MTL - Healing Basketball-Chapter 969 969. Emperor Yi is currently the most suitable target
Relying on this wave of 4 consecutive victories, the Trail Blazers also rushed from fifth in the West to third in the West, surpassing the Suns and Jazz.
NBA officials all came off the court to praise Liu Xiu's performance this time, and hinted that the "Warden's March Madness" is about to start, trying to compete with the NCAA's upcoming March Madness for attention.
However, the most news Liu Xiu saw about him was still related to the triple-double.
He felt that Stern was wasting his time.
He now makes headlines once he gets a triple-double, and he doesn't need to bother to hype "March Madness".
Today, Liu Xiu is practicing again. The "effective training" of three-pointers is more difficult than he expected!
Those shots made during the game are basically not considered effective shots in training.
The "valid" judged by the system is the "standard shooting action" calculated based on his shooting action and physical fitness.
According to this shooting action training, the training efficiency is the highest.
The effect of training will not affect his shooting action during the game, because his action during the game is just an adjustment of his "standard training action" according to the actual situation.
So after a few days, his training progress can only be described in words.
But the advantage is that he can use this to adjust the training method of the basic skills of the three-pointer, so he is not in a hurry. He can practice two or three groups a day. After he is proficient, he will naturally be faster.
The one-day break has passed, and February 29th, which comes only once in four years, has arrived.
In the evening, the Trail Blazers came to the Staples Center to challenge the Lakers away.
After entering the arena, Liu Xiu and Wang Zhizhi chatted for a while, but they haven't seen each other for a while. This is the first time the two have played against each other this season.
In this year's schedule, the Blazers' games against the Eagles and Pistons are all scheduled before the All-Star Weekend, and their games against the Lakers and Suns are all scheduled after the All-Star Weekend.
While Liu Xiu and Wang Zhizhi were chatting, Kobe walked up to the two of them. Liu Xiu and Kobe looked at each other in dislike, then turned and left.
Wang Zhizhi is not surprised. There is something wrong with the designation of these two goods.
"Los Angeles Lakers, 41 wins and 14 losses, averaging 108.6 points per game, conceding 101.4 points per game..."
Back from the All-Star weekend, the Lakers played 3 games and won all.
Liu Xiu's eyes were fixed on the round-headed bald man opposite.
David West!
This guy integrated into the Lakers almost immediately, averaging 17 points, 7.3 rebounds, 3 assists, 1 steal and 0.7 blocks in 3 games, shooting 50% from the field and 83% from the free throw line.
Can shoot, can play in low post, can pass, can grab rebounds... He fits very well with Deron and Kobe's guard line.
However, Kobe's scoring average in these three games has dropped from 29.2 points per game before the All-Star Weekend to 24.7 points per game, but Liu Xiu saw Kobe and David West laughing so much that his tonsils were exposed when he chatted, so he knew that this guy didn't care about this. .
Deron, averaged 15 points and 13.3 assists in these 3 games...
Wang Zhizhi's player detection report shows that his ability evaluation has reached its peak, 81.
The data has been stable so far this season, and the addition of David West has little effect on him. He played 50 games, averaging 11.7 points, 6.3 rebounds, 2.9 assists, and 1.2 blocks per game. The three-point shooting rate averaged 1.6 three-pointers per game, coupled with one-handed passing, and a decent low-post attack, allowing him to mix in several lineups of the Lakers like a duck to water.
When the tactical system was built, his characteristics have been taken into account.
Wang Zhizhi, who has reached his peak at the age of 30, is destined to have nothing to do with becoming a star, but he is not bad, and has become a jack-of-all-trades insider. He has already renewed his contract in advance and got a 4-year 25 million dollar fat contract.
Yi Jianlian's side, Liu Xiu's current expectation for him is to get to Dazhi's current status in the team, to get to this point first and then talk about the next thing.
Instead of forcing pressure like those media who don't know whether it is stupid or bad.
…
At 8 o'clock in the evening, the Trail Blazers' away game against the Lakers started.
Trail Blazers starters: Liu Xiu, Ray Allen, Hill, Randolph, Kwame Brown.
Lakers starting: Deron, Bryant, Luke - Walton, David - West, Wang Zhizhi.
After the start of the game, the two teams both turned on the bombardment mode.
The defense of the two teams is not good this year. The twin towers of the Lakers before the All-Star Weekend were Wang Zhizhi and Magloire, or Wang Zhizhi and Channing Frye. As for David West, the situation is similar.
On the Trail Blazers side, apart from Hill's injury problems, there are other factors that are not good in defense.
Randolph's defensive willingness declined in the regular season, and the deeper the season, the more so, maybe it will get better in the playoffs.
Ray Allen is very self-disciplined and has adjusted his body well, but he has also been affected by playing more than 100 games for two consecutive years. This year's offensive efficiency has remained excellent, better than last season, and he didn't collapse for too long in the middle. The All-Star weekend came back and quickly entered the state.
But the continuation of Ray Allen's super offensive end also sacrificed defense.
5 starters and 3 pitfalls, even Liu Xiu and Kwame Brown are the two best defense-level defensive masters, and they can't support the field.
On the Lakers side, there is Kobe Bryant, a big man who is determined to defend, but he didn't support it.
The head coaches of the two teams don't bother with this, just try their best to do a good job in basic defense.
But tonight, they didn't do a good job on basic defense...
For the Lakers in the first quarter, Deron scored 7 points and 3 assists, Kobe 8 points, Wang Zhizhi 3 points, David West 5 points, 2 rebounds and 2 assists, Odom came off the bench with 4 points and 2 rebounds, Fisher 3 points, Farmar 5 points...
For the Trail Blazers, Liu Xiu had 8 points, 1 rebound, 3 assists and 1 turnover, Ray Allen had 4 points, Kwame Brown had 5 points, Randolph had 3 points, Korver had 2 points, Outlaws had 6 points, Hill had 2 points and 2 assists…
35 to 30 leading the Trail Blazers by 5 points, the Lakers took the initiative in the first quarter!
The Blazers have a high offensive efficiency, but the Lakers are even higher!
After the Lakers had David West, their inside offensive strength, their style of play has undergone earth-shaking changes.
Compared with Liu Xiu's impression of the leap after Gasol joined, there is a big gap.
but!
The Lakers still have Deron! And Wang Zhizhi!
Faced with this situation, the choice of the Trail Blazers is...continue to strengthen the offense!
Don't try to knock the defense, Maurice Cheeks doesn't do what they are not good at now, and continue to play their advantages.
In the second quarter, the Trail Blazers blossomed more. Ray Allen scored 6 points and 2 assists. Kwame Brown and Randolph both scored 3 points after only half a quarter. Hill scored 3 points and 1 rebound. 1 assist, Blake has 6 points and 2 assists, and the outlaws have 2 points, 1 rebound and 2 assists. The team's offense is very good!
The best is Liu Xiu, who quickly switches between holding and off the ball—4 of 6 shots, including 1 of 2 three-pointers, plus 5 of 5 free throws, scoring 14 points and 2 assists in a single quarter!
During the All-Star Weekend, the coaching staff of the Trail Blazers made adjustments to their tactical play based on their performance in the first half of the season. Tonight, due to the pressure brought by the Lakers' super offensive firepower, there has been significant improvement!
