Healing Basketball

Chapter 229 229. Triple Double in Three Quarters! (The 5th update asks for a monthly ticket)

The previous style of play of the Kings was also team priority, and the core was constantly switching. This is an important feature of the Princeton system.

But there is always a focus.

And whoever was in poor form that night tried their best to avoid the situation where they were the main attack point, and the person in better condition would attack more.

When playing in turn, at first it looked like the same thing, but the problem was exposed when playing.

There will always be those who are not in good shape. In the coordination, there will always be the unexpected situation after Webber was blocked, which will cause dissatisfaction and affect the "rotating core" style of play they thought about.

A little bit of disadvantage is like a snowball...

When Liu Xiugang guessed this situation, he couldn't believe it.

This is too much!

But after he was convinced, he didn't feel strange anymore.

If this is not the case, when Bibby, Christie, Peja, Brad Miller, Divac and others are not affected by injuries after Weber's comeback, and the tactical coordination looks so good, how can the Kings play against Weber? 15 wins and 6 losses in 9 games since his comeback?

In reality, there will be more wonderful situations than expected.

The kings in front of us are!

But what does that have to do with his warden?

Feel sorry for the other party?
It won't be too late to have such emotions after the opponent is eliminated from the playoffs.

Liu Xiu confirmed that her guess was correct. After being astonished, she stopped caring about it and devoted herself to the competition!
In this case, if you lose, it will be shameful!
After scoring 7 points at the start, Liu Xiu was heavily guarded by the Kings.

The Kings use the method of "taking turns as the core" to ease the conflicts within the team, which is actually very useful. At first, the Kings were unwilling to even help each other on defense. After this method, the defensive end has recovered.

It is true that after Webber came back, the Kings’ defense was better than before. Before that, they lost 99 points per game and became an offensive team. In the last few games, the Kings lost 94 points per game, ranking No.12 in the league. , Counting the brisk offensive and defensive rhythm, it is already very good, and the efficiency has reached the tenth place in the league.

This is really difficult for the Trail Blazers who are currently pressing the rhythm of play.

Even if the Kings are this virtuous, they rely on their stars to be strong, rely on a good defensive foundation, and a tacit defensive cooperation. It is not easy for the Trail Blazers to win.

However, after Liu Xiu started with 7 points, the Kings defense was disrupted by him!
In the next time, Liu Xiu scored 5 points and 2 assists.

靠着首节单节12分2板2助攻1抢断的表现，刘秀率队打出了27比23的单节比分！
The Kings have no problems on the defensive end, but the contradictions on the offensive end have entered the contradiction snowball mode from the beginning of every game, and the problem is getting bigger and bigger.

In the second quarter, the Trail Blazers scored 9 to 21 in the first 14 minutes, opening the point difference to 11 points in one fell swoop!
But in the last two minutes of the first half, the Kings returned a wave of 9-3, chasing the score to 23-24 in a single quarter.

After halftime, the Trail Blazers led the Kings by 51 points 46 to 5.

Although still maintaining a good lead, Liu Xiu and his teammates realized one thing - the Kings team is not completely rotten, there is still a dangerous stage!
In the nearly 3-minute game time at the end of the second quarter, Liu Xiu used trash talk to stimulate Bibby or Peja, but he is old, and the regular time will be affected. When everyone thinks it is time to fight, his trash talk effect is not that great.

But it doesn't matter, driven by him, the teammates' state tonight has been displayed!
……

Back from the intermission, under Morris Cheeks' threatening emphasis, under Randolph's spitting urging, under the awe of the warden's smiling devil... the prison team players put the first half The contempt that had gradually accumulated in the field was thrown away.

Go all out and play against the Kings!
However, the Trail Blazers are looking too high on the Kings after all.

During halftime, Webb tried to rally his teammates as the boss ... and then the fight broke out again.

If they could adjust so easily, they wouldn't be 6 wins and 9 losses.

They are people!Live people!A person with rich and delicate emotions!

No one can stand the words and practices of the Kings management. Peja and Brad Miller are on the opposite side of Weber, and Bibby also has this tendency.

The Kings' defense is still difficult to deal with, and they all have the bottom line of playing-professionalism.

However, the offensive performance declined and the missed shots still gave the Trail Blazers a chance.

Maurice Cheeks seized the opportunity. Liu Xiu, Little Flying Squirrel, Outlaws, Raheem, and Randolph played together, betting that the Kings' outside players could not make shots in the confrontation + infighting, and played a counterattack !

This time, bet right!

刘秀单节9分5板4助攻，帮助开拓者队打出了34比20的单节比分！
After three quarters, the score came to 85 to 66, and the Trail Blazers led the Kings by 19 points!
靠着上半场的16分5板7助攻，刘秀三节打了32分钟，拿到25分10板11助攻3抢断1盖帽，三节打卡下班！
When Liu Xiu was replaced, the fans went crazy!

During March Madness, Liu Xiu stole a lot of the NCAA's limelight.

But after March Madness, they naturally felt that Liu Xiu's highlight month was over.

They are looking forward to the last month, when Liu Xiu can beat Anthony and become the number one contender for the best rookie in the Western Conference.

They felt a lot of pressure. Anthony averaged 5+ per game for 20 consecutive months, and even averaged 25+ per game in a single month. His average performance of 23.4 points per game so far this season is already stronger than that of Iverson in his rookie season.

Anthony also won the Rookie of the Month for two consecutive months in January and February, surpassing Liu Xiu's twice.

So there is no blind optimism among Trail Blazers fans.

But Liu Xiu's performance tonight has boosted the confidence of the Trail Blazers fans!
Triple double in three quarters!

Who else!
……

Liu Xiu didn't play in the final quarter, and the difference came.

In the final quarter, the Kings had fewer core players on the court. Before, the four core players guaranteed at least three players to be on the court, but the final quarter was almost garbage time. Only Bibby and Brad Miller played.

But the Kings' defense is still very good, which is the foundation for the Kings to stand in the Wild West so far.

The Trail Blazers used Flying Squirrel, Wesley Persson, Harrington, Myers, and Ruben Bontje to hold the lineup in the final quarter, scoring only 16 points in a single quarter.

They played very easily when Liu Xiu was there, but when they led the team themselves, Liu Xiu, Randolph, and Raheem were not there. Little Flying Squirrel was a little troubled by Bibby, and there was a man named Gerald- Wallace's third-year water fountain keeper gives an unprepared Harrington a hard time...

This Gerald Wallace, let a small owner of a newly established team who took a look at the Trail Blazers game on a whim shine in his eyes!
However, there were no surprises.

Although the Kings scored 25 to 16 in the final quarter, relying on the lead in the first three quarters, the Trail Blazers still defeated the Kings 101 to 91, won the 54th victory of the season, and improved their record to 54 wins and 20 losses!
When the final whistle sounded, Liu Xiu was reminded by the system that she got her 11th S-level score this season!
The fans at the scene were extremely excited, and they were still shouting Liu Xiu's nickname after the game.

The reporters came very quickly, and there was also a live broadcast on the court station tonight, so the interview opportunity was naturally theirs.

It was old friend Su Qun who came tonight and said, "Jess, congratulations on becoming the second rookie in NBA history to get 10 triple-doubles, and also the No.1 in modern basketball. How do you feel now?"

Liu Xiu called out to the experts!

Coming up is 'History', 'No.1'.

He is a restrained and humble person, and said modestly: "Thank you, I am also very happy."

That's it!Well, Su Qun got used to it, and continued to ask: "Your form tonight is still very good, continuing the performance in March, do you think you can continue to maintain this form?"

Liu Xiu responded, "Mr. Su, I haven't continued my performance in March."

Su Qun asked this question because he wanted to bring up the next topic—the competition for the best rookie.

But Liu Xiu didn't play by the routine!
He admitted it, and was led by Liu Xiu to ask, "Didn't you continue your performance in March?"

"Yes, March has turned the page, a new month has come, and today is just the beginning.

Next, keep your eyes open, Showtime! "

……

……

Liu Xiu's 10th triple-double in his rookie season, and he boasted that this is just the beginning, so people will keep their eyes open to see his next performance.

No matter how good the performance of the game just finished, such rhetoric is released when the stars are shining at the end of the season, and the Blazers have such a difficult schedule ahead.

6号客场打森林狼队、8号客场打掘金队、10号客场打马刺队、11号主场打勇士队、13号主场打湖人队、15号和16号主客场交替打太阳队、18号客场打湖人队。

There are 13 games in 8 days, the schedule is tight, there are two back-to-back games, and the opponent is the favorite for the championship in three games...Under such circumstances, Liu Xiu said such words, which naturally aroused a lot of public opinion, and many people were waiting to see a good show .

In people's eyes, Liu Xiu is not stable at all. After being ridiculed and got a triple-double in three quarters, he drifted away.

As a result, the Blazers fans were tricked by their warden again. Their trust in Liu Xiu has been blinded, and they struggled to line up with various netizens on the Internet...

I'm happy that the major media and leagues continue to pay more attention to Liu Xiu!
March is the most torturous time for editors and writers who mainly report on the NBA. Whatever they write, it is difficult to grab the topic from the NCAA March Madness.

But Liu Xiu's matter, they don't need to work hard, as long as they report it, there will be heat!

No, in two days, it will be the final of the NCAA basketball championship.

Emeka Okafor's University of Connecticut, the favorite of the No. [-] pick, and the Georgia Institute of Technology, which owns Will Bynum, Luke Sinchel, Jarrett Jack and other talented NBA stars with NBA prospects, meet in the finals. The most important thing in North American basketball.

But Liu Xiu's three-quarter triple-double and bold words grabbed the page!
No matter how the public opinion is set up, he started to officially contact professional basketball in the fall of 2002, entered the NBA lottery zone within one year, and became a popular new star in the industry in less than two years.

In college basketball, Liu Xiu is a legend!

Liu Xiuzhao stole the limelight in the NCAA finals!

9/23 plus update.
