Healing Basketball

Chapter 362 362. The Opportunity for a Top-Level Back-up (615 Supplement)

On December 2004, 12, Liu Xiu's family spent time lazily. Uncles, aunts, younger brothers and sisters all came to Liu Xiu's side.

Compared with the brand new big house, my uncle and aunt still prefer Liu Xiu's house.

On the one hand, I got used to living in it, and on the other hand, this house witnessed Liu Xiu's transition from needing the care of her uncle and aunt's family to being able to support her uncle's and aunt's family.

At that time, my aunt had just resigned to start a business, and my uncle, who had always admired his wife's talent, sold a house to support me. The family of three lived here together.

Anne-Hathaway's parents also came to Liu Xiu's home in the morning, seeing their daughter so fascinated, the parents could only recognize it, their son came out of the closet, and their daughter fell in love with a famous playboy...Freedom!We believe in freedom!

Today, Anne-Hathaway saw what it means to "drive an excavator for a ride". When she saw it, she felt a little ashamed, but after Liu Xiu warmly invited her to sit on it, she seemed to open the door to a new world. When it is opened, it seems to have the whole world...

The happy time always passes quickly. After nightfall, the uncle and aunt took their daughter and son back to the big house early so that the nephew can rest early, and there will be a Christmas battle tomorrow.

Anne Hathaway helped her mother-in-law put her son and daughter to sleep, and then returned to the upstairs room. She saw Liu Xiu...drawing on the balcony?
Taking a closer look, Anne Hathaway is messed up—skilled excavator skills + superb painting skills?What combination of hobbies is this?
For some reason, the picture of Liu Xiu driving an excavator and drawing came to her mind.

However, Liu Xiu's drawing skills seem to be really good, Anne-Hathaway praised: "Jess, I didn't expect you to be able to draw, and you can draw so well!"

"I didn't expect that I could be so versatile... But my drawing skills are so-so, so I can only deceive beautiful girls like you."

Liu Xiu looked at her +8 excavator skills, and her +5 watercolor painting skills, there was indeed a big gap.

He drives an excavator, and many years of excavator masters will praise him for being great, but the level of +5 in watercolor painting is the best among amateur players, and there is still a qualitative gap from the professional.

Ordinary people would definitely not compare painting skills with digging skills. Anne-Hathaway spat on Liu Xiu, only thinking that he was modest.

Seeing that Liu Xiu was still painting, Anne-Hathaway stopped talking after she praised her, and stood quietly to watch.

The painting is a terrace, and the sky is full of stars. It seems that the moon is almost full tonight, and there are no stars in the sky tonight... How is it familiar?

With Liu Xiu's outline stroke after stroke, the beautiful figure in the painting gradually became clear. Looking at Anne-Hathaway's eyes widened—isn't this her?
Take a closer look, isn't this the place they just met?
Although she is a mother, Anne Hathaway's girlish heart exploded at this moment!

When Liu Xiu turned her head, she saw Anne Hathaway's face was flushed under the moonlight, and her breathing gradually became short of breath.

When the moonlight shines on the beauty's face, the warden changes his appearance and turns into a wolf...

Before going upstairs, Anne-Hathaway made up her mind that she must go to bed tonight and not let Liu Xiu succeed tonight. There will be an important Christmas battle tomorrow, so she must set down the principles and not indulge in the eve of the game or the morning of the game.

But now she is more active than Liu Xiu, and she is always extraordinarily enthusiastic when she goes to applaud for love...

For a moment, she came up with a weird idea - can I write a book called "Ten Thousand Ways the Warden Can Make Me Undress"?

Christmas is here!
For basketball fans, today is the real Chinese New Year.

Today's 4 games, each of which is broadcast live, from 1:11 noon to 76:[-] pm, there are games to watch throughout the game, the Cavaliers play the Nuggets at home, the Pacers play the Nets at home, and the Trail Blazers play at home Playing the [-]ers, the Lakers playing the Heat at home, every game is full of highlights!
The same goes for the players. Liu Xiu was very excited today and arrived at the arena 8 minutes earlier than usual.

Liu Xiu was also very excited to see his teammates, every player who was put on the activation list tonight.

Varejao, the unlucky guy who is still injured, and Joan Barry with sore muscles can't play, and his face is full of loneliness and regret.

Liu Xiu didn't feel the legendary 'players don't like Christmas games' at all.

He thought about it, and in his impression there were players who said something like 'I want to spend Christmas with my family more', called O'Neal, Kobe, and James.

Among these people, there are no Chris Bosh and John Wall.

The excited teammates gave Liu Xiu the feeling that... a collective flashback?
Liu Xiu felt the enthusiasm of his teammates during the opening game.

Regardless of whether it is a flashback or not, as long as it is good for tonight's game, as for the middle of the season, let's talk about it in the middle of the season.

The Trail Blazers are in a state of intense preparations, and Liu Xiu is particularly focused. Not only is the Christmas game exciting for him in tonight's game, it also has something to do with the opponent-Iverson!

He and Iverson had a short matchup in the All-Star Game, and they also played against each other in the Olympics, but it was the first time in an official NBA game. Iverson was injured again and again last season. The Trail Blazers and the 76ers Iverson missed the match twice due to injury, and this day finally came.

Liu Xiu's expectation is also the expectation of many fans.

There are also countless people who want to watch the duel between Liu Xiu and Iverson!
In the past two days, in addition to promoting the Christmas game, the major media also made pre-season summaries, analysis, prospect assessment...etc.

In terms of rookies, except for the No. 03 pick Okafor's performance in line with people's expectations, and Ben Gordon, who was dubbed as a substitute Joe, the others are currently lackluster. There are Liu Xiu, James, and Anthony Zhuyu in the 04 class. feeling weak.

In terms of team record, as of the start of the Christmas game, each team played 26 to 28 games.

目前22胜5负的太阳队雄踞联盟第一，虽然追平96-97赛季公牛队的开局26胜4负没无望，但追平99-00赛季的湖人队和72-73赛季的凯尔特人队的25胜5负开局还是有希望的。

目前暂居西部季后赛行列的球队排名：太阳队22胜5负第一、20胜7负的马刺队排在第二、开拓者队18胜8负第三、小牛队19胜8负第四、超音速队18胜9负第五、国王队16胜10负第六、掘金队16胜11负第七、湖人队14胜12负第八。

The Rockets, Timberwolves, and Grizzlies are also competing for the playoffs, and their record is similar to that of the Lakers.

暂居东部季后赛行列的球队排名：19胜8负的篮网队第一、19胜9负的热火队第二、18胜9负的步行者队第三、17胜9负的活塞队第四、15胜12负的公牛队第五、14胜12负的76人队第六、14胜12负的奇才队第七、14胜13负的凯尔特人队第八。

The team record rankings allow fans to have a clearer understanding of each team's strength, position, and the current rational goals of their stars.

The player data ranking allows fans to clearly see the strength of the stars in a certain aspect.

Among them, the scoring list is undoubtedly the list of statistics that fans are most concerned about.

Currently, Iverson ranks first with 30.7 points per game, Kobe ranks second with 30.4 points per game, and Liu Xiu ranks third with 30.1 points per game!
Both are in the top three scoring list; this season, both of them have scored 60+ in a single game; Iverson is recognized as the strongest scorer in the league, Liu Xiu is the current scoring king in a single game, and the new generation of players faces Iverson The strongest scorer and the most threatening player.

The match between the two naturally attracted a lot of attention.

Moreover, compared to the other groups in the Christmas game, which have complicated comparisons, the comparison between Liu Xiu and Iverson is very simple, which is to score.

……

……

At noon lunch time, the Trail Blazers received news that the 76ers had arrived at the hotel in Portland.

The feeling of the imminent battle is coming!

The schedule of the 76ers is similar to that of back-to-back. They only arrive at the away game on the day of the game. In theory, the Trail Blazers have an advantage in preparing for the game, but the 76ers are very special. Whether they are fully prepared before the game makes little difference to Iverson. Everyone There is not much time to prepare for the game, which is beneficial to him, and the current 76ers team is equal to Iverson.

If Iverson played well, the 76ers would be fine, if Iverson played poorly, the 76ers would be finished.

On Liu Xiu's side, after lunch, he rested for a while. He was going to have some ironing first, then took a nap, and then went to pick up his family and enter the stadium. He couldn't bear to watch the Christmas match, not wanting to affect the rhythm of preparations... As a result, Peyton came to him and wanted to disrupt his rhythm, so he... agreed on the spot and followed Peyton to the training ground.

Liu Xiu said excitedly: "Gary, hurry up! Come on, treat me in the cruelest way, don't stop!"

Payton is satisfied with Liu Xiu's eagerness to learn. He is used to the two traits of studiousness and laziness concentrated in the same person. As far as Liu Xiu said, he always felt that something was weird.

Payton shook his head and replied: "There is a game tonight, I won't have much training, that guy is difficult to deal with, I just teach you some tips on back hitting."

"Oh, yes, I saw in the news that you played 14 times against Iverson and he averaged 29 points and 6 assists per game. It's okay, I will help you beat him... Hey, don't go, Mr. Gloves , I will stop talking, please teach me!"

Peyton was so angry that he supported the basket and pinched him. This warden who killed thousands of knives was so annoying!

And he's thick-skinned, apologizing as soon as he says he's sorry, it's not easy to get angry, really angry like his gloves are too stingy.

Peyton tried hard to imply that he was just a ruthless teaching machine, without any emotion.

After a while, Payton said: "I've been observing your post-up and found that your post-up has not improved much compared to last season. You have also noticed it? Do you know where the problem is?"

Just after Peyton finished speaking, Liu Xiu's task reminder came!
"...Mission: The opportunity to trigger the top back attack..."
