On May 2, before the G1 of the semifinals between the Warriors and the Jazz, the Warriors held a grand speech celebration for the three players who won the regular season MVP, Chen Xiao, Wade and Ron Howard.

The three of them also delivered a joint MVP award speech on stage in a very touching atmosphere.

Yes, this time, the three people's MVP award speeches are together, and the title is us along the way.

The three recalled the process of the three of them sixteen years ago from knowing each other and progressing together to playing together again this season and their mental journey over the years.

Although the three of them did not deliberately express their emotions, the three of them still moved many people on the scene and wiped away their tears.

Seriously, for the current generation of American basketball fans, Marquette University's G3 is really a generation that cannot be bypassed.

Just like the Michigan Five Tigers in history, if in the NBA, they can achieve the same achievements as Marquette's Three Eagles, and won 13 NBA championships in 2014, then in history, the Michigan Five Tigers will also become unstoppable in the American basketball world. Open legendary existence.

It is precisely because of this that the three of them shared the honor of regular season MVP together so much this season.

It is precisely because of this reason that the combination of the three this season has such incredible legitimacy.

It is impossible for any group of three active top-10 players in history to get as much support as the Warriors this season.

And now, for these people, most of their expectations for Marquette's three eagles to reunite have been completed, and now there is only the last NBA championship left. As long as they can win the NBA championship, then the three eagles The combination is really perfect.

Therefore, after this MVP speech, the players of the Warriors team and the fans of the Warriors team were shocked.

This made the Jazz, the away team in this game, a little incredible.

The Warriors have indeed been called the Devil's home in recent years, but they are not to such an extent.

So before the game, the head coach of the Jazz, Quinn Snyder, repeatedly warned his players: "In this game, you must be prepared to face the impact, stand on the defense, and wait for an opportunity to counterattack!"

For the Jazz, their goal in this series is simple: to create more trouble for the Warriors.

In fact, for a team like the Jazz, they won the fourth place in the Western Conference in the regular season this season and entered the second round of the playoffs. In fact, they have already achieved their goal.

In the end, there is no pressure on whether you can continue to go down. To be able to win a game is actually a victory. If you can't win a game, winning a half-time or even a quarter and a half is a victory.

The gap between the two teams is so big that even diehard Jazz fans can't expect their own team to cause too much trouble for the Warriors.

Of course, in the playoffs last season, although the Jazz were easily defeated by the Warriors in the playoffs, the Jazz still caused some trouble for the Warriors, especially in the playoffs against the Warriors last season. Ingalls of fame.

Because of his outstanding performance against the Warriors in the playoffs last season and his outstanding performance against Klay, Ingles has secured the Jazz's starting position this season.

In this game, the Jazz's starting players are also center Yi Jianlian, power forward Ilyasova, small forward Gordon Hayward, shooting guard Ingles, and point guard Jordan.

The Jazz's starting lineup for this game is a four forward with a guard.

Millsap's starting inside line in the regular season was a substitute in this game.

It can be seen that the Jazz are preparing to use the starting lineup to give the Warriors speed and intensity. From the beginning of the game, they will increase the intensity of the game.

On the Warriors side, the starting lineup is center Chen Xiao, power forward Nongmei, small forward Wade, shooting guard Klay, and point guard Ron Howard.

Because the Jazz do not have a good enough offensive big center, in the regular season, either Yi Jianlian or Millsap played the center, and these two played center, no matter which one, Chen Xiao has an advantage, so in the face of When facing the Jazz, the Warriors' starting inside line was a combination of Chen Xiao and Nongmei, not Jokic and Chen Xiao.

For the Warriors, it is not difficult to play the Jazz, but the strength of the Jazz is obvious to all in the NBA.

The Jazz have a very strong player who averages double figures per game. The Jazz has seven players. The offense of the Jazz is very scattered, and basically everyone has enough offensive ability.

In this case, as long as the Jazz really blow up, it can really blow up any team.

So for such a team, even the Warriors need to be cautious.

On the court, Yi Jianlian and Nongmei jumped the ball, and Nongmei successfully got the first attack chance for the Warriors.

The slow-warming Warriors, the reason why they are slow is because no one of the Warriors' starters has enough athletic ability to bring the rhythm up.

Ron Howard, Clay, Wade, Thick Eyebrows, Chen Xiao.

As far as the Warriors' starting lineup is concerned, the most athletic player now is the 35-year-old Wade.

With such a team, it is very difficult for you to take advantage of the bonus of offense-defense transition.

Such a team needs to be in position from the first round to play.

As for the opponents of the Warriors, because they were facing the Warriors, the game was very tight and fierce at the beginning of the game.

When the opponent's defense is very tight and the fight is fierce, no matter how strong your positional players are, they will encounter some troubles.

Therefore, in the face of the opponent's defense, the Warriors' starting team lacks the speed to tear apart the opponent's defense or play fast offense and defense. The Warriors' offense has some problems at first.

Generally speaking, the Warriors' offense at the beginning of the first quarter is basically Chen Xiao, Wade or Ron Howard creating opportunities for their teammates through their own singles.

Although Chen Xiao, Wade and Ron Howard's one-on-one singles are very capable and create many opportunities, the chances created by this one-on-one singles after falling into the position are high, and it is impossible to have those offensive and defensive opportunities. The conversion efficiency is high.

However, if the opponent can't play fast offense, the Warriors' slow heat is not that slow.

In the first attack of the Warriors in this game, the ball hit Chen Xiao, who was in the inside position.

Facing Chen Xiao's singles against the UAE, the Jazz did not attack from the very beginning.

Now the whole world knows that it is absolutely impossible to double-team this Warriors team.

Infinite defense switching is enough.

Just like what Houston did to the Warriors in history, switch defenses infinitely and bet on the efficiency of the Warriors' singles.

On my side, I try to send some strikers with fast speed, good defense, and long wingspan to rotate.

The Jazz team in this game is like this. They took down Millsap in order not to have a single black hole in their starting lineup.

It's just obvious that for the UAE, defending Chen Xiao one-on-one is a huge test. Although he is taller than Chen Xiao, his strength and athletic ability are not as good as Chen Xiao.

Coupled with Chen Xiao's technical ability, the pressure of the UAE's defense against Chen Xiao in the low position is still great.

Of course, compared to Dream Chasing Green, who was beaten by Chen Xiao in the finals last year, the United Arab League also has its own advantages. His height can allow him to cover Chen Xiao, and he can use his height advantage to let Chen Xiao a little bit, instead of chasing him. Like Meng Green, his height is not as good, his strength is not as good, and he is not as good in all aspects.

So, don't look at the UAE's defense and the Dream Chasing Green are not in the same dimension, but the UAE's defense against Chen Xiao may be better than the Dream Chasing Green.

However, this time, the United Arab still failed to block Chen Xiao's position in singles. After Chen Xiao made three consecutive baskets, he used the space of the United Arab who wanted to go forward and continue to block after being pushed away by Chen Xiao. In the first place, Chen Xiao quickly turned his back to break through, and he was a one-handed dunk when he was strong!

"This style of play..."

Seeing Chen Xiao's attacking style, Mai Zi who was sitting on the sidelines of the commentary didn't know what to say.

"It's a typical Barkley style of play."

Chris Webber said with a smile.

That's how Barkley played.

After Chen Xiao gained weight this season, although her **** is still not that big, her strength is enormous.

Now, the league's average insiders really can't stop Chen Xiao from sinking to the bottom.

After sinking to the bottom and turning around and dunking, this Barkley-style play has become Chen Xiao's current specialty.

For fans, Chen Xiao's style of play is very beautiful, just appreciate it.

But for Chen Xiao's former opponents and teammates like Maizi and Weber, Chen Xiao's style of play is too incredible.

Because when Chen Xiao was young, he was one of the top five guards along with Maizi, Kobe, Carter and Iverson.

Although Chen Xiao is also as famous as Duncan, Garnett, Weber, and drivers in the top five power forwards.

But to be honest, at that time, Chen Xiao's power forward's style of play was still very outside line, so every time he encountered Duncan, Chen Xiao would play very difficult.

When Duncan stepped on Marquette's Mitsubishi in the Magic, the only championship in the last 14 years without the participation of Marquette's Mitsubishi was the one who stepped on Chen Xiao's top championship in the power forward position.

Let's just put it this way, at that time, although Chen Xiao was also very strong as a power forward, in the interior, Chen Xiao didn't have any dominance.

And now...

As far as the Barkley style of play like Chen Xiao is concerned, his dominance is really unbelievable.

So this season, many people are discussing that Chen Xiao will gain weight to play inside, and when they give up outside play, they are saying: "Even if God's legs can't sprint, he is an enhanced version of peak Barkley!"

Yes, this is not disrespect to Barkley. The strength and style of play that Chen Xiao has shown in the NBA this season is really an enhanced version of the peak Barkley. Barkley is not as strong as Chen Xiao's shooting ability and passing. The ball ability is naturally not as strong as Chen Xiao's ability to drive his teammates.

Of course, the Jazz are very clear about the strength of Chen Xiao and the strength of the Warriors.

Although they are going to grab the start of this game, as Jazz head coach Snyder said before the game, prepare for difficulties.

The slow heat of the Warriors cannot be captured by any team.

The Jazz have to be mentally prepared that they can't catch the slow heat of the Warriors when they come up, and then be crushed by the Warriors.

And the players of the Jazz, do you have such mental preparation?

Of course there is.

Therefore, the players of the Jazz played very modestly and coldly.

The core of the Jazz's tactical system is the "new black and white double evil" pick-and-roll.

The pick-and-roll of Jordan and Yi Jianlian is the tactical cornerstone of the Jazz.

Naturally, the Jazz's first offense was the pick-and-roll between Jordan and the UAE.

Especially in the matchup between Chen Xiao and Alian, Chen Xiao is much shorter than Alian. In this case, the pick-and-roll between Jordan and Alian will be even more powerful.

However, in this pick-and-roll, the United Arab against Jordan is Roger, who is one of the strongest pick-and-roll players in the league.

This time, the pick-and-roll between Jordan and the UAE did not complete the transition for the UAE.

In the end, Ah Lian did not confront Brother Luo, Brother Luo successfully grabbed the past, but Ah Lian still had to face Chen Xiao directly.

Although Chen Xiao is much shorter than him, of course Ah Lian is not willing to face Chen Xiao if he can.

However, the current UAE is really excellent in shooting stability.

Especially after the baptism of the MVP of last year's Olympic Games, the UAE is even better now.

In the Jazz team this season, the United Arab's mid-range shooting rate is as high as 50%. This shooting rate can really rival the strongest master driver of this style of play.

Historically, it is said that Alian is like a driver, which may make many people laugh.

And in this time and space, especially this season, saying that UAE is like a driver will not make people laugh, but will give people a sense of identity.

With a swipe, Alian made a difficult mid-range shot in the face of Chen Xiao's defense.

2 to 2!

After the United Arab hit the ball, Snyder next to him breathed a sigh of relief.

The pick-and-roll tactics are most afraid that the pick-and-roll will not cause dislocation, and at the same time, it will not cause double-teaming. This time, the Jazz's pick-and-roll did not cause dislocation or double-teaming, so it did not create any chance. In the end, it can only rely on the individual ability of the players.

And Yi's personal offensive ability is strong.

However, it is clear that this offense helped the Jazz through Yi's personal ability.

But the picture of Ron Howard defending the Jazz's pick-and-roll just now made Snyder sigh. UU reading www.uukanshu.com

One of the best defensive perimeter players in NBA history, this is no bragging.

Just like Kidd back then, Ron Howard is known as the king of pick-and-roll defense. Any pick-and-roll team encounters Ron Howard, and it is really bad luck.

This time Yi used his personal ability to save the team, what about next time?

Facing God's defense, can Yi have a 50% hit rate in the past?

The singles of the Warriors depend on individual ability.

After being strangled to death by Ron Howard in the pick-and-roll, the Jazz had to rely on individual ability in the end.

Comparing the two, their personal abilities are a bit poorer!

It has to be said that Snyder is still very discerning.

In this game, the Warriors and the Jazz played a singles-style game, and in the end, the Warriors easily defeated the Jazz 116-94.

In the next three games, the Jazz scored less than 100 points per game, while the Warriors scored more than 115 points per game.

The Warriors easily swept the Jazz 4-0 in the Western Conference semifinals.

After advancing to the conference semifinals first, the Warriors once again advanced to the conference finals.

Two consecutive sweeps.

A very dominant win in eight consecutive games.

The general trend of the Warriors seems to have risen.
