Chapter 298 298. You are my god! (Updates will be added if you reach 100,000 recommendation votes)

Although they lost Boozer, they got Gooden, who was picked higher in the 2002 class, so they can comfort themselves.

Coupled with James' incredible progress... Liu Xiu's speed of improvement surprises his team, and James surprises his team.

A new season, a new atmosphere, the opening game, the Cavaliers came to Portland with ambitions and expectations.

However, Liu Xiu's bloody hat that rushed across the court suddenly shattered the morale of the Cavaliers who were stretched to the limit after James chased the big hat!

Young teams can easily gain momentum and be defeated easily.

Although James worked very hard and fought hard to score points, the Trail Blazers clearly had the upper hand.

Halfway through the first quarter, the Trail Blazers led the Cavaliers by 7 points 17-10 and entered the official timeout.

Liu Xiu had 6 points, 3 rebounds, 2 assists and 1 block, and Raheem had 6 points. The two of them beat the Cavaliers.

However, being ahead is not the happiest thing for the Trail Blazers coaching staff. What they are happy about is the defensive performance of the players, their ability to adjust independently, and the confirmation of one thing - confrontation without the ball is not as strict as with the ball!

During the preseason, the ‘no hands allowed’ rule was applied equally with or without the ball.

Now there is a clear difference, the off-ball confrontation is obviously much looser.

This is normal. If you keep calling like that without the ball, the game will not be played.

Actual combat has confirmed this, and Bzdelik will have more room to operate in terms of strengthening defense!

Putting this aside for now, after the players returned to the bench, several coaches quickly confirmed each other's thoughts, and Maurice Cheeks began to make adjustments to the inter-section rest.

After adapting to the new rules and adjusting defensively, he was one step ahead of his opponents. Maurice Cheeks had another bold idea!

The warden who was eating candied haws on a stick was called over. Seeing the bold coach rubbing his chin, the immature warden felt bad...

…

After the timeout, the Cavaliers attack.

Liu Xiu glanced at the little flying squirrel following Wagner, the outlaw gangster following Lucios Harris, Kwame Brown who was not losing in a hand-to-hand fight with the tractor Robert Traylor, and then followed Gu

Rahim of Den.

Why?

Why did things turn out like this?

The personal data is good and the team is leading, which should be double happiness.

Why are you reduced to guarding James?

Why did you agree to the bold coach’s suggestion?

have a look!

The eyes of this No. 1 pick in the same session were gleaming when he pushed forward!

Facing Liu Xiu's defense, James accelerated his breakthrough!

Liu Xiu immediately put aside his distracting thoughts and defended well. He tried his best... but could not stop James from rushing in.

But! Liu Xiu’s confrontation had a greater impact on James than Reuben Patterson!

James enters the paint a beat or two slower, while Raheem and Kwame Brown double-team to help defend faster.

The slow pace of one or two beats has a great impact. James passes the ball to Gooden, and the little flying squirrel steals! Liu Xiu reacts sharply, runs forward, receives the pass from the little flying squirrel, and counterattacks!

James caught up with Liu Xiu again, and his physical fitness was outstanding. Liu Xiu rushed to the opposite basket and distributed the ball. The little flying squirrel caught the ball and hit a layup behind James.

It started smoothly and everything went smoothly. The Trail Blazers' adjustment ideas were right and they were executed smoothly. Their advantage grew like a snowball.

When the Cavaliers attacked, watching Liu Xiu take a step away, James was under great pressure.

Reuben Patterson's defense is definitely better, but if you just want to delay James' breakthrough, Liu Xiu is really more suitable.

James' heart skipped a beat, he smacked the ball, stepped back, and shot a three-pointer... and it went in!

13 to 19, James narrowed the point difference to 6 points!

James had a three-pointer early on, and Liu Xiu knew it. He actually made the shot and it went in, and he recognized it.

But James took this step back... he really looked up to him, the warden.

When the Trail Blazers attacked, Liu Xiu missed a jump shot from the right side of the free throw line.

Offense and defense transition, the Cavaliers attack.

Facing James, who had just scored a three-pointer, Liu Xiu still stayed one step inside the three-point line.

James made another three-point shot...

Ironclad!

The Cavaliers did a good job of retreating. Liu Xiu did not counterattack, but fell into a positional battle. The little flying squirrel broke through with a cross-step and then hit a three-pointer with a step-back. It taught James what a step-back three-pointer in isolation is!

The score difference was widened to 9 points again!

The Trail Blazers' current style of play is very unstable. The defensive end is flanking James and guarding the basket. If the Cavaliers' wing really misses the shot, they may be defeated in one or two shots.

But isn't it true that the Cavaliers' wing players shot inaccurately after confrontation?

If you can counterattack, then counterattack. If you can't, just fight back. The game goes on and on, and the point difference widens completely.

The more James plays, the lonelier he feels and the more he feels like he is fighting alone.

It would be better to change the opponent.

This feeling is too strong when facing Liu Xiu!

Every time I fight against Liu Xiu, I feel more envious and jealous.

The Trail Blazers' style of play is very determined and their execution is excellent. No matter whether the Cavaliers' wings perform well or not, they stick to their style of play.

In the first quarter, James could still lead the team to hold on to the score without being beaten, but in the second quarter, the Trail Blazers gradually widened the point difference...

…

James wanted to counterattack and played very hard, but the Cavaliers were not as strong as the Trail Blazers, their coaches were not as good as the Trail Blazers, and they were not even as good as the Trail Blazers.

Liu Xiu played 31 minutes in the game and was replaced after playing 3 minutes in the final quarter.

Making 9 of 17 shots, including 1 of 1 three-pointers, and 6 of 6 free throws, Liu Xiu scored 25 points, 9 rebounds, 7 assists, 1 steal, and 1 block.

Originally, the coaching staff also wanted Liu Xiu to give it a try in the first game of the new season, but it was a bit far behind. After 3 minutes without an assist, Liu Xiu was replaced, leaving the Flying Squirrel and Derek Anderson to lead the team.

next time.

In the end, the Trail Blazers defeated the Cavaliers without bloodshed 111-96 and won the opening game!

Randolph had 12 points and 8 rebounds, Raheem had 15 points, Flying Squirrel had 18 points and 5 assists, Kwame Brown had 12 points, 7 rebounds and 3 blocks... Liu Xiu's 25 points in a single game was the highest for the Trail Blazers, but it was not

The highest in the audience.

James played 41 minutes and made 10 of 21 shots, including 1 of 3 three-pointers, plus 9 of 11 free throws. He scored 30 points, 6 rebounds, 7 assists, 2 steals and 1 block.

Whether it's data or actual performance on the court, James gives people the feeling of fighting alone.

As long as their open three-pointers are more accurate, they really have a chance to win. However, the rest of the Cavaliers made 2 of 10 three-pointers and stopped shooting after that. They really couldn't make any shots.

James himself felt the same way. After losing, he walked into the tunnel silently and lost his former energy.

It's just that this thing itself is a very strange thing.

On Liu Xiu's side, he got an A+ rating in the opening match and got 850 healing points. He got a random attribute for the task 'New Starting Point' and 3000 healing points for 'Lord of the Era'. He was in a happy mood and was waiting for a post-game interview.

The performance of both the individual and the team was very good. Liu Xiu looked at the golden pair of Barkley and Kenny Smith walking towards him and quickly thought about how to show off... Ah, no, how to tell the truth.

When Buckley came to Liu Xiu, Liu Xiu had already thought of ten thousand ways to change the subject to telling the truth, and was waiting for Buckley to pick up the microphone and ask...

Liu Xiu didn't hear the question, but heard Buckley confess loudly: "Warden! You are my god!"

You are the most genius genius in my mind!"

Under Liu Xiu's stunned expression, Buckley turned around and left. What a shame!

But after taking two steps, Barkley realized that just saying these two sentences would make people feel that he couldn't afford it. He stopped and turned back to Liu Xiu's camera.

"Warden, what do you think my avatar looks like...yes! Basketball!"

As soon as Liu Xiu came to his senses, he was tricked by Buckley again - did I answer?

Buckley's expression, demeanor, and tone were all full of pride: "I will keep this hairstyle forever, and I will keep my bald head for myself!"

…

…

O'Neal scored 23 points, 22 rebounds, 2 steals and 4 blocks in his Heat debut, leading the Heat to a narrow victory over the Spurs 94-91.

Kobe, who is about the same size as Artest, beat Anthony to pieces, scoring 31 points, 6 rebounds, 6 assists, 3 steals and 2 blocks, leading the Lakers to a 108-99 victory over the Nuggets in the opening game.

Ray Allen hit a three-pointer and the SuperSonics defeated the Warriors 105-103.

James can't defeat the warden who has many soldiers on his own.

None of these became the hottest things on the first game day of the NBA's 2004-2005 regular season.
