Chapter 218(2/2)
Although the Trail Blazers made a charge later and scored 14 points in the first half, the Mavericks also scored 14 points.
In the end, after a fierce battle, the Trail Blazers lost to the Mavericks 88-92 and watched the Mavericks win their 5th consecutive victory.
Liu Xiu had 21 points, 9 rebounds and 6 assists, Randolph had 26 points and 13 rebounds, Raheem had 16 points, and the Flying Squirrel had 13 points and 4 assists... They were defeated by the Silver Horn King's 30 points in a single game and Nash's 15 points and 9 assists.
With 50 wins and 20 losses, the Trail Blazers suffered their 20th loss of the season!
The fans at the scene were very sorry that they could not make a comeback at the last moment, but they still cheered and applauded the players.
It was already obvious when we played against each other last time that the Mavericks after the trade were on the same level as the Kings, Lakers, and Pacers at that time. It was not easy for them to maintain the lead for a long time tonight.
But unfortunately, facing the Mavericks' sudden change of style of play and Nowitzki's 10-point half-quarter strength, they failed to make timely adjustments. When they made adjustments later, it was already too late.
But Trail Blazers fans are patient! They have already tied last season's record.
With 1 win and 3 losses, they also gave the players the greatest support!
As for their current adjustment direction and new style of play, any fan with some experience watching football will know that once the adjustment is made, the probability of winning in the playoffs will definitely be greater!
Of course you have to support it!
There are benefits to changing fans. Although today's fans remember the glory of reaching the Western Conference Finals in the playoffs 4 years ago, they will not use that as an excuse every day. They do it because the current Trail Blazers players gather together to support the Trail Blazers.
Trail Blazers, they look forward to the Trail Blazers they support playing their own glory!

After the game, during physical therapy time, the coach and the chief assistant sat next to Liu Xiu, who was patiently undergoing therapy, chatting.
No matter how many times I watch it, I still find it incredible that a rookie patiently undergoes a complete set of physical therapy after every game like an old man.
The content of the conversation was naturally about tonight's game.
Losing, they still gained a lot tonight. They verified that some defenses are effective, some defenses are taken for granted, and they learned which defensive strategies will work well if they encounter the Mavericks in the first or second round.
Then we talked about the collapse in the first half of the fourth quarter...
As soon as Kevin Plitcha reached this point, he took the blame first, saying that he didn't adjust properly.
Liu Xiu comforted the hard-working chief assistant: "Actually, we defended very well up front, but their changes were sudden, and Nowitzki's shots were too accurate. There was nothing we could do."
The chief assistant coach shook his head: "Actually, there is a way. A truly outstanding defensive coach can discover possible changes in the opponent's lineup when the opponent adjusts his lineup, and come up with corresponding strategies to tell the head coach that he cannot expect his opponent to shoot.
Not to score, but to take the initiative to eliminate hidden dangers, this is playoff defense."
"..."
The chief assistant coach still loves to get into trouble... Liu Xiu was speechless for a while and said: "Coach, I think your defense is well done!"
Maurice Cheeks nodded: "Kevin's defensive system is very good, and I am very good at it, but our defensive end is not very good at adjusting on the spot, and we are not really top defensive coaches. In the past, we
The players are aging and I didn’t think about developing in this direction. Now it seems that I have to find a top defensive assistant coach..."
Top defensive assistant coach, easy to say!
Liu Xiu wanted to complain, but think about their Trail Blazers...
That is to say, their boss is not as interesting as Dolan. He has no intention of inviting Lenny Wilkens, Larry Brown, Isaiah Thomas and others back to be the head coach in turn. If they want to do it, their boss can definitely do it.
Get it and have more fun.
Money making ability is strong!
Liu Xiu was slandering and being called out.
"Warden, do you have a defensive coach you want to bring in? Your head coach at Syracuse University is very good. How about poaching him?"
Maurice Cheeks means what he says.
The chief assistant coach heard it and what the coach said was true.
The recent trends in the team made them both very excited and happy. They endured and endured, and finally, relying on their record, they made the boss change his mind! Persistence paid off!
Liu Xiuying said: "He? He has to be the head coach before he is willing to leave the university."
Maurice Cheeks was stunned, waved his hands, and ignored the question just now.
"But I do have a candidate!"
"Who? You want to steal my position as head coach again!" The coach said cautiously.
"Jeff Bzdelik."
"Who?" The coach didn't know him.
"Nuggets head coach." The chief assistant coach is well-informed.
"Is it great?" the coach asked.
"He is very powerful, but he is the head coach." The chief assistant coach felt that it was unreliable.
"I heard that he is dissatisfied with the contract given to him by the Nuggets. He has never signed a formal contract and is still receiving the salary of an assistant coach. He is similar to Chris. He is more interested in money than being a head coach." The warden opened his eyes.
As soon as these words came out, the two coaches’ eyes lit up!
Salary is easy to say!
