Soul of the Golden State

Chapter 504 What a bargain
To be honest, the referee's penalty has the obvious color of the home whistle, and the penalty is also a bit reluctant. After all, from the beginning to the end, Rodman took the initiative to interfere with Malone with small actions. Although Malone was not clean and counterattacked, it was all It was just a countermeasure taken in response to Rodman.

But the referee doesn't care about this. In the eyes of the referee, neither of these two is a good person, so who is not blowing?

What's more, in the final action, Rodman did stand on his feet, and Malone hit him, so it is reasonable to call an offensive foul.

Therefore, the original fast break of the Jazz had a very good chance of scoring, but because of Malone's offensive foul, they finally handed over the ball obediently.

When it was the Warriors' turn to attack, Li Weisi faced Stockton's defense.

To be honest, as Li Weisi has been in the league longer and longer, both strength and experience are increasing year by year, which has caused Stockton's defense to be less and less effective for Li Weisi.

In terms of defensive skills, Stockton did not know as much as Li Weisi. In terms of physical fitness, the two were evenly matched, and Li Weisi still had the upper hand.

Don't look at Stockton's average assists per game to the point where it is shocking, but it is just a lot of assists. In terms of driving the team through assists and tearing the opponent's defense, Stockton is not as good as Li Weisi , Magician, a historical passing master, and even Thomas.

It can be said that Stockton is an elite player, but he has never been a superstar, not the kind of star who can change the trend of the game by himself.

So, sometimes, the data can really lie.

At this time, Li Weisi is a very good example for Stockton. He is the kind of player that Stockton can only hope for. hands to achieve their goals.

It is precisely because of this belief that Li Weisi chose himself for this attack. Rodman has already boosted the morale of the entire team through his wonderful performance, so this goal must be scored to let the team cheer , crushing the enemy's confidence.

Li Weisi easily broke through Stockton's defense. As for the posture, it doesn't matter. After all, in Stockton today, Li Weisi uses whatever posture he uses. It can be said that just breaking through Stockton There is no way to bring any pleasure to Li Weisi.

Since the Jazz lowered the height of the lineup, the Jazz's defensive shrinkage was much better than the previous lineup. Therefore, after Li Weisi broke through Stockton, Malone quickly made up the defense to prevent Li Weisi from mid-range jumpers or drop shots.

Facing the oncoming Ma Long, Li Weisi did not have the slightest fear. Regardless of the difference in size between the two, he rushed over and faced Ma Long for a layup.

Can Malone bear it?Immediately, he was about to reach out and press Li Weisi down, but at the same time as he was jumping, the referee blew his whistle again.

"What? I haven't met this guy yet!" Hearing the inexplicable whistle and seeing the referee pointing at him, Ma Long's first reaction was that I haven't met Li Weisi yet!

But then Malone looked to the ground, just in time to see Rodman lying on the ground clutching his chin, how miserable and miserable his back was!

"Hey!" Seeing this, Malone didn't know what was going on, and he was tricked by Rodman again.

It turned out that when he was preparing to defend Li Weisi, Rodman got out from nowhere, seemingly to pick and roll Li Weisi, but when Malone reached out to block Li Weisi, Rodman just stuck out his chin. Then Malone's famous iron elbow hit Rodman's chin by coincidence, and Rodman fell to the ground immediately.

It has to be said that Rodman's whole process was smooth and smooth, without any flaws, and he really took his chin to smash Malone's arm. Although Malone's iron elbow only swept Rodman's chin, after all, a physical accident happened. Contact, so the referee hesitated for a long time before making up his mind to blow the whistle.

After all, just now, I just called Malone a foul, which is already suspected of being biased towards Rodman. If it wasn't for the actual foul this time, the referee would not have blown it for balance.

"You should go to Hollywood, you bastard!" Rodman stood up after seeing the referee's decision, and Malone couldn't help cursing.

"Haha, thank you for your suggestion! I will consider it, but it's time to say goodbye to you!" Rodman waved at Malone.

It turned out that in this round alone, Malone had accumulated two fouls, which was so fast that Malone didn't react subconsciously.

At this time, when Rodman mentioned it, he realized that he had committed two crimes.

According to the unwritten rules of the NBA, if a player commits two fouls in the first quarter, three fouls in the second quarter, and four fouls in the third quarter, he will be replaced and rested. This is mainly to protect the players and prevent them from affecting their subsequent performance due to too many fouls. If there are too many fouls, staying on the field will also become a presence targeted by the opponent.

Of course, there are also some daring coaches who will ignore this unwritten rule and risk putting players on the field and continue to play, but such results are hard to predict, and there are both positive and negative results.

Coach Sloan of the Jazz obviously didn't intend to take this risk. Although replacing Malone at this time would ruin the Jazz's good situation, it could avoid the team's subsequent troubles. This is the first quarter, the game time It's still growing!
In this way, after half a quarter of fierce fighting, Rodman finally used all his strength and drove Malone down.

The Jazz, who lost the team's top scorer, immediately fell into a disadvantage against the Warriors led by Li Weisi. The original leading situation was also in jeopardy.

Originally, it was already time for Li Weisi and other starters to take a break, but seeing the great situation, Nelson immediately made a decision to extend Li Weisi's playing time and try to build a greater advantage in the first quarter.

Therefore, Li Weisi played the entire first quarter like this. With his outstanding performance, the Warriors also completed the overtake of the Jazz with 37:27 in the first quarter.

Since Malone rested, the Jazz's offense has been very problematic, and there is no other strong point that can continue to provide the Jazz with scoring.

Therefore, although Rodman's tricks are a bit inauthentic, but he can't stand the high returns. It's really a good deal just looking at the results.
