Healing Basketball

   Chapter 245 245. Assists come too easy

  Liu Xiu ran out of the player tunnel, and the cheers on the scene rose from wave to wave.

   After not showing his face in public for a few days, the supportive enthusiasm of the Blazers fans has not declined, but has become more and more surging!

   Feeling earth-shattering!

   Legend has it that their warden actually trained hard for the playoffs!

   I heard that it is a fallback jump shot?

  Although not many people believed it, there was some news that a serious player should have.

   In the playoffs, the Trail Blazers still played regardless of starting and benching. When the butcher ended, there was another burst of crazy cheers.

   After the players of the two teams entered the field, the cheerleading team performed another round of performances, and NBA vice president Adam Joke came out to present the Pacific Division regular season championship flag to the Trail Blazers.

The    division championship flag was raised, and the fans cheered again.

   Unlike the Lakers and Celtics, which have so many division championship flags that it is not uncommon to hang them over the court, for most teams, this is already a very rare honor.

   At least half of the teams have never touched the regional championship flag.

   It may be possible to make the playoffs, it may rush to the second round, and it may be possible to upset the division finals, but the division champion of the regular season has to maintain a strong competitiveness in the long season.

  The players of the two teams did not have any greetings before the game. The Grizzlies players wanted to say hello, but before they passed the midline, they felt murderous eyes.

   Amid the uncontrollable cheers of the fans at the scene, the pre-match preparation time was almost over, and the referee informed the two teams to start the game.

   Gasol is still thinking about playing in the playoffs for the first time. He is going to say hello to the other side. Everyone is a playoff player.

   He walked over from the technical desk, and when he was approaching the bench on the opposite side, he heard the prison team's second-old butcher make a pre-match mobilization:

   "Did you know, the group of rookies in the playoffs opposite said we were the easiest opponent to beat in the first round!"

   "They humiliated the warden and said the warden was useless to them."

   "It's time for them to suffer..."

Gasol was about to explode on the spot, ready to retort 'When did we say this?'... The other party turned around and stared at him like a roe deer. He didn't move his upper body and stepped back to the other side of the technical table. .

  Is Randolph talking nonsense when he mobilizes his teammates? No, the Grizzlies expressed in an interview that compared with other teams, they have more favorable conditions against the Blazers; their general manager himself said that they have white chocolate... He just exaggerated it a bit.

   It's about to play the playoffs, and everyone is very excited. Coupled with the fire that Randolph has set on, the enthusiasm and competitiveness of the teammates have exploded!

  …

  The game is about to start, and the referee informs both teams to start.

  Liu Xiu rubbed magnesium powder in front of the technical table and chose the copy objects, Randolph and Mike Miller.

   "The Great Mage:

  …

Opponent: Mike Miller, characteristic transformation talent: expert in catching and shooting, bonus effect: mid-to-long shot within 2 seconds of catching the ball, if you shoot directly without dribbling, the shooting speed will increase by 25% without affecting the shooting itself; mid- and long-distance fixed-point catch When the ball is shooting, if it is in the neutral position and has time to make a complete shooting action, it must be in a hot state. "

  The Grizzlies sent a starting combination of Jason Williams, Mike Miller, James Posey, Lorenzen Wright, and Gasol.

  The Blazers sent a starting combination of Liu Xiu, Ruben Patterson, Miles, Randolph, and McDyess.

   Looking at Gasol, Randolph had a big head. Despite his roaring excitement just now, the Blazers had the least confidence in the matchup, but he was the one.

   Against Gasol, his offensive power has been weakened by half!

   At 7 p.m., the referee blew the whistle to start the game, Lorenzen Wright narrowly beat Miles to win the jump ball, and the series between the Blazers and the Grizzlies started!

  The Trail Blazers started hand-to-hand combat directly!

Randolph entangled with Lorenzen Wright, who won the jump ball, with his excellent speed and flexibility; McDyess fought Gasol fiercely; Miles and Ruben Patterson also respectively Hand-to-hand defense against Mike Miller and James Posey.

  White chocolate was the worst, and encountered Liu Xiu's oppressive defense!

  White Chocolate can feel it, this rookie defense has made significant progress compared to two months ago!

   Fortunately, the white chocolate is very stable now, and the ball was hoisted to Gasol, who was entangled in McDyess and came to the free throw line.

  Gasol raised the ball, bullied McDyess with his tall wingspan, and gave the ball to Lorenzen Wright on the flank.

Just now, Lorenzen Wright gave Mike Miller a pick-and-roll, Randolph switched to Mike Miller, Ruben Patterson shrunk, Lorenzen Wright was empty, and the left side of the three-second area received a shot. shot...

   Originally, the mid-range shot was not that good, and the 34% hit rate was enough to shoot. He was still fighting with Randolph in the first two seconds, and now the mid-range shot is iron!

   Gasol rushes to no avail, Ruben Patterson protects the defensive rebound.

   Offense and defense transition, the Blazers attack.

  Randolph squeezed Gasol under the basket when he got to the frontcourt.

   Gasol had a question mark on his head, but watching Liu Xiu's return and serve at full speed, Gasol had to fight for the position with Randolph.

  White Chocolate's defense was very stable by Hubie Brown, averaging a career-low steals per game and a career-high defensive efficiency, and steadily blocked Liu Xiu from beyond the three-point line.

Liu Xiu didn't stop, he pulled horizontally and changed direction to the right, White Chocolate followed steadily, Liu Xiu continued to pull a step to the right, White Chocolate was fully focused, and didn't do that kind of reverse defense... blocked. !

   Liu Xiu accelerated with a leap, and used Miles to cover and break into the inside line!

Lorenzen Wright blocked a step inside the free throw line, Gasol also took two steps up, and Randolph, who was just fighting for the position, was almost knocked down by the 'withdrawal chair', and he didn't respond at all. What's going on here.

   Liu Xiu and McDyess reacted, and the air connection... McDyess took off hard and pressed the ball into the basket with one hand.

   The body movements of this dunk are very stretched, quite a bit like the "League's First Spring Man" back then.

   Hearing the fans cheering for McDyess, Randolph who retreated was envious.

   The ball just now, his chances should be better, but he didn't react just now.

   retreated to the backcourt and waited for Lorenzen Wright to come over, Randolph fought with more rude moves!

   This is the process of testing the referee's whistle-blowing scale. The referee did not sound the whistle and did not mean to warn. Randolph knew that it was not over yet, so he could continue to test.

  The top arc pressed Liu Xiu, who was defending White Chocolate, doing the same thing as Randolph.

  White chocolate is ready, take a step away and make a breakthrough!

   failed to get rid of Liu Xiu!

  White Chocolate was surprised to find that his speed advantage against Liu Xiu was gone. Not only was it gone, it seemed that the opponent's rookie's movement ability was a little faster than him!

  James Posey came to respond, Miles blocked James Posey's shot well, but the breakthrough space was exposed, and he was still much worse than the extrajudicial fanatic in single defense.

   But Randolph + McDyess has done a good job in defense.

  Randolph blocked, McDyess interfered, James Posey broke through to a close-range pull-up jumper!

  Liu Xiu, who received a step inside the free throw line, held Lorenzen Wright and triggered the "rock solid", which greatly reduced the impact of the take-off caused by the card confrontation, and grabbed the defensive rebound.

   The Grizzlies quickly retreated to avoid being counterattacked by Liu Xiu.

   Live fans cheered loudly!

   They are also very worried about the butcher being restrained by Gasol.

  Maurice-Cheeks said this in an interview, saying that there is already a way to deal with it.

   This is how the Blazers deal with their strongest star Randolph being restrained by Gasol!

   Not so subtle, but it looks like it works!

   But this style of play definitely hurts others and hurts yourself. Anyone who understands the ball knows that in a battle of iron and blood, in the end, it is to see which star can score more stably, and role players will have a hard time expecting…

As soon as the fans at the scene had new concerns about their own team, they saw Liu Xiu running off the ball and slipping off the baseline from the right side of the three-second zone to receive the ball. After receiving the ball in one step, he jumped directly, and he scored two points in the gliding dunk.

  The fans who know the ball at the scene felt slapped in the face, but they wanted to take the initiative to stretch out the other side of the face to be beaten!

   Just Randolph received the ball in a low position, Liu Xiu came out around the baseline, and Gasol couldn't help but made up for Liu Xiu who was around the baseline...

  The fans underestimate their warden! The warden fought the Grizzlies, and the threat was increased by N times!

  logo male and Mickey Mouse, the teams of the general manager who refused Liu Xiu to join, were scored 52 and 62 points by Liu Xiu respectively.

  The Lakers players can face off calmly, but the Grizzlies players can't!

   The Lakers have Kobe Bryant who can compete with Liu Xiu, but the Grizzlies don't!

   Hubby Brown jumped and howled on the sidelines and walked into the court, but the referee did not whistle, and even wanted to appease the old man.

   This white-haired, wrinkled old coach, the referee is really afraid that a whistle will send this old man away.

   Hubby-Brown is really annoyed.

   He knew that there was such an emotion in the team, and repeatedly told the players not to pay too much attention to Liu Xiu on the defensive end, but now that he looked at it this way, his warning was in vain.

  The Trail Blazers lead 4-0!

   When the Grizzlies attacked, they were 4 points behind. The defense was not calm, but Gasol was calm on the offensive end and knew that he needed to stand up and stabilize the situation at this time.

Gasol came to the low post on the left side of the three-second zone and leaned on McDyess to ask for the ball. McDyess defended very roughly, but Gasol’s low singles skills were excellent, and he found a turning opportunity steadily, walked on the line, and took the initiative to stay away from the basket. One step, take off, take off...

  Technology is good, but iron!

  Randolph guards the defensive rebound!

   was consumed by McDyess when attacking, and was consumed by Randolph in hand-to-hand combat in the past two rounds of defense, Gasol has no touch!

   As for why Gasol didn't pull out to defend McDyess, the Grizzlies' interior defense would be useless! Which coach would point to Lorenzen Wright's rim protection?

  The old coach Hubby Brown didn't jump this time. He found a big problem - his team did not have a qualified leader!

  …

  …

  I went back to my hometown today, and I took the car for an afternoon. It was more tiring than the code word o(╥﹏╥)o

   There is no update today, and the update will be suspended for one day~ There will be two guaranteed updates tomorrow, plus it depends on the situation, thank you!
