Healing Basketball

Chapter 989 989. Lock in an average triple-double in advance!

After the Spurs were less than 70 wins and locked in the first place in the regular season, they began to rest.

On the Trail Blazers side, seeing the hope of reaching 60 wins, they began to play hard and desperately.

The coaching staff does not have this requirement. They should rest. During the rotation, except for Liu Xiu, a physical monster, everyone else can rotate as they like. The average playing time of the Trail Blazers is even more outrageous than that of the Spurs. Ray Allen played only 30 minutes.

But Liu Xiu and his teammates saw the hope of 60 wins, and they were unwilling to give up whatever they said, and they even became active in defense, although the effect was not good.

The challenge from the Southwest Division continues, and the fourth opponent is coming.

4月12号晚上，开拓者队经历了2小时29分钟的比赛后，以106比115憾负火箭队。

汉密尔顿30分、格兰杰21分5板4助攻、拜纳姆20分14板1抢断3盖帽，三人合砍81分，表现凶猛。

开拓者队这边，刘秀43投6板13助攻4抢断，雷-阿伦19分4板、兰多夫14分9板、夸梅-布朗6分15板……表现也不差，但拉锯战的时候出现了两次进攻断档，被汉密尔顿和格兰杰抓住了机会。

Bynum's 7 offensive rebounds in a single game tonight were very ferocious, forcing the Blazers insiders to get stuck and protect the rebounds themselves. The number of counterattacks of the Blazers really decreased because of this.

After losing, the Trail Blazers coaching staff was relieved and regretful at the same time.

I really didn't expect to have a chance to hit 60 wins this season, but in the end, I still couldn't drive low and go high to get 60 wins like last season.

But in this way, there is no need to worry about any accidents when the players fight too hard at the end of the regular season.

...

On the 13th, the Trail Blazers had a day off.

The challenge from the Southwest Division still has 1 game not played. Tomorrow they will face the Hornets with three highs.

After breakfast, Liu Xiu checked the news for a while.

The trend of public opinion has changed really fast, and now the latest topic-can the Hornets, Lakers, and Suns average a triple-double against the Warden?
He has a total of 808 rebounds this season. Either he will not play in the remaining 3 games, or he will have to get a total of 3 rebounds in the remaining 12 games.

Theoretically speaking, it is really possible to capsize in the end.

There is also the final battle for the assist king.

On Nash's side, after becoming teammates with O'Neal, his average assists per game dropped to 10.6, and he fell out of the competition for the assist king, unless he averaged 3 assists per game in the last 27 games to overtake Liu Xiu.

Deron steadily averaged more than 10 assists per game, and he will not be promoted again.

Liu Xiu currently ranks first with 11.24 assists per game, and Paul ranks second with 11.0625 assists per game. Paul has the opportunity and ability to regain the top assists list in the last 3 games.

In the steals list, Liu Xiu averaged 3 steals per game, Paul averaged 2.7 steals per game, and Liu Xiu secured the top spot.

In the block list, Camby averaged 3.6 blocks per game, beating Milicic, who averaged 3.3 blocks per game, and secured the top spot.

In the rebounding list, Howard averaged 14.2 rebounds per game, beating Camby who averaged 13.3 rebounds per game, securing the top spot.

As for the scoring list, Liu Xiu didn't know when he hadn't seen any topics related to this list.

As the coach said in the chat, James’ scoring average began to decline after 3 consecutive 40+ points. Lost 3 points, 30 points, dropped to now, has dropped to 4 points per game.

Liu Xiu, who averaged 33.4 points per game, is far ahead. Even if he has 3 points in the next 0 games, it will not affect his victory in scoring.

The hope of 60 wins has been shattered, and now his goal is to defend the assists leader, average a triple-double, and win the 42nd triple-double!
After checking the news for a while, he searched for the current situation of the Hornets.

The lion fights the rabbit with all its strength, so don't be careless.

They lost yesterday because of the fierce performance of Varejao and Bynum. Bynum's performance of 20 points, 14 rebounds and 3 blocks was too outstanding.

The Hornets with three highs may also be quite troublesome.

While watching the Hornets news, he came up with an idea—if the Timberwolves choose Horford, Roy might be able to make the playoffs this season.

Then the Hornets won't sell David West, and the Lakers won't be able to complete the rebuild immediately...

So, blame the Hornets for everything!

Thinking about it this way, isn't the motivation full?

...

On the 14th, the Trail Blazers ushered in a challenge from the Hornets at home.

Horford and Aldridge, a pair of talented twin towers, after the Hornets traded away David West and gave up training Bogut, the two showed the same talent as the original Raptors Twin Towers .

霍福德3月份场均14分10板，阿尔德里奇全明星周末后场均18.1分8板2助攻1.1盖帽。

Magloire, who returned to his old club, also performed well. As the first substitute inside, he played 20 games after the All-Star break, averaging 6.5 points and 4.9 rebounds per game.

Bogut was put on the shelf by the Hornets in an attempt to sell him in the offseason.

There is a precedent for Kwame Brown's rise in the last year of his rookie contract. At least Bogut, who looks good physically and has good defensive talent, still has good trade value.

And when Bogut was valued by the Hornets before the All-Star Weekend this season, his statistics were actually pretty good, averaging 24 points, 5.4 rebounds and 7.7 blocks in 1.17 minutes per game.

But he played in just 52 of the first 30 games of the All-Star break.

The most important thing is his off-site troubles, heavy debts, and private work everywhere... Recently, the DVD of the adult movie he shot has been released, and the sales volume is amazing.

It is rumored that Stern is preparing to sue the distributor for violating competition regulations, and used words such as 'NBA No. [-] pick' and 'Fallen NBA's greatest talent' when the film was released.

But it is estimated that the lawsuit will not win. The NBA player is indeed Bogut's identity...

And this incident also made some players who were at the bottom of the league eager to move.

They really didn't expect this operation.

At 8:[-] p.m., the game begins.

As expected by the Trail Blazers, the Hornets wanted to snipe Liu Xiu's triple-double.

But tonight, the Trail Blazers were fully prepared to defend against rushing, and Maurice Cheeks directly adjusted from the tactical level, asking Liu Xiu to give up the flank defense, and directly shrink the rebound if possible.

There are only 12 rebounds left. If all goes well, we will be able to secure a triple-double tonight. You don’t have to think about it in the next two games. If you don’t drag it on, you won’t get the reputation of "averaging a triple-double" ...that's what Morris-Cheeks thought.

It was Liu Xiu's first time to play without regard for defense, but had he never eaten pork or seen a pig running?

Just follow the play style of the strange man in my impression.

It went well. Liu Xiu scored his 3th rebound of the game at 11 minutes and 12 seconds into the fourth quarter.

The Rose Garden Arena is boiling!

They saw with their own eyes that Liu Xiu averaged a triple-double this season!
最终，刘秀24投13中，其中三分球9中4，加上6中6的罚球，拿到36分14板6助攻2抢断1盖帽，率领开拓者队以121比106击败黄蜂队，战绩提升至57胜23负！
