Chapter 731: 731. Professional Blacksmithing

The most powerful thing about Billups is that no matter how strong his opponent is, he can demonstrate his ability to become more courageous as he fights.

In the Eastern Conference Finals with the Heat, until the end, he became the best performer in the game.

Liu Xiudan is in pain. With Billups in the late stage, the series will become more and more difficult!

After this analysis, he understood why Billups was a "parallel import prospect" and a "tramp" before entering his peak period.

Before the skills are in place, Billups' skills and basic skills cannot support his golf IQ. He may rely on his golf IQ to impress the new club to sign a contract during the trial training, but he always knows what to do during the game.

But he couldn't do it, which made his previous coaches think that he was mediocre... So after Billups got his skills in place, he suddenly soared into the sky, becoming an All-Star, All-NBA Team, and All-Defensive Team.

It was because his opponent was too strong and it was not Liu Xiu's style. After his balls ached for a while, he began to think about how to fight in the next game.

They lead with a big score of 2 to 1, and the advantage is still in their hands.

It is difficult to overwhelm the Pistons in one wave like G1. In this case, don't think about that, study the previous games and start with the details.

He felt that there was no need to think about things like competitions so complicated...



After the Trail Blazers and Pistons had a day's rest, Game 4 of the Finals will begin as scheduled at 7 pm on June 16.

At the end of the first quarter, the fans of the Palace of Auburn Hills were almost crazy with excitement tonight!

Different from the first three games, the Trail Blazers had the advantage at the beginning of the first three games. The Pistons won the last game and they also worked hard to make a comeback. The damn Warden scored 44 in a single game.

If Billups hadn't exploded, they would have been doomed.

But tonight, their Pistons led the Trail Blazers by 3 points 24-21 in the first quarter!

On the offensive end, his performance was quite satisfactory, but on the defensive end, his performance was extremely impressive. Liu Xiu was defended and only made 3 of 10 shots in the first quarter!

In the second quarter, the Pistons, whose morale had reached its peak, continued their efforts and suppressed the Trail Blazers. At the end of the first half, they successfully opened the point difference to more than 5 points, leading the Trail Blazers 49-43.

6 points!

Moreover, when Kwame Brown caught the ball and took advantage of the situation, the Pistons still had the ball!

There is a chance to open the point difference to double digits!

The Pistons players were extremely excited. Billups came to the frontcourt and gestured for a three-point shot.

At this time, Liu Xiu was in the completely opposite extreme to his opponent, shooting, he made 6 of 18 shots in the half, which was extremely tough, but he was not anxious and kept waiting for the opportunity.

Finally, the opportunity has come!

After Billups passed the ball to Yao Ming, he made a circle from the inside, ran out and received Carter's pass at a 45-degree angle on the right, and stepped out of the three-point line, but did not make the shot.

Maurice Evans with the top arc!

But as soon as the ball was passed, Billups panicked!

As soon as the ball left his hand, Liu Xiu, who had been chasing him closely, immediately jumped towards the top arc. As soon as Maurice Evans received the ball, Liu Xiu swung it away!

The kind of robbery!

Maurice Evans didn't even realize what happened, Liu Xiu had already started a fast break.

Billups finally came to his senses. His speed was pretty good and he tried to catch up, but he couldn't catch up.

Liu Xiu didn't care whether he felt comfortable or not, he did it tonight, rushing to the frontcourt and slamming the ball into the basket, cheering up the team.

45 to 49, the Trail Blazers narrowed the point difference to 4 points!

I don’t know if this dunk helped the team cheer up. Anyway, Liu Xiu got high himself.

It was the Pistons' turn to attack. Billups had just advanced to the frontcourt and was about to calm down and play a safe strategy. It would be enough to stabilize the half-time lead at more than 5 points. Don't aim too high... but before it reached the top arc, it was...

Was intercepted by Liu Xiu's brutal pressing defense!

Although Liu Xiu's defense in front of him was also rough, it was mainly steady, with a lot of steals. He relied on active defense from the wings. He also bullied the thin defenders with frontal steals. This time in the finals, he defended Billups alone.

Always be stable, not seeking merit but seeking no faults.

So Billups had a hard time playing at first. He was afraid of this kind of defensive opponent, just like he was afraid of Kidd.

But as time went by, he got used to Liu Xiu's defense. Liu Xiu's defense was solid and excellent, but compared with Kidd, who had been defending for many years, the gap was still so big... He didn't expect that this despicable warden would actually play

A sneak attack!

Billups once again chased after him. His adrenaline was stimulated and he actually rushed in front of Liu Xiu. Watching Liu Xiu grab the ball and lift it up, he took off and reached for the hat. Then, he was knocked and flew out.



Following the referee's whistle and the boos from the fans, Liu Xiu slammed the ball into the basket again.

After stealing Billups head-on, he counterattacked and dunked Billups to score 2+1!

Billups, who had a bad fall, now regrets why he had to catch up...

Liu Xiu also scored an extra penalty. Seeing that there was only 1 point difference left, Billups' divergent thinking returned to the game. He wanted to widen the point difference again, but although he made no mistakes in the last attack, he failed.

, Fortunately, the opponent's last attack was also solid. After halftime, the Pistons led the Trail Blazers by 1 point 49 to 48 entering the intermission!



Liu Xiu took 20 shots in the half and made 8 of 20 shots, including 1 of 4 three-pointers, plus 4 of 5 free throws. He scored 21 points, 4 rebounds, 4 assists and 3 steals.

Before going on a 5-0 run on his own, he took 12 shots out of 18 times.

But there is a reason why he dared to take so many shots... The Trail Blazers took 26 shots in the first quarter and 28 in the second quarter, because they had as many as 30 rebounds in the half, 12 of which were offensive.

Rebounds, the Pistons only had 19 rebounds in the half!

Randolph, Kwame Brown, McDyess, Raheem, Mourning, Outlaws, Stevenson...every frontcourt is trying their best to grab rebounds!

Two of Liu Xiu's four rebounds were offensive rebounds.

And he wasn't the only one who made a lot of iron. After returning to the locker room, he took a look and sure enough, Ray Allen, who had also been making iron, scored 13 points on 4 of 12 shots in the half, which was higher than his iron production rate.

With comparison, he felt that he played pretty well...

The most important thing is that he counterattacked and dunked twice in a row, which really ignited the morale of the whole team!

In the third quarter, Ray Allen stopped playing with Liu Xiu, leaving Liu Xiu alone. Liu Xiu only scored 3 goals in 8 shots in a single quarter, plus 2 of 2 free throws, to get the victory.

8 points, but 3 rebounds and 4 assists!

After playing hard for half the game, Ray Allen finally started shooting in the third quarter, scoring 11 points on 4-of-7 shooting.
Chapter completed!
