Healing Basketball

   Chapter 606 606. The No. 1 draft pick by KO

   13 consecutive victories!

   After the final whistle sounded, Liu Xiu still had lingering fears.

   The demon sword in the second section is really scary!

   The Spurs' defense in the second quarter was the best in the game. In fact, the Trail Blazers also played their best defense in the second quarter, but it was blown up by Ginobili alone.

  Although his Warden had 10 points and 5 assists in a single quarter in the third quarter, he had to admit that his explosive performance in the third quarter was actually not as good as Yaodao's performance in the second quarter.

   Although the Spurs players worked hard to implement Popovich's philosophy of 'ignoring the threat of overtaking', in fact, it will still be affected to some extent.

  The deterrent force he brings to the Spurs with 10 points in a single quarter is definitely stronger than the deterrent force that Yaodao gives them to the Blazers in a single quarter, and his assists will be easier than Yaodao.

   Just after the game against the Spurs, Liu Xiu began to look forward to the next match against the Spurs.

  Stone Buddha, Yaodao, sports car, the peak period of the troika can be experienced gradually, Liu Xiu feels so happy!

  …

On the afternoon of the second day after playing the Spurs, the Trail Blazers left the Southwest without stopping and came to Oklahoma City, where the basketball atmosphere was hot this year. In the last game away, it's game day with the Hornets.

The Hornets, who are looking forward to becoming a championship contender like the Spurs after taking down Duncan White, have now begun to compete for the next superstar embryo, regarded as the 'next Nowitzki' Italian insider Andrea Ba Niani.

After playing more than 30 games, Bogut's performance has disappointed the Hornets management. Bogut has averaged 9.5 points, 7 rebounds and 0.8 blocks per game so far this season.

Sugar Man is so famous as the No. 1 pick in parallel imports. He actually averaged 8.9 points, 7.9 rebounds and 1.2 blocks per game in his rookie season. As a rookie who was compared with Duncan, Bogut's current evaluation is better than Liu Xiu's impression of helping the Warriors in the future. Bogut was much worse when he won the championship, and the name of parallel imports has been hung up.

Looking at Bogut in front of him, Liu Xiu remembered that there were rumors in China that Bogut was stronger than Yao Ming... Yao Ming's 7-year career had five best lineups, two of which were in the second team, and Bogut's entire career was only once. Three rounds…

   At 7 p.m., the Trail Blazers' away game against the Hornets began.

  The fans on the scene tonight are a bit special. The Blazers players feel like they are playing in New York. Although the fans of Oklahoma City are enthusiastic, they are not enthusiastic about the Hornets, but they are particularly enthusiastic about the visiting Blazers.

The Hornets' poor performance makes it difficult to get the approval of Oklahoma City fans. The most important thing is that Oklahoma City knows that the Hornets will definitely leave here, and it is impossible to stay. But the geographical environment is good, the economy will recover quickly, and the owner of the Hornets secretly despises the city, and can't wait to move back to the South Coast immediately... So although the Hornets' games are often full, the attendance rate this season is among the top five in the league. , but the Hornets players were not happy, and the fans came to cheer their opponents.

   In the cheers of the fans on the scene, the Blazers players played very hard, because the warden said, "Let's conquer the fans in the new city", and the teammates were excited.

   However, Liu Xiu regretted it less than half-time after saying this.

   Before halftime, he played for 15 minutes, scored 11 points, 2 rebounds and 6 assists, and was taken off to rest and never played again.

The overly enthusiastic Trail Blazers beat the Hornets 30-17 in the first quarter, leading by 13 points in a single quarter. After the start of the second quarter, the Blazers directly played a wave of 15-5, widening the point difference to 23 points, 45-22. lead.

   At this time, Liu Xiu was replaced because the Hornets were too rough.

  Maurice-Cheeks is not worried about Liu Xiu being bullied, but worried that Liu Xiu will be provoked and beat people.

   After they beat the Hornets tonight, they have won 14 straight games...

  …

  Liu Xiu was replaced, and the Trail Blazers did not stop to widen the point difference, and they beat the Hornets in a 15-6 half quarter.

   At the end of the first half, the Blazers led the Hornets 60-28 by 32 points.

With a score like this, Liu Xiu, Ray Allen, and Randolph collectively clocked in at halftime, but even if they didn't play, the point difference continued to widen in the third quarter.

Then, the Australians began to be dishonest, and the dirty little actions continued. Raheem, McDyess, Mourning and others were not good babies. They resolutely responded to each other's small actions. In the second half of the third quarter, the conflict still happened. .

  Bogut and Mourning clashed and scuffled together!

   But the conflict came and went quickly, Mourning punched Bogut on the chin to complete the KO!

Before the    conflict expanded into a brawl, it was ended by Mo Ning's powerful fighting power.

The Hornets rabble just got a little overboard under Bogut and really wanted to 'knock down the Blazers players to avenge their bullying', but when the leader got knocked out, the Hornets all calmed down, look Look at Liu Xiu and Randolph who stood up on the sidelines, and then look at Mourning, who was directly ejected by the referee...

A serious question comes to the minds of the Hornets players - they have 14 players on the team, 1 is in the G League, 1 is down, and there are 12 players. Can the remaining 12 players beat the 3 players on the opposite side? ?

  Mourning KO Bogut, not a calm behavior, but it made everyone calm down and played a little more than the rest of the game.

In the third quarter, the Trail Blazers led the Hornets 27-21, and the score was 87-49. The score difference came to 38 points. The Trail Blazers did not have so much enthusiasm in the final quarter. They only scored 20 points in a single quarter, but the Hornets did this Never beat the Blazers, only scored 19 points, and the difference was opened by another point.

  In the end, the Trail Blazers, who only scored 107 points, had as many as 7 players in double figures, 107 to 68, and the Hornets scored 39 points!

  …

   14 consecutive victories!

   Just 1 game away from the Pistons' longest winning streak of the season! The Blazers have finally become the focus of basketball fans again, but at this moment, what fans are discussing more is not their 14-game winning streak, but Mourning knocking Bogut out.

   The name of all the villains in Portland is once again true!

   The next morning, the league announced the penalty decision. Bogut, who took the lead, was suspended for 3 games, and Mourning was suspended for 10 games.

At noon, Paul Allen slammed the league's penalty decision in the media - "10 game suspension? Are they crazy? This can also be suspended for 10 games? Jayce's previous fight was worse than this, but the suspension was not that long! "

  When the boss's remarks reached the ears of the Blazers players, everyone was speechless except speechless.

   Liu Xiu, who was lying on the gun inexplicably, felt that the boss was his biggest black fan!

   But seeing that the big dog has already helped his warden get new salary terms, he endured it.

   However, the owner's bizarre remarks made the atmosphere in the Blazers team a lot more relaxed.

  In the afternoon, the Blazers took the 'Rose Bay Prison' back to Portland.

   Seeing that Liu Xiu did not play cards with everyone, nor sat in the corner to watch the video, but looked out the window with the best view, Ray Allen left his exclusive seat and came to Liu Xiu.

   "Warden, are you worried about the next game?" Ray Allen asked in a flat tone.

   Liu Xiu didn't look back and replied, "Sure enough, the accident and tomorrow don't know which will come first. We have been injured a lot recently, and now our very important backup center has been suspended for 10 games..."

Ray Allen was silent for a while, and said, "I have wronged you recently. For the sake of the team, you even gave up competing with Bryant. You have the ability to get back the single-game scoring record, and you go to compete with him regardless. And no one would think it was wrong.”

   "You really look up to me." Liu Xiu turned her head and gave Ray Allen a blank look, then leaned back in the chair and didn't look out the window again.

  Ray Allen followed Liu Xiu's line of sight to see Mourning who was playing cards with his teammates.

Ray Allen shook his head: "I used to admire Alonzo, but now I find that he is just a simple-minded person. Although he is just a substitute, he should understand how important he is to the team now, not so much. Impulsive, since his impulsiveness has caused the team to suffer huge losses, he should take the initiative to stand up and admit his mistakes and apologize to his teammates."

   Liu Xiu did not follow up. There are some things that black people can say by themselves, just like black people can buy watermelons and eat them, and they can call each other nuns, but people of other skin colors can’t say it.

  Liu Xiu took the initiative to digress the topic: "Ray, you are too strict, you can't ask a player who still maintains pride, self-esteem, and heroism after playing in the NBA for more than ten years to apologize at this time."

  Lei-Allen felt that Liu Xiu was in a much better mood. Although there was no topic to soothe depression, finding a topic to chat casually was the best way to soothe depression.

  Ray Allen asked, "Do you want to beat the Pistons' 15-game winning streak, Warden?"

  Liu Xiu did not deny it, nodded and replied: "Yes, I talked to the butcher about this, and we set a small goal to win 16 consecutive victories first."

   16-game winning streak is just a small goal... This time Ray Allen's turn is under pressure.

   It is an honor to be teammates with this guy in front of me!

   After sighing in his heart, Ray Allen's expression became solemn: "Warden, it is very difficult for us to complete this small goal now, and we may lose the next two opponents!"

"How can anything go so smoothly from the beginning to the end? If it were that simple, the Lakers' 16-game winning streak in 2000 would have been broken long ago. If we can do it, we will open champagne to celebrate. If we can't do it, we will Just start all over again.”

  Lei-Allen watched Liu Xiu say these words with a smile, and woke up abruptly - it was me who came to comfort the young man! Why did it suddenly become that I was bound by pressure, and how did it become this young man to ease my emotions?

   "Healing value +71, from Ray Allen."

  Liu Xiu: ? ? ? ?
