  Chapter 683 683. Know the shame and be brave

The biggest difficulty is not only physical fitness and basic skills, but also that he has no special matching reference objects, so he can only ponder on his own and discuss with trainers. When developing new technologies, the emergency stop jump shot is the one that he spends the most effort technology.

  It is really not easy to develop the emergency stop jumper to an excellent level!

  He is in good spirits every happy event. He was much more excited than usual during the preparation training this morning, and he practiced a few more sets of shooting.

   There is a word that good things come in pairs. At noon, the league announced the best player of the month award for March. Liu Xiu beat Nash and Duncan to win the best player of the month award for the Western Conference in March!

  In 16 games last month, the Trail Blazers achieved a record of 14 wins and 2 losses. He averaged 26.8 points, 8.5 rebounds, 11.87 assists, 3.3 steals and 0.8 blocks per game.

  After lunch, Liu Xiu went to **** for a while, and was about to take a nap at two o'clock in the afternoon, when Blake ran back in a hurry, saying that something had happened to Kwame Brown.

   Liu Xiu first called Randolph, the vice president, and the coach, and then followed Blake to the scene, asking questions as he went...then he was speechless.

  Liu Xiu followed Blake to the vicinity of the arena, saw Kwame Brown confronting a group of people, he rushed up decisively...to apologize.

  The group of people called by Liu Xiu all came, and he regretted Randolph's violent temper... But after hearing the details of the incident, Randolph also apologized, and the vice president and coach also apologized when they came.

  Liu Xiu paid for the other party's cake, lost clothes, took a group photo, and took a bunch of people to the other party's birthday party to show her face before she settled the matter.

  It turned out that on April Fool’s Day, Kwame Brown’s brain had a twitch. On the road, he saw a happy young couple carrying a big cake, ran to grab the cake, took it apart and put it on their heads.

  Liu Xiu can only be thankful that the couple did not perform traditional American culture...

  Finally, Kwame Brown was warned and fined by the team, and this matter came to an end.

  Liu Xiu was quite annoyed at first, but thinking about the former prison team, it is considered good now, it is just a prank, and there is no criminal case every three days as before... After comparison, I found that it is not so annoying.

   I didn’t expect that one day I would need to wipe such a **** for my younger brother. The warden was cured this time...

  …

  Although they were tossed a bit, it didn't affect their preparation for the game. On the contrary, the teammates had an extra joke about Kwame Brown.

   At 8 o'clock in the evening, the Trail Blazers vs. Clippers game started.

As in the last game, the two teams continued their defensive battle at the beginning. In the first quarter, the Trail Blazers beat the Clippers at home 23-18. In the second quarter, the defense of the two teams slowed down and their offensive efficiency improved.

  Back-to-back home and away double-kill the Clippers, the Trail Blazers won 9 consecutive victories, and their record improved to 63 wins and 11 losses!

  …

   This back-to-back, Liu Xiu felt that it was too difficult. The Clippers deserved to be the fifth strong team in the Western Conference after the All-Star break.

  The Trail Blazers have been in great momentum and in good shape recently, and they can be forced to this point.

  But in addition to the strength of the Clippers, it is also related to the rotation of their Trail Blazers.

   In the two games against the Clippers, all 12 players on the activation list appeared in the first game, and 11 players played in the second game.

  The common feature of the two games-only he, the warden, played more than 30 minutes. He played 39 minutes in the first game and 31 minutes in the second game.

  The playing time is between 9 minutes and 26 minutes.

  Like the second game, Randolph and Ray Allen only played 22 minutes.

  Even if the team only scored 16 points in the third quarter, the coach was unmoved. The second game of back-to-back was to reduce the playing time of the two.

   This courage is really big!
