"I reiterate that our team has no problems, and there are no so-called internal strife or conflicts you imagine. Now we are still a very united overall team, so all your guesses are without any basis."

"Karl's game is very good. When he returned to the locker room, he apologized like all of us. He did do something stupid on the court, which hurt the team, but we believe that was not his intention, he didn't think about doing that, he was not a dirty player."

"Why don't I pass the ball to Carl? Sorry, I'm the team's organizational guard. I can choose to pass the ball to any player on the team who has a chance. This has nothing to do with what Carl does on the court. He is a very good leader and he knows what he should do."

The day after the Jazz lost to the Pacers away on March 18, it almost caused an uproar in the whole United States. You know, the Jazz are the absolute focus of everyone as the regular season is about to end. Now no one can skip the Jazz when everyone talks about the NBA. In this case, when everyone is looking forward to how many records the Jazz can set in the regular season and how many awards it will take, this team actually happened to this team. Isn’t this an uproar and incredible enough?

Although the Jazz, whether Stockton or Jerry Sloan, said at the post-match press conference that the team had no problems. "In fact, who would believe these things?

When the Jazz and the Pacers finished their match, they were fined 10,000 US dollars for retaliatory elbows on the court and suspended for one game. This was not the first time Malone received such punishment. In the first two seasons, Malone also suffered such punishment in order to stand up for Stockton to elbow Isaiah Thomas, but can that elbow hit with this elbow? The last time Malone elbow hit Thomas, although many people also accused Malone of the last time Malone elbowed Thomas. But everyone knows that it was something Thomas did inauthentic, because the Dream Team lost the election and abused Stockton once at his Pistons. There is no need to run to the Jazz to abuse Stockton at home. In that case, Malone directly chose to leave the court with Thomas in order to protect his good friends. Although this behavior is wrong, the motivation is worthy of recognition.

And this time, Malone is very suspicious in both behavior and motivation, because no one can see why he did that, so there is only one final reason. Malone is venting his dissatisfaction with some people in the team, and who he vents his dissatisfaction with? As long as everyone who watched the game knows, naturally Stockton, who doesn't pass the ball to him throughout the game.

After all, no one is a fool. Even if Stockton and Jerry Sloan repeatedly reiterate that the team has no problems, no one with a little IQ will believe it.

What made these people even more convinced was that after the league's punishment came out, the Jazz's boss Kal Malone did not follow the Jazz to Charlotte to play back-to-back away games after the game with the Pacers. The Jazz's main player actually flew back to Salt Lake City from Indianapolis. You know, although Malone was suspended for one game due to elbow strike, the Jazz's away trip in the East was not just the Hornets, except for the back-to-back hitting Hornets on March 19.

, and there is also the away game against the Hawks on March 21. Malone really couldn't play when playing against the Hornets, but he could definitely play against the Hawks. Moreover, the Hawks are now the number one team in the Eastern Conference regular season. Although this team traded Dominic Wilkins, after Dominic Wilkins left, the team's record did not mention any impact. The current record is still 45 wins and 19 losses, which is very outstanding, and its strength is much stronger than the Pacers and the Cavaliers.

In this case, Malone actually chose to leave the team and return to Salt Lake City. How could this behavior be normal?

What makes every media even more crazy is that Lin Han, who has always liked to tease them during interviews, actually refused the interview directly after the game with the Pacers. Whether it is the post-match press conference or the locker room interview event, Lin Han refused. It can be seen that the Jazz's new player seems to be very resistant to attending the press conference with Stockton.

Therefore, with the prompts of this series of indirect evidence, Stockton or Jerry Sloan does not need to admit that this is enough for these uncrowned kings.

"Ten years of partnerships fell apart? Malone was dissatisfied with Stockton, and the Jazz had an internal strife!"

"Stoketon's ball dominance attributes are over, Karl Malone can't bear it anymore!"

"For the sake of MVP, Stockton frequently used his tricks, and Malone was forced to fight back?"

"The Jazz's internal strife is getting more and more intense, and the super rookie Lin Han defaults on the rumor"

Therefore, when the Jazz left Indianapolis and came to Charlotte, the NBA's public opinion circle was almost crazy. It was not just the media that were crazy speculating about what happened to the Jazz, and why such a good relationship between Malone and Stockton had such a problem.

When this almost impossible thing happened, it was indeed eye-catching enough. Of course, for most people, there is probably nothing else to do except for the MVP incident that has been popular in recent times.

You should know that although Lin Han's MVP rankings have always been ranked second by the NBA official, for most media experts, Lin Han has never been the real second candidate. The two strongest competitors in the regular season MVP this year have always been Stockton and Malone. One of these two is the jazz metronome and the other is the jazz cornerstone. In this case, when Stockton has been increasingly recognized in recent times, Stockton naturally has greater pressure on Malone. Similarly, when Stockton sees that he can surpass Malone to win Malone, even the two people with good relationships may turn against each other for this honor, which is not impossible.

Under this speculation, Malone, who had done something very irrational and stupid, received many sympathy from many people, while Stockton, who cut off the pass for Malone on the court, became a "sincere villain". The development of things has almost exceeded everyone's expectations.

Although Malone's incident happened very suddenly and beyond the expectations of the Jazz, although the Jazz's emotions were affected at this time, it was impossible to focus all their energy on Malone's incident. After all, this Jazz's away trip was not a simple away trip. The three opponents, whether the Pacers, Hornets or Hawks, are all very strong teams. Needless to say, the Jazz have lost. Although the Hornets, this team is only eighth in the East,

It is because the aunt Larry Johnson of this team has been absent for a long time due to injury, and has always been led by Mourning and Boggs. And the aunt Johnson has now come back. In this case, the strength of the Hornets is incomparable to the past. After all, Mourning and Johnson can average 20+10 inside players, especially Mourning. This All-Star suddenly injured this season, the All-Star substitute was replaced by Oakley of the New York Knicks. After returning recently, the Hornets' leading player is in excellent condition.

Moreover, this super center who can average blocks more than 3 times per game in the season is also one of the few inside players Lin Han is very afraid of in the NBA. So, let alone the Jazz without Malone in this game. Even with Malone, this team is difficult to play.

Of course, because Malone was suspended in this game, facing the Hornets, who had finally had a good lineup, and also to fight for the Hornets, who fought desperately to the playoffs, the Jazz's victory was considered a bit small before the game.

So this game was also a very challenging game for Lin Han, but before the game started, it was not all bad things for Lin Han. For example, before the game, Lin Han saw Curry again, and Curry also came to the scene to cheer for his father Dell Curry.

Of course, according to Curry, who ran to Lin Han when Lin Han warmed up before the game, he would cheer for Lin Han in this game. It seems that Curry is already trying to "defect".

"Lin, I heard that your team is not very good recently. Are you okay now?"

During the warm-up before the game, as one of Lin Han's few players in the NBA who were friends, Dell Curry seemed to want to comfort Lin Han. This current Hornets player is also a former Jazz player. Dell Curry was a rookie selected by the Jazz in the first round in 1986, but the Jazz didn't have his place at that time, and left the team after playing as a substitute for a year.

However, this does not mean that Dell Curry is not familiar with this Jazz. You should know that when Dell Curry played for the Jazz, Stockton was still playing as a substitute like him. Malone was just the new boss who helped the team get on the position after trading singles King Dantley. She still knows a lot about these two Jazz's current leading players.

"Anyway, it's better not to interfere in the problem between Stockton and Malone. The relationship between these two is definitely not as simple as you think."

Although Lin Han said that his current situation was very good, Dell Curry finally emphasized to Lin Han again with a serious look on his face, and Lin Han nodded to Dell Curry's reminder.

In this game against the Hornets, the Jazz lost Malone, so the starting lineup of the Jazz in this game was center Polinis, power forward PJ Brown, forward Elliott, shooting guard Lin Han, and organizational defender Stockton. Because the starting lineup lacked an absolute offensive strong point, in order to maintain the offensive firepower of the starting lineup, Elliott was promoted to the starting lineup. Although Elliott's offense was very good, it was an outside player after all, and it was difficult to replace Malone's offensive firepower in the inside lineup. So in terms of this lineup, the Jazz's starting lineup is very fragile in terms of attack power.

If Lin Han was stared at by the Hornets, the Jazz would probably be difficult to score. With the Hornets' defensive strength, this team has the ability to limit Lin Han. After all, although Mo Ning's deterrence is a little worse than Olajuwon and Ewing, it is definitely not much different. If O'Neal hadn't been too outstanding, it would not be certain who the fourth center in the league was.

Although Hornets' head coach Alan Bristol is a 43-year-old NBA new coach, as long as he is not a fool, he can see what the problem with the Jazz is. So as soon as he starts this game, the Hornets' style of playing is very simple. Lin Han directly sent the team's shooting guard Hawkins to defend closely when he was out of the ball. Although Hawkins is not tall, this little brother of Barkley when he was 76ers was a complete one.

A star player can average 22 points per game and give away 2 steals per game. The highest steal data in his career was the 9 steals in a single game that the Celtics led by Larry Bird. In 1991, he was only 25 years old, and he scored a quasi-four double data with 38 points, 8 rebounds, 6 assists and 9 steals against the Celtics. At that time, Celtics defender Brian Xiao was almost killed by him in that game.

It can be said that although this All-Star guard is a flaw compared to Lin Han, he is very strong in other aspects, both strength, speed and stealing ability. If Lin Han cannot open the touch from the outside in this game and use his height to shoot him to death, it is actually very difficult to get rid of this guy, even if he really gets rid of this guy, the Hornets have arranged heavy troops for Lin Han in this game. When Lin Han was not in the ball, Hawkins held the ball tightly. After Lin Han held the ball, another player David Wingate would come up and attack directly. If Lin Han could still break through the siege and fight Mo Ning one-on-one, then the Hornets would also admit it. If Lin Han could really play such a game, it would be considered that Lin Han was powerful.

Because of the lack of Malone, the Hornets' behavior of focusing all their defensive energy on Lin Han made Lin Han's performance extremely restrictive at the beginning of the game.

In addition, Stockton is still like the last game in this game. Lin Han has no chance to attack with the ball and want to play brainless singles by himself. That is impossible. Under such circumstances, this is even worse for Lin Han.

Although Jerry Sloan and Stockton knew that such restrictions on Lin Han's performance were not so good, the two seemed to be determined. Even if Malone had a falling out with them, they had no intention of changing.

According to these two people, since neither Lin Han nor Ma Long can change his playing style independently, they can only forcibly help these two willful players to change.

Of course, I have to say that after the extremely team-playing style of the Jazz players in Stockton in the last game, the other Jazz players adapted quickly in this game and did not experience the at a loss again. Especially whenever Stockton's pass came, it was a real blessing for other Jazz players.

In this case, although Lin Han still lacks strong attacks in this game, the Jazz's offense is very layered and holistic. In addition, Lin Han attracted a lot of defensive energy from the Hornets, which has caused these Jazz players to be under extremely low defensive pressure. Therefore, as the game progressed, former Piston All-Star small forward Elliott, who has been struggling since he came to the team, really made a living in this game. After Stockton changed the way of passing the ball, this player with a very comprehensive offense was very motivated to play in this game like other Jazz players.

It is precisely because of this that although Lin Han played very hard in this game, other Jazz players played very well. In this game, Hornets coach Bristol, who thought that Lin Han could block the Jazz, was really confused at this time.

The young NBA coach did not adjust the team even after the half. It has to be said that the Hornets' head coach underestimated Stockton like many people before. The Jazz's main defender is indeed not strong in its own offensive ability, but he is definitely no longer a functional point guard who only knows pick-and-roll. Otherwise, those experts from outside who know the football masters would not think that Stockton can compete with Malone for the regular season MVP after completing his transformation this season.

With Stockton's selfless pass and organization, and the exciting performance of the Jazz's role players, in a very difficult game against the Jazz, the Jazz finally defeated the Hornets 99-91 away. In this game, Lin Han had only 19 shots in the game, 9 of 19 shots and scored 25 points. Although Lin Han's scored and shots were not many. However, other Jazz players played a rare overall performance. In this game, except for Lin Han's 25 points, Elliott scored 22 points. Even PJ Brown and Polynis had 12 points and 11 points respectively. In addition to Stockton's own 12 points, the Jazz's starting five players scored in double digits. This was simply incredible in the past.

Especially in the previous period, when Lin Han and Malone played against each other, the other Jazz players basically did not score in double digits. Lin Han and Malone took over more than 65% of the team's score. It was difficult for other players to touch the ball, even an All-Star player like Elliott had to defend for me.

Under such circumstances, it has to be said that although the Jazz have been winning and Lin Han and Malone have very beautiful data, the fighting spirit and enthusiasm of other Jazz players have been declining. Although some experts and experts in the United States are very annoying, these people are not all useless. Many of their views are very practical reference value, such as one of them is that when a player cannot touch the ball on the offensive end for a long time on the court, the player's enthusiasm on the defensive end will also decrease, which has nothing to do with whether the player has offensive ability.

Obviously, Stockton and Jerry Sloan have found that the team has won, and Lin Han and Malone are getting higher and higher numbers, the enthusiasm of other players is declining rapidly. This has forced them to make adjustments, even if Stockton needs to take the risk of falling out with Malone.

Of course. Although Lin Han didn't play very readily, Lin Han also accepted it. After all, the team won the game, which is more important than anything else.

However, although the Jazz can defeat the Hornets, the Hornets are just the eighth team in the East, and their coaching ability and players are much worse. The game against the Hawks on March 21 is not that simple.

The Hawks' head coach Wilkens is one of the most authoritative and powerful head coaches in the league. The head coach of the Dream Three team came to Lin Han before the Jazz and Hawks game began. Why did he come to Lin Han? It was naturally for the Olympics held in the United States in two years.

Although the formation of Dream Three is still more than a year away, almost everyone in the United States pays great attention to the Olympics held in Atlanta, the United States in two years. Dream Three is preparing for it very early. Some fans even called for Jordan to come back from Dream Three so that Jordan can have face, and those media that oppose Jordan can accept it. After all, playing for the country does not matter whether it is good or bad.

So although it was still early, how Wilkens would choose people has always attracted much attention. Of course, in addition to Jordan, there is another player Lin Han who has also received great attention. However, this is not just Lin Han's strength and popularity, but the relationship between Lin Han and many NBA superstars. It is said that Wilkens hopes that the three centers and Barkley or Pippen can appear on the list of Dream Three again, but the answers given by these people are very **, and it seems that the general meaning is that they need to look at Lin Han and Wilkens's choice. In fact, the meaning here is very clear. Lin Han is selected and they will not join unless Wilkens gives up Lin Han.

Of course, there is no basis for this kind of rumor. It is just because of the All-Star incident this year. Many people are very willing to believe this matter. After all, this kind of thing is not without a criminal record. This time, Wilkens greeted Lin Han before the game, naturally it would not be like inviting Lin Han to join the Dream Team 3. Wilkens simply said hello to Lin Han and expressed his appreciation for Lin Han, which is a good relationship with Lin Han.

Before the game, the Jazz and the Hawks were relatively friendly, but the two teams were the first in the West and the other was the first in the East. The last time the two teams met, the Hawks had just changed coaches, and the team was in unclear situation, so the team lost. This time, the Hawks naturally hoped to get back their face.

The New York Knicks were double-killed by the Rockets and Jazz this season, but the Hawks don't want their team to be double-killed, after all, their goal is also the championship, so it is very important to maintain a certain record in the regular season.

Besides, Malone has not played in this game, and the Jazz's situation is not very good. In this case, this is a very good opportunity for the Hawks. If the Hawks can't even grasp such an opportunity, then there is really nothing to say.

So after the start of this game, the Hawks almost showed the intensity of the playoffs at home. This made the Jazz, who had a very fierce game against the Hornets in the last game, struggled a little harder to play.

Of course, maybe it is because the Jazz's team's fighting spirit is really good now. Although Malone is not there, and Lin Han's power on the offensive end is also limited by Stockton, the team plays very resiliently. Although the Jazz have been behind from the beginning of this game, no matter how much the Hawks lead, the Jazz can finally catch up. This kind of game of chasing each other even made Hawks coach Wilkens, who had prepared very well for this game before the game, would never have imagined.

"I always thought Jerry Sloan was the only weakness of this Jazz. His ability could not control this team. Now it seems that I really underestimated Jerry Sloan."

When he saw that his team could not defeat the Jazz without Malone after giving his all. Wilkens on the sidelines was extremely surprised.

Although the Hawks, who were doing their best at the end of the game, defeated the Jazz 108-104, the Jazz played very well in terms of the content of this game. After the end of the game, the Hawks fans at the scene stood up and applauded the two teams.

However, like the last game, Lin Han's shots were not many in this game, and he scored 28 points from 11 of 21 shots. Of course, compared to Lin Han's usual 30 shots per game, 21 shots were not many, but compared to other NBA players, 21 shots were a lot of.

"Boss, are you okay?"

However, after the game ended, Lin Han looked at the Hawks fans standing up and applauding the Jazz, and he was a little dazed. He really didn't expect that the Jazz, who lacked Malone, could show such strong combat effectiveness when playing the Hawks away, and Lin Han was also a little dazed for a moment, not sure whether Malone was doing the right thing.

After the Jazz lost to the Hawks away, the Jazz ended a short away trip to the Eastern Conference and returned to Utah with a record of 1 win and 2 losses. After this away trip to the Eastern Conference, the Jazz's record also became 58 wins and 8 losses. Although it is still the first in the league, many people have already had questions about the team at this time.

For example, O'Neal, the head player of the Magic team, who has performed very well recently, is the super young center who is always eaten by Utah's double evil spirits. He said that the next game is March 23rd away game with the Jazz to lead the team to defeat the Jazz in order to avenge the last loss to the Jazz.

It seems that the Jazz is quickly losing their deterrence to other teams at this time. If they had used O'Neal's courage, this kid would not dare to provoke Malone, Stockton or the Jazz. Even if he was asked to provoke the other three centers, this flexibly fat man would not provoke Malone and Stockton. He really couldn't defeat these two [如] Masters of Sorry.

Of course, although the Jazz has been provoked by the Magic and O'Neal, Lin Han did not fight verbally with this "good partner" on the All-Star, because after returning to Salt Lake City, Lin Han, who has now saved up two purple and gold skill points, quickly chose to upgrade his Kobe-style turn-on and back jump shot to the LV3 level

Skill: Kobe-style turn and back jump shot (purple and gold a+ level skill)

Skill Level: lv3

Skill effect: LV3 Kobe-style turn and back jump shot with LV3-level picturesque action effect

In addition, if the host uses this skill to fail to hit the first ball, then the second time to use this skill will have an 80% chance to hit the second time, the second time to fail to hit the third time, and so on, until the probability of not hitting the last time is 0% chance to hit the second time is 80% chance to hit the second time, the probability of not hitting the third time is 75%, and so on

Skill Note: This skill ignores any intensity competition and ignores your physical fitness

When Lin Han upgraded this skill to lv3, Lin Han found that the cancer effect of this skill has almost broken through the sky. It is very likely that there will be seven or eight consecutive games in a game, and there may be seven or eight consecutive games in a game. Therefore, when Lin Han upgraded this skill, Lin Han really felt like his scalp was numb.

It can make him, the first "cancer" player in the league now recognized by the United States, numb on his scalp. You can also see the terrifying level of this skill.

Fortunately, what made Lin Han happy was that after Lin Han improved the Kobe-style turn and back jump shot to LV3, Kobe-style jumping and passing can finally learn.

"Ding, the host confirmed using the Kobe-style jumping pass skill card?"

"confirm"

"Ding, start matching, please wait"

"Ding. The host's height armband meets the requirements, the basic attributes meet the requirements, and at least one golden or more backward jump shot skill reaches lv3 meet the requirements"

"Ding. Congratulations to the host, the host can learn Kobe-like jumping pass skills"

After a burst of electronic sound passed, Lin Han soon found that the figure of the Lakers player he was very familiar with again appeared in his mind, and Lin Han also began to accept the inheritance of this player who was at least a quasi-goal king in Lin Han's opinion.

"Ding. The relationship host successfully accepted Kobe Bryant's inheritance and successfully learned Kobe's jumping pass skills"

When Lin Han accepted Kobe's inheritance and watched Kobe use this skill again and again in the game, Lin Han was a little puzzled.

"Is this Kobe jumping and passing?"
To be continued...
