1075. The massacre caused by the end of the four consecutive MVPs(2/3)
The healing value is close to 150,000 again. Taking into account the best lineup and the overall season evaluation, Liu Xiu estimates that the healing value is more than 200,000. This summer's training must be enough.
At present, he has no urgent need to break through the upper limit of technical skills and basic skills. After completing the mid-range shooting training task, he can devote most of his energy in the summer to mid-range shooting training. Moreover, he still has the Turkey Basketball World Championships to compete in. Breaking through the upper limit of talent is a must.
There's no rush.
After a day of rest + fan appreciation event on the 19th, the Trail Blazers got into the next series with the Hornets on the 20th.
The Hornets and Rockets have both entered the playoffs. Liu Xiu once felt that they were not as good as the third-placed team in the Western Conference and entered the playoffs... Of course, this is what he will complain about when he complains. If he does it again... he
I really wanted to beat the Thunder again, but it's a pity that the Thunder didn't make the playoffs.
On April 21st, the first game day of this season's playoffs has arrived, and the Trail Blazers will usher in the first leg of the playoffs.
The Trail Blazers had a 2-1 record with the Hornets in the regular season. The Hornets had the starting lineup of Westbrook, Devin Brown, Radmanovic, Horford, and Aldridge, and Darren - on the bench.
Collison, Livingston, Maurice Peterson, Darius Songela, Marcus Thornton... and other talented substitutes are very difficult to deal with.
Turtle played 80 games in the regular season this season, averaging 18.3 points, 8.2 rebounds and 8.4 assists per game. He scored 17 triple-doubles this season, with a total of more than 30 triple-doubles. He became the most triple-doubles among active players after two years of playing.
The player with the most is unparalleled in this aspect and is predicted to possibly surpass the Warden in this aspect.
Liu Xiu didn't know how to complain when he saw this kind of "record" with countless restrictions added.
These media have all been led astray by ESPN.
At 8:30 pm, the series between the Trail Blazers and the Hornets kicked off.
In the first quarter, the Trail Blazers and the Hornets tied at 23. Horford guided the retreat, and the Turtles' offense controlled the rhythm. The two cooperated very well.
Turtle's breakthrough points, Horford's support, Aldridge's singles, plus Devin Brown and Radmanovic's support, the game was as good as ever.
The key is to be tough!
Horford and Aldridge are both skilled players with strong ability to withstand pressure, but their playing style is soft. Turtle has limited skills but good health and a very tough playing style. They don't need to find the right fit, as if they were born to fit each other.
, need each other.
The five young players from the Thunder are rated as the most talented and have the most potential, but after playing against each other, Liu Xiu feels that the Hornets, which selected Aldridge in 2006, Horford in 2007, and Turtle in 2008, are not weaker than the Thunder in talent.
The fifth young master is even more powerful in combat.
What makes the media regretful is that after Bogut recovered from his injury, because he signed a medical contract with a Hollywood company that makes films for adults, he was dragged into making movies after his injury, and became a professional actor and a middle-aged and elderly woman.
The object of their favor...
After being tied with the Trail Blazers in the first quarter, the Turtles played even harder in the second quarter and successfully scored consecutive breakthroughs, helping the Hornets score 27 points in a single quarter and once suppressed the Trail Blazers, who were second in the Western Conference on the road.
One head.
Fortunately, Ray Allen made a key three-pointer. At the end of the second quarter, the Trail Blazers scored 27 points in a single quarter, and entered the second half tied at 50 with the Hornets.
The difference in strength was revealed in the third quarter.
In the third quarter, Liu Xiu made 5 of 8 shots, including 1 of 3 three-pointers. Without free throws, he scored 11 points, 2 rebounds, 2 assists, 3 steals and 2 blocks in a single quarter.
Ray Allen made 3 of 7 shots, including 2 of 3 three-pointers, and scored 8 points in a single quarter.
The two teamed up to lead the team to another 27 points in a single quarter, and the trio of Liu Xiu, Outlaws, and Kwame Brown, plus Ray Allen, Korver, Hill, and Batum,
Gasol, Birdman and others took turns to play, and the whole team worked together to prevent the Hornets from scoring only 13 points in a single quarter!
77 to 63, the Trail Blazers established a 14-point advantage in a single quarter and stunned the Hornets.
At the end of the quarter, the Turtles fought back and scored 10 points and 3 assists in a single quarter. Their desperate energy successfully inspired the hard work of Horford and Aldridge, who have soft personalities. The three led the team to score 10 points and 3 assists in a single quarter.
36 points.
It's a pity that the Trail Blazers are very stable. Liu Xiu scored 8 points, Ray Allen 10 points, Kwame Brown 5 points... scored 30 points in a single quarter and defended the victory!
Liu Xiu scored 31 points, 13 rebounds, 6 assists, 6 steals and 2 blocks, Ray Allen had 29 points, 2 rebounds and 5 assists, Outlaws had 13 points, Kwame Brown had 11 points and 13 rebounds, and 4 players from the Trail Blazers scored in double figures.
, defeated the Hornets 107-99 and won the first victory in the series!
…
Fortunately, the home court advantage was maintained! Liu Xiu and his teammates were shocked by the strength displayed by the Hornets.
Without an inside advantage, I’m really not used to it in the playoffs!
Yes, mainly because I'm not used to it.
Liu Xiu knows that the firepower of him and Ray Allen is enough to make up for the lack of scoring ability inside.
But after playing for so many years, Randolph has been supporting the offense in the playoffs, allowing him to score freely from the outside. Now all offenses revolve around him and Ray Allen, Korver, Bibby and others who can shoot.
The scoring process has become very different, so I'm not used to it.
Especially seeing the performance of the twin towers opposite!
Turtle was the most eye-catching player for the Hornets in the first game. He made 10 of 21 shots, plus 4 of 5 free throws. He scored 24 points, 9 rebounds, 8 assists and 2 steals. He was the second-highest scorer of the Hornets and had the highest rebounds and assists.
But Aldridge's 33 points, 6 rebounds, 2 assists and 1 block are the backbone of the Hornets.
Horford's 10 points, 8 rebounds, 4 assists, 2 steals and 1 block were the core of the Hornets' offense and defense.
However, neither of them has the temperament or ambition to be the boss, and both internally and externally say that Guigui is their leader.
For the Trail Blazers, Aldridge's excellent mid-range shooting ability is really difficult to deal with. Horford also has a mid-range shot and is very good in wing pick-and-rolls. That is to say, the turtles can't pick-and-roll, otherwise the Hornets' offense will be more difficult to defend.
…
After a day of rest, on the 23rd, the Trail Blazers ushered in the second game of the series against the Hornets at home. After 2 hours and 22 minutes of play, the game was decided at 10:22 pm, with the Trail Blazers leading 96
Bi101 lost to the Hornets at home and suffered an upset!
Turtle scored 10 points, 19 rebounds and 15 assists, Horford had 7 points, 8 rebounds and 4 assists, Radmanovic made 6 of 8 open three-pointers and scored 27 points in a single game, Aldridge scored 29 points...
Liu Xiu also grabbed a lot of rebounds, scoring 24 points, 15 rebounds and 7 of them, but he couldn't beat Turtle!
Tonight's turtle reminds Liu Xiu of the poker face who caused trouble in the east this year!
The score was tied at 1-1, and the Trail Blazers felt tremendous pressure.
But victory or defeat is a common thing in military affairs. They were just deprived of a home court advantage. Although the Trail Blazers felt the pressure, they responded calmly, rested well, discussed well, and prepared well...
After two days of rest and preparation, the Blazers came to the New Orleans Arena in New Orleans to start a showdown with the Hornets.
In the first quarter, the Trail Blazers scored 28 to 16, winning by 12 points in a single quarter. However, before the Trail Blazers could be happy, the Hornets defeated the Trail Blazers 29 to 18 in the second quarter. After halftime, the Hornets
The team chased the score to 45-46, narrowing the point difference to only 1 point!
In the third quarter, the Hornets continued their efforts and tied the score 23-22 in a single quarter.
Fortunately, in the final quarter, the Hornets' defensive pace began to fail to keep up with the super backcourt pair of Liu Xiu and Ray Allen. Ray Allen made 4 of 6 shots, including 3 of 4 three-pointers, and Liu scored 11 points in a single quarter.
Show made 2 of 4 shots, including 2 of 3 three-pointers, plus 4 of 4 free throws, for 10 points in a single quarter.
Gasol played an important role. Confrontation and defensive interference could not affect his passing accuracy at all. He scored 2 points, 2 rebounds and 4 assists in a single quarter!
Under the leadership of these three people, the Trail Blazers scored 28-22 in the final quarter!
96 to 90, the Trail Blazers defeated the Hornets in an away game and regained the home court advantage, leading by a big score of 2 to 1!
Liu Xiu had 40 points, 11 rebounds and 5 assists, Ray Allen had 25 points, Gasol had 11 points, 8 rebounds and 6 assists, and Kwame Brown had 6 points and 22 rebounds.
When it comes to the playoffs, you still have to watch the stars!
Gasol can stand up at this time, his talent is obvious!
Turtle made 2 of 12 shots tonight, including 1 of 7 three-pointers, plus 7 of 7 free throws. He scored 12 points, 5 rebounds and 6 assists, and had the worst game since the start of the series.
His performance in G2 made him a thorn in the side of the Trail Blazers tonight, and he was heavily guarded.
Byron Scott responded too slowly and failed to take advantage of this, which blinded Aldridge to another top power forward performance of 30+ points in a single game.
The necessary changes will still come. On April 28, the Hornets ushered in the fourth game of the series against the Trail Blazers at home.
Relying on Aldridge's 22 points, Horford's 15 points, 9 rebounds and 2 assists, Turtle's 18 points, 6 rebounds and 8 assists, Livingston's 15 points, 5 rebounds and 4 assists, Radmanovic's 13 points...
Five players from the Hornets scored in double figures and beat the defending champion Trail Blazers 110-99 at home, tying the score at 2-2!
For the Trail Blazers, Liu Xiu had 28 points, Ray Allen had 20 points, Hill had 11 points, 4 rebounds and 3 assists, Outlaw had 12 points and 6 rebounds, and Korver had 10 points, 2 rebounds and 2 assists. They performed very well.
Scoring 99 points in a single game was the best offensive performance of the team in three games.
But we couldn't prevent the Hornets' bombardment tonight!
In addition to 5 players scoring in double figures, the Hornets also had two players score 8 points, two players scored 5 points, one player scored 1 point, and all 10 players on the court scored!
The Hornets have made good adjustments to the Trail Blazers' attitude toward the Turtles... The most important thing is that they feel good. The Turtles made 2 of 4 three-pointers tonight. The whole Hornets team feels hot!
However, the Hornets won, but people were discussing things related to Liu Xiu.
This made Turtle and his friends who came to Portland again after G4 very unhappy...
What people are paying attention to is that they can see the Warden's G6 performance again!
Barkley said directly - "The Hornets have to work hard in G5. If the Hornets lose in G5, this series will be over."
Turtle scoffed at this, he was not superstitious.
But he also knows that the Battle of Tianwangshan must be fought hard. Although he has never played in the Battle of Tianwangshan, he has watched football for so many years and knows that the morale of the team that wins the Battle of Tianwangshan will be so high that it cannot be suppressed.
And although he was confident, he knew that they had no chance of suppressing the Trail Blazers' morale with their own personal abilities. Opposite them was the strongest warden in the world.
To be continued...
