Chapter 809: The linkage of the two games

Gordon. Hayward, who averaged 19.7 points, 3.7 assists and 5.0 rebounds per game, is Salt Lake City's brightest star player since Deron Williams.

It is because of Hayward's excellent play that the Jazz have a chance to make the playoffs this season. With 40 wins and 40 losses, the Jazz are just two games away from their playoff dreams. In the last two games, if the Jazz don't take it, their season's hard work will be in vain.

This season is destined to be a season for the Jazz and Hayward to take off. While they're not as great as the Mavericks, this year's Jazz is a joy for the soulless Salt Lake City.

At the same time, the game between the Warriors and the Celtics is about to start. Stevens' ambitions aren't something that can be satisfied in the first round of the playoffs, and the NCAA champion coach came to the NBA for the O'Brien Cup. Although it is unrealistic for the current Celtics to win the championship, at least the team must reach the second round.

The Warriors and Mavericks, two teams that no longer have to worry about playoff spots, will not let go, and their competition has been going on since the season opener. It will never end until the last moment

In order to avoid strong opponents in the first round, Stevens and Thomas Jr. had to gnaw the hard bone of the Warriors.

"Ready!?" The referee stood in the center circle, and Gobert stared at Favors, full of confidence.

"Are you ready!?" Bogut looked at Salinger, full of murderous energy.

The orange Spalding basketball was thrown into the air by the referee, and Gobert flicked the ball to his own half with his fingertips, and the Jazz had to withstand the Mavericks' heavy fire as soon as they came up.

Yiyang started to accelerate the moment he received the basketball, and hit the Jazz by surprise. Dallas No. 1 scored a layup, and the Mavericks had a bit of a desire to play back at the Energy Solutions Arena.

"Stephen. Curry, two steps from beyond the three-point line, hit a jumper, Isaiah. Thomas couldn't do anything about it! On the other side, Barkley was taken aback by Curry's three-pointer at the North Shore Garden. This guy can really shoot after half time.

"Bradley! Change the guard, change the guard! Stevens yelled anxiously off the court, losing to the Mavericks this time last season. This season, you can't lose to the Warriors again.

Three minutes into the first quarter, Hayward hit the Jazz's first three-pointer of the game from beyond the three-point line. It's a difficult shot, because Iguodala is actually sticking very tightly. But Hayward's shot was not flustered in the slightest, and he was still calm.

As a result, the basketball hollowed into the net and the Jazz completely equalized the score. Snyder's team, as usual.

Carlisle is restless, and the Jazz definitely have the ability to pull off an upset. If the Mavericks finish second in the regular season because of their performance in the last two games, Carlisle will probably be by himself!

In the fifth minute of the first quarter of the game, Yiyang assisted Wade to break through the restricted area and score a layup. Hood, who defended Wade, is a post-90s player, 10 years younger than Wade! Wade was born in '82 and Hood was born in '92.

However, the huge age difference has not been a stumbling block for Wade, who in fact no longer has any speed advantage to speak of. But his finishing ability in the basket confrontation still made Hood only watch the basketball go into the frame.

Watching Wade play, there is always a feeling of "your uncle is still your uncle".

Wade's goal allowed the Mavericks, who had scored two consecutive offenses, to gain a three-point advantage again. However, this advantage was filled by the Jazz again before it was covered in his pocket.

Brazilian defender Neto broke through with a cover and then used an unwatchful back pass to guide the ball to Tre very beautifully. Lyles in his hands. Lyles, a first-year rookie, didn't get much of an appearance in the first half of the season. As a 2.08-meter-tall interior lineman, Lyles' ability to fight for both defense and rebounding is very average.

But in the second half of the season, Snyder gave the youngster more opportunities to play. The reason is simple, he's a space No. 4 with three-point shooting.

The Jazz's offensive problem is that the space is too small, and with Lyles, their offensive space has opened up a lot in an instant. It seems that even Snyder has to keep up with the times.

Lyles hit an open three-pointer to help the Jazz tie the score again. Carlisle shook his head, the Jazz team looked mediocre. But anyone, rest and easily win them.

There was a lot of buzz at the North Shore Garden Arena as Thomas Jr. had just assisted Amir. Johnson put in a beautiful aerial relay to give the Celtics a four-point lead.

Stevens secretly clenched his fists, and the Warriors went to the East to spread the wilderness, but they didn't want to get through easily.

At the end of the first quarter, whether it was the Energy Solutions Arena or the North Shore Garden, the battle was extremely anxious. The Mavericks are just one point ahead of the Jazz at 26-25, while the Warriors are 27-29 and two points behind the Celtics.

Both league powerhouses are in a tough battle, and the situation remains unclear who will be the top team in the league.

After the start of the second quarter, Hayward increased the number of times he played with the ball. Iguodala found himself trying to stop Hayward as hard as trying to stop James.

Hayward's muscular body allows him to get in and out of the interior with ease, and Iguodala's growing age has long since left him in the same state as he was able to drag James to death by himself two years ago.

A breakaway layup scored the ball in a fierce confrontation and also caused Iguodala to foul. Upon landing, Hayward raised his head to the sky and let out a long roar, slamming himself in the chest. There was jubilation in the Energy Solutions Arena, and their star did not disappoint everyone!

In the end, Haywarddega hit a free throw and scored a three-pointer to complete the comeback on his own. Carlisle shook his head, this guy, he's really become a star player.

However, there is still a very clear gap between stars and superstars. In the second quarter of the game, Yiyang explained where the gap was.

Hayward had just hit a three-pointer when his good friend Yiyang returned a pullup jumper from beyond the three-point line. Hayward hit a half-volley after receiving a pass from Neto, and Yiyang used the breakthrough to break through and make the Brazilian lose his temper.

In the third round, Hayward finally missed the shot under Iguodala's tight defense. And what about Yiyang? He faced a trio of Favors, Neto and Lyles to block the ball and still miraculously score the ball.

Hayward was starting to lose some of his pace, and his scoring efficiency began to slip. Yiyang is still playing steadily, leading the Mavericks to a steady rise.

The second quarter was about to end with three minutes left, and Yiyang was replaced by Carlisle. By this time, the Mavericks had taken an eight-point lead.

Snyder wanted to take advantage of the gap between Yiyang's departures to equalize the score, but he didn't know that Shervin. Mark's excellent play shattered Snyder's illusions again.

Due to DeLong's arrival, Mark has not played many games this season. But today's outstanding performance after his partnership with DeLong made Carlisle seem to have discovered another big surprise.

"Mark's strong body makes his breakthrough unstoppable, at least in the Jazz team, there is no guard who can resist Mark!"

Mark and Deron propped up the Mavericks' second-team offense, and instead of allowing Snyder's Jazz to close the score, they widened the gap to 12 points!

Over at the North Shore Gardens, Clay. Thompson's buzzer-beating three-pointer gave the Warriors an eight-point lead at halftime. After a thrilling first quarter, both league leaders are on the right track.

In the second half of the game, Carlisle allowed Yiyang to strengthen his personal attack and make more shots. Stevens, on the other hand, let his team strengthen the team offense, specializing in Thomas Jr., Sullinger and Turner's three scoring points, making the Warriors unguardable.

Coincidentally, both Carlisle and Stevens were successful. Yiyang's individual singles caused the Jazz to lose almost all hope in the third quarter, and Hayward was still playing catch-up. When he can score, Yiyang can score too. But when he can't score, Yiyang can still score!

The point differential was slowly widened, the Jazz lacked stars, and once Hayward was restricted, it was difficult for anyone to step up again. At the end of the third quarter, the gap became 16 points, and the Jazz were already hanging on a cliff with half a foot.

Thomas Jr. threw and passed in a row, allowing the Celtics to play an excellent counterattack. At the end of the third quarter, the Green Shirts outscored the Warriors by 4 points, and they are no longer the eastern fish belly to be slaughtered.

Finally, the finale of the regular season has been revealed. In the last regular season game, both the Grizzlies and the Spurs have run out of desire and will definitely make a big rotation. So in the last game of the regular season, both the Mavericks and the Warriors will definitely win.

Therefore, the final order of the regular season standings depends on today's last quarter!

In the fourth quarter of the game, Yiyang still maintained the pressure on the Jazz. The Jazz have played really well and everyone has given it their all. But in the face of an inexplicable superstar, Snyder was so angry that he smashed two tactical boards.

When he saw that Hood had defended very well, and his palms were attached to Yiyang's eyes, but Yiyang was still able to score goals, Snyder had no emotions to vent except for being irritable.

It's like when playing NBA2K games, the computer scores all kinds of unreasonable goals, and many people will be so angry that they will smash the controller. Snyder wasn't playing a game, so he had to play against the tactical board.

"Also, the 40th point of the game! He is really not soft on his college teammates! "Mike. Brin was completely stunned by Yiyang's performance, as long as this guy wanted to score, Westbrook couldn't beat him!

With five minutes left in the fourth quarter, Yiyang had already widened the gap to 21 points. 5 min, 21 min. In a team with superstars, maybe they can fight again. But for the Jazz, a "grassroots" team, 21 points means nothing more than death!

Carlisle replaced all five key players and declared the victory! Now, it's up to the Golden State Warriors!

"Darrell, what's going on over there in the North Shore Gardens!?" After getting off the field, Yiyang immediately squeezed to the assistant coach's side. On his phone, a live stream of the North Shore Gardens game is being played.

The Warriors eased up in the fourth quarter and regained control of the game. Several waves of their offense nearly cost the Celtics their life, but Stevens' team just couldn't die.

"Boss, the Jazz lost, we have to win the game!" Warriors assistant coach Luke Murphy. Wharton whispered a reminder in Kerr's ear, and Kerr nodded, then stood on the sidelines and motioned for everyone to step up.

However, the Green Shirts' defensive toughness was much more than Kerr expected. Ten seconds into the game, Harrison. Barnes assisted Curry on a shot from a step beyond the three-point line to close the gap to one point!

Stevens calmly called a timeout and laid out the tactics for the final attack. His goal is simple, to score without giving the Warriors a chance to foul!

Thomas Jr., who is only 1.75 meters tall, was stunned to get out of a bunch of muscular men's pushing, and was ready to shoot when he received the basketball!

Curry stretched out his hand to foul, but Thomas Jr. flashed nimbly, and before everyone could react, he quickly entered the restricted area, made a layup, and re-widened the gap to three points!

"Isaiah. Thomas, oh God, he almost killed the Golden State Warriors! The strongest 175 in history, Isaiah. Thomas is the greatest little player in the world for you! "Barkley is crazy, North Shore Gardens is crazy, Stevens is crazy.

Who says 1.75m can't play basketball? 1.75 meters playing basketball, even big men are afraid!

In the last 3 seconds, Curry's three-point shot failed, and the electronic beep suddenly sounded. At that moment, the entire North Shore Gardens was boiling, and the whole of Boston was boiling.

"They did it, they crushed the incredible Golden State Warriors! The Great Isaiah. Thomas, the Great Brad. Stevens, the great Boston Celtics! Auerbach has a spirit in heaven, and he blesses the Celtics back to the top! ”

"Win! The Celtics won! Inside the Energy Solutions Arena, Armstrong shouted excitedly.

Carlisle was startled at first, but quickly regained his composure. Whatever Stevens did it, he was amazing.

So ...... Lovely Steve. Cole, his team has 70+ wins, and he can only be the second in the league!

The domination of the Dallas Mavericks still can't be broken!
