Healing Basketball

  Chapter 1038 Chapter 1038. The way out for my sister-in-law

   At 7:40 in the evening, the Air Canada Center in Toronto, the Trail Blazers and the Raptors entered the arena successively, and the much-anticipated offensive and defensive battle is about to begin.

  Greetings before the game, Milicic was full of fighting spirit: "Warden, I will definitely beat you this time."

  Liu Xiu clearly felt the changes in the Raptors—they were no longer afraid of 81 points!

   Unlike last season's "as if no longer afraid", it has really hardened.

   Tough source - Ron Artest!

   Liu Xiu asked Milicic in confusion: "It's not like you haven't beaten me, why are you so excited?"

  The farmer is so angry!

  (▼へ▼メ)

  The most annoying thing is that even if he thought that he would be cured, the development was different from what he thought.

   It’s fine to punch the cotton, he also prepared a bunch of content to fight with Liu Xiu to the limit, all of which are useless!

   Milicic lost and returned to the bench. Seeing Artest, his mood improved instantly.

  Good teammate, this is it!

He and Bosh have a good relationship, but Bosh has a problem that he can't stand—once he loses and is in a bad mood, he complains about this and that like a bitter woman, as if it's all other people's fault, and he himself No problem at all.

Even if you can't fight one-on-one, it's not because you are weak, but because your opponent is so strong... And whenever you encounter a strong opponent, Bosh will take the lead and play a series with Yao Ming, and get a total of 29 points in 6 games Rebounds, almost invisible.

  But this guy likes to talk harshly before the game to attract attention, making the opponent even more irritable...

Artest, who believes in world peace, is different. He is strong, tough, and domineering. Although he is not as good as the warden, he is already very good at fighting. He takes the initiative to take responsibility when things happen. Except for his temper. It seems that everything is perfect!

   On the other side, Liu Xiu is also paying attention to Artest's player detection report.

"Ron Artest, 29 years old, 201 cm, 111 kg, SF/PF, ability evaluation 95, offense 92, defense 99, three-pointer 89, mid-range shot 72, layup 93... averaged 22.4 points and 5.2 rebounds per game 3.5 assists, 2.4 steals, 0.7 blocks... Shooting 47% from the field, 40.2% from the three-point range, averaging 2.2 three-pointers per game..."

  World Peace's shooting is getting better and better. Although it is limited to long-range shots, it can no longer defend like James.

The year before last, the 35% three-point shooting rate averaged 1 three-pointer per game. Last year, the 38% three-point shooting rate averaged 1.5 three-pointers per game. This year, there is a stronger inside control, and he has already made top-level performances. .

  The number of shots is well controlled, averaging 17 shots per game, 5.5 three-point shots per game, and no random shots. The number of players trained as defensive coolies at the beginning is well displayed in Artest.

"Dako Milicic, 23 years old, 213 centimeters, 125 kilograms, C, ability evaluation 94, offense 91, defense 95, passing 85... averaged 20.7 points, 11.3 rebounds, 3.6 assists, 0.7 steals and 3 blocks... shooting 51.5 %, free throw percentage 71.8%..."

   The Raptors, like the Spurs, don't talk about martial arts, and there are two players who average 20+ players per game!

   Moreover, these two men are both top-notch defensive players... Liu Xiu thinks it is really difficult for Beast and KING to rush to the defense.

   On the contrary, he is the warden. With the help of the Great God Jack, there may be hope for a defense!

   Played more than 20 games in the new season, Jarrett Jack started 15 games with the Jazz.

  Student Xiaopao’s defense is really good, team defense command, supplementary defense on the flanks, oppressive defense against small players... What the point guard position can do, Xiaopao has almost done it to the extreme!

   Liu Xiu made a comparison during the offseason. The defensive command, he and Xiaopao should be about the same. They are not at Kidd's level, but they are not bad, top-notch.

   Paul is better at supplementing and assisting defense on the flanks, and the same is true for oppressive defense against small players.

  But Liu Xiu can switch to shooting guards and small forwards like Kidd, and one-on-one defense from the outside is more comprehensive.

   This was originally Liu Xiu’s plan to defend against Paul this season, but Jack got angry...

   But the defense still has to continue to work hard!

  The team's high-speed rotation defense, he and the outlaw lunatic's top-arc single defense are very important.

   Moreover, Kobe has locked a first-defense position, and there is only one position to compete for. Paul has been injured constantly this season, and there are also competitors such as Rondo, Wade, and Battier.

   Also, we have to prevent the league from putting KING on the back line...

  …

"Great Mage... Teammate: Ray Allen, Trait Conversion Talent: Quick Shot (Full Blood)... Opponent: Ron Artest, Trait Transformation Talent: Beast, Bonus Effect: 1. Strength +2, 2 .It is determined that the host's explosive power is lower than the static power, and the static power reaches the top level, and the explosive power is lower than the top level. The host's explosive power is temporarily increased to the top level (90). 3. When the single defense force is dominant, the defensive deterrent power is greatly improved. "

   "Talent: Sharpshooter is temporarily activated..."

  "The four major centers... have already defeated their opponents in their first meeting: Amare Stoudemire, Dwight Howard, Yao Ming..."

   "Equipment worn: Answer's wristband, Peter Pan's leggings, Big Black Bear's ankleguard..."

  The game is about to start, Liu Xiu copied his talents and came to the field, and a new task came.

   "Spear and Shield: Chaos Superstar series of missions.

  Goal 1: The host needs to lead the team to break 100 points in this game.

  Reward: Stuffy Gourd (Talent Tendency).

  Goal 2: The host's score and assists in this game must be higher than the season average. (The host played 21 games this season, averaging 29.76 points, 7.6 rebounds, 6.47 assists, 2.85 steals and 0.95 blocks per game.)

   Reward: 3000 healing value.

  Goal 3: To win the game.

  Reward: 1.3000 healing value, 2. Follow-up tasks related to Ron Artest. "

   Liu Xiu looked at Artest. Most of his excitement tonight came from this opponent.

  Compared with James, there is a big gap in talent between Artest and James. Artest's style of play may collapse quickly after his physical fitness declines after the age of 30.

  Liu Xiu didn't regret it or anything, but enjoyed the joy of facing the peak Artest at the moment.

  The first goal of the new mission... It doesn't matter if you can't get it, but the talent is useless.

   "Toronto Raptors, 14 wins and 8 losses, averaging 97.3 points per game, conceding 90.8 points per game..."

  The Raptors averaged the lowest points per game in the league, lower than the Bulls and Cavaliers!

   Their new head coach Doug Rivers and defensive assistant Tom Thibodeau are really good at defense.

  However, if this trend continues, things like conceding less than 90 points per game may be buried in NBA history.

  The second goal was a bit painful for him. After Randolph was injured, he rushed to the airport and rushed directly to the third place in scoring average. Fortunately, he didn't get greedy for assists this season, otherwise it would be difficult.

  The other 9 starters also came to the field.

   The Trail Blazers sent Liu Xiu, Ray Allen, Hill, Kwame Brown, and Marc Gasol tonight's starting lineup.

  The Raptors sent Felton, Anthony Parker, Artest, Jermaine O'Neal, Darko Milicic.

   At 7 o'clock in the evening, Milicic narrowly beat Kwame Brown to win the jump ball. The game started and the Raptors went first!

   Artest, hurry up!

   Artest, who was completely charged without the ball, Liu Xiu couldn't withstand it, so he could only try his best to stick it.

   Felton received the ball and passed it to Milicic in the middle circle, Milicic held the ball to support... Finally, he chose to advance to a position close to the three-point line and pass it to Felton who was running over.

   Artest went to the inside under the defense of Liu Xiu and ran out in a circle.

   But the height and wingspan of the inside line on the opposite side is about the same as that of O'Neal, which is too much!

  If Birdman, Dior, or outlaws retreat to the basket, he wants to go hard.

But the opponent deliberately changed to a 130-kilogram fat man... Artest learned that the opponent's defense is serious, and he has to work **** both ends of the offense and defense tonight. The opponent's average conceded points per game is 92.6 points, which has restricted the opponent's scoring so far. The ability ranks fourth in the league.

  The Raptors players settled down, and Felton launched an attack... Strong!

Liu Xiu followed Artest to the flank, and Ray Allen defended Felton. Ray Allen was more than ten centimeters taller than Felton, but Felton was heavier. Ray Allen predicted the movement correctly, but Can't stand it.

  Fortunately, Felton's speed is average, and he can't get rid of Ray Allen even if he runs into Ray Allen and breaks into the inside lane. The speed of the two is basically the same.

   Felton came to close range in the confrontation, Gasol Jr. made up, Felton made a rush shot...missed!

Gasol stuck the baseline and rushed to O'Neal Jr., Ray Allen protected the defensive rebound, Felton immediately posted it to Ray Allen, Ray Allen gave the ball to Gasol Jr., Jr. Gasol passed the ball to Liu Xiu without stopping, and Liu Xiu received the ball and advanced quickly.

  Ray Allen followed up and quickly moved down, but was caught by Felton, so he couldn't get up to speed. After breaking free, Liu Xiu's side had already withdrawn from the three-point line because there was no flank follow-up support point, waiting for the positional battle to attack.

  Ray Allen thought that Felton's offense was too brainless just now. It turns out that this is the Raptors' offensive and defensive strategy!

   Continue to give him the team's second scorer to confront, very basic, but very effective defensive strategy.

  The opposite head coach, Doug Rivers, deserves to be the youngest and best coach ever.

  When Rivers won the best coach in the 99-00 season, he was only 38 years old.

  The Trail Blazers also fell into a positional battle, Liu Xiu looked for a pick and roll... This time it was Gasol who pulled out!

Gasol blocked Artest at the right time, Liu Xiu used the screen to break through, Artest retreated to bypass Gasol's huge body, Liu Xiu had already reached the free throw line, Artest I can't catch up anymore, and I can't catch up.

   Gasol turned around and took two steps forward to a position a little beyond the free throw line.

   Frontal jumper at the basket. Gasol Jr. took 12 shots in this area this season and hit 8 goals. Artest remembers it very clearly.

But he doesn't worry if he can't catch up. Milicic spreads out to defend. Don't look at that guy's 125 kg, but his defense ability is not weaker than Kwame-Brown and Duncan, which limits Liu Xiu's breakthrough line very well. , there is O'Neal under the basket... "kuang"...

   Artest: "..."

   What are you doing!

  [○｀Д○]

  The three of them were dubbed 'the best defensive frontcourt trio ever', but they were dunked three times by the opponent!

   Do you want to lose face!

Jermaine O'Neal, who has experienced a black eye, is also very helpless. He is also responsible for defending Kwame Brown. He is not afraid of Kwame Brown responding well on the baseline or getting into the basket to wait for the cake, but this guy actually seized the opportunity Pulled out to help Hill block Anthony Parker... He was distracted for a moment, and his eyes went dark...

   Artest didn't complain about O'Neal. He knew that the main problem with this ball was Gasol.

   It was this guy who went out for the pick-and-roll. If Gasol stayed inside, he could only stand up and respond.

   He regards Liu Xiu as the "enemy of life", and he is very concerned about the Trail Blazers.

As the strongest defensive player, Artest easily discovered Gasol's talent, and also noticed that Gasol didn't match the starting style of play. Although the speed problem will not affect team cooperation, singles and Containment is not as good as Randolph, comprehensive support is not as good as Diaw, efficiency of eating cakes and catching and shooting is not as good as Kwame Brown...

  External evaluation——The Trail Blazers' possession of Gasol Jr., an offensive and defensive core genius, is a waste. They may trade him away like Blake and Millsap, without delaying others.

   But let Gasol go out to pick and roll this operation, Artest suspects that the Trail Blazers seem to have a way to break this embarrassing situation!

   Then the two sides fought a few more rounds, and Artest's speculation was confirmed.

The opponent actually let a 215 cm tall and 130 kg heavy tonnage center give up the natural threat of eating cakes, give up the height, wingspan and tonnage advantages that can rush offensive rebounds with feet on the ground, and run to the top arc to free throws Work in narrow areas between lines!
