Super All-around Point Guard

Reggie Miller is the greatest star in the history of the Pacers. It is a pity that he did not win a championship for this team in the 18 seasons of the Pacers, but this still does not hinder his greatness. His precise three-point shooting and the end of the game Performances such as the Miller moment are breathtaking.

Now is not the era of Reggie Miller, but there are still three-point shooters like him, such as Stephen Curry, such as Xie Chen in front of him, the times are developing, and the players are also improving. In his opinion, now Curry and Xie Chen are more powerful characters than him, only from three-pointers, and what Miller admires most is that Xie Chen not only shoots three-pointers, but is also versatile in other aspects.

"Tonight, will he explode again?" Miller looked at Xie Chen, and couldn't help but have doubts in his heart.

At the beginning of the game, both sides played very hard and entered the state very quickly. In the first few rounds, both the Heat and the Pacers were able to score wonderful goals. Everyone must know the importance of this game. No matter who it is, it is not just a simple victory or defeat, it will make the Pacers directly face the situation of whether to go home.

The 28-year-old CJ Miles finally broke out and made three-pointers consecutively in the first quarter. Facing Wade, he has an advantage in height, but Wade is more experienced, so the first two games made Miles very uncomfortable. , can hardly find the offensive rhythm, maybe it is a desperate fight, Miles shot very decisively tonight, once the opportunity is given, he shoots firmly, and every shot is accurate.

Wade's defense seems to be airtight, but in fact he still puts his strength into it, especially when defending against this kind of peripheral shooting. I prefer to guard against players who rely on his body to play offense with the ball.

CJ Miles' sudden three-point rain almost opened the score. Fortunately, the Heat team was full of fighting spirit when they came up. Erles responded with a change of direction and an easy breakthrough. When he reached the basket, he easily shook Miles up, and then hit the time difference and hit the board into the basket successfully.

Although Xie Chen didn't score 20 points in a single quarter like the previous game, it can be seen that he is still in a brave state. He used Kobe's fadeaway jumper to hit two consecutive goals at the free throw line, biting the score tightly. live.

After the first quarter, the Pacers had 20 points and the Heat had 19 points. The difference was only one point. The two sides fought very hard. This game really tasted like a playoff matchup. All the fans were very excited and nervous. The game has everyone's undivided attention. Fans absolutely enjoy the playoffs. They never hope that the Pacers, who have finally made it to the playoffs, can only play two games at their home court before leaving.

As Pacers players, each of them has a reason to fight for the fans and win a victory.

At the beginning of the second quarter, when the main players of both sides were resting, the substitutes launched a wonderful contest. The most eye-catching one was the Argentine star Luis Scola. Chinese fans are no strangers to him. At the age of 35, his scoring and playing time cannot be compared with those of the Rockets, but a solid and capable athlete, his age does not prevent him from contributing to the team.

Scola received the ball from a high position, looked at his teammates for no chances, faced Beasley's defense, raised his arms up, and made a gesture of aiming at the basket to shoot, Beasley immediately flew up, Scola relaxed Shake Beasley up, and then, after getting rid of the defender, dribble to the basket and easily pick the basket.

Xie Chen, who was sitting off the court, shook his head. Scola's fake moves are quite high, but the process of breaking through to the basket for a layup is too long. Scola does not have the speed of young athletes. If Xie Chen is on the court, Xie Chen He will definitely rush over to block Scola's layup. Seeing Scola make such an easy layup makes Xie Chen very uncomfortable. This also shows that the Heat's defensive players are loose.

However, Scola's performance was not over yet. When the Heat missed a score, the Pacers launched an attack again. Fortunately, the Pacers also missed a shot this time, but Scola, who went deep into the basket, was caught by two Heat players. Grabbing an offensive rebound on his head, Beasley and Birdman Anderson surrounded Scola tightly, preventing him from making a shot, but how could Scola, who was so close to the basket, give up this opportunity so easily? Beasley lightly hit Scola on the forehead, and Scola took advantage of the situation and threw the ball off the board.

Scored and blew an extra penalty!

"nice shot!"

There were cheers everywhere, and even Paul George off the field couldn't help standing up and cheering for his teammates, but Scola was just slapped on the forehead by Beasley, and now he fell to the ground, no wonder he was deceived. Free throw opportunities.

"This guy...is really better at acting than me. It looks like he's going to meet his opponent tonight." Xie Chen chuckled, and when it comes to performing flops, Scola is an actor-level figure, and Xie Chen has to show his respect to him. He is studying.

Scola made a free throw and scored 5 points in a row, opening the point difference to 6 points at once.

At this time, Spoelstra also had to prepare for the worst, preparing to let Xie Chen play to stabilize the situation, but when Wade was not on the court, the Pacers were not polite to Xie Chen's double-teaming, and would never allow Xie Chen to play. He scored casually, so Xie Chen didn't have many good scoring opportunities, and the Heat's shooting percentage in this quarter seemed to have declined, not as high as in the previous quarter.

And with the appearance of Paul George, the Heat fell further behind the Pacers, and suddenly stretched to more than 10 points. George's state today seems to be very different, without the previous hesitation and fear, facing Luol Deng's winding defense In the second quarter alone, Luol Deng received three fouls. Although Paul George scored 15 points in less than halftime, his shooting percentage was not high. , and the physical exertion is huge, it can be seen that when making free throws, he will take the opportunity to breathe in place for a while.

Paul George Xie Chen is not afraid. After all, even before he was injured, he was not the kind of super scorer who used points to save the team. The previous highest score in a single game was only 43 points. In his current state, George needs to score more than 40 points It may be possible to win, but it is absolutely unrealistic.

Compared with Paul George, Xie Chen is more worried about the performance of other Pacers players. Throughout the season, the Pacers have long been used to playing without George. They don’t need George to lead them. This is a scary point .

For some reason, Scola seems to be in a particularly good state today. Like other Pacers players, he made a decisive shot. He didn't worry about the consequences of failing to make a strong attack. Xie Chen made a dreamy step and made a layup with a low hand. Xie Chen wanted to rush over to block the shot, but unexpectedly, he took a slow shot and hit Scola's arm, giving him a chance to add a penalty!

"Okay!" Scola saw that the 2+1 was still won by the opponent's ace player, and couldn't help but clenched his fists and roared, and his teammates also came over to clap their hands one after another.

Xie Chen was completely helpless. When he couldn't score, he couldn't stop his opponent from scoring. This feeling made people feel like they were facing an abyss.

Once the bad luck starts, it doesn't go away so quickly. In this quarter, the Heat's overall shooting rate is terrible. If it weren't for Xie Chen's strong breakthrough layup and foul at the last moment, the Heat might have fallen behind the Pacers by nearly 20 points.

Just like that, at halftime, the Heat trailed by 15 points.

In the locker room, Coach Spoelstra has been giving confidence to his teammates. He said that the opportunities have come up, but they didn’t make shots. Rebounding, the important thing is how to stop the opponent's scoring. Now the Pacers' momentum is about to rise. Even if the Heat really rebound, they may not win in the end. Defense is an urgent matter for the Heat to solve.

The locker room of the Pacers home team has a completely different atmosphere. Larry Bird personally cheered for all the players and praised their performance in the first half. Paul George fought very hard in the first half, really He fought it out, and now he is gasping for breath with his bare upper body. This is the most physically exhausting game since his comeback, and the pressure is also unprecedented.

David West handed Paul George a bottle of water. Knowing George's dedication tonight, he was also very moved: "Paul, we will definitely win this game. Then, we will guarantee an unbeaten home game!"

George took a big sip of water and nodded: "That's right, we can only have a chance to win this series if we are unbeaten in these two home games."

The entire Pacers team seemed to feel that this victory was a sure thing. It was no wonder that people's confidence was so inflated when they played well, and since the big score was 0 to 2 behind, this sense of crisis that existed all the time would not let They are too inflated, so this kind of self-confidence is the safest and strongest.

Walking into the arena from the locker room again, Xie Chen felt pressured hearing the frenzied shouts. Is this what it feels like to play away games in the playoffs? Fortunately, the opponent was not a warrior knight, otherwise, Xie Chen might really be confused by these voices.

Xie Chen appeared on the court at the beginning of the third quarter. George Hill wanted to break through for a layup, but was slapped out of bounds by Xie Chen with a chasing cap. However, he was booed by all the fans.

"Call..."

The booing became louder and louder. Everyone, no matter men, women, young or old, pointed their lips at Xie Chen and booed hard, even made a little boy pee on the spot.

"What kind of all-round point guard! Go to hell! You are still defending so hard now, you go and see the score, boy, you Heat will lose!"

"Hmph, what's there to show off for a player who is shorter than Gaga himself? Judging by his posture, it seems that he still wants to get the score back. What a greedy guy, he wants to win us three games in a row? Who do you think you are! Even the Cavaliers It may not have this strength!"

Xie Chen just tried to block it once, but he didn't expect it to cause such a strong response from the scene, which shows how much the fans hope that the Pacers can win this victory. And Xie Chen is precisely the kind of person who is more exciting and powerful. The more exciting the fans are, the more crazy Xie Chen will be.

This time, the ball was passed to Scola, and Scola relied on hitting the defender. At the moment when he was about to make a shot, Xie Chen suddenly flew up, and then slammed the ball away vigorously!

Another block! The Pacers' two consecutive attacks were blocked by Xie Chen!

The last time Xie Chen blocked the block, the audience booed a lot, but this time, after less than 20 seconds, Xie Chen blocked the block again, and it was more domineering than the last time. The fans did not dare to boo again. The audience fell silent after blocking shots.

"What a scary...what a scary guy." Even Pacers fans had to admit that Xie Chen was scary! How could a seemingly weak No. 1 be so domineering!

But two punches are hard to beat with four hands, Xie Chen can't deal with a team by himself. In the third quarter, the mentality of the Heat's players changed drastically.

If the Heat players in the first quarter still wanted to win this victory in one go and enjoy the victory of the harvest series, then by now, everyone's hopes are all pinned on the next game. The reason is simple. The Heat are leading two games now, and there are plenty of opportunities. Since they did not perform well in this game, they will win the next game. There is no need to work hard in this game that is not very important to them.

Xie Chen glanced at Hassan Whiteside and Luol Deng. Even Wade couldn't see the determination to turn defeat into victory in Wade's eyes. However, a rookie like Xie Chen, who entered the playoffs in the first year, is particularly concerned. If 3-0 can ensure the series victory, why give the opponent a chance to counterattack?

One goes up and down, the morale of the Heat is low, but the Pacers are playing harder and harder, and "Gao Yuanyuan" Hibbert, who has never scored high, even started scoring consecutively!

Facing Hassan's defense, Hibbert's offense was very simple and decisive. He squeezed his body and made a one-handed throw. In this quarter, Hibbert even scored 6 points in a single quarter.

Hassan was very impatient. When fighting for rebounds, he fought more fiercely with Hibbert. On an offensive rebound, Hassan and Hibbert wrapped their arms around their arms and thighs against their thighs, and they jumped together. In this situation Now, Hassan's explosive power was severely limited, and he could only compare his height and weight. Hassan lost to Hibbert in this aspect, and was pushed far away by Hibbert's big hand.

Paul George was on the outside, the first to grab the basketball, and then quickly accelerated to the empty basket!

I saw that Paul George performed a dunk stunt that he hadn't seen for a long time in this fast break!

360-degree swivel dunk in the air!

The scene is completely crazy! Paul George staged this difficult dunk for the first time since his return from injury! And now, the Pacers have led by 18 points!

The Heat are in crisis!

The 2014-2015 NBA season is over, and our book has followed the real season all the way from the beginning of publishing. I believe many book lovers are also paying attention to this year's NBA and this year's finals.

In the last ten seconds, James planned to leave as soon as the game was over. When he shook hands with Curry and Cole in advance, I thought the season ended perfectly. The Warriors slapped all the experts in the face and won the championship by relying on long shots. When the era came, Curry got the rebound at the last moment and threw the ball high into the sky as excitedly as Wade in 2006.

No one denies the greatness of James, but as I said before, the success or failure of this year's Finals is crucial to his ranking in history. We might as well look back in three to five years.

In the absence of Irving Love, James played amazing statistics. I would rather award him the FMVP. There is no problem with Iguodala, but Curry did not receive due respect. 11 votes did not get one , even if he almost doubled the record for three-pointers in the playoffs.

Finally, I quoted a passage from Yang Yi: The new era will eventually come, and all Curry has to do is wait.

In addition, the arrival of next season is still very long, everyone always pay attention to the super all-round point guard, we start the next season ahead of schedule in the book! Next season has a super big surprise! Especially for old fans!
