Chapter 871 871. The first triple-double game!

It's not much different from what Liu Xiu expected.

Nowitzki relied on increasing his off-ball play and reducing singles to play again after two years of adjustment.

However, after the intensity of the playoffs was increased, it was still not enough to watch.

For the Mavericks, what they need in the playoffs is Nowitzki who can throw the ball into a single, not a pitcher, and they have too many pitchers.

However, Nowitzki can now rely on playing without the ball to ensure efficiency, and with the guarantee, he can start to truly change his singles style.

Liu Xiu guessed that Nowitzki would adjust his playing style earlier than in the original time and space.

After reading the newspapers compiled by Qing'er and Anne Hathaway, Liu Xiu discovered something.

They are the last team in the West to advance, and they are really not used to it.

When the Pistons and Nets play seven-game tiebreaker, the Spurs and the Suns will kick off the second round.

Their Trail Blazers will face the Lakers challenge on the 8th, with only two days off.

Taking back his attention from other teams, Liu Xiu analyzed the situation he encountered in the first round... They played well, and the Nuggets' two singles maniacs would have a headache when they encountered it.

However, this series with the Nuggets gave him a goal - to improve single defense!

It is not possible to ask Ray Allen to make the defense better.

When the opponent has two defensive masters on the outside, he needs to make more contributions on the defensive end.

The summer plan is gradually becoming clear!

…

I played against the Lakers in the playoffs for the third time in 4 years. I am very familiar with it and I am familiar with it when preparing for the game.

But the entire Trail Blazers team is more cautious than the first round preparation stage.

The Lakers have a guy who scores more than the miners and both guns - Kobe Bryant!

It was May 7th, and at 9:58 pm, the Pistons and Nets decided to win.

Relying on Yao Ming's 23 points, 13 rebounds, 3 assists, 1 steal and 2 blocks, Carter's 30 points, and Billups' 12 points and 8 assists, the Trail Blazers narrowly defeated the Nets 97-92, won the tiebreaker battle and advanced to the second round!

After watching the live broadcast, Liu Xiu breathed a sigh of relief. McGrady made 14 of 29 shots tonight, including 7 of 11 three-pointers, and 10 of 13 free throws to score 45 points, so she almost brought the Nets to the table.

However, the gap in the inside strength was too large, and the Nets still lost this point.

In the inside of the Nets, except Kostic, it is difficult for others to score in double-digit points in one go. Only 5 players in the seven games scored in double-digit points in the inside.

I can only say that the Nets' title of "strongest outside line" was not for nothing.

But, in the summer of 2005, the Nets did not send Richard Jefferson out for center, which was the key to their inability to go further.

The Eastern Conference inside line was not particularly strong in the 2004-05 season, but O'Neal and the Pacers were difficult to deal with. At that time, Wade had not yet grown up. After the Pacers won the championship, the lineup was aging and the Nets could handle it.

The insiders gathered in the back and ran to the east...

However, the Nets just reached the finals in the 2004-05 season. No one would be willing to leave the strongest outside combination.

Immediately afterwards, the game between the Spurs and the Suns began.

After 2 hours and 27 minutes of the game, the two teams decided to win.

Duncan played in the Suns' inside, making 14 of 22 shots, plus 5 of 8 free throws, scoring 33 points, 11 rebounds, 2 assists, 3 blocks, Parker scored 23 points, 7 assists, Ginobili scored 10 points, 4 rebounds, and 4 assists. The three-horse performs well.

But the Suns played better in the away game, with eight players scoring.

Nash scored 24 points, 2 rebounds and 15 assists, Little Overlord 37 points and 9 rebounds, Cote Thomas scored 14 points, 5 rebounds and 5 blocks, Marion 12 points, 7 rebounds, 3 assists, 3 steals and 1 block, Barbosa scored 12 points...

114 to 108, the Suns defeated the Spurs away and took away the home advantage.

The Spurs' semi-finished Spurs system met the Suns, who were the best at offensive, and was educated.

…

May 8, 2007, 7:30 pm.

In the Rose Garden Arena, the regular season MVP award ceremony began, and the fans on the scene shouted "MVP" in an orderly manner.

Delong's eyes were full of envy, and Wang Zhizhi was quite emotional. Odom was wondering if there were any ghosts in this stadium, he was afraid of ghosts...

Kobe tried hard to make himself look calm and irrelevant.

However, after the award ceremony, he still did not take the step forward to congratulate him.

Seeing Delong go to congratulate him happily, Kobe really wanted to pull the kid back and beat him up.

At 8 pm, the first game of the Trail Blazers' home game against the Lakers began.

Liu Xiu copied Ray Allen's "speed shot", Kobe's "stamina rush" and "serial killer".

He recalled the last year of his OK combination, and the extra talent he copied was the "center booster", which was much better than the "serial killer".

This talent is useless to Kobe.

Xiaopang was very useful at first, but later I don’t know if he was woken up by Kobe or accepted his fate, so the effect was not good.

He was looking forward to the trigger of the "Kaleidoscope" tonight, but Kobe was not included in the "Occurrence Kaleidoscope" type by the system...

After the game started, the two teams started offensive mode. Kobe played well. He made 4 of 6 shots in the first quarter, plus 1 of 1 free throws and scored 9 points, but the others were slow to enter the state. Delong passed the ball well, but the others failed to make the shot. Wang Zhizhi made 0 of 3, Odom, who came on as a substitute, made 2 of 5, and Delong himself only made 1 of 4... The Lakers only scored 23 points in the first quarter.

For the Trail Blazers, Liu Xiu scored 4 points, 3 rebounds and 4 assists, Randolph and Ray Allen scored 10 points in a single quarter with Liu Xiu's threat. The Trail Blazers scored 30 points in the first quarter, leading the Lakers 7 points!

Not long after 9587, Liu Xiu had just scored the highest active 55 points in the final game of the first round, and the Lakers' defense was a little shocked.

In the second quarter, the Lakers' defense still did not improve much. In this situation, the Zen master accepted his fate. He sent a combination of Delong, Kobe, Radmanovich, Odom, and Wang Zhizhi to attack!

Everyone is in good condition, Princeton is playing!

Kobe made 4 of 7 shots and scored 13 points and 2 assists, Wang Zhizhi scored 6 points and 1 assist, Odom scored 5 points, Radmanovic scored 7 points... The Lakers scored 37 points in a single quarter!

The Trail Blazers maintained extremely high stability in the second quarter. Liu Xiu scored 7 points, 2 rebounds and 4 assists, leading the team to score 29 points in a single quarter and scored 59 points in the first half. Unexpectedly, he was overtaken by the Lakers 60-59.

In the third quarter, the Lakers continued to work hard and beat the Trail Blazers two points 29-27.

Finally, in the final quarter, the Trail Blazers broke out!

Under Liu Xiu's organizational attack, Ray Allen scored 10 points in a single quarter, Randolph scored 5 points and 4 rebounds, and Blake scored 3 three-pointers in 5 minutes... The Trail Blazers scored 35 points in the last quarter, and curbed the Lakers' offense, and did not allow the Lakers to continue to soar, and scored a 35-29 single quarter score!

As Kobe missed a three-pointer against the extra-law madman, the game ended.

Relying on Liu Xiu's 22 points, 11 rebounds and 16 assists, Ray Allen's 34 points, Randolph's 24 points, Blake's 17 points, and Raheem's 13 points... The Trail Blazers narrowly defeated the Lakers 121-118 and won the first game of the series!
