Chapter 209 208. Happy time before hell mode (5th update, additional update if you buy 200 monthly tickets)
The major media hyped up the "rookie breakout month", but the benefits ended up falling on Liu Xiu.
The media hyped this up on Monday, and Liu Xiu had a triple-double that day.
By Wednesday, when this topic was completely fermented, Liu Xiu had two consecutive triple-doubles, and the number of triple-doubles this season reached 8, surpassing Magic, and taking the second place in the rookie triple-doubles list!
Magic Johnson joked in an interview: "Jerry and Mickey really made a mistake. Warden is great. He still has 20 games to play. Maybe he can surpass Big O and become the number one player in history."
Many people heard Magic talking about Jerry and thought it was Lakers owner Jerry Buss.
Big O also followed the magician's words in an interview: "I also think the warden can surpass me. He can call me and I will teach him how to get a triple-double."
Big O ranks first in history in triple-doubles in his rookie season, with 26 times.
When these popularity are added together, it is really no lower than when Liu Xiugang won the All-Star votes!
Moreover, compared to the All-Star vote-getter, this time the popularity was truly earned through performance.
At the beginning of the game between the Trail Blazers and the 76ers, when people saw Iverson wearing a suit, many fans did not pay in advance to make reservations. When it came to the live broadcast, fans who watched a few minutes of the preview stage before paying did not watch. The ratings
Very depressed.
But after Liu Xiu had 8 points, 6 rebounds and 7 assists in the first half, the ratings continued to rise from the beginning of the third quarter, and they were still rising in the fourth quarter... He started to brush up the data in the fourth quarter, and it still rose? Of course it rose! Rookie, eh, brush up the points.
What happened to the data?
Is it possible to get a triple-double as soon as you can? Why don’t you see another rookie get one?
Even though we lost the game, we still had something to say. We got a triple-double of 20 points, 11 rebounds and 12 assists, and we still won the game!
When other rookies saw Liu Xiu's two consecutive triple-doubles, they started to slander him again.
And a certain player who decided to grab the best of the week and not give Liu Xiu a chance, who never passed the suit again, was lucky that he didn't say it out loud because he was afraid of being beaten... No, he was afraid of another fight, otherwise he would be really embarrassed.
.
Two consecutive triple-doubles are just like that back-to-back triple-double. Even if Liu Xiu doesn't play in the next game this week, the best of the week is almost guaranteed!
…
After two consecutive away games, Liu Xiu flew back to Portland with the team on the morning of March 11. Next, he had back-to-back home games against the Magic and Clippers.
He heard that because of his performance, their team's remaining 20 games this season will be guaranteed to have 5 additional live broadcasts. In addition to the originally scheduled finale game against the Lakers away from home, there will be 6 out of 20 games.
live streaming.
Not counting the Knicks, other teams are second only to the Lakers, who have added 8 live broadcasts of the remaining games, and are tied for second place with the Kings.
Liu Xiu received the signal - the media's attitude towards him changed!
When he got on the plane, he took a bunch of newspapers and read...
"The warden's three consecutive doubles are just good luck..."
"The Warden can only get a triple-double against a bad defensive team..."
"Warden..."
"..."
"The one who rides the horse!"
Almost all the news Liu Xiu saw was from this angle.
Then, he breathed out the fragrance.
Has your promised attitude towards him changed?
Wanting to have a good relationship with the warden, the 96th overall beauty show saw Liu Xiu looking unhappy. She came to the corner of the back row next to Liu Xiu and asked, "Warden, what happened?"
Liu Xiu casually talked about the situation.
Rahim laughed and said: "This is just their way of operating. I think they don't want to give up the fans who attack you, but they also want to make money from the fans who like you, so they will continue to write like this, and maybe more.
Cruel... think about it, if the news was all about praising you, would you still watch the news every day?"
Liu Xiu thought about it, yes!
The day before yesterday, he was very excited to read the news praising his triple-double, but when they continued to praise him yesterday morning, he had no desire to read it.
If you praise it, it will be the same, and the content you spray can be updated every day.
Think about it, AJ is creating a 'Warden' series of signature shoes. The promotion is much greater than that of the 'General' series. Although the word 'warden' is used, it doesn't mean Prison Warlord... but it also values him more.
aspect of heat.
What else could Liu Xiu do?
He had no choice but to be bullied by others. He was too kind and could only tolerate such things...
…
…
Did the shooting guard era really exist?
When Liu Xiu came to this world in the summer of 2002, whether it was from the memories he received or from what he saw with his own eyes, there was no such thing as the "four shooting guards" in the United States.
In the 2000-01 season, four of Iacokamai were selected as All-Star starters at the same time, which caused a wave of shooting guard craze. Except for the first year of Jordan's comeback in the 2001-02 season, these four people have been selected as All-Star starters at the same time three times in the past four years.
, the American media has discussed them together quite a lot.
If they continue at this pace, they are currently in the prime period of their careers, and it is unlikely that they will really be able to claim the title of the "four major shooting guards", just like the four major centers back then.
However, even though the four of them are all in the prime of their careers, the news that can be heard this year is - Kobe, Kobe, Kobe.
When it comes to Iverson, it’s injuries.
When it comes to Carter, it's still a dunk.
Speaking of McGrady...
Liu Xiu looked at the man who did not appear across from him, feeling a little disappointed.
McGrady has been scolded this year for being a loser, being disloyal, and having a lot of injuries... So far, McGrady has missed 10 games due to a back injury.
There are three tragic points among the four shooting guards.
Even before the era of the so-called four shooting guards, there are already signs that the four major shooting guards will become homeless.
After returning to Portland for a night's rest, on March 12, the Trail Blazers faced the Magic, their first back-to-back home opponent.
Liu Xiu's triple-double was out of the question in this game. The Magic didn't defend against double attacks at all. It was much easier for Liu Xiu to score than to provide assists. Of course he scored more points.
The score of the four quarters was 32-25 in the first quarter, 25-27 in the second quarter, 24-14 in the third quarter, and 31-27 in the final quarter.
Liu Xiu made 8 of 17 shots from the field, including 3 of 8 three-pointers, plus 5 of 6 free throws, scoring 24 points, 6 rebounds, 2 assists and 1 steal.
The top scorer was Randolph with 26 points and 9 rebounds, 8 of 12 field goals, and 10 of 13 free throws.
Rahim's offensive synergy is getting better and better. He and Outlaws, Miles are discussing with each other how to become a qualified small forward for the Trail Blazers. The two high school students are miserable. They can do it. Rahim is casual.
It can be done by just adjusting it, and it's even better.
Just on defense, Rahim is really too rough. After almost 8 seasons, it feels like he has never learned defense... No, compared to the outlaw who just started his rookie season who has never learned defense, Rahim is better.
It's rough, and the defensive habits have broken down.
But Raheem is really good at attacking. He made 8 of 12 shots tonight, including 1 of 1 three-pointers, plus 3 of 4 free throws. He played 21 minutes and scored 20 points, 4 rebounds and 1 steal. The efficiency was astonishingly high.
.
Against the Magic team without Tracy McGrady, even if Raheem was playing without the ball, he would still be chopping up melons and vegetables when receiving shots or attacking the basket.
…
Some people want to win, but they just can't.
Some people, even if they want to lose, cannot do as they please.
The Clippers' current record is 20 wins and 44 losses, tied with the Wizards for third from the bottom in the league.
If they reach this level, the Clippers are obviously not satisfied with this ranking, they want to get worse.
Compared to previous years, they have a clearer draft target this year - a high school player.
When the Clippers played in Chicago in the East this season, coach Mike Dunleavy and general manager Elgin Baylor went to watch a game at Peoria High School in Peoria, next door to Chicago.
Elgin Baylor said that kid was like a high school student he missed and couldn't miss this time.
Baylor is not good at other things, but its draft vision is still very good. Mike Dunleavy wants to lose now, and it is impossible to make the playoffs anyway, let alone the playoffs. If they don't adjust the lineup, they can't even cultivate a winning culture.
arrive.
Against the Trail Blazers, who are still ranked second in the Western Conference, Mike Dunleavy feels he has nothing to worry about.
The two teams tied 44 to 49 in the first quarter, with the Clippers in front and the Trail Blazers behind.
But at the beginning of the third quarter, the situation suddenly changed! Brand went berserk, scoring 17 points on 8 of 11 shots in a single quarter, leading the Clippers to 28 points in a single quarter, while the Trail Blazers only scored 16 points, and the score has not yet been announced.
Rand has many people.
After three quarters, the Clippers led the Trail Blazers by 7 points, 72-65.
