After all, he majored in psychology, and Duncan was very good at judging micro-expressions. He immediately understood what he was doing wrong, and quickly bent his knees and lowered his gaze to the same height as Liu Xiu.

Liu Xiu's mouth twitched, and a series of # signs appeared on his forehead...

Before Duncan could speak, Liu Xiu's changing expression caused a question mark to pop up on his forehead: Why does this rookie seem to be even more unhappy?

"Do you believe that I jumped up and hit you on the knee?" Liu Xiu's expression was very fierce!

Duncan was shocked and hit his knee? How vicious!

However, Duncan's mind flashed back to Liu Xiuzhen's squinting expression when she was angry in the "Rose Garden Prison Riot Incident", Liu Xiu's fierceness that made the nightclub girl climax when he fought, and his contemptuous smile after the fight...

A master's degree in psychology confirmed that this rookie was not really angry.

So, Duncan reached out and touched Liu Xiu's head...

"You! Despicable!"

Liu Xiu was so frightened that her native language came out! She turned around and ran away.

He was just joking, but this paralyzed guy actually released weapons of mass destruction!

Duncan looked at Liu Xiu who was running for his life and was confused.

He just wanted to say hello to his juniors!

…

At 8 o'clock in the evening, the game between the Trail Blazers and the Spurs started.

The Trail Blazers were not in good shape tonight and their physical condition was still bad, but they did not give up and went all out... What if the Spurs were in bad shape?

Opportunities are reserved for those who are prepared. Even if the probability of appearing is slim, you have to work hard to seize the opportunity when it comes...

The time has reached 9:58, the first three quarters have been played, and the fourth quarter has just begun, but the Trail Blazers have not sent out their core players.

Liu Xiu and Randolph were sitting safely on the bench. Their star player, Roaring Tianzun, had already left the court.

"Butcher, is Duncan mute?"

"I guess so. I've never heard him speak."

"That should be it. I asked him to say hello before the game started, but he didn't say anything."

Liu Xiu and Randolph strongly choreographed Duncan.

What's wrong? If you're going to lose, why don't you say something bad behind your back?

If you want to be upset, you have to seize the opportunity...it also depends on who the opponent is.

Unlike other teams, the Spurs have only a handful of poor games in a season as long as Duncan plays.

Playing next to Duncan, even if you are a player at the end of the bench, you will feel very confident.

Confidence is very important, whether it is because of yourself or others, only with confidence can you better utilize your own strength.

As expected, the Trail Blazers, who were playing their third game in four days and their second back-to-back away game, were beaten by the Spurs.

The score was 14-21 in the first quarter and 23-20 in the second quarter. It looked like there was still a chance to struggle in the first half.

Then, 15-30 in the third quarter... After three quarters, the Trail Blazers trailed the Spurs by 19 points, 52-71.

By the way, the Blazers' star player is not on the court now.

Before the end of the third quarter, Tianzun roared angrily because he was blocked by Duncan for a dunk. He did not commit a defensive foul but was given a technical foul in vain, causing the point difference to be widened to 16 points.

After a while, when the score difference was stretched to 20 points, Tianzun cut in to receive Liu Xiu's pass and dunked Duncan, regaining face, and couldn't help but scream to the sky again... he was called for a second technical foul.

Being kicked out...

As a result, the Trail Blazers entered the final quarter with a 19-point difference.

Maurice Cheeks replaced the lineup of Jeff McGinnis, Matt Carroll, Wesley Person, Travis Outlaw, and Spandinha and announced his surrender.

.

People are saying that O'Neal gave the meat shield center a meal. In this game, Liu Xiu felt that Duncan also gave the inside players a meal.

The difference is that Duncan rewards his teammates with food.

On O'Neal's side, due to the limited offensive range, he does not bring much help to his power forward teammates. There are not many 3D power forwards these days.

But Duncan is different. Duncan's attack range is wider. Malik Rose, a power forward who is not outstanding in all aspects, can perform well next to Duncan. He also received a starting salary of US$4.92 million after winning the championship last season.

A six-year, full-income middle-income contract worth a total of US$37 million.

During the game, Liu Xiu already felt that playing against the Spurs was torturous, and when watching the game... it was even more torturous!

After complaining about Duncan behind his back with Randolph, Liu Xiuzhen didn't even watch the game on the court.

He took a look at the bankrupt version of Duncan's talent that he copied today.

"The Great Magician:

Game status.

Copy objects:

Teammate: Zach Randolph…

Opponent: Tim Duncan, Characteristic Transformation Talent: Stone Buddha (Incomplete), Bonus effects: 1. Absolute Stability: The host can always maintain a stable performance in the game; 2. Absolute Calmness: The host can always remain calm in the game

.”

Absolutely calm...Liu Xiu thought of Duncan, who had been yelled twice by Tianzun, but his expression remained expressionless...

Finally, at 10:21 pm, the final whistle sounded.

The Trail Blazers lost 74-90 on the road, ending their three-game winning streak, and their record became 11 wins and 6 losses.

Liu Xiu received a system prompt at the end of the game.

What a strange 250 healing value reward...the second defeat in my career.

If you lose the game and play for more than 15 minutes, you will receive a fixed 50% of the basic reward, which is 250 healing points.

Liu Xiu played 19 minutes tonight and made 4 of 10 shots, including 1 of 4 three-pointers, plus 2 of 2 free throws. He scored 11 points, 6 rebounds, 2 assists and 2 steals.

Looking at the paralyzed face on the big screen who played 31 minutes tonight and scored 20 points, 9 rebounds, 4 assists, 1 steal and 4 blocks, Liu Xiu set a small goal, 'This guy must change his expression next time we play!'

…

…

The morning after playing the Spurs, the Trail Blazers returned to Portland.

4 consecutive guest games, 3 wins and 1 loss, a pretty good record. There were more fans picking up the plane this time than last time.

However, most people did not pick up the team because of this record. The Trail Blazers have made the playoffs in all the past 21 seasons. Although they have not won the championship, they have had many glorious moments.

It’s for Liu Xiu!

52 points in a single game!

In Memphis, he was booed by the fans; in Houston and San Antonio, the fans were just curious about this rookie of the Trail Blazers.

But in Portland, the impact is completely different!

…

"Warden, there are many old fans who have said that they will no longer watch the Trail Blazers' games and want to keep their memory of the Trail Blazers as the last time they reached the Finals. What do you think of this situation?"

It has been a few days since Liu Xiu scored 52 points. A lot can happen in a few days.

For example, there have been countless fan battles in Portland.

For example, basketball enthusiasts compete face-to-face in street courts and professional basketball stadiums.

It’s hard to say how the fists are used, but when it comes to spraying, the prisoners, who had been at a disadvantage before, now have the absolute upper hand!

The purge fans couldn't argue anymore, so they just said, "I will never watch the Trail Blazers again, this is no longer the Trail Blazers back then."

There were so many people who agreed, it triggered a wave of public opinion in Portland. At first, even the Trail Blazers management was panicked.

Although the boss doesn't care about profit and loss, the ticket sales are going well!

You can subsidize money every year, but at least the tickets must be sold well to make the boss look good.

In case those old fans stop coming to watch the game, ticket sales will be affected... But the development of the matter surprised the Trail Blazers management...

The Trail Blazers management is worried about this, and the local media is naturally hyping it up.

There are rumors in Portland and even Oregon that the Trail Blazers' ticket sales are going to collapse and the ball market is going to collapse...

Oregon State TV asked for an interview as soon as the Trail Blazers returned to Portland.

After Liu Xiu communicated with the press officer, at three o'clock in the afternoon, he accepted an exclusive interview with Oregon TV at the Rose Garden Arena.

The reporter's first question was very pointed.

Liu Xiu knew the current public opinion situation regarding his views and treatment of this issue. If he did not answer carefully, he would definitely trigger a public opinion storm again.

Liu Xiu thought carefully and replied: "Old fans, how old are you?"

"???"
