121. Arenas' counterattack!

But hasn't this mission been here? There is nothing we can do about it.

Liu Xiu focused on observing the game and prepared for himself to play.

On the court, after the second quarter began, the Wizards' style of playing changed - Princeton started!

When Arenas and Starkhouse were partnering, they played ball and when they were partnering with Larry Hughes, they played ball without ball.

At this time Arenas and Randolph were in a fight.

In the second half of the first quarter, Randolph scored 7 points and his personal score increased to 13 points. Arenas only scored 5 points in those 5 minutes. His personal score is currently 14 points, and he is about to be surpassed by Randolph. Although Arenas does not know that someone is urging Randolph to score with him behind his back, he cares a lot about this now.

After a while of fighting, Arenas competed with Xiao Feishe again. He is just a man who is fighting against the sky, the earth, and the air, and he has to fight with anyone.

When the second quarter was 8 minutes and 44 seconds, the score was 50 to 51. The Trail Blazers were 1 point behind the Wizards. The Trail Blazers called a timeout and lineup rotation!

In the past 8 minutes, the Trail Blazers and Wizards scored 18-20. Larry Hughes attacked with the ball, Arenas played without the ball and necessary singles, allowing the Wizards' Princeton to run smoothly.

When Liu Xiu was watching the game on the sidelines, he felt that the Wizards had a feeling of playing in the second round in the future.

Arenas and Larry Hughes are in good shape tonight.

But now, the opportunity for the Trail Blazers is here!

After the timeout, the Trail Blazers sent Liu Xiu, Ruben Patterson, Travis Otlow, Dell Davis, and Rashid Wallace.

The Wizards sent Steve Blake, Starkhouse, Larry Hughes, Kwame Brown and Haywood.

Blake, like Liu Xiu, is a rookie point guard and has good offensive ability, but after returning from the timeout, he only served as a wing pitcher, and he didn't have a shot in 3 minutes and 16 seconds. After halfway through, he would have nothing to do.

It was a disaster for Starkhouse and Larry Hughes to play together! The two took turns to play singles, but without Arenas' mediation, the two did not pass the ball to each other!

As for other teammates, Blake, ignores it; Kwame Brown, look down on it... Heywood is just a passer target, but Heywood's offensive talent is compared with Kwame Brown...

Kwame Brown, you don’t train him, look down on him, scold him, and do whatever you want. He averages 10+ points per game at the age of 21.

And Heywood, you can't even feed the ball if you try your best to average 10+ points per game.

So it's just two people playing singles.

This is the opportunity that the Trail Blazers have been waiting for. As a strong team of 50 wins, the Trail Blazers have a very high probability of being upset like the Wizards. Although they are not prepared for training, they are fully prepared for tactical and strategic!

After the Wizards' three big outside stars showed excellent form at the beginning, Morris Chicks has been trying to find ways to play an advantage, and at the same time, he is ready to play an advantage if he can't play an advantage before - waiting for Arenas to go down and rest, Starkhouse and Larry Hughes will be together!

As for whether the Wizards will only send one of the two when they are resting in Arenas?

Impossible.

Compared with most role players, even if you make a few random shots, the top-notch players are more accurate than those role players who are careful singles.

When the two of them are together, at least they can expect that they are in good shape to play against five...

Obviously not tonight!

In the last 3 minutes and 16 seconds of the first half, the Wizards only scored 3 points! And they were not scored in sports battles!

Tianzun protects the frame, Ruben Patterson defends Larry Hughes alone, Travis Otero interferes with Starkhouse's shooting, Dell Davis and Liu Xiu attack together to make up for defense, the Wizards only relied on Larry Hughes to make fouls and make both free throws, and Haywood rushed to an offensive rebound, causing fouls to make two free throws and scored 3 points.

During this period, the Trail Blazers scored a 9-4 score!

As Liu Xiu counterattacked with a buzzer-beating three-pointer in the first half, the Trail Blazers led the Wizards 59-55 and entered the midfield break with 4 points!

Liu Xiu walked towards the player channel with some regrets, and made 0 of 3 three-pointers tonight!

Looking at the '2003-2004 three-point shooting performance in the system: 15/51', tears were flying... the shooting rate fell below 30%!

‘If I had known the second person to learn the future history, what would I throw a buzzer-beating ball...’

Liu Xiu felt heartbroken when he thought that he had thrown such 99.99...there were at least six or seven three-pointers who were not able to score.

But next time he is given a chance, he will still choose to vote... What if he enters?

Back in the locker room, Liu Xiu took out a braised pork all-round nutritional lunch box and feasted...

“…

Gilbert Arenas: 20 points, 2 rebounds, 4 assists, 1 steal, 0 blocks.

Host: 5 points, 6 rebounds, 3 assists, 1 steal, 0 blocks.

…”

'My guys and I are both in difficulty in blocking the shot. The steal is like a free gift from the top pick in parallel. He can't catch up with the rebounds. The key is assists or steals! If he can't get the block, then I must win one of the assists and steals!'

In the first half, Liu Xiu played 13 minutes in total, grabbed 6 rebounds, and fought hard!

But he took the rebound and protected the ball, and he had a good grasp of the choice and timing of fast break, and his teammates were also helping him grab the board.

Randolph, like Arenas, played a little more than 20 minutes in the first half, scoring 18 points, 5 rebounds, 1 assist and 1 block.

After scoring with Arenas, Liu Xiu completely handed over to Randolph...

...

After halftime, Liu Xiu started together with Derek Anderson, Travis Otlow, Randolph and Rashid Wallace.

The Wizards survived the time that Arenas needed to rest and sent out a combination of Arenas, Juan Dickson, Starkhouse, Latner, and Kwame Brown.

The second half started, and the Trail Blazers, who lost the jump ball at the beginning, took the lead.

Liu Xiu pushed the ball to the frontcourt. The first choice was to give the ball to Derek Anderson. He, Liu, interspersed with the running position and responded... But before he reached the three-point line, Liu Xiu found the opportunity and passed the ball straight...

Randolph turned around on the baseline and bypassed Kwame Brown straight into the basket and received the ball and made a layup!

Kwame Brown chased the basket and did not push him up to interfere with the opportunity to get off the hat.

It can be said that it is to avoid fouls, but it can be seen that Kwame Brown's current defense is no longer excellent.

Liu Xiu already understands why Kwamei Brown’s defensive evaluation is 84…

61 to 55, the Trail Blazers' lead expanded to 6 points!

The offense and defense were converted, Arenas quickly advanced with the ball and came outside the three-point line. Before Liu Xiu pressed up, one meter away from the three-point line, Arenas stopped urgently, took off, and made a three-pointer...

Enter!

Arenas' personal score increased to 23 points, with a score of 58 to 61, and he helped the Wizards narrow the gap to 3 points!

Just now, Liu Xiu made a pass to Randolph. The TV station commentator, fans on the scene, and the Trail Blazers all believed that the Trail Blazers should rely on this good start to really make their advantage.

This sudden goal...

When the Trail Blazers attacked, Kwame Brown was scolded again just now. When the frustration reached the extreme, he was scolded again, which had a positive effect. He didn't want to continue being scolded, but he was scolded and followed even tighter when he was cutting into the bottom line.

Randolph did not have a direct scoring opportunity. Liu Xiu advanced over the half and did not pass the ball to Derek Anderson, and chose to break through the singles!

Arenas was overcome by Liu Xiu's breakthrough by relying on brute force and unexpected emergency stop and change direction, and Arenas continued to chase and defend normally.

Teammates quickly got used to Arenas's defensive characteristics that cannot be defended but actively defended and did not give up. Liu Xiu broke through to close range, Kwame Brown made the right way, Liu Xiu made the ball as soon as possible, and Randolph made an all-time layup!

It was Kwame Brown who beat it!

With Kwame Brown's height, wingspan, bounce, and defensive consciousness, he has the ability to block Liu Xiu and cover Randolph after blocking him, and may even threaten him by blocking him, making Liu Xiu's breakthrough useless.

But Kwame Brown seemed to have become Heywood at this moment, purely using his physical fitness and "activeness" to make up for defense, but if he gets stuck, he won't care about the back.

63 to 58, the Trail Blazers once again widened the gap to 5 points.

But then, Arenas took advantage of the three-point threat just now, and when Liu Xiu pressed up in advance, he pulled the ball and then stopped the direction, and broke through the inside line. He jumped out before Travis Otero's defense was in place in the middle. When Travis Otero's forearm hit Arenas' hand, Arenas had already thrown the ball out... The referee whistle sounded, and Travis Otero's foul was made.

Walking onto the free throw line, Arenasga also made the free throw!

61 to 63, while Arenas' personal score increased to 26 points, he once again helped the Wizards narrow the gap to 1 goal to tie or even overtake!

When the Trail Blazers attacked, Randolph received the second pass and gave it to Tianzun. Tianzun received the ball and made a two-pointer... he didn't make it!

Arenas' offensive threat has been raised to the extreme. A breakthrough attracted the outside and the inside defense movement. He passed the ball to Starkhouse on the sideline, and Starkhouse received the ball and made a three-pointer...in!

In 64 to 63, 1 minute and 40 seconds, the Wizards scored a 9 to 4 wave and overtaken the score!

This came too suddenly, and the Trail Blazers didn't even react and called a timeout.

When Morris Chicks wanted to call for a timeout, he saw Liu Xiu calmly receiving the serve and held back.

Now it is called a pause, which means it is directly stopped, which will have a huge blow to morale.

Arenas and Starkhouse, the two waves are competing, and this consecutive three-pointer is too exaggerated.

But it is not called a pause, it is a bet. If you enter, it is naturally very good and you can withstand the pressure.

But if this attack is not won, then the opportunity to be called a timeout will be gone, and the opponent may be hit by another goal! It may really collapse!
