. This is why he let Banks start. Banks' defense is very good, especially single defense. Although he is only 1 meters tall, he weighs 88 pounds and is very strong!
The Hornets battled, Banks and Jumaine pulled apart on the right.
After passing the ball to George after Paul dribbled halfway, he ran to the left corner. George lowered his center of gravity facing Hayward in the middle, and continued to make quick moves. Paul ran back on the left, relying on Whiteside's cover Deron! , catching the ball at 45 degrees on the left and making a three-pointer.
Jefferson's switching speed was too slow, Paul almost shot open,
hit!
