Chapter 141: Energy Conservation
That's right, this is the tactic the Utah Jazz's head coach arranged for them!!
In the first quarter, try to deplete the opposing team's physical strength as much as possible.
In plateau environment.
The body will then lack oxygen supply.
However, this situation can be gradually adapted to, and if the situation is not serious, it will get better after a while.
So they have natural advantages and they must use them to the maximum!
In the first quarter of the game, we need to make them consume as much energy as possible.
Then, after this point, drag them to the limit of their physical strength as much as possible.
In this way, the Jazz can easily win the game.
So at the beginning, they launched a fierce attack!
After Mitchell got the ball, he accelerated and broke through.
He got rid of the defender a little bit in disguise, and then went straight to the inside for a layup!
The Lakers' defensive players naturally would not watch them go for the layup, but would go straight to the inside to chase and block them.
However.
Just as they were about to catch up on defense, Mitchell passed the ball directly in the air!
Bang!!
The ball was passed with great force.
It went straight through the Lakers' defense and into Rubio's hands.
Rubio easily scored a layup under the basket.
2:0!
The Utah Jazz took the lead with two points.
This also aroused the enthusiasm of other players on the Lakers.
Damn?
The coach just told us to defend tightly, and you came up with a fast break.
OK!
With this goal, I must let you know how powerful we are!!
"Wow! Looks like the Lakers are planning to fight back!!"
Here, the commentator on the field began to explain very professionally:
"Yes, it does look like that!"
"The Lakers are indeed quite strong, but the Jazz are also a very strong team this year!"
"Oh! Is Nick Young holding the ball now? Why don't they pass it to Sashiro?"
"Don't you see, Sashiro hasn't caught up with his teammates yet..."
"Haha... So that's how it is. However, I'm sure Nick Young is also confident that he can score this goal!"
"Nick Young is going to play one-on-one!"
"He was looking for shooting opportunities, but the Jazz's defense was also very tight."
"Nick Young found an opportunity to break through!! He got to the basket and the defender came up to defend!! Layup!"
"The ball goes in!!"
"nice shot!!"
The narrator said excitedly.
This goal was indeed wonderful.
Because after Nick Young passed the opponent's first defense, he went straight to the basket and pulled up.
Very handsome!
Very handsome indeed!
The sharp and graceful breakthrough also won cheers from the audience.
However...
At this time, the head coach of the Jazz, who was watching the game on the sidelines, revealed a barely perceptible smile.
"Haha...just fight like this and see how long you can last."
Here, Sashiro ran a few steps and then started running back.
At this moment...if you don't know, you would think he was jogging to warm up.
Even slower than warming up...
Everyone was stunned.
"What is this? Isn't this part of health preservation?"
"Sashiro, what's going on today?"
"I don't understand. I don't understand either."
"It seems that Sashiro has regained the feeling of the past..."
"Hahahaha, I'm dying of laughter!"
"Sashiro and Wiggins are the two guardians of the health industry!!"
"Nonsense! Our Brother Bai is definitely more outrageous!"
...
Here, Rubio assisted his teammates, and Ingles rushed forward to prepare for a layup.
Then at this time, Brook Lopez rushed up and blocked him!
Peng!
Just when the Lakers teammates were outraged, Donovan Mitchell picked up the rebound.
Once again, he shot the ball off the backboard in the corner and sent the ball steadily into the basket.
4:2!!
This shot was not easy to play.
However, the Utah Jazz managed to score the goal without any danger.
Seeing the other party working so hard, Mitchell felt a little worried.
"Aren't they tired?"
But then I remembered what my coach told me before the game.
If the Lakers play aggressively early on, don't worry.
Let them fight as hard as possible!
In this way, our advantages will be greater in the later stages!
So when he thought of this, he felt relieved.
Keep fighting like this!
Next, the two sides continued to exchange attacks in this way.
The Lakers had just scored a goal when the Jazz launched a counterattack through Mitchell.
The score between the two sides was deadlocked for a while!
Halfway through the first quarter, the Jazz led by two points.
Seeing this, all the audience discovered it.
Sashiro seems to be out of shape today?
Working but not putting in effort?
What happened? Was I infected by Wiggins?
And obviously Mitchell also discovered this today.
Sashiro seems... not as good as before!
There's some food!!
How come he didn't contribute much on the field... Could it be...
Is it because he is in a particularly bad condition today! ?
Although, everyone on the field is pursuing higher, faster and stronger.
But...
Who doesn't like to take advantage of the situation?
"Pinch him!!"
I am not bullying the weak and afraid of the strong, I am just saying that it is better to have a weak persimmon to squeeze!!
So Mitchell said confidently:
"Come and give me the ball, I'm going to single out Sashiro!!"
Everyone was slightly stunned.
Oh shit.
You are so brave!
Single Sashiro?
Can.
Very dreamy!!
So they passed the ball to Mitchell, even though Mitchell knew Sashiro's performance in the NCAA.
But today, it looked like Sashiro was clearly not in shape.
Not afraid at all!
So Mitchell, with the ball, went straight to Sashiro who was still jogging to warm up.
Sashiro was slightly stunned.
???
"What do you want from me?"
Mitchell said:
"I came to you just to beat you up!"
"Hit me? There are so many people here, why did you choose me..."
Mitchell wondered, is this even a question?
That means, take advantage of your illness to kill you.
Kick the cripple's good leg hard! !
But he didn't know...Sashiro, that was just pretending to be lame!
Although Sashiro didn't move much, at the moment when Mitchell changed his form.
Sashiro still responded.
Swish!
Just a moment.
Bang!
Cut the ball directly! !
Mitchell was stunned.
Sashiro seemed to move, but also seemed not to move...
But somehow, the ball was gone.
And the next second.
Just when everyone thought Sashiro had the ball and was about to start a fast break, Sashiro simply took the ball in his hands and stopped where he was.
...
??
What's going on?
How come it stopped?
Seeing that Sashiro did not go for a fast break, Mitchell, who was about to return to defense, almost knocked him down again.
Sashiro now almost completely believed the contents of that private message.
No matter where the information comes from.
But it's always right.
so.
Now Sashiro is committed to energy saving to the end! !
"Slow attack!!"
