Ji Guohuo’s elbow of Los Angeles has been seen by everyone. What does it mean to attack first and then suffer!

After Carlos Boozer left the court, Mir Sap, who replaced him on the court, was just a sophomore player. Although he played with the team to the Western Conference Finals last season, he still could not replace Boozer's role on the court. At least in terms of rebounding, the Jazz were at a disadvantage.

Ji Guochou grabbed two frontcourt rebounds in the next three minutes. Mill Sap's rebounds were not bad, but his height determined that once he met an inside lineman with a height and long arms like the twin brothers or Duncan and Garnett, he was destined to not get any benefits.

In the first quarter, 8 minutes and 20 seconds, with a score of 7:2, the Clippers' defensive strategy is to keep a close distance and break through. If the Jazz's sharpshooter Kyle Korver does not play, they only need to make appropriate defense against Deron Williams, and only need to make some meaning to other Jazz outside players. They don't need to use too much energy to defend, anyway, they can't make any shots.

At the beginning, Deron Williams missed a three-pointer, and Kirilenko also missed the shot from the 45-degree three-point line. The Jazz missed two consecutive three-pointers, and the Clippers immediately started with a 7:2 start.

Ji Guomomori made Boozer continue. He was very happy on the court for a while. This time, the attack was released with his brother's unball cover and made a three-pointer from the top of the arc to hit a three-pointer, helping the Clippers to score a 10:2 attack wave at the beginning, forcing Sloan to call a timeout.

Jazz fans have never stopped their booing since the game started, especially after Ji Guomeng's foul, they have been scolding since the beginning. But this cannot give their team the upper hand on the court.

Sloan has no way to solve the disadvantage of rebounding for the time being. The 10 points obtained by the Clippers after the opening were all the gains of the twin brothers. The two frontcourt rebounds that Ji Guoqiu grabbed were all converted into scoring.

Carlos Boozer returned to the court from the locker room at this time. It seemed that he had slowed down from the elbow of Los Angeles, which made coach Sloan feel relieved. Boozer's height is enough, plus his strength. They can't guarantee the frontcourt rebounds, but at least the backcourt rebounds should be saved.

"We played well at the beginning, but don't be careless. Boozer is an All-Star player. You can't beat him by fox by just a little trick. Let me show you your true skills later." Old Dunleavy actually used a provocation to Ji Guoqie. In fact, he did this to do it. Ji Guomi was already holding his strength to compete with this guy.

The game started again, and the Clippers defended and was against Ji Guomo. Carlos Boozer.

Both Jazz's inside players are not fast. Boozer and Oku are actually at a disadvantage when dealing with the two inside players with extraordinary mobility in the Clippers. If the two brothers use the pick-and-roll down to attack the Jazz's basket like they do against the Spurs, Sloan actually has no good way, and can only rely on tough defensive actions to intimidate the opponent's breakthrough.

But now it's the offensive end, and the Jazz first needs to attack. Boozer is in the low position and is ready to fight with his own strength.

The twins' position today is different from when they were against the Spurs. The two of them are guarding the left and right waist positions together today. This is a double-circling front defense. The two of them don't compete with Boozer at the low post. As long as Boozer is not allowed to catch the basketball in the inside, what can he do if he is strong? Can he still dismantle the basketball stand with bare hands?

There is a loophole in this kind of defense, that is, the Turkish striker Oku is exposed on the outside. This guy is a rare three-point center, and he can pull it out and shoot from the outside.

The Clippers' arrangement was to let James Posey and Artest help them to help defend Oku outside the three-point line. As long as the Jazz passes the basketball to the outside, the Clippers' forward players use their steps to repair the defense. In this way, the Clippers' outer line is equivalent to two defenses and three defenses. As long as the Jazz passes the basketball to the outside, the Clippers will definitely leak a person, and this person is either Ronnie, Brewer or Kirirenko. The Clippers have no choice but to do this. Fortunately, one of these two people will not shoot three-pointers, and the other three-pointer will cheat. Because of this, old Dunleavy dares to use this targeted defensive tactic.

Among Jazz players, if Boozer's threat at low posts is compared to two Jazz players who are not good at shooting three-pointers on the outside, Dunleavy still thinks it is worth it. If the two people who leaked feel very good today, they still have plan B.

The Clippers' double-turn front tactics, relying on the twins' movement speed inside, were swinging their long arms, even an excellent point guard like Deron Williams could not pass the basketball accurately to the inside, and the chances of forced passes were too high.

Sloan shouted off the court: "Breakthrough, break in and pass the ball!"

Deron Williams knows what it means. As long as he can break through to the penalty area, the twin brothers will definitely come to defend him, and the route of passing the ball will appear.

Old Dunleavy smiled and thought to himself: "Since we dare to use this trick, we naturally considered this cracking method."

The Clippers did have a way to deal with the Jazz's breakthrough. James Percy quickly retracted to the inside. In fact, he was standing very well inside and could retreat to the penalty area to defend in just one step. In addition, Billups and Deron Williams, who were not completely thrown away, suddenly went into the penalty area to face the Clippers' double defense.

The twins did not return to the basket to help defend Deron Williams. It was enough to have Billups and Percy there. They just retreated to the waist position to prevent Deron Williams from passing the ball outside in the penalty area. To put it bluntly, they closed the ball from inside to outside, and the whole team blocked the fat man in the penalty area.

Moreover, the two of them stood in this position to prevent Deron Williams from passing the basketball outside in the inside. Most of the Clippers' team now retreated to the penalty area, and there was no one defending the outside. As long as the fat guy passed the basketball to the outside, the Jazz players could easily get an open three-pointer opportunity. At this time, the Clippers had to rely on the twins to pounce on the outside to interfere. Only when they stood in the waist position could they have time to save and return to the basket to protect the blue version of the backcourt.

The Clippers' defense is a complex rotation tactic, specially designed for the Jazz and extremely targeted.

Delon Williams has no room for attack after dribbling into the penalty area. Forced shots are easily blocked by Posey, who assists in defense. Even if they are not blocked, his shooting percentage will definitely be greatly affected. He does not have the strong ability to stagnate the air as strong as Kobe.

The Clippers prevent Deron Williams from passing the ball to the outside, but they were still found a gap by the fat guy with outstanding passing ability. Kirirenko received the pass from outside the three-point line. Ji Guocho immediately rotated and rushed outside in one step. However, it was too late to block it, so he could only interfere with Kirirenko's shot to a certain extent.

"Swish!"

Kirilianko made a three-pointer this time. Old Dunleavy was expressionless under the court. The Clippers' defense will not change because of this. No matter how good the defense is, it will not make the opponent unable to make a single shot. Unless the Jazz makes an attacking wave, the Clippers will not give up the customized defensive strategy before the game. Let's see how many three-pointers the Jazz can make?

The Utah Jazz's offense is probably the worst among the four teams in the second round of the Western Conference. Their shooting range is not far enough, and the muscles of the body are difficult to cause fatal damage to the enemy once they are touched by the opponent in the playoffs; they are proud of pick-and-roll cooperation. If they encounter teams that are good at defending pick-and-roll, such as the Clippers, they will also be restricted.

Without Yao Ming, the Rockets can still play six games with the Jazz while the wounded are full of camp, relying on the Houstonians' equally excellent defense.

This means that when the Jazz meets a team with excellent defense, they can ensure that they are not penetrated by the opponent, but they cannot beat the opponent. In the end, both sides defend and defend. The Jazz finally relied on their despicable lethal tactics and the stars' performance at critical moments to defeat the opponent.

In the second round, when the Jazz met the Clippers, they still couldn't beat the opponent, but the Clippers might not be able to beat the Jazz.

Boozer has been very sluggish since the playoffs. In the first round, even a rookie like Landry struggled to pack up. Today, when he met this red Fox jumping up and down, Boozer didn't have many ways to defend, and it was difficult for him to keep up with Ji Guomo. If the Clippers gave the Fox brother a few unball covers, the latter would easily be able to get a shot.

The Clippers have ten seconds left in this attack. Ji Guoqiu provided no-ball cover in the ox horn position to help his brother block Boozer who was following the defense.

Ji Guomo directly fell outside the three-point line, received a pass from Billups, and hit a 3-pointer from the wing on the head of Kirirenko who was resting defense.

Coach Sloan said that he still has no choice but to do with Ji Guohumili. The Jazz only have three inside players this season. If Boozer can't defend, then Oku will definitely not be able to defend, not to mention Mir Sap, who is substitute. The movement steps of these three guys are not much different, just like gtx960 and gtx760, it's just that tmd has changed into a vest.

At the end of the first quarter, the score was 26:22. The Jazz's outside players felt good in the first quarter. Compared to their last round of series, today's shooting was already very accurate.

In the last round of the series against the Rockets, the Jazz's most accurate Korver made less than 35% of their three-point shooting percentage, and the Russian Kirilenko made only 20% of his scam three-pointers. Ronnie Brewer simply never made a three-pointer. The only accurate one was Deron Williams. This guy's three-point shooting reached an astonishing 48% in the first round of the series. The Jazz's ability to advance was all about the performance of the fat superstar.

Ji Guoqiu scored 6 points, 5 rebounds, 2 assists and 1 block in the first quarter, Ji Guomiang scored 10 points and 3 rebounds, Billups scored 3 points and 3 assists, James Percy scored 4 points, and Mobri scored 3 points.

Deron Williams scored 5 points and 3 assists, Oku scored 6 points, Boozer scored 2 points, Kirilenko scored 6 points, and Kyle Korver scored 3 points.
