Healing Basketball

Chapter 988 988. Outrageous Reasons

"The warden hasn't got a block in 4 games in a row, the longest this season... What kind of shit, can you give some news to normal people..."

On the morning of the second day after the loss to the Mavericks, Liu Xiu watched the news. They lost, but no one complained. The media and fans focused on his statistics.

When watching the news, he didn't feel any pressure, as if everything was so beautiful, singing and dancing...

55 wins and 21 losses is pretty good. He feels that his teammates are also in a good mood, and the mood of the game is very high.

Thinking about it this way, it seems to be no problem.

Let's practice shooting!

The combination of supporting basic skills and three-point basic skills is really terrible to practice.

At this time, he can feel the cruelty of sports...

The schedule of 5 teams in the Southwest Division taking turns is still going on. After a day's rest, the game day for the Trail Blazers to face the Spurs at home has arrived.

The day before yesterday, after the Spurs defeated the Nuggets at home, their record improved to 64 wins and 13 losses.

In the East, the Bulls have a record of 58 wins and 19 losses, and the Spurs have locked in the league's first place 5 games ahead of schedule.

Duncan not only overwhelmed Anthony to be selected as the All-Star starter, but also became one of the MVP favorites.

This made Karl Malone want to come back and give Duncan two kicks.

The characteristics of Duncan's evergreen tree have been shown. Judging from Duncan's current pure floor style of play, Malone may not be able to keep the record of being the second oldest player in the best team.

At present, Kareem Abdul-Jabbar was selected for the first team at the age of 39, and Malone was selected for the first team at the age of 36. Kareem Abdul-Jabbar was the oldest selected for the best team. The second oldest was Malone at the age of 38. Selected three teams.

The two of them have the same characteristics as Duncan. Both of them have adjusted their playing styles in their 30s, and their performance has improved significantly compared to the previous year.

At the age of 32, Kareem Abdul-Jabbar scored less than 25 points per game for the first time in his career. It was also the first time in his career that he was only selected to the second team for two consecutive years. At the age of 33, he became teammates with the Magician. He completely adjusted his style of play to the hook Shooting is the main thing.

Then, at the age of 33, Kareem Abdul-Jabbar played the most efficient season of his career. With COSCO shooting as the main scoring method, he shot an outrageous 60% shooting percentage and won the sixth regular season MVP trophy in his career.

Ma Long did not decline, and continued for 11 consecutive years. In 96, at the age of 33, he found that the four major centers were getting worse and worse. Originally, he made almost [-]% of the COSCO shots, and he began to increase the proportion of offense at the basket.

As a result, at the age of 34, his score did not drop but rose, and he also hit a shooting percentage that was only available in the two years when he was 27 and eight years old with the best physical fitness, and won the first MVP trophy in his career.

Duncan's situation looks to be the same as these two.

What makes Duncan better than these two is that he has better team honors in his age group. Before meeting the magician, Kareem Abdul-Jabbar won a championship after playing for ten years, and Malone never won a championship.

The Spurs system is the most popular topic besides Liu Xiu's triple-double this season. The teamwork displayed by that system is too scary. It feels like every player is a puzzle. A player with characteristics can play like a star.

Duncan is in such an environment, and it is normal for Malone to want to kick someone.

The final game between the Blazers and the Spurs in the regular season has attracted a lot of attention.

The Trail Blazers are currently ranked third in the Western Conference, and the dynasty's deterrence is currently the strongest and most direct year. Even if they stumble this season, public opinion generally believes that they will be completely different in the playoffs. Preview for the Western Conference Finals.

Then, at 7:40 p.m., when Duncan, Parker, and Ginobili were sitting on the bench in suits, the Rose Garden exploded, and the three were booed wildly, not to mention other places.

But the scary thing is that after the game started, the Trail Blazers did not play well.

In the first quarter, the Spurs led the Trail Blazers 27 to 23 by 4 points. In the second quarter, the Spurs opened up another 32 point difference 31 to 1. In the third quarter, the Spurs made persistent efforts, relying on Jacqui Vaughn, Finley , Barry, Scola, Bonner, Kurt Thomas and others played a score of 32 to 28. After three quarters, the point difference was opened to 9 points!
At the end of the quarter, the role of the star was really revealed.

刘秀末节狂飙18分4板4助攻，雷-阿伦进了3个三分球单节11分，率队狂飙43分。

For the Spurs, the team's style of play was out of control at this time, and the team's offense was no match for the crazy offense of Liu Xiu and Ray Allen. The stars played in singles...the troika had all rested, and Finley was powerless.

In the final quarter, the Spurs were scored by Liu Xiu and Ray Allen with only 21 points, and the Trail Blazers scored 22 points in a single quarter.

In fact, the Spurs players continue to play steadily, and it is still possible to hold on to the victory, but the troika is not there, and when they need stars, they are really messed up.

最终，靠着了刘秀38分13板14助攻、兰多夫22分11板1助攻、雷-阿伦24分、希尔17分4板3助攻、夸梅-布朗14分9板……

The Trail Blazers reversed the Spurs 125 to 112 and won their 56th victory of the season!
...

Liu Xiu scored his 41st triple-double this season, tying the record set by the Big O in the 1961-1962 season.

Duncan was unable to play because of a hangover, Parker was absent due to a groin strain, and Ginobili was attacked and injured by bats when he went into the bat cave at night... These are the reasons Popovich gave for the troika after the game.

As for why the three were not notified in advance to take turns, Popovich said that he had not determined whether the severity of the injuries of the three needed to take turns.

The next morning, the news that Liu Xiu saw was basically related to these two things.

At noon, due to public opinion, the league announced a fine of $15 on the Spurs and $5 on Popovich.

This is the top penalty under the relevant regulations.

Although Liu Xiu thought it was funny, she did feel humiliated during the match last night.

When you are a fan, the team you support will only watch it for fun when the Spurs take a break.

But I concentrated on preparing for the game, thought of countless possibilities, made the best preparations, and faced the game with the highest respect, but the opponent's star took turns to rest...

What irritated him the most was the Spurs team without a troika, and they almost lost!
He is more eager to fight the Spurs as soon as possible to avenge this arrow.

But winning the game, there are also good things, "Superstar in Troubled Times Series Mission: Enemy against the Strongest System", tied 2-2 with the Spurs, did not lose in the regular season, completed the mission, and got the reward.

"20 minutes of Jordan (Talent Tendency): After activation, the host can specify 20 minutes to enter the explosive state before the start of each game. The time outside the explosive state will enter a random state. When Nobili is competing in the same field, this talent can be activated without activation."

If this is the talent tendency he got when his comprehensive evaluation first reached 85, and if there are enough talent fragments, he will regard it as a transitional talent in the early stage... now it is like a chicken rib.
