MTL - Healing Basketball-Chapter 66 66. Eat enough to have the strength to work

   Chapter 66

   The referee just thought that Liu Xiu was really sensible. He felt that Liu Xiu was included in the 'Rookie Thorn List' listed by the referee committee, which was prejudice against the Chinese...

   This Nima is really thorny!

   Revenge is revenge!

   Another almost clash, but fortunately, Randolph and Ben Wallace greeted each other and restrained themselves.

   It was mainly Travis Outlaw who listened to his orders and stopped Rasheed Wallace, who wanted to shout a few words, to avoid deadweight loss.

   The one who regrets this time is Liu Xiu.

   When he attacked just now, he was the one being plotted.

   Now, he is the one who strategized, and it didn't work.

  Billups walked to the free throw line, the fans on the scene got up and started booing!

   The score was 42 to 44, and the game reached the middle of the third quarter. If it weren't for the impact of Momoko, the fans would have fallen asleep.

   Watching Momonga was replaced, the fans were ready to get drowsy again... As a result, they woke up stimulated by two fouls!

  Liu Xiu stopped his teammates from clashing with each other after being rudely fouled. Fans who didn't like this rookie who was exchanged for a first-class star like Bunch Wells felt that the rookie was a bit responsible.

   The foul that he couldn't prevent and chose to use his own way to return his own body made the Blazers fans feel that this guy is really not a good person!

   But I have to say that Liu Xiu's defense this time is very relieved!

   Although the Trail Blazers have a bad reputation, they really can't find many evil acts on the court!

  I have to look for it. Rasheed Wallace yelled at the referee and was sent out, which is already one of the worst.

  There is a small group of fans who feel that their Trail Blazers are pitiful, like Rasheed Wallace, who are often provoked, yelled, and sent out in a train…

   Liu Xiu gave fans a sense of 'I am really a bad guy, I will really take revenge'.

   Of course, there are a lot of fans who don't like this, and their Blazers' reputation is already bad...

  In any country, there is a group of people who have the simplicity of 'put down your arms, others will not be afraid of us, and will not target us'.

   But at the moment, if there is revenge, it will be revenge, which still makes the fans on the scene feel that they share the same hatred.

   In these two rounds, the tone of the game changed again!

The overall tone in front of    is high confrontation and pressing rhythm, and the Pistons quickly loosened the referee's whistleblower scale.

   The Blazers couldn't stop it, they had to keep up, because the referee really relaxed the whistleblower scale. If they didn't keep up, they could only suffer.

  The referee just whistled the penalty according to the usual practice. Each team has its own characteristics. The Trail Blazers have a good defense, the Pistons have a top defense, and the defensive teams are playing against each other. It is normal.

   The Pistons fought frantically in the second half of the first quarter, and the referee also chose 'indulgent'.

   Now, the tone is not only about loose penalties, high confrontation, but also rough fouls! Even a rough active foul!

   It is impossible for the referee to tighten the whistle at this time. If he really wants to blow it, everyone will foul in defense!

   Next, Liu Xiu showed his toughness!

   He is not strong, and the opponent knows it, so the defense he encounters is always relatively simple.

   It's hard to say, but the chance is with him, he played very resolutely!

  Anyway, the little Momonga on the sidelines saw this picture and thought that if he was the one who was overturned time and time again... he felt that the matter of 'making a wedding dress for a rookie' was not unacceptable.

   His little Momonga couldn't bear such devastation.

   By the end of the third quarter, the field had turned into a gladiatorial arena!

  The game reached 11 minutes and 42 seconds of the third quarter, and the Blazers attacked.

  Currently, the Blazers lineup is Liu Xiu, Derek Anderson, Travis Outlaw, Randolph, Rasheed Wallace.

The Pistons lineup is Billups, Hamilton, Collis Williams, Ben Wallace, Okur.

   Liu Xiu held the ball and advanced to the frontcourt. Just now, he was fishing on the defensive end, and he was slow to advance. Now he feels that it should be no problem to make a breakthrough.

  Yes, he felt the effect of physical strength in the first two rounds, but that's okay...

   With 6 seconds left, Liu Xiu continued to force!

   can still come! Billups was run over again, and the whole person was not well.

   Liu Xiu's speed in rushing in was obviously slower, and even Oku was able to make up for the defense in time, but Billups, who was closely behind Liu Xiu, didn't dare to be careless. Sure enough, when Liu Xiu jumped, he had more energy!

   Facing Oku's supplementary defense, Liu Xiu took off and confronted Oku with a small throw... hit the rebound and bounced into the frame!

   Hit!

  Liu Xiu's score in this section increased to 9 points! 3 of 7 shots, plus 3 of 4 free throws, scored 9 points in more than 8 minutes! The best of all time!

   With 3 seconds left, Hamilton turned around to get a three-pointer at halftime. After three quarters, the Trail Blazers chased the score to 55-56, only 1 point behind the Pistons and entered the break!

   The fans on the scene are watching!

  The various shows of Momonga in the first 3 minutes, and Liu Xiu's toughness in the next 8 minutes.

   Before the two were linked together, it was a 'villain rookie playing a flying squirrel' in the training game. Now, the two are one after the other and join forces to defend against the enemy... Blazers fans feel a bit surreal.

   But it doesn't matter!

The situation is still clear. After the first half, their Trail Blazers were obviously at a disadvantage, and the Pistons took the initiative. It seemed that their Trail Blazers were going to be crushed a thousand miles away... But in the first half of the game, Momoko and Liu Xiu Hold the situation up!

   Little Momonga scored 7 points in more than 3 minutes, Liu Xiu scored 9 points and 1 assist in more than 8 minutes, and the two led the team to score a total of 23 points in a single quarter, beating the Pistons 23-19!

  …

   "This kid is amazing, isn't it Morris."

   "That's right, he saw the advantage and saw the opportunity, so he didn't hesitate."

   "Yes, yes! And his determination. Although he is not strong enough, he is willing to take responsibility! And he has extraordinary courage. Not everyone dares to rush to the basket like him.

   And his persistence, you almost replaced him just now, right? But he persevered and scored four points on the last three possessions..."

   Entering the inter-season break, Maurice Cheeks was going to discuss with Kevin Plitcha how to rotate, but he heard Kevin Plitcha's crazy praise for Liu Xiu.

   There's nothing wrong with it, but Kevin Pritt looks at the difference between Liu Xiu's front and back, like a patient.

   However, Liu Xiu's performance in this half-quarter of the game really makes people feel good.

   The most important thing is that this kid actually held on!

Maurice Cheeks thinks back now, let Momoko, Jeff McGinnis, and Derek Anderson take control. The Pistons' defensive strategy, singles opportunities should still appear here at the point guard, but These three people, under the defensive strategy of the other party, will either get angry and fight, or they will be bullied to death.

   The vast majority of players are unwilling to fight, and the suspension will cost the salary. Who will have a hard time with money?

The    Pistons' defensive strategy is to capture this mentality of the opponent.

  Larry Brown's strategy is so bad!

   But Liu Xiu's body can hold it up! And Liu Xiu will take revenge, the kind that doesn't suffer at all in terms of violence.

   That old man tried his best to do a futile effort, Maurice Cheeks was a little happy thinking about it... Eh... This old man is scolding the second-place show again? How miserable.

  Larry Brown's bad character, everyone in the coaching circle knows, but this guy once again refreshed the cognitive limit of his colleagues.

   After thinking about it for a while, Maurice Cheeks focused and thought about how to rotate at the end.

  Liu Xiu, a rookie, tried his best to hold the situation down. Maurice Cheeks felt that as a coach, he had to seize this opportunity.

   Kevin Plitter recovered after a wave of angry praises, and had a good discussion with Maurice Cheeks on how to fight... Suddenly, there were bursts of roars at the scene.

   The two looked at each other suspiciously, then looked to the left and then again... Finally, their eyes followed the others to the bench.

   Hearing the roars, ridicules, sarcasms… all kinds of voices, Maurice Cheeks was speechless…

   He had a hunch at the beginning when he heard the roar, which might have something to do with the team member they had just praised angrily.

   But what I didn't expect was that this guy was actually eating a lunch box!

  Kevin Plitcha flashed to Liu Xiu sitting on the bench and shouted, "What are you doing!"

   This speed makes Maurice Cheeks want to slap.

  If Kevin Plitcha was playing so fast, maybe he wouldn't end his NBA career in just 94 games?

  Liu Xiu raised her head, swallowed it in one gulp, picked up the boxed lunch and asked, "Coach, I'm hungry... Would you like to have a couple of bites too?"

   He tried it before, and after eating more than half of it, the effect was triggered, and he tried to give other people the shrimp and beef in it, but others just thought it was delicious, just ordinary food, only if he ate it would it be effective.

   Don't say, this box lunch tastes really good. Compared with the team's nutritious meal, it can be said to be the best in the world... For others to eat, Liu Xiu is a little reluctant.

  Looking at Liu Xiu's stingy effort to take the box lunch back at any time, Kevin Plitter got angry and shouted, "Eat it quickly! Or throw it away!"

   Then, Kevin Plitcha looked at Liu Xiufeng with a black line as he ate up the remaining half of the lunch box... "Mom, Fake!"

   Seeing that his colleague was about to explode, Maurice Cheeks pulled Kevin Pritchard away and said to Liu Xiu: "Jess, you have a good rest and get ready to play."

   Liu Xiu quickly responded: "I'm full, I have strength, I can continue to fight!"

  Young people are young people, even if the court behavior is too precocious and stable, but after all, they are still young people, and they desperately want to express themselves when they have the opportunity - Maurice Cheeks thought when he heard the words.

   But there is no limit to human potential! Thinking that Liu Xiu still scored 4 points in the last three rounds under such circumstances...

   Looking back on tonight's game situation, he had a bold idea!

  …

   Liu Xiu and Momonga looked at each other, but still didn't speak to each other.

   Momonga is so angry! As a senior, he didn't blame him for the nosebleed, but this rookie is still holding it!

   "Healing value +46, from Damon Stoudemire."

   Liu Xiu is very happy to be prompted by the system.

   Surprisingly, he continued to be replaced at the beginning of the fourth quarter!

   Said that to Maurice Cheeks, just trying to get on the court next.

   As a result, he was replaced with Momonga! Double point guard!

Speaking of which, the way of their Blazers head coach Maurice Cheeks is a bit wild. If it weren't for this, changing to a team with such fierce contradictions and such a bad team environment would have collapsed long ago, but Maurice Cheeks Sizhen let this team continue to maintain the strength of a first-class team.

Walking onto the court, Liu Xiu heard the cheers of the fans at the scene, and it seemed that the opposite side was also watching his good show... Being watched for fun, he was ready and wanted to go to the player tunnel for lunch, but it was possible that he was secretly photographed. It's more troublesome, it's better to eat here.

   Opener, really want to win! Liu Xiu put aside his thoughts and walked to the court with his teammates.

  Liu Xiu and Momoko partnered in the backcourt, and the Blazers frontcourt trio were Ruben Patterson, Randolph, and Rasheed Wallace.

   Reuben Patterson's start to the season has made him a little disillusioned - I, Kobe Terminator, is the player with the most minutes on a team and the most solid player on the court!

  It was definitely not arranged like this at the beginning, but as he played, Maurice Cheeks found that such a player who can defend, play hard, and shoot from high post is really useful after he has a master in low post.

   Ruben Patterson also works well when he is partnering with Momonga.

   On the Pistons side, Billups, Hamilton, and Ben Wallace continue to play, and Larry Brown coaches philosophy-the core is to die before winning.

  The small forward position was replaced by Darwin Hamm, and the center position was replaced by Selke Rebracia.

   "Darwin Hamm, 30 years old, 201 cm, 100 kg, SF/PF, ability rating 68, offense 62, defense 77…

  Selke-Rebrasha, 31 years old, 213 cm, 117 kg, C, ability rating 69…”

Darwin Hamm, undrafted in the golden generation of 1996, a hard-working little bee, who does not have much playing time, but as long as he plays, he will fight to the extreme on the defensive end; Selke Rebracia, the former center of the Yugoslav national team, was recruited in 1994. He was selected and entered the NBA in 2001. He has excellent mobile and defensive capabilities, and has a solid tonnage. His shortcomings are brittleness and many injuries.

   Liu Xiu saw the two opponents walking on the court, the player detection report came, and the information of the two opponents he investigated also recalled.

   Game preparation, he is serious.

  Larry Brown's rotation, you can see the purpose at a glance - continue to strengthen defense.

   gives the impression that this famous coach really has no other abilities.

   But don’t say it, but these days, such adjustments are often very effective.

   Liu Xiu appreciates the arrangement of head coach Maurice Cheeks during the break. To put it simply, you two can figure it out.
