Chapter 438 438. How Pingdingshan Was Built (7500 words)
On the second day after playing against the Grizzlies, Liu Xiu came to Dallas with the team. In the evening, he came to the home of King Silver Horn and was warmly received by King Silver Horn.

The silver horn king still lives in the apartment he bought in 1999. In recent years, housing prices have skyrocketed, and many stars have invested in real estate speculators, such as the two superstars wearing the No. 21 jersey owned by the famous agent Banks. Superstars, according to legend, have invested more than 3000 million US dollars.

But Silver Horn King did not. He planned to buy a big house after he got the contract extension in 2002, but he has been waiting. At that time, the housing price just started to skyrocket. He felt that it would definitely fall back. Let’s wait, it will pass in two or three years Yes, but the house price is getting more and more fierce... Buying it now is a heartache. When he first entered the NBA in 1998, he saw a house with more than 300 million dollars, and now it costs tens of millions of dollars.

Tonight, the two of them talked about buying a house again. When they learned that Liu Xiu got a large piece of land from the Portland City Hall at a very cheap price and planned to repair the house, King Yinjiao's eyes lit up, saying that he also wanted to buy a house. Going to try to see if the Dallas government will sell him cheap land.

Liu Xiu immediately became energetic: "Big-King, what kind of house do you want to build? I can design it for you!"

He is familiar with this matter!They also talked about the "Paul Allen" just now, but he forcibly stopped the topic and talked about buying a house.

King Yinjiao was very surprised: "Will you still design houses?"

Decoration design is also design, right?Liu Xiu took it for granted: "Of course, I'm a postgraduate student."

Speaking of which, Liu Xiu took out the pen and paper that was always in his backpack. After he knew how to draw, he would take these things with him, and occasionally saw something and wanted to draw it.

You can take pictures, but what you take is actually different from what you see. What you take is an objective fact, but what you see with your eyes often has some 'filters' of one kind or another.

What you draw must be based on what you see with your eyes.

Seeing that Liu Xiu drew some lines on the paper with a few swipes, and a few strokes in the middle of the drawing drew the outline of a house's bird's-eye view. It looked very professional, and King Yinjiao believed it.

The warden is really a graduate student, and he really knows how to draw. King Yinjiao thinks that the warden's design should be no problem.

The Silver Horn King entered the imagination mode: "I want to build a big house, and there must be a tennis court inside."

Liu Xiu nodded: "Oh, yes, I remember you used to play tennis, but because you grew taller, you could only play basketball."

King Silver Horn was very pleasantly surprised, the warden actually knew that he used to play tennis!He never said that!Is this the legendary two-way appreciation?Love love love!
But he still wanted to correct the warden’s statement: “It’s not that I can’t play basketball. My mother is a professional basketball player. At the age of 12, he won the championship of the junior group of the German National Tennis Competition..."

Suddenly realizing that he was a little too embarrassing, King Silver Horn quickly changed the subject: "By the way, besides the tennis court, I also want a swimming pool for official competitions, the one with a length of 100 meters!"

Liu Xiuzheng slandered King Yinjiao for being such a bad fart, and was distracted by King Yinjiao's words: "Why do you want such a big swimming pool?"

"I participated in activities with Duncan during the All-Star Weekend. He bragged that he is the best swimmer in the NBA. I still have a little confidence in my swimming. I want to beat him head-on! I won the German National Swimming Competition when I was 11 years old. The champion of the junior group! I am the best swimmer in the NBA!"

"You were really versatile when you were young..."

"Ah? Thank you!"

"..." Who praised you!Liu Xiu was speechless for a while, and asked, "If you want to beat him, you can just fight with him directly?"

"I competed with him, and I lost."

"Ok?"

"But I think it must be because I haven't swam for too long, and I'm rusty. When I have my own swimming pool, I will practice every day, regain the strength of winning the championship, and compete with him again!"

King Yinjiao looked full of confidence, Liu Xiu was speechless for a while.

Design first!

Anyway, it’s just painting, don’t care if it’s reasonable or not, anyway, the pictures drawn by the excellent painter of his warden are very good-looking, and that’s enough. The more King Yinjiao looks at it, the more he likes it. I am happy. I originally wanted to draw a design drawing of a big house. While I was drawing it, it felt like it was about the size of a park. Liu Xiu calculated it. Compared with Paul Allen's big manor in Denver, it was not too small. where it goes.

The warden's drawing level is really good, and he has basic design skills. The layout and composition are pleasing to the eye. He finished the last stroke of the request made by King Yinjiao, and the other party snatched the design away. .

The King Yinjiao liked the design drawings he personally participated in, and said, "I've decided! I must build such a manor!"

Liu Xiu, who finished drawing the picture, originally thought that the game was over.

The co-author, King Silver Horn, really wants to fix it!

Needless to say, it's quite a sense of accomplishment.

Suddenly, the warden had an immature idea and asked, "Big-King, have you thought of a name for your future home?"

"Does the family need a name?"

"Of course, in life, there must be a sense of ritual!"

Sense of ceremony!This word, King Yinjiao sounds very lofty.

However, after thinking for a while, he scratched his head and said, "Warden, you read a lot, can you help me choose a name? I thought of several names, but none of them sound good."

This is a good feeling, so you don't need to use your brain to veto the name that King Silver Horn wants.

Liu Xiu looked pensive, opened his eyes wide as if suddenly enlightened, and said, "Big-King, we have it! It's called Pingdingshan!"

"Pingdingshan?" King Yinjiao barely imitated the sound of the word, and asked curiously: "Is this a Chinese name? Why did you choose this?"

"Because the place where you live in Journey to the West is called this."

King Silver Horn immediately decided: "That's it!"

……

……

On March 3, the Trail Blazers came to the American Airlines Center.

After a day of preparations, at 7:[-] p.m., the Mavericks will start a confrontation in the away game.

Last night, King Yinjiao was already very enthusiastic towards Liu Xiu at home, and today he is even more enthusiastic!
The Trail Blazers are fully prepared for the battle. The two-forward defense of extrajudicial lunatics + Raheem has been prepared for the Silver Horn King.

But what should Silver Horn King do if he scored two three-pointers in a row against the defense at the beginning of the game?
The Silver Horn King announced at the beginning of the night that he has continued the hot state of the past two games!
On the 11th, the Mavericks beat the Cavaliers 117 to 86, and the Silver Horn King scored 39 points; on the 13th, the day before yesterday, the Mavericks played 57 to 65 after three quarters, relying on the Silver Horn King. With a score of 15 to 28 in a single quarter, in the end, the Mavericks relied on Nowitzki's 13 points in a single game to complete a major reversal with 31 to 85.

Silver Horn King, who scored 70 points in two games, was so arrogant today that he almost shouted at the warden with a gourd: I call you, do you dare to agree?

The Silver Horn King is in good personal condition, and the team performance of the Mavericks is also very good.

Driven by the Silver Horn King scoring two three-point singles in a row, the Mavericks got off to a 10-4 start, and the Trail Blazers called a timeout early!
Back on the bench, Liu Xiu took a deep breath to relieve the pressure.

It can be clearly seen that the Mavericks' infinite singles tactics have been polished better, at least half a step stronger than the Mavericks at the beginning of the season!
You must know that the Mavericks at that time were already a team between the 55+ win level and the 60 win level. If you improve by half a level, you will be at the 60 win level!After the All-Star Weekend, the Mavericks' record is 10 wins and 3 losses, and they have indeed played 60+ wins.

After playing a few rounds with the Mavericks personally, Liu Xiu reckoned that the mad scientist might have to resign?

The old Nelson, who had many conflicts with Cuban, still held his breath and did not hesitate to leave. It was purely because of the Silver Horn King and Avery Johnson. Before he left, he had to help Avery Johnson bear the pressure and let Ivor Lee Johnson can complete the transformation of the Mavericks' play style without pressure. It can be seen that the old Nelson really likes the Silver Horn King and Avery Johnson.

However, since this is the case, why would the old Nelson go to the Warriors to form a lineup to attack the Mavericks in the future, nailing the Mavericks to the shame of the Black Eight?

But, if these two things were done by a mad scientist, Liu Xiu would feel very normal.

...

Perhaps madness is a contagious thing. During this timeout, the already bold coach of the Trail Blazers also went crazy tonight!
Maurice Cheeks directly dispatched a combination of Flying Squirrel, Liu Xiu, Raheem, Randolph, and McDyess to take down the first two high school outlaws and the parallel import champion, and maximize the offensive firepower !

That is to say, Van Horn was not brought out by the 4 consecutive guests this time, otherwise he would definitely be replaced at this time.

Maurice Cheeks is right to adjust this time. Terry, Finley, Josh Howard, Silver Horn King, together with Stackhouse, Daniels, and Devin Harris on the bench, With Ratliff and Dampier taking turns to eat cakes, the Mavericks' offense took off tonight!
In the rest of the first quarter, the Mavericks scored 28 points, and scored 38 points in a single quarter in the first quarter!
开拓者队方面，得亏是莫里斯-奇克斯开局打了2分钟就叫暂停换上纯进攻阵容，靠着打小牛队就来劲的屠夫在后面10分钟时间里拿到13分2助攻，这10分钟时间也拿到了28分。

At the end of the first quarter, the Trail Blazers and the Mavericks scored 32 to 38, biting the score.

At this point in the game, there is really no good way, it depends on which side has a stronger offense and better continuity!
In the second quarter, the Trail Blazers and the Mavericks scored 27 to 28. After halftime, the Trail Blazers trailed the Mavericks by 59 points 66 to 7; in the third quarter, the Trail Blazers finally gained the upper hand. Liu Xiu scored 10 points in a single quarter. The Trail Blazers scored 28 to 24 against the Mavericks in this quarter, narrowing the point difference to 3 points.

But at the end of the quarter, the Mavericks' most recent invincible fourth quarter came... Terry made 4 of 4 shots in a single quarter, plus 4 of 3 free throws, scored 11 points, Finley also had 9 points, and the two scored 20 in a single quarter point!
The final word was that at 11 minutes and 26 seconds into the final quarter, Silver Horn King, under the interference of Rahim, hit a three-pointer against the defense, and opened the 4-point difference to 7 points, and the score was 116. than 109!

Next, Liu Xiu threw a three-pointer directly after the pick-and-roll and made it, but the Mavericks still maintained a 4-point lead. After Liu Xiu hit a three-pointer, the Trail Blazers imposed a tactical foul on Ratliff, and Ratliff stepped forward. At the free throw line, he was very relaxed and made both free throws.

With 11 seconds left, the Trail Blazers called a timeout and played a tactic. They didn't play well. The purpose was too obvious, which was to throw a three-pointer. In the end, Liu Xiu still had defense in front of him after receiving the ball. On the neck of the basket, it sounded the death knell of tonight's game. For myself... Silver Horn King protected the defensive rebound, hugged it, and stopped playing. The time is less than 8 seconds, so don't worry about illegal mistakes.

The Trail Blazers didn't grab it either, waiting for the time to end.

At 9:15 p.m., the final whistle blew.

银角大王今晚延续了最近疯狂的表现，16投10中、其中三分球6中5，加上11中11的罚球，狂飙36分7板3助攻！加上特里的23分、芬利的28分，小牛队以118比112击败开拓者队，报了赛季初的一箭之仇！
刘秀今晚的表现也很好了，20投11中，其中三分球8中3，加上8中8的罚球，拿到33分4板9助攻1抢断1盖帽，兰多夫的28分12板4助攻表现也非常好。

But the opponent's performance was really good.

Of course, if you lose, you will definitely not be convinced. The warden and the butcher are very unwilling now. The next time they play against the Mavericks, they will definitely gather enough energy to give each other a wave.

But right now, at the end of the game, none of that matters.

Liu Xiu looked at King Silver Horn who was celebrating wildly after completing his revenge, and he felt that he should receive the design fee for King Silver Horn's 'Pingdingshan' manor!
Too hot eyes!
……

……

Losing to the Mavericks, the Trail Blazers' record dropped to 46 wins and 17 losses, half a game behind the Mavericks' 47 wins and 17 losses.

However, the Trail Blazers are still ranked third, and the Mavericks are still fourth, because the Trail Blazers are the first in the Northwest Division. If the Mavericks want to enter the top three, they must surpass the current 48 wins and 15 losses of the Spurs.

The Trail Blazers did not leave Dallas on the second day of their game against the Mavericks and will stay in the city for another day.

Because there are two days of rest this time, there is no need to rush, and you can take a good rest.

Also, the Mavericks have back-to-back games tonight... This is not important, what is important is that the Mavericks' back-to-back opponents are the Spurs' opponents in the next game of the Trail Blazers!
Liu Xiu's activities today, he studied the video in the morning, and recharged his batteries in the afternoon...that is, he played CS and StarCraft with the butcher and the outlaws all afternoon. In the evening, Liu Xiu followed the coaching staff and some teammates to come again When I arrived at the American Airlines Center, this time I was sitting on the sidelines watching the game as a spectator.

After the players of the two teams entered the arena, the big screen shot was shown on the warden. The fans were very enthusiastic and well versed in hospitality, boos everywhere!

Liu Xiu felt honored to be booed every time he watched an away game, and the fans booed even louder.

Who made the Warden soar 40+ triple-doubles against the Mavericks at the beginning of the season?Even if they won yesterday, Mavericks fans will not forget this feud.

Duncan saw the warden being booed. This is the home of the Mavericks. Everyone is the opponent of the Mavericks. The opponent of the opponent is a friend... Do you want to go over and say hello?

I haven't talked to the warden for a long time, so go over and have a chat?Maybe they can build a good relationship, and they can chat next time they fight, without worrying about being beaten... Duncan decisively stepped in Liu Xiu's direction, but it was a bit late.

King Yinjiao saw the warden on the sidelines, so he rushed to the warden as if flying.

King Silver Horn said excitedly: "The warden, I asked Mark ... our boss Cuban, he thinks that if I apply to buy a piece of land to repair the house, the city hall will definitely agree. This matter is easier than I expected. "

Liu Xiu was not surprised at all: "Of course, Big-King, you are the star of the Mavericks and the most popular athlete in this city. If you want to build a house here, it means that you have no intention of changing teams. If the city hall If you disagree, your boss will also put pressure on it.

Moreover, if you build such a large house, you will spend money on manpower and material resources. This is creating job opportunities. "

"That's why! You are still the warden, you are smart."

"By the way, when you buy land, you have to choose the location carefully."

"Yes, Cuban also asked me to choose the address carefully. Don't be fooled by the people in the city hall. What kind of location do you think is good for the warden?"

"Of course it is closer to this arena, or a place with convenient transportation... It would be great if it was on a mountain."

"Why on the mountain?"

"Pingdingshan is actually the name of a mountain. King Yinjiao's home is on this mountain. If there is a small mountain, you can buy it, build a house on the top of the mountain, and change the name of the mountain to Pingdingshan... In the future, tourists from our country When you come to Dallas to play, your mountain will definitely become a popular attraction, countless fans will come to your door to take pictures, you may even be able to collect tickets..."

Although he didn't know how the topic got here, King Silver Horn's eyes lit up when he heard this.

Does he want to become a popular superstar?
Of course I do!
Buying a mountain, repairing the Pingdingshan Manor, changing the name of the mountain to Pingdingshan... King Yinjiao began to imagine a future full of popularity...

On the other side, Duncan watched King Yinjiao chatted with the warden for a long time and still didn't leave. The game was about to start, and he didn't have time to say hello... Shi Buddha was angry!

...

At 8 o'clock in the evening, the Mavericks played back-to-back games against the Spurs.

As a sideline onlooker watching two opponents slamming each other and admiring the duel between two super power forwards, Liu Xiu is full of expectations.

Enjoy the game first!As for researching opponents, leave it to the coaching staff!Watch the video tomorrow too...

However, King Yinjiao and Shifo are basically out of position tonight, and the Spurs sent the twin towers of Muhammad + Duncan.

Silver Horn King played very hard tonight, as did his teammates, this was not what Liu Xiu expected.

The Mavericks lost to the Spurs twice before the All-Star Weekend. At the beginning of the season, they were massacred 72-91. The half-way finale before the All-Star Weekend was beaten by a demon knife. They lost 95-98. Now the Mavericks are in such a state Well, especially Silver Horn King averaged 3 points per game in the last 35.3 games, so don't try hard.

The Mavericks, who aim to win the championship, naturally don't want to be at a disadvantage in the regular season against the Spurs, who are recognized as the number one favorite to win the championship. The 2-2 tie still has to be contested, and there is still a contest for the top spot in the Southwest Division... Liu Xiu thinks it is normal to fight for the Silver Horn King.

But Duncan played very hard and fiercely tonight, Liu Xiu was very surprised.

It’s not that the Spurs don’t have pressure and don’t need to work hard. The Mavericks have 11 wins and 3 losses after the All-Star break. They are chasing fiercely. They also have to work hard to win, but the style of the Spurs, or Duncan’s style, pays attention to a word of stability .

Tonight's Stone Buddha, his heart seems to be in a mess...

At 10:25 p.m., the game ended.

邓肯虽然拿到了24分15板6助攻2盖帽的出色表现，但23投10中的命中率颇为拉垮，10中4的罚球格外糟糕；银角大王19投11中，其中三分球1中1，外加12中12的罚球，狂飙35分7板2助攻！

93 to 88, the Mavericks won two back-to-back games and won four consecutive victories!

Relying on 35 points tonight, Nowitzki's scoring average increased to 25 points per game!Became the ninth scorer averaging 9+ per game this season!
...

The duel between the two powerful players in Texas was even better than Liu Xiu expected!
The main reason is that the Mavericks raised the spectacle.

Duncan made 10 of 4 free throws... the Spurs only lost by 5 points, and they couldn't bear to look at it.

Compared with last season's 59.9 points free throw percentage, Duncan's 67% free throw percentage this season is already quite high, but occasionally it is quite pitted.

Liu Xiu played against Nowitzki in person, and then watched a Nowitzki match with his own eyes. He found that Avery Johnson's singles tactics were indeed faster than Nelson's. Offensive and defensive transitions are more suitable for Nowitzki.

If it is the stage of training Nowitzki, the old Nelson must be the most suitable, but when Nowitzki's technical strength meets the needs of the old Nelson, the old Nelson is not so suitable. From the perspective of overall efficiency and court performance, From the 01-02 season to last season, Nowitzki has basically made no progress, because in the fast-paced offensive and defensive battles of old Nelson's team basketball, Nowitzki has so many things to do, and there is nothing to improve. .

And Nowitzki has the talent to do more!After the Mavericks switched to Avery Johnson's unlimited singles tactics this season, Nowitzki's improvement in half a season is more than the sum of the past two years!Of course, although in the past two or three seasons, Novitzki has not made much progress in technical expansion, but his basic skills training has never fallen behind. Solid basic skills are the basis for his take-off this season.

Liu Xiu guessed: Maybe this is the reason why Nelson made up his mind to leave the Mavericks?

But after retiring, he saw Cuban's ostentatious face on TV from time to time, and the old Nelson was so angry that he came back and found a team to beat his old club?
It's mad scientist.

Through the two games yesterday and today, Liu Xiu really felt how strong Nowitzki is in the 'unlimited singles' stage!
If it hadn't been for being blacked out by the Warriors, in the 07 playoffs, Nowitzki might have avenged Nash in the Western Conference Finals. In 06, the Mavericks defeated the Spurs 4-3. Lock the championship.

However, Liu Xiu feels that Nowitzki can still be restrained at this time. Yesterday, the Trail Blazers drew up a targeted defense for Nowitzki, but they couldn't hold back Nowitzki's recent state is so good that he feels hot. to that point.

In the last 15 games, Nowitzki has averaged 29.6 points per game, which has soared from 23.6 points per game before the All-Star Weekend to 25 points per game.

There will be another fight in more than a month. If Nowitzki is still in such a bad state by then, Liu Xiu will admit it!

Liu Xiu is particularly looking forward to the next fight with Nowitzki... communicate more with Outlaws, Delfino, Rahim and others...

...

Tomorrow there is still a day off. Tonight in the exotic Texas, where the girls are passionate and unrestrained in Dallas, several players of the Trail Blazers did not go to the game or stay in the hotel to rest, but ran out to be chic.

Several Trail Blazers players who went to watch the game between the Mavericks and the Spurs, some of them ran out after the game, and some even didn’t finish the game because they received a call from a teammate or a local friend. leave first.

Raheem and McDyess, these two models of self-discipline, will not go out to fool around except to celebrate and drink with the team after winning the game. After watching the game, they will go back to the hotel... This season the Trail Blazers There are two more model players in the game-Gloves and Warden.

After watching the game, Liu Xiu went back to the hotel, called on the phone and instructed the other party to fiddle with the computer, and after a long time of busy work, he finally connected the network video connection.

A few days ago, a certain Internet company just released a new social video software, which has lower requirements for network speed and easier operation. I heard from a fellow No. The network can complete the video smoothly.

Liu Xiu and Anne Hathaway bought this software, and they can play video when they have time to play away games.

Before leaving home, Liu Xiu said that she would teach Anne Hathaway how to use the software first, and Anne Hathaway assured that she would be able to figure out how to use it in a few clicks.

As a result, it took more than half an hour to toss.

After the video was connected, Liu Xiu pinched her thigh and praised: "As expected of my woman, she is awesome. I just say you can handle this little software."

Anne-Hathaway is not stupid, stuck out her tongue, and then started to laugh...

The laughing kind.

Liu Xiu asked puzzledly, "Annie, are you tired? You are laughing so silly."

"You are stupid! Hee hee..."

"..."

Here in Portland.

Anne Hathaway looked at her boyfriend on the computer screen, and thought of the news that she saw just now. Many players of the Trail Blazers were chic in the nightclub... she was extremely happy.

With Liu Xiu, she made up her mind and was ready to accept some things.

In the end, this guy was not the kind of philandering radish. Only after she got together with Liu Xiu did she realize that Liu Xiu used to be a fool and hadn't had a formal girlfriend in the United States for several years.

With a formal girlfriend, this guy has become a 'player's private life moral model'.

If there is anything bad about it, it is that she feels a bit overwhelmed... She heard a saying in China that there are only exhausted cows and no plowed fields, but her actual feeling is not the same...

Suddenly, Anne Hathaway realized that she might be a little silly laughing, so she quickly found a topic, and the two chatted about the frequent fights between sisters Anna and Jaylen recently.

Hearing that Jay was beaten up by Anna again today, Liu Xiu was very satisfied and couldn't stop praising her as "as expected of my daughter".

Knowing that Anna actually ran a few steps when she was chasing and beating her fast-crawling younger brother, she was so scared that her younger brother started to run too. Liu Xiu was surprised, it was only 11 months old!Although it was only by running a few steps and then turning into two people crawling on the ground to move quickly, this physical fitness is already amazing.

When the doctor came to their home to give the cubs a health check last month, he said that the sisters Anna and Jaylen were very strong, and said in an envious tone that it would be nice to have a father who is a talented athlete.

It's just that, Liu Xiu is also envious of his son - he plays hard here, earns healing points to improve his physical fitness, and his son doesn't have to do anything, he can get the inheritance of talent!
Anne-Hathaway felt so much fun when she saw Liu Xiu's sour look. If she usually treats her son better than Liu Xiu, she can also see Liu Xiu's like this.

On the bed next to her, the sister-in-law who came to spend the night with Anne-Hathaway tonight was pretending to be asleep, eavesdropping on her brother's sister-in-law's evening chat, hoping to hear something interesting.

I didn't expect these two to be so boring!Can we talk about something grown-ups should talk about?I heard from classmates that their brothers and sisters chatted with their respective boyfriends and girlfriends. This is not the case!
