Healing Basketball

Chapter 610. 610. The Surging Power of the West Coast
Accepting that the winning streak is ended is actually a strong mentality.

The fans can also see that they have tried their best in the first half.

刘秀首节5投2中，外加4中4的罚球拿到8分，第二节7投4中，其中三分球3中1，外加4中3的罚球拿到12分，半场20分3板4助攻2抢断……典狱长都已经打到这份上了，还是落后，而对方在第二节很明显愈发的游刃有余。

They have good reason to accept reality.

However, it is more important not to give up easily!
At the beginning, they were only 30 points behind with more than 8 seconds left, and their wardens could come back.

It's only half time!

Although Kwame Brown is missing, the interior defense has plummeted, but they have a warden!
The expectations of the fans and teammates were conveyed to Liu Xiu. He was very excited, but he still tried to calm himself down and put his attention into the game. After reviewing the scoring situation in the first half, he felt hesitant.

The players who started the third quarter of the two teams came to the court.

Mavericks lineup: Harris, Daniels, Stackhouse, Ratliff, Dampier.

Trail Blazers lineup: Blake, Liu Xiu, Stevenson, Randolph, Sgotishvili.

Liu Xiu looked at the lineups on both sides. Although Randolph is on the court, he can't rely too much on it. He needs to create opportunities for the strongest teammate in the paint. The center is still a pit... In such a situation, you don't have to worry so much. up.

The third quarter started on time, with the Mavericks going first.

Harris drives upfield to get the ball to Stackhouse, then pulls away to keep the cut threat and take Blake away.

Daniels calmly moved to the bottom line shooting area, he knew that he was very difficult to single Liu Xiu.

But they still have Stackhouse!
The former Jordan's successor did not disappoint his teammates. Stackhouse forced a close-range throw and scored two points!
Stevenson often scolded Sgotishvili for his maddeningly slow footsteps.

The point difference came to 10 points!
In the transition between offense and defense, Blake advanced to the frontcourt and passed to Liu Xiu, who was leaning against Daniels on the right side of the free throw line.

Daniels defended very hard, but still couldn't hold back Liu Xiu's tyrannical strength, and was turned around by Liu Xiu.

But this was expected by Daniels. Liu Xiu's start after turning around made Daniels feel confused, forcing Daniels to retreat desperately.

Liu Xiu made an emergency stop on the right sideline of the three-second zone. Daniels retreated too hard and couldn't make up for it. Ratliff made up for it, but Liu Xiu's 'Talent: Jet' was triggered!After a quick bounce, Ratliff failed to form an interference in time to make up for the position.

Liu Xiu hit a short-range emergency stop jumper against Ratliff's supplementary defense!

It was the Mavericks' turn to attack, and Stackhouse continued to break through with the ball, attracting Liu Xiu's flank defense and then gave it to Daniels.

Daniels scored inside from the bottom line, Randolph actively made up, Daniels scored Dampier, Dampier squeezed Sigotishvili and smashed the ball into the basket with one hand.

Liu Xiu is also speechless. He thinks that Skotishvili, the No. 5 pick of the year as a center, should have something different. Counterattack or something. Tonight is the last day of the 10-day short contract. Now, why should we have a ball or two?

There is really no reversal at all.

In the transition between offense and defense, Liu Xiu continued to catch the ball from a high position and hit back. Daniels prepared to retreat in advance to avoid being flustered when Liu Xiu turned around and attacked.

Liu Xiu keenly discovered the opponent's defensive intentions, turned around and feinted, tricked Daniels into retreating, took a step forward, turned over, and made a jump shot...hit!
59 to 67, the point difference narrowed to 8 points again.

When it came time for the Mavericks to attack, Blake and Liu Xiu actively shrank the inside line. Daniels received the ball and gave it to Harris, who was half a step outside the free throw line.
Liu Xiu stuck Cartliff, 'Buff: Rock Solid' was triggered, and the take-off interference caused by the confrontation when grabbing rebounds was greatly reduced, grabbed the defensive rebound, and launched a counterattack!
'Talent: Flying Squirrel' triggers, counterattack speed +3!

Harris, who was chasing Liu Xiu, felt his scalp tingling. They were basically the same height, but the opponent was a lot stronger than him, and his speed was not worse than him, a player who is famous for his speed!

Although Harris tried his best to keep up with Liu Xiu, and even stuck to Liu Xiu heroically after Liu Xiu entered the three-point line, but just stuck, and could hardly limit Liu Xiu's speed...

Liu Xiu pushed Harris into the basket and made a layup!
The referee whistled, Liu Xiu's goal was valid, and Harris blocked the foul!

The fans booed Harris.

At the bottom line, some fans shouted "useless rookie, not even qualified to make the warden dunk".

Harris was so sad and angry: I am in the second grade!Not a rookie!
Taking advantage of Liu Xiu's walk to the free throw line, the general replaced Harris with Terry.

The little general found out that Harris is really ineffective when the team's offense is not good, the defense can't be defended, and the offensive end can't be used as a threat. There are only occasional counterattack opportunities, but he is strong on both offensive and defensive ends. When the starting teammates are paired together, Harris is particularly good.

Liu Xiu also made an additional penalty, scoring 7 points in a row, helping the Trail Blazers chase the score to 62 to 67, and the point difference was reduced to 5 points!
When it came time for the Mavericks to attack, Terry advanced to the frontcourt and came on his own. In singles, Blake's horizontal pull three-point jumper... went in!
Terry's take-off speed is comparable to that of an outlaw lunatic. As soon as Blake tiptoed, Terry had already thrown the ball in the air.

70 to 62, the point difference came to 8 points again.

When the Trail Blazers attacked, Randolph thought it was time to make a move, but just as he was about to get stuck, he heard Liu Xiu shouting "wait for the cake" from the top arc.

'Wait', Randolph didn't understand and forgot what it meant, but he remembered 'eat cake'.

Randolph didn't refuse, just keep paddling, just find an opportunity to cut in or pull away.

The tyrannical offensive firepower of the Mavericks kept suppressing the Trail Blazers at all times, but Liu Xiu didn't care about this pressure at all.

He loves it, anyway, he fights hard, if he can beat it, he can beat it, but if he can't beat it, he will fall down!
Liu Xiu continued his singles onslaught without pressure, bringing out his scoring ability and offensive desire that he had never fully demonstrated this season.

If the opportunity is good, you should vote, if the opportunity is not good, you should vote, and if there is no opportunity, you should vote hard...

In the second half of the third quarter, Maurice Cheeks replaced Ray Allen, Outlaw, and McDyess, and partnered Liu Xiu and Randolph. Liu Xiu's style of play remained unchanged, and he still shot !Just vote!
came back!The familiar feeling of teammates is back!
The surging power of the west coast is back!

延续了第三节开局3投3中连砍7分的势头，刘秀后面10分钟时间9投5中，其中三分球2中1，外加2中2的罚球，狂飙13分！
Focus on mid-range shooting, and attack the frame as a secondary option. There are not many opportunities for counterattacks, so try to seize them.

This is the offensive method that Liu Xiu came up with after reviewing the situation in the first half before the start of the third quarter. He continued to play without wavering, scoring 12 points on 8 of 20 shots in a single quarter.

The second pass of Randolph and the extrajudicial lunatic is very important at this time. When the Mavericks flanked Liu Xiu, they did a good job of defending against Liu Xiu's first pass. The two sent a lot of beautiful passes at this time. Ray- Allen scored 6 points in this half quarter, plus Randolph's 4 points and McDyess' 5 points. Although the Trail Blazers only scored 4 points, they scored 35 points in a single quarter!
The performance of the Mavericks is not bad, the defense has done a good job, did not let the Blazers step on the accelerator, and the offensive performance is also very good.

Stackhouse, who held Liu Xiu's offensive at the beginning, and Terry, who faced Liu Xiu in the mid-term, played very well.

In the second half of the third quarter, when Liu Xiu led the team, Daniels took advantage of Nowitzki's ability to pull the outlaws to the sideline, and took advantage of Terry's singles threat. Create scoring opportunities for Dampier and Josh Howard... 33 points in a single quarter!
After three quarters, the Mavericks led the Trail Blazers by 96 points 90 to 6 and entered the final quarter!
...

The Mavericks broke out tonight. Normally, tonight is a night for them to shine.

但是……24投14中，其中三分球5中2，外加11中10的罚球，刘秀三节狂飙40分6板5助攻3抢断！

King Yinjiao looked up at the data on the big screen, and he really didn't feel much. He had seen more violent ones not long ago.

At worst, the warden will score more than 60 points, what a big deal!
win!

He wants to win!

After Kobe scored 75 points, the Mavericks went through the most frightening period. The last time they played against the Trail Blazers was the stage they were most afraid of. After they didn't score many points, they were no longer afraid, not only were they not afraid, they also showed confidence... This was the source of the Mavericks' initial belief in winning when they stepped onto the court.

After entering the intermission, listening to Terry yelling "That guy with 40 points in three quarters is not our opponent, we will definitely win...", the teammates thought that was it!
The core lineup of the Mavericks has not changed. Most of the players who participated in last season's playoffs and were beaten by the Trail Blazers are there. At this time, they are extremely united and their desire to win is extremely strong!
The same thing looks different to different people.

In the face of Liu Xiu who scored 40 points in three quarters, he still maintained a lead of more than 5 points. Therefore, the Mavericks continued their previous confidence and were encouraged.

For the Trail Blazers, it was also an encouraging thing-they felt that they were going to collapse, and the warden narrowed the 2-point difference with his own efforts, and did not let the opponent spend the game!
When the last intermission ended and the players set foot on the court again, the players on both sides were extremely excited.

Trail Blazers lineup: Liu Xiu, Stevenson, outlaws, Raheem, Randolph.

Mavericks lineup: Terry, Stackhouse, Josh - Howard, Nowitzki, Dampier.

The fourth quarter started on time. Liu Xiu used Randolph's cover to break into the paint. Randolph's pick-and-roll quality was not enough. Josh Howard got a chance to pinch Dampier. Liu Xiu passed the ball and Stevenson responded. Missed a throw straight to the basket.

Nowitzki protected the defensive rebound and passed it to Terry. Terry advanced to the frontcourt and then passed it back to Nowitzki who was one step inside the three-point line. ...

The extrajudicial lunatic didn't get distracted, and the interference was in place at the first time. Nowitzki was already prepared, added a backward throw and threw the ball...in!
Nowitzki turned his head and clenched his fists to cheer himself up, trying to retreat.

Liu Xiu recalled Nowitzki's attack just now when he received the serve and pushed forward... Simplify the complexity?
Sure enough, King Silver Horn did not give up, and has been working hard to improve.

It's just that the goal like this just now depends on luck.

After advancing to the frontcourt, Liu Xiu continued to play pick-and-roll with Randolph. This time, he had no room for it. After the pick-and-roll, there was only one target—the basket!
Liu Xiu took the initiative to bypass Dampier with his back. Sure enough, Randolph did not block the stable man. The main reason was that Josh Howard defended well. Facing Josh Howard's supplementary defense, Liu Xiu directly went inside against Josh Howard. sudden.

However, although the pick-and-roll failed, it was not useless. Liu Xiu made good use of the bonuses of 'Buff: General' and 'Big Black Bear's Ankle Brace', and used a faster speed to rush into the inside against Josh Howard, reducing the Opportunity for Josh Howard to make a defensive move!
At close range, Liu Xiu forcibly took off, 'Talent: Jet' was triggered, the bullet speed and jumping were improved, and the shooting stability was improved... against Josh Howard, he made a forced layup!
Purely rely on personal ability!

98 to 92, the Mavericks still lead by 6 points, but they dare not be careless.

When the Mavericks attacked, Nowitzki was going to do it again, but just as Liu Xiu expected, although Nowitzki had an idea just now, it still depended on luck.
But Josh Howard rushed to grab an offensive rebound and made a tip-up, and the point difference came to 8 points again.

When it was Liu Xiu's turn to attack, he was not impatient and his thoughts were not complicated, just one thought - hold on to the score, hold on to the score, hold on to the score!
As long as you can bite the score, you still have a chance!
attack!attack!Still attack!Since you can't prevent it, then attack with your life!
This time Liu Xiu didn't play singles, but wanted tactics. The extrajudicial lunatic caught the ball from the top arc, Randolph got stuck in the low post, and Liu Xiu started the offensive mode without the ball.

Randolph, who had been paddling for a long time, finally had some work to do. He did a great catch and set pass. Liu Xiu ran back and came out and had a short catch and shot opportunity. Randolph tacitly sent the ball to Liu Xiu. inside.

Liu Xiu received the ball from outside the three-point line at a 30-degree angle on the right to meet Stackhouse, who was supplementing the defense, and took off to shoot. Relying on the addition of the 'jet', he successfully avoided Stackhouse's interference and made a three-pointer with the ball !
When it came time for the Mavericks to attack, Terry singled out Liu Xiu, suddenly jumped inside the free throw line, and made a mid-range shot with no sense of rhythm... also scored!

Liu Xiu is playing with her life, and so is Terry!
Not only the two of them, but other players of the two teams have already entered the state of 'I can't get out of this breath'.

The coaches of the two teams are actively thinking about tactics, analyzing the game, seizing the opportunity of tactical replacement and lineup rotation, and don't want to hold back in these aspects!
