Healing Basketball

   Chapter 1034 1034. Puzzle +1

Whether the Timberwolves will become stronger, Liu Xiu doesn't care...nor, he will be happier if he has another strong enemy. Roy, Luol Deng, Gasol, this combination, if played sharp?

  He was quite curious.

   But it is better not to do business that is obviously a loss. This is completely different from the situation of sending away the reed.

   Sending away Reed can get a backup pitcher, and it can also free up more opportunities for outlaws, and will not replace troublesome players.

  The logo man's first offer was not friendly at all.

  The three of them called John Nash, and after discussing it for a while, they decided to ignore the guy with the logo, without mentioning what they wanted specifically, and let him air it first.

  Even if the other party gave up and turned to other targets for trading, Blake is still in their hands, so there is no loss.

  In the evening, the Trail Blazers came to another city on the south coast—New Orleans.

   At 6:40 p.m. the next day, Liu Xiu led his teammates into the New Orleans Arena to challenge the Hornets.

   "New Orleans Hornets, 5 wins and 3 losses, averaging 95.5 points per game, allowing 94.4 points per game..."

  After years of being bad, the Hornets finally stood up!

  The last time Liu Xiu saw the Hornets had a winning percentage of over 50% after playing for half a month was in his rookie season.

   For the next 4 seasons, the Hornets have been doing badly. Finally, now that Westbrook is selected, the backbone is in place.

   Liu Xiu looked at Westbrook's player detection report, and lamented that turtles are really suitable for growing by the sea!

"Russell Westbrook, 20 years old, 191 cm, 88 kg, PG, ability rating 80, offense 83, defense 65, passing 86... averaged 16.5 points, 7 rebounds, 8 assists and 1.4 steals per game... shooting 38% , made 27.1% of three-pointers and 80.6% of free throws..."

  The hit rate looks very hot, and the defense is also terrible. It is not a black hole, and it is not much better. Gambling steals, single defense against impulse, defense against ball leakage...

  But it is so comprehensive!

  The new season has hit the present, and the point guards of the 2008 class have entered a three-legged situation. The three of Westbrook, Rose, and Mayo remind people of the point guard battle of the 2005 class.

   But no one compares them with those from the class of 2003, those are exaggerated.

   Liu Xiu feels that this guy is imitating his style of play last season...

  Backup point guard Livingston also performed well, playing as a combo guard. Since the start, he has averaged 10.6 points, 4 rebounds and 4 assists per game.

   But only in terms of strength and performance, the Hornets twin towers are what Liu Xiu cares about most, and they are also the real opponents tonight-Horford and Aldridge!

   Horford, with an ability rating of 84, averaged 13.3 points, 8.6 rebounds, 2.3 assists, 1 steal and 1.4 blocks per game; Aldridge averaged 20.5 points, 7 rebounds, 1.5 assists, 1 steal and 1 block per game.

  The addition of Turtle and Karen Mok was indeed the reason why the twin towers were activated, but the two played so well, and the more important reason was that David West, the competitor, and Bogut, who was holding back, were missing.

Liu Xiu heard that after the Olympics, the current owner of the Hornets was heartbroken. Seeing that Bogut was in the last year of his rookie contract, the Hornets tried to make a trade to see if any team was willing to gamble and pick up trash. Bogut suffered a knee injury, directly breaking the kneecap and ligaments.

Forget it, he was cured well in BJ's hospital, and the doctors who went to the auxiliary medical team for the Hornets were all surprised by the recovery. Who knew that Bogut heard that the hospital at Sange's had the best orthopedic specialist in the world. and equipment, he refused to listen to dissuasion and had to be transferred to the Ganges River.

  I don’t know whether the new treatment method is correct. Before Bogut went to the hospital for an examination at Brother Asan, he pumped the accumulated water and infected his knee. Before the examination started, inflammation appeared...

  Now Bogut's problem is not whether he can still play, but whether he can stand up.

   It is said that the Hornets have already planned to lay off Bogut directly, and are planning to sue Bogut on the grounds that he received third-party treatment without authorization and caused the injury to worsen, and refused to bear the follow-up treatment costs.

   And once the Hornets put the buyout money into Bogut's account, they will be taken away by the bank immediately. Bogut's original "the most luxurious manor in the NBA" made him owe a lot of debt...

   But Randolph shared a piece of gossip - in Los Angeles, the movie association for adults is going to pay for Bogut's treatment, and the sales of Bogut's previous movies are very good.

  The return that the association wants is also simple, allowing Bogut to switch careers to become a professional actor, and also help Bogut plan the way out - file for bankruptcy first, work hard to film after the injury is recovered, and can also shoot some hospital scenes when he is not fully recovered...

  If the waist is good enough, Bogut may be able to pay off the debt in a few years.

  When Randolph said this, Liu Xiu actually felt envious...

  After the players of the two teams entered the field, they greeted politely.

  Liu Xiu feels that Guigui is really... not likable.

  Guigui was probably the rookie with the stinkiest expression he had seen in these years, and he didn't come to provoke like some rookies, just stood aside and stared at him.

   Take the initiative to say hello, praise the other party's talent, and say "the future is yours"?

   Liu Xiu chooses not!

   There is no need to go through the process, just hammer it!

   At 7:00 p.m., after the start of the game, Liu Xiu, who triggered the 'prison kill', pressed the tortoise hammer on both ends of the offense and defense.

   Westbrook’s style of play is just a few routines. Liu Xiu was very impressed with this big man who single-handedly kicked Big O out of the top ten in the league.

  At this time, Westbrook has fewer offensive methods than in the future, and Liu Xiu can easily complete the suppression.

   On the contrary, when Livingston played point guard, the overall coordination of the Hornets was smoother.

  The strength is still stronger than that of Westbrook. For example, when playing outside lines with poor physical fitness and poor defensive awareness, Westbrook is as sharp as he can break through, but he just happened to meet Liu Xiu.

   Liu Xiu played 28 minutes tonight and made 7 of 13 shots, including 3 of 6 three-pointers and 6 of 6 free throws. He scored 23 points, 5 rebounds, 2 assists, 2 steals and 3 blocks.

  Plus Randolph's 14 points and 9 rebounds, Ray Allen's 11 points and 1 assist, the outlaw madman's 9 points and 4 rebounds, Korver's 12 points and 5 rebounds, Kwame Brown's 11 points and 10 rebounds...

  106 to 94, the Trail Blazers beat the Hornets and won 9 consecutive victories!

   Aldridge had the highest score in the game with 27 points and 7 rebounds.

  Westbrook felt the danger in the world, and was targeted by the opposing team. He made 4 of 15 shots, including 0 of 5 three-pointers, and 3 of 3 free throws. He scored 11 points, 1 rebound and 3 assists...

   What Guigui didn't know was that Liu Xiu hit him hard tonight, just because he was curiously looking at the opponent before the game and at the same time thinking about how he could be as strong as the opponent and get such good statistics...

  …

   The next day, on the 16th, the Trail Blazers came to Minneapolis.

  The city of ten thousand lakes has started the ice and snow mode. The Trail Blazers players, except Randolph, the lsp, and xsp Dragic, went out to fool around, and everyone else stayed in the hotel.

  Consecutive away games, only an energetic veteran like Randolph and a young man like Dragic are willing to go out.

   After discussing with the management, Liu Xiu took the extrajudicial fanatics to chat with Blake, who has been depressed recently.

  Blake was still the captain last year, but this year Blake was abandoned, and the whole person was lost.

  Having been partners for several years, Liu Xiu is also a little bit embarrassed.

  The content of the chat with Blake this time is to make Blake prepare for tomorrow. If the game goes well tomorrow, he will deliberately play a dozen traditional positional warfare attacks to show Blake's ability.

   Also analyzed to Blake what kind of point guard the Timberwolves need, so that Blake will not be depressed and let the other party see his strengths.

  Seeing that the opportunity came, Blake's eyes became bright again.

   After saying this, Liu Xiu took the outlaws out of Blake's room and went back to his room to play games.

After turning on the computer, Liu Xiu saw that the outlaws were suspicious, and explained: "After we rejected the Timberwolves' trade last time, they didn't move. They probably want to wait until we regret it, and when we take the initiative to find a deal with them, Then they will take the initiative.

  But we don't want to, let's see if we can make them anxious first, just give it a try, the Timberwolves already have 2 wins and 8 losses, if they drag on, they may waste this season. "

   "I understand, but I still have a question," the extrajudicial fanatic continued to ask: "Should we have players we want? Why don't we just tell them what we want in return?"

   "I used to not understand why some people just like to make charades for others to guess, but now I think that's very interesting..." Liu Xiu revealed at this moment that it was full of bad humor.

   "..." The outlaw fanatic was speechless for a moment.

Liu Xiu continued: "And we're not just waiting, we're also trying to get that player, but we don't need to be too active right now, and we can't be too active, otherwise no matter whether it's the logo guy or the team, We will all become the ones who have the initiative, but we are passive.”

"I understand, because we are not very urgent," the extrajudicial lunatic suddenly realized, "When you talked about this with the coach, you mentioned that the players we need are just icing on the cake, not necessary, and we may still be able to take advantage of it. Let the logo man help us think about who we need?"

  Liu Xiu replied with a smile: "That's right, this can also verify whether our team building ideas are consistent with those of a team building expert like him. If they are consistent, the probability of making mistakes is even smaller."

  The extrajudicial lunatics worshiped the warden more and more at the moment, and the warden was very grateful for his eyes.

   At 8 pm on November 17th, the Trail Blazers' away game against the Timberwolves started.

   After 2 hours and 19 minutes, the two teams decided the winner.

   Liu Xiu played 27 minutes and made 11 of 15 shots, including 2 of 4 three-pointers and 6 of 8 free throws. He scored 30 points, 3 rebounds, 2 assists and 3 steals.

Plus Ray Allen's 26 points, Randolph's 15 points, 7 rebounds and 4 assists, Blake's 12 points, 2 rebounds and 4 assists, Hill's 4 points, 6 rebounds and 6 assists, and the outlaw's 12 points and 4 assists. Boards, Kwame Brown 3 points, 10 rebounds, 2 assists, 2 steals, 4 blocks...

  106 to 94, the Trail Blazers once again slaughtered the Timberwolves and won 10 consecutive victories!

  The man with the logo who watched the game in the private room has a big head...

  Tonight's score was smaller than he expected, and the game was not spent.

The Trail Blazers' increasingly perfect tactical system, their 9-game winning streak, and their sluggish morale on the Timberwolves side... Combining these conditions, the logo man feels that they may break the season's highest score difference of 46 points tonight, that is, Last time they lost to the Trail Blazers by the point difference.

  The result is only 12 points difference.

  Because the opponent deliberately played the traditional style of play for a long time, the rhythm of the game was completely messed up.

  But the Timberwolves are currently in chaos, and the opponent's rhythm is chaotic and they can win more steadily.

  The man with the logo saw through the Trail Blazers' plan, and it was a proper conspiracy.

  He still has to take the call. Blake, who is currently 28 years old and in his prime, has playing time and suitable tactics, and he can show his ability to start a strong team.

  Now the Trail Blazers seized the opportunity to show off a wave. He didn't want to do anything. The Trail Blazers will find some opportunities to show Blake's strength next. Once he is spotted by other teams and there is a competition, he will be even more passive.

  As for why the Trail Blazers didn’t show Blake’s ability before… the logo man can easily analyze the reason, and he thinks Blake understands it too, so Blake promoted himself so hard tonight.

  There is always an order in everything, and the Trail Blazers' top priority is to build a good tactical system framework.

Lakers, Spurs, Trail Blazers, there are already 3 teams in the West with a dynasty team. The Mavericks are also in excellent condition this year. The Jazz, Rockets, and Hornets have unlimited potential... The logo man thinks of the pattern of the West , Want to stand up in the West, even with Roy, Luol Deng, and Gasol, it is so difficult!

   What about the promised star travel to the East and the decline in the West?

   Should I say it or not, the West is indeed better than the East in the draft.

   But for him, that's the challenge!

  He can get a good salary wherever he goes, and he has won a lot of championship rings as a management team. Now he just wants to challenge the impossible!

  If you fail, will you lose face... If you lose such a big warden, you will lose face long ago, so I don't care.

  …

   On the 19th, the Trail Blazers narrowly beat the Warriors 111 to 106 away.

  Liu Xiu played 40 minutes and made 7 of 14 shots, including 3 of 3 three-pointers and 5 of 5 free throws. He scored 22 points, 7 rebounds, 9 assists and 4 steals efficiently.

  Although the Warriors lost their beards, the offense was still very sharp under the coach of Nelson.

  The 23-year-old Ellis seems to have unlimited potential, but there is still a gap compared with the bearded man who played in his prime last season.

   On the 20th, the Trail Blazers returned to Portland. At noon, the league announced the player of the week award for the third game week.

  Finally, Liu Xiu won the best of the week in the first season of the new season!

   Last week, he won all 4 games, averaging 26 points, 5 rebounds, 7.5 assists, 3.25 steals and 1.25 blocks per game.

  In the East, Billups of the Pistons won the award, 3 wins and 1 loss, averaging 20 points, 2.5 rebounds, 7 assists and 2.75 steals per game.

   At 8 o'clock in the evening, the Trail Blazers ushered in the challenge of the Bulls alternately at home and away.

   After 2 hours and 23 minutes, the game ended and the Trail Blazers, who were forced into a defensive battle, lost to the Bulls 82 to 87.

   Liu Xiu made 14 of 34 shots, including 2 of 10 three-pointers, and 6 of 8 free throws. He scored 36 points, 11 rebounds, 4 assists, 2 steals and 1 block. He scored his first 20 irons in a single game of the new season.

   Garnett played like crazy with 14 points, 17 rebounds, 6 assists, 4 steals and 2 blocks.

  Pierce scored 20 points, Hinrich's 9 points and 8 assists, Okur's 17 points, 6 rebounds and 2 blocks...

  When the Trail Blazers were forced to defend tonight, the star offense was not as good as the opponent.

  Kwame Brown had 8 points and 7 rebounds, Randolph had 11 points and 11 rebounds, Birdman had 10 points and 6 rebounds, Ray Allen scored 6 points on 2 of 8 shots...

  The Bulls did a great job of defending the COSCO tonight. A group of Trail Blazers were forced to rush towards the basket where Okur protected the frame and Garnett supplemented the defense. They were capped and blocked several times in the paint.

  After the final whistle sounded, the fans wailed in unison.

   Has been on a winning streak, and it will be broken when I come back!

  Liu Xiu's side is also very painful. When I receive the system prompt, I will give you +2!

  First, the 250 healing value consolation for losing, and then the ‘New Era Unveiling’ triggered after 10 consecutive victories, which is the end of the opening streak mission.

  11 consecutive victories, got 22000 healing value.

   More than 10 consecutive victories, get 1 random attribute point, the random attribute is explosive power, raised to 89, 1 point away from the top.

   But looking at the explosive acceleration and explosive power have reached 89, each of these two items is increased by 1 point, and every aspect of his physical fitness has reached the top level.

  Every physical fitness has reached 90. Liu Xiu remembers seeing only two people—Josh Smith and LeBron James.

  …

  After playing this wave of hard 6 games, the Trail Blazers got 3 days of rest.

  Just after a home game, the coaching staff didn’t arrange anything on the first rest day. For most players, it was pure rest.

   But not for Liu Xiu.

   Yesterday's loss to the Bulls was a wake-up call for him - they weren't good enough!

  When they meet a team like the Bulls with a full defense, they play very hard!

  The away and home games alternate back to back. The coaching staff can use this to comfort the players, but Liu Xiu will not use this as an excuse.

  Everything is difficult at the beginning. In the initial stage of building a new system, strict requirements are required.

  He watched the video clips several times in the morning... Sure enough, money can make motui ghosts, and the editors of their team are better.

   After watching the video clips several times, Liu Xiu came to a conclusion—the tactics they are currently working on may have been studied by the Bulls many times before they have been well-adjusted.

  A tactic, as long as it has been played on the court, there will be a video, and the opponent can study it, even if they are just experimenting with this tactic.

   But in the regular season, there is probably no one else who is as perverted as the Bulls to target his warden.

   But last night's game also sounded the alarm for him, they need to push the progress of system building!

   It's just how to push it, which is another headache for Moustache, intern assistants, Bu Shuai and others.

  Why are they headaches?

Because the warden student is only responsible for asking questions, if he can think of the answer, he will not ask the coaching staff, but if he can’t think of the answer, he will not toss himself, but throw it to the coaching staff, and then go to play football with the baby …

  In the evening, when Liu Xiuzheng was sweating in the yard with little Jay Chou, Qing Er ran over holding his mobile phone 'dongdongdong', picked up the eldest nephew, and handed the mobile phone to the unlucky brother.

  The poor big boy fell down many times today, and Qing'er was so distressed that he didn't want it.

   Liu Xiu looked at the caller ID, it was the vice president calling.

   "Boss, can you call me during the holidays..."

   Before Liu Xiu finished speaking, the other party shouted excitedly: "Jess, the person we want is here! It's not the type we want, but the person we want! The best choice!"

  …

   On November 21, 2008, the Trail Blazers, Timberwolves, Suns, and Bobcats reached a four-way deal.

  The trade that the Trail Blazers participated in was equivalent to sending out Steve Blake and a special case of $5.29 million in the trade with the Clippers, and got Boris Diaw from the Suns.

  Other teams, the Timberwolves sent Randy Foye and Brandon Rush to get Blake from the Trail Blazers.

The Suns sent Raja Bell, Boris Diaw, second-round rookie Sean Singert, and the draft pick protected at the top 43rd pick in the second round in 2010 to the Bobcats for Jason Richardson, Jay Ryder Dudley.

Bobcats trade Jason Richardson, Jared Dudley for Randy Foye, Brandon Rush, Raja Bell, Sean Singlet, Suns 2010 second-round pick .

  After dinner, Liu Xiu got the details of the deal, read it over, and focused on Dudley.

If he remembers correctly, this guy is the last one to retire among all the players involved in this four-party deal, and finally won a championship with Lao Zhan, marking the 13-year career for him. A perfect ending for role players.

  "Boris Diaw...In the 2007-2008 season, he played 82 games, started 13 games, and came off the bench in 69 games. He averaged 28.1 minutes per game, 8.5 points, 4.5 rebounds and 4 assists per game..."

  Diao reminds Liu Xiu of Turkoglu, Draymond Green... Players like this are very suitable as the core of the three-point shooting strategy.

  Diao is not as strong as these two, but is more suitable for their Trail Blazers.

   What they want is not a real core, but a sufficient player.

   Moreover, Dior is the first candidate in their plan!

They made an offer to the Suns at the beginning, and they used Millsap instead of Blake as a bargaining chip. They thought that with Nash, the Suns, who lost Marion and stopped running and bombing, must have good pick-and-roll talent and Aggressive Millsap interested, but Steve Kerr turned it down...

   This will make John Nash and the vice president impossible. They have never shown interest in Dior since then, and it can be said that they have given up.

  Millsap was rejected by the other party, who else could he give it to?

   Of course, they also have options—Al Harrington, Livingston, Villanueva, Thaddeus Young, Brad Miller...etc.

  The most preferred option other than Dior is Al Harrington, all of which are true panacea.

  If Harrington can’t get it, then don’t pursue what you really know, and use it first if you have enough.

  Those people really can’t get a deal, so they can continue to lower their requirements. If it’s really not possible, try to sign Fat Toutuo first.

  Liu Xiu originally thought that the logo man helped them get Brad Miller's old age, high salary and two-year premium contract, and they could accept it without paying more chips.

   Unexpectedly, the logo man was willing to send out another first-round rookie, and got them the 26-year-old Diao Ge, who was in the prime of his career!
