73. Hands, so hot! (Part 5(1/2)

During the timeout, Liu Xiu walked back to the bench amid cheers, and his teammates came up to high-five him in celebration.

The Kings had a fierce start. Seeing that the Trail Blazers could no longer hold on any longer, Liu Xiu stepped forward!

No one thought of it at all, let alone the Kings, even the Trail Blazers themselves didn't think of it!

The fans went from booing all over the place to cheering in just 3 minutes!

"I am the warden:

Goal: Perform a performance that makes the fans cheer. (Completed)

Congratulations to the host for getting the reward: 1 lottery draw."

Mission accomplished!

Fixed-point sniping, this talent has made great achievements!

Is this talent very powerful?

It's awesome, but I can't say 'very'.

As long as the opponent pretends Liu Xiu has the ability to shoot and defend normally, it will be useless to him.

When Liu Xiu first saw this talent, his first reaction was - tasteless.

He can catch and shoot at a fixed point in a wide gap. He just enters a hot state. His mid-range shooting is of a good level and his three-point shooting is acceptable. After confrontation and physical exertion, he can only "shoot" at the NBA level.

It takes two seconds to adjust the bonus to increase the ability. In such a long time, the opponent's insider can save from the three-second zone!

But! He now realizes that he overestimated himself. A team like the Kings that plays zone defense must selectively release players.

He is the one who was let out!

Only when he receives the ball will Bibby move to the right side of the three-second zone to prevent him from directly confronting the inside. Moreover, he only receives the ball from outside the three-second zone and will never save it. He is always ready to defend others.

Liu Xiu scored 10 points to help the team withstand the strong pressure of the Kings. Celebration is a must to boost morale.

After a simple celebration, Maurice Cheeks began to make adjustments.

Of course Liu Xiu must continue to send them!

What a surprise!

Maurice Cheeks patted Liu Xiu on the back and said: "Jace, keep squatting at that spot and shoot if you feel you can..."



Rasheed Wallace was replaced, and the Trail Blazers replaced the combination of Flying Squirrel, Liu Xiu, Travis Outlaw, Randolph, and Dale Davis.

The Kings replaced Bibby, Anthony Pillar, Peja, Darius Songela, and Brad Miller.

After the timeout, the Kings attack.

Bibby receives the serve and advances, his eyes are firm and full of murderous intent!

He suffered a big loss just now, and now he wants to get the situation back!

As soon as Bibby passed halftime, he was stuck tightly by the little flying squirrel.

Bibi was stunned. This rat, which was almost unable to fly, seemed to be more murderous than him!

'Damon, I heard that the guy opposite is known as the best scoring point guard in the league...'

The words Liu Xiu said when he came on stage came to the mind of Little Flying Squirrel.

When Iverson was asked to play shooting guard by Larry Brown, he got this nickname from Little Flying Squirrel!

But in the past two years, this nickname has fallen on Bibby.

Bibby immediately realized that this was a good opportunity for a breakthrough and made a strong breakthrough!

However, Bibi can't get rid of the little flying squirrel!

Although the speed of the little flying squirrel is no longer comparable to that of peak Iverson, Liu Xiu's player detection report still has a speed as high as 94.

Bibby stepped back to collect the ball at the free throw line, but the little flying squirrel could still keep up!

Bibby has a steady style of play. There is only a height difference of 10 centimeters between 185 centimeters and 175 centimeters. When he was pressed closely, he stopped the ball and did not choose to force the shot. He passed the ball.

If he doesn't pass the ball, he will be intercepted if he stops the ball.

At this time, the Kings' perfect coordination was revealed - at any time, the Kings' players on the field could find at least one teammate who could respond.

Moreover, it was Peja who responded this time!

When Peja received the ball, he ran purely to maintain a connecting space with Bibby and was unable to get rid of the defense. However, he did not hesitate, received the ball, jumped decisively, and took a long two-point shot...

Facing Travis Outlaw's defense, Peja caught the ball and hit a long two-pointer!

Peja seemed to be declaring with practical actions that now, the best pitcher in the world is not the dunker in Seattle, but him, Stojakovic!

22 to 19, the Kings continued to maintain their lead.

Offense and defense transition, the Trail Blazers attack.

Building an offense around one shooter is very common in the NBA.

But offensive tactics that revolve around the shooting of a point guard with little shooting ability are rare.

But that's what Maurice Cheeks did tonight!

The Kings once ranked first in the league in offensive efficiency and third in defensive efficiency in the 2001-02 season. Regardless of whether it was based on offensive or defensive vision, their players could easily judge the Blazers' tactics.

The Kings' defense made spontaneous adjustments. First of all, it still locked down the flying squirrel in the high post area.

Instead of replacing Bobby Jackson, a short combo guard who is the best sixth man, he replaced Anthony Peeler. Adelman's goal is to maintain the defensive level.

The opportunity still came from Liu Xiu. Although the little flying squirrel was surprised why Liu Xiu's passing and receiving space was so large. The Kings had the ability to block it, but he still passed it.

As soon as Liu Xiu received the ball, Bibby defended in place and stuck to Liu Xiu. Liu Xiu could directly drive away Bibby and go inside.

The Kings' defensive move was to predict that Liu Xiu would break through from the bottom line after his catch and shot was blocked by Bibby. The Kings gave the bottom line room to break through and were ready to block the defense, but Liu Xiu did not break through. He paused and came out.

The ball...Travis Outlaw cuts in the middle!

Travis Outlaw received the ball, which greatly exceeded the expectations of the Kings players. The people under the basket panicked and blocked the ball.

Travis Outlaw passed the ball again. Randolph received the ball from the left baseline, took a step forward, and made a short jump shot...hit!

It was Randolph who scored the goal, but it was Liu Xiu who surprised the Kings players!

In recent years, the players who have had the opportunity to play for the Kings have one thing in common - high golf IQ.

They all understand that Randolph has such an easy scoring opportunity, and it is not just Randolph himself. Travis Outlaw who passes the ball has a lot of credit. The high school rookie's extremely strong physical fitness

, which really put their defense into panic at that moment.

But the core reason why this attack was successful was Liu Xiu!

coincide?

Bibby, who was receiving the serve, thought it might be a coincidence, but not a coincidence. The rookie's golf intelligence and psychological maturity were terrifying.

Anyway, he is now praised for his calmness, but he could not be so rational early in his career.

Here comes the Kings offense.

Liu Xiuzhen didn't expect that the little flying squirrel could actually restrict Mike Bibby!

He just stimulated the enthusiasm of the little flying squirrel on the defensive end, thinking that he could cause some trouble for Bibby... When Bibby encountered the little flying squirrel's defense, he thought of that guy in the Eastern Conference-Allen Iverson!

Plenty of strength, wide shooting range, and accurate shooting are the advantages of Bibby, who is known as the "best scoring point guard."

However, Bibby's slow speed, zero explosive acceleration ability, and anxious jumping are also obvious flaws of Bibby.

Since entering the NBA, one type of defender has always given Bibby a headache - fast rushing defenders.

Fortunately, the little flying squirrel only knows how to defend like this.

Iverson, who had always given him a headache and had scored 30+ points on him several times, came to mind. Bibby's calm heart showed a slight fluctuation. He relied on strength to break through and retreat, without getting rid of the little flying squirrel's defense.

In this situation, the step-back jump shot... missed!

Randolph and Dale Davis blocked the rush of Darius Sangella and Anthony Pillar, and Liu Xiu took back the defensive rebound.

Defending backcourt rebounds is the second half of a successful defense, and the Trail Blazers have always done a good job in this regard.

Here comes the Trail Blazers offense.

The Kings' defense has not made any major adjustments for the time being. The purpose is still to guide Liu Xiu into the low post area on the right side of the three-second zone, flank, cut off passes, and create mistakes.

There are detailed adjustments. This time, we are prepared for possible cuts in the middle to avoid getting into panic like just now.

This time Liu Xiu received the ball and chose to break through. However, after taking two steps and attracting the Kings defensive movement, Liu Xiu grabbed the ball and passed it!

The Kings players focused their attention on interior defense. After listening to Liu Xiu's suggestion, the little flying squirrel quickly moved to the right sideline when Liu Xiu broke through. After receiving Liu Xiu's pass to the back, the little flying squirrel caught the ball and shot a three-pointer...

...in!

Bibi's idea just now was slapped in the face!

Calm, with a high IQ, he is not complacent or blindly confident after a good performance... Bibby feels from Liu Xiu the sophistication of Divac's "old man" player.

Just the impact of a fixed-point shot that was accurate for a while was overtaken by this rookie!
To be continued...
