459. The 96th MVP is in the same boat

When Van Exel broke up with the Lakers, it was an unpleasant experience.

Not just him, but Eddie Jones.

Both of them are the left-behinds selected by the logo man with his discerning eye. They are two-man backcourt players trained by the Lakers themselves. Both of them have been selected to the All-Star bench, that is, All-Star players certified and stamped by the coaches of each team.

But unfortunately, when they were entering the prime period of their careers, they encountered a high school student who was under 18 years old when he was traded back by the Lakers.

Two years later, in order to allow Kobe, who was still under 20 years old when he finished his second year, to get more training opportunities in the future, the Lakers sent away Van Exel and Eddie Jones for almost nothing...

In addition, Kobe has been arrogant since he entered the NBA. When he was still a rookie, he told O'Neal: I will be the first player in the history of the Lakers in the future, and I will win five or six championships, more than Jordan (at that time, Jordan was 4

Championship), I have to score at least 30,000 points... Eddie Jones is okay, but Meng Hulu, Van Exel, who is also arrogant, has never had a bad relationship with Kobe. He was thrown away as a burden as soon as he was selected for the All-Star bench.

I was even more upset with Kobe.

Now at the end of his career, Crazy Fan is still Crazy Fan, and he is on fire! Hearing Liu Xiu's words, Van Exel immediately pressed forward and reached out to steal, but Liu Xiu easily turned his back and bypassed him.

Liu Xiu went straight to the basket from the middle, took the initiative to confront PJ Brown, relied on the opponent to take off, and made a steady layup!

The movements are simple and unpretentious, but they give people a very domineering feeling!

Other guards were hiding from the opponent's inside line to attack the frame, but Liu Xiu was better off. P.J. Brown had already moved into position, and Liu Xiu took the initiative to press forward to fight and put the ball into the basket.

At the same time, many old fans lamented the fate of PJ Brown.

This is a help-defensive inside man who is not half as powerful as a big center. He pairs well with Magloire. The twin towers formed by the two are also the kind that can be remembered... As a result, the Hornets management looked at

Magloire, who was no more than a fringe All-Star, sold him off for the illusory Australian White Duncan...

However, PJ Brown didn't have time to worry about his partner. His own situation was not easy to deal with. After Magloire was traded away, the Hornets found that David West, whom they selected in the middle of the first round in 2003, was very good.

Because of his talent, he focused on cultivating his talent, directly putting PJ Brown on the bench and letting David West start 5 games.

David West is really good. In the first 25 games, he averaged 4.8 points and 4.6 rebounds in 13 minutes per game. After becoming a starter, he averaged 12+8, 13+5, and 8+12 in 5 games.

, 9+6, 10+10 data, average playing time is 26 minutes per game.

However, after 5 games, David West suffered a season-ending injury...PJ Brown, who was 35 years old, once again became the team's best insider, which made him collapse.

After Liu Xiuqiang defeated P.J. Brown and scored the first attack, Madman Fan exploded and launched a suicide attack. It was the kind of suicide attack that succeeded but failed.

At the end of the game, Madman Fan made 8 of 25 shots, including 0 of 6 three-pointers, and 4 of 4 free throws. He scored 20 points, 5 rebounds, and 6 assists.

Payton was really speechless, the other party was really good! It looked like he was beaten again...Eh? Why did you say it again?

JR Smith, a rookie, was also driven crazy by Madman Fan. He threw 20 times and made 7 of 20 shots, including 1 of 6 three-pointers, plus 2 of 2 free throws. He scored 17 points, 1 rebound and 1 assist.

Madman Fan played 37 minutes, and JR Smith played 35 minutes. The playing time of the two was partly staggered. Byron Scott ensured that at least one of the two was on the court. Under the leadership of the two, the Hornets were all

Scored 89 points.

For the Trail Blazers, Liu Xiu played 31 minutes and made 14 of 20 shots, including 4 of 6 three-pointers, plus 11 of 12 free throws. In the three quarters, he scored 43 points, 9 rebounds, 2 assists, 1 steal and 2 blocks, leading the team in the third quarter.

Leading the Hornets 82-58 at the end, they clocked out in the third quarter.

It was so easy to score. Byron Scott arranged for Van Exel or JR Smith to guard him throughout the whole process. It was really abusing high school students...

In the end, Liu Xiu scored 43 points in three quarters, Payton had 10 points and 10 assists, the Flying Squirrel had 17 points and 7 assists, and Raheem had 13 points and 11 rebounds... The Trail Blazers defeated the Hornets 106-89 and won the first game of back-to-back games!

…

After defeating the Hornets, the Trail Blazers' record improved to 53 wins and 19 losses, officially entering the 10-game countdown to the regular season.

The food abuser is back online again - this is how the mainstream media reported Liu Xiu's 12th 40+ score in a single game this season.

This time, Liu Xiu himself felt that there was nothing wrong with this reporting method.

What's the matter? After fighting so many tough battles, he finally met the last team in the Western Conference with 15 wins and 55 losses. Why don't he still be allowed to enjoy it?

With this 43 points in a single game, Liu Xiu's total points this season reached 2,016. He played 65 times in total, averaging 31 points per game, with 1 point to spare!

Iverson was so frightened that he beat the Bobcats with 48 points in a single game in front of Jordan that night.

Before this 48-point game, Iverson averaged 31.8 points per game, and he returned to averaging 32 points per game.

Ten thousand alpacas ran through Iverson's heart - other scorers' scoring averages dropped after the All-Star Weekend, including him, but this second-year guy actually bucked the trend and went up!

Nowitzki's side has also soared from averaging a little over 23 points per game to averaging 25+ points per game. It is probably no problem to break through the 26 points per game, but they have changed the coach. After the infinite singles strategy is fully implemented,

, personal abilities are fully released.

Moreover, increasing the average by 23 points per game is two different things from increasing the average by 30+ points per game!

The scores of other 25+ scorers per game are all on the downward trend!

Although he still maintains a 1-point scoring lead per game, Iverson feels that it is not so stable.

This guy can hit 70+ points with just one disagreement!

Nash, Iverson, and Kobe are out for the season. They are the two best guards in the league today. Now thinking about Liu Xiu, a second-year player, makes me feel numb.

Once upon a time, they had the same idea - the future point guards were in terrible shape.

Now, they feel that the point guards are so miserable!

Butcher is a little jealous this time. The only team in the Southwest Division that can run wild inside is unexpectedly injured by elbow soreness!

But there must be a reason for taking turns.

On the one hand, it has been agreed long ago that in order to avoid injuries, some players will have to rest for at least one back-to-back game in the last month to cope with this brutal schedule.

Also, the opponent, the Kings, is different from other teams.

It's certainly not comparable to a 'see you next season' farewell game with the Hornets.

In terms of importance, it is even more important than opponents such as the Sonics, Spurs, and Suns.

At present, the Kings have played 73 games, with 45 wins and 28 losses, which is the same record as the Nuggets. The two teams have played 2 wins and 2 losses, which is a tie.

In other words, in the end, whether the Trail Blazers are second in the Western Conference or third in the Western Conference, they are likely to encounter the Kings.

It would be better to play the Nuggets. If the Sonics are eliminated, it would definitely be the perfect first-round matchup. But if you are less lucky, you will have to play the Kings.

Although the Kings were ruined by their management's own dirty tricks, this team still has many stars and rich playoff experience, and is not an opponent that can be underestimated.

…

Less than 24 hours after the game between the Trail Blazers and the Hornets ended, at 7:40 on April 3, Kings players entered the Rose Garden Arena, and the Trail Blazers' back-to-back home games against the Kings began immediately.

Immediately after the Trail Blazers players came on the stage, when Liu Xiu came on the scene, the already noisy atmosphere suddenly became frenzied.

The Kings came to Portland yesterday, and all the main players came to watch the game last night.

Just like the Trail Blazers regard the Kings as their number one imaginary opponent in the first round, the Kings do the same, and the Kings also want to win, at least they themselves think they are a championship contender.

However, the Kings players, who had already felt the oppressive atmosphere in this arena last night, experienced it firsthand tonight that their pressure was even greater than that of the Hornets... like Van Exel and JR Smith were completely

Not affected, they are really suitable for playing games in high-pressure environments. Their psychological quality is unparalleled. If any one of them is strong enough, the team they lead can offset the pressure brought by the opponent's devilish home court to the maximum extent.

On Liu Xiu's side, after entering the stadium, a system prompt came!

“Another year of regular season comes to an end, and the host is about to usher in the craziest schedule of the season, the Rose in Bloom series of missions: 60-win glory trigger.

Goal: Win at least 7 of the last 10 games of the regular season.

Reward: Advanced random attribute +1. (If the random attribute does not reach the top level, it will be converted into 3 ordinary attribute cards. If the random attribute reaches the super top level, it will be converted into a high-level attribute card.)"

Advanced attribute card!

Eh? Wait! Liu Xiu saw a prompt that he had never seen before, and he had an ominous premonition.

The system immediately gave the answer: "After the host's physical attributes reach the top level (95), 3 advanced attribute cards will be consumed to continue improving."

'Profiteer!'

Liu Xiu cursed in his heart and then took a deep breath to adjust his emotions. He quickly calmed down and felt that it was nothing. When it came time to get 3 advanced attribute cards to improve, it meant that his physical fitness had reached at least a 95 rating. He continued to improve.

The difference is not that big. At that level, it is not as important as improvements in technology, tactics and other aspects in the game.

That's all I can think of...

He is not the kind of person who likes to get entangled, so he will try to find ways to solve problems. If he can't solve them, he will think about the best.

However, regardless of whether he has this mission or not, the goal Liu Xiu has set for himself now is 60 wins!

You have already reached this point, with 53 wins and 19 losses. How could you not strive for 60 wins?

But it’s really difficult! The schedule is too tight, and there are many strong opponents.

The next nine opponents include the Pacers, Suns, Mavericks, Timberwolves, Nuggets, and Rockets, six playoff-level teams. The Jazz are also a headache, as are the Clippers and Lakers.

You can play whatever you want against the Los Angeles team, but it’s still an away game!

And the opponent in front of me is not easy to deal with either!

You can tell by looking at the mission rewards. This reward is worth at least 200,000 healing points, and you have to be extremely lucky to draw the same attribute three times in a row to synthesize the rewards. You know that the system also determines that the mission is extremely difficult.

60 wins!

A record that 90% of players will never touch in their lifetime can indeed be called ‘glory’.

This is something that he already knew. Liu Xiu had already adjusted the pressure, but when the task came, the pressure came out again...

Just when Liu Xiu was re-adjusting his mind to relieve stress, the system prompt came!

"The host is about to start the craziest end-of-season schedule for all teams in the league. Because the host is in the rookie contract period, considering that the host's comprehensive strength has not reached the peak level (90), the pressure of leading the team is too high, and the newcomer welfare: challenge mode is started...
Chapter completed!
