93. Make them regret! (6000 words(1/3)
The next morning of the second game against the Lakers, the Trail Blazers set off from Portland and will start a 4-game series of away games in 6 days and 4 games tomorrow.
Today's destination is the Bay Area, San Francisco, and tomorrow we will go to Oakland next to San Francisco to play the Warriors.
Losing to the Lakers yesterday, the Trail Blazers players suffered a knowing blow.
But if you lose, there will always be something. After a night of sleep, it will be a new day.
If something is wrong, I will talk about the Lakers next time I meet them.
On the way to San Francisco, Trail Blazers players sat together to discuss several major events announced by the league this morning.
What everyone cares most about is the new competition system that the league voted a few days ago.
Starting next season, the Hornets will be merged into the Western Conference and the Bobcats will join the NBA. The four major competition areas of the league will also become six major competition areas, with five teams in each competition area.
west.
Northwest Division: Trail Blazers, Nuggets, Timberwolves, Jazz, Supersonics.
Pacific Division: Lakers, Clippers, Kings, Warriors, Suns.
Southwest Division: Spurs, Mavericks, Rockets, Hornets, Grizzlies.
east.
Southeast Division: Heat, Magic, Eagles, Bobcats, Wizards.
Central Division: Pistons, Cavaliers, Pacers, Bucks, Bulls.
Atlantic Division: Celtics, Nets, Knicks, Raptors, 76ers.
The rules for advancing to the playoffs also change the eight playoff teams in the division, which are composed of the top spots in each division + the five best-scoring teams among the other teams. The top spots in the division must rank in the top three in the division.
To be extreme, it is possible that a team's record ranks 11th in the East or West, and ends up in the playoffs.
The result of these changes is good or bad, and everyone has their own opinions, and everyone has a lot of discussion.
What everyone is sure of is that the changes in the rules of the competition area will have an impact on each team.
Also, the logic of the competition area is divided according to, which is also a hot topic for everyone.
Like their Trail Blazers, after playing against the Warriors, the remaining three opponents are three teams that are about to be divided into the Southwest Division, the Grizzlies, Rockets, and Spurs, but Memphis is quite far from Texas, unlike New Orleans, almost next to Texas.
If you have a good geography, you feel that Phoenix, which is equally hot in the weather, should be divided into the Southwest Division; Portland or Seattle should be divided into the Pacific Division...
When everyone was having a happy chat, Liu Xiu, who usually talked a lot, leaned against the window and looked out the window.
Seeing Liu Xiu's appearance, Randolph got up and went to Liu Xiu's side... and stopped again and pulled the Heavenly Lord together.
Tianzun sat next to Liu Xiu and said, "Warner, are you still thinking about last night's game?"
"Well..." Liu Xiu responded lazily.
“Compet Rating:
Game Type: Regular Season.
Basic reward: 500 healing value.
Playing time: 29 minutes.
Data: 2 of 9 shots, plus 1 of 1 free throw, 5 points, 8 rebounds, 3 assists, 3 steals, and 3 turnovers...
…
Congratulations to the host for receiving the reward: 250 healing value."
I took a look at the score of last night's game again, which was a bit painful.
But this is not the most painful thing, he said: "Last night's game, they gave me the feeling that they knew they would win, and we didn't have any way."
Randolph nodded and replied, "I understand how you feel, and I feel that way."
Liu Xiu rolled his eyes: "How could you understand my feelings? I lost the regular season for the first time in my life."
“…”
“…”
Randolph and the Tianzun didn't react at once.
After a moment of speechless, Randolph asked, "Do you care about this?"
"right."
"Cure value +88, from Zach Randolph."
"Healing value +91, from Rashid Wallace."
Is there anything more annoying than this? But what they are saying is the truth!
The Pistons were in the opening game, and the Kings were in the Kings after their comeback... Until they defeated the Bucks, they won all the first seven games of their warden's career!
Randolph and the Heavenly Lord were speechless for two more seconds, then looked at each other and reached out to Liu Xiu...
"What are you going to do... don't come over... there is a one-on-one fight!"
Randolph replied: "I have a son, so there is no need to prove that I have a kindness in this kind of thing."
Tianzun followed and replied: "I have a son and a daughter,"
"How do you know that your child is your child?"
"I've tested DNA."
"My son and daughter have tested DNA."
"Hao!"
These two people can even answer this!
Jiji...

On November 26, the first game day for the Trail Blazers' fourth consecutive away game arrived, and they came to the Auckland Stadium in Oakland to prepare for the game.
Kevin Pritcha didn't arrange any training today. Tonight's opponent is the Warriors. He either looks down on the Warriors... or looks down on the Warriors.
The Warriors have whatever they want, they have good coaches, good players, good lineup structure, and good market environment... but they don't have a brain-free management team.
Such a team is not the opponent in Kevin Pritcha's eyes. There is no need to prepare too much, and make targeted tactical adjustments to the opponent's skills and tactics, and then play on the court and it's done.
and……
He was very satisfied while wandering around the visiting team training ground and the gym! The team members were practicing more!
Except for that bastard...well?
Kevin Pritcha shook his head vigorously and looked closely, without any dazzling! Hell!
After a team training class in the morning, Liu Xiu didn't leave? But after a closer look, this kid was not training, but was teaching his teammates how to train!
"Madman, have you remember the skills of accelerating and stepping to hit the basket just now?... Finally, I remembered that I have taught you a few simple moves so many times. This is the direction of strengthening that I have discussed with the trainer. I can't remember me to beat you... If you practice more, you can enhance your efficiency when attacking the frame!
But you need to strengthen your basic skills. Your shooting at this point and this point gives me a good feeling. Don’t practice anything else first, don’t think about comprehensiveness, just practice shooting in these two areas. When you receive the ball, just jump up and shoot directly."
"Ah?" Travis Otlow kept nodding, shocked by his teammate's words: "Jump up and shoot directly?"
"Yes! You are so tall, with such a long wingspan, and with such a good bounce, just shoot directly in the area you feel good. Who can get you the hat?"
"Is that true?"
“Yes, that’s it.”
"oh……"
"You practice hard, don't be anxious about playing time and position. You can't practice basic skills all at once, and you can't be anxious about it. What you have to do now is to maintain regular training and then strengthen your strengths in a targeted manner... Really, haven't you taught you before? As a result, I have to find a way for you... I'll leave first."
"Warner, don't you train?"
"I want to train! I'll go to the gym."
"Practice fighting? You don't have to practice fighting anymore, are you going to fight a profession?"
“…”
Liu Xiu rolled her eyes, ignored the extrajudicial madman, turned around and left... Seeing the chief assistant coach Kevin Pritcha, he politely greeted him and walked towards the gym.
Kevin Pritt was in a good mood and added endless pain to this kid. He used to argue that he was practicing physical fitness, but now he doesn't hide it. He just defaulted on practicing fighting!

"The Warriors are really miserable! Warden, you said, if the Warriors used the No. 5 pick in 2001, what would happen now?"
"Their general manager will probably be fired on the night of the draft."
"It makes sense, but it's really a pity that Arenas is much better at leading the team than Richardson..."
At 7:30 p.m., at the Oakland Arena, the Trail Blazers away challenge to the Warriors started.
Liu Xiu and Xiao Feishe were talking about the right and wrong of the opposite team on the back of the Trail Blazers.
To be continued...
