  Chapter 1069 Chapter 1069. Drive low and go high

   Guarding the door of the lounge is the duty of the outlaws.

   It's just that no one has "wrong door" for many years, which makes him very depressed.

  However, during the preseason this year, there were two match days when a teammate tried to enter the gate during the warden's lunch break, but he stopped him. He instantly felt that his 'work' was useful! Don't let others disturb the warden's nap!

   But unfortunately, after those two times, no one came to bother.

  The time came to 7:20 in the evening, the Rose Garden Arena, the Thunder and the Trail Blazers entered the arena successively.

  Durant 92, Rose 89, Harden 76, Ibaka 73, Bargnani 81, Sefulosa 77 (offensive 65, defense 91), Kostic 79…

   Liu Xiu looked at the boss and the second child in Goose City, they were like animals!

  Durant in the third grade is among the top, and Rose in the second grade is only one line away from the top.

  The future king hasn't grown a beard yet, like Jike Junyi...

  Sefolosha also has a top defensive ability and has entered the peak period.

   Plus Bargnani and Kostic two offensive insiders.

  The Thunder are about to start doing something!

   And it seems that the league is also very optimistic about this team overflowing with talent, and arranges the Thunder as their opponent in the opening game of the defending champion.

  The purpose of this operation of the league is too obvious. They want to use the popularity of their prison team to let people all over the world know the talented players of the Thunder team.

  The time came to 7:35. After Gou Dahu gave a 10-minute speech, it was finally time for the championship flag to be raised.

  The 5th championship banner in the history of the Trail Blazers and the 4th championship banner in the era of the Warden raised!

   Afterwards, the championship ring was awarded, and the big dog still came in person.

  Watching the fans skillfully find the championship ring from under the seat, Ross, who was sitting on the bench, was curious and stretched out his hand under the seat to imitate...屮!

   Actually there is!

  Ross looked around, and his teammates focused on the warden who was receiving the ring.

   This shit, it turned out that he also prepared a ring for the opponent!

  It might be interesting for someone else.

   But Ross doesn't think it's funny!

   It's not just Liu Xiu who will ridicule the Thunder as the 'defending champion', the media are also talking about the Thunder's second year in team history but already having a championship.

  Ross doesn't know what the team owner thinks, they disbanded the team and rebuilt a new team, and he is reluctant to part with the Supersonics championship, which has now become a laughing stock of people.

  Since you are so reluctant to part with this championship, don't move away from Seattle!

  That's one of the richest cities in America!

  If you can play in Seattle, you will only come to Oklahoma City if you are stupid.

   Originally, the "Thunder defending champion" had nothing to do with the Trail Blazers, but who made the Trail Blazers happen to be the defending champions?

  So, Little Rose concentrated her negative emotions on the Trail Blazers.

   Blame the prison team! It's all the warden's fault!

  Ross finally chose to put the ring in the bag under the chair, he will use this as motivation!

  …

   At 8:00 p.m., the defending champion Trail Blazers vs. Goose City Youth Army Thunder kicked off!

  Thunder team starting: Rose, Severosa, Durant, Ibaka, Bargnani.

   Trail Blazers starters: Liu Xiu, Ray Allen, Hill, Kwame Brown, Gasol Jr.

  Liu Xiu copied Ray Allen's full blood 'quick shot', and... Harden's residual blood 'unconventional'.

"Talent: unconventional (residual blood), bonus effect: when the host uses a step-back shot, the three-point or mid-range shot +1, when using the European step, the layup +1, and the core strength is slightly enhanced. Note: copy this talent Level, although James Harden's strength growth depends on the full blood level, the CIC will become a negative growth."

  Kwame Brown was careless when jumping the ball, lost to the man with a stick on the opponent's leg, the Thunder went first... a mistake!

  Liu Xiu made a successful top arc dive, steals Rose, and counterattacked at the beginning!

  The fans who just sighed because Kwame Brown lost the jump ball cheered wildly!

  The Thunder pursued the counterattack very quickly, and did not give Liu Xiu a chance to attack the frame or make an emergency stop jump shot, but Liu Xiu went deep and scored the ball!

  Ray Allen followed up from the flank, caught the ball at a 45-degree angle on the left side and chased him for a three-point shot...Scored!

  'Zon of the Wind' triggers, 7 seconds to attack, Ray Allen was already fully warmed up, and he was lucky enough to trigger a 20% probability of receiving Liu Xiu's pass and shooting from the wing.

   This ball, a hollow hit!

   Not only that, Durant and Rose, who were trying to protect the rebound under the basket, could not push Liu Xiu, who was under the basket and was about to grab an offensive rebound.

   It was the Thunder's attack again. Rose made no mistakes in Liu Xiu's single defense this time, and successfully rushed to the basket. Liu Xiu couldn't stop his high-frequency breakthrough.

  But Gasol Jr. protected the frame and Kwame Brown defended in series, successfully interfering with Rose's throw.

  Hill grabbed the defensive rebound and passed it to Liu Xiu, who counterattacked!

Ray Allen followed up on the flanks and held back Durant. Liu Xiu rushed to the frontcourt, half a meter away from the top of the three-point line, stopped, and met Sefulosa's chasing attack. A three-point shot with a body...adding a back...

   Hit again!

When Durant chased Liu Xiu for a three-point shot, he originally moved his feet to the basket, guarding the board, and saw Kwame Brown rushing towards the basket. Te stopped immediately.

  The warden, the three-point leader, and the new second head of the prison team. The impact of these three people made the Thunder players swallow their mouths collectively, including the little Rose whose heart is higher than the sky.

  Rose, who was chasing behind Liu Xiu, spewed out words starting with 'F'.

  Three-point king, warden, these two people started the two offenses...it's too crazy!

  Ray Allen's three-pointer was okay, and he responded to the shot.

   Liu Xiu this...

  Ross doesn't know how to describe it!

  Is this how basketball is played?

  Ross is a little suspicious of life.

They have strong newcomers to join this year. As the tactical core No. 1 pick, Little Rose has improved by leaps and bounds. Durant has made a big impact in training and preseason. For the new season, they are full of expectations. They will play the opening game against the defending champion. They are ready to do great things.

The Prison team lacks Butcher. This is a mature superstar who may not be as powerful as Durant. Anyway, they don’t think they will have a chance to rise this year after losing Durant. They believe that the strength of the Prison team will be due to Butcher leaves and slides away.

  They feel that killing the Prison team in an away game is a symbol of their rise in Goose City.

  However, the game had just started, and they discovered that there might be something wrong with their judgment.

   It is certain that the strength of the prison team will decline, but after the decline, can they kill the prison team and become famous?

  The prison team is more eager to win than them! I don't even want to lose!

  Bagnani looked at Liu Xiu's wide-open eyes, which seemed to be shining with red light.

  Hunting time!

  …

Durant scored 23 points on 7 of 20 shots, Rose scored 19 points, 3 rebounds and 7 assists on 6 of 15 shots, Bargnani scored 16 points on 7 of 16 shots, Ibaka scored 9 points on 2 of 4 shots 8 rebounds, Harden made 2 of 9 shots, including 2 of 7 three-pointers and scored 6 points... The Thunder Five did their best.

Because apart from the 5 of them, the Thunder only scored 2 points and 1 rebound, and no one else scored. They played a total of 9 players, and 3 of them failed to score. The team only scored 75 points, 25 points in a single game. 2 fouls and 20 turnovers.

Liu Xiu made 15 of 26 shots, including 8 of 14 three-pointers and 6 of 6 free throws. He scored 44 points, 10 rebounds, 5 assists and 4 steals; Ray Allen made 8 of 15 shots, including 4 of 6 three-pointers. In addition to 10 of 10 free throws, he scored 30 points, 3 rebounds and 2 assists.

  113 to 75, the Trail Blazers slaughtered the Thunder with 38 points and won the opening game!

  The final whistle sounded, and Liu Xiu received a system notification, the first S-level score in the new season! Received 950 healing value rewards, and, the 'New Beginning', the opening game streak mission continued, he got a random attribute point.

   "Challenger:

  Target: Thunder Five...

  The host led the team to defeat the Thunder by more than 20 points. Rewards: basic reward 2000 healing value, extra reward 3800 healing value. "

  Liu Xiu sent out an order in her heart to receive attribute points, but she didn't report any expectations... Then she saw the words 'explosive power'!

   Taking a closer look, it is indeed explosive +1, from 89 to 90, reaching the top level!

  Breakthrough even with the 'high back attack', from 89 to 90!

surprise.

  Static strength and height and wingspan are more important for low backs, and explosive power is more important for high backs.

  In the beginning, he didn't care so much about when his physical fitness reached the top in all aspects. Now that he did reach it, he was still very happy. He understood that he just didn't care about it because the probability of getting it was not high.

  The Thunder team on the opposite side was crushed tonight, doubting life, Liu Xiu looked in a great mood.

  By the middle and late stages of the season, the Goose City Youth Army will inevitably become better and stronger.

  But the new season has just started, and there is an expression of wanting to fight... The Thunder players are so excited that even if Liu Xiu didn't receive the task of "Challenger", he couldn't help but want to abuse the opponent.

   Taking advantage of the fact that the opponent has not yet fully risen, he will not be so easy to bully in the future.

  The other thing is that they need a big victory to build confidence and shock their opponents. They are still a top team.

   It’s a new month, on November 2nd, the Trail Blazers ushered in a challenge from the Nuggets at home.

  The Nuggets didn't catch any big fish this summer. They tried to sign for Randolph, but were rejected by both the Trail Blazers and Randolph.

   Volunteering to leave Portland for Denver Plateau? Isn't that a head-back jumper?

However, the Nuggets still have something to gain. The Timberwolves selected Tyreke Evans. Evans averaged 17.5 points, 4.6 rebounds and 4.5 assists in the summer league, ranking third in scoring and assists. First, stronger combat power, stronger body, and more stable style of play than the senior Rose, let the logo man give up Blake in place, and the Nuggets took advantage.

   With the steady Blake and the rookie Lawson who is faster than Liu Xiu, after Iverson left the team, the Nuggets quickly completed the reconstruction of the point guard line.

  In terms of personal ability, even the 34-year-old Iverson would beat these two.

   But from a team perspective, the Nuggets are stronger than last season!

   Iverson's style of play, how strong he is, how strong the team's offense is, and last season he was already holding Anthony back.

  But Blake is different. His statistics are not obvious, but his auxiliary ability is very strong, so that Anthony no longer plays the role of An Lubu who is carrying a lot of pitfalls, but has been strengthened.

   There is also Efflalo, who was traded back from the Pistons during the All-Star weekend last season, and has shown his ability this season.

As a talented defensive player who can defend from the first position to the third position, Afflalo can't get ahead in the Pistons. Billups, Carter, and Prince all play more than 30 minutes per game. Tai Ziji also played more than 20 minutes. Efflalo averaged just over 10 minutes per game in his rookie year. He averaged 7 minutes per game last season. Shortly after being traded to the Nuggets, he was reimbursed for another season.

  In this year's preseason, he finally showed his defensive and fast break ability, which became an important part of George Karl's track and field style of play.

  The new backcourt combination, coupled with the frontcourt trio of Anthony, Kenyon Martin and Nene, gave the defending champion a surprise tonight.

   Relying on Anthony's 33 points and 6 rebounds, Blake's 12 points and 8 assists, Nene's 18 points and 11 rebounds... the Nuggets beat the defending champion 111 to 104 away!

  Liu Xiu scored 35 points, Ray Allen 18 points, and the outlaw lunatic 14 points... also soared, but not as hard as the opponent.

  For the first time in his career, Liu Xiu felt that the inside line was suppressed!

  Before, even against the super twin towers of Yao Ming, who had just entered the peak, and Ben Wallace, who was at the end of the peak, their Trail Blazers were only at a disadvantage on the inside.

   But now, facing the twin towers of Kenyon Martin and Nene, Kwame Brown, Gasol Jr., Birdman and others are obviously suppressed.

   Kwame Brown is no match for four hands.

   Following the 4th and 5th, the Trail Blazers played mosaics alternately at home and away. First they lost 79 to 88 at home, and then won 102 to 97 away.

  The strength of Mosaic shows what is called an away dragon. Those researchers at the Toyota Center know Liu Xiu's name more than those who know the names of Mosaic players.

   The Trail Blazers started with 2 wins and 2 losses, breaking the worst start since the 03-04 season.

   On the 7th, the Trail Blazers returned to the home court to usher in the game against the Eagles. As expected, the butcher, who had risen to 138 kg, returned to his old club home to receive the championship ring, and blew kisses to the fans in a rage.

  The fans cheered and applauded enthusiastically at first, but after the game was over, the butcher was booed...

  102 to 94, under the leadership of Teague, Joe Johnson, Josh Smith, Randolph, and Millsap, the Eagles defeated the Trail Blazers away and gave the Trail Blazers their third loss in the opening game!

  After playing the Eagles, the Trail Blazers got two days off, and the management organized a meeting with the coaching staff and core players to discuss.

  Starting with 2 wins and 3 losses, this record made them realize that something was wrong with them.

  After some discussions, they came to the conclusion that their tactical play is not inclined enough to the outside line!

They are still too conservative, and they still give Kwame Brown, Gasol Jr., and Birdman too much expectation in the main rotation of the inside line, and give them too much responsibility. The performance expected by the coaching staff is not good for others.

  The younger sister-in-law is too young, and the bird man is pure blue-collar. The three of them guarantee that the defense is okay, but it is really impossible to ensure that the offense and defense are integrated.

  The solution is to try every means to create shooting opportunities for Liu Xiu and Ray Allen's super backcourt. Since the inside line is like a bird, it is responsible for defense and follow-up fast break.

   After making this change, the Trail Blazers immediately lost a game.

It was also good luck. On November 10th, in the Trail Blazers game against the Spurs at home, Ray Allen made 11 of 11 shots, including 7 of 7 three-pointers and 6 of 6 free throws, scoring 35 points. .

  Ray Allen's three-pointers were mostly not open shots, and he made consecutive hits, directly crashing the Spurs!

   Driven by him, Liu Xiu scored 27 points, Kwame Brown 20 points, and Outlaws 15 points...

  123 to 112, the Trail Blazers beat the Spurs in the scoring battle!

   While the record improved to 3 wins and 3 losses and returned to a 50% winning percentage, Ray Allen scored 35 points on every shot, ranking second in history!

  His teammate Liu Xiu scored 38 points on 15 of 15 shots with the highest score in history.

   On the 12th, the Trail Blazers ushered in a challenge from the Timberwolves at home.

  As an upstart in the league, the Timberwolves started aggressively and currently rank first in the league with 5 wins and 0 losses in the start!

   The five-man team of Evans, Roy, Luol Deng, Gasol, and Ryan Hollins played the strongest start performance!

  But unlucky, I met the Trail Blazers, whose state of play has soared after adjusting their style of play.

  Liu Xiu scored 40+ in a single game for the second time this season, with 47 points, 9 rebounds, 7 assists and 3 steals, leading the Trail Blazers to a 116-109 victory over the Timberwolves, ending the Timberwolves' 5-game winning streak!

  …

The preparation plan before the training camp is A. During the training camp, it is adjusted to B. During the preseason, it is adjusted to C. The start of the regular season is D. In the end, it won the second place in the Western Conference and the first place in the Western Conference with E. , This is the status quo of the Trail Blazers.

  4 wins and 3 losses, starting with 6 home and 1 away schedule, it can be described as a terrible performance.

   On the 14th, the Trail Blazers came to the Minneapolis Target Center to fight the Timberwolves again, starting a wave of 5 consecutive away games, playing so many home games, and cruel consecutive away games.

But in the first game, they played against the stunned Timberwolves. Liu Xiu scored 27 points, 7 rebounds and 6 assists, Hill scored 9 points, 5 rebounds and 11 assists, Dior scored 7 points, 4 rebounds and 7 assists, Ray Allen scored 23 points... The Trail Blazers played a beautiful team offense and beat the Timberwolves 107 to 94, giving the Timberwolves a two-game losing streak.

The sister-in-law, who was extremely depressed at the beginning, was as happy as an idiot after these two games. After winning the Timberwolves again, he ran to dance in front of his brother, and his brother raised his fists. The sister-in-law ran away in fright, and was almost beaten again. Beat up.

   But after running back, the little sister-in-law remembered that her brother could no longer beat him!

  But why did you turn around and run when you saw your brother's fist?

  Be sure not to be cowardly next time! Yes, next time for sure!

  The record has improved to 5 wins and 3 losses, and the Trail Blazers have returned to the ranks of the strong teams in the Western Conference.

   Immediately afterwards, the Trail Blazers came to the Southwest Division and played back-to-back away games against the Hornets and Grizzlies.

   On the 16th, the Trail Blazers won the game against the Hornets 106-98. Diaw broke out tonight, scoring 11 points, 11 rebounds, 14 assists and 2 steals.

  Guigui encountered Liu Xiu’s sniper attack and scored 15 points and 11 assists, but only had 4 rebounds.

   On the 17th, the Trail Blazers came to the FedEx Arena in Memphis to challenge the Grizzlies away.

   Curry seems to have been pulled **** by a knife tonight...

  When he played against the first man in the league for the first time in the preseason, he played like crazy. He was scared, but he was very angry at being scared, so he used shooting to vent.

This time, after feeling the chasm-like strength gap with the first player in the league, he was very calm. He came off the bench and played 24 minutes. He made 5 of 11 shots, including 2 of 4 three-pointers and 3 of 3. Free throws, 15 points, 2 rebounds and 4 assists, he performed very well, showing his 78 comprehensive ability to the fullest.

but…

   Watching Liu Xiu and Ray Allen throw a total of 17 three-pointers, Ray Allen made 4 of 8 shots and Liu Xiu made 4 of 9 shots.

   Curry likes to shoot three-pointers, but is this how he shoots three-pointers?

  These two, just these two, made more 3-pointers than their entire Grizzlies team!

   Curry's idols are Reggie Miller, Nash, and his father Dell Curry.

   These people are good at three-pointers, and so is he. His philosophy on three-point shooting is the same as these people.

   But tonight, seeing Liu Xiu and Ray Allen's three-point shots... Xiaoku's immature professional basketball is broken!

  108 to 99, the Trail Blazers beat the Grizzlies by 9 points and won 5 consecutive victories!

  After 10 games, the Trail Blazers' record has improved to 7 wins and 3 losses, overwhelming the Timberwolves with the same 7 wins and 3 losses, ranking third in the West!

   Currently the Spurs rank first in the Western Conference with 8 wins and 2 losses.

   The Cavaliers rank first in the league with 10 wins and 1 loss, topping the list.

  Some teams started high and low this year, like the Timberwolves, which started with 5 wins and 0 losses, and went 2 wins and 3 losses after 5 consecutive victories.

  The Lakers, with 4 wins and 1 loss, have a record of 3 wins and 3 losses.

   After the Pistons had 4 wins and 2 losses, they also had a record of 2 wins and 3 losses. They are currently 6 wins and 5 losses.

There are exceptionally stable teams, the Spurs and Cavaliers are representatives, 'no injury' start, the Bulls with 7 wins and 3 losses, the Raptors with 7 wins and 4 losses, and the Mavericks with 8 wins and 3 losses, all performed steadily without too much damage. big ups and downs.

  The Trail Blazers are quite special. After 2 wins and 3 losses, they went on a 5-game winning streak, which can be regarded as 'high volatility'.

  The Trail Blazers were scolded miserably at the beginning. After this wave of 5 consecutive victories, the media began to praise them for "getting out of the shadow of losing the butcher".

   But Liu Xiu's side, he and his teammates have the aura of "soldiers of the king", neither proud of victory nor discouraged by defeat.

   I have won all 73 victories, so 5 consecutive victories is nothing.

They didn't waver at the start of the game with 2 wins and 3 losses. Liu Xiu would occasionally mention it during the preseason. Maybe the start of the new season will be difficult. When the teammates listened, they didn't take it seriously. When it was really difficult , Thinking of this, I feel that they are already mentally prepared.

  The strength of each team this year is more 'balanced'. Looking at the top ten in the Eastern Conference, Liu Xiu feels that every team has the possibility of winning 50 games.

  The top ten in the West also have the strength of 45 wins.

But the bad teams are also badly balanced. They only won 1-2 games. The most outrageous is the Nets, the bottom one in the East and the bottom one in the league. They lost 11 games in a row at the beginning. The losing streak launched an impact posture.

   And... the Jazz started off with 1 win and 9 losses!

   Liu Xiu checked the Jazz's battle report. Well, Paul played 1 game in the first 10 games, and the Jazz only won that game.

   Paul version 1.0, which is as gorgeous as fireworks, has not bloomed yet, so it will be abolished immediately?

   During the offseason, the Jazz took great pains to strengthen the lineup of role players and recruited everywhere, which seems to be a waste of money.

  Paul has now got the nickname 'Glass Man'.

  Liu Xiu understood why when the Hornets were about to change owners in the original time and space, the official operation of hosting the Hornets was to trade away Paul instead of keeping Paul, who was only 26 years old at the golden age of his career, as a selling point.

  In the 10-11 season, Paul came back and won three teams and two defenses. His overall performance was well-performed in the top ten in the league, but no one can guarantee that he can continue to stay healthy.

  In the past two years, Paul really looked like a glass man.

  And the Jazz put more emphasis on defense than the Hornets. Paul's knee and ankle-destroying style of play is similar to that of Iverson and Rose.

  The 5-game streak continued. On the afternoon of the 18th, the Trail Blazers came to the East Coast and rested for the night. On the morning of the 19th, they came to the Time Warner Stadium to prepare for the evening game against the Bobcats.

   After playing 10 games, the coaching staff of the Trail Blazers is already very clear about the situation of this season.

  The plan cannot keep up with the changes. Now, the first thing to do is to win!

  They need to slowly adjust their style of play through a long season like the Spurs in the 05-06 and 06-07 seasons, otherwise the record cannot be guaranteed.

   But their situation is not as good as that of the Spurs. The troika of the Spurs has been used stably for many years. Here, the insiders have left.

   But still the same sentence, looking at the warden, the coaching staff feels at ease.

  And the 34-year-old Ray Allen seems to have a second spring!

  After 10 games, it is not surprising that Liu Xiu averaged 31.5 points per game. Ray Allen averaged 23.6 points per game, which is a new high since he joined the team!

   And what makes Ray Allen feel incredible is that his assists are a career-low average of 2.4 assists per game.

  Because his ball possession rate has dropped to a career low, holding the ball for less than 5 minutes every 48 minutes!

  What is this concept?

  Only Birdman has a lower ball possession rate than Ray Allen! Kwame Brown is slightly taller.

   49% shooting rate is a career high, and 42% three-point shooting rate is also very good.

   This, thanks to Mustache.

  Although the defense was not given up, the offense was inclined to the outside, which gave Mustache a lot of room to play. Not only Ray Allen, Hill, Diaw, and Batum also got a lot of benefits.

  My sister-in-law shed tears when she read the stat sheet and the team handbook after playing 10 games.

  Originally, these were all his! In the end, he was given away by his teammates!

   This is not to blame teammates can only blame themselves.

   dish, let him lose his identity as the core of tactics.

  He finally understood what his brother said—you always said that the opportunity has not yet come to you, just like you, can you grasp the opportunity when it comes?

  This year, opportunities for him and his brother appeared. His brother averaged 18 points, 11.6 rebounds and 3.8 assists in the start, and won 5 consecutive victories in the start.

  As for him, the opportunities were all on his lips, and he didn't bite them.

  The motivation to struggle has increased again.

   After the morning training, Gasol stayed for extra training.

   To his surprise, the warden actually stayed for extra training! I am doing intensive training with Ray Allen on running, catching, turning and shooting!

   What he wants to practice is also a turnaround shot, but it is a turnaround shot when receiving the ball from a high position. The object of his consultation is also Ray Allen.

   I didn't expect the third brother to save trouble, and teach him by the way when teaching the boss!

  Liu Xiu was also very interested in seeing her sister-in-law learn how to turn around and shoot when she was learning to catch the ball, so she followed along to learn... I didn't expect to spend 4,500 healing points to learn this trick.

  Because Ray Allen's technical evaluation and teaching evaluation of turning and shooting are too high, all 90+ evaluations in this aspect start.

  He really missed the time when he was studying with the "universal teacher" Derek Anderson. There were only one single item, and the comprehensive one was only three to five thousand.

  But Derek Anderson's technical training methods are not suitable for him. They can be used as a reference at most, and the upper limit is also low. Some of them are not even as good as watching "standard technical video tapes".

   Teachers with good skills are expensive!

   But even if it is expensive, I only want to order the best one every time.

   This trick, he thinks it might be useful.

  When catching the ball with his back, he didn’t put on a back-up shooting posture at the beginning, and the opponent might think he was going to pass the ball. Wouldn’t it be nice for him to seize the opportunity to turn around and shoot suddenly?

   After Liu Xiu used the fast learning mode to learn the training methods from his teammates, he went to practice on his own.

  Ray Allen has long been accustomed to the speed of the boss, and turned his head to help Gasol Jr. train his turning skills.

  Junior Gasol has studied very hard. He has been studying for several days in the last few match days, and he is about to master the skills initially, and then he will just spend time practicing repeatedly.

   But his mentality is going to collapse now!

  He has been studying for a few days, and the warden came to 'listen' for a while today, and he has already practiced well by the side.

   Is there any justice!

   However, although Gasol was hit hard, he practiced harder.

   Talent is not enough, work hard to make up!

  …

   At 5 o'clock in the evening, the Trail Blazers' away game against the Bobcats started.

  Randy Foye, Raja Bell, Gerald Wallace, Marvin Williams, Tyson Chandler, four-to-one defense, absolutely amazing!

   Also on the bench are Gerald Henderson, DJ Augustin, Stephen Jackson, Nazr Mohammed…

   Under the leadership of Larry Brown, the Bobcats started off pretty well and have the potential to hit the playoffs.

  East hit the playoffs, that is the strength of 50 wins!

  As long as there are no injuries, accidents, internal strife that affect the overall situation, even if they don't get 50 wins, they will not be short of a few games.

  The best performance of the Bobcats this year is...Gerald Wallace, whose overall defensive performance at the beginning beat Duncan and Garnett, and was comparable to James and Artest.

Chandler still looks tepid, but with Gerald Wallace, Marvin Williams, and Muhammad as a substitute, the Bobcats' frontcourt defense performance is enough to match the one-year 1200 Megan re-signed Marion to rival the Raptors.

  This time, the Trail Blazers were forced into a defensive battle, but the Trail Blazers didn't stick to the details.

  After a fierce defensive battle, the Trail Blazers defeated the Bobcats 80-74 and won 6 consecutive victories!

   Liu Xiu scored 28 points, Ray Allen had 15 points, Kwame Brown had 8 points, 17 rebounds, 1 assist, 1 steal and 4 blocks, and the outlaw lunatic had 12 points. The four leaders of the team performed well.

  In this kind of game, Hill has become a big defensive striker. Let’s put the offense aside. Dior will rest tonight, but Batum has shown quite a talent on the defensive end.

  After playing the Bobcats, the Trail Blazers came to Atlanta.

  The butcher entertained some old teammates, but there was an example of the warden getting drunk and depleting the opponent's strength. None of the old teammates had a second glass of wine, which made the butcher very frustrated.

  Liu Xiu feels that there is something wrong with his style review!

  When did he intentionally get drunk and consume the other party?

   That was an accident, okay!

   Butcher, who killed a thousand swords, is actually regretful, and really wants to get them drunk!

   At night, Liu Xiu returned to the hotel and saw a massacre...

  Rookie Brandon Jennings scored 55 points in the game against the Suns, leading the Warriors to a 125-109 upset victory over the Suns.

  Jennings' performance made a fat commentator crazily shout 'Warden'.

   Liu Xiu looked at the photos of his media day this season posted on the TV screen, and wanted to hit the fat man very much!

  I heard that T.N.T has a branch in Atlanta. Tomorrow, T.N.T Sports will broadcast live the game between the Trail Blazers and the Eagles. Do you want to squat?

   That was when he was at his fattest, weighing more than 100 kilograms. There are obviously photos of his peak body that can be used!

   Even if you don’t have the perfect body shape, your current body shape is much better! Must use that one!

  Jennings' 55 points, Liu Xiu did not expect to appear.

   It's time for this to break out...

  He remembers that in the original time and space, Jennings was selected by the Bucks, and he scored a career-best performance of 50+ in a single game when he was playing elementary school students.

   Here, Jennings was selected by the Warriors, but he didn't score 55 points when he was playing a primary school student, which made Liu Xiu quite regretful.

   But if you play against the Grizzlies, not to mention getting 50+, it would be difficult to get 40+. Conley, Battier, the forward-back line defense composed of these two people will have a headache when they see it.

   After a night of rest, on the 21st, the last game day for the Trail Blazers with 5 consecutive away arrived.

  The morning alliance announced the latest best of the week awards.

  Liu Xiu scolded the street...

  In the East, James won all 3 games, averaging 29 points, 5.7 rebounds, 9 assists, 1.3 steals and 0.7 blocks per game, and won the Player of the Week award.

   West, Brandon - Jennings won the award! 2 wins and 1 loss, averaging 35 points, 2 rebounds, 4.7 assists and 3 steals per game.

  His warden won all 4 games last week, averaging 29.5 points, 10.25 rebounds, 5.5 assists, 2.5 steals and 1.5 blocks per game. He didn't win an award!

It must be said that Jennings won the best of the week, which is also reasonable. It seems that Jennings did not only break out in one game last week, with 19 points, 31 points, and 55 points. His performance is on the rise and he is in a hot state. .

  Liu Xiu felt how upset the superstars in the Western Conference were at their peak during his rookie season.

   Jennings also grabbed the best of the week once, and his warden is so irritable.

  And his warden rookie season was the best of the week 5 times. In his rookie year, he tied the record of the best times of the week held by Jordan, Kobe, Robinson, Duncan, etc. at that time.

  At that time, other people must have been more angry.

  Thinking about it this way, Liu Xiu is not so entangled anymore.

  4 consecutive MVPs are not as good as dogs...

  At 6 o'clock in the evening, Liu Xiu, who was sad and indignant about losing Zhou Best, led his teammates to start a duel with the Eagles.

   The last time the Trail Blazers lost, the Eagles defeated them. This time the Eagles want to do it again and sweep the Trail Blazers!

  However, after less than half a month, they played against each other again, and the Eagles players found that the Trail Blazers' style of play has changed a lot.

  The three majors are focused on defense, and the three forwards of extrajudicial fanatics, Hill, and Cunningham have excellent defensive capabilities, which caused a lot of trouble for the Eagles 206 Legion.

  Tonight, the Eagles can only rely on Joe Johnson to prop up the offense and confront the warden!

At this time, Joe Johnson began to miss Bibby. Bibby's steady shooting and excellent ball distribution are obviously better than the rookie Teague, but if he wants to keep Bibby, he will squeeze the time to train Teague .

  In tonight's game, Bibby played, but on the opposite side...

  Joe Johnson not only has to deal with Liu Xiu, but also has to deal with Ray Allen, and Bibby who is angry when he sees his old club.

   The Hawks, eager to sweep the Trail Blazers, performed very hard, but still lost to Liu Xiu's 41 points, Bibby's 7 points and 11 assists, and Ray Allen's 19 points.

99 to 95, the Trail Blazers narrowly beat the Eagles by 4 points. After 5 consecutive away games, the Trail Blazers improved to 9 wins and 3 losses. With the advantage in the middle, they rushed to the first place in the West in one fell swoop!

  After the five consecutive away games, the Trail Blazers returned to Portland and rested for two days. On November 24th, the home team ushered in a focus game-the challenge of the Pistons!

  The Pistons this year are better than people expected during the offseason. They played 13 games and are currently 8 wins and 5 losses, gradually stabilizing.

   Yao Ming averaged 18 points, 11 rebounds, 2 assists and 2 blocks per game. He performed well. The Pistons continued to slow down this year. His scoring declined, but his rebounds reached a career high.

   Gooden averaged 11 points and 7 rebounds per game. This season, he has finally integrated into the Pistons' style of play.

   Many experts regret that if Gooden could integrate last season, then the playoffs may not lose to the Raptors.

There is also Ben Wallace, the basic salary is back, with a salary of more than 10 million US dollars from the Suns, doing dirty work on the bench of the Pistons, playing 19 minutes per game, scoring 2.5 points and 6.5 rebounds 1.2 steals and 1.5 blocks, almost made Suns coach Gentry cry!

   Isn't it good to keep it as a substitute?

  Although the 35-year-old Ben Wallace can no longer fly all over the sky, his self-proclaimed 206 cm height and muscular body are still no slower than most small forwards! It's just that explosive power and bullet speed have declined with age.

   On the perimeter, the 33-year-old Billups seems to have reached his peak, averaging 20.1 points, 3 rebounds and 6.2 assists per game, becoming the Pistons' scoring leader.

   Carter is in a serious decline, averaging 13 points, 5 rebounds and 2 assists per game.

  The 24-year-old Prince has surpassed Carter, averaging 14 points and 6 rebounds per game.

   There are Stuckey, Jerebko, Maxhill, Villanueva and others on the bench.

  In this "China Derby" with the Pistons, the Trail Blazers fell into the quagmire of a defensive battle. The super backcourt fired repeatedly from the outside, but the crosshairs were affected.

81 to 87, the Trail Blazers lost at home, the end of the 7-game winning streak, and suffered the fourth loss of the season. Was tied by the Lakers.

  Yao Ming laughed so hard that Liu Xiu couldn't help asking why the bald headed Crawford didn't give a technical offender. Crawford almost gave Liu Xiu two whistles, but the game was over, so he could only endure it.

  Tonight Yao Ming made 7 of 13 shots and 3 of 4 free throws. He scored 17 points, 14 rebounds, 1 assist and 3 blocks. His performance was quite good.

  Liu Xiu scored 30 points, 11 rebounds, 5 assists, 2 steals and 2 blocks. In the end, she couldn't get up, and she lost.

  Failed to continue the winning streak, the overall mood of the Trail Blazers was okay and stable.

   Of course, when chatting privately, there will still be people complaining.

  In this case, the new players, even Bibby, don’t quite understand why Kwame Brown, Birdman, Dragic, Korver and others think this record is not good enough…

On the 26th, the Trail Blazers came to the Oracle Arena in Oakland, relying on Liu Xiu's 42 points, 6 rebounds and 4 assists, Ray Allen's 28 points, Hill's 17 points and 7 assists, Batum's 9 points and 7 assists... with 118 points 104 beat the Warriors and won the 10th victory of the season!

   On the 28th, the Trail Blazers returned home and lost to the Timberwolves 88 to 99. The winning streak against the Timberwolves was ended.

  Evans' body, Liu Xiu reckoned that he would not be able to handle it even in his rookie year.

  Evans scored 16 points, 6 rebounds, 8 assists and 1 steal tonight.

   In the first two matches, Evans also scored 12 points, 7 assists and 15 points, 6 rebounds and 3 assists.

  Just looking at personal ability, Evans reminded Liu Xiu of LeBron James and Anthony in his rookie year, better than Paul, Roy, Durant... and others in their rookie seasons!

  The Timberwolves gave up Blake, and there was no need to make a transition to Evans as the core point guard. Liu Xiu felt that the logo man had a sharp eye for this operation!

  Blake is excellent, but compared with Evans, even Blake's best stability is not Evans' opponent.

   Of course, the strongest Timberwolves team is Roy.

  True - the second shooting guard in the West!

  The core combination of Evans, Roy, and Gasol, coupled with Luol Deng, an All-Star marginal striker.

   Another championship team in the West is rising!

   On the 30th, on the last game day of this month, the Trail Blazers ushered in a challenge from the powerful Bulls in the East at home.

I thought it would be a fierce battle, but in the end, Liu Xiu scored 35 points, 14 rebounds and 11 assists, Ray Allen 25 points, Hill 6 points, 4 rebounds and 4 assists, Kwame Brown 12 points and 8 rebounds, and the extrajudicial lunatic 18 points, Korver 12 points, Bibby 9 points and 3 assists...

  The Trail Blazers slaughtered the Bulls 122 to 98, improving their record to 11 wins and 5 losses!

  The Bulls look like they are going to collapse tonight!

I didn’t notice this trend of the Bulls before. Liu Xiu went to check the situation of the Bulls after the game... only to find out that before the Bulls played against them, although the record was 11 wins and 4 losses, which was solid and excellent, they won 11 Nine of the opponents in the game are currently ranked outside the top eight teams in the East and West.

  The Bulls' opening schedule is the easiest in the league! There is only one back-to-back, and it is still back-to-back at home.

   The 4 opponents who lost, the Cavaliers, Raptors, Pistons, and Magic happened to be the other 4 championship teams in the East, and none of them won!

   Now, their prison team also defeated the Bulls. Is the Bulls going to start losing to the Western Conference championship team?

  The reason why the Bulls have such a situation is also very simple-Garnett and Pierce, who have not won a championship for many years and are gradually aging, have already begun to agitate!
