NBA: About Me Being Reincarnated As Yasuo, the Wind Walker - Chapter 198
[NBA: About my reincarnation as Hayate Yasuo]【】
Post-match interview.
The air in the whole room was extremely heavy, and Deron Williams’ face was about to bleed, and he didn’t say a word.
He was angry, helpless and aggrieved. He wanted to end the entire post-match press conference in such a nearly transparent state.
But the group of reporters in front of him did not give him such a chance.
“6 of 23 shots, 5 of 5 free throws, 18 points, 3 rebounds, 8 assists, and 8 turnovers.”
“During the 14 minutes and 28 seconds when Zhang Jun defended you alone, you scored 2 of 13, and you scored 4 points in the crucial fourth quarter.”
“Deron, what do you want to say about tonight’s game?”
This is not knowing what to ask.
Facing the provocation of this group of reporters, Deron Williams punched the table angrily, and roared with his eyes wide open.
“This is just a game, and then we will return to the Jazz’s home court, and we will let them know what the terrifying Salt Lake City is.”
“Zhang Jun didn’t defend me. I just didn’t feel good tonight. The Jazz will blow the counterattack horn in the next game. We will defeat this team and win the No. 1 team in the league.”
Deron Williams spoke hoarsely, looking like he was extremely confident, but the group of reporters in front of him almost didn’t believe his words at all.
“Before the series started, you said you were the best guard in the Western Conference. Do you still think so?”
here we go again!
Gritting his teeth with anger, Deron Williams repeated: “Of course! I’m still the best guard in the West. No player is better than me. I will lead the Jazz one step closer this season and we will win The final championship.”
A reporter really couldn’t stand Deron Williams’ self-confidence, so he reminded: “Zhang Jun of the Portland Trail Blazers made 14 of 23 shots tonight, 3 of 6 three-pointers, and 6 free throws. In 5, scored 36 points, 5 rebounds and 8 assists.”
“The same number of shots as you, but Zhang Jun scored a full 18 points more than you. What’s interesting is that the Trail Blazers also beat the Jazz by 18 points tonight.”
“It’s a magic number.”
So this is to say that the reason why the Jazz lost to the Trail Blazers was because he lost to Zhang Jun by 18 points. Deron Williams became more and more angry, and finally put down the microphone and left.
He knows the urgency of this group of reporters. They never hesitate to speak harsh words to losers. The only way to win back their praise is to win.
“I will win tomorrow’s game, for sure!”
Watching Deron Williams leaving angrily, Jazz head coach Jerry Sloan shook his head helplessly.
He is very aware of the temper of his lover, and the other party is a person who is born to be strong. Since the high school league, Deron Williams has been a star player in the school and the region. He was selected with the third overall pick in the 2018 NBA Draft.
Even after entering the NBA, Deron Williams played well in the league.
The best rookie team, the National Skills Championship, the best team in the regular season, the playoffs eliminated the championship favorite Rockets many times……

This is why Deron Williams will proudly call him the best guard in the West this season.
“His growth rate is indeed very fast. He is a very capable player, except that Deron Williams, who was not selected as an All-Star, won countless honors in his rookie season.”
“He is also declaring the entire league. It is a very outrageous mistake not to select him as an All-Star.”
“But, he is facing Zhang Jun now.”
Jerry Sloan couldn’t help heaving a long sigh.
From the beginning of coaching in 1979 to the present, Jerry Sloan has never seen such a player in his 30-year coaching career.
The rookie won the league scoring title in the first year, and won the league scoring title in the second year. At the same time, he also won the youngest regular season mvp in NBA history. More importantly, he has been selected to the best team for two consecutive years in his career. , won the All-Star MVP, and led the Portland Trail Blazers to the Western Conference Finals in the first year.
Except for Magic Johnson back then, Jerry Sloan couldn’t think of any other rookie who could be as fierce as Zhang Jun. He was really the pinnacle of a rookie. Whether it was physical talent or technical ability, Zhang Jun would surpass Deron Williams. Si abused to pieces.
Thinking of the scene on the field where Deron Williams couldn’t even score under Zhang Jun’s defense, Jerry Sloan already knew how the Trail Blazers were going to play and how to limit Deron Williams. James.
………
April 24.
The Jazz host the Portland Trail Blazers.
As soon as he got off the plane, Aldridge felt a sense of oppression and suffocation in his heart.
“Aldridge was diagnosed with congenital heart disease when he was born, and was even diagnosed as clinical death because of intermittent no heartbeat at the end of the birth, but the miracle is that shortly after each intermittent cardiac arrest , his heart was able to resume normal operation again, and he was lucky enough to survive.”
“As Aldridge grew up, the intermittent cardiac arrests gradually disappeared, and when everyone thought he had returned to a normal person, he often had arrhythmia problems since the high school league. .”
Monty Williams talked about the existence of Aldridge, and he also noticed the discomfort of the other party after he arrived in Salt Lake City.
In the past, when the Trail Blazers played teams with a plateau home like the Jazz or the Nuggets, they would selectively rest Aldridge unless he felt good on the day or did not feel any discomfort. Otherwise, the coaching staff of the Jazz He was never allowed to fight.
But it’s different now. This is a life-and-death playoff game, and if you are not careful, you will lose the game. So on this stage, let alone the coaching staff of the Trail Blazers, even Aldridge himself would not allow himself to play blindly. A truce due to injury.
Nate – McMillan was silent and did not speak, he was waiting for the results of the team doctor’s examination.
After the chief team doctor checked Aldridge’s condition, he frowned first, then stretched and smiled: “There is no problem, he can play the game.”
Nate McMillan reconfirmed with a look of surprise: “It really doesn’t have any impact?”

The team doctor frowned after hearing this and said, “Could it be that you doubt my ability?”
“My grandparents have been doctors for generations. My grandfather is a well-known local veterinarian in Portland. I don’t know how many difficult and miscellaneous diseases have been solved. This simple examination is not difficult for me.”
Nate McMillan nodded after hearing this. He also knew that the team doctor had a very good relationship with the general manager of the team, Steve Patterson, so no one paid attention to what he said, and he could say whatever he wanted. .
Nate McMillan is too lazy to argue with him, as long as the result is good, fortunately, the opponent has not made any major mistakes this year. Under his leadership, the team doctors of the Trail Blazers have completed the instructions given by the coaching staff very well. any.
“Then let Aldridge play the game normally, we must also win this game tonight and end the series with the Jazz as soon as possible.”
“We have stronger enemies behind us.”
Energy Solutions Arena.
The fans in Salt Lake City were very excited. As the home of the devil with the longest history in the NBA, the Utah Jazz has the purest and most fanatical fans.
Deron Williams took a deep breath, looked at Zhang Jun’s Trail Blazers on the court, and said with clenched fists.
“I’m going to beat you all tonight.”
The whistle sounded and the game started.
The Jazz attacked in the first round.
Deron Williams came up and took the initiative to call Carlos Boozer’s pick-and-roll, and the Blazers were defending him at this time or Steve Blake.
The latter did not have the ability to block Deron Williams and get rid of the pick-and-roll defense in advance, so in the first round, Steve Blake took the initiative to choose to go around the defense when encountering a pick-and-roll, limiting Deron Williams. Break through and turn to give up the space outside the three-point line.
Swish!
Deron Williams raised the knife and dropped the ball, and the basketball hit the net.
“Beautiful three-pointer, the Jazz completed the offense in the first round, and Deron Williams was really tough tonight.”
After scoring the goal, Deron Williams extended his hand to give his teammates a high-five, and at the same time gave Zhang Jun a provocative look.
Zhang Jun felt the gaze falling on him, and seeing Deron Williams’ face like a fighting cock, he was still a little relaxed.
This is not the time for him to fully fire.
Luo Yin was holding the ball, and it was also Aldridge’s pick-and-roll. Obviously, the Jazz did a better job with the same pick-and-roll.
Aldridge’s uplift pick-and-roll did not completely fend off the defender. Although he and Luo Yincheng switched defenses, the latter neither got a comfortable three-point shooting opportunity nor had room for a breakthrough.
Carlos Boozer chose to take a step back to defend. In this position, he can not only save to defend Luo Yin’s three-pointer, but also have an extra step to follow the defense during the defensive breakthrough.

Faced with such a defense, Luo Yin still chose to play hard.
He first made an accelerated breakthrough. Although Boozer was a step slower in his reaction, he still kept up with that step.

In this position, if Luo Yin continues to choose to hit the basket, there is a high chance of being blocked, so he chooses an emergency stop jumper at a position one step from the free throw line.
“This time Carlos Boozer can’t keep up. The big players are not as agile.”
“The timing of Luo Yin’s emergency stop is also very good, that is, the moment Carlos Boozer stepped back to follow the defense and raised his foot, Luo Yin suddenly stopped for a jump shot. At this time, Boozer did not have a point to take off.”
“This is the rhythm of the offense, this is the details of the singles.”
“In the past, we could often see such details on Kobe, so many times on the court, Kobe took off to attack, but the defenders just stood there stupidly, and there was no time to take off.”
“Some fans will scold this fan at this time, angrily scolding him why he didn’t jump. In fact, they are all NBA players. He doesn’t want to jump up to defend. It’s really too late.”
Kenny Smith nodded in praise and said: “This is a textbook-like singles teaching. This is the offensive footwork. Luo Yin is worthy of the title of Yellow Mamba. There are too many Kobe’s singles skills in his movements.”
Duang!
Basketball unexpectedly strikes iron at this time.
Barkley couldn’t help shouting in grief, “It’s a pity that I didn’t make it.”
“All the previous processes were perfect, but it was the last one that I didn’t grasp.”
“Normally speaking, it shouldn’t be. This is the point where Luo Yin often shoots. He has played in this position countless times, but this shot missed a lot.”
“It’s not like him.”
Luo Yin also frowned in surprise when he missed the shot.
“Why is my shooting state so bad tonight?”
next round.
After Deron Williams and Carlos Boozer picked and rolled, the latter shot a pass and hit the middle distance steadily.
Turning his head, Luo Yin’s shot to the basket was given to Aldridge, who made a shot in an unguarded wide open.
Duang!
“Strike the iron again!”
“What happened to the Trail Blazers tonight, that’s not how they should be.”
“They’re the best offensive team in the league.”
Off the court, Nate McMillan couldn’t sit still. He didn’t score in two consecutive rounds, but the opposite Jazz scored two in a row.
In the next round, Joel Pulzbilla on the inside ate a cake and dunked, and even smashed the basketball on the rim and flew high. Such an outrageous offense finally made Monty Williams affirmative.
“It seems that the plateau combat still has an impact on the players. Their shooting feel tonight seems to be infected, and they collectively misfire.”
Nate McMillan also found this problem, and he agreed: “Besides this explanation, I can’t think of a reason why the players feel so bad~www.mtlnovel.com~ We can’t sit still like this anymore, we have to act now.”
In the past, Nate McMillan’s challenge was mostly offensive when the players had such a bad touch, but tonight it was obvious that the players’ shooting hands felt the impact, and the offense might still have the same result.

“We’ve got to adjust our defense.”
Hearing this, Monty Williams couldn’t help staring at Nate McMillan with wide eyes. He wondered if his head coach was being funny. Don’t you have any idea about the Trail Blazers’ defense? Adjust defense? How to adjust?
Nate McMillan walked up to the tech table and called the first timeout of the night.
He replaced Steve Blake and took Nicholas Batum and said: “Next, Zhang Jun will be the main attack, and we will focus on breakthroughs with higher offensive efficiency.”
“It’s impossible for our touch to be so outrageous all night, and you all have to adjust your state as soon as possible.”
“Zhang Jun, you are now the team’s point guard, and the task of defending the Jazz’s perimeter engine Deron Williams is entrusted to you.”
Zhang Jun nodded in surprise.
After all, letting him play the main offense so early, and switching to the point guard is indeed very different from usual.
However, with the experience of successfully defending Deron Williams in the last game, Zhang Jun expressed that he has no pressure at all.
“That guy provoked me as soon as he came up, and I really want to teach him a lesson.”
