Healing Basketball

Chapter 1033 1033.Logo Man's Damage
Wade reacted quickly and immediately turned around to chase after Liu Xiu's footsteps.

Liu Xiu rushed into the three-point line under Wade's defense, grabbed the ball at the free throw line, squeezed Wade away with brute force, and then performed a European step. Wade pressed up again and made an empty shot. side, pulled up on the spot, and smashed the ball into the basket with one hand!
Wade's cheeks became bulging again.

He's gained 220 lbs!

And the opponent is obviously not the 230-pound body at the beginning of last season, but his strength is still at a disadvantage!
He can carry Bosh and Nowitzki in the low position!
At this moment, he understood that it turned out that the strength of the other party was not purely based on weight, but a strength monster itself.

But with such a strength monster, why do he need such a large weight?

He felt that even if Liu Xiu's weight was reduced to less than 200 pounds, his strength would not be inferior to him, and his speed might be even faster.

Wade was thinking wildly because the power he was proud of was suppressed, but Liu Xiu, who was retreating, focused on a completely different point.

Everyone felt that Wade was intercepted just now because Liu Xiu succeeded in gambling. If Wade had focused enough just now, he could have converted the mistake into a final score, and Wade himself felt the same way.

But Liu Xiu reacted instantly after confirming that it was an excellent opportunity to steal!

The role of 'prison killing' is not limited to offense, the improvement of offensive reading ability on the defensive end is also strong!
Moreover, the stronger the offensive and defensive strength, the stronger the effect of 'prison killing'!

It was still the Heat's offense. Wade advanced to the frontcourt and carefully protected the ball, waiting for his teammates to move positions to press time and grind the position.

While waiting, he observed the defensive positions of the rest of the Trail Blazers, focused on the breakthrough, and looked for Liu Xiu's defensive flaws... Something is wrong!

He discovered that he could do anything!

This is not to say that Liu Xiu's defense is full of loopholes, but that Liu Xiu's defensive position can play a very balanced role!

Wade thinks he can do anything because of his strong breakthrough ability, even if Liu Xiu defends well, he still has a way.

But the reason why he is a bit at a loss now is that he feels that he can't find a more suitable way to break through!Strong sudden change, direction change, cross step... It seems that the effects are similar, and they will all be greatly disturbed.

In this situation, for someone like him who likes to rely on instinct when breaking through, it is a lot more troublesome than most options being locked and only one option left.

When all the options seemed similar, he finally chose the easiest way to break through—relying on the first step to make a breakthrough!
This was within Liu Xiu's expectations!
Liu Xiu moved her footsteps in time. Although she didn't stop Wade's advance, she restricted the direction of Wade's breakthrough and prevented Wade from performing the Eurostep by relying on her superior strength.

Kwame-Brown's timing of the encirclement was well grasped, and it was very tacit. Although Wade made a quick shot before the formation of the encirclement, it was too hasty and the force was not well controlled.
Randolph protects the defensive rebound!

Wade retreated quickly to prevent Liu Xiuqi from counterattacking.

At this time, a person appeared in Wade's mind-Jason Kidd?

Liu Xiu's defense just now gave him the feeling that the former No. [-] point guard Jason Kidd he met in the first and second grades was still at the peak of his defense!

At this moment, Wade felt targeted.

He has watched the videos of Liu Xiu's first few games. Although Liu Xiu's defense has improved obviously, compared with tonight's "terrible" defense, it can be said that there is a qualitative gap!
In his opinion, if Liu Xiu can maintain this defense for a whole season, he will have a chance to compete with Artest, Garnett and others for DPOY!

But when Liu Xiu defended against other people, he didn't seem to defend so well tonight... He felt that he must have been targeted!

After these thoughts flashed through his mind, he unconsciously felt a little bit of complacency... At this time, Liu Xiu quickly advanced, and he put away his distracting thoughts and defended well.

But Liu Xiu did not attack or pick and roll, but handed the ball to Hill, who was leaning on Beasley on the right side of the free throw line.

In Hill's singles game, Beasley threw it out with just one horizontal pull, and his teammates on and off the field were instantly speechless.

Marion quickly made up, Liu Xiu cut from the left, Wade followed Liu Xiu, Liu Xiu entered the basket under the cover of Kwame Brown, received the ball from Hill, and threw the ball without stopping... Hit!
The start is 6 to 0!

The two teams showed a considerable strength gap.

This was the case throughout the first half, with the Blazers playing against the Heat.

刘秀首节3投3中，其中三分球1中1，虽无罚球，但也拿到了7分2板2助攻的数据，带队打出了31比19分比分，首节领先热火队12分。

到了第二节，刘秀1投1中，外加4中4的罚球，拿到6分1板4助攻，率队单节打出27比21的比分，半场打完，开拓者队58比40领先热火队18分！
Although Wade scored the highest score in the halftime, scoring 16 points, more than Randolph who scored 14 points in the halftime, but he made 16 of 6 shots and 7 of 4 free throws...Suddenly, he met the first and second graders again. The kind of defense that drove him crazy, although Wade's strength has been greatly improved compared to that time, he still played very badly.

There is also the CIC, which accounted for 30% of his scoring this season. Under Liu Xiu's defense, he only scored 1 goal in the half.

Whether he stops suddenly, retreats, changes direction, or pulls horizontally, the guy on the opposite side can probably judge it!
Wade has a feeling of being overcome by the opponent...

Obviously his scoring skills are better than before!Why does it feel more restrained?

...

In the second half, Wade fought back and made 12 of 5 shots in the half, including 1 of 1 three-pointers and 12 of 9 free throws. He scored 20 points in the half and led the Heat to win in the third and fourth quarters. To 28 points.

The Trail Blazers, after returning from the intermission, began to accept the fact that the rhythm was slowed down, fell into the slow-paced positional battle, and tried to play fast in the slow-paced positional battle, just like the Nets and Suns at the beginning. After being dragged into the position by the opponent, he forced a fast-paced attack.

The effect... not so good.

In order to enhance the success rate, they temporarily sacrificed defense and replaced possible more suitable players, but the defense was not good, and the scoring was not high... It is true that this did not happen overnight.

The Suns took off after getting Nash because in the 03-04 season, D'Antoni had begun to develop the running and bombing ability of role players.

The Trail Blazers only scored 22 points in the third quarter and 24 points in the fourth quarter, losing to the Heat by 10 points at halftime.

But it's not a big problem!The front is much ahead!

104 to 96, the Trail Blazers beat the Heat by 8 points!

韦德28投11中，其中三分球4中1，外加19中13的罚球，拿到36分6板8助攻2抢断3盖帽……当爹又当妈的属性在今晚体现得淋漓尽致。

除了他，表现最好的马里昂14分11板、哈斯勒姆8分10板、比斯利11分、查尔莫斯10分5助攻。

刘秀这边，下半场拿到16分2板4助攻，全场拿到29分5板10助攻4抢断2盖帽，下半场说琢磨阵地战强起快攻，结果多数时候成了他单打突分。

兰多夫的25分、法外狂徒10分8板2助攻2抢断、雷-阿伦14分2助攻、希尔8分4板7助攻、夸梅-布朗7分10板……整体表现出色，开局8连胜到手！

Cheek looked at the scene of celebration on the opposite side, thinking about being defeated by the warden tonight, he was already numb.

got used to.

I was looking forward to it before the game, but I was very lonely after the game.

The 26-year-old cheekbang already has the mentality of a 30-year-old great god-he doesn't want to prove his ability to lead the team alone, and wants to help!
The team selected the legendary most talented, dubbed the 'next James', the super talent Michael Beasley, who made the 206club Hawks salivate, cheeks were full of joy, thinking he got his Deron Williams .

But this damn genius ranked second, in addition to being more lunatic in appearance, his performance is not as good as that of the opposite lawless lunatic...

What is a real talent rookie?

Wade has seen Deron next to Kobe, Paul next to Boozer, Kwame Brown next to Liu Xiu, and Roy next to Luol Deng.

Beasley, looking at physical talent and technical talent, yes, but the whole person, in Wade's view, is not.

The cheeks fell into the daily melancholy after losing in the past three years, and the warden is enjoying the joy of 8 consecutive victories.

The joys and sorrows of people are always different...

By 7:[-] the next morning, most of the Blazers were sleeping in.

Only Liu Xiu, Ray Allen, Outlaw Fanatic, and Hill got up early to eat breakfast.

Liu Xiu was very happy that he no longer had breakfast alone.

The other three people were quite resentful—they always thought that they were the only ones in the team who got up early, so they kept asking the waiter to deliver something to the room to eat.

Today Ray Allen was going to the restaurant for breakfast on a whim, but he saw Liu Xiu, Hill went out to buy a pack of cigarettes, saw Liu Xiu and Ray Allen, the extrajudicial lunatic got up and washed and heard voices outside the door... ...The achievement of having breakfast with 4 people.

This allowed the three teammates to understand some aspects of the warden's self-discipline, which is very special.

Just after playing back-to-back, the team's itinerary is to fly to the next stop at 3 pm.

After breakfast, Liu Xiu invited the outlaws to play games in his room, which has a living room and is more spacious.

This time I was playing CS. After playing a few rounds, Liu Xiu just got into shape when there was a knock on the door, and he went to open the door impatiently.

It was the vice president and the head coach who came. After saying sorry, they walked in, closed the door, and saw Liu Xiu's stinky face, two computers on the table, and the outlaw lunatic who greeted them... They were used to it.

These young people will feel very bad if their games are interrupted.

This made the vice president in a good mood, ignored the warden's unhappy eyes, and said what he wanted: "Jess, we received a trade application from the Timberwolves this morning. The player they want is Steve, and the chips they gave are Randy Foye."

Liu Xiu, who wanted to quickly finish the chat and send the two away, was immediately attracted to the attention and waved at the outlaw lunatic. The latter understood and went to the side to play with the handheld. The boss has something to discuss .

Liu Xiu asked curiously: "How could they be so generous? No, their being so generous means that they confirm that Steve is their savior. It's strange, right?"

Liu Xiu remembers that Randy Foye served as the starting point guard for the Timberwolves this season, averaging 13 points, 3 rebounds, 4 assists and 1 steal per game.

The coach responded: "A few days ago there was news that Jerry West would join the Timberwolves management. Now the rumors should be true. I think this may be his idea."

Liu Xiu nodded lightly: "I see, that's why they filled up the chips all at once. I think they are the best chips they are willing to give away in this deal with Steve... This is the style of the logo man, trading big-name players It’s time to pull and pull, let the other party take advantage when trading role players, and get a favor when you get the player you want.”

The vice president asked: "Then shall we trade?"

Liu Xiu asked strangely: "Boss, why are you so active in wanting to send Steve to the Timberwolves?"

The coach laughed and said: "He admires Steve very much. Seeing that Steve has played fewer games this season than Golan, a rookie, he is anxious. We chatted and felt that Minneapolis is very suitable for Steve. .”

"Your mentality may have been expected by the logo man," Liu Xiu said after complaining, thought for a while, and made a decision: "Reject them."

Both the vice president and the head coach thought that Liu Xiu would agree, but they didn't expect to hear such a decision.

Liu Xiu and Blake have a good relationship. Although Liu Xiu has been 'bullying' Blake, in fact Liu Xiu takes care of this second-round pick of the same year.

Liu Xiu explained: "Although he can get a good return, Foye is not the player we need, and despite Foye's good statistics, he is only suitable for playing the sixth man. The starting lineup is completely after dragging Roy. Legs, in terms of trading, if we want to change a chip back, then why trade? Although Foye's trading value may be higher, but the trading difficulty is obviously better for Steve, Steve does not occupy the ball, His shooting is solid, he dares to take responsibility at critical moments, and he has the leadership ability in the locker room... No worries about leaving home, and the Timberwolves are not the only teams suitable for him."

The vice president calmed down when he heard the words. It is true. If it is a trade, don't look at Foye's good statistics and more talent in menopause, but in fact it may be that their prison team is at a disadvantage.

Let's find a new home for Blake!The vice president felt that the warden was right. A point guard of such high quality as Blake would not worry about leaving home, but they didn't have a high demand for traditional point guards here.

The coach laughed: "If Jerry West really joins the Timberwolves, after being rejected, they may find a way to get back the players we want and then trade with us."

The vice president asked: "They know what kind of players we want? Why not operate in the first place?"

"The Timberwolves have Roy, Gasol, and Deng. The goal must be the championship. The first choice must be to strengthen themselves and prevent us from being strengthened." Liu Xiu's tone was full of disdain.

The coach echoed: "Yes, maybe they still want to cheat us. I heard that Foye has a character problem and beat their rookie Brandon Rush in the preseason."

Liu Xiu heard the words and complained: "I can only say that he is indeed a genius of the Timberwolves..."

He also thought of an ironic thing, as if it was 2016 or 2017, Foye was voted by the players to win the 'Players Union Best Teammate Award', and then in that summer, Foye failed to get the next contract , The teams he tried out were worried that he would affect the atmosphere in the team and that he would fight with a certain teammate.

In the eyes of the fans, winning this award once is comparable to PJ-Brown winning the player ethics award-in the second round of the 1997 playoffs, the Heat and the Knicks, the Heat fell behind 1-3 and lost The incredible Heat insider PJ-Brown deliberately pushed the opponent from below when the Knicks' 188 cm small guard made a layup, which almost caused the opponent to be injured and caused a brawl.

The vice president listened from the sidelines, and gradually became unable to intervene. He controlled the general transactions very well, but in these aspects involving intrigue, he was not as good as the two guys around him who had 800 minds.

But he's used to it, and he's the vice president of player operations anyway.

He went to ask outsiders to teach him how to play CS, saying that he wanted to keep up with the trend of the times and keep up with the pace of young people.
