Healing Basketball

Chapter 649 649. He suddenly stopped working hard
After resting for an afternoon, after eating a nutritious meal at 5 o'clock in the evening, the rest of the Trail Blazers came to the Staples Center to warm up and prepare for the game.

Although back-to-backs are tiring, compared to when they played back-to-backs in January and early February, the state of the Trail Blazers players is obviously much better.

The effect of rest during the All-Star weekend is very obvious.

That's right, when it was time to warm up, the teammates found that the warden seemed extraordinarily restless.

At 8 o'clock in the evening, the Trail Blazers played the second back-to-back away game against the Lakers.

Although the record of the Lakers declined in February, without the continuity of those real first-class teams, but with Kobe, they can win any game, and the Lakers players dare not slack off.

With tyrannical strength and brutal physical strength, Kobe has the ability to destroy the opponent's entire team by himself.

For such an opponent, the Trail Blazers players pay special attention to it, because there is someone around them who often does this...

And their Trail Blazers are playing the second back-to-back game tonight. Although their physical reserves are not bad after rest during the All-Star Weekend, and they have a good rest during the day today, it is inevitable that their physical strength will be affected.

but!

After the game started, the situation was very different from what the Trail Blazers expected.

Kobe collapsed at the beginning!

首节科比8投1中，加上4中2的罚球也才拿到4分2助攻，导致湖人队首节只拿到15分。

开拓者队表现平稳，刘秀首节4投3中拿到8分2板3助攻，率队单节拿到26分。

26 to 15, the Trail Blazers opened the point difference to double digits in the first quarter!

Tonight's game was broadcast live by many TV stations. Kobe's performance was astonishing. In the words of Yang Jian, the commentator of the imperial court, those who didn't know thought Kobe was playing back-to-back.

In the second quarter, Kobe's performance picked up. He scored 7 points on 3 of 8 shots in a single quarter, but did not assist 1. In the first quarter, he had already brought down the offensive rhythm of the Lakers. The Lakers only scored 20 points. point.

The Trail Blazers performed quite well in the second quarter, scoring 24 points in a single quarter.

After halftime, the Trail Blazers opened the point difference to 15 points, leading the Lakers 50 to 35!
In the third quarter, Kobe finally got over his strength. He threw 13 times in a single quarter, scored 13 points on 8 of 18 shots, and led his teammates who had been adjusted by the intermission to score 35 points in a single quarter.

But the Trail Blazers also played well in the third quarter. Liu Xiu hit the ball again and again, scoring 11 points and 4 assists in a single quarter, leading the team to score 30 points in a single quarter.

After three quarters, the Trail Blazers still led the Lakers by 80 points 70-10.

At the end of the quarter, Kobe's physical strength was still not stretched, and he only scored 9 goals in 3 shots, and missed 3 free throws, and only scored 6 points.

The Lakers' scoring also collapsed, only scoring 18 points in a single quarter.

The performance of the Trail Blazers returned to normal in the final quarter. The Lakers players did a good job of pressing down under the coaching of Zen Master. The Trail Blazers scored 24 points in the final quarter. It is difficult to score high points under the rhythm. As the season progresses and the number of matches increases, Zen Master has more ways to defend the Trail Blazers.

19投11中，其中三分球5中2，外加7中7的罚球，刘秀拿到31分6板14助攻，率领开拓者队以104比88轻取湖人队，拒绝第10场失利！
After the game, Bryant walked into the tunnel cursing.

He felt that Liu Xiu afternoon deliberately lured him to shoot hundreds of times to consume him!

But this is not the place where he is most angry, there is no way, he is stupid, and he has been fooled by the warden.

He was most angry when Liu Xiu said 'this effort is over'.

He really saw Liu Xiu's leapfrog progress!

Liu Xiu didn't shoot much during the All-Star Weekend. Kobe's impression of Liu Xiu's mid-range shooting ability was from the match in January.

From Kobe's point of view, in tonight's game, compared with more than a month ago, Liu Xiu's CIC has improved a lot!
This kind of person who can make such a big improvement with just a little hard work is so annoying!
On the other hand, Liu Xiu failed to talk to Kobe before and during the game tonight, and the other party ignored the trash talk, and wanted to chat after the game, but the other side just walked away...

However, Kobe made 37 of 15 shots and 22 irons in a single game. As an opponent, Liu Xiu was really shocked by the feeling of seeing so many irons!He remembered that he also had such a blacksmithing feast, and it turned out that his opponent felt this way...

Why Kobe became unhappy, Liu Xiu did not think deeply.

This guy has always been like this. No one looks down on him when he is a master, and he is unhappy when he is a little blacksmith.

...

The next afternoon, the Trail Blazers left Los Angeles and came to San Antonio.

After a night of rest, on March 3, another game day for the Trail Blazers arrived.

At 8:30 in the morning, the Trail Blazers set off to the ATT Center to prepare for the game against the Spurs tonight.

On the bus, the vice president looked back at the left window in the last row from time to time.

The coach on the side asked strangely: "What's wrong, Kevin?"

The vice president responded, "Jess is sitting there."

"The warden isn't sitting there, could it be that he is running outside?"

"Stop talking!" the vice president said angrily, "Shouldn't Jess be training more at this time? In order to adapt to his training intensity, I have raised the salaries of the trainers, and recruited 3 new trainers with a basic salary. It's also gone up!"

The coach asked: "So what? Will you be paid?"

The vice president was stunned, and replied: "It doesn't matter."

"That's right, and you don't want to pay your salary, why are you worrying about this?"

"That's right..." The vice president felt that this was the reason...

wrong!The vice president reacted abruptly: "Am I talking about the trainer's salary?"

The coach leaned on the back of the chair and asked, "What are you talking about?"

"I mean the warden, he suddenly doesn't work hard again!"

"Isn't this normal? He worked hard suddenly, and of course it would happen suddenly if he didn't work hard. Didn't you worry about his injury a few days ago? Don't worry about it now, that's great."

"..."

"Besides, look at how happy the trainers are, why don't you be happy too, and also, I found that the warden has made great progress after working hard this time!"

"Really?"

"Why lie to you, let's practice a few sets of basic skills later..."

The Trail Blazers live not far from the ATT Center, and they arrived at the training ground of the ATT Center in ten minutes.

After the players changed into their training uniforms and came to the training ground, the coach really asked the players to warm up and practice basic skills first, and then start the pre-match meeting after the training.

This is different from the rhythm the players are used to, but it is not a big deal. Everyone warms up actively and trains actively with the help of the trainers.

A team built around the superstar Warden, others, even Randolph's poor performance, will be put on the bench to reflect. This is a precedent, and it also means that if others perform well , it is possible to push the starter down!
