Healing Basketball

  Chapter 679 679. Explosive Spurs!

  Parker's pick-and-roll basic skills still need to be improved, the 'forward swing' is too big, Liu Xiu instantly judged that Parker is a fake pick-and-roll.

  Bowen's defense did not actually fail. The goal of the defense was achieved, allowing Liu Xiu to make a two-point or three-point shot at high speed.

   It’s just that Liu Xiu judged the opponent’s possible intentions. When he saw Bowen retreating from beyond the three-point line, Liu Xiu decided to make an emergency stop, slow down in advance, and rely on the top mid-range shot to score a long two-pointer.

  After scoring a goal, Liu Xiu's excitement erupted again, and he hurriedly tried to adjust when retreating.

  He originally thought that the improvement of "insight" was just a bonus, and the main function of "prison killing" was to maintain the lower limit of the state.

   After all, the lower limit of maintaining the state looks too good. Literally understood, it means that even in hand-to-hand combat and attrition wars, the lower limit of the state can be maintained at a good level.

But this doesn’t work all the time. For example, at the beginning of the game, he has patiently carried out a complex and sufficient warm-up, and his condition is likely to be better than “good”. Later, he will be affected by factors such as confrontation and physical exertion. Down, but it is also possible to play more and more high, then the 'lower limit is good' is useless... There are certain limitations.

The improvement of "insight" is different. His reading ability at both ends of the offense and defense is already at the top level, and his awareness is very good. With a "substantial improvement", he suddenly feels that he has Nash's defensive reading ability and Bowen's. Offensive reading skills.

However, Liu Xiu's emotional adjustment failed this time. He was still very excited when he retreated to the backcourt. Seeing that Parker had advanced past halftime, he simply chose to give up restraint and focus on the game instead of being distracted to suppress the excitement. distracted.

   Parker, who had just advanced one step outside the top arc, was taken aback!

  He focused on Liu Xiu all the time, and saw Liu Xiu staring at him with wide eyes suddenly, eyes filled with excitement and excitement.

   Just as Parker was swallowing, Liu Xiu moved, stretched out his hand, and stole it head-on!

   Parker lost his mind for a moment, and was intercepted by Liu Xiu!

  Liu Xiu grabbed the ball and started a fast break, Parker hurried to catch up.

   Others followed up and chased after, but Liu Xiu and Parker were far ahead. Both of them were faster than the top level.

  Parker was a little faster and came to the basket first. When Liu Xiu grabbed the ball and took off, he pressed up and reached out to get the ball.

  Parker is very confident, Liu Xiu will never dunk against him, he is not worthy.

   But as soon as he posted it, Liu Xiu directly rejected it.

  Liu Xiu took off from close range with all her strength, overturned Parker, leaped high, and smashed the ball into the basket heavily!

  Parker was not lightly hit or fell, but watching his tragic state, the fans at the scene were even more excited.

   It's so rare to see a warden who is not calm!

   The ball was suspected of blocking the foul, but the referee didn't blow it, and Liu Xiu didn't fight, and turned around to retreat.

   People who look down on don't buckle? No, no, he just doesn't dunk if it's not necessary, so as not to affect the feel.

   Only buckle top defensive champions? Of course not, but when facing those people, scoring in that position, the safest thing is to dunk.

  Now the state is at a good level, so don't worry about these, just do it!

  Parker was in a lot of pain just now, but it was just a blunt injury, and it didn't hurt after a while.

  But after he received the serve and advanced to the frontcourt, he saw Liu Xiu again, and he had the feeling he had facing Liu Xiu last season.

  After the first three matches this season, although he lost all of them, he thought that even if he couldn't beat Liu Xiu, he could already rely on the team to compete against Liu Xiu.

  The gap he felt in the first two offenses was even bigger than last season's gap!

  Parker will not do anything right or wrong in the next few rounds.

  Although Liu Xiu's defensive insight has improved, his basic defensive skills have not changed. The defense in the first two rounds was actually a surprise, but it has already bluffed Parker.

   And his insight has improved. Although the basic defensive skills have not changed, he has a better vision to make good use of his basic defensive skills. It will not change, but it will be able to perform better.

  However, the limitation of defensive insight, in fact, the most important thing is that he is a point guard, not the most critical part of defense.

   The defense is more critical to the inside and striker.

  The offensive end is different. As the core of the ball, the improvement of offensive insight is much more important than offense!

As long as Liu Xiu started to accelerate from the middle circle, Bowen insisted on the strategy of preventing breakthroughs and not preventing shots, but Liu Xiu followed up with a wave of 2 of 3 shots and scored 4 points, making the score 8 to 3, and the lead was extended to 5 points.

   Next, Duncan hit Kwame Brown with a low back and turned around and hit a hook to stabilize the situation.

  The Trail Blazers attacked again. Liu Xiu continued to accelerate the breakthrough in the middle circle. Bowen couldn't hold back this time, pressed up to defend, and was passed by Liu Xiu.

  Duncan had to make up early, Liu Xiu made a quick pass, Randolph received the ball from a low post, turned around to Nesterovic's side and made a layup.

When Liu Xiu scored 8 points on 4 of 5 shots in the opening game, Popovich did not call a timeout. As soon as Randolph scored the ball, Popovich called a timeout. When Bowen walked back to the bench, Ushered in the head-covering roar.

  Parker just felt glad that he wasn't the one being yelled at, and Popovich attacked him with his mouth.

  Not only was he yelled at, but he was also scolded bloody.

  Although Popovich called a timeout, the game had only been played for a while, and there was no way to solve the problem at all. Just yelling at Bowen and Parker took most of the timeout time, and the overall morale was low.

   On the other side, the Trail Blazers are in full swing!

  After returning from the timeout, neither team made any substitutions, and the starting lineup continued to play.

  The coach has no solution to the problem, which is nothing new for the Spurs players. Whenever this happens, the adjustment of the Spurs players is to implement the established strategy more firmly.

  In the rest of the first quarter, the Spurs defended the Trail Blazers' three-pointers and close-range shots very well, but the Spurs completely missed Liu Xiu's high-post shots.

After making 4 of 5 shots in the opening game, Liu Xiu shot 3 of 5 mid-range shots, and had a counterattack against Ginobili's 2+1 layup... After the first quarter, Liu Xiu made 8 of 11 shots , plus 1 of 1 free throws, scored 17 points and 3 assists in a single quarter!

  Under his leadership, the Trail Blazers scored 29 points in a single quarter!

On the other hand, after the Spurs scored 5 points at the start, due to various influences, the singles performance was not good, and the shooting performance of the receivers was not good. Parker was 1 for 4, Ginobili was 1 for 4, and Bowen was 0 for 3. , only Duncan shot 2 of 4 to 50%... The team only scored 12 points in a single quarter.

  29 to 12, the Trail Blazers led by 17 points to end the first quarter!
