Chapter 881
881. Shockingly Ironic
"The dynasty is close at hand, and the opponent the host is about to fight is the Bulls with the greatest dual dynasty... The Road to Dynasty series of missions: The best opponent triggers."
“Best opponent:
Goal: Defeat the Bulls and establish a new dynasty.
Basic reward: 50,000 healing points.
Advanced rewards: Sweep and win the championship, reward talent tendency: Roar; win 5 games, reward 1 high-level designated attribute point; win 6 games, reward 1 talent fragment, and the rewards are cumulative.”
Best opponent...
Liu Xiu looked at Michael Jordan, who was watching the game on the sidelines, and then at the six championship flags above the court.
Really the best opponent!
Jordan once said that he came back for the second time to give the stars of the new era a chance to beat him.
Maybe he regretted doing this later.
But Liu Xiu believes that Jordan may have really chosen to come back with this "great" mentality at the beginning.
Men always have such weird little thoughts, and they are easily impulsive and self-motivated.
But I will definitely regret it in the end.
No matter how nice Jordan's words are, Liu Xiu is sure that the basketball god regrets staining his career.
The two teams started on the court. The Bulls sent out a combination of Hinrich, Ben Gordon, Nocioni, Garnett, and Chandler. The Trail Blazers sent out Liu Xiu, Ray Allen, and the Outlaws.
, the combination of Randolph and Kwame Brown.
As he walked onto the court and approached the center circle, Liu Xiu heard the starting centers of the two teams exchanging insults with a lack of language... As expected of two black high school rookies.
"The first parallel import", "the second parallel import"... the constant exchange of insults.
Might as well "shabi", "bounce", "bounce again".
At 7 o'clock in the evening, the referee blew the whistle to start the game and threw the ball into the air. Kwame Brown relied on his advantage in bounce speed to narrowly defeat Chandler and move the ball backward. The Trail Blazers attacked first!
Liu Xiu received the ball and advanced to the frontcourt. Hinrich skillfully followed up. Liu Xiu and Kwame Brown cooperated in the pick-and-roll and broke into the inside. As expected, they were surrounded.
Before the Bulls completed the encirclement but before the attack could arrive, Liu Xiu took a half-step from the free throw line and took a mid-range shot...
The bounce speed of 94 + relied on the "Little Overlord's Knee Pads" to increase the bounce speed to 94. Garnett, who was guarding the pick and roll, failed to cause any interference. Liu Xiu hit the first ball!
Looking at the warden who calmly turned around and retreated, the Wolf King thought of the scoring champion who was 10 centimeters shorter... maybe more than 10 centimeters shorter.
Iverson's trick to break the encirclement defense is very simple, but if the touch is good, the effect is good.
Thinking back to 2001, when he was still a young player in the playoffs as the Wolf King. In the first game of the Finals that year, Iverson faced the encirclement defense of the OK Dynasty at its peak and made 11 mid-range shots in a single game, leading the 76ers.
The team narrowly defeated the Lakers 107-101, preventing the Lakers from winning the championship.
The 76ers were beaten in the last four games, and the OK team became furious and started attacking like crazy. This was partly because Iverson no longer had that magical mid-range performance. Garnett thought it was also a key factor.
During the transition between offense and defense, Garnett greeted his teammates. Don't be messy on the defensive end and defend according to the established strategy.
Try your best to interfere with Liu Xiu's mid-range shot and don't attack in advance.
The player who interfered was naturally him. The entire three-point line was covered by the new best defensive player, Kevin Garnett!
He is not betting on Liu Xiu's touch, but on his confidence in his personal abilities!
His on-the-spot adaptability to adapt to changes and strengthen the execution of established tactics worked. After Liu Xiu scored a goal handsomely at the beginning, he hit 5 irons in a row in the next 10 minutes...
However, Liu Xiu did not stop shooting just because he was fighting. When he had an opportunity, he would create the opportunity and shoot when he needed to, ensuring the smooth operation of his tactics.
At this time, we can only count on the Twin Towers.
Randolph is so fierce!
Liu Xiu brought Garnett to the mid-range, and the Butcher ravaged the boxing champion inside. He made 3 of 4 shots in a single quarter, plus 2 of 2 free throws. He scored 8 points, 5 rebounds, and 1 assist. 4 of the 5 rebounds were offensive.
rebound.
The Trail Blazers' offensive performance was not good in the first quarter, but with Randolph's ferocious performance, it was not bad.
The Pistons and Bulls often scored more than 70 points in the Eastern Conference Finals, and the Trail Blazers' offensive performance in the first quarter tonight was generally passable.
On the other side, the Bulls played better offensively.
In his senior year, in the NCAA Basketball Championship, Hinrich relied on pick-and-roll and defense to overcome obstacles with Nick Collison, all the way to the finals.
Now the inside partner has become Garnett, a qualitative change from a slingshot to a 21-type two-kicker level.
While ensuring the strongest defense in the league, Hinrich and Garnett used pick-and-roll cooperation to help the Bulls play a league-average offense!
At the end of the first quarter, Liu Xiu finally scored his second sports goal. He made a small throw from mid-range to short range, leaving 1.6 seconds.
In the last 1.6 seconds, the Bulls missed a three-pointer throughout the game. At the end of the first quarter, the Trail Blazers trailed the Bulls by two points, 21-23, entering the intersection break.
Looking at the data on the big screen, I made 2 of 8 shots, including 0 of 1 three-pointers, plus 2 of 2 free throws, 6 points, 2 rebounds, 1 assist, and 1 steal in a single quarter...
Liu Xiu determined that if he shot 6-for-8, the on-site director would never be able to post his data.
Tell the director at the Rose Garden Arena when you get back, and they will do the same thing next time.
Soon, the second quarter began.
Even if Liu Xiu shot so poorly in the first quarter, the Bulls' defense was still targeting him!
Liu Xiu seized the opportunity and got 3 assists in a single quarter...but he passed more than these balls. However, after the confrontation in the first quarter, the Trail Blazers performed poorly in shooting from the wings, and only Ray Allen
He scored 8 points on 2 of 4 shots and 2 of 3 free throws.
Randolph's performance continued to be efficient and he also scored 8 points in the second quarter.
In addition to Liu Xiu's 4 points, Kwame Brown scored two points with a putback dunk. Although the Trail Blazers' offense did not improve, it at least did not decline, scoring 22 points in a single quarter.
On the defensive end, the performance was not as good as planned. Nocioni scored 6 points and Garnett scored 8 points. The two led the Bulls to another 23 points in the second quarter.
In the third quarter, Liu Xiu gave up and started going wild!
Randolph and Millsap, who came on the rotation, started rushing mode.
Liu Xiu shot well in this quarter, making 5 of 10 shots, including 1 of 1 three-pointers, plus 1 of 2 free throws. He scored 12 points in a single quarter, plus Randolph and Millsap both scored
6 points. Ray Allen was solid in this quarter, but he sent 3 assists to ensure the ball moved... The Trail Blazers scored 30 points in a single quarter!
However, on the Bulls side, Ben Gordon fired continuously with the help of Hinrich and Garnett. He made 5 of 9 shots, including 2 of 2 three-pointers, plus 2 of 2 free throws. He scored in a single quarter.
14 points! Under the leadership of three people, the Bulls scored 31 points in a single quarter and were still firmly in the lead!
Chapter completed!
