Healing Basketball

Chapter 453 453. Role Swap
While the referee was watching the replay, Maurice Cheeks hurried to call the team doctor.

The Trail Blazers played the Suns, and the two clubs played against each other. Of course Thomas Carter got the spot.

The on-site diagnosis by the team doctor was just inquiry + observation. Thomas Carter was nothing special. After the inspection, he gave permission to continue playing.

Liu Xiu himself knew that nothing was wrong. He didn't receive the system's injury notification, not even a minor injury notification, that is, he was just hurt by bumps and falls.

The referee finally confirmed that the last touch of the ball was the bully's hand.

The fans booed violently.

The applause in front is respect, and the booing now is their duty as Suns fans.

There is nothing to question the ownership of the ball. The director on the big screen did not show the picture of Liu Xiu’s blood cap bully, but he also played the short scene after the ball was capped repeatedly as the referee viewed it from multiple angles. The playback is very clear. , Liu Xiu hit the ball with an upward palm and never touched the ball again. The ball flew out from the hands of the bully.

The referee blew the whistle for the out-of-bounds ball again to confirm the Blazers' backcourt ball.

The Suns players quickly returned to the backcourt to prepare for defense.

TV commentators are teasing how good the Suns' defensive enthusiasm is.

This season, some people have been saying that the Suns have poor defense, but no one has said that their defensive enthusiasm is not good.

Because the defensive enthusiasm of the Suns is really good, the one with the worst defense is the strongest.

Nash now really feels the pressure from the Trail Blazers and Liu Xiu.

The kick-off was blocked by Liu Xiu all by himself, but the momentum of the Blazers' start continued, and their morale became even higher!
As a leader, Nash has the responsibility to lead the team to reverse the situation.

There is still a chance to regain momentum, and now they look up to Angelica to lead 9-8.

But now, Nash feels more pressure is coming-the person who receives and advances the Blazers has changed from the warden to the little flying mouse!
When the ball was dead, the Trail Blazers made a substitution, Liu Xiu moved to shooting guard, Xiao Feishu played, and the frontcourt trio remained unchanged.

After the little flying mouse advanced to the frontcourt, Nash bravely pressed towards the opponent again. The little flying mouse slapped the ball hard, and the ball passed between Nash's legs... the little flying mouse's crotch pierced people!
Marion received a one-step position outside the reasonable collision zone to prevent the flying mouse from continuing to enter the basket. The flying mouse did not pass to Randolph who was in the middle distance from the baseline. Randolph did not stand stupidly waiting for the ball to catch and shoot, and rushed in very tacitly. Inside, Flying Mouse made a long-distance toss shot one step inside the free throw line... The ball spun forward, and the hit on the front of the basket was hit!

10 to 9, the Trail Blazers regained a 1-point lead!

Randolph snatched it in vain, but he was not angry. Instead, he ran around the three-second zone with a smile on his face and gave the flying squirrel a high-five to celebrate.

The offense and defense switched, Nash received the serve and advanced, this time he did not force a fast break.

Liu Xiu has already retreated, the outlaws are closing in quickly, and Kwame Brown is also struggling to retreat... The main reason is that the Suns themselves have to rest and counterattack every round, which is impossible.

The Suns' "7-second offensive theory" is not about a few blind rushes.

On the offensive end, the Suns are definitely the smartest team this season, none of them!

The "slow-paced advancement" of the Suns this time is actually not slow, it is a little faster than the Trail Blazers' advancement, and the deceleration for a few seconds has given the Suns players relief from the physical exertion of the hard-working contraction attack just now. After entering the positional battle, Nash launched a positional battle fast attack again!

Joe Johnson caught the ball from the baseline and made a long two-pointer!
11 to 10, the Suns went ahead by 1 point and continued to entangle with the Trail Blazers.

The performance of the Suns players was not affected by the Trail Blazers' "anti-customer-oriented" start, and their performance remained stable.

The two teams entered an anxious stage of confrontation, and at this time neither side dared to relax in the slightest.

At this time, relatively speaking, the Suns at home are more favorable.

The Trail Blazers were the first to launch an impact, playing a momentum of anti-customer.

The one of Liu Xiu's blood cap bully raised the momentum of the Trail Blazers to a peak. If the Suns can complete the pressure at this time, it will definitely be a huge blow to the morale of the Trail Blazers.

Moreover, the Suns don't even have to take the lead, they just need to bite the score.

Of course, it would be better if the score could be overtaken!

When the score hit the Suns 16 to 17 behind the Trail Blazers by 1 point, the opportunity came!

Big Q catches the ball from the wing and faces Little Momonga, and takes a three-pointer against Little Momonga's defense... The chance is good, but it's hard!
Liu Xiu has been fighting against the big Q, and the effect is finally reflected!

At 6 minutes and 02 seconds of the first quarter, the extrajudicial fanatics protected the defensive rebound!

Morris Cheeks didn't call a timeout, and Liu Xiu didn't hesitate to push forward after receiving the ball. After reaching the frontcourt, he gave the ball to Randolph in the low post. Take a break.

Randolph relied on hitting Marion, and Marion lowered his center of gravity and tried to resist, but Randolph didn't dig in, he passed!

Point the ball in the middle!

Liu Xiu used Kwame Brown's top arc to cover the center and cut in, received the ball at the free throw line, took three big steps directly, stepped out with his left foot in the second step, and stepped heavily on the floor to take off with all his strength...

Little Overlord did not follow Kwame Brown to pull out. His defensive perception, Kwame Brown's failure to shoot means that he is useless and threatening outside... When Liu Xiu rushed in, Little Overlord faced the same situation as Liu Xiu at the beginning of the game. s Choice.

The little bully didn't give in either, he moved towards Liu Xiu and sealed it... "Kuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu"... This time the one who flew out turned into the little bullying king!
Moreover, Xiaobawang failed to catch Liu Xiu, so he slapped him in vain!
Although Xiaobawang's average of 1.6 blocks per game is much higher than that of the warden's average of 0.6 blocks per game, but in terms of the sense of blocking, Xiaobawang's flattery is not as good as the warden's.

Bully blocks 36 shots per 1.6 minutes, which is an embarrassing level among the inside players with such strong physical fitness. He is also a high school insider, and Howard blocks 32 shots per 1.7 minutes. 28 blocks per minute, both of them are just rookies.

Liu Xiu dunks the bully and smashes the ball into the basket!
The Suns called a timeout!

...

D'Antoni was expecting to overtake the score and stop the opponent, but he was stopped by the opponent!
D'Antoni is a speculator. His coaching style can be said to be a gambling style. In the past two rounds, his team had the opportunity to overtake the score and stop the opponent. Naturally, there is a possibility of being hit by the opponent. So now he is not bothered.

It's just that D'Antoni's head got dizzy watching the warden who once again detonated the boos on the scene and celebrated with his teammates after entering a timeout!

How dare you rush in and directly buckle it!
This goal boosted the morale of the Trail Blazers, even worse than the one-on-two dunk at the beginning.

It can also be said that there was a 'sneak attack' element in it.

This time, Liu Xiu rushed into the inside line with the obvious intention of a dunk, and Xiaobawang had enough space and time to stop him, but he was hit by a dunk!

At this time, the fact that the initiative is in the hands of the opponent turned out to be a good thing!
The Trail Blazers, who were originally 'anti-customer-oriented', took the initiative. In D'Antoni's view, there was no difference between 1 point behind and 3 points behind. It was just a missed opportunity. Opportunities, there are many.

What really makes D'Antoni feel the pressure-the number of three-point shots!
After half a quarter of the game, they only took two shots, and they were the ones that didn't get rid of the defense--Nash's three-pointer after the pick-and-roll, and the big Q's step-back three-pointer when the little flying mouse changed defense.

No other three-point shots!

The Trail Blazers would rather give the Suns a chance to cut in and mid-range shots, and try their best to reduce the number of three-point shots the Suns make!

Not to mention, D'Antoni thinks the Trail Blazers' move is very powerful, especially when Liu Xiu, Little Flying Squirrel, and the outlaws are on the court at the same time, it is basically impossible to miss the three-point defense. Inch, and the three of them defend three-pointers, mainly defending against the ball...

During the official timeout, D'Antoni did not make adjustments to increase the chances of three-pointers, but strengthened the attack in the middle and short distances according to the opponent's defensive strategy.

Head-to-head is the stupidest choice for an offensive team.

In D'Antoni's eyes, there is always a chance!

For example, Randolph has to rest next!Although Randolph has good physical strength, he has to be the main offensive point, defend against Marion, and run back and forth.

He can't wait for Randolph to continue playing, even if he is being suppressed by the Trail Blazers ahead!
Randolph put on his training uniform and sat on the bench, but D'Antoni felt a little regretful.

However, at the end of the timeout, D'Antoni, who was "getting cheap and being good," cursed the street.

Looking at Raheem, who came off the bench, he remembered that the opponent still has a top-notch striker!
