Healing Basketball

Chapter 233 233. The warden and the leader of the mining bandits! (The 4th update asks for a monthly ticket)

At 4:8 p.m. on April 6, the Trail Blazers and Nuggets had already entered the stadium at the Pepsi Center Arena in Denver.

Liu Xiu and Anthony have a good relationship, and the fans at the scene are quite friendly to the Trail Blazers.

However, the fans looked at Liu Xiu and Anthony chatting in front of the technical stage, why did they feel that the warden was sweeter?
Anthony's smile tonight is so bitter!

Anthony's heart is really bitter!

The recovery ability of the big brother on the opposite side is too buggy!
He was so tired last night, and he was still on the plateau, but now it seems that this brother is the one with the best mental and physical condition in the opposing team!

Who made Liu Xiu's simulated training mode have the effect of adapting to the local climate?

But Liu Xiu hasn’t noticed this himself. The locals in Portland must be used to the weather. Other cities go to twice a year at most...Los Angeles may go 3 to 4 times, but it’s still very little. It’s really cool. Hard to notice.

The tears in Anthony's heart flowed for a while, and he didn't care much about it.

He had nothing to lose, he just walked the streets of Denver, and walking on the streets with Liu Xiu, he really felt like he was back in college.

But, when will Liu Xiu drink him in the preseason game and cause him to be hangover and collapse the next day?
As for the fact that he went to find the wine first and sneaked out to drink, he didn't admit it.

Also, in the game between the Blazers and Timberwolves the day before yesterday, Liu Xiu actually scored 36 points. On the 30th of last month, the Blazers even won!

Garnett didn't get beaten by him, so why was he beaten by Garnett's fancy drop hammer?

But the guy in front of him can rely on the overall strength of the team to be stronger and better luck to win a game when many insiders of the Timberwolves are injured...

God is not fair!

Anthony's resentment is full, and his desire to win this game tonight is also full.

Liu Xiu found out about the news—the community game has not yet started, but after entering the game state, it has already provided hundreds of healing points.

Anthony, Garnett, and Kobe are the three auspicious treasures in Liu Xiu's mind!

……

The game is about to start. After copying the double-back bonus of Randolph + Miller, Liu Xiu led his teammates to the field.

The Trail Blazers sent a starting combination of Liu Xiu, Ruben Patterson, outlaws, Randolph, and Dale Davis.

McDyess is still unable to play tonight, and he didn't go out with the team for this wave of three consecutive trips. As a veteran, it is more important to stay in Portland and rest.

There was a live broadcast of this game, Liu Xiu VS Anthony, which was the most popular rookie duel at the end of the regular season this season.

McDyess, who was watching the live broadcast at home, now has no nostalgia for the Nuggets. The warden rekindled his love for basketball when he played in this arena last time, and now he sees this team again. , that is, an ordinary former club.

The Nuggets sent a starting combination of Andre Miller, Voshan Leonard, Anthony, Nene, and Camby.

When Camby and Dale Davis came to the center circle, the TV commentators were talking about Camby's career milestone -- reaching 70 games in a single season for the first time in his career.

After the players of the two teams came to the field, the fans gave enthusiastic cheers and applause. The fans felt very strong fighting spirit from the players of the two teams.

The leader of the mine bandit and the warden have a friendly relationship, so the relationship between the two teams is naturally good.

But on the court, the competitive spirit and fighting spirit of the players of the two teams are extremely strong.

Compared with the previous three matches, the importance of this time is completely different.

Rankings, playoff spots, the battle for the best rookie... There is also a possibility that the Nuggets may meet the Trail Blazers in the first round!

目前掘金队打了76场比赛了，43胜33负，暂列西部第八，领先40胜35负的火箭队2.5个胜场。

The Trail Blazers are 54 wins and 21 losses, and still maintain the possibility of competing for the first place in the Western Conference.

Even if only No.8 enters the playoffs, the Nuggets, a youth team, want to go further.

Who made them the first Black Eight team in NBA history.

At 6:30 p.m., the referee blew the start whistle and threw the ball into the air. Camby beat Dale Davis for a jump ball and the Nuggets went first.

Anthony catches the ball and singles out the lawless madman, takes a long two-point shot with the ball and retreats, and kicks off the game!

Offensive and defensive transition, the Trail Blazers made the first attack, Liu Xiu hit Andre Miller with his back in the low post, turned around and shot a jumper...

Camby made it to the edge of the three-second zone, but Liu Xiu turned over and left the three-second zone. Camby didn't go out, turned around and grabbed the rebound...and saw the ball fall into the frame.

After one season, the teammates didn't understand and got used to it.

Defensive rebounding Camby has done a good job, averaging 8.4 defensive rebounds per game, with Garnett, Duncan, Nowitzki and others.

When it came to the Nuggets' offense, Anthony tried a ball at the beginning, and it felt good, so he naturally took the lead in the charge.

As a singles star, in good condition, singles scoring is the simplest and most effective way.

In the opening stage, Anthony performed well in singles. In 5 rounds, he made 3 of 2 shots, scored 4 points and 1 assist, and led the team to start with 7 points.

If you can use one person to interact with the opponent's team, Anthony's main attack in this wave of singles will definitely be profitable.

However, the Trail Blazers are also single-point offense!Moreover, this person is not Randolph, but Liu Xiu!

Relying on the advantage of low-post offense and being sure that in the contract year, Camby will not sacrifice data for defense to leave the three-second zone. Liu Xiu started from the low post and made 2 of 2 shots, plus 2 of 1 free throws. Two assists.

Liu Xiu started with 5 points and 2 assists, helping the Trail Blazers lead 9-7!

The Nuggets called a timeout first!
After a wave of confrontation, Anthony, who was full of confidence, was dumbfounded.

He knew that Liu Xiu had developed his back to a very good level in less than a year, but he still had absolute confidence in his personal ability.

If he really drives the team with his personal ability, Anthony will beat Liu Xiu with confidence.

But the situation is not the same as expected!
Temporarily increased to 92 low post, plus Randolph + Miller's double back bonus, facing insiders are contract year data master Camby and second-year Nene, which is similar to playing Garnett the night before yesterday. For example, Liu Xiu's low-back play was very smooth!

In the opening performance, Liu Xiu overwhelmed Anthony!
……

Back from the timeout, the Nuggets made defensive adjustments.

Nene, a second-year player, played more minutes than Camby...

This can show that Nuggets coach Jeff Bzdelik is not so obsessed with statistics.

Usually okay, once in trouble, Camby was replaced, Chris - Anderson and Nene's Twin Towers play.

No personnel adjustments were made on the outside line, but Anthony was asked to defend Liu Xiu.

The Blazers didn't have a rotation or a starting lineup.

比赛重新开始后，掘金队打出了一波6比3的反扑，以13比12领先开拓者队1分进入官方暂停阶段。

The Nuggets used Anthony to defend Liu Xiu, limiting Liu Xiu's low-post play, and also relied on replacing Camby with a more hard-working Birdman to strengthen the defense and caught the Blazers by surprise.

However, it is not difficult to deal with this. After the official suspension came back, the Trail Blazers sent a combination of Liu Xiu, Derek Anderson, Raheem, Randolph, and Spantinia.

Just like Liu Xiu, who has reached the level of a first-class star, played the Nuggets guard line for fun. Raheem came off the bench, and Anthony went to defend Liu Xiu and directly blocked Liu Xiu's idea of ​​going to the low post. Any outside line of the Nuggets is like playing for fun.

In the second half of the first quarter, Raheem caught the ball and attacked the frame + necessary singles, coupled with Liu Xiu's auxiliary control and Randolph's rush, and scored a score of 17 to 12 in the half quarter.

After the first quarter, the Trail Blazers overtook the Nuggets 29 to 25 and entered the intermission by 4 points!
……

Anthony performed very well with 9 points, 2 rebounds and 2 assists in the first quarter, but was easily overtaken by the opponent.

Nuggets coach Bzdelik can't help it. He has been refusing to fight with the Trail Blazers defensively, trying to reduce confrontation, and use regional flanking and switching defenses to deal with the Trail Blazers.

But the Trail Blazers will do everything they can and use the stars alone.

Competing for the number of top players, the Trail Blazers can't beat the Timberwolves' three-headed monster, but they can't eat big fish, and they can eat small shrimps. The Nuggets can't beat the star group of Raheem + Randolph + Little Mouse.

Coupled with Liu Xiu, who is so strong that he can rely on the team to play better than Randolph, Bzdelik has no choice. After the start of the second quarter, he chose to grind confrontation and defend!

When it comes to defense, he is definitely one of the best in the league. If it weren't for the starting center Jin Yuqi and his failure, he could do better.

It's a pity that the Nuggets' management believes in Camby's data more than Bzdelik's professional ability, just like they are only willing to give 3 million dollars for three years, which is only 300% higher than Bzdelik's current assistant coaching contract. The one-year salary contract of Wanmei knife is the same.

But as far as the Nuggets' current lineup is concerned, Bzdelik's defensive adjustments have been done well enough, so good that he feels hairy, feels that someone is staring at him, and he turns his head to look... 屮!

There are really a group of people staring at him!The opposite coaching staff!

The question mark in Bzdelik's head - what are they staring at me for?What do you seem to be discussing?What conspiracy?
……

The Nuggets followed the hard-working style of play and did better than the last match, and better than the Trail Blazers expected.

This must be due to Bzdelik.

But in the case of having lost the opportunity, the Nuggets were forced to follow the Trail Blazers to play defense, and they had actually lost the initiative.

Under this kind of game rhythm, whether it is the Trail Blazers vs. Nuggets, or Liu Xiu vs. Anthony, they are more used to it, and it is easier to score. Even if it is just a little bit, as the game progresses, the difference will gradually be reflected.

The biggest difference lies in Liu Xiu!
Liu Xiu's personal performance was far better than the Nuggets expected, just like the Timberwolves did not expect Liu Xiu to be in such a good state the day before yesterday.

The Timberwolves have the strength to deal with Liu Xiu's rampage, but the Nuggets don't have this ability!
