   "He's not like Kobe, he's more scary than Kobe.

  Kobe You know he's going to score, because he doesn't score. The Lakers don't have any way to win. Although it's hard to guard against him, we at least have a clear goal.

The warden is different, the warden has better teammates, he has more options to do, and he is very good at using his threats to create scoring opportunities for his teammates. As opponents, although we know his purpose, we don't have any. The way, because he can really get 70+ points, Tony and Manu's reaction is normal, the warden just got 76 points, anyone would make the same choice as them..."

  On the evening of January 14th, in Room 04 on the 4th floor of the Bay Hotel near the Golden Gate Bridge in San Francisco, Liu Xiu was watching TV, an exclusive interview with Duncan this morning.

   Although we played back-to-back yesterday and the day before yesterday, we didn’t have a chance to rest. After having lunch at noon today, I came here with the team and went to Oakland tomorrow to start another back-to-back, or a back-to-back away game.

After the Blazers' 10-game winning streak, the Spurs were seen as the top team most likely to end the Trail Blazers' winning streak, but they lost both times against the Blazers, and for the same reason .

   To this, Duncan responded in an exclusive interview with ESPN, and Liu Xiu turned on the TV only after seeing ESPN's promotion.

   Duncan's response to this incident was similar to what Liu Xiu thought.

   This facial paralysis will not be as tough as his warden, nor will he evade responsibility or reason, but will explain the actual situation.

   On the afternoon of the next day, Liu Xiu accompanied the team to the Oakland Arena in Oakland City next door to prepare for the game.

   I arrived at the away game yesterday and only started preparing for the game this afternoon. Liu Xiu feels very fresh. The purpose of the coaching staff is obvious, to give the players more time to rest.

  At 5:40 in the evening, Oakland Arena, the Trail Blazers and the Warriors entered the stadium one after another.

  Most of the Warriors players are full of fear, but the opponent is the Trail Blazers, who have won 16 consecutive victories and are currently 32 wins and 5 losses!

   And they are only 13 wins and 26, the third worst in the West, only the Hornets and Timberwolves in the West have a worse record than them.

The word 'underdog' has been etched into the bones of this team, irrespective of the lineup, with a core of Baron Davis, Jason Richardson, Dunleavy, Murphy, Pietrus, Fisher The lineup, as well as the potential newcomers such as Biedrins, Monta Ellis, Eke Diogu, etc., the lineup is definitely not bad.

   Their problem is coach selection, not about coaching ability, but incompetence.

  The last time they assembled a luxurious lineup, they chose Adelman as the coach. This time, they gathered a bunch of talents and most of them turned into combat effectiveness. They also chose Mike Montgomery as the coach... Coaches and players are completely unsuitable.

There are more problems with the management. In order to maintain the trade value of Adonal Foyer, who is left in the big contract, the Warriors management has to let the head coach put Foyer in the starting position and give him enough playing time. The center averaged only 4 points and 5 rebounds in 24 minutes per game.

  Basketball fans in the Greater Bay Area are joking about whether Foyer has blocked a bullet for the Warriors management.

   But not everyone in the Warriors is afraid of the Trail Blazers!

   Beard is not!

   Looking at Liu Xiu, who has become a recognized superstar and won the FMVP, Baron Davis is so unwilling! He was this guy's template back then!

   What makes him even more uncomfortable now is the news of the past two days, all of which are that the Spurs have failed to complete the task of ending the Trail Blazers' winning streak.

   Beard feels ignored!

   He's going to end the Trail Blazers' winning streak!

   But how do they end the Trail Blazers' winning streak, averaging 97.2 points per game and allowing 102 points per game this season? He doesn't care! He just wants to win!

  …

   At 6 o'clock in the evening, the Blazers' away game against the Warriors started.

  After 2 hours and 21 minutes of the game, the Trail Blazers defeated the Warriors 112-96, easily winning 17 consecutive victories!

  Randolph smashed the Quartet tonight, making 14 of 25 shots and 9 of 10 free throws, scoring 37 points and 17 rebounds, including 7 offensive rebounds.

  Ray Allen scored 19 points on 7-of-15 shooting, with teammates scoring, and he returned to his regular style of play.

  Liu Xiu played 29 minutes, made 5 of 8 shots, plus 3 of 4 free throws, scored 13 points, 10 rebounds and 10 assists, clocked in three quarters and got off work! 8th triple-double of the season!

   And the menacing bearded man made 6 of 16 shots tonight, including 2 of 6 three-pointers, plus 3 of 3 free throws, and scored 17 points, 3 rebounds, 7 assists and 2 steals.

   Losing doesn't make the bearded much annoyed. Although he shouted in an interview to end the Trail Blazers' winning streak, and told his teammates that they must win during the game, but losing this kind of thing has long been accustomed to...

   He was angry that the opponent didn't take him seriously at all, and didn't target him at all.

   6 of 16 shots, which is really not how well the Blazers defended. The average shooting performance of the beard this season is like this, and the shooting rate is only 37% so far this season.

  …

   "Open up a new track:

   The host led the team to a 17-game winning streak, surpassing the 16-game winning streak held by the Lakers for the longest winning streak in the 21st century.

  Congratulations to the host for getting the reward: 20000 healing points, open endless mode.

  Endless Mode: The host needs to lead the team to continue to strive for a higher winning streak.

  Reward: Determined according to the final winning streak. "

After    defeated the Warriors, Liu Xiu received a system prompt, the final goal of this mission is here!

   In fact, no matter whether there is a mission or not, until now, his goal must be to continue to win!

   The next day, on the morning of January 16, the Blazers left Oakland and flew to Seattle.

   Before, Randolph liked to show off to others that the team had a special plane, but in the past two days, he wailed when he saw the 'Rose Bay Prison'.

   There are quite a few teammates who share the same emotions as Randolph.

   arrived at the hotel in Seattle at noon. After an afternoon rest, Liu Xiu followed the team to the Key Stadium to challenge the SuperSonics away.

   Last night's opponent was the third-last in the Western Conference, and tonight's opponent, the Sonics, was the fourth-last with 15 wins and 24 losses, but the Warriors basically ran out of sinking space, and the Sonics still had.

   After the start of this season, the SuperSonics found a lot of homes for Radmanovic, who signed a qualifying contract, in an attempt to recover some losses. .

   Entering a new era, the market for shooting strikers like Radmanovic is still good.

   But Radmanovic, who has the right to veto trades, vetoed many trade proposals. Until the beginning of this month, his next home became the Clippers. He finally agreed. After leaving Seattle, he naturally went to a bigger and more prosperous city.

The three Musketeers have only one gun left, and Lewis's data has improved a lot. So far this season, he has averaged 21.4 points per game with a 45% shooting rate and a 39% three-point shooting rate, a career high, although he has already entered the NBA. In the 8th season, but he only turned 26 last summer and just entered the golden period of his career. The SuperSonics are not good, but he has attracted much attention.

But for such a top scoring power forward, the SuperSonics have a hard time staying. Lewis has one year left on his contract, which expires in 2007. The SuperSonics management wanted to renew the contract ahead of schedule and offered 90 million for 6 years. The contract renewal offer was rejected by him.

   Coupled with rumors, local tyrant owner Howard Schultz has lost patience and wants to sell the team. The Supersonics team is panicking...

   However, after the game started at 8 p.m., the Blazers played more difficult than expected!

   In the first quarter, the SuperSonics relied on Lewis' 11 points and 3 assists and Ridnour's 7 points and 3 assists to lead the visiting Trail Blazers 32-31 and take the initiative to start!

  The Blazers' defensive performance plummeted tonight, not only because of Kwame Brown's continued absence, but the overall defensive performance was extremely poor.

   Tired! Physical and mental fatigue!

   Coupled with the impact of injuries, the Blazers defense collapsed tonight!

   Liu Xiu's comprehensive defensive performance is top-notch, but as a defender, he is not a decisive factor on the defensive end.

Fortunately, McDyess did a good job in mid-range shooting, scoring 8 points, plus Liu Xiu's 6 points and 2 assists, Momo and Rahim each scored 4 points, the Blazers only relied on offense in the first quarter. Bite the situation.

In the second quarter, the SuperSonics made persistent efforts. Chris Wilcox, who was replaced by Radmanovic, scored 9 points on 4 of 6 shots, Nick Collison scored 7 points, plus Lewis The 6 points... The team scored 29 points in a single quarter and beat the Blazers 29 to 26!

   After halftime, the SuperSonics lead the Trail Blazers by 4 points 61-57!

In the third quarter, the Trail Blazers finally cheered up and entered the state through the 'warm-up' in the half court. The defensive end improved. The SuperSonics only scored 25 points in the third quarter, while the Trail Blazers relied on Liu Xiu's 9 points. 5 points, Ray Allen, Randolph, McDyess, Raheem, Stevenson scored 4 points, and Fred Jones scored a flanking three-pointer, scoring 32 points in a single quarter.

   After three quarters, the Trail Blazers overtook the SuperSonics by 3 points 89-86 and entered the break.

  The Trail Blazers' offensive performance fell in the final quarter, but fortunately, they had pulled the Supersonics' offensive firepower down in the third quarter, and the two teams scored 27-25 in the final quarter.

In the end, relying on Liu Xiu's 32 points, 8 rebounds and 7 assists, McDyess's 15 points, 7 rebounds and 3 assists, Ray Allen's 14 points, Randolph's 13 points and 8 rebounds, Rahim and Momo's 9 Points, 7 points, 6 rebounds, 2 assists and 2 steals by the extrajudicial fanatics...The Blazers beat the SuperSonics 116-111!

  Although Liu Xiu got the highest score tonight, in his opinion, the victory tonight is the victory of the whole team working together!

   In the face of the SuperSonics who lost two muskets, the Blazers were beaten by the opponent in the first half. Obviously, in the last game of the 5 days and 4 games, their physical strength and energy have reached their limit.

  Fortunately, in the second half, the whole team, who had slowed down, worked hard for the 18-game winning streak known as the "miracle streak", and finally completed the reversal! Won a miraculous 18-game winning streak!

   Celebrated for a while with his teammates, and Liu Xiu was interviewed by Time Warner Cable Sports after the game.

Originally, there was no live broadcast against the Warriors last night and the SuperSonics tonight, but haven't the Trail Blazers been on a winning streak? .

The reporter was ready to listen to Liu Xiu pretending to be forced, but when asked about winning 18 consecutive victories, Liu Xiu kept blowing blood on his teammates, and even those who didn't play were called "waving a towel beautifully" .

  The reporter was belly slandering that the warden became official tonight. He felt that when there was nothing to interview tonight, the leader's voice came from the earphones.

   Hearing the news from the earphones, the reporter was stunned for a while, and then asked a few "really?" The voice became louder and louder, and even Liu Xiu, who was talking about his teammates, was interrupted.

   didn't let Liu Xiu wonder for long, the reporter asked hastily: "Warden, just now, Kobe Bryant created a miracle of 80 points in a single game against the Raptors..."

  …
