After the G5 swallowed a fiasco and the big score was 2-3, the Jazz returned to the home and will compete with the Lone Rangers for the first round of the series G6.
In terms of the Jazz, Mitchell + Bojan is not in good shape, and whether the Jazz can defend the home court and drag the series into the seventh game will undoubtedly face great challenges and tests.
On the other hand, on the lone ranger side, Doncic + Brunson is in the sky, whether the Lone Ranger team can win the G6 on the road has obviously become a major attraction of this game!
However, after four quarters of fighting, with a wave of 12-3 small climaxes, the Jazz, who played at home, in the first half, although they once overpowered the Lone Rangers, gained a 12-point lead.
But after returning from the second half, Doncic + Bullock + Dinwiddie felt hot in the third quarter, leading the Lone Rangers to constantly play counter-attacks, instantly reversing the situation on the field and surpassing the score.
And although in the final quarter of the showdown, Mitchell + Gobert played a series of exquisite cooperation to try to save the loss, but Brunson hit the key three points, Bojan missed the opportunity to kill, and the game also lost suspense.
The Lone Rangers, who finally withstood the pressure, also reversed the Jazz 98-96 on the road, strongly won the G6, and also eliminated the Jazz 4-2 in the series and officially advanced to the Western Conference Semifinals!
In this game away from home, although the Lone Rangers once fell into the disadvantage of 12 points behind in the score, fortunately, the team did not mess up with itself, but played a team performance of 4 people scoring in double figures, completing a big reversal.
In the case of the main forces such as Finney Smith + Dinwiddie, continuing to perform steadily, the play of the two aces Doncic + Brunson has played a crucial leading role!
Doncic was well-defended in this game, starting 41 minutes, shooting 4 three-pointers on 8-of-21 shooting, and blasting a game-high 24 points, plus 9 rebounds, 8 assists, 2 steals and 2 blocks.
Among them, in the third quarter, he suddenly shot a single quarter to cut 10 points of heroic performance, not only stepped forward, led the Lone Ranger team to fight back, but also once became a difficult existence for the Jazz team to solve!
Of course, the Lone Rangers were able to reverse the victory over the Jazz in this game, and the score was 4-2 to advance to the second round, and the performance of the team's core guard Brunson was also indispensable.
Brunson was very efficient, starting 36 minutes, shooting 2 three-pointers on 9 of 17 shooting, and contributing 24 points, 3 rebounds, 2 assists and 2 steals.
In addition, throughout the game, Brunson personally has not made a mistake, it can be said that with a very efficient personal performance, at both ends of the attack and defense, successfully affected the trend of the game!
More importantly, after eliminating the Jazz 4-2 in the first round of the playoffs and advancing to the Western Conference semifinals, the Lone Rangers not only won a series for the first time after the 2011 Finals, but also successfully met the Suns.
Considering the fiery state of Doncic + Brunson, it has to be said that with the current momentum of the Lone Rangers, it may be unknown who will die in the Western Semifinals with the Suns!
On the other hand, on the Jazz side, the team collapsed in the second half of this game, and finally was reversed, and the performance of the game in which the big score was eliminated 2-4 was obviously difficult for the home fans to accept.
After all, in the case of Mitchell + Gobert + Conley playing well, this campaign Bojan failed to withstand the pressure at a critical moment, and the performance of missing the opportunity to kill was indeed regrettable!
In the face of the all-staff lone rangers, as well as the huge gap in the strength and depth of the lineup, the Jazz generals who worked hard for a whole game but failed seemed to have no choice but to accept the reality of the first round of the playoffs.
As for whether this Jazz team can make some adjustments in this summer's offseason, and make a comeback next season, we seem to have to wait and see!
