   Chapter 925 925. Hill's Anxiety (Happy New Year)

  After playing the Heat, the Trail Blazers got two days off.

   On the first rest day, the coaching staff did not arrange training, just a day off.

   But in the afternoon, Liu Xiu was called to the Willamedy Garden Training Center to have a meeting with the coaching staff to discuss system adjustments.

   Those who were called together were Blake, Hill and other players who organized the team's offense.

  Ray Allen didn't come, he has now entered the 'puzzle' mentality, just execute the tactical arrangement.

Unlike the Warriors, Nuggets, and Suns who adjusted towards pure offense, their adjustment of the Trail Blazers is to ensure the adjustment of basic defense, which is similar to Kobe and the three highs in Liu Xiu's impression. The crown's offensive and defensive system.

  The difficulty is very high, but they are making adjustments with confidence and energy.

  The source of confidence is naturally three consecutive championships.

   For Liu Xiu personally, he doesn't know what the result of this adjustment will be, but he is equally confident.

  The afternoon meeting was quite productive. After the meeting, Liu Xiu chatted with Hill.

Talking about the problem of not arranging training this afternoon, Hill said: "It is right to arrange training this afternoon. Our upcoming schedule is getting more and more intense, and we need more adequate preparations, and we are in the adjustment stage of play. Definitely needs more training."

"I think so too," Liu Xiu agreed with Hill's statement, and then said: "But this is a habit we have developed in the past two seasons. As the season progresses, our physical problems will be very tight. More and more."

   "I understand," Hill echoed, expressing his opinion: "But I don't think we have any obvious physical problems now."

"Yes, I also think that our physical condition is very good this year. We have changed a lot of players. Grant, with you and Keller joining, Paul, Antonio, and Louis have got more opportunities. The outlaws are on the bench. Going to play against the opponent's second and third team, the physical exertion will be less, most of us are in good physical condition, only Butcher and Kwame have potential physical problems... But,

  Grant, you don’t need to worry. The teammates are used to such slow-paced adjustments. This is a habit that has been developed for a long time.

   Our journey is just beginning, enjoy the new career, I think you can play for at least 5 years, we will have everything. "

  Liu Xiu also expressed his opinion.

   "You are right, I agree with your point of view."

  Hill echoed, obviously feeling a little more relaxed.

  …

   On the second day, the Trail Blazers adjusted normally.

  Hill temporarily put down his anxiety and observed the situation of his teammates.

More than a month ago, he felt that his teammates had no sense of urgency and was a little anxious. Now he does not look at his teammates with "colored eyes". The old players of the team are actively working hard for the adjustment of the system when they are in the training stage.

   On December 9th, the Trail Blazers' 20th game day of the season arrived.

   At 8 o'clock in the evening, the home game against the Bucks started.

  At the end of the quarter, the Bucks, seeing the opportunity to win, played even more desperately. Reed led the team to play a fierce offense, and played back and forth with the Trail Blazers.

However, after returning from the official timeout at the end of the quarter, Liu Xiu, Ray Allen, and Korver played together and played a wave of 15 to 5. The Trail Blazers went from being overtaken by 1 point to regaining a 9-point lead. .

  Finally, the Bucks launched a wave of counterattacks, but failed.

   The final score was 35 to 33, and the Trail Blazers narrowly beat the Bucks 122 to 116!

  The burst speed is not good, but the straight-line sprint speed is slightly faster than Liu Xiu, which left a deep impression on the latter.

  After playing the Bucks, the Trail Blazers left Portland and came to Salt Lake City.

   Next, it’s back-to-back away and home games alternately, and the opponents... are all the Jazz!

   Arrived at the hotel in Salt Lake City. As always, no one from the Trail Blazers went out to fool around.

  Liu Xiuwo stayed in the room and had a video chat with his family. This year, the online video communication has made another milestone. Chatting with multiple people on the same screen has become simple and convenient.

  He started a multi-person video chat with his parents at home with the baby, Anne Hathaway in the computer room at school, his aunt at the company...and others.

   This is not a new technology. There was such a technology in the 1970s, but at that time only a few organizations could communicate like that.

Now, computer hardware is developing rapidly, network speed is getting faster and faster, and software is getting more and more advanced... One notebook per person can carry out the unstable and mosaic multi-person work that needs to be contacted in advance and the power of the signal line can be completed in the past. video communication.

  A few years ago, Liu Xiu didn’t look forward to the arrival of smartphones so much. At that time, he enjoyed a “clean” world very much, without the 24-hour bombardment of spam.

  But human beings are always subject to change. Feeling the take-off of desktop computer functions, he began to look forward to a more convenient life again.

   After chatting with his family, he went to surf the Internet. This prosperous world, as he wished...

  When it comes to him, they are touting his 10 triple-doubles in 20 games, 3 consecutive triple-doubles, 5 triple-doubles in the past 6 games...
