   After the game, the Blazers easily defeated the Clippers 113-94, and Liu Xiu received a system prompt.

In the game against the Clippers, he didn't play much time. He played earlier than the last game, but played less time. The main reason is that his performance was not as amazing as the last game, with 7 points, 4 rebounds and 2 rebounds. Assists, in line with his expectations for his performance.

   Big Q's special skill, Liu Xiu didn't expect it to be a quick shot... an excellent talent, can maintain stability in quick shots, but it is useless to him.

   If you have a chance to play better, give it a shot; if you don't have a good chance, be patient and accept that you are still a mediocre player.

   But this game still left Liu Xiuyou with the same doubts as the previous game - 'Maggette and Malone have the same evaluation? The 40-year-old Malone seems to be a bit stronger...'

   After thinking about it, he found that he couldn't understand by thinking, so Liu Xiu chose to put this matter aside.

   Anyway, if you don’t understand things, you won’t waste your brain cells.

  Liu Xiu is ready to go back to the locker room, take a bath, do physiotherapy, and be interviewed... The system prompts you.

   "Healing value +39, from Chris Kaman."

  ‘? ’

  The game is over, now give a wave of healing points?

   Liu Xiu turned to look at the opposite bench, Kaman was walking towards the opposite player tunnel.

  ‘Kaman is really a spiritual guy with long hair! ’

  Kaman happened to look back at Liu Xiu, looked at each other, turned his head and left silently.

  Have played against each other in the summer league before, and said hello, Kaman was asked a question that he was crazy about - 'Did you ever think you'd go bald one day? ’

The    relationship is definitely not good, but other than this, there is nothing else.

   Now, Kaman is quite envious of Liu Xiu.

   Liu Xiu's performance was ordinary, but the coach of the Blazers on the other side was very happy. Even if he played for more than ten minutes and made more mistakes than assists, he would not be scolded, as long as he did the basic things well.

And he, as the sixth overall rookie and the American center who was selected with the highest overall pick in the 2003 class, must perform well. The Clippers refused to give Olowokandi a three-year, $15.5 million mid-level contract for him. , put Olowokandi to sign with the Timberwolves... which makes him even more pressured.

  Although Olowokandi is out of water, the 28-year-old Sugar Man averaged 12 points, 9 rebounds and 2.2 blocks per game last season. It is no problem to be a qualified starting center.

   The Clippers seem to have many stars, but the overall strength is poor, and anyone may be given up.

   Another team like this, as a high-ranked rookie, will definitely get a lot of opportunities.

  Tonight Kaman played 31 minutes and scored 12 points, 11 rebounds, 1 assist and 2 blocks, which is not bad.

   However, Kaman is very envious of Liu Xiu who will not have too much pressure.

  …

   After two home preseason games, the Blazers got a 3-day break to make adjustments.

   On October 16th, the Blazers left Portland and came to Seattle. On October 17th, at 8 p.m., they played away to the Sonics at Key Stadium.

Originally, Liu Xiu, the 13th pick in the first round, and Nick Collison, the 12th pick in the first round, played against each other. It was somewhat interesting, but Nick Collison's shoulder injury recurred during the summer league, and there was a problem with the rotator cuff. Now, I have to rest for 10 to 15 months, and I will be reimbursed directly for the rookie season.

   This is making Ray Allen depressed.

   After entering the field, in front of the Trail Blazers bench.

   "Derek, do you know the man across from you?"

   "Yes, I was in the same class as him, and he and I were teammates for the past two seasons."

   "Teammate? What do I see in your eyes and want to bite him?"

  “…”

   looked at the basic skills teacher with a round face, hehe, I'm sorry.

   "Antonio Daniels, 28 years old, 4th pick in the first round in 1997, PG/SG, 193 cm, 89 kg..."

   Liu Xiu looked at the player detection report of the point guard who was going to start tonight, thought about it, and understood.

   'The enemy of the same class, they couldn't be brothers even when they were teammates... As expected of this era. ’

  Liu Xiu looked at the career data of the two...

'It seems that the basic skills teacher should have played according to the 4th pick from the beginning of his career. It seems that the basic skills were once the strongest point guard in the 97th class. Bobby Jackson and flounder only played in the past two years... This is The basic skills teacher also cares about it. I don't know if he is so excited to beat Billups. It seems that he can't beat the current Billups now. ’

  The game is about to start, Liu Xiu put away his divergent thinking, concentrated, looking forward to the start of the game, ready to study the game and understand what he needs to do in the game tonight.

  Tonight, Damon Stoudemire's face is green, but this time it has little to do with Liu Xiu - Derek Anderson was put in the starting lineup!

  Although it is only a preseason, it can explain a few things-even if Damon Stoudemire recovers from his injury, the Blazers starting point guard will no longer be locked by him.

   This was quite a blow for Damon Stoudemire.

   And it's a huge plus for Derek Anderson and Jeff McGinnis.

   As for Liu Xiu, he doesn't look forward to starting, and he doesn't even want to start.

   Sitting on the sidelines first, observing the game, thinking about how to play, and then executing... is what he wants at this stage.

   Wretched development, waiting for an opportunity.

After    2 hours of play, the Blazers suffered their first preseason loss of the season.

  92 to 104, the Trail Blazers lost to the Sonics.

  Derrick Anderson and Antonio Daniels competed on the court, and it was worth seeing, but it was Ray Allen who took the limelight.

  Ray Allen made 15 of 26 shots, including 4 of 4 three-pointers, plus 7 of 9 free throws. He scored 41 points in 32 minutes, and everyone on the scene felt what the strongest pitcher in the world is.

  The Blazers were destroyed early, and some points were recovered later in the garbage time.

   This game, in fact, the last game against the Clippers, the Blazers coaching staff did not care about winning or losing, and it was completely different from the preseason game against the debut Lakers F4.

   At that time, it was all about fighting, everyone thought they were supporting roles and they were going to win.

   That victory, even in the preseason, gave the Blazers players a boost of confidence.

   The next preseason is not so important.

  I tried to defend, but I didn’t fight too much. I rotated when it was time to rotate, and just gave up when it was garbage time.

Liu Xiu played 15 minutes in the whole game, but did not play in garbage time. Damon Stoudemire was replaced in the final quarter. Damon Stoudemire narrowed the 24-point difference to 12 in the final quarter. Contest.

  Kevin Plitcha specifically found him when he entered the last quarter and told him that his play style was not suitable for playing and leveling in garbage time, so he was not replaced.

   This operation, Liu Xiu was a little depressed at first, after listening to the explanation, he felt that he did a good job, but he did not expect the chief assistant to take the initiative to find him to explain this matter.

   is not a low-key, literally, just tell him.

   But this is already a signal - the coaching staff is really cultivating him, and even these details are taken into account.

  …

The game between    and the SuperSonics was the start of the Trail Blazers' three-game away game. Between consecutive away games, they played every other day, and they were familiar with the feeling of consecutive away games during the season.

   On October 19th, the Blazers came to Salt Lake City to challenge the Jazz away. The Blazers narrowly defeated the Jazz 95-87, making the preseason record 3 wins and 1 loss.

  Rasheed Wallace and Kirilenko performed well tonight, Rasheed Wallace 24 points, 9 rebounds and 2 assists, Kirilenko 8 points, 11 rebounds, 6 assists and 4 blocks.

Liu Xiu played 26 minutes and scored 8 points, 6 rebounds, 3 assists and 1 steal. His steady play and reasonable distribution of the ball gave him another chance to play at the critical moment of the fourth quarter. Damon Stoudemire Er gave a wave of 99 full healing value...

   In this game, Liu Xiu played a lot of time, and not all of the positions were point guards. He occasionally played with Derek Anderson or Jeff McGinnis.

   These two, if we have to talk about hard power, are definitely not as strong as Damon Stoudemire.

   It's a disaster for Momo to lead the team with a core style of play. Derek Anderson and Jeff McGinnis would be 100% kicked out of the NBA if they led the team with a core style of play.

But these two are not the core style of play, they are both role players and guards. They need to play the point guard to hold the ball. Liu Xiu runs without the ball to respond, flanks lean on the body to block the opponent's small forwards, cut in and rely on tonnage to attack the frame, do It's pretty good.

   These are all shown by Liu Xiu in college. With the deepening of the preseason, Maurice Cheeks chose to try it when he had a chance, and it seemed that the effect was ok.

   On October 21st, the Trail Blazers came to Oakland in the Bay Area for the last game of three consecutive games to challenge the Warriors away.

The Warriors have a strong lineup. Last season, the joining of the famous coach Eric Mussoman, who has coached many clubs and countries in Europe, gave the Warriors signs of recovery... Before the official recovery, Arenas was banned. The Wizards took it away.

   But the Warriors have nothing else, just a lot of talent, just like the Tim Hardaway era ten years ago, just a lot of talent, and most of them are really talented talents.

  The game was played back and forth. Liu Xiu faced Van Exel and Avery Johnson tonight, and he had a great time - constantly sitting and playing!

Against the Clippers, the opposing point guard was Marko Yalic, a two-meter-plus guard who couldn’t play with his back; against the Supersonics, Ray Allen ran away, played in the preseason and in the playoffs, with three or two strokes. They collapsed; against the Jazz, Kirilenko's assist defense caused Liu Xiu to be interrupted once, and they dared not play more...

Finally, in the face of 77kg Van Exel and 84kg Avery Johnson, the opponent's Dampier did not play due to injury during the preseason, and the other interior defenses were not enough. Liu Xiu scored 11 points. , scored 4 goals, and 3 points were free throws.

  The Warriors have another lottery pick this year, named Michael Pietrus, but his performance was not good, mainly because he didn’t have many chances in the preseason.

  The biggest problem with the Warriors right now is that there are so many talents that they can't keep people, which has greatly affected Eric Mussoman's coaching.

Liu Xiu scored 11 points just by playing on his back. He played 27 minutes and scored 17 points, 3 rebounds, 5 assists and 1 steal. He helped the Blazers beat the Warriors 97-89 and improved their preseason record to 4 wins. 1 negative!

   Finally, after 3 games without a strong sense of presence, Liu Xiu played another game that could make opponent players have emotional swings about Lanxiu related to him, and gained a wave of healing points!
