473. Revenge Lord

What matters is the warden's scoring king competition!

James gave the warden an assist yesterday - in the 76ers' game against the Cavaliers, Iverson made 7 of 16 shots and 7 of 9 free throws to score 21 points and 16 assists, leading the team to narrowly defeat the Cavaliers 103-97.

Currently, Liu Xiu has played 70 games, averaging 31.8 points per game; Iverson has played 71 games, averaging 32.3 points per game.

Liu Xiu was suspended for 7 games this season, and Iverson was absent for 7 games due to injury.

Relying on the Cavaliers' limit on Iverson's scoring, the gap between the two in the same game narrowed from 47 points to 36 points!

Faced with his idol's heavy hammer attack, James attracted a wave of fans in Portland.

This is definitely a huge benefit for Liu Xiu to compete for the scoring king, but when he met the Jazz team, a team that loves tossing people, the Trail Blazers fans feel very stressed! The hostility towards the Jazz team is also deeper!

Trail Blazers fans say that the Jazz have been flirting with their opponents this season and deliberately disgusting their opponents. It’s really not that they are talking bad things about the Jazz.

The Jazz are really playing badly this season. It will be difficult for them to make the playoffs, but it is not a big problem to win 40!

In this case, players can understand the team's plan, but negative emotions are inevitable. In this case, they can only find ways to make fun of their hardships and rely on defense to make trouble for their opponents.

As long as they see others being unhappy, they will be happy.

The current public opinion says that they are a roadblock on Liu Xiu’s road to winning the score king. The Jazz players really think this roadblock is decided!

Especially Ruben Patterson, he wanted to take revenge on Liu Xiu long ago, and he couldn't fight. If it could affect Liu Xiu's scoring king, hehe... he was humble and became a younger brother at the beginning, but he was sold off. This hatred was naturally put on the warden.

Jazz head coach Jerry Sloan will not stop him, but will help him.

This is their team temperament.

…

At 7:30 pm, the Trail Blazers' home game against the Jazz began.

Jazz starters: Howard Eisley, Ruben Patterson, Kirilenko, Boozer, Oku.

Trail Blazers starters: Payton, Liu Xiu, Rahim, Valaijo, and McDyce.

Morris Chicks continued to choose to rest.

He is very confident in the players and is also cautious. 60 wins are good, but staying healthy for the playoffs is the most important thing. The second-ranked Mavericks in the West have won 14 consecutive games, so it is difficult for them to rush forward. Moreover, he really thinks that this lineup is enough for the Jazz.

Another thing is to help Liu Xiu compete for the scoring king... Randolph's turnover is resting, so wouldn't Liu Xiu have more power to take action?

Methods to increase the sense of belonging to the star - help players win substantial honors.

Next season, players in 2003 can renew their contracts in advance.

After the game started, the Trail Blazers fans and coaching staff found that their worries were redundant, and the confidence of Jazz players was also a matter of no origin.

Although the Trail Blazers only have 1 win and 2 losses in the Jazz this season, Liu Xiu's performance is not bad every time he plays the Jazz.

Moreover, the last time Liu Xiu met with the Jazz, he scored 12 points in the 9th minute of the last quarter, and the Trail Blazers also limited the Jazz's score to 16 points in the last quarter.

The most important thing is that the previous game between the Trail Blazers and the Jazz had some contempt for the bottom team.

The Trail Blazers will not be contemptuous tonight. Liu Xiu and his teammates are determined to win and step onto the court with caution after being upset twice!

After the first quarter, although the Trail Blazers still only scored 22 points, they played hard on defense and limited the Jazz to only score 17 points!

22-17, the Trail Blazers led by 5 points in the first quarter. Liu Xiu made 5 of 10 shots in a single quarter, plus 4 of 6 free throws, and scored 14 points in a single quarter!

In every attack in the first quarter of the Trail Blazers, almost Liu Xiu’s first choice!

Sloan was shocked when he saw this scene. Even if Randolph rested, the Trail Blazers still had Payton, Raheem, Van Horn, and Derek Anderson, a few players with independent shooting rights played in the first quarter, but the one who shot seemed to be Liu Xiu forever!

Even Jordan wasn't so outrageous back then!

There is a question now before Sloan - should we continue to emphasize defensive discipline, or how to play casually?

Thinking of Liu Xiu's attempt to beat him for more than a dozen rounds in the first quarter, Sloan thought he should emphasize defensive discipline!

After retiring from the Double Evil, the Jazz can still maintain their tits of making their opponents crazy, relying on their defensive discipline.

Then, Liu Xiu made 6 of 13 shots in the second quarter, including 1 of 2 three-pointers, plus 3 of 3 free throws, and 16 points in a single quarter!

Liu Xiu made more moves in the second quarter than in the first quarter! He scored 30 points in 23 shots in the first quarter? Sloan was not shocked, but was stunned! Even after Xiao Feishe came on the court, he chose to help Liu Xiu take action as his first choice! The number of moves was more than in the first quarter!

The most important thing is Liu Xiu's condition! It's amazingly good!

In the last month's fight, Liu Xiu's condition had already made Sloan miss him and he could maintain such a stable performance in March.

This time Sloan felt what terrible it was!

The pace of the game is almost the same as in the playoffs. Liu Xiu's performance in a stronger confrontation and looser whistle is even stronger than the adjustment stage in March!

Is this the legendary playoff player?

Sloan was envious... He didn't want to admit it, but both evil players were really inferior to regular season players in the playoffs.

Liu Xiu's condition far exceeded the Jazz's expectations. The Jazz's defense was definitely effective, but it was far lower than their expected results.

Liu Xiu opened up the situation. In addition, the Trail Blazers players have a positive attitude than they did when they played against the Jazz in the first three times, so they pay more attention to this game. The strength gap between the 60-win team and the second-to-last team in the West is very obvious!

Even if the Trail Blazers start the two towers without playing, as long as they focus and are serious, their strength will still be stronger than the Jazz!

And what the other Trail Blazers have to do tonight is very simple, that is, defense, and there is no need to worry about offense.

In the second quarter, the Trail Blazers scored 23-16, and the score difference continued to widen. After halftime, the Trail Blazers led the Jazz 45-33 by 12 points!

In the third quarter, Sloan did not need to choose whether to continue to emphasize defensive discipline or find ways to limit Liu Xiu's score. The players were completely unable to adhere to team defensive discipline. Ruben Patterson took the lead in starting the lock-up warden mode.

After the first quarter, Liu Xiu expected the game to develop in this direction. The Jazz didn't start to mess up until the second half, which was beyond his expectations.

The team coached by Sloan is really nothing to say about discipline!

Attract pincer attacks, pass the ball, and find opportunities to shoot in counterattacks... Liu Xiu's playing style is simple, clear and clear.

Tonight, Liu Xiu copied the teammate of Xiao Feishi, who strengthened the counterattack; the opponent, who copied Matt Harplin, also strengthened the offense. The opponent's characteristics transformation talent is a "tough guy", the matching degree is not high, and the remaining blood version, but the attack after the confrontation reduces the negative effects brought by the confrontation. This bonus is not bad. It is just right to deal with the Jazz team with iron-blooded tactics, especially in the third quarter. The two talents have brought him great help.

After the Jazz became in chaos, the offense that was not very bad became worse, and even a bunch of people shot around the three-point line. After the Jazz became in chaos, the defense was not as good as they expected. Liu Xiu had more counterattack opportunities in the third quarter than in the first two quarters! There were more free throws!

Liu Xiu made 3 of 5 shots in the third quarter, plus 7 free throws, and scored 13 points in a single quarter!

Under the leadership of Liu Xiu, the Trail Blazers scored 28 points in the third quarter! After the third quarter, the teammates scored higher than him for the first time.

On the Jazz, they only scored 12 points in the third quarter, one point less than Liu Xiu’s personal score!

73 to 45, the Trail Blazers led the Jazz 28 points in three quarters!

Liu Xiu made 14 of 28 shots, including 1 of 4 three-pointers, plus 14 of 16 free throws, 43 points, and clocked in for three quarters to get off work!

…

At 9:50 p.m., the Trail Blazers and Jazz game ended.

In the last quarter, Liu Xiu, Payton, Flying Squirrel and Raheem did not play, and there was no accident. The score difference at the end of the third quarter, even if the Trail Blazers scored 0 points in the last quarter, the Jazz could not turn the game.

95 to 66, the Trail Blazers slaughtered the Jazz to complete revenge, and this season's regular season matched the Jazz to 2 wins and 2 losses!

The Trail Blazers became the fourth team this season to not lose the disadvantage when fighting teams in the same division after the Suns, Spurs and Pistons.

After defeating the Jazz, the Trail Blazers' record increased to 58 wins and 20 losses, tying last season's record!

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

S-level rating! The 12th S-level rating this season!

He got a high evaluation of the Jazz team.

In addition to this, there is also a prompt to complete the task.

"The blooming rose series of missions: Division hegemony, completed.

Congratulations to the host for receiving the reward: random attribute +1, which has been automatically used."

"Congratulations to the host for obtaining attribute points: bounce +1, and the host bounce has been increased from 87 to 88."

The system screen switches to its ability evaluation, and the bounce flashes, which has become 88, and the additional bounce speed evaluation afterwards has also increased from 76 to 77.

Good luck!

When the bounce also reaches the first-class level, there is no difference in the probability of drawing the five technical attributes: speed, strength, bounce, physical strength, and flexibility.

Speed ​​and bounce are the attributes he wants to draw the most now.

Listening to the cheers of fans who still couldn't stop after the game, Liu Xiu looked at the big screen, and posted the ranking of active players in a single season of 40+ times.

With 40+ in three quarters tonight, Liu Xiu's record of 40+ times this season has reached 17 times, tying Iverson, the second-placed active player, second only to Kobe's 19 times in the 202-03 season!

There are 4 games left, the opponents are the Nuggets, Mavericks, Suns, Lakers, and Liu Xiu's mouth is upturned.

Previously, when people discussed the number of 40+ times in active-season single season, they all said that he could tie Kobe. The analysis was that whoever he played against could win. Among them, playing against the Jazz was a game that people thought he could not get 40+ times.

However, he played against the Jazz in the first three times this season, averaging 34 points per game, higher than the average score of the season!
Chapter completed!
