I am the Warden Chapter 35: Run fast this time!
Should I pretend I'm not home?
Tianzun was hesitating when his wife appeared.
"Ah! It's Jace! So handsome! Rashid, what are you standing there for? Hurry up and invite him in!"
"Fatima, wait a minute..."
Before Tianzun could stop him, his wife Fatima Wallace had already pressed the door open button.
This wife is good in every way except that she is a nymphomaniac!
Being handsome doesn't necessarily mean you are a good person! You are throwing your husband off the edge of a cliff!
…
"Hi, I'm Jace, nice to meet you."
"My name is Fatima, I'm Rashid's wife and I'm also your fan!"
"I am so honored to have such a beautiful fan like you, but I am not very good at basketball. I have a lot to learn from Rashid."
"It's okay, it's okay. You are still young and have time to improve..."
"This is my sister..."
"My sister is so beautiful!"
"My sister is also very beautiful. I hope to have a perfect figure like her when I grow up."
"What a pretty and smart child. Sister has gained weight now. I hope she will have a better figure after she loses the weight..."
Liu Xiu and Qing'er exchanged greetings with Tianzun's wife Fatima. After that, Fatima came to the kitchen with a happy face, preparing some snacks and thinking about what to eat for lunch. She had to invite Liu Xiu and his sister to stay for lunch so that they could take a photo together and put it under so that she could show off to her sisters!
Tianzun knew that his wife would not cheat on him, he was just a crazy fan. And Liu Xiu didn't even want the "Porsche 365A as his wife", so he wasn't that kind of person.
But he is just jealous!
"Wife, don't be fooled by his handsome appearance, he has a bad temper! He will hit people!"
"I know, but he called me pretty!"
"...He might hit me, your husband! Yesterday, my teammates and I attacked him with a surprise attack."
"Oh, you seemed to have said yesterday that you would not go out alone in the future. So this is the reason. Then you better be careful and don't get beaten too badly."
"????"
Tianzun is in a bad state!
…
After Fatima prepared snacks and drinks for Liu Xiu and Qing'er, she left, ignoring Tianzun's look that said "I can't handle it alone if you stay."
Tianzun didn't expect that this guy would come to him...
"Rashid." Liu Xiu was the first to greet.
Here it comes! He was about to be beaten. Tianzun’s voice was a little trembling as he asked, “What’s the matter?”
"I have a favor to ask of you. Please teach me some skills!"
"I... um? ... ah? Teach you techniques?"
Tianzun, who had already planned how to escape if Liu Xiu suddenly went berserk, was unable to react immediately.
"Yes! The two of us will be suspended until the 8th. I'm bored and want to learn some skills. I hope you can teach me."
His attitude was sincere and his tone was one of pleading. He didn't seem to be angry about what happened yesterday, so... he wouldn't be beaten!
No!
Tianzun felt that Liu Xiu was so humble because he had something to ask of him.
As for politeness, Liu Xiu has always been very polite.
Don't agree?
No!
You have to agree! This way Liu Xiu will owe him a favor!
but……
"Jace, I'm the center and you're the point guard. You want to learn techniques from me? I can't teach you how to grow taller!"
When Liu Xiu heard this, he wanted to vomit blood. Qing'er next to him laughed out loud when he saw this.
Liu Xiu suppressed his desire to start a fight, and asked for help... He replied, "I learned my post-up play from Zach."
"You learned the post-up game from Zach... What? You learned the post-up game from Zach?" Tianzun was shocked!
But thinking back carefully, Liu Xiu's back-to-the-basket attack and Randolph's back-to-the-basket attack are really similar!
The only difference is that one is a point guard and the other is a power forward. Tianzun has never thought about it in this way.
Even if Liu Xiu and Dale Davis learn to help defend, it is not the same as this.
Putting away his surprise, Tianzun asked, "What do you want to learn from me?"
"Post-up singles," Liu Xiu has a clear goal: "I want to continue to expand my post-up singles. Zach's post-up singles are very suitable for me, but that is his post-up. I hope to learn from more post-up masters and find a way to make my post-up better."
Tianzun nodded and agreed.
Liu Xiu's words make sense and the Heavenly Lord is willing to help.
Also, he was very curious about one thing - is it true that some people can learn a skill just by looking at it once and master it by practicing casually?
"Great Magician:
Rapid learning mode is on.
Study subject: Rasheed Wallace.
Learning content: Post-up play (all-round first-class).
Healing value consumed: 3000.
Remaining healing value: 2432."
"Great Magician: Copy object 1: Zach Randolph, copy talent: low post single play. Training bonus: 80%. Copy object 2: Rasheed Wallace, copy talent: post single play. Training bonus: 50%. Copy object 3: ..."
…
The sun sets.
An old villa in the northern part of Portland.
In the yard, there was a lonely figure, seemingly swaying in the wind.
I looked at the car driving away and sighed, feeling as if my body was hollowed out...
There are actually people who can learn it just by watching it once!
This day was an eye-opening day for Tianzun, and it was also the day that his arrogance about being a genius was shattered.
Demonstrate technical moves, and the other party will learn them after watching them once; demonstrate technical details, and the other party will ask questions, practice, ask again, practice again... and will also learn them quickly.
Training methods, post-up concepts, details of on-court responses...
Not only did Liu Xiu already know how to do a low-post back-up, but he also learned the high-post back-up in the same way. It only took him one day! He had learned the basics of the back-up, and all he had to do was practice!
And I don’t know what’s wrong with that brain, he can remember the details of the training clearly!
Also, he found that his wife's love affair had become even worse... Tianzun entered a state of despair.
…
…
On November 3rd, the Trail Blazers will face the Grizzlies at home.
Liu Xiu and other suspended players were also called to attend pre-match meetings, prepare for training, and serve as sparring partners.
After finishing his work, Liu Xiu found the little flying mouse who had also finished his preparatory training and his work for the day was over.
"Warden, what do you want from me?"
Yesterday, the news of the "Rose Garden Incident" reached its peak, and it had a great impact on the sports circles of both China and the United States, but it was obvious that there was a hand pushing public opinion. Now in the United States, the heat of this incident is not so high. Of course, the Trail Blazers has become more notorious, and Liu Xiu also became famous in one battle. In North America, the nickname "Warden" can no longer be shaken off.
Liu Xiu learned from Bill Duffy that the situation in China was very lively, and the direction of public opinion surprised him...
Liu Xiu didn't want to bother with these things for the time being and just wanted to focus on his own things.
Hearing the little flying squirrel call him that, Liu Xiu was speechless for a moment and did not refute.
"Warden" is spelled warden, and some media use this word; but most media use kapo, which means "prisoner who manages prisoners."
The little flying squirrel uses the former.
This is a friendly gesture in terms of address, but in terms of communication, it remains the same as before.
Liu Xiu directly stated his purpose: "I want to learn technology from you!"
"Oh, I guessed right. You really want to learn technology from me. I heard that you have already learned technology from Derek, Dale, Rashid... Oh, and Zach."
Compared to Rasheed Wallace, the Little Flying Squirrel, who has a not that good relationship with Liu Xiu, actually knows Liu Xiu better. For example, Rasheed Wallace didn't know that Liu Xiu learned the post-up game from Randolph in the summer league.
Of course, this is not difficult to understand, it’s just that Rasheed Wallace doesn’t want to know Liu Xiu as much as his competitor, the Little Flying Squirrel.
After feeling proud for a moment, the little flying squirrel asked, "What do you want to learn? If it's about dribbling and breaking through, forget it. You and I are different types. My breakthrough relies on speed, and you're too slow."
"I know, I understand, just like you can't train your height."
"Do you still want to learn?"
"think!"
Liu Xiu was very satisfied when he saw the 90 points of healing value added.
It seems that when it comes to basketball, Flying Squirrel is quite obsessed with height.
The two times when the market rose by 99 points that night were more exciting, but unfortunately, it seems that it has "resistance" to it.
"Tell me, what do you want to learn!" The little flying squirrel became irritable.
"Attacking the rim, as a smaller player, how can you better avoid the defense and attack the rim."
"You have such a strong body, but your layup skills are just so-so. You should learn this. Okay, I'll teach you!"
After the little flying mouse responded, Liu Xiu's system prompt came.
"Great Magician:
Rapid learning mode is on.
Study subject: Damon Stoudemire.
Learning content: Breakthrough and attacking skills.
Healing value consumed: 500.
Remaining healing value: 2963."
"Uh... 500?"
"Damon Stoudemire's ability to break through the basket is lower than the average level of the league's point guards. The system has determined that rapid learning will consume 500 healing points."
"Forget it, forget it. Let's give it a try. It's just to learn from each other's strengths and make up for our weaknesses."
...An afternoon passed...
"The little flying squirrel has a lot of ways to attack the basket after breaking through and shooting from close range! He's really good! It's probably just his height that limits his performance in this area. With his height, it's already pretty good to have such a high shooting percentage under the basket."
"It seems that what I thought was right! When learning skills from a player, we should not only consider the performance on the court."
"The system's judgment is one thing, but the actual situation may be different... In this way, you also have to be careful that some things that look very powerful are actually techniques that rely purely on physical conditions. They may be expensive, but there is no use in learning them..."
Liu Xiu politely expressed his gratitude to Little Flying Mouse, his good teacher this afternoon, and then walked into the locker room while thinking about other things. He would take a shower, have dinner... They still had to get together to watch the game in the evening.
Even if you are suspended and cannot enter the stadium and have to wait in the locker room, you still have to go on the field.
After Liu Xiu left, another person with a hollowed-out body appeared in the training ground...
The little flying mouse looked up at the ceiling, trying not to let the tears fall: "I spent so many years practicing attacking the basket, working so hard to improve my hit rate a little bit, and this guy just learned it so easily!"
…
That night, the Trail Blazers played their third game of the new season at home against the Grizzlies.
The Grizzlies are on the rise this season!
At the beginning of last season, veteran coach Hubie Brown left the commentary booth and joined the Grizzlies as head coach at the age of 69. He temporarily took over the Grizzlies and immediately began drastic adjustments... and coaching.
The person being trained is White Chocolate Williams.
The training effect is great. Now White Chocolate has become a good point guard who can help the team win.
Jason Williams' performance tonight: solid ball control, accurate passing, and excellent defense.
But Liu Xiu in the locker room did not make any white chocolate-style passes throughout the game, with 6 assists and 1 turnover!
The Grizzlies played well and beat the Trail Blazers 104-89.
After watching the game, the staff gave Liu Xiu a report.
Randolph, who was watching the live broadcast, asked, "What is this?"
Liu Xiu replied: "The urine test report, and the lunch box residue test report... Eh? There are so many items in the urine test?"
Randolph leaned over to take a look and saw that all the test items were marked with "X", which meant that no problems were found.
But there are really many testing items!
Randolph asked, "I was also asked to take a urine test. I remember there were only 5 items in the report. You have more than 30 items. You are being targeted!"
Liu Xiu guessed what was going on, but he didn't say anything. He replied, "I think so. Being too handsome makes people jealous."
Randolph clenched his fists. Yes, he was jealous.
The butcher summoned the Heavenly Lord with his eyes, and the two of them were able to deal with Liu Xiu.
But Liu Xiu ran away!
…
…
On the 5th, the Trail Blazers started their last game of their 4-game home run and faced the 76ers.
Iverson has had many misfortunes this year. He was injured for four weeks at the start of the season and has suffered three consecutive losses. The current core of the 76ers is Big Dog Robinson. In the first three games, the 76ers averaged 83 points per game. Big Dog maintained his magic, scoring 23 points, 18 points and 22 points in the first three games respectively.
Tonight, the Big Dog continued to be what he is, shooting 8 of 19, including 1 of 3 three-pointers, plus 3 of 5 free throws, for 20 points.
The Trail Blazers finally ended their losing streak, defeating the visiting 76ers 95-88.
It is worth mentioning that the Flying Squirrel came on as a substitute tonight and scored 14 points, 2 assists and 2 steals in a single game.
After playing four consecutive home games, the Trail Blazers left Portland for Seattle on the morning of the 6th, and challenged the SuperSonics on the road on the 7th. This time, Randolph and Reuben Patterson returned.
However, the two's return failed to bring the Trail Blazers consecutive wins.
The Sonics started this season very well, currently with 3 wins and 1 loss. With the Trail Blazers missing Tianzun in the interior, Ray Allen and Brent Barry were very good at passing the ball, with Lewis and Radmanovic on the wings... The Sonics easily defeated the Trail Blazers 112 to 98.
The day after the game against the SuperSonics, the Trail Blazers returned to Portland and faced the Hawks in a back-to-back game alternating between away and home games.
Rahim made 13 of 25 shots, plus 6 of 7 free throws, scoring 34 points, 14 rebounds and 3 assists, leading the Hawks to a thrilling 92-88 victory over the Trail Blazers.
The Trail Blazers suffered two consecutive losses again, and started with 2 wins and 4 losses!
