521. A new beginning

The NBA’s darkest hour is coming! The warden’s evil hand hangs over the basketball world!

This is the evaluation given by North American mainstream media to the Trail Blazers' championship.

Liu Xiu averaged 30 points, 10 rebounds and 10.2 assists per game in the finals. In the championship game, he single-handedly reversed the situation with 31 seconds left. In these 31 seconds plus overtime, he scored 11 points on 4-of-6 shooting at the critical moment.

Led the team to reverse the Nets, won the championship with a big score of 4 to 1, and won the FMVP.

"I'm sorry that we have finished our home games this season," Liu Xiu boasted before the game. With 11 points at the critical moment, he turned his bragging into real awesomeness!

With 31 seconds left, when Tracy McGrady made the crucial mid-range shot, some media were ready to post news ridiculing Liu Xiu online, but those words were in vain!

However, in the North American sports world, Liu Xiu is definitely the villain of the NBA.

It's just that although they both have a bad reputation, the Trail Blazers are very different from the Bad Boys and the Iron Heels Pioneers.

The media in North America only identified the "big villain" and "prison team" and reported news about the Trail Blazers, without suppressing their popularity.

The Pistons have popular stars like Assassin, and the Spurs also have super-popular superstars like Duncan. However, the popularity of the Pistons during the Bad Boys era and the Spurs during the Iron Heel era were both very low.

The Trail Blazers are different. In the 'New Prison Era', their popularity is not low. The 'big villain' character and team design have a considerable audience when the record is good, especially in the United States.

A country where a 'maverick culture' prevails.

Winning the championship this year, they attracted a wave of fans with their outstanding performance that can even be described as crazy.

Even the media who have been attacking them before have not actually denied that they have a bright future, but before the start of this year's playoffs, they will meet the Mavericks in the second round, and the Trail Blazers of the Spurs or Suns in the Western Conference Finals.

Not many media and experts really think they have a chance to win.

However, in the second round, they found the technical flaws of the Silver Horn King, the Western Conference Finals were long-term, and the Finals Warden averaged a triple-double to win the championship... This year's regular season, the Suns opened a new chapter in the season.

In the postgame, the Trail Blazers truly let fans understand that a new era is finally here!

It doesn't matter what the media said before. Now, when the major media mention Liu Xiu, they just keep blowing it!

But when it comes to praise, the domestic media is still more powerful in touting the Rockets, the eighth team in the Western Conference that has entered the playoffs, as a championship contender.

Although the playoff teams actually really mean 'teams competing for the championship', and there are precedents for the eighth team in the conference to reach the finals, but the Knicks, who were eighth in the Eastern Conference that year, and first place in the Eastern Conference

The Heat were only 6 games behind, and the difference between eighth in the Western Conference and first in the Western Conference that year was 12 games. In other words, the strength of the playoff teams in the Eastern Conference that year was about the same.

It's not as amazing as Mutombo's black eight Payton in 1994.

However, this year's top eight in the Western Conference, with 20 games separating first and eighth, the Rockets were promoted as championship contenders. When Liu Xiu was catching up on the domestic news after the first round, he discovered the direction of public opinion in domestic forums.

You actually believed the lies of the media!

Also, Yao Ming's statistics against the Suns were incredible, but he was swept away. The public opinion in the United States was that Yao Ming was delayed by the Rockets, but the domestic media acted as if they had received money from the Rockets. The direction of the report was that the Rockets had Yao Ming.

There will be a bright future. A lot of well-known Internet figures and basketball experts will follow this way to guide public opinion, and countless fans will believe it.

However, Liu Xiu felt incredible at first, but after thinking about it later, he felt that it was normal for the Chinese people's cognition to be distorted. Wasn't he also distorted at the beginning? But as the country becomes stronger and stronger, the Chinese people are becoming more and more confident.

, if you can stop placing your confidence in so-called celebrities or certain athletes, and look at these things with simple eyes, you will find the ugly faces of those little devils.

This just takes time.

Now that he has won the championship, the praise from some domestic media has given him the illusion that he will surpass Jordan with one championship.

This is not the intensity of the adulation I felt from watching domestic news, but the intensity of the praise he felt when he was interviewed by some domestic media on the night he won the championship.

Liu Xiu felt terrible at first. Although it would bring high popularity and many fans, it would also inevitably lead to bad luck.

But think about it, let the domestic media brag like this. If it can promote the basketball atmosphere in the country and let more adults and children go to the basketball court to like basketball and keep fit, it will definitely be a good thing. Think about what will happen in the future.

The children, led astray by the sissies in South Korea, are becoming more and more effeminate, and their aesthetics are becoming more and more weird. Many parents don't know how they have children.

In fact, Liu Xiu didn't know how much influence he had in the country. How did it compare with Yao Ming in the original time and space? It should be higher, not lower, right? Even at that time, Yao Ming represented "unique".

It would be a lie to say that he doesn’t care about this kind of thing. He has already been in this industry and has become the person who stands at the top this year. His ambitions continue to expand, and his new goal is to be famous in sports history!

When Liu Xiu won the championship, he felt excited and touched, as well as the friendship between his teammates that was engraved in his heart. These teammates who won the championship together may never be forgotten in his life.

But winning the championship brings endless hustle and bustle.

There were a lot of interviews on the night of the championship, and the shooting of the promotional video the next morning. After returning to Portland in the afternoon, there were local interviews in Portland and the team’s business activities. After returning home and resting for a night, the next morning was

In the afternoon, there was a business activity for the team to thank the fans and host a fan lottery. Liu Xiu took Qing'er with him. The prizes actually included giant Lego, and Qing'er won the prize.

On the 25th, there will be the championship parade, on the 26th we will attend the event held by the city hall, on the 27th we will take Anne Hathaway to attend the Flower Festival organized by Paul Allen, and in the evening we will attend the party organized by Paul Allen...

In the entire team, Liu Xiu is the busiest.

But, this person, once he is happy, he never feels tired no matter how busy he is!

Also, from the team’s collective interview on the evening of the 23rd, the day after winning the championship, the boss was present throughout the team’s commercial activities. He was also present at every subsequent team activity!

It's not tiring to see a first-year boss like Paul Allen, and Liu Xiu doesn't feel tired at all. Anyway, there is a simulated training space every day to repair functions.

However, there was one thing Liu Xiu was confused about. Why didn't he stop being busy as soon as the Boss Finals was over? He seemed to be extra leisurely.





At 7 o'clock in the morning on June 28, Liu Xiu opened his eyes on time and slept as well as ever.

But after opening his eyes this time, he closed them again, rubbed his head against the pillow, yawned, closed his eyes, and prepared to sleep for a rare sleep.

He doesn't want to get up at all, and he doesn't have to get up as early as he did a few days ago, because he is finally on holiday!

Last night he and Anne Hathaway went to a party hosted by Paul Allen. At the end of the party, Paul Allen said happy holidays to him, declaring that his 2004-2005 season was officially over!

Anne Hathaway followed her usual habit of coming up from the kitchen at a little after 7 o'clock to help Liu Xiu prepare the clothes for today. She was not surprised to see Liu Xiu still lying on the bed. Liu Xiu had complained a few days ago.

Those activities are more tiring than game days, so you must take a nap after the busy work is over.

Anne Hathaway prepared the clothes and put them on the hangers. Then she came to the bedside, lowered her head, and prepared to kiss Liu Xiu secretly. When she leaned down, she saw Liu Xiu pouting!

She couldn't help but feel funny, her big eyes rolled, and the bad water was coming. While kissing Liu Xiu, she reached into the quilt, pulled at it for a while, then quickly stopped her hand, and left the bedroom as if running away, leaving behind the sound of "Peng"

The sound of the door closing made Liu Xiu confused...

Feeling suffocated, Liu Xiu got up and went to the toilet and took a shower.

After getting up, Liu Xiu opened the system space instead of going back to sleep.

The mission of 'Lord of the Era is far ahead' was completed. He won 5 games. He received all the rewards except the 'designated technical talent limit breakthrough card' which swept the championship, 10,000 healing points, 1 designated attribute point, and

There is a natural tendency to be a 'controller'.

1 designated ordinary attribute point. On the night he obtained it, Liu Xiu used it on his bounce without hesitation, raising his bounce from 89 to 90, raising it to the top level.

The newly acquired talent tendency is his 4th talent tendency... Now it is the 3rd one. 'Maimang' has been activated and has become what people think of as 'prison for a long time', which is guaranteed at critical moments!

“Controller (Talent Tendency): Bonus effects related to being the playmaker of the team.

Note: There is no need to activate the talent when playing against Jason Kidd to trigger the bonus effect."

Liu Xiu doesn't care about the new talent tendency now. Unless the ability evaluation can be raised to 90 at the beginning of next season and the next talent slot is opened, one more talent tendency will not be of much use.

The mission of "Rose in Bloom" was also completed. G5 won the championship and one reward was a high-level designated attribute point. He also increased the speed on the night of the 22nd, increasing the speed from 93 to 94.

"Name: Liu Xiu, English name: Jess.

Age: 23 years old (February 17, 1982)

Net height: 188 cm, wingspan 203 cm, weight: 97.9 kg.

Team: Portland Trail Blazers.

Ability rating: 87.

Athletic ability: Speed ​​94 (81 explosive acceleration), 93 strength (79 explosive power), 90 jumping (77 bullet speed), 94 flexibility, 92 physical strength..."

Looking at the speed of 94 on the ability evaluation interface on the home page, Liu Xiu opened the talent section of the Great Magician and found the bonus of Little Flying Squirrel's 'Flying Squirrel', counterattack speed +3, and Richard Jefferson's 'Flankers'

The counterattack speed without the ball is +3. Next time we play against the Nets, the counterattack speed can be off the charts! That is the real speed!
