Healing Basketball

   Chapter 222 222. The demon sword is unsheathed! (The 3rd is asking for a monthly pass!)

   After the halftime break, both teams stepped onto the court in high spirits.

  Confidence spread among all players on both teams.

   The cheers of the live fans were fully charged during the intermission, and the live cheering waves and boo attacks were even crazier!

   However, in the competition, you still have to speak with strength.

  Evil No. 21 has only one hand to cover the sky!

   Duncan, whose free throw percentage dropped below 60% this season, made 4 of 4 free throws in the third quarter. The Trail Blazers’ shark slashing tactics failed and could only be dealt with by pinching.

   The second quarter went a long way, and in the second half, Duncan finally got his teammates up.

  Duncan scored 6 points, 2 rebounds, 2 assists and 2 blocks in the half quarter, leading the Spurs to 14 points in the half quarter, while limiting the Blazers to 8 points in the half quarter.

   When entering the official timeout, the Spurs widened the difference to 9 points, leading the Trail Blazers 51-42!

  …

   In two and a half quarters, played 26 minutes and scored 23 points, 11 rebounds, 4 assists and 5 blocks!

   Duncan's performance is reminiscent of last season's finals, the crazy series that made Duncan the No. 1 power forward in history.

   In the finals, Parker was definitely not as good as Kidd, otherwise the Spurs would not try to trade Kidd with Parker + Manu Ginobili + two or three first-round chips last summer.

  David Robinson, Manu Ginobili, Malik Rose, Stephen Jackson... and others all fell behind in the matchup.

   But Duncan single-handedly destroyed the Nets!

In those 6 games, Duncan averaged 24.2 points, 17 rebounds, 5.3 assists and 5.3 blocks per game.

   The Nets intend to agree to the transaction, but Kidd just happened to have a rookie contract expired and is a complete free agent. He refused to go to the Spurs, or he would change teams. The Nets naturally chose to renew the contract and refused to sign first and then change.

  Some media expressed regret - 30-year-old Kidd teamed up with 27-year-old Duncan, and the league will enter an era of gray and black shadows in the next 6-8 years.

   Kidd can even sign the Spurs naked. Even if the Spurs finally sign and then trade for the contract amount, the Spurs estimate that a Parker Nets team will agree, and other chips can be completely withheld.

   But Kidd was unwilling to join the enemy.

   Tonight, Duncan gives the impression that he is the one from last year's finals!

   Invincible!

   The fans were shocked, and so were the Blazers players.

   was beaten and stunned.

   In the second quarter, they felt that they could face off against the Spurs, but they were crushed by a player alone.

   Is this a superstar?

   Liu Xiu clearly felt the rapid decline in the confidence of his teammates.

  If there is no chasing points in the second half of the first quarter, and there is no close match in the second quarter, Duncan alone in the third quarter collapses, the blow is actually not that big.

   Now their situation is equal to Liu Bang's high-spirited and 500,000-strong army to fight Xiang Yu and be overturned by the opponent's 30,000 people, there is a possibility of defeat.

   Shade may occur!

  Do you regret leading the team to fight at the end of the first quarter? He didn't, and he would choose to fight again.

   Otherwise, it would have collapsed earlier, how could we wait until now.

   It's just that the difference in strength between the strongest star is too big. Both sides should only get 8-10 points in the half quarter, but the Spurs relied on Duncan to score higher.

   Being able to play against Peak Duncan and enjoy the game itself, the Warden feels fantastic.

   Duncan, before his athletic ability was destroyed by plantar fasciitis, played one game less.

  This injury cannot be avoided. In the future, some sports medicine experts have talked about this injury that forced Duncan to adjust his style of play at his peak age. It is an overwork injury.

   Don't want to lose!

   Liu Xiu doesn't want to lose!

   But he was also very weak. In two and a half quarters, he played for 24 minutes, with 8 points, 6 rebounds, 3 assists and 1 steal. There was really no way tonight.

  Suddenly, his eyes lit up!

   Got it!

   "System Brother, open the double edge!"

   Give it a go!

   "Talent: Double Blades, there is a 50% probability of entering the demon sword moment, a 50% probability of entering the sleepwalking moment, the time limit for the game is 20 minutes... Is it enabled?"

   The third quarter reached 6 minutes and 09 seconds, and the game time was less than 20 minutes.

   That is, the rest of the time is either a demon or a pit.

   of course!

  Immediately, he 'saw' his three-dimensional image holding a stick, and he immediately thought of a picture - Tang Youyou holding a lightsaber...

  ‘Is that so ridiculous? ’

  Liu Xiu's mouth twitched... It's really so ridiculous!

With a    three-dimensional image, he pressed the button in the middle of the stick, and the end of the stick away from 'him' shot out a beam of light... Then the entire three-dimensional image disappeared.

   What does this mean?

   The question just came, and the system prompt also came.

   "Talent: The Demon Sword has been activated, the bonus effect: excellent physical condition, excellent hand feel, excellent sense of rhythm, highly clear thinking on the court, rising ball quotient, entering the field state, basketball in hand, I have the world..."

   "Mom!"

   Liu Xiu spit out a sound, causing the attention of the surrounding teammates.

   Although I don't understand it, the tone of voice seems to be cursing.

   They know how competitive their warden is.

   The warden couldn't calm down anymore, and their mood became more and more irritable.

   Liu Xiu discovered this, and was a little annoyed. A little bit of negative influence would have a big impact on them now.

   But that's it, who cares, take another look at the bonus of the double-edged demon sword... Do it!

   But he had a question, he asked it in his heart, and the system gave it an answer.

"The host can copy Manu Ginobili next time they play against the Spurs, and there is a certain probability to copy the talent again: Double Blades, there is a certain probability that the sleepwalking state will be activated. This time, the system cannot enter the sleepwalking state, the system is deeply regretful, I hope Next time the host can get lucky and experience the sleepwalking state."

  ‘Don’t curse me, okay! ’

  …

  The official suspension is back.

  The Blazers sent a combination of Liu Xiu, Ruben Patterson, Outlaws, Randolph, and McDyess.

  The Spurs sent a combination of Parker, Manu Ginobili, Ron Mercer, Malik Rose, and Duncan.

  Popovich's intention is obvious - brandishing the main player, chasing after the victory.

  The Blazers' rotation looks very conservative, and they continue to play the defensive rhythm.

   The game continued, and the Blazers attacked.

  Liu Xiu received the ball in the frontcourt and dribbled it towards the top arc... I didn't feel any difference, so I just ignored it and finished it.

   Parker pressed up to defend when Liu Xiu was approaching the three-point line, and his face was extraordinarily excited. Although it was not him who crushed Liu Xiu, it was Duncan who hammered the opponent's team alone, but he was honored.

   It feels great to beat a talented rookie! He also wanted to keep enjoying it.

   Speaking of which, although Parker entered the NBA two years earlier, he is three months younger than Liu Xiu, which has nothing to do with maturity.

  Liu Xiu didn't answer, just 'self-feeling' lost his mind for two seconds, and immediately entered the competition state.

   This little change, he didn't realize it.

  The time has come, Liu Xiu ran over Parker and made a sudden burst!

   Parker being run over is the norm, and Popovich even used him to guard James.

   Parker followed closely behind, Ginobili shrank on the flanks, Parker took advantage of his speed to move his footsteps, cut off Liu Xiu's turning line behind him, and Ruben Patterson's high move became an invalid move.

   In addition to these two people, Malik Rose also moved to a suitable position, forming a pincer attack on Liu Xiu!

   It seems that he is about to hit the iron or make a mistake again, but Liu Xiu is now highly calm, he has found a line, and he strikes decisively... catch the ball, European step!

   Liu Xiu stepped forward to the left and came to the front of the basket. Malik Rose blocked it, but when Liu Xiu landed, he immediately jumped towards the right front. Malik Rose rushed over and couldn't make it back.

  Liu Xiu got up and made a layup at the half-step position on the right sideline of the three-second zone!

   Nice shot!

  The cheers of the fans originally just to cheer the players turned into real screams of excitement.

   This ball is really beautiful!

  44 to 51, the difference narrowed to 7 points.

   The teammates who had lost confidence in the past also got a mouthful of milk at this moment, which eased a little.

   Liu Xiu feels different!

The    ability is still the same ability, and it does not elevate the technology itself.

   However, the acuity of the sense of smell to find the opportunity, the decisiveness of the attack, the rhythm of the European step, the touch of the layup, the physical condition support technology...all full!

   The demon sword is unsheathed!

  As he retreated from the defense, he couldn't help but come up with a thought-since it was a random effect of 55 to 50, then in a sleepwalking state, wouldn't he be able to dribble with the same foot?

  I am afraid to think about it...

  When the Spurs attacked, Duncan was no longer on the offensive, and he passed the stage of his struggle.

   Manu Ginobili played singles with the ball. Sometimes I really don’t know what he was thinking, but he chose to shoot in the middle!

   Duncan turned around and rushed to the basket when he saw Manu Ginobili made a mid-range shot.

   But the Blazers are well-prepared defensively and know the characteristics of the opponent's main players well.

   Manu Ginobili's powerful 29.9% mid-range shooting percentage, a glorious one-tie... Liu Xiu took the defensive rebound!

  Randolph thought that the warden was about to average 8 rebounds per game... Wait, think about yourself! It takes more offensive rebounds to maintain 10+ rebounds per game.

   Liu Xiu advanced to the front court, he didn't care about anything else, he just went straight up and played with all his strength.

   Although this is a no-brainer, he has no choice but to do everything he can, but this coincides with the idea of ​​the "demon sword".

  Liu Xiu broke through Parker in singles and made a half-step pull-up jumper from the free throw line...

   Missed!

  Randolph rushed to grab the offensive rebound. Duncan didn't protect the board, but he didn't mess up, covering Randolph and not jumping blindly.

  Randolph felt like there was a barrier over his head! Can't vote! The shot is to find a hat!

   But he can't do it... There's a way!

   He turned his head and saw someone rushing in, and quickly threw the ball to the middle.

  Duncan is very experienced, has a strong sense of crisis, goosebumps and hairs... here! It's coming again... why say it again? Oh! I felt this way once tonight...

   Duncan failed to turn around, raised his hand sideways in the direction of the top arc, trying to influence the opponent to attack the frame, but did not jump, fearing that the opponent would be injured, it could be considered to avoid a meaningless foul.

  “哐”

   Liu Xiu cuts in the middle, flying low and smashing the ball into the basket through Duncan!

  Duncan scored twice! Blocked again!

   But when he saw who was detaining him, his pupils burst!

   He thought he was an outlaw fanatic, but he didn't expect to be another rookie!

   This rookie, he can cap it!

  …

  …

   Ask for a monthly pass!

   Ask for a recommendation ticket!

  6/23 Plus update.
