Healing Basketball

   Chapter 186 186. The back gradually becomes heavier

   Liu Xiu and Nowitzki came to teach Chinese for a while, but all of a sudden they couldn't really teach.

  Liu Xiu thought about it and used pen and paper to figure out the sound of each word in English. It's almost enough.

  It is worth mentioning that he did not write Chinese characters...

   When the two were teaching Chinese, the Blazers players were watching from a distance.

   It's been two years without an opponent coming to the Blazers' training ground, right?

   is still that German guy?

Momonga felt incredible, and said to Al Harrington: "We used to beat ourselves up, someone who stole things also stole our own locker room, and alcoholism also means that we drink ourselves into pigs... Others are so afraid of us. .

   The warden is playing someone from another team, so a good guy like a German is not afraid of him? "

  Al Harrington sweats down...

   Was this team so outrageous before the warden came?

   Fortunately, it was late!

  …

  At 7:40 p.m., at the stadium of the American Airlines Center in Dallas, the Blazers and Mavericks entered the stadium successively.

After the players entered the field, Jamison took the initiative to chat with Liu Xiu.

  The topic of conversation is that if there is time in the off-season, ask Carter and the three family members to go fishing or something.

   Jamison and Carter have multiple relationships, college teammates, friends, brother-in-law...

   Liu Xiu feels that there has been a big change after the All-Star Weekend, and more opponents take the initiative to contact him.

   Black people have smart people too.

  Antoine Jamison, in Liu Xiu's opinion, is a smart person.

   It’s not that he came to chat with him this time. He thinks Jamison is smart, but the choice of Jamison and Anthony Walker this season.

   In the same situation, Jamison made a completely different choice from Anthony Walker.

   Play well as a substitute, show the excellent qualities that you are willing to sacrifice for the team, and show your teamwork.

   There must be losses, and Jamison minimizes his losses.

   And Anthony Walker has a bad reputation.

   Two games after the All-Star weekend, the Mavericks performed a new look, and people can't blame Anthony Walker for their poor play ahead.

   Liu Xiu remembers that when Jamison was almost 34 years old when he went to partner with James, he still had an annual salary of more than ten million dollars. Anthony Walker, who was a little younger than Jamison, had long since left the NBA.

  …

  The game is about to start, and the referee informs the starters of both teams to play.

  The Blazers' starting lineup has been adjusted. Tonight's starting center is Dale Davis, and the other four remain unchanged.

  Liu Xiu was on the technical desk, smeared some magnesium powder, thinking who would be better to copy tonight?

  Nowitzki copied it, but it didn’t work well. The second time he played against the Mavericks, he copied Anthony Walker, which was not bad, but this guy was traded away.

  This time is different from the past. In the first two games against the Mavericks, their Blazers had an obvious strength advantage. At that time, the Mavericks were in a mixed state.

   This time, the opposite starts - Nash, Finley, Josh Howard, Nowitzki, Ratliff.

   The starting lineup has everything, and there is no who occupies who's running or scoring area, and there are players like Jamison who can average 25 points per game on the bench.

   But Liu Xiu looked around and really didn't know who to copy...

  ‘Just point guard! ’

  Because there are too many differences in various aspects, Liu Xiu never thought of copying Nash. If he encounters Kidd, he will not hesitate at all and go to Kidd.

   "The Great Mage:

  …

   Opponent: Steve Nash, 30 years old, 191 cm, 85 kg, PG, ability rating 86...Averaged 14 points, 3 rebounds and 8 assists...matched 35%...

  Characteristics Transformation Talent: Technical flow (outside), bonus effect: 1. The ball feel is slightly improved, 2. It is easier to find the rhythm when the host uses the outside player technology. "

   Liu Xiu clapped his hands, this match, this characteristic transforms talent, better than nothing.

   Maybe copying Nash next year will be different? Son of the wind!

   However, if the Mavericks really go straight to the championship this year, it is hard to say whether Nash will leave.

   In both cases, Liu Xiu is looking forward to it.

  At 8pm, the referee blew the whistle to start the game and threw the ball into the air.

  Ratliff easily defeated Dale Davis to win the jump ball, Nash received the ball and pushed forward, and the Mavericks took the lead.

  Nash was close to the three-point line, Liu Xiu pressed up, and defended meleely.

   Direct pressure, Nash's movements were all squeezed out, but the ball was well protected, he opened up a little space, took a step horizontally, and shot the ball quickly... Liu Xiu was shaken away!

  Nash's super sense of ball and rhythm, coupled with a near-perfect technical breakthrough, passed Liu Xiu!

   Liu Xiu turned around and chased after him. After the start, Nash could no longer catch up, but he still tried his best to catch up.

   With such enthusiasm, his teammates followed suit and defended very aggressively... Although it was useless.

   Nash grabbed the ball with a step from the free throw line and jumped with a jumping action, and hit the ball with the trend... A big throw!

  2-0, the Mavericks took the lead.

  Liu Xiu licked the corner of his mouth, then returned the serve and advanced.

   is still the Nash with fluttering long hair, he hasn't changed...but the difference from the previous two fights is too big!

   That kind of smart, free and easy, freehand…

   It's just a son of a version?

   But not shocking.

   He never really felt that Nash was only as strong as 'No-handcheak'.

   It's not that Nash is the only one who enjoys that rule. Why don't you see someone else get an MVP.

   And over the past three seasons, Nash has had two triple-teams and two All-Star benches.

  Nash's top scoring ability just now showed, Liu Xiu felt normal.

   Came to the front court, Liu Xiu didn't feel the effect of 'slightly improved ball sense', but when he leaned over to make a breakthrough, it felt good!

  Technical flow for easier to find rhythm effect triggers!

   Nash, who was guarding one step inside the three-point line, saw Liu Xiu's squinting eyes suddenly widen and looked at him, as if he had bad intentions...

   Liu Xiu is still a little confident in his technical progress in the past half-season... Nash should always feel invincible, right?

   Liu Xiu chose to be strong!

  Nash's defensive prediction is accurate, his footsteps are quick, his attitude is positive, and he is fearless... He was tricked by Liu Xiu and jumped out.

   Liu Xiu was careful after changing direction. It would be embarrassing to be blocked by Nash, but they all rushed to the low area on the left sideline of the three-second zone, and no one blocked them back... Oh, here we come!

  The inside line is here!

   Liu Xiu really didn't expect Nash's defense to be so bad, and a change of direction came directly to the inside!

  Ratliff made it up, and Liu Xiu subconsciously grabbed the ball and jumped horizontally.

  Ratliff is worthy of being the league's top defense expert, he quickly turned around and took off and blocked shots...

  Ratliff thought that Liu Xiu had already taken two steps after turning around to shoot, but Liu Xiu just took the second step!

   Furthermore, it is Eurostep!

   Liu Xiugang stepped to the top of the arc in the reasonable collision zone, and his right foot bounced back to the left sideline of the three-second zone.

  Ratliff did not give up, after landing, he quickly turned around and rushed towards Liu Xiu again.

   Over the top!

  Liu Xiu made the third step after Ratliff saved the three seconds zone and made a layup!

   is too slow. It is the sense of the top defense boss with sharp reflex arc, top athletic ability and excellent dynamic vision in Ratliff.

   Others saw that Liu Xiu was just a slower, slow-paced European step, while Ratliff was just like a jumper who just entered the NBA, and was tricked by Liu Xiu's footsteps.

  The Mavericks players were very surprised by this ball—Liu Xiu didn’t know this in the first two games.

   Although the Blazers players knew that Liu Xiu imitated Wade's tricks in the game a few days ago, at that time, Liu Xiu's footsteps were not so much a European step as a few jumps.

   But this time, it is a real-European step with obvious rhythm online, clear lines, and technical movements!

  The old players are okay, the new three...

  Liu Xiu patted his chest and retreated - copying Nash is still useful!

   Thanks to the talent of 'technical flow', I can directly find a sense of rhythm, otherwise the ball just now was blocked by Ratliff.

   Mistakes and quilts are all very possible.

   to the Mavericks offense.

   Nash, who was changed by Liu Xiu just now, will be burning with anger to take revenge?

   Of course not possible.

  Nash has long been used to it, and the Mavericks have long been used to it. Even Ratliff, who had just joined the Mavericks for less than half a month and only played two games, quickly got used to it, so he was able to make up for it as soon as possible.

  Nash made his choice calmly, and a beautiful singles shot sent the ball to Josh Howard.

  Josh Howard made a cut from the bottom line to catch the ball!

  Frame protector...

Liu Xiu read the report of the Pacers. Tianzun joined the Pacers and played two games. The first game played for 15 minutes. After trying the feeling, he scored 10 points and 4 rebounds. In the second game, he played 31 minutes. To 8 points, 8 rebounds, 2 steals and 5 blocks, the Pacers beat the Raptors 74-62.

   Offensive and defensive transition, the Blazers attacked, and Liu Xiu advanced to the frontcourt.

   Under the basket, Nowitzki squatted under the basket, and Ratliff helped defend. The rim protection combination formed by the two was quite good.

   If it’s hard to fight on defense, then play offense!

   Liu Xiu looked for Randolph, Randolph waved his hand and squatted close.

  Liu Xiu thought of the scouting report, glanced at Ratliff's player detection report, and immediately became concerned.

   Continue to hit the basket and start walking!

   The footsteps that didn't come out subconsciously in the last round played well, and Ratliff successfully blocked it.

  Liu Xiu scored the ball, Ruben Patterson came to the left side of the free throw line tacitly, but unfortunately only ran out of space to catch the ball, and was followed by Finley when he shot.

   Kobe's Terminator misses a catch-and-shoot jumper!

   Liu Xiu and Randolph rushed to grab!

  Nowitzki blocked Randolph and Dale Davis, defensive rebounds, and he was able to play an 8.9-1 offensive rebound ratio.

   But Ratliff got it…

  Liu Xiu bypassed Ratliff and grabbed the rebound first, and made a second attack for a layup...Hit!

  4 to 4 level!

  Ratliff's flaw, Liu Xiu and Randolph took advantage of it!

  Ratliff is good at everything on the defensive end, with first-class solo defense, top-level help defense, positive style of play, and top-level blue-collar... But he doesn't do a good job in defensive rebounding.

   His position awareness is average, his weight is not enough... On the contrary, his offensive rebounding is exceptionally good...

   When the Mavericks attacked, Dirk Nowitzki singled Dale Davis and missed a long two-point shot... Ratliff grabbed an offensive rebound and made a tip-up, and the Mavericks led 6-4.

  Ratliff is a wonderful guy who can average 3 offensive rebounds and 4.3 defensive rebounds per game!

   Before receiving the serve, Liu Xiu greeted several teammates to discuss it around.

  The Trail Blazers attacked, Randolph kept the baseline and saved his energy. Dale Davis was on the left side of the three-second zone, ready to pick and roll or cut for his teammates without the ball.

  Liu Xiu continued to break through in singles, Nash did not block, but retreated again and again. Liu Xiu had a chance to take a shot from the free throw line, but he did not stop, but chased after Nash.

  Ratliff, who was about to give Liu Xiu a cap, had to chase to the basket.

  Liu Xiu passed the ball to Dale Davis, Dale Davis re-pointed the ball, and the extrajudicial madman caught the ball from the left baseline...

   Facing Josh Howard's defensive mid-range shot!

  Maurice Cheeks sighed silently on the sidelines, this ball really depends on the extrajudicial madman's sky-defying bounce + luck.

   It's not that Liu Xiu's ability to organize and attack is not good. It's hard to find Liu Xiu's good combing and attacking master in tactics, but Dale Davis, who is a high setter, needs to see his teammates move before passing the ball.

   But you can't blame Dale Davis, he didn't eat this bowl of rice in the first place.

  Compared to the extrajudicial fanatic's excellent feel, Nuotian...Big-King's starting feel is a bit cold.

  Nash scored a single from the outside, Nowitzki slipped out of the bottom line to face Randolph and missed a close-range shot!

   Saw someone rushing inside when Dirk Nowitzki shot, Dale Davis stopped grabbing the board and stuck Ratliff with all his might.

  Randolph turned around and stuck Dirk Nowitzki, the extrajudicial fanatics also actively stopped between Josh Howard and the basket, and Liu Xiu took the defensive rebound!

  Defense is not good, but do what you can do!

   With guards like Liu Xiu and others, unless the ball bounces far away or is about to fall on the opponent's head, the defensive rebound can be said to be very stable.

   But such a guard strategy means that the Trail Blazers should not try to fight back.

   Liu Xiu was on the court, and he grabbed a defensive rebound, but he did not threaten to counterattack, which was a big loss to the Blazers' offense.

   But there is no way, there must be gains and losses.

  The Blazers are gone on the fast break, but the Mavericks can still play anything.

  Nash's passing control, Nowitzki's singles and catch-up shots, Josh Howard's empty cut + singles, Finley's catch-and-shoot + singles... In theory, in such a situation, the Mavericks have a clear upper hand.

   But this is not the case.

  Nowitzki is 0 of 3 in the half quarter!

   When Dirk Nowitzki's cold hand was not exposed, the Mavericks really took the initiative.

   But after Nowitzki missed two consecutive shots, the Blazers really chose to let him go and actively attack others.

   The Mavericks, who got 6 points at the beginning, only got 5 points in the next 4 minutes!

   After the first half, they all led the Mavericks by 4 points 15-11!

   Entering the official timeout, Liu Xiu saw that he had 4 rebounds, 2 offensive rebounds and 2 defensive rebounds in half a quarter. He felt that the stadium tonight was extraordinarily dim, and there was the sound of running water...

   The system prompt is here!

   "Mission: Put on the tortoise shell to trigger..."
