MTL - Healing Basketball-Chapter 1055 only three opponents
Chapter 1055 Chapter 1055. There are only three opponents
"The rose will bloom again:
Pre-opening condition: The host needs to publicly announce the ambition of the regular season this season.
Goal: To win all the remaining games of the regular season and surpass the Bulls' best record of 72 wins in history.
Reward: 10,000 healing value, 1 talent fragment, and that buff. "
Already 63 wins, only 10 games left, no matter what you have to fight.
Liu Xiu went to check the situation of the Bulls' 72-win season. With 10 games left, the record was 64 wins and 8 losses. In the last 10 games, they lost two games, one to Ken Anderson's Hornets lost a game to the Pacers with Reggie Miller injured.
The Hornets that year only had a record of 41 wins and 41 losses. In the end, they were ninth in the East, and the Pacers were only the first-round team.
When losing to these two teams, the Bulls did not surpass the 69 wins of the Lakers. They definitely wanted to win. Jordan shot 23 times and 27 times respectively, but both teams broke out. The Hornets' Dell Curry With 13 points in the last quarter, the Hornets narrowly won 98-97; all 11 players of the Pacers scored. The reason why the 12th player was absent was because Reggie Miller was absent from their original 12-man activation list. The water dispenser administrator who came on the bench may affect the overall performance. Although none of the 11 players scored 20 points, 7 scored in double figures. In the end, they narrowly won by 1 point, with a score of 100 to 99.
Liu Xiu looked back at the year when he won 70 wins... a lot of pressure!
He discussed with the coaching staff, teammates, and family members the reason for such a good record this season. Strength must be fundamental, and they are strong this year!
The core lineup has cooperated for many years, needless to say, the tacit understanding, the second highest salary in the league, and strong troops.
But besides this, there is another reason—their style of play is very new!
Just like the Spurs last season, the Spurs once had the possibility of hitting 70 wins, but this season the Spurs' tactical system integrity and tactical coordination proficiency are higher than last season, but their record is not as good as last season. Left strong, no 'new' anymore.
Just like in the original time and space, the Warriors led by the Tsunami Trio must be stronger than the Warriors led by the Splash Brothers, but the latter won 73 wins, but the former could not.
Things that can be encountered but not sought after, God knows if there is a chance to meet them, and they should not be missed.
Moreover, the task was triggered, and there was a wave to rush.
The pre-condition... He really wanted to shout out that he wanted to win 73 wins, but this gave him a reason.
Seeing the coquettishness of the 23rd and 24th in the first and middle of this month, his warden was so jealous, and now he finally stole the limelight back.
…
At 8 o'clock in the evening, the Trail Blazers ushered in a challenge from the Mavericks at home.
Originally, the Mavericks' record barely ranked first in the Western Conference. Although there is a big gap with the Trail Blazers, Spurs, and Mavericks, Nowitzki has entered the real peak period. The Mavericks still have the hope of hitting 60 wins. After the coaching change, Now it's only 50 wins.
After the All-Star weekend, the Mavericks played 24 games, 10 wins and 14 losses, and the current record is 45 wins and 21 losses.
After the start of the game, the Trail Blazers could feel that the Mavericks' new tactical system had improved, and they were able to play a very beautiful tactical coordination, but the fluency and execution were still far behind.
Played the "unlimited singles style" style of play for several years. Although Kidd has come, the team has cooperated more, but the implementation is all conventional tactics, and the building of the system still depends on the coaching staff.
In the first quarter, the Trail Blazers led the Mavericks by 6 points 32 to 26. Although the Mavericks returned a 29 to 26 in the second quarter, the Trail Blazers blasted a 25 to 14 offensive and defensive climax in the third quarter, widening the point difference to 1 in one fell swoop. 14 points.
The final score was 27 to 25, and the Trail Blazers finally defeated the Mavericks 110 to 94, winning 6 consecutive victories!
Liu Xiu scored 38 points, 6 rebounds, 9 assists and 3 steals, and his shooting percentage of 13 of 23 shots continued to be efficient.
If it wasn't for the fact that the time difference has been widened after three quarters, 40+ in a single game tonight is fine.
After a day off, on the 31st, the Trail Blazers ushered in a challenge from the Suns at home.
After the game started, the Suns took the lead in launching an offense... yes, it was an offense, and no longer continue to press the rhythm.
After Alvin Gentry became the new head coach of the Suns, the Suns' offensive performance has improved qualitatively-averaging 111 points per game after the All-Star break!
In terms of record, great progress has also been made. In the first half of the season, the Suns had a record of 24 wins and 28 losses. The current record has reached 39 wins and 38 losses, returning to a 50% winning percentage.
Because the Suns are running away again!
After the All-Star weekend, Nash averaged 17 points, 3 rebounds and 12 assists per game, and the bully averaged 24.6 points per game.
But O'Neal was not so lucky. After the All-Star Weekend, his playing time dropped to an average of 22 minutes per game, and he could only score 12.6 points and 6 rebounds. The data has dropped below the average of 20+ per game.
Although O'Neal was the best performer of the Suns before the All-Star Weekend and the only player who played an All-Star performance, Gentry is very clear that this team cannot win by relying on O'Neal. Play defense, but they don't have that ability.
It is said that O'Neal has applied for a trade. This news is probably released by Steve Kerr himself, but O'Neal has performed so well this year. Although he is old, the transaction value is still quite good.
After all, next year is the year of O'Neal's contract. If you gamble $20 million, there are probably many teams who want to gamble.
O'Neal's performance this year has made people believe that if he hadn't been destroyed by a magic operator, O'Neal would have been like Jordan at the age of 40 and still averaged 20+ per game.
But although the Suns are attacking fiercely tonight, the Trail Blazers are even fiercer!
The Suns didn't defend at all. They scored 30 points in the first quarter and the Trail Blazers scored 36 points; they scored 27 points in the second quarter and the Trail Blazers scored 29 points; In the final quarter, the Trail Blazers played 35 to 22 and the Suns were in a hurry. At the critical moment, the Suns failed to play the sharp offense as in previous years.
Made 22 of 35 shots, including 6 of 11 three-pointers and 12 of 12 free throws. Liu Xiu played 42 minutes and scored 62 points, 9 rebounds, 6 assists and 3 steals, leading the Trail Blazers to a 129-109 victory over the Suns!
Liu Xiu won the second 60+ this season, and the number of 60+ in his career has increased to 11 times!

Ray Allen scored 26 points and Randolph 18 points. The three joined hands and led the team to beat the Mavericks 102 to 88, winning 8 consecutive victories!
After these 3 games of the Trail Blazers, it is confirmed that the warden is serious!
In these 3 games, Liu Xiu played as if he was playing his life. The pace of the Blazers' games was like playing in the playoffs. Basically, there was no adjustment in the tactical system. Every game must be contested!
The Trail Blazers fans were reveling, and Stern was secretly calling Oye\(^o^)/.
It's the final of the NCAA Basketball Tournament soon, but most of the limelight was taken away by the warden and the prison team!
The amount of news from the media and the enthusiasm of the fans, the Trail Blazers can compete with the NCAA Basketball Championship!
But non-Blazers fans are not so happy, especially Bulls fans, it is said that Chicago churches have been booming recently...
Now, every opponent of the Trail Blazers will suddenly become a "national idol", and there will be countless more fans.
For example, the Trail Blazers' upcoming opponent-the Spurs.
The Trail Blazers, which has 66 wins and 9 losses, have 7 games left.
On the 5th and 6th, the Spurs and Grizzlies will be played back-to-back away. The Cavaliers will be played away on the 9th. The Thunder will be played at home on the 11th. The Nuggets will be played at home on the 13th. No. Home game against the Lakers.
Those who have the conditions to snipe the Trail Blazers are the Spurs, Cavaliers, and Lakers. The other teams are too far behind just by looking at their records.
On the afternoon of the 3rd, the Trail Blazers came to San Antonio and had a night's rest. On the 4th, the entire league rested. The NCAA basketball championship finals arrived.
Although the Trail Blazers stole the limelight, the final between North Carolina and Michigan is still hot today.
However, the game was not very intense. North Carolina scored 55 points in the first half, setting a new record for the highest score in the half of the NCAA basketball championship finals.
In the end, North Carolina beat Michigan 89 to 72, but North Carolina star Lawson performed mediocre today, and the little-known Wayne Ellington won the MOP of the semi-finals.
Liu Xiu and his teammates watched the live broadcast. He felt that the scene of Lawson holding up the championship trophy with a dirty face was much more interesting than the game itself.
The commentators are complaining that this is the final with the biggest gap in strength in the history of the NCAA. Not only basketball, rugby, baseball... and other popular sports, almost never have such a big gap.
Ellington, a college student who was originally ranked outside the 60th place in the "Rookie Rookie Ranking", became famous tonight. North Carolina led by as many as 21 points in the first half, thanks to his 19 points in the half.
…
After two days of rest, the game day for the Trail Blazers to challenge the Spurs away has arrived.
At 7:40 p.m., Liu Xiu led his teammates into the court at the ATT Center.
"San Antonio Spurs, 59 wins and 17 losses, averaged 105.4 points per game, restricted opponents to score 96.2 points per game, shot 48.6% from the field, restricted opponents to shoot 43.9%..."
Liu Xiu looked at the report of the opposite team, the offense and defense are top!
Ranked 5th in the league in points per game, 9th in points conceded per game, and 2nd in the league with a net rating of 8.2 points.
The Spurs performed steadily after the All-Star Weekend. They played 24 games and achieved a record of 19 wins and 5 losses. The winning rate was 79.1%, which was higher than the 76% winning rate in the first half of the season.
The demeanor of the top team is fully displayed.

In the first three games against the Spurs this season, they won by 1 point, lost by 7 points, and won by 8 points. In the first game they won, Ginobili didn't play. In general, there is basically no difference in strength when facing each other. .
But now Liu Xiu chooses to look at the data. Thinking about it this way, the pressure is much less.
In terms of mentality adjustment, he can always find a way.
On the other side, the Spurs players are very excited now, especially the No. 21 player who did not want to be named.
This afternoon, before warming up, Shi Buddha secretly checked the news in the public restroom all afternoon.
No one dared to go to the toilet at the back, and there were a few weird laughter from time to time. The people looking for the toilet thought that some supernatural event had happened.
Today, the whole world is a fan of Stone Buddha!
Although he was also very popular in the past, and even led the All-Star votes list last season, and competed with Liu Xiu back and forth, but this is the first time he has such a high popularity today.
Now the goal of Stone Buddha - kill the warden and absorb this wave of temporary fans!
The pre-match preparation time is over, and the two teams start playing.

'Sharp Shooter' was temporarily turned on, and '20 Minute Jordan' refused to be turned on.
At 8 o'clock in the evening, the Trail Blazers' away game against the Spurs started.
Kwame Brown beat Duncan to win the jump ball, and the Blazers went first.
Liu Xiu received the ball and advanced at full speed, rushing to the fastest speed of 98, Mason failed to block the outside line, Liu Xiu went straight to the basket!
Duncan returned to close range in time, Liu Xiu squeezed into the basket under Duncan's confrontation, and took a step to gain space. When Duncan turned around, Liu Xiu had already thrown the ball under the basket...hit!
