350. The luckiest mission

"The Lord of the Age: General.

He is recognized as a low-key leader and the perfect booster for a strong team.

Challenge: Kirk Hinrich.

Goal 1: The number of pick-and-roll attacks initiated by the host must be higher than that of Kirk Hinrich.

Goal 2: The host initiates a pick-and-roll attack to help the team score points, which must be higher than Kirk Hinrich.

Goal 3: Win the game.

Reward: General (BUFF)."

When Liu Xiu saw this mission, his expression was strange...

"The Archmage: State of the Game."

Copy object:

Teammate: Damon Stoudemire…

Opponent: Kirk Hinrich, matching degree 55%, because the host has the nickname: General, matching degree bonus is 15%, characteristic transformation talent: General, bonus effect: when the host uses the pick-and-roll to launch an attack, the speed is +2.

After dribbling after the pick-and-roll, the mid-to-long-range shooting ability is +2, and teammates who receive the ball after the host pick-and-roll have a 20% chance of entering a hot state."

Liu Xiu chose to launch his attack through the pick-and-roll tonight. One reason is that Eddie Curry's protection of the frame is actually a trap when viewed as bluffing, and the other reason is that he copied this talent.

"...

Target 1...(Number of pick-and-roll offenses initiated, host: 6 times, Kirk Hinrich: 1 time.)

Goal 2...(Use to initiate pick-and-roll offense to help the team score, host: 7 points, Kirk Hinrich: 2 points.)

…”

Originally, Liu Xiu wanted to try the talents of Deng Yingqiao or substitute Qiao, but to be on the safe side, he chose to copy Hinrich. Unexpectedly, he ran into a new task!

Liu Xiu felt that he was really lucky! Then he couldn't be careless and took the time to read the player detection report of the opposing center again.

"Tyson Chandler, 22 years old, 216 cm, 107 kg, C, ability evaluation 72, offense -, defense 82, rebounds 89..."

Chandler's growth period is extremely long. It takes 8 years to train a talented center to reach his peak. Do you love him?

Liu Xiu's impression is that in 2006, after five years of training, the Bulls couldn't bear it and sold him to the Hornets.

In 2009, the Hornets couldn't bear it and sold him to the Bobcats in exchange for Okafor.

But coincidentally, in the 2009-10 season, the 27-year-old Chandler finally entered his peak period and played his best defensive performance. He was selected to the All-Defensive Team for three consecutive years from the 10-11 season to the 12-13 season and won the championship.

Excellent defensive player, helped the Mavericks win the championship.

Of course Chandler is not bad now. The defensive end is much better than the paper tiger Eddie Curry who just looked at the bluff and just passed the defense this year in order to get a big contract. It's just that he still needs a long time.

time to grow and progress.

Chandler's presence on the court is bound to greatly improve the Bulls' ability to protect the rim, thereby improving the defensive role of other Bulls players. An excellent level of defense in team defensive collaboration will not be as slow as Eddie Curry's.

Can help teammates.

After halftime, Liu Xiu received a pass from Lynch Hunter and moved it to the three-point line. Finally, he faced Hinrich!

Facing the ‘D-Wade Killer’, Liu Xiu decisively waved to the inside.

Kwame Brown ran out to block Hinrich, and the block was very solid. Liu Xiu used the screen, and Chandler switched to defend, covering Liu Xiu's outside shooting space.

Liu Xiu chose to break through, Chandler quickly retreated, Liu Xiu made an emergency stop in the middle distance, and easily got rid of Chandler, who was still a tough defender.

But this was expected by the Bulls' defense. Nocioni, Argentina's golden generation, made up for it in time. He seized the opportunity very well and jumped in when Liu Xiu made an emergency stop, forcing Liu Xiu to stop the ball.

Although Chandler is rough, he is talented and has good reflexes. He immediately moved sideways to block Kwame Brown who cut from the left after being opened. Hinrich was hiding behind his teammates in the frontcourt and could fill in for the vacated Outlaw at any time.

Beside me...

But after Liu Xiu was blocked by Nocioni, he did not pass the ball to the lawless maniacs, but passed it to Rahim who ran to the left side of the free throw line!

Rahim caught the ball and turned around, Osela Hanington failed to follow, Ben Gordon made up for it, but Rahim raised the ball and ignored Ben Gordon, and made a mid-range shot after catching the ball!

18 to 17, the Trail Blazers once again led by 1 point.

Hinrich looked at Liu Xiu's pick-and-roll and felt that he was really embarrassed by the nickname "General"! Can this thing be called a pick-and-roll? In addition to using the screen to create mismatches, what else can it do? Isn't it just relying on having Rahim as a teammate...

Vaco, this is really awesome.

Suppressing his feelings of envy, jealousy and hatred, Hinrich didn't want to be made to lose his cool by Liu Xiu like last season.

After advancing to the frontcourt, Hinrich continued to play pick-and-roll with Chandler to initiate the offense.

The Trail Blazers couldn't let go of Hinrich's post-break shooting or breakthrough, and they didn't dare to let go of Chandler's cut-in. Taking advantage of the attraction of the two-man pick-and-roll, Ben Gordon got rid of Liu Xiu's hand-to-hand defense by bypassing the pile.

, Hinrich's pass came in time.

As soon as the idea of ​​finally getting rid of Liu Xiu's hand-to-hand combat came up, Ben Gordon directly spat out the word starting with 'F'. It was too early to be happy! The outlaws changed defense in time and blocked Ben Gordon's shooting space.

!

The precocious Ben Gordon suppressed the urge to continue swearing, and immediately chose to break through after reacting. Unfortunately, his physical fitness is good, and the outlaw is better. Ben Gordon's offensive choices in a hurry are okay, but his strength is not enough.

, was disturbed!

Liu Xiu protected the defensive rebound! Counterattack... Chandler blocked Liu Xiu's path. He did not make any unnecessary moves, just to change Liu Xiu's direction. Hinrich then followed up, and the other three quickly retreated.

Cooperation is tacit.

Liu Xiu was not in a hurry, fell into a positional battle, and launched a pick-and-roll attack. This attack ended with Liu Xiu receiving a pass from the wing and facing Nocioni and missing a shot.

The Trail Blazers' defense is very good and they can respond quickly. The Bulls' defense is even better, but the Trail Blazers' offense is stronger. After the two teams became familiar with each other's offensive routines, the situation became anxious and they played well.

One time, the players on the field were also very excited...not all of them were excited, Hinrich was getting irritable while playing.

His teammates don't have that concept, but as a leader, Hinrich knows that they can't be anxious at this time, they have to take advantage!

Even if they were bitten by the opponent in the opening stage, now the rotation lineups of both sides are still playing anxiously. How should the Bulls play next?

Even if he is Hinrich, he is only a second-year player. The pressure is increasing and he has made wrong choices.

At 11 minutes and 21 seconds of the first quarter, Hinrich became impatient and passed a white chocolate pass, risking the ball from the gap to the baseline, but the moving Osella Hanington saw the ball coming from behind.

When the ball flew in front of my face, I didn’t touch the ball with my face!

Out of bounds! Trail Blazers have the ball!

Osela Hanington was also helpless. Between him and Hinrich, Chandler and Raheem were moving, and he couldn't even see where Hinrich was in his field of vision just now.

It rained all night, the Bulls made a mistake, and the Trail Blazers scored!

After Liu Xiu and Kwame Brown launched a pick-and-roll attack, the ball came to Rahim who had pulled up to the high post. Rahim supported him from the high post. Liu Xiu reversed and used the screen to cut back to the basket to catch Rahim's high post for a layup.

Hit!

28 to 24, the Trail Blazers lead by 4 points!

When the Bulls attack, he is impatient and annoyed, and always makes wrong choices. Faced with Lynch Hunter's defense, Hinrich takes advantage of his height advantage and shoots directly, but Lynch Hunter interferes in place, and Hinrich

An odd three-pointer!

Rahim protected the defensive rebound and passed it to Liu Xiu, who counterattacked!

The Bulls were the first to react and retreat. Chandler was moving to the outside to prepare for the pick-and-roll. When he saw Hinrich grabbing the ball and taking off, Chandler showed his defensive talent at this moment. The probability of grabbing an offensive rebound was slim. Hinrich

Regardless of whether he makes an unexpected advance or not, he has to guard against the opponent's counterattack, so Chandler retreats immediately.

When Liu Xiu used the bonus of 'Flying Squirrel' to quickly counterattack and rush to the opponent's three-point line, only Chandler was in front of him.

Chandler chose to protect the frame instead of extending out. Liu Xiu did not choose to shoot from the outside. He drove toward the basket and grabbed the ball when he reached the top of the dotted semicircle inside the free throw line... Chandler was guarding Liu.

Showing off the buckle, his legs tightened and exerted force. When he saw Liu Xiu grabbing the ball and using his left foot to jump up, Chandler rushed forward with all his strength... Liu Xiu stepped forward to the right, avoiding Chandler, with his right foot

After landing, he immediately used his strength to jump back toward the middle. In the third step, he took off from the basket and hit a layup behind Chandler!

As Ben Gordon missed a hasty three-pointer, at the end of the first quarter, the Trail Blazers led the Bulls by 6 points, 30-24!

…

When Shark went on offense during the rampage stage, the Bulls didn't have an advantage; when they played defense during the first lineup rotation stage, the Bulls didn't have an advantage either.

In terms of key goals, the Bulls did not play as well as the opponent. Kwame Brown's 2+1 at the end of the first half, Liu Xiu's 4 points at the end of the first quarter, the Bulls' three key goals were all missed.

Liu Xiu and Kwame Brown scored a total of 7 points at the critical moment, while the Trail Blazers' lead in the first quarter was only 6 points, which means that in terms of regular scoring, the Trail Blazers trailed the Bulls by 1 point 23 to 24. This incident

Instead of bringing any psychological comfort to the Bulls players, this incident was a psychological blow - the other team's star was stronger than ours!

There were also mistakes in pre-game preparation. They made detailed defensive preparations based on the Trail Blazers' style of play when Liu Xiu was playing shooting guard, trying to gain an advantage in the opening stage... The reference is to the Timberwolves who defeated the Trail Blazers the day before yesterday.

defense.

However, the Bulls' defense is lagging behind the Timberwolves, and Liu Xiu's style of play is not static either.

Liu Xiu decisively switched back to the point guard style of play, shooting when he had the chance, passing when he needed to, supporting his teammates, and taking shots... which disrupted the Bulls' defensive plan.

Ever since, after the start of the second quarter, facing the offensive combination of Liu Xiu, Flying Squirrel, Joan Barry, Outlaws, and Randolph, the Bulls, who still led 24 to 23 in regular scoring in the first quarter, were in multiple situations.

It collapsed under the blow!

The youth army is a double-edged sword. When the morale is high, no one is afraid and no one dares to win.

But when their mentality explodes and the situation is unfavorable, they have the drive and the idea to take responsibility, but their lack of experience and lack of strength mean that their responses to such situations are often not so correct, just like now, Ben Gordon
Chapter completed!
