Healing Basketball

Chapter 101 101. Old fans...how old?
Anyway, he studies psychology. Duncan is very good at judging micro-expressions. He immediately understood what he did wrong. He quickly bent his knees and lowered his gaze to the same height as Liu Xiu.

The corner of Liu Xiu's mouth twitched, and a series of # signs appeared on his forehead...

Before Duncan could speak, a question mark appeared on Liu Xiu's forehead due to Liu Xiu's changing expression: Why does this rookie seem to be even more unhappy?
"Believe it or not, I jumped up and hit your knee?" Liu Xiu's expression was fierce!
Duncan was taken aback—hit the knee?So vicious!

However, in the 'Rose Garden Prison Riot Incident' flashed in Duncan's mind Liu Xiuzhen's expression of squinting her eyes when she was angry, Liu Xiu's viciousness that could make a nightclub girl climax during a fight, and her contemptuous smile after the fight...

The psych master was sure the rookie wasn't really mad.

So, Duncan reached out and touched Liu Xiu's head...

"Hey! Despicable!"

Liu Xiu was so frightened that her mother tongue came out!Turn around and run away.

He was just joking, this facial paralysis actually released a weapon of mass destruction!
Duncan looked at Liu Xiu who was fleeing for his life, confused.

He just wanted to say hello to the younger generation!
……

At 8 o'clock in the evening, the game between the Trail Blazers and the Spurs started.

The Trail Blazers are not in good shape tonight, and their physical condition is still bad, but they did not give up, but went all out... What if the Spurs are not in good shape?
Opportunities are reserved for those who are prepared. Even if the probability of appearing is slim, you have to work hard. Only when the opportunity comes can you grasp it...

At 9:58, the first three quarters have been played, and the fourth quarter has just begun, but the Trail Blazers did not send core players.

Liu Xiu and Randolph sat safely on the bench. Their star players roared at Tianzun and left the court.

"Butcher, is Duncan dumb?"

"I suppose so. I've never heard him speak."

"That should be it. I greeted him before the game, but he didn't say anything."

Liu Xiu and Randolph strongly arranged Duncan.

What's the matter, can't you say bad things behind your back if you lose?
To be upset, to seize the opportunity... It also depends on who the opponent is.

Unlike other teams, after the Spurs have finished a season, as long as Duncan plays the game, there are only a handful of poor games.

Playing next to Duncan, even if the player at the end of the bench plays, he will be very confident.

Confidence is very important, whether it is because of yourself or others, with confidence, you can better display your strength.

Not surprisingly, the Trail Blazers, who played the third game in 4 days and were in the second back-to-back away game, were beaten by the Spurs.

14 to 21 in the first quarter, 23 to 20 in the second quarter, and it seemed that there was still a chance to struggle in the first half.

然后，第三节15比30……三节打完，开拓者队52比71落后马刺队19分。

By the way, the star of the Trail Blazers is not on the court now.

Before the end of the third quarter, Tianzun roared because of Duncan's dunk, and paid a technical foul for no defensive foul, resulting in the point difference being stretched to 16 points.

After a while, when the point difference was stretched to 20 points, Tianzun cut in to receive a pass from Liu Xiu and dunked Duncan. After regaining face, he couldn't help but screamed up to the sky...was called the second technical offender, Get kicked out...

As a result, the Trail Blazers entered the final quarter with a 19-point difference.

Maurice Cheeks throws in lineup of Jeff McGinnis, Matt Carroll, Wesley Person, Travis Outlaw, Spantinia, surrenders .

It was said that O'Neill rewarded the meat shield center with a meal. In this game, Liu Xiu felt that Duncan also rewarded the inside players with a meal.

The difference is that Duncan rewards his teammates.

On O'Neal's side, due to the limited offensive range, it does not help the power forward teammates much. There are few 3D power forwards these days.

But Duncan is different. Duncan has a wider attack range. Malik Rose, a power forward who is not outstanding in all aspects, can perform well next to Duncan. He even got a starting salary of 492 million US dollars after winning the championship last season. A total of 6 million U.S. dollars in six years, a full middle-class fat contract.

During the game, Liu Xiu already felt that playing against the Spurs was very torturous, but when watching the game... it was even more torturous!

After complaining about Duncan with Randolph behind his back, Liu Xiuzhen didn't watch the game on the court.

He took a look at Duncan's bankrupt talent copied today.

"The great magician:
game status.

Copy objects:

Teammate: Zach Randolph...

Opponent: Tim Duncan, trait conversion talent: Stone Buddha (incomplete), bonus effect: 1. Absolute stability: the host can always maintain a stable performance in the game; 2. Absolute calmness: the host can always keep calm in the game . "

Absolutely calm...Liu Xiu thought of Duncan who was yelled at twice by Tianzun, who has always been expressionless...

Finally, at 10:21 p.m., the final whistle blew.

The Trail Blazers lost 74 to 90 on the road, ending their three-game winning streak, and their record became 11 wins and 6 losses.

Liu Xiu received a system prompt at the moment the game ended.

A strange 250 healing value reward... Lost for the second time in his career.

If you lose the game and play more than 15 minutes, you will get 50% of the base reward, which is 250 healing value.

刘秀今晚打了19分钟，10投4中，其中三分球4中1，外加2中2的罚球，拿到11分6板2助攻2抢断。

看着大屏幕上那个今晚打了31分钟拿到20分9板4助攻1抢断4盖帽的面瘫，刘秀立了个小目标——‘下次交手一定要这家伙有表情变化！’

……

……

The Trail Blazers returned to Portland the morning after the Spurs.

4 consecutive away, 3 wins and 1 loss, quite a good record, this time there are more fans picking up the plane than last time.

However, most people did not come to pick up the game because of this record. Their Trail Blazers have all reached the playoffs in the past 21 seasons. Although they have not won the championship, they have had more brilliant times.

It's for Liu Xiu!

52 points in a single game!
In Memphis, the fans booed; in Houston and San Antonio, the fans were just curious about the Trail Blazers rookie.

But in Portland, the impact is completely different!

……

"Warden, there are many old fans who say that they will not watch the Trail Blazers game again, and they want to keep the memory of the Trail Blazers in the last time they reached the finals. What do you think of this situation?"

It has been a few days since Liu Xiu scored 52 points, and many things can happen in a few days.

For example, the countless local fans in Portland have played against each other.

For example, basketball fans in street courts and professional basketball halls face each other.

It's hard to say about the fist movement, but in terms of spraying, the prisoners who had been at a disadvantage before now have the absolute upper hand!

The fans of the purge faction couldn't fight and quarreled, so they just said, 'I don't watch the Trail Blazers game anymore, this is not the Trail Blazers team that year'.

There were a lot of people who agreed, and it caused a wave of public opinion in Portland. At first, even the management of the Trail Blazers panicked.

Although the boss doesn't care about profits and losses, the tickets are selling well!

It is possible to pay back every year, but at least the tickets are sold well, which makes the boss look good.

In case those old fans don't come to watch the game, the ticket sales will be affected... But the development of the matter surprised the Blazers management...

The Blazers management is worried about this, and the local media is naturally hyping it up.

Portland and even Oregon are rumored that the Trail Blazers' ticket sales are about to collapse, and the ball market is about to collapse...

Oregon TV requested an interview the first time the Blazers returned to Portland.

After Liu Xiu communicated with the press officer, at three o'clock in the afternoon, he accepted an exclusive interview with Oregon State TV at the Rose Garden Arena.

The reporter's first question was very sharp.

Views, treatment, this question, the current situation of public opinion, Liu Xiu knows that if he answers it carelessly, it will definitely cause another storm of public opinion.

Liu Xiu thought about it cautiously, and replied, "Old fans, how old are you?"

"???"

Question marks all over the reporter's head.

"When I first got home in the morning, I saw a 10-year-old boy on the news saying that he would never watch our games again... The money spent by minors is the parents' money? Deciding whether they will watch our games or not It’s not them, it’s their parents, and they have to wait until they grow up and start earning their own money.”

"???"

Reporter: Who am I?Where am I?Did I come here to hear the truth?

……

Liu Xiu easily dealt with the reporter's difficulties.

Not to mention his personal thoughts, he didn't take this matter to heart as far as the follow-up development after the public opinion "I don't watch the Trail Blazers game anymore" that he learned from the press officer appeared.

In the past few days, Portland and Oregon have been hyping this matter, and then, in just a few days, the Trail Blazers sold more than 2000 season tickets.

Each time the hype gets stronger, the next few hours are peak sales for single-game or season tickets.

This made Trail Blazers general manager John Nash want to go to the media to hype it up.

Therefore, the Trail Blazers management has no intention of 'refuting the rumors' at all.

……

……

After the Trail Blazers returned from 4 consecutive trips, they got two days of rest.

Another night passed, and on December 12, the Trail Blazers began to prepare for the next game.

Tomorrow's opponent is not strong. The Bulls, the second-to-last team in the Eastern Conference, only had two training sessions this morning, one offense and one defense, and the training ended at 10:[-].

There will be a game tomorrow. Generally speaking, a large number of Trail Blazers players will choose to practice extra.

But this time, only less than a handful of players stayed for extra training.

The competition is too dense!

After this wave of consecutive away games in 6 days and 4 games, everyone was exhausted.

Liu Xiu didn't even have the patience to watch the Bulls' scouting reports and video clips after the team's training.

It is not because the Bulls are weak that he will not underestimate any opponent. In any game, he will want to do his best.

but pure boredom...

When watching the game as a fan, he knew that the schedule was very intensive. Only after he really became a professional player did he know what kind of emotional changes such a dense schedule would bring to the players.

He doesn't have to worry about physical consumption, the simulated training can maximize the recovery of his physical consumption.

But mental fatigue is getting worse day by day.

Fortunately, he doesn't have to think about maintaining his state, training, etc. When he feels tired, he just... just watches the training of his teammates, how interesting it is!
No, Randolph is practicing the extension technique of low post singles - turnaround jumper.

Randolph's turnaround jump shot has been well practiced. Although the training movement is not fast and the details are not well controlled, but the fluency is very high. The most important thing is that the shooting force can be controlled, that is, effective training The rate is very good.

Worthy of being a genius!
Randolph's low-post post-up singles already have a first-class level. As long as the expansion technology is in the right direction and the details are well controlled, it will definitely expand quickly.

In just a few days, Randolph has already reached the level of when Liu Xiu showed off the low-post turnaround jumper that day, and it may be even stronger, which is definitely not something that ordinary geniuses can do.

Physical strength, patience and hard work when you want to learn something, talent, and toughness. Randolph can go from averaging 5 minutes per game in his rookie season to becoming a close to a first-class power forward. These characteristics are the key.

After Randolph practiced two sets with a total of 20 shots, he saw Liu Xiu who was watching, and said proudly: "Warden, my low turnaround jump shot is no longer inferior to you!"

Liu Xiu nodded, moved her body, came to the low position, and called the trainer to make basic defensive moves... No nonsense, let's start showing!
After Randolph said proudly just now, he regretted a little...

Now... don't think about it now.

Randolph looked at Liu Xiu's low-post turnaround jumper and cursed directly!

Liu Xiu's back-and-back jumper is quick and smooth... and handsome!

Let's not mention the handsome one first, Randolph is sad!

Damn Chris Owen!Actually changed the original so handsome turning jumper into a tumbler bouncing and spinning!

In terms of fluency, Randolph does not lose to Liu Xiu.

It's a matter of talent + suitability, and Randolph has both.

Liu Xiuneng simulated training overnight to reach the level of smooth movements, and Randolph also reached the level after spending a few days adding an hour or two a day.

But what about this speed?
"Speed" doesn't just refer to fast movements, fluency and rhythm must be maintained, and it is also necessary to take into account the strength of the shot...Technology has never been about practicing a single movement. It needs to be considered from the initiation to the Complete each ring of shooting.

It took him more than half a month to practice low-post turnaround shots before he reached a level that could be used routinely.

The low-post turnaround jumper is much more difficult than the low-post turnaround shot. Randolph's goal is to practice the turnaround jumper of the low post turnaround jumper to both fluency and speed before the arrival of 2004. Tool.

Yes, he can practice back-up for two hours in the morning and continue to play for 40 minutes in the evening.

Given himself a month, Randolph already felt that the time was a bit tight.

But now, this thing in front of me...

A few days ago, this guy was on the same level as he is now!
Now this guy is at the level he expected him to be in a month!
