Chapter 979 Chapter 979. Is it so vulgar?
"Scoring King: Lord of the Ages" series of missions related to LeBron James.
Goal: Defeat LeBron James to win the 2007-2008 regular season scoring title.
Reward: LeBron James Headband (equipment). "
After defeating the Cavaliers, Liu Xiu received a mission reminder.
This time against James, winning was easier than Liu Xiu expected.
Although James' overall defense this season is not particularly good, he has already reached an excellent level after the All-Star Weekend, and his defense against the Cavaliers has improved considerably.
Liu Xiu was ready to fight a fierce defensive battle, but unexpectedly, the opponent actually played like this...
He can win easily, of course he is very happy.
After the second day of playing the Cavaliers, the Trail Blazers returned to Portland.
After 5 consecutive away trips, the Trail Blazers got two days off, and the coach decided to have two days off.
Liu Xiu felt the confusion of his team's "time management" this season.
For the sake of health, they can do anything. In the last few games, Randolph and Kwame Brown played about the same amount of time as Millsap and McDyess.
The effect is also very good. Although the three major stars had a collective injury period in the middle of the season, their number of injuries this season is the least in three seasons.
Not everyone is on vacation. On the second rest day, Liu Xiu came to the Willamed Garden Arena for training, and saw Lu Wei and Birdman also coming.
Lu Wei is practicing basic skills, high school students, the worst is all basic skills.
Birdman is practicing defensive rebounds.
Seeing the warden working so hard, Reed and Birdman are also very motivated.
Their playing time is limited, and they have plenty of physical strength... They can't work harder than the warden, right...
At noon, Liu Xiu received the trophy from the league—he won the Western Conference Player of the Week award last week!
Although he only had 2 wins and 2 losses last week, he had 3 triple-doubles in 4 games, averaging 43 points, 9.5 rebounds and 13 assists per game... The most important thing is to get a 60+ triple-double, and successfully won the 6th week of the season. best player award.
This also tied his own record of 6 player of the week awards in a single season set in the 04-05 season!
…
Two days of rest passed in a flash, and on March 16, the Trail Blazers won 107-96 at home against the Timberwolves.
In this game, Liu Xiu scored 31 points, 7 rebounds, 16 assists and 4 steals. The Trail Blazers had 32 assists. After two days of rest, everyone was full of energy and the team cooperated very well.
The seemingly unreliable coach said that "resting is more beneficial than practicing for another day", this time it was verified.
After a day off, on the 18th, the Trail Blazers ushered in a challenge from the Clippers at home, winning 112 to 104, winning 4 consecutive victories, and improving their record to 46 wins and 20 losses!
In this game, Liu Xiu made 13 of 24 shots, including 1 of 3 three-pointers and 7 of 7 free throws. He scored 34 points, 8 rebounds, 17 assists, 3 steals and 1 block.
On the 19th, the Trail Blazers ushered in back-to-back challenges from the Suns at home.
The Suns played 14 games after the All-Star weekend, with 6 wins and 8 losses, and they are currently 42 wins and 24 losses.
After spending the most difficult time, Nash has become accustomed to such a difficult situation.
He could see that O'Neal worked very hard after coming to their Suns and wanted to prove himself.
In the last 7 games, O'Neal averaged 13 rebounds per game, raising his average rebounds per game to 11 after joining the Suns.
But old, injured, unsuitable style of play...Only 12.5 points per game.
No offense, no defense.
The offense only has two strikes when the physical strength is the most abundant, and the defense only has the one to defend the layup.
At present, the Suns have dropped out of the top five in the league in scoring per game, surpassed by the Trail Blazers and the Jazz.
The average conceded points per game of the Suns is still in the top five in the league. The average conceded points per game has exceeded 106 points. Only the Warriors conceded 108 points per game, the Nuggets 107.4 points per game, and the Nuggets 107.2 points per game. The Grizzlies with 106.9 points and the Sonics with 106.9 points.
At 10:22 p.m., after two hours and 22 minutes of play, the two teams decided the winner.
Liu Xiu scored 36 points, 7 rebounds, 14 assists, 2 steals and 3 blocks, Ray Allen 22 points, Kwame Brown 16 points and 15 rebounds, Randolph 12 points and 14 rebounds, Reed 12 points, Millsap 8 points...
The Trail Blazers beat the Suns 112 to 98.
Nash made 9 of 16 shots and scored 22 points and 6 assists. His scoring average is rising and his assists per game are declining.
Judging from his performance after the All-Star Weekend, if O'Neal hadn't joined late, Nash might not have averaged double figures in assists per game for the first time in his career.
…
5 consecutive victories, the record has improved to 47 wins and 20 losses, and 50 wins are not far away.
Although there are still as many as 6 games to be played in the second half of the year, the schedule is intensive, and the opponents are also quite strong, but winning 3 of them is not a big problem.
Get 50 wins, even if you keep the bottom line of a strong team, it will be a lot easier in April.
Liu Xiu was very happy about this, but another thing made him feel pained...
On the afternoon of the 20th, the Trail Blazers left Portland for Los Angeles, followed by a wave of 4 consecutive away, first of all, the two teams in Angel City.
Liu Xiu sat alone in the corner watching the video, no one went up to touch him, even Randolph chose to ignore him for now.
If you have a good relationship, you will be more measured, and you can't annoy the other party when you know that the other party is in a bad mood.
To be noisy is to make everyone happy, not to make everyone unhappy.
Others are afraid to...
But not everyone dares, the two heads of the team management and coaching staff dare.
The vice president and the head coach came to sit opposite Liu Xiu with red wine and a cup.
The coach took the wine bottle from the vice president's hand, poured three and a half glasses, and handed one of them to Liu Xiu.
Seeing the old friend's rude pouring technique and casual amount, the vice president rolled his eyes.
Upon seeing this, the coach complained: "You still have the same old problem. You don't have the life of a capitalist, but you have the disease of a capitalist."
The vice president replied in a rare way: "I am happy!"
Liu Xiu looked at the two suspiciously.
The coach asked: "Are you thinking about rebounding in the recent game?"
Liu Xiu nodded, this matter is not a secret.
He failed to rebound in double figures in 4 consecutive games. This is the first time since the start of the season.
The hottest news about the Trail Blazers at the moment is not that they have won 5 consecutive victories, nor that they are about to fight against the Lakers and Spurs, but that the opponents have found a way to limit his triple-double.
The vice president saw that Liu Xiu was struggling with this matter, and comforted him: "Jess, you don't care if you can average a triple-double, and statistics are not important to you..."
Before the vice president finished comforting her, Liu Xiu interrupted: "Of course I care! Can you take it seriously when you are perfunctory to those reporters? I have maintained an average triple-double in more than 60 games, and it is too bad that I didn't keep it in the last dozen or so games." .”
Vice President: "..."
Is it so vulgar?
