Chapter 919 Chapter 919. A big dog with a big heart
In terms of the best rookie of the month, the performance of this year's rookies is not satisfactory.
It’s not too bad to say how bad it is, but the overall situation did not meet the expectations before the start of the season.
In the East, Jeff Green of the Celtics averaged 12.8 points and 4.2 rebounds per game; in the West, Kevin Durant of the Supersonics averaged 18.8 points, 4.4 rebounds and 2 assists per game.
The best coach of the month, East, Stan Van Gundy of the Magic; West, Phil Jackson of the Lakers.
Player of the Month Award.
In the East, Artest of the Pacers, 12 wins and 4 losses, averaging 25 points, 7.3 rebounds, 3.5 assists and 2.5 steals per game.
West, Liu Xiu of the Trail Blazers, 9 wins and 7 losses, averaging 28 points, 11 rebounds, 10.9 assists, 3 steals and 0.625 blocks per game.
After playing for one month, Liu Xiu felt that a "node" had passed. At this time, he reviewed his performance in the first month of competition... When he entered the sewer, his playing career changed...
Anyway, no matter whether you win or lose recently, the media are going crazy.
Everyone is asking him if he's going to get a triple-double next game...
After arriving in Memphis in the afternoon, he received the Western Conference Player of the Month award from league officials.
Winning the award with 9 wins and 7 losses, he felt a little bit guilty... But after watching the TV news report and browsing the forums online, his confidence came all at once.
Public opinion generally believes that he deserves his name.
Everyone is touting his triple-double.
Also, after his two consecutive triple-doubles, his triple-doubles this season has reached 7 times, and the number of triple-doubles in a single month exceeds the number of triple-doubles in the entire season of his sophomore year.
He is quite proud of the triple-double game, and he worked hard to get it.
But 7 triple-doubles surpassed the number of triple-doubles in a season in the second grade. If others don't talk about it, he really didn't notice it.
This is actually considered a 'record'.
Liu Xiu was very happy to win the best player of the month award, and the emotional impact brought about by the record has calmed down a lot.
In the evening, another good news came! Great news for the team!
…
On the night of December 1, 2007, the Trail Blazers reached a deal with the 76ers.
The Trail Blazers sent Deshaun Stevenson, Juwan Howard, and the 2008 first-round pick, and exchanged Kyler Korver from the 76ers!
After receiving the notice from the management to switch back to Korver, Liu Xiu jumped up excitedly.
This is one of the best pure pitchers in the league!
Liu Xiu remembers, this guy was selected as an All-Star once when he was 34 years old!
However, in exchange for Korver and sending away Stevenson, the back line defense further collapsed...
also sent a first round…
It's a surprise that Juwan Howard can still come in handy.
He looked online, and sure enough, people didn't think highly of this deal.
Korver performed very well last season. As a pure shooter, the 76ers were so chaotic last season. He could still shoot 44% from the field and 43% from three-point range. The shooting stability is so strong, averaging 14.4 points per game.
But after the 76ers changed their style of play this season, Korver's performance plummeted, averaging only 7.2 points per game, shooting 39.6% from the field and 35.2% from the three-point range.
This makes Korver's transaction value not so high in the eyes of the media and fans. A Stevenson or a first-round pick is enough.
However, the media soon revealed that the Trail Blazers had been overpriced.
The Trail Blazers have rivals the Jazz. The Jazz use Ruben Patterson, who averaged 13.1 points per game last season, and Matt Harperin, who averaged 10.6 points per game last season. Sign the offer and compete with the Trail Blazers.
The Trail Blazers originally gave a second-round pick, but in the end the price increase was added to the first-round pick.
Liu Xiu felt that it was really difficult for the vice president and the general manager this year, and finally met a favorite object, and was robbed by others.
However, on the second day, Liu Xiu felt how generous the big dog is...
After a night of rest in Memphis, the Trail Blazers arrived on the first game day of the new month, and came to the FedEx Arena to prepare for the game in the morning.
After lunch, Liu Xiu chatted with the coach and learned that the big dog wanted revenge because he was tricked by the Jazz.
The Jazz failed to get Korver, but they had an alternative—Heat's Jason Kapono.
The information was inquired by John Nash, and the boss ordered John Nash to raise the price!
So, the Trail Blazers offered McDyess to the Heat.
Liu Xiu was overjoyed when he heard the news.
The extrajudicial fanatics who watched worriedly asked: "What if they agree? I remember that Riley is not a tight-lipped person. He might say it, and Antonio will be sad."
The coach responded with a smile: "Don't worry, we told Antonio about this in advance.
Riley will not want Antonio. The Heat have no shortage of insiders. They sent Kapono away purely to get rid of Kapono's 4-year, 23 million mid-level contract. O'Neal only averaged 14 points and 7 rebounds per game this season. Unable to compete for the championship, Riley must lower his salary, and their boss refuses to pay the luxury tax. "
Liu Xiu immediately said: "And even if the oily head enters the seawater of the south coast and accepts the offer, we can withdraw the offer, it doesn't matter."
The warden is a college student. He is about to graduate with a master's degree. The head coach also has a bachelor's degree... Hearing what the two of them said, the extrajudicial lunatic feels that scholars cannot be offended!
so bad!
…
Stevenson was traded away, and the atmosphere in the Trail Blazers team improved a lot.
Although Stevenson played an important role in completing the three consecutive championships, he has not been liked by his teammates.
During the offseason, the team renewed Stevenson's contract. Other players did not resist, but many people were happy to send him away.
Especially after not being reused this season, I had conflicts with my teammates during training, and my usual speech was even worse...
Liu Xiu is also very happy about this transaction.
He will choose to be patient with teammates who are capable but have weird personalities, as long as they don't provoke him.
But this season is full of things, and Stevenson is still tossing in the team. Once or twice, Liu Xiu thinks he can bear it, and the more times, he is also annoyed.
When he first learned that Stevenson was the most likely option to be traded, he had no objection at all.
The team directly asked Korver to go to the last stop of the three-game streak. After the training this morning, the vice president has already taken the trainer to San Antonio. Hurry up and go through the formalities, and strive to get reinforcements on the offensive end in the next game .
New aid won't come today, but it doesn't matter, the opponent has the potential to continue to dominate the bottom of the Western Conference tonight.
At 8 o'clock in the evening, the Trail Blazers' away game against the Grizzlies started.
The Grizzlies have no fighting spirit to speak of. After Gasol found that the better he played, the more inseparable he was.
Liu Xiu made 17 of 28 shots, including 5 of 6 three-pointers, but only 4 free throws, 3 of 4 free throws, and scored 42 points, 13 rebounds, 7 assists, 5 steals and 1 block!
Adding Ray Allen's 23 points, Randolph's 13 points and 6 rebounds, and the outlaw's 21 points, 7 rebounds and 2 assists... The Trail Blazers beat the Grizzlies 106 to 91, improving their record to 10 wins and 7 losses!
