Healing Basketball

Chapter 634
After scoring the goal, Pierce glanced at Liu Xiu, raised his chin and turned his head to retreat.

Every time he played against Liu Xiu, Pierce worked very hard and was full of motivation, so he had a very good relationship with Hinrich of the Bulls in private.

The two are considered to be the most hostile players to Liu Xiu in the East, even more hostile than Kidd, McGrady and others who lost to Liu Xiu in the finals.

But Liu Xiu ignored Pierce, and only had the goal of winning. The two starting teammates on the front line rested in rotation. He was extra cautious.

Stevenson was very reliable at the beginning, catching the ball and hitting a three-pointer, and Pierce returned one.

The playing styles of the two teams are completely different. The Celtics are underdogs. They often have uncoordinated breakout + singles, or Delonte West breakout, Pierce or Szczerbiak outside. Reception, LaFrentz or Perkins eat pie; or Pierce or Szczerbiak singles.

For the Trail Blazers, Aaron Williams was replaced by Raheem after 2 minutes of playing. He knew that he was just a fake starter who maintained the rotation. Do well what you should do as a coolie power forward.

After Raheem played, the Blazers launched a regular team attack.

At the end of the first quarter, the Celtics relied on substitute power forward Brian Scalabrian to catch the ball and made a mid-range shot. The score in a single quarter increased to 30 points, leading the Trail Blazers 30 to 25 by 5 points and entering the intermission !
皮尔斯7投3中，其中三分球2中2，外加2中2的罚球，单节拿到10分1板1助攻1盖帽，表现非常出色；斯泽比亚克6投3中拿到8分，两人带队在首节强压开拓者队一头。

For the Trail Blazers, Raheem scored the highest score in the first quarter, with 9 points in a single quarter, Liu Xiu scored 4 points and 3 assists, and Ray Allen scored a three-pointer. A total of 8 players played, and everyone scored , but not much.

Although the score in the first quarter was not as fierce as the Celtics, the offense was not particularly good, and the defense was poor, but the scoring was evenly distributed and the team played very well.

The overall defense of the Celtics is better than last season when they were used by major scorers to score points. In the second quarter, the Trail Blazers scored a little higher, scoring 27 points in a single quarter, while Pierce and Szerby Yake attacked too hard in the first quarter, and his performance in the second quarter was mediocre. Both of them scored only 5 points in the second quarter, and the Celtics only scored 22 points.

After halftime, the Trail Blazers tied the score 52-52!
首节好不容易打出5分领先优势，第二节对面轻松追回去了，刘秀半场打了17分钟，首节4投2中拿到4分3助攻、第二节4投3中拿到8分2助攻，半场轻轻松松拿到12分5助攻带队追平比分……皮尔斯很气很不爽很愤怒！
In the third quarter Pierce broke out!10 of 7 shots in a single quarter, including 3 of 2 three-pointers, plus 4 of 4 free throws, soaring 20 points, the Celtics bucked the trend and reversed the downward trend in scoring performance in the second quarter. Got 29 points.

Liu Xiu made 5 of 2 shots in the third quarter, plus 4 of 3 free throws to get 7 points and 4 assists. Ray Allen made 6 of 3 shots and scored 7 points with a three-pointer. The two scored together 14 points, in addition, Kwame Brown, Stevenson, Raheem, each scored 4 points, plus the 3 points and 3 assists of the flying mouse, the Trail Blazers also scored 29 points in the third quarter!
After Pierce went crazy for a quarter, he found out in despair that he had scored 20 points in a single quarter and still failed to take the lead. The score was tied 81-81!
Pierce couldn't attack anymore, and he made 3 of 0 shots in a wave of [-] shots in the final quarter.

And Liu Xiucai just started!
末节前半节，刘秀3投1中，外加5中5的罚球，拿到7分3板3助攻1抢断，率领开拓者队打出19比2的半节高潮，将比分打成100比83，直接将凯尔特人队打崩！
Both teams replaced their main players. In the second half of the fourth quarter, the Celtics gave the Trail Blazers a 22-13 half-quarter climax, but it was useless.

最终，靠着刘秀的26分7板12助攻2抢断、雷-阿伦的20分、拉希姆的28分，开拓者队以113比105击败凯尔特人队，将战绩提升至42胜8负！
The strength of the warden and the stability of the three-point leader are the sources of confidence for Maurice Cheeks to let Randolph take a break. However, in his opinion, it is Raheem who led the team to win tonight.

Inside the Celtics, Perkins is tough and has potential, but this high school student is still too immature; LaFrentz was ruined by injuries and is no longer the "white center's hope"; another high school student Al Jefferson is too slow.

When beating these three people, Raheem was like chopping melons and vegetables.

...

On February 2th, the second day of the back-to-back, at 10:8 am, Liu Xiu went to the restaurant to get some food, and went to the window to enjoy breakfast.

At this time, the teammates who had just finished the back-to-back games were all sleeping late, and the lake view villa hotel contracted by the vice president was quiet and peaceful...

"Oh, oh, warden, you really came to have breakfast on time..."

Liu Xiu watched Randolph bluffing and "bang" as he put the dinner plate on the dining table with dead fish eyes.

Randolph asked while eating: "I'm still curious why you can get up on time for breakfast every day? Are you afraid of being hungry?"

Liu Xiu responded: "Aren't you so early today? Why, you are also going to try to improve yourself? No, the coach said last night that you should continue to rest in the next game against the Bobcats."

Randolph shook his head: "I didn't get up that early, I went to the nightclub with Pierce last night, and I just came back."

"Spent a night in a nightclub?"

"Pierce found three female college students to play with last night, and let those of us who went to the nightclub together watch, God, this city populated by white people is much more unrestrained than ours..."

"Uh..." Liu Xiu was speechless for a moment, skipped the topic, and asked, "Are you familiar with Pierce?"

Randolph thought for a while: "Fortunately, I met him when I was in high school. He was already an NBA player at that time. He came to one of my games and gave me a new set of clothes after the game."

"Why? Are you playing well?"

"Of course I played very well, I am also a genius high school student!"

"That's right, those of you who can enter the NBA must be well-known talented junior high school students and high school students."

"Aren't you too?"

Liu Xiu shook her head: "I'm not. Although I played basketball before, I joined the school team for the first time in my junior year. I don't have as much campus basketball experience as you. After learning basketball for a year, I went straight to the NBA."

Hearing this, the spoon in Randolph's hand was bent!
