   Chapter 985 985. Sprint Moment

  After playing the Spurs, the Trail Blazers ushered in an alternate back-to-back away game.

   On the evening of the 27th, the Trail Blazers came to Seattle and defeated the Sonics 114 to 97, winning their 50th victory of the season!

  Durant soared 31 points, 7 rebounds and 2 assists tonight. Liu Xiu stared at him. He made 11 of 29 shots, including 2 of 6 three-pointers, and 7 of 8 free throws...

   On Liu Xiu's side, the fire of the loss to the Spurs the day before yesterday was all cast on Durant.

   Both played 38 minutes tonight. Liu Xiu made 16 of 26 shots, including 6 of 10 three-pointers and 14 of 16 free throws. He scored 52 points, 13 rebounds, 6 assists and 4 steals.

  Durant felt the feeling that James faced McGrady back then.

   Powerless!

   Not knowing what to do at all.

  The same, he also had the idea of ​​'can I replace it'...

   Liu Xiu scored 50+ in a single game for the fourth time this season, second only to last season's 7 times, which is the second highest in a single season in his career.

  His 50+ times in a single game in the regular season came to 18 times, which is 7 times away from the number one Kobe.

  This season, Kobe has scored 50+ in a single game 3 times, and the total number of times has reached 25 times.

   On the 28th, the Trail Blazers returned to Portland and faced a challenge from the Wizards at home.

   Currently the Wizards are 37 wins and 33 losses.

  Jamison averaged 22 points per game and Peja averaged 19.5 points per game. The two played very well at the age of 30+...but Arenas was reimbursed at this time!

Although the Wizards were defeated by James in the playoffs last season, people felt that they had signs of taking off. As a result, Arenas, who had played at least 74 times in the past three seasons, was directly reimbursed for the season with a serious knee injury, while Ali Nas's six-year, $120 million contract won't start until next season.

  Wizards have a lineup with a super giant guard line that can compete for the championship. Now it is embarrassing. With the introduction of superstars, the space is blocked by Arenas.

Although there is no Arenas, the offensive firepower of the Wizards should not be underestimated. Tonight Jamison scored 19 points, 12 rebounds and 4 assists, Peja 22 points, 5 rebounds and 2 assists, Antonio Daniels scored 14 points and 8 assists, and came off the bench Andre Blatche scored 18 points and 10 rebounds... The Wizards team scored 105 points!

For the Trail Blazers, Liu Xiu scored 33 points, 6 rebounds, 14 assists and 2 steals, Ray Allen had 20 points, Kwame Brown had 6 points and 17 rebounds, Randolph had 17 points and 7 rebounds, Hill had 10 points, 4 rebounds and 3 rebounds. assists...

   Four of the Trail Blazers scored in double figures and narrowly beat the Wizards 112 to 105, improving their record to 51 wins and 21 losses!

  …

  Back to back, the Trail Blazers got two days off.

  Liu Xiu continued to practice more...

  After training, Liu Xiu watched the news. As in previous years, the news about the NBA, these two days are mainly about the "prediction of the season sprint stage" and news related to his warden.

  The news related to him can actually be counted in the topic of 'sprinting towards the end of the season'.

  The league is obviously using whether he can average a triple-double per game to fight against the NCAA and grab attention.

  For him, this is of course a good thing. If he finally averages a triple-double, he definitely wants everyone to know about it.

  Before the turtle enters the sewer, this data will inevitably be called a 'miracle'.

  Because his record here is not bad, he has already won 50 wins, and 55 wins is not a big problem.

   That’s right, 6 of the last 9 games have not scored double figures in rebounds, and the average number of rebounds per game has reached 10.2. There are 10 games left, so the pressure is not small!

  He flipped through the schedule in the team manual, and there was something, I don't know whether it is good news or bad news.

   In the last 10 games, 9 games were played against Western teams, and the last game with Eastern teams was the Bobcats game at home the day after tomorrow.

In the 9 games in April, the Warriors were played away on the 3rd, the Lakers were played at home on the 5th, the Grizzlies were played back-to-back at home on the 6th, the Mavericks were played at home on the 8th, the Spurs were played at home on the 10th, the Rockets were played at home on the 12th, The Hornets will be played at home on the 14th, the Lakers will be played at home on the 16th, and the Suns will be played away on the 19th.

  In the 10 games, except for the Bobcats, Grizzlies, and Kings, the worst of the other 7 teams is also a team competing for the playoffs, and most of them are teams that have record requirements.

   These teams, with a high probability, don't care whether he gets a triple-double or not.

  But the opponents are these teams, and the pressure on him to win is a bit too high...

  …

   On March 31, in the afternoon, Liu Xiu woke up and watched the second half of one of the NCAA basketball tournament semifinals, the game between the University of Memphis Tennessee Tigers and the UCLA Bruins.

   Rose VS Westbrook!

  Ross performed even better, and the Tennessee Tigers defeated the Bruins 86-79 to join the University of Kansas in the final.

   At 7:30 in the evening, the Trail Blazers ushered in a challenge from the Bobcats at home.

Tonight, the extrajudicial fanatics exploded, with 7 points in the first quarter, 11 points in the second quarter, 6 points in the third quarter, and 10 points in the fourth quarter. They made 13 of 23 shots, including 1 of 4 three-pointers and 7 of 10. Free throws, came off the bench and scored a game-high 34 points, plus 5 rebounds, 1 assist and 2 steals.

   Liu Xiu made 7 of 13 shots, including 1 of 2 three-pointers and 6 of 7 free throws. He scored 21 points, 13 rebounds, 16 assists, 2 steals and 1 block.

The most coquettish performance is not the extrajudicial fanatics and Liu Xiu, but Randolph scored 18 points, 18 rebounds and 6 assists in 35 minutes, and 10 offensive rebounds out of 18 rebounds, feeding the extrajudicial fanatics I ordered several cakes.

   Tonight, the Bobcats made 38 of 76 shots and scored 103 points with 50% efficient shooting performance. However, the Trail Blazers shot 95 times tonight, 19 times more than the Bobcats.

  The Trail Blazers won by rebounding 57 to 38,

  Relying on the outstanding performances of Liu Xiu, Outlaws, and Randolph, the Trail Blazers defeated the Bobcats 109-103, raising their record to 52 wins and 21 losses!

  …

   April 1st, the last game month of the regular season arrived.

  The Trail Blazers got two days off and will go to Oakland tomorrow. Today, Randolph and Kwame Brown took their teammates to play pranks on the street... Then Liu Xiu, McDyess, outlaws and others went to apologize...

  There is one more person who apologized this time—Grant Hill.

  Compared to Rahim back then, he was always a little rich and wealthy, the warden had a bad reputation, McDyess was unfriendly, and the names of outlaws were ambiguous...

  Hill joined the apology lineup, and the apology's persuasive power has greatly increased.

  But what really allowed them to spend the day safely was the boss' money-making ability.

In order to allow the players to spend April Fool's Day safely, John Nash gave the boss the VIP training field experience coupons of the Rose Garden Arena, vouchers for the arena restaurant, tickets with a good location, Willa The rental course experience voucher of the McGrady Garden Training Center... and other apology gifts.

  No matter how angry you are, the pranksters see these apologies that cost hundreds of dollars or even hundreds of thousands of dollars... What a big deal, it’s April Fool’s Day, everyone’s happiness is the most important thing.
