   Chapter 34 34. Of course to win! (4000 words for collection, ask for tickets!)

  When the Blazers' dominance gradually became prominent, the game moved in an interesting direction - Jagged Hand-to-hand combat!

  Pat Riley's Jagged Storm is unpleasant, but it's a simple yet powerful play.

  Fouls, rough actions, testing the scale of malicious fouls... These are all the execution strategies of the iron-blooded foul play.

   As the game deepened, Matt Barnes found that they were becoming more and more passive, and decisively pulled Kaman to lead the team to strengthen the fight against death.

   Kaman is stronger, but he has no assertiveness. It has always been how the coach arranges and plays; on the other hand, Barnes is a player with average strength, but his leadership on the defensive end is quite good.

   At the end of the first half, the Clippers trailed the Trail Blazers 28-33 by 5 points. After the second half started, Barnes led the team to play defense and played a wave of 7-4 in more than 5 minutes!

   In this case, there is only one way - to break the deadlock with personal ability!

   To deal with opponents in the iron-blooded style, relying on personal ability is the easiest way and the most effective way.

Liu Xiu didn't hesitate. At 5 minutes and 19 seconds in the third quarter, the Trail Blazers attacked. The teammates pulled away, prepared to cut in, and kept the connection. Eat the college point guard of the Clippers!

   The point guard named Jack Jane is 190 cm tall but weighs only 84 kg.

   Liu Xiuqiang took a step, turned right and walked to the bottom line. Before Kaman's defense was in place, he wiped the board and made a shot!

  Kaman responds very quickly and starts in a timely manner.

   I just didn’t expect that Liu Xiu would be able to push Jack-Jane back to the arc of the reasonable collision zone in one step.

  39 to 35, when the point difference was about to be tied, Liu Xiu opened the point difference again with a low back play!

  Because the Clippers have a center like Kaman under the basket, Liu Xiu didn't play a low post tonight.

   Obviously, sorting out the team's offense is a better choice than him going to the low post to challenge Kaman's supplementary defense.

   There are other methods that can score points and are sure to have an advantage. It is also a good choice to save the low post for the critical moment...

   When the Clippers attacked, Kaman stood up!

  Although he wanted to become a defense-based center before the start of the summer league according to the advice of Mike Dunleavy, his agent and others after he entered the NBA, he was also a super center who swept a place in high school and college.

   Kaman's beautiful mid-range turn and hit the basket in the three-second zone!

   In front of Kaman, he has been catching and shooting, cutting shots, and focusing on defense... Giving the Blazers the illusion of an inside line - this is a defensive center.

   I just remembered now that this is the genius center who was known as the strongest insider in the 2003 draft!

   A big center with excellent skills... This kind of player may not be able to lead the team to achieve much success in the summer league, but! That sense of **** is terrifying.

   Liu Xiu whistled and asked the ball to advance.

   Seeing that Liu Xiu is not in a mess, the little bit of panic in the hearts of the teammates who have regarded Liu Xiu as the backbone has calmed down.

  Liu Xiu knew that he had to do another one at this time. He handed the ball to Travis Outlaw on the top arc in the frontcourt and continued to play in the low post!

Jack-Jane was still unable to defend, Liu Xiu easily rolled in with a back attack, and just as he was about to continue the action, Liu Xiu took aim at the opponent's player moving... Decisively quickened his speed, turned left, walked in the middle, turned around and took a fortunate step, After turning around and facing the basket, he grabbed the ball and stepped forward!

Liu Xiu took two consecutive steps towards the right side of the three-second zone from a little bit inside the left sideline of the three-second zone. Following the feeling, he took off with the third step. When his body came to the air on the right sideline of the three-second zone. , throws the ball towards the backboard...

   At this time, Kaman is in the air, but his position is on the left side of the basket, and Barnes is crowded with Jack Jane in the reasonable collision zone!

   Watching Liu Xiu almost throw the ball with his back to the basket, all three of the Clippers expected not to enter... However, their expectations fell through!

   Liu Xiu made a three-hit shot! And it's a back-mochizuki-style slick shot!

  This ball has no explosive power at all, it is just flexibility, timing judgment, bold choices, gambling feel...but it is quite ornamental!

  41 to 37, the point difference came to 4 points again!

  Finally, the female fans who came to support Liu Xiu saw a handsome goal!

  The two major NBA rookies have become the background, and the Clippers still have to attack.

   Kaman wants to return one, this time the Blazers have a defense, a very simple defense, Liu Xiu asked his teammates to go inside when Kaman received the ball!

Kaman passed the ball out, but unfortunately, Barnes who pulled away not only opened up a loneliness, but also almost didn't touch the three-pointer. The ball hit the right outer edge of the basket and bounced directly toward the floor 90 degrees. , Travis Outlaw protects the defensive rebound and pushes himself!

  Liu Xiu did not force the ball, but followed the position where he could catch the ball. He already knew Travis Outlaw's passing ability very well.

   The Clippers played iron-blooded defense and did a good job in pursuit defense. Travis Outlaw was blocked on the left side of the free throw line. At a glance, he saw Liu Xiu running to the bottom corner on the right, and immediately passed it.

  Liu Xiugang received the ball, and Barnes, who was chasing him, immediately pounced.

  Liu Xiu grabbed the ball and raised his hand. Barnes didn't jump, and he had a good sense of defense. He had a height difference of more than ten centimeters, so he didn't shake.

  Liu Xiu also tried it. He didn't flutter, and the fast break didn't come out, so he continued to fight on the ground.

   Travis Outlaw once again opened to the top arc and helped Liu Xiu serve and deal with a low back play.

   It’s true that the Clippers are playing iron-blooded tactics, but they’re just a group of college students who came together temporarily. When they play well, they’re good, but the offense from the low post… is too advanced for them!

   Liu Xiu hit a lob on the back, Travis Outlaw received the ball and then passed, and Matt Carroll on the flank received the ball and hit a three-pointer!

  44 to 37, the score difference came to 7 points!

  The game has hit this point, the Clippers are really helpless!

  Barnes didn't expect their iron-blooded play to be broken twice!

   The last time was okay, Liu Xiu used the team play style, and the trio with Travis Outlaw and Matt Carroll was really powerful.

   This time, Liu Xiu actually relied on her own strength to forcibly open up the situation!

Liu Xiu, who is not famous for playing but is famous for picking girls, most players see his news is about Anne Hathaway and about playing college students. His low post is the strongest of the current rookies, but it is true not so famous...

  Barnes still wants to struggle a bit - he goes to guard Liu Xiu and uses rough fouls to influence Liu Xiu.

   But he was called a foul by the referee as soon as he got into the rough position!

   The whistleblower is decisive and his attitude is firm.

   The referee is about to say it outright - you can play high-confrontation defense, but you are not allowed to play side **** and small moves to create conflicts.

  The summer league is very suitable for playing iron and blood defense, and the number of fouls per player is 10 times.

   Matt Barnes played with the mentality of finding a way to win and get a contract that caused conflicts, and successfully won the appreciation of Clippers coach Mike Dunleavy.

   It’s just that his idea didn’t work out, but the referee really didn’t give him a chance. Barnes was completely helpless under the current situation.

   Jagged blood is simple and easy to use, but the lower limit is really not high...

   The Clippers started to fight against the score, and the two teams set off a counterattack, but both counterattacks were defeated by Liu Xiu in various ways!

   The Blazers' final score ... set a new two-time Summer League low for the Blazers this summer - 74 points in a single game.

   Liu Xiu had 17 points and 6 assists, Travis Outlaw had 28 points, and Matt Carroll had 11 points. The three scored 56 points. No fourth player in the Blazers scored in double figures.

   But they won! The Clippers ended up with only 65 points!

  74 to 65, the Trail Blazers defeated the Clippers to advance to the top 4 of this Rocky Mountain Summer League!

   When the final whistle sounded, Liu Xiu's system prompt came.

  S rating!

   The first general review broke through A+!

  Although only just arrived at S-…

  ‘This means that in the summer league stage, I can already play a real dominant performance, right? ’

   was a little excited, but Liu Xiu quickly controlled her excitement and accepted the post-match interview on the court platform.

   "Long time no see, Jace, you did a great job tonight."

   It was Su Qun who interviewed Liu Xiu, who I have seen many times. This is the first Chinese reporter to conduct a live interview after the NBA and NCAA games.

   Yes, the first player Su Qun interviewed after the NCAA game was not Liu Xiu.

   Rather, interview with Michael Olowokandi on February 9, 1998.

  Liu Xiu was the first official interview with the imperial court this year when she was crazy three. Afterwards, Liu Xiu didn't find the news at all, which means that the interview was just a collection of materials, and there was no place to broadcast it.

   Liu Xiu replied: "Thank you, I also like tonight's game very much."

   This way of answering, Su Qun likes it.

  Weak for many years, Chinese people are always very humble and even inferior... In terms of sports competition, China is already the top three sports powers in the world, but it is not as confident as the two North Koreas next door.

   But Liu Xiu has always been confident.

   is not the kind of arrogance, nor is it arrogant, but what you do well, you will not deny that you have done well.

  Su Qun continued to ask: "Your performance has been getting better and better recently, can you tell us how you did it?"

  Liu Xiu likes to ask questions from the court reporters. After all, she is Yang's mother. Lace news will not ask questions, but it is just a question. Maybe people who watch the news don't think there is anything, but the people who are asked...

   It's like being asked 'why did you do something wrong in the exam' during the exam.

   can really say something, but it's a pain in the **** to answer this question.

   But you still have to answer! Mother Yang!

   "I think it's the support of the fans, I love hearing the screams from the fans..."

  Liu Xiu looked at the place where the largest number of female fans gathered—the opposite of the technical platform.

  The game is over. Although the venue was not full tonight, it was the NBA home arena after all, but the number of fans on the scene also exceeded 10,000, and most of them left.

   But there are still hundreds of female fans who have not left.

  Liu Xiu pointed out the gun with her left hand and blew kisses at the fans, causing bursts of screams.

  The cameraman thought what Liu Xiu was going to do, but it turned out to be like this, speechless...

  The interview ended like this. In fact, there won't be much space for Liu Xiu. It would be nice to have a ten-second interview clip in the sports news of the court sports channel.

   Liu Xiu finished the interview and saw that Travis Outlaw, who scored the highest score tonight, was being interviewed by the media in Colorado... It felt good, and quickly slipped away.

   Now that an American reporter is interviewing him, it must have nothing to do with the game.

  Nowadays, American journalists are not uncommon to report about his games, so they just want to talk a little bit more.

  The goal he wanted has been achieved, and naturally he will not 'work' for those reporters in vain.

  …

  On the 2nd day, the 4 top 8 games of the Rocky Mountain Summer League finals were all played.

Before the Blazers, the Spurs beat the Suns to advance, and the Knicks beat the Mavericks to advance.

   At 7 p.m., still at the Delta Air Lines Arena in Salt Lake City, the Bulls, who are recognized as the strongest team in this summer league, started their game with the host Jazz.

  The Jazz only ranked seventh in the preliminaries. However, facing the Bulls who won all 4 games in the preliminaries, the Jazz won an upset!

The Jazz selected point guard Mo Williams with the 18th overall pick in the second round. He played 35 minutes, made 15 of 21 shots, including 5 of 7 three-pointers, and led the Jazz with 35 points and 8 assists without free throws. The team beat the Bulls 92-88 in a shocking and thrilling way and advanced to the top four.

   On the Blazers side, after 5 games in this summer league, basically any type of team has played.

Luke Walton played a steady and steady way to organize the offense as the core of the Lakers, the Suns led by Barbosa, the assault-type perimeter core, the 76ers and Pacers who were not very strong, and the Jagged Defense. Clippers…

Now, after Liu Xiu's first dominance in the summer league...not so easily noticed by others, he is confident that most opponents will not be able to cause them real trouble unless they are in poor form, or The opponent is super god.

   He is now looking forward to the final against the Bulls.

   But I didn't expect that they didn't encounter the situation of poor state or superhuman opponents, but the Bulls did!

   On August 4th, the Trail Blazers ushered in the quarter-finals against the Spurs.

   The Spurs have only one first-round pick this year and have no other draft picks, but they signed 4 undrafted picks, all from South America...and they played well! One of them, a combo guard named Alex Garcia, got a 2-year, partially guaranteed contract of $990,000.

   But it's a good game. Liu Xiu, Travis Outlaw, and Matt Carroll have already played a dominant performance, and they are very confident and keep moving forward!

   At this point, Liu Xiu and others came on stage to win, to win the championship!

After 1 hour and 33 minutes of the game, with Liu Xiu's 11 points, 6 rebounds and 4 assists, Travis Outlaw's 17 points and Matt Carroll's 24 points, the Blazers defeated the Spurs 93-82. , advance to the finals!

   Ask for a monthly pass, ask for a recommended ticket!
