Healing Basketball

Chapter 147. Tian Ji Horse Racing, This Is Advanced Confidence

7 to 14, Yao Ming missed another free throw.

The Trail Blazers showed a rhythm of collapse.

Fortunately, Maurice Cheeks is used to strong winds and waves, so he adjusted calmly.

The combination of Liu Xiu, Ruben Patterson, Travis Outlaw, Dale Davis, and Rasheed Wallace played.

Today, the president of the NBA came to the Rose Garden Arena to watch the game in a private room.

Stern looked at the Blazers' adjustments and complained weakly-as expected, he was indecisive and defensive again!

But watching Liu Xiu play, he was very happy.

In the 03 class, Liu Xiu, Anthony, James, the three-legged confrontation...

Liu Xiu is a bad boy from outside, and Anthony is a bad boy from home. The two bad boys are doing evil in the basketball world. The script of James' hero saving the world?

Loved it!

On the court, the Trail Blazers made adjustments to their lineup and style of play, but to little effect.

After Yao Ming made an additional free throw to open the point difference to 8 points, the Trail Blazers failed to complete the counterattack in the second half of the first quarter.

姚明首节打了9分钟，4投3中，外加3中2的罚球，拿到9分3板1助攻2盖帽，摧毁了开拓者队攻防两端的既定战术。

When Yao Ming was replaced for a rest, the Trail Blazers also failed to narrow the point difference.

After the first quarter, the Trail Blazers trailed the Rockets by 16 points 27 to 11!
Tianzun made 7 of 3 shots and scored 6 points, Liu Xiu made 2 of 2 free throws, Little Flying Mouse made 4 of 1 three-pointers, Randolph made 4 of 3 free throws, and the extrajudicial madman scored a counter-attack dunk. The Blazers had nothing else in the first quarter Score.

The Mark Jackson copied by Liu Xiu this time has a post-up talent, bonus effects, post-up strength +1, post-up pass accuracy +3.

It is far worse than Andre Miller. After all, Mark Jackson is about to be 39 years old and is going to retire soon, but it is better than the bounce +25 randomly obtained by the incomplete version of the "all-around player" who copied Francis' 1% match last time. too much.

The second highest scorer of the two teams so far is Francis, with 8 points, 3 rebounds and 2 assists in a single quarter.

When the whistle sounded at the end of the first quarter, Francis yelled at Liu Xiu: "Rookie, this is the performance of an All-Star!"

Francis would like to say one more thing - Chinese fans, don't you love me?
Obviously I came first!
"I know I know, but I just got votes higher than you."

After Liu Xiu finished speaking, she turned and returned to the bench.

Successfully cured Francis, 88 healing points arrived.

After the start of the game tonight, Francis has already given Da Da hundreds of healing points, and he started to have the warden before he played.

With his birth, it cannot be said that not everyone is as happy as Yao Ming... To be precise, there are not a few top players who are happy.

In this situation, Liu Xiu... couldn't be happier.

In Liu Xiu's eyes, Francis is a big experience baby!
He even began to imagine what kind of enjoyment it would be to fight against the little blacksmith...

Putting his good vision aside, after returning to the bench, his head turned quickly, his thoughts gradually straightened out, and he ran to find the coaching staff to communicate.

The thinking of the coach and the chief assistant coach is similar to that of Liu Xiu. Morris Cheeks made adjustments with reference to the ideas of his best colleagues and players with the best brains.

When the players gathered around to discuss the details, Kevin Pritchar excitedly said to the coach: "This kid doesn't think about those immature suggestions all day long, he has serious ideas!"

Maurice Cheeks felt bad for his friend.

Shouldn't it be the most basic thing for a ball-quotient point guard to have normal tactical thinking?

the other side.

Looking at the 00 Tanhua Show with 'I will never work hard' written all over her face, Liu Xiu said: "The more rebellious you are, the more you want to make trouble in this way, the more blocked the road ahead of you will be. It’s not that we can’t do without you, outlaws are much more talented than you, and they are more competitive and work harder than you.”

Mare Facco!

Although extrajudicial lunatics are not afraid of competing with parallel importers, they are not afraid of being hated by them.

But this day, the sky is full of hatred, and the warden has gone too far!
In this life, don't you want to hear me call you boss!

As the saying goes, one word awakens the dreamer.

Miles looked at his teammates, as if no one really cared about his appearance...

He found that what he thought the Trail Blazers traded him back with the starting point guard was very important to him.

Until just now, he still had this idea.

For more than half a month, he only played in garbage time. He was very upset, but his idea was very strange-the team wanted him to familiarize himself with the team's tactics first, but he felt ashamed, and he didn't like playing in garbage time. Hit well.

Even if he plays in regular time now, he doesn't think about playing well, he just thinks about going up and paddling, which will make the Trail Blazers regret it!

But after this weird idea was broken + ridiculed by Liu Xiu, Myers suddenly saw the reality clearly and panicked.

The referee signaled that the intermission was over, and Miles, who was in a state of confusion, went on the court with several teammates.

Originally, he just wanted to go up and paddle casually, but now he feels that he has to fight hard!
How to fight?
correct!

Quick pinch and unlimited defense changes!
This, he is familiar with KG!

……

The Trail Blazers sent a combination of Flying Squirrel, Liu Xiu, Travis Outlaw, Darius Myers, and Tianzun.

The Rockets sent a combination of Francis, Mobley, Piakowski, Maurice Taylor, and Cato.

At the beginning of the second quarter, the Rockets took the lead.

Francis receives the serve and advances.

Mobley directed his teammates to open up the space.

As an all-round shooting guard, Mobley is the player who sacrificed the most for the Rockets. In order to make room for teammates such as Yao Ming, Francis, Jim Jackson, Mark Jackson, etc., he abruptly turned himself into a receiver this season. The shooting-based style of play has averaged 2.2 three-pointers per game so far this season, double that of last season, and the 40.6% three-point shooting rate has also increased by more than 5 percentage points compared to last season.

With Mobley like this, Van Gundy Jr. coached very comfortably this season.

A big center who can shoot, a point guard who can score sharply, a shooting guard who runs and catches the ball, a power forward with strong rushing ability, an all-around single player...

Little Van Gundy really wanted to shout-give me a better substitute and I can reach the finals!The total salary should not be 8000 million, [-] million, [-]... No!Six thousand and five can be...

He still can't yell...

on the field.

Francis came to the frontcourt, faced Liu Xiu's defense, and rushed!

Liu Xiu can limit Francis' breakthrough by relying on strength, but it is impossible to lock it.

Travis Outlaw's defense was in place and Francis scored the ball.

The ball came to Piakowski on the wing, and the flying squirrel made it in place. Piakowski lifted the ball up and did not dare to put it down to make a jump shot. Mobley came to the receiving point in time, and Piakowski Ski hurries the pass... Miles cuts off the pass and slaps the ball away!

Little Momonga grabbed the ball nimbly and turned Miles' cut into a steal.

Mobley reacted sharply. He fouled the little flying mouse. The referee determined that it was a regular foul. When Mobley fouled, there were Rockets players who were closer to the Rockets basket than the little flying mouse.

The Rockets' sense of rhythm, as an opponent, the Trail Blazers admire the Rockets' ability in this regard.

Van Gundy has continued the defensive discipline of the former coach Tomjanovich very well, and labeled it as iron and blood.

But who would have imagined that the alliance will soon make a ruthless attack on the iron-blooded style...

But what surprised the Trail Blazers players even more was Miles!

This little KG's supplementary defense is really interesting.

When the Trail Blazers attacked, there was no Yao Ming inside, and Liu Xiu played Francis in the low post.

Francis lowered his center of gravity to prevent being crushed and beaten. He weighed 88 kg, which is not bad, and the opposite side was 95 kg.

Liu Xiu turned over and made a jumper!

Francis was in a bit of envy and hatred at this moment. The last time he played against the Trail Blazers, Liu Xiu hadn't done it yet, and it had only been 40 days!

This offense and defense fully demonstrated the Trail Blazers' tactical strategy at the beginning of the second quarter.

On the defensive end, try the effect of high-speed rotation defense, so Travis Outlaw, Miles, and Tianzun's frontcourt combination were sent.

I didn't expect Miles to take it seriously and the defense effect is very good!
In the first defense, there was a saying that the opponent was not prepared, but later, Miles proved with practical actions that he really felt like a "little KG" when he defended and assisted.

Of course, compared with KG, it must be far behind. KG's supplementary defense and auxiliary defense are at the historical level.

With Liu Xiu topping Francis on the outside, Little Flying Squirrel quickly switching defenses and rushing, Tianzun at the basket, and outlaws on the front line, there is an extra Miles who is not bad in assisting defense...

To deal with the Rockets without Yao Ming, it's all right!

In the future, many young fans will not know that Yao Ming is already the Rockets' scoring leader and the most efficient player in his second year.

On the offensive end of the Trail Blazers, when Liu Xiu was the main attacker, he focused on the low post, supplemented by the offense of the series team, and the Flying Squirrel was the main attacker.

It's time to turn around, Little Flying Squirrel scored a two-pointer with a step-back for the second time in singles, and then started to flirt.

The adjustment of the Trail Blazers in the first half of the second quarter was very effective. At 6 minutes and 33 seconds of the second quarter, they scored a half quarter score of 14 to 9!
The Rockets called a timeout to enter an official timeout.

During the live broadcast of the court TV, Director Zhang commented on the reason why the Rockets were chasing points in this half of the quarter: "Francis entered the NBA at the age of 22, and will be 27 next month. It has been more than 4 years, and he has basically made no progress. He is very versatile, but there is no one. Particularly prominent strengths..."

This time, what Director Zhang analyzed was highly consistent with what the Trail Blazers coaching staff and Liu Xiu wanted to use!
Francis is a very good point guard, and his overall strength is on the verge of an All-Star.

But it's hard to say which aspect of Francis is particularly good. When the team doesn't have a real absolute strength, his statistics are pretty good, but leading the team...

Fortunately, the Rockets had a big lead after the first quarter, and they still lead the Trail Blazers by 36 points 30-6.

Back from the timeout, Van Gundy replaced Yao Ming, Mark Jackson, Mobley, Jim Jackson, and Maurice Taylor.

The Trail Blazers replaced Liu Xiu, Ruben Patterson, Miles, Randolph, and Dale Davis.

This time, Van Gundy did a good job of using Yao Ming, mainly because he had a very large lead in the first quarter and did not replace Yao Ming in advance in the second quarter.

In the second half of the second quarter, Yao Ming led the team to stabilize the situation and played an advantage, limiting the Trail Blazers to only 9 points in the second half of the quarter, while the Rockets scored 12 points.

On the whole, the Rockets only lost to the Trail Blazers by two points 21 to 23 in the second quarter. After halftime, the Rockets led the Trail Blazers 48 to 39 by 9 points and entered the intermission!
The Rockets reopened the point difference!Their players were beaming.

But the Trail Blazers are not discouraged.

They achieved their tactical goal and narrowed the point difference to less than 10 points.

It's just that when the point difference was the smallest, it was reduced to 6 points, and then it was pulled back by 3 points, which is still a bit regrettable.

刘秀从首节后半段上场打到了第二节9分33秒被换下，15分多钟，拿到了7分3板1助攻1抢断，表现不错。

However, Yao Ming also played 15 minutes in the half, and his performance was much stronger. His performance of 16 points, 6 rebounds, 2 assists and 3 blocks was simply cruel!
His state in this game can catch up with the Christmas game and the game where O'Neal just suppressed O'Neal.

Yao Ming's runaway state tonight made the Trail Blazers' coaching staff more determined to implement the strategy discussed with Liu Xiu-Tian Ji's horse racing!
……

Tian Ji's horse racing is not because he is afraid of his opponent, but because he has clear confidence in himself, knowing that he has the strength of most lineups and is definitely stronger than his opponent.

Miles' performance really surprised his teammates and coaches, and of course made the Trail Blazers' strategy execution more in place.

In the first half of the third quarter, a very important half, the Trail Blazers sent a combination of Flying Squirrel, Liu Xiu, Ruben Patterson, Randolph, and Tianzun to face the Rockets led by Yao Ming.

With the return of blood in the second quarter, the performance of the Trail Blazers players gradually recovered.

Halfway through the third quarter, Liu Xiu hit a three-pointer from the bottom corner, and the Trail Blazers scored 14-12.

The Rockets called a timeout!

第三节6分09秒，火箭队以60比53领先开拓者队7分进入官方暂停。

姚明这半节时间拿到了4分2板1盖帽1助攻的数据，打了21分钟，已经拿到20分8板3助攻4盖帽了。

Based on his average playing time of 30.5 minutes per game so far this season, he will have to play the last 8 to 10 minutes after the wave at the beginning of the final quarter.

With such playing time, as long as his teammates perform qualified, he can basically play his best throughout the whole process.

It was going well, but Liu Xiu made a decisive three-pointer from the bottom corner and scored... Yao Ming felt that something was going to happen.

This is not the first time this kind of thing has happened...

Yao Ming's bad premonition came true!

In the second half of the third quarter, the Trail Blazers used the combination of Little Flying Squirrel, Liu Xiu, Outlaw Madman, Miles, and Tianzun to prevent the Rockets from scoring only 6 points in half a quarter, while the Trail Blazers scored 12 points. point!
Relying on the score of 26 to 18 in the third quarter, after three quarters, the Trail Blazers chased the score to 65 to 66, only 1 point behind entering the final quarter!
Yao Ming strongly urged Van Gundy to replace him when the score was reduced to 4 points.

But Van Gundy didn't agree.

When Tianzun hit a three-pointer from the top arc and narrowed the point difference to 1 point, Yao Ming's words of "tomato" were heard by the bench on the opposite side...

Yao Ming is aggrieved!
他打21分钟，11投7中，罚球7中6，拿到20+8+3+4的数据，居然休息个半节球队就快崩了！
