Healing Basketball Chapter 118

Chapter 118 118. The king of pull-up jumpers

The entrance ceremony has ended, and the fanatical cheers of the fans have cooled down.

But the shocking feeling of the Blazers players when they came out has left a deep impression on the fans.

The visiting team players also recovered.

Pulled away from that emotion, Arenas was embarrassed and angry.

He actually felt a sense of oppression from a rookie!

Fortunately, he heard a few teammates say that they were frightened just now, and he felt a lot more comfortable.

He just felt oppressed, not frightened! This kind of thing has to be made clear, the difference is huge!

Moreover, the more important thing on the court is to play basketball! Even Bill Laimbeer is an All-Star player and a rebounder.

Arenas looked at the rookie opposite who had been sitting on the bench after entering, and cursed again.

When the rookie looked towards them, Arenas had already put on a proud posture, but the rookie's gaze didn't stay on him for even a second!

Although he is said to be very talented, he was lucky enough to score 52 points in a single game, but isn't he a rookie who averages less than 15 points per game? He's going to blow up this rookie!

Liu Xiu didn't pay attention to Arenas.

Competing with Arenas, then he is naturally... far behind.

Only two months older than Liu, Arenas already has an ability rating of 84, which is close to the level of a first-class star.

Fighting on the court, just do your best to deal with it, he is very pressing.

It's even better if you can learn something.

But he doesn't want to have any intersection with Arenas off the court, so he has no interest in Arenas except for games.

He is more curious about the opposite number one pick Kwame Brown…

"Kwame Brown, 21 years old, 211 cm, 118 kg, C/PF, ability rating 76, offense 67, defense 84, three-pointer-, mid-range shot-, layup 88, speed 84, power 93, bounce 94, Flexibility 88...10.2 points, 7.6 rebounds, 1.5 assists, 0.9 steals per game..."

Liu Xiu looked at the corner of her mouth and twitched - 'This physical fitness is like a joke. '

The last guy he saw with such speed, power, and bounce was Tim Duncan.

'The 21-year-old center has no skills and can average 10+7 per game depending on physical fitness. He was not popular in the first two years. He can still have a defense close to the first-class level at this age, which is much better than Jordan. !

Jordan's 22-year-old average of 7 points and 7 rebounds seems to have won an annual contract of 10 million yuan. Judging from this performance, the parallel champion seems to be working hard after the retirement of Boss Joe. Two years after Boss Qiao retired, he met the man who was more domineering than Boss Qiao...'

Thinking of this, Liu Xiu didn't find it strange.

Really, why should high school students embarrass high school students, and why should small hands embarrass small hands?

Liu Xiu sympathized with the high school student Xiaoshounan for three seconds, and silently condemned the high school student Xiaoshounan for three seconds.

Liu Xiu glanced at the entire team on the opposite side, Arenas, Stackhouse, Larry Hughes, this perimeter trio is very difficult to do!

After paying attention to the opponent he cared about, Liu Xiu put away his thoughts, reviewed the scouting report and found information, waited for the game to start, and prepared for the game through the actual situation of the game...

At this time, the system prompt comes!

"The two counter-attack geniuses in the eyes of the people, for the first time in their careers, stood on the court for a duel, and neither of them was willing to take a step back... Mission: The horizontal knife was triggered immediately."

"The horizontal knife immediately:

Goal 1: The host needs to ensure that the player with the highest score in this game is in the host's team.

Target 2: At least three of the five data points of the host, including points, assists, rebounds, steals, and blocks, are higher than or equal to Gilbert Arenas.

Goal 3: Win the game.

Reward: 1.3000 healing value, 2. Start follow-up missions.

Failure Penalty: For every lost target, the host will have a season of extreme sluggishness against Gilbert Arenas. "

"..." Liu Xiu looked at the mission that suddenly appeared, and after being silent for a while, she sprayed: "Treadmill, when did I not want to back down!"

Momonga, who was sitting next to Liu Xiu, heard the word again and asked a question - the warden likes tomatoes?

Back then, Momonga was also the most popular player in the city. The height of an ordinary person was close to the strength of an All-Star.

But since Sean Kemp came to their team, everything has changed. Momonga hangs out with Kemp, from on-court performance to off-court news, and has become hateful.

Last season, some media interviewed on the streets of Portland, and the Blazers fans hated the most hated players in the team, and the flying squirrel topped the list.

At that time, he didn't care what the fans thought of him. In the preseason this season, all he cared about was whether he could get a contract extension, not wanting to be robbed of the starting position, and wanting good statistics...

Now, he has regained his love for basketball, enjoys the game, and loves the cheers of the fans.

His stats dropped to the worst of his career this season, but his reputation was much better, and he won the love of the new-generation Blazers fans.

But he didn't participate in such a lively thing these days!

He regrets it now. He had known that he had a good relationship with Liu Xiu from the beginning, then he could enter the inner circle of the "Rose Bay Seven People", and it would be the first wave of appearances, then it would be the "Eight People"...

The Blazers sent a starting lineup of Jeff McGinnis, Ruben Patterson, Travis Outlaw, Randolph, and Rasheed Wallace.

After a lapse of more than a month, the extrajudicial fanatic got another chance to start.

The Wizards sent Arenas, Stackhouse, Larry Hughes, Kwame Brown, Brandon Haywood to the starting lineup.

At 7:30 p.m., the referee blew the whistle to start the game and threw the ball into the air. The game between the Trail Blazers and the Wizards at home started... Tianzun lost the jump ball!

Kwame Brown swiped the ball away from Tianzun's head! Wizards go first!

Kwame Brown's speed and height reminded the old fans at the scene of the Spurs' recently retired No. 1 draft pick, with a center body and a defender's bouncing.

The Trail Blazers have good discipline in retreating and defending, retreating steadily and falling into positional defense.

The Wizards' first offense at the start - Arenas singles.

Jeff McGinnis pressed up when Arenas was close to the three-point line and kept hitting Arenas with his body.

This is not the same as what Arenas knew when he was preparing for the battle, but he would not be cowardly, but instead became more excited because of the constant collision.

Arenas made a cross-step change, swooped, pulled horizontally, accelerated again, and made an emergency stop jumper shot inside the free throw line... Tianzun's defense was in place, Arenas made an emergency stop jumper!

Randolph protected the defensive rebound well. When the Trail Blazers attacked, it was a double tower. Tianzun came out to catch the ball and go to the basket.

Kwame Brown was taken out by Tianzun, and Randolph turned around and hit a small hook under Haywood's defense.

When the Wizards attacked, the person holding the ball changed, and Stackhouse received the serve and advanced to the frontcourt singles.

The Wizards' opening tactics—the three perimeter stars take turns playing singles, and the double centers attack offensive rebounds.

Singles, when encountering a double team, pass the ball if the passing opportunity is good, or play it alone to the end if it is not good.

This is really purely relying on the personal ability of the three stars to play the game.

The Trail Blazers is a team offensive tactic in which Randolph launches the attack from a low position and Tianzun responds to the ball from a high position.

In terms of coordination, the Trail Blazers are much stronger, and the double-tower-centered play is theoretically more stable than the Wizards' three-star outside star alternate singles.

But the twin towers of the Wizards' two defensive centers with a height of 2.1 meters have caused big trouble for the Blazers' twin towers.

Randolph can still score relatively stable inside, and Tianzun can only pull out to find opportunities to respond.

Fortunately, Haywood couldn't expand to defend, Tianzun pulled out to the outside line, and took out Kwame Brown, Randolph stood firm inside, Travis Outlaw cut in to compress outside players to defend inside, Tianzun, Jie Husband McGinnis and Ruben Patterson have more outside shooting opportunities.

Only in such a situation, the Trail Blazers can barely maintain stability on the offensive end, unable to hit an offensive climax.

But the three outside stars of the Wizards were capable enough to hit 3 minutes and 41 seconds in the first quarter. Arenas made an emergency stop and made a three-pointer, 11 to 10, and the Wizards overtook the Blazers by 1 point.

Maurice Cheeks called timeout with a headache! As soon as the pause sounded, he saw Liu Xiu immediately stand up and take off his training suit, and he was instantly happy.

I'm really not afraid of not replacing you?

According to the usual rotation habits, he usually replaces Liu Xiu after the official suspension.

It is not uncommon to call a timeout at this time, but most of the time, it is to adjust the lineup and adjust the style of play, instead of changing the style of play to rotate widely.

But this time he is indeed doing a large-scale rotation. It can only be said that this kid's ability to judge the situation is too good.

The Blazers made personnel adjustments, and the combination of Damon Stoudemire, Liu Xiu, Ruben Patterson, Randolph, and Rasheed Wallace was replaced.

Liu Xiu looked at the opposite side, and the opposite side also made personnel adjustments.

The combination of Blevin Knight, Arenas, Larry Hughes, Kwame Brown and Haywood played.

"Damon, look, there is someone on the other side who seems to be shorter than you!"

Momonga clenched his fists - he felt that it wasn't his problem that he didn't have a good relationship with Liu Xiu at first, it was the rookie who really owed it!

Momonga ran onto the field with open arms, which was very annoyed, causing bursts of cheers.

Only the cheers of the fans can soothe his injured heart.

When Liu Xiu stepped onto the court, the system prompt came, and he made a choice, a very simple choice.

"The Great Mage:

Copy opponent: Gilbert Arenas, 21 years old, 191 cm, 87 kg, PG/SG, ability rating 84, offense 90, defense 78, speed 90, strength 84, bounce 92...Average 19.8 points, 4.7 rebounds, 5.2 Assists 1.9 steals…

Good at technology transformation talent: perfect braking.

Bonus effect: When an emergency stop is required in technical movements such as breakthrough and direction change, the strength of the ankles, knees, waist and abdomen will be greatly enhanced. "

Sure enough, this is it!

Among Arenas' skills, Liu Xiu thinks this is the strongest.

Unfortunately, there are no bonuses such as the ability and bounce of the emergency stop jumper itself.

These require a higher match, like the 95% match of Baron Davis, which is rare.

Curious thing comes again... Why is Kwame Brown's defense only 84 excellent?

As far as the performance in this half-period is concerned, it is a first-class level!

If there is no insider like Tianzun who can shoot outside the three-point line, Haywood tops the man, Kwame Brown blocks the block, and two big centers with a height of 2 meters and a weight of 115 kg or more are guarding the basket and the no-fly zone. All right!

The timeout ends, and the Trail Blazers attack.

This wave of rotation is naturally the main attack of Momo.

But Blevin Knight can keep up when Momonga changes direction!

Momonga didn't get the chance to make an emergency stop or take a step-back jumper, and chose to make a deep breakthrough. Seeing this, Ruben Patterson moved from the bottom line to grab the ball from the bottom line to the high set-point catch-and-shoot position. Larry Hughes followed, but he didn't keep going. Follow Ruben Patterson, but flank Momo!

The timing of the pinch attack was very good, and the position was also very good. In an instant, Momomo did not have a chance to pass the ball to Ruben Patterson!

But a veteran is a veteran after all, Momonga didn't panic, he rushed into the inside line with his head sullen, and shot in the crowd... "Crack"... was capped!

Momonga doesn't know who has been hated, the technical desk has to spend some time to look carefully at the statistics.

The ball was finally grabbed by Haywood, and the Blazers failed this offense, but Kevin Plitcha on the sideline nodded, and Maurice Cheeks also admired it.

As he got older, he was cured by the warden again, and his anger began to dissipate. Although there were still troubles off the court, Momo was playing smarter and smarter on the court.

The choice of Momonga avoids the ball being directly snatched away, and also avoids being too far away to be countered by Arenas or Larry Hughes.

Offensive and defensive transition, Blevin Knight advanced to the frontcourt and did not hold the ball to organize the offense, but passed the ball to Arenas, and then drilled inside.

This style of play is completely different from that of Momo. Blevin Knight does not pull the ball away after passing it, but interspersed with moves, wandering around the three-point line, going around piles, and borrowing pick-and-rolls.

"Blevin Knight, 28 years old, 178 cm, 78 kg, PG, ability rating 77, offense 70, defense—, passing ability 93...speed 94..."

Blevin Knight drilled inside like a loach. Although Momo was faster, it was still very difficult to chase. The teammates could not let Blevin Knight run out of opportunities easily. Tianzun's defense focus was on on Blevin Knight.

The purpose of Blevin Knight's movement is not to get opportunities, but to create singles opportunities for Arenas on the outside!

Outside, Arenas got the ball and was stuck by Liu Xiu.

Arenas took a step away, pulled horizontally before Liu Xiu re-posted it, and took another cross step to get a big gap and break through!

Liu Xiu, who was continuously shaken away, did not give up, turned around and chased after him. Arenas made a pull-up jumper at the free throw line...

Liu Xiu almost fell because of Arenas' emergency stop!

Arenas is like a sports car with perfect braking, and suddenly stops in the process of accelerating breakthrough!

This scene made Liu Xiu, who played against Arenas in person, feel knee pain.

Blevin Knight contained Tianzun. When Arenas shot, it was no different from the big gap... Enter!
