Chapter 144 Letting Me Shoot Is Equal to Death
At the beginning of the second quarter.
All the players on the Jazz team were full of energy. Mitchell did not play in the starting lineup of this quarter.
The substitute players were more energetic at this time, and they launched a fierce attack on the Lakers' basket without stopping.
This sudden attack stunned the other players of the Lakers.
Then they quickly began to defend.
The Lakers' defense was very fast, but at this moment Sashiro shouted:
"Don't worry."
Everyone paused for a moment because of Sashiro's words.
Then, the Jazz seized the opportunity and attacked fiercely.
A beautiful quick pass went straight into the paint.
Score!!
When everyone saw the Jazz score, their faces changed slightly.
What is this?
Did they let it go, mess it up, or collect money? ?
They're making a fast break, and you tell us not to be anxious?
If that shout just now wasn't from Sashiro, they would probably have to deal with the traitor.
They even thought of the plot:
Report to the coach, there is a traitor among us!!
How to deal with it?
I just said that!
...
Sashiro explained to them quietly:
"I told you not to worry, because the opponent deliberately let you fall into this rhythm."
"What?"
Sashiro glanced at the head coach sitting on the sidelines.
Then he urged quietly:
"I told you not to worry, just trust me! I can't explain so much to you now."
After all, Sashiro didn't want the coach to see him leading the team and openly defying the coach's tactics.
After all, this is not giving people face! !
People usually trust you so much, but now you take the lead in not following the coach's tactics. Where do you expect them to put the coach's face?
That's exactly why.
Here, Sashiro just finished speaking and continued to focus on the game.
The Lakers have the ball.
Because of what Sashiro just said, everyone's pace has obviously slowed down.
Then a very interesting phenomenon occurred.
On the court, the Lakers players were moving forward slowly as if they were listless...
This state is exactly the same as Sashiro's state in the first quarter of the game!!
At this time, the audience said:
"This is contagious…"
"So, if you keep company with a good person, you will become good; if you keep company with a bad person, you will become bad; if you keep company with Sashiro... you will stay healthy!"
"What's going on? The whole team is like this?"
"Is it because of altitude sickness? That shouldn't be the case! Other teams have played here before, and the second quarter has just begun. They should still have some energy!"
"This is weird, what kind of tactics is this from the Lakers?"
...
This operation left the audience confused.
Lakers head coach Luke Walton was also confused:
"Hmm? Is this the strategy I arranged? Why does it seem to be different...?"
On the court, both sides exchanged a few more balls.
The pace of this game was very interesting, one offense was very fast and the other was very slow.
The two sides took turns like this, as if they did not interfere with each other.
Almost halfway through the second quarter, the Jazz replaced Mitchell.
When Mitchell came on the court, the commentator also said:
"After the break just now, I believe that after Mitchell comes on the court, the Jazz's offense will become even more fierce!!"
"I have to say that the addition of Mitchell this year is indeed a big change, and in this game, we can see that Mitchell's performance is not inferior to Sashiro's at all."
"That's right! Sashiro seems to be a little uncomfortable in this game. So far, Sashiro has only contributed 7 points, 4 assists, and 2 steals."
"Well, this data cannot be said to be bad, but it is indeed a bit disappointing for our expectations of him!"
"On the other hand, although Mitchell had two turnovers, he still scored 12 points and 3 assists in the first quarter. He can really be said to be a very efficient player!"
"It seems like there are so many talented players this year! These new players have really brought us some big surprises!"
"I wonder if Mitchell will give us a better performance in this quarter?"
...
When Mitchell returned to the court.
You can clearly hear the cheers of the Jazz fans suddenly getting louder.
Here, Mitchell has the ball.
Rubio set a pick-and-roll for him.
Then, after Mitchell passed Sashiro, he took two steps and stopped directly at the free throw line.
Then, a confident drifting shot!!
Score!
Two points were scored again.
At this time, the score between the two teams had been widened to 12 points.
"It seems that Mitchell is still in hot form in this quarter!!"
The commentator couldn't help but sigh.
At this time, the head coach of the Jazz team shouted excitedly:
"Just play like this, and in one go, we'll narrow the gap to 20 points and make them completely lose hope!!"
Mitchell gave him an OK gesture.
The Jazz coach knows that anxiety and pressure will bring more fatigue to the Lakers.
If they maintain this advantage, their physical strength might quickly reach its limit.
This makes for an easy win.
Easy!
But.
How easy is it to widen the gap in score against Sashiro?
The ball changes.
As soon as the ball came into Sashiro's hands, Sashiro faced the basket directly.
Take action!
"Swish!!"
A crisp sound of the net being rubbed was heard.
The ball fell into the basket with an extremely perfect arc.
Three points!!
To be honest, if there were 4-point, 5-point, or even 6-point shots in the NBA...
Then there is no need to continue playing this game.
So accurate!!
This three-pointer made the Jazz players who had just returned to defense look confused.
Woc?
What are you doing?
We run so fast just to consume your energy when you attack!
We ended up running for nothing? ?
Seeing their surprised expressions, Sashiro spread his hands helplessly and said:
"Who told you to let your opponent shoot? Did your coach tell you that?"
"Who dares to let the opponent shoot? Huh? Isn't this just waiting to lose?"
"If I were a coach, I would have replaced all of you long ago!!"
...
The expressions of the five people opposite were like... sweating soybeans.
We didn't let you shoot, did we?
The key is that you threw the ball right after you caught it. Who can defend against that?!
Their complaints were accidentally heard by Sashiro.
Sashiro is a patient person.
I explained to them very warmly:
"Isn't that different from person to person? Everyone has different strength and range.
Mainly because mine is bigger, just bear with it!! "
