446. Take Mosaic Easily

Now, and for a long time to come, if you go to the street and ask any passerby, they may not watch the NBA, but they may all know 34 seconds and 13 minutes.

‘Let the ball fly a little longer’ has become the most popular saying in the basketball world.

Yes, Liu Xiu now has famous sayings.

This is the public opinion environment that he feels now belongs to him.

With the introduction of sponsors and league officials, he has been praised to the sky.

This is just the public opinion environment in the United States. The domestic aspect is even more exaggerated. The way the domestic media praises him, Liu Xiu feels that they are trying to trick him. A time of 34 seconds and 13 minutes, but he is praised by the domestic media as if he is two times better than Jordan.

Three consecutive championships is even more awesome.

But who doesn’t like nice words?

He also felt an unprecedented sense of satisfaction.

He is very confident, and he is calmer than most NBA players, but in such a public opinion environment, he still can't help but think, "I'm done with my awesomeness."

This is because he has never received any substantial honors. If we really want to talk about hard honors, he only got selected to the third team in his rookie season.

How about a superstar who is only 25 years old and has already been selected to the All-NBA Team for four consecutive years, twice in the First Team, twice in the Second Team, and just won two consecutive scoring titles?

That can't float into the sky!

Before, Liu Xiu didn't understand why some McGrady fans in the original time and space believed that 35 seconds and 13 minutes ruined McGrady. Although he still doesn't understand it now, he understands their logic.

The logic is that after McGrady played 35 seconds and 13 points, he lost the willpower of being forced to be a super giant during the Magic team, and lost the desire to be Pippen next to Hill when he first joined the Magic team.

The team spirit, losing the spirit of sacrifice that was willing to assist Hill and Duncan, became more and more mediocre.

Mediocrity does not refer to strength. McGrady, who was plagued by injuries in the 2007-08 season, still averaged 21+5+5 per game. He played 66 games and recorded 46 wins and 20 losses, and was selected to the third team.

Mediocrity refers to character!

After 35 seconds and 13 minutes, Tracy McGrady felt that he was invincible, that no one could compare with him, that no teammate was worthy of him, that all problems were other people's... thus losing his aura and becoming a mediocre self.

Crazy.

Just injuries can't annihilate the aura rising from the bones, such as Hill and Pence. Even if you play against them now, their strength will definitely not be comparable to that of back then, but when you play against them, you feel that they are still the same.

After scoring 13 points in 35 seconds, McGrady clearly has a better partner than he had in the first seven years of his career. He has a second-team center that he has never had before, and he is the first super player to average 25 points per game since O'Neal.

He still feels that he is not enough as a center. He complains about God's injustice all day long. Everyone else has good teammates, but he does not. As for Iverson, Kobe, and Carter, they all had more difficult times. He doesn't care. He scored 13 points in 35 seconds...

This incident of flattery happened very suddenly, and you may not even feel that you were flattered at the time.

If Liu Xiu hadn't always been calm in this regard, and was very aware of popularity and attention, without the support of achievements and honors, he was just a rootless person, he might have drifted away.

Of course, he didn't think there was anything wrong with getting 34 seconds and 13 minutes this time.

Is McGrady's moment really a bad thing for McGrady himself?

Anyway, if Liu Xiu were to choose again, he would still take 34 seconds and 13 minutes.

Although he is already very popular, these 30 seconds still gave him the feeling of becoming famous all over the world in one fell swoop!

…

…

On March 20, Liu Xiu woke up on time as always and extracted the simulation training results.

"Congratulations to the host for improving his three-point rating to 75 and his rhythm flow breakthrough (Kobe Bryant version) to 83."

There has been a little progress!

After Liu Xiu was happy for a while, he opened the task section.

“Giant Killer:

Goal accomplished: Tim Duncan..."

"Escape from the silver-white fear (advanced):

The host has led the team to sweep the Spurs in the 2004-2005 regular season.

Congratulations to the host, Ginobili’s version of the European step training method has been upgraded to the highest level (90).”

Yesterday, he was praised by the public for a day. Today, although the intensity of the praise has not decreased, and the league and sponsors are still working hard, he himself has put this matter aside and started to calmly think about today's game and analyze long-term things.

Yesterday I couldn't even calm down to read the task prompts, but today I can finally think calmly.

He no longer has to worry about the European step training method for a long time. According to his personal experience, even if he spends all the rest of the season simulating the European step, he still won’t be able to finish this training method.

The mission objective about Duncan in the mission "Giant Killer" has been completed, but the follow-up mission about Duncan has been started, but it has not been triggered yet.

These two things are things that don't need to be worried about. We will think of a solution when the European team really reaches a bottleneck. We will think about Duncan's mission when it comes. Liu Xiu first put this matter aside.

It's the last game of four consecutive away games, against the Rockets.

If this opponent were to face him at home, Liu Xiu would be under a lot of pressure. Every time he plays against the Rockets at home, it will be very frustrating.

But when playing away from home...you can't be careless!

…

Seeing Liu Xiu return to his usual calmness, the coaches felt very relieved, but at the same time they were also seriously healed.

The coaches learned what it meant to say, "People may be more different than people and dogs."

As coaches and colleagues, they are still excited about the 34 seconds and 13 minutes the night before yesterday.

But the person involved has treated this matter calmly, as if it was just an ordinary game in his career...

Today there are still media requests for interviews, but Liu Xiu refused to accept all interviews except for the daily shooting of the documentary of Chaoting Station and the pre-match promotional shooting of Chaoting Station.

Press officer Kyle asked worriedly: "Warden, won't this offend the media?"

Liu Xiu was speechless for a while, then responded: "I, the warden, our team, the prison team, they all say that I am possessed by Satan at 34 seconds and 13 minutes. Are we still afraid of offending them?"

Looking at the warden's eyes, which looked like he was looking at a fool, the press officer also felt that he was mentally retarded...

The day's preparation time passed quickly, and at 8 o'clock in the evening, the third Chinese Derby of the 2004-2005 season started at Yao Ming's home court!

From the beginning of the game, the characteristics of the Rockets' home court were clearly demonstrated.

In the first quarter, Liu Xiu scored 7 points in a single quarter, and the Outlaws who came off the bench scored 8 points in the half. With the outstanding performance of the two, the Trail Blazers entered the second quarter with a 5-point lead over the Rockets, 24-19.

Compared with the last time they played against each other, the Rockets' fighting spirit and confidence were seriously lacking tonight, and their laziness was obvious.

It's really incredible to have such emotions during a home game.

But when it comes to the Rockets, opponents and fans watching the live broadcast on TV are really used to it!

In addition, the Rockets players were extremely impatient when guarding Liu Xiu tonight, as if they wanted to prove something. However, the impatient defense allowed Liu Xiu to shoot 3 of 4 in a single quarter.

However, the offense collapsed, with no fighting spirit and momentum, but the Rockets' defense was still very good. Liu Xiu and the Outlaws combined to score 15 points in a single quarter, and the Trail Blazers only scored 24 points.

In the second quarter, the Rockets' defense against Liu Xiu became normal, and they finally got rid of the impact that 34 seconds and 13 points had on them.

The Rockets also successfully limited the Trail Blazers to 20 points in the second quarter.

However, the Trail Blazers' defense also continued, and the Rockets still only scored 19 points in the second quarter!

After halftime, the Trail Blazers led the Rockets by 6 points 44 to 38!

In the third quarter, the Rockets tried to counterattack, but failed and did not have a substantial impact on the Trail Blazers.

Relying on Liu Xiu's 3 points, 2 rebounds, 4 assists and 1 steal in a single quarter, the Trail Blazers scored 23 points in a single quarter while focusing on defense, and limited the Rockets to only 21 points.

After three quarters, the Trail Blazers led the Rockets by 8 points 67-59!

In the last quarter, the Rockets tried to counterattack again, but still to no avail. In the last quarter, the Trail Blazers' defensive performance declined slightly. However, after Yao Ming's physical decline, he narrowed the defensive range in order to ensure the defensive effect. Randolph had a better chance to connect with the mid-range ball on the bottom line and grasped it.

Living.

Yao Ming made 3 of 5 shots in the final quarter, all of which were mid-range shots, plus 3 of 4 free throws, scoring 9 points. The Rockets used this to score 25 points in a single quarter.

But the Trail Blazers relied on Randolph's mid-range shot to score 6 points, Liu Xiu's five assists in a single quarter, and Flying Squirrel's two three-pointers... They also scored 25 points in the final quarter!

Yao Ming played 35 minutes tonight, making 11 of 18 shots, plus 8 of 9 free throws. He scored 30 points, 8 rebounds, 2 assists and 4 blocks. He was almost bleeding, but he still failed to lead the team to complete the reversal.

At 10:22 pm, the final whistle sounded, and the Trail Blazers won the defensive battle 92-84!

…

After the final whistle sounded, Liu Xiu received a system prompt.

Earned an S- rating for the second consecutive game!

His S-level rating has reached 11 times, which is one short of the 12 S-level ratings last season.

He played 36 minutes tonight, which is lower than the season average, and he took a break in each quarter.

It seemed that the score was very close, but in fact there was not much pressure tonight, and the Rockets did not show any real counterattack ability tonight.

In 36 minutes of playing time, Liu Xiu made 9 of 17 shots, including 1 of 3 three-pointers, and 6 of 8 free throws. His performance was still very stable. He scored 38 points against the Spurs the day before yesterday, and scored 38 points against the Rockets today.

25 points, continuing to average over 30 points per game.

Liu Xiu can get an S- rating, which is definitely not just 25 points, but also 11 rebounds, 13 assists and 3 steals!

5th triple double this season!

People were very surprised about Liu Xiu's triple double.
Chapter completed!
