Healing Basketball

Chapter 201 201. Gentleman Thunder

On March 3, the first game day of the new month for the Trail Blazers arrived.

Starting at 10 am, two training sessions of 20 minutes each were conducted.

The training ends at 11 o'clock, some players go to rest, and some players have to practice again.

"Warden, have you grown stronger again?" Derek Anderson asked, rubbing his arm.

In the last offensive and defensive training just now, Derek Anderson posted it when Liu Xiu cut in and received the ball. He lowered his center of gravity to fight against Liu Xiu, but was knocked away by Liu Xiu who rushed up.

It was actually like this before, but this time he had a more obvious feeling that his blocking effect was a little worse.

"Yes, the recent training has worked well."

"..."

Derek Anderson feels that there is no comparison between people. Before his serious injury, he also considered himself a genius, with good athletic ability and fast learning speed, but compared with Liu Xiu... the longer the time, the more incomparable he feels.

Liu Xiu reviewed the actual combat training just now, and found that the power directly improved by the system will adapt to the technology faster.

I didn't feel it once or twice, but I felt it this time.

Because there is a comparison with Tieshan's force method, the difference is still obvious.

'Master this trick first, and then discuss with the trainer how to integrate these power movements into back hitting skills...'

Thinking of this, Liu Xiu was very excited, and went to the gym to roll sandbags!
The Basic Skills of Bajiquan's Fierce Word Jue-Tieshan Relying on Walking!

After practicing for half an hour, Liu Xiu and Randolph had lunch together.

"Warden, how many more games can we play at home?"

"3 games, 4 consecutive home games since playing Celtics."

"I heard that there are only 16 games this month, which is looser than last month's schedule."

"No, there were no games yesterday and the day before yesterday, that is, 29 games in 16 days, which is about the same schedule density as last month."

Butcher complained: "If you don't tell me this kind of thing, I will really feel that the schedule of playing 31 games in 16 days is not easy. When the time comes, I will play the game. I will not think about it. Now When you put it that way, I will think about the tight schedule of 29 games in 16 days every day!"

No, Randolph is so angry!

Glancing at Liu Xiu...forget it.

He wants to beat the Sonics violently, beat the Sonics to vent his anger!
……

……

At 7:58 p.m., the Trail Blazers' home game against the Sonics is about to start.

Liu Xiu came to the technology table to apply the magnesium powder, and saw Ray Allen carefully rubbing the magnesium powder evenly on some parts of the palm.

Seeing Liu Xiu looking at him, Ray Allen said: "Every pre-match preparation for the game is equally important. Like shooting a basketball, you have to know where your hands are exerting force, and know the dryness, humidity, and friction you like when you shoot. .”

"Thank you, I understand." Liu Xiu was very surprised.

The Trail Blazers and the Sonics have played against each other three times before, one preseason game and two regular season games. Ray Allen played two of them. In the preseason game, Ray Allen looked gloomy throughout the game. Hurricane's 3+ in a single game hammered the Trail Blazers.

In the second match, Ray Allen was out of breath after a while.

In the third match, Ray Allen missed due to injury.

This time, like a gentleman who is friendly to the rising star.

However, although Ray Allen said about the importance of chalk, let Liu Xiu prepare to think about it, and the three-point kings of this era have said so, so it must be useful.

But seemingly friendly, Liu Xiu felt that Ray Allen had a feeling of repelling others thousands of miles away.

Even if it's Garnett, even if this guy is looking for a draw, Liu Xiu can at least have some understanding of Garnett.

But after several meetings, Liu Xiu didn't know anything about Ray Allen...

Ray Allen put on his chalk and came to the court. Looking at his starting teammates tonight, his heart didn't fluctuate at all, but he wanted to laugh.

Luke Ridnour, Brent Barry, Lewis, Calvin Booth.

The 8 main players of the Sonics, Ray Allen, Lewis, Ronald Murray, Radmanovich, Brent Barry, Antonio Daniels, Jerome James, are actually very strong .

When the eight main players are all in order, the Supersonic team has a record of 8 wins and 15 losses, which is a level that can hit 7 wins.

However, there are only 8 games this season in which these 22 players played at the same time. In most cases, two or three of them are absent at the same time, and the two offensive cores of Ray Allen and Brent Barry are often absent.

As a result, they played 15 wins and 7 losses with a neat lineup, and 10 wins and 26 losses when the lineup was not neat. Now they have a record of 25 wins and 33 losses, ranking behind the Warriors and third from the bottom in the West.

Tonight, Brent Barry is injured and can play, but Antonio Daniels and Jerome James are injured, and the main substitute Vitaly Potapanko at the center position is also injured.

To put it simply, Ray Allen's mentality now is-to accept his fate.

Objectively speaking, Ray Allen’s mentality is good, and his playing is more reasonable. He has averaged 4.7 assists per game, a career high, and is ranked behind Iverson, Kobe, and McGrady. He is known as the league’s fourth-best shooting guard. , This season's performance is slightly better than Carter's.

On Liu Xiu's side, imitate Ray Allen's example, and finely spread the chalk on the most callused part of the palm. He is not as experienced as Ray Allen, but experience comes from trying. Just do what you say.

When he came to the field, the system prompt came, and he made a choice.

"The great magician:
...

Opponent: Ray Allen, characteristic conversion talent: quick shot (incomplete), bonus effect: 10% faster catch and shoot. "

This is the third time to copy this, and it is another talent bonus with stronger strength and stronger effect.

Starting with Liu Xiu are Ruben Patterson, Travis Outlaw, Zach Randolph and Dale Davis.

It was obvious that the outlaw fanatics were extremely nervous.

What was even more tense was Miles and Harrington on the bench. The chief assistant had talked to the outlaw fanatic anyway, which gave him some basic confidence. The coaching staff didn't care about these two at all.

At 8 p.m., the referee blew the whistle to start the game and threw the ball into the air. Veteran Dale Davis beat Calvin Booth to win the jump ball, and the Blazers went first.

When Liu Xiu advanced, he glanced at the opponent's center Calvin Booth, who was once known as the most talented genius in blocking shots.

弹跳出色，封盖嗅觉敏锐，曾打出过每48分钟6次盖帽的封盖效率，00-01赛季二年级的他场均打16分钟拿到2次盖帽。

It's just very brittle. He has been absent for more than half of the season for 4 consecutive seasons, and he still suffers from back injuries, push-ups, and foot injuries. He is under 28 and can't dance anymore.

But Liu Xiu's deepest impression on this guy is that he looks a bit like a little blacksmith on the west coast, more like that big star who will go bankrupt due to the subprime mortgage crisis in three or four years.

On the first attack of the opening, Randolph caught the ball and dug.

Hit Lewis!It's a pity not to chisel it.

Randolph faced up to the frame in singles, forced Lewis, and missed a throw to the basket.

With Liu Xiu's rush to contain Calvin Booth, Randolph made a self-throwing shot and scored a layup on the second offense!
When it came time for the Sonics to attack, Lewis fought back and made a long two-pointer with a pass from Luke Ridnour.

2 to 2 level!
Lewis's running ability is definitely the top in the league. He is not fast, but he has a good sense of running rhythm, which is a bit like Liu Xiu. He is very good at using his teammates when looking for shooting opportunities for himself.

Anyway, Randolph was fainted.

When the Trail Blazers attacked, Liu Xiu fell low and relied on Ridnour to catch the ball and play back.

Ridnor lowered his center of gravity and carried Liu Xiu with all his strength. After entering the NBA for so long, he has become a bit thicker and has a little confidence... "Ah"...

When Liu Xiu ran into it, Ridnour screamed!
Liu Xiu rolled Ridnor to the line of the reasonable collision zone and made a layup!
The bottom line fans were covering their eyes and laughing, they couldn't even look at it, they felt so sorry for the opposing point guard.

It is really big to defend Liu Xiu with a small guard who wears shoes of 188 cm and weighs more than 80 kg!

In fact, this is really not the case. Ridnour is just trying to guide Liu Xiu to turn around and attack, creating opportunities for Calvin Booth or Brent Barry to defend.

When they discussed it, they speculated that it could be done, but they didn't expect that Brent Barry and Calvin Booth didn't even have a chance to make up defense!

Liu Xiu's strength is obviously stronger than that of the last fight, and his back hitting skills are also better.

When it came time for the Sonics to attack, Ray Allen singled Ruben Patterson, broke through and scored, Lewis received the ball from the wing and then passed, Ridnor received the ball and made a three-pointer...Liu Xiu was blocked by Brent Barry and made an extrajudicial The madman couldn't switch defenses in time, and Ridnour had a big gap to catch the ball... Unfortunately, he didn't score.

Liu Xiu moved inside when Ridnour threw the ball and grabbed the defensive rebound before Calvin Booth.

When it came time for the Trail Blazers to attack, Liu Xiu was defended by Ray Allen, who received a high standard of treatment. Liu Xiu lobbed the ball to Randolph, who easily overpowered Lewis and scored two points again.

The score is 6 to 2!

Immediately afterwards, Ray Allen came by himself, dribbled the ball outside and made a cold arrow, and hit a three-pointer!

Three points is really a good thing, 5 to 6, the Sonics narrowed the point difference to 1 point.

The Trail Blazers were not in a hurry, and continued to play positional battles slowly, refusing to play fast break games with the Supersonics, a team that is full of three-pointers from positions 1 to 4.

Randolph backs up in the low post, Liu Xiu cuts to the middle, runs around Randolph and Lewis, Randolph splits the ball, and Calvin Booth shrinks and pinches Randolph, Liu Xiu diverts part of his attention , but also pay attention to Randolph's singles, ignoring the middle, the extrajudicial lunatic cuts in to catch Randolph's ball and wants to buckle...

Calvin Booth prevented the dunk from the extrajudicial madman, but fouled, the extrajudicial madman made two free throws, 8 to 5, the Trail Blazers are very stable!

Randolph played much more unrestrained than in the past few games, going all out to release his close-range face-up and back-up attack power!

During the 6-game streak, Randolph had to pay too much attention. Not only did he have to consider the main stage, but he also had to support the lower limit of the rotation's strength for a long time.

Now, he dares to play like he did before the All-Star break.

There is a boss in the second team - Raheem!

Raheem's performance in the last game allowed Liu Xiu and Randolph to play more freely and confidently in the starting stage.
