Healing Basketball

   Chapter 250 250. Stamp for the family sister-in-law!

  This situation is expected, after all, they are the rare team in NBA history that can drag the series to the Game 7 after falling behind 0-3 at the start.

  Under the leadership of the coaching staff and veteran players of the team, the Blazers did not slack off in their preparations.

   At 7 p.m., with Miles narrowly outscoring Lorenzen Wright on a jump ball, the Trail Blazers' away series Game 3 against the Grizzlies kicked off!

  Lorenzen-Wright didn't have time to meet Miles' eyes as worthy of being my opponent when he was stuck by Randolph.

   Gasol was also entangled by McDyess. He had an obvious speed disadvantage and could not get rid of it at all. He could only be forced to confront and find opportunities.

  Led by Randolph and McDyess, the Blazers have another tough defensive battle!

  The Grizzlies didn't hesitate, seeing the Blazers play like this, they took the initiative to keep up.

   Under the current rules, if a team wants to fight a **** battle and has the ability to play, the opponent can only keep up unless the offense is as good as the Kings before Webber's comeback, or as unstoppable as the Lakers.

   If you don’t follow, you will suffer.

   This is the reason why the league directly prohibits 'hand-check'. In the past 10 years of development, the coaches have thoroughly understood the iron and blood tactics, and anyone can play with the right lineup.

   Tonight, the Grizzlies finally came to their senses, stopped staring at Liu Xiu alone, and chose normal defense.

   Liu Xiu started looking for opportunities to score two main goals, a low post turnaround jumper and a European step. Heck, he didn't score, allowing the Grizzlies to truly enter a normal defensive mode.

   Halfway through the first quarter, Liu Xiu missed another shot and went 0 for 3. He unilaterally declared in his heart that he failed to set the record of God today.

   However, his shots are all necessary shots. As before, there is no situation where he is stunned to shoot. It does not have much negative impact on the team's overall offense, but instead maintains the stable operation of the tactics.

   It's not just that the Blazers can't make the shot, and the Grizzlies can't make the same shot.

   After the official suspension came back, Liu Xiu was replaced, and the dual-back combination of Momo and Derek Anderson was replaced.

   The performance is not good, and the warden has to be replaced for a while.

   At 11 minutes and 46 seconds of the first quarter, Gasol made a foul and made two free throws. The Grizzlies led the Blazers 18-16 by 2 points.

   Taking advantage of Gasol's free throw, the Blazers replaced the combination of Liu Xiu, Momo, Harrington, Raheem, and Randolph.

  Raheem and Randolph were full of shock threats. Momonga and Harrington started a sudden point + auxiliary control play. Liu Xiu seized the opportunity to come to the bottom corner on the right, and Harrington's second pass was timely and in place.

  Liu Xiu catches the ball and shoots a three-pointer...in!

  'Catch and Shoot Expert''s free catch-and-shoot feel hot bonus is here!

   As the Grizzlies missed a three-pointer at halftime and the first quarter ended, the Trail Blazers led the Grizzlies 19-18 by 1 point and entered the break!

  …

   Back at home, with their own fans cheering, the Grizzlies players have a different mentality.

   Changed the first two games, and finally Liu Xiu scored such a three-pointer to overtake the score. Their mentality will definitely fluctuate violently.

   But tonight they looked at this quite calmly. After the second quarter of the game, they continued the offensive and defensive rhythm of the first quarter, and increased their investment on the offensive end!

  The turning point of the game came back after the official suspension in the second quarter. Hubie Brown’s tactics were exquisite, creating two three-pointers from the bottom corner for Battier, and Battier made two shots!

   This wave of 6-0 ignited the morale of the Grizzlies. At the end of the second quarter, the Grizzlies led the Trail Blazers by 10 points 47-37! 29 to 18 in a single quarter!

However, when it came to the critical moment, when Liu Xiu once again took advantage of the cover to run around the bottom line for a three-pointer, the Grizzlies players still unconsciously cut Liu Xiu's pass to catch the ball and blocked Liu Xiu's shot after receiving the ball... No way, the shadow is too deep.

   At the end of the second quarter, Rahim, who replaced Randolph, cut into the middle to receive the ball, and Gasol smashed the ball into the basket through the supplementary defense.

   The whistle sounded, Gasol fouled, Raheem scored a dunk, and a penalty was added!

As Raheem added a penalty and scored, Battier caught the ball at the last moment and missed a long two-point shot from Harrington. After halftime, the Grizzlies led the Trail Blazers 47-40 and entered the center by 7 points. field break.

  …

   6 points, 5 rebounds, 3 assists and 2 steals at halftime. Liu Xiu was severely limited in scoring tonight, but he has been doing what he should do.

   The data is not great, but the comments from the TV commentators during the intermission are quite good.

  Liu Xiu's shooting was restricted so badly, which made his combing and attacking effect worse. Everyone could see this, but he didn't let himself become the point that the Grizzlies could use to target and break!

   This rookie is really too stable. He is a player who scored 62 points in a single game. In the playoffs, he can only average 10 shots per game!

   Tonight, too, only 7 shots in the half, 4 in the first quarter and 3 in the second.

   And this is where Hubby Brown, the oldest coach in the Grizzlies locker room, hurts.

   He wanted to use Liu Xiu as a breakthrough. From the beginning, he saw that Liu Xiu was no longer in the state of the end of the regular season, but Liu Xiu did not decline like other rookies. After that, he had to 'prove himself'.

Hubby Brown is really helpless now, they are leading by 7 points, right, but the rebounding ratio in the first half is 15 to 24, they rebounded 9 fewer than the opponent, Gasol has 2 rebounds in the half, and the offensive end is better. Consumed by McDyess or Raheem, and on the defensive end by Randolph or Harrington, two and a half games into the series, less than 10 rebounds combined...

   They led by making 7 of 11 threes at halftime!

  When the Blazers adjusted to the iron-blooded play, the advantage of the Grizzlies' center position was greatly weakened.

   The Trail Blazers, although it was painful to be behind by 7 points at halftime, lost the feeling of how to play in the first two games, but they were mentally prepared and led 2-0 without panic!

   Liu Xiu was a little anxious, but he knew very well that the more he did, the more calm he had to be in order to find opportunities.

   In the third quarter, the chance for the warden still didn’t come... There were only 3 chances to shoot in a single quarter, 2 missed, 1 foul and 2 free throws, no other points, but 2 steals! And the team's defense is excellent!

   In this quarter, the Grizzlies made 2 of 5 three-pointers, but only 8 of 19 shots in the whole quarter, and only 1 of 2 free throws, and only scored 19 points in a single quarter.

  The Blazers scored 21 points in a single quarter, led by Liu Xiu Harrington with 7 points, 1 rebound and 1 assist.

   At the end of the three quarters, the score was 61 to 66, and the difference was reduced to 5 points!

  …

  Be patient in the game. Liu Xiu's patience has always satisfied the Blazers coaching staff, and he will be even more satisfied in the playoffs.

Tonight Liu Xiu played a total of 21 minutes in the first three quarters. If he needs to fight, he will be replaced. If not, he will be replaced. Even so, he is still conscientiously doing what the coaching staff arranges, and trying to sort out the attack and flank defense. Better defense.

   Even if he only scored 8 points on 3-of-10 shooting in the three quarters, his performance of 8 rebounds, 5 assists and 4 steals made good use of the rhythm of the iron-blooded confrontation on the court and the defense that the opponent still attached great importance to him.

   The Grizzlies' low emphasis on Liu Xiu's defense is compared with the previous two games. Really, the Grizzlies' emphasis on Liu Xiu's defense is definitely not the degree of emphasis they should have on a player who shoots 3-for-10 from the field.

   Back from the break, the Blazers sent a combination of Liu Xiu, Derek Anderson, Raheem, Randolph, and McDyess.

  The Grizzlies sent a combination of Earl Watson, Mike Miller, Shane Battier, Swift, and Gasol.

chances are for people who are prepared.

  The Trail Blazers attacked, Liu Xiu shot straight to the basket, Europe stepped up, Gasol turned around and made up the defense a beat, Liu Xiu jumped and hit the basket, 63 to 66, and the difference was reduced to 3 points!

   When the Grizzlies attacked, Gasol turned over and hit a jumper in a post-up single, and returned with color.

   Gasol is the leader of the new generation of power forwards in the league, and Liu Xiu is known as the 'first rookie in history'.

  Tonight's game was so intense, the Grizzlies captain kept the lead for time, Gasol responded with a ball, and the fans on the scene shouted "Jailor".

   Liu Xiu really went to the low position and sat down! Back fight!

   Gasol is smart and knows that Liu Xiu wants to attract him to attack.

Liu Xiu pre-judged Gasol's pre-judgment, received the ball decisively and singled, and did not act like the first two low-post backs to be afraid of who and who, turned over, made a jumper and made a jumper...Earl Watson's height and wingspan He was losing weight, and Liu Xiu was still leaning back. He had nothing to do. All he could do was rely on his 88kg weight to prevent Liu Xiu from turning around and making a layup.

   When the ball was thrown, Liu Xiu was thrown, and the second-place blocker of the parallel imports missed, and was dodged by Liu Xiu's back.

   With the whistle of the referee, the ball falls into the box.

  The goal is valid and the penalty will be added!

   There were bursts of scolding at the scene!

  Although the fans at the scene shouted Liu Xiu's nickname, they wanted to make Liu Xiu irrational. They could see clearly that Liu Xiu's performance was not good tonight.

   When they saw Liu Xiu go to the low post, many people on the scene felt that even though Liu Xiu was mature and had unlimited talent, he was still too young to be on the stage of the playoffs.

   But it’s not that the top is not important anymore, people have invested in it!

  Liu Xiu walked to the free throw line, and the fans on the scene booed wildly, but Liu Xiu steadily added a penalty hit, 66 to 68, and the point difference was reduced to 2 points!

opportunity finally arises! After Liu Xiu scored 5 points in a row, the score increased to 13 points, second only to Rahim's 16 points, the second highest in the team.

   When the Grizzlies attacked, Liu Xiu continued to lead the entire team to play with iron and blood.

  Earl Watson advanced to the frontcourt and was entangled by Liu Xiu. Isn't this rookie tired... Oh, by the way, this is a rookie who can spit Kobe out, **** Falco!

   The team's offense can't be stopped, and the first three quarters are desperate to run for three-pointers. Even if the Grizzlies feel really good in three-pointers, they can't run now under the exhaustion of the Blazers' hand-to-hand combat.

  The ball continued to come to Gasol. Gasol played singles against McDyess. He couldn't squeeze in when he turned around, so he could only turn around and come back.

  Randolph guarded the defensive rebound, the Grizzlies retreated quickly, Liu Xiu was not in a hurry and fell into a positional battle.

  The Grizzlies' defense is ready, and Gasol is ready to make up for Liu Xiu to continue to drop.

But Liu Xiu didn't go to the low post after giving the ball to Derek Anderson. Derek Anderson broke through with McDyess's pick-and-roll. McDyess helped Derek Anderson's pick-and-roll and turned to the left corner of the free throw line to help Raheem. Blocking Shane, Raheem used a screen to go around the free throw line and cut in the middle, and Earl Watson moved ahead to block it.

  Derrick Anderson stopped the ball, not a shot, or a pass to Raheem to use his height to hit Earl Watson on the perimeter.

   hit the ground to pass the ball to the left bottom line, Liu Xiu received the ball, jumped behind Gasol, rode on Gasol's back and smashed the ball into the basket!

  Time Warner Cable Sports commentator Bill Walton shouted: "It's stamped! The general recognized Gasol's strength and stamped Gasol!"
