Super All-around Point Guard

It seems that the Warriors really care about their opponent Xie Chen. They actually used such an unexpected "RIP PLAY" at the beginning. Under normal circumstances, the Warriors' ball will most likely come from Curry rushing to the three-point line. To get a shooting opportunity, defenders will focus on Curry, never expecting that the previously lazy Barnes would suddenly rush to the inside.

There is overlap between the route of Barnes' movement and the route of Xie Chen's defense against Curry. At this fork in the road, Xie Chen will face the choice of whether to continue following Curry or to chase after Barnes. If he is slow, Judging from the action, it is obvious that you have to stop Barnes from going to the basket. However, at that moment of quick defense, if you hesitate for half a second, you will miss the opportunity to block Barnes.

Xie Chen was still very decisive, because he had vaguely felt that the tactics this time might not be that simple.

Xie Chen intercepted the Warriors' tactic, which surprised Warriors interim coach Walton and shocked the entire audience, because as far as the fans were concerned, so many people were running at the same time, and the ball was far to the left. In the side area, many people were confused. They didn't know how the ball was passed to Barnes, and they didn't know how Xie Chen, who was guarding Curry, appeared behind Barnes!

"It's amazing! I can actually see the Warriors' tactics!" Those who had been mocking Xie Chen no longer dared to speak. Curry had never had such a defensive performance. Besides, Xie Chen was a copycat, and they themselves felt that Xie Chen was a copycat. Blushed.

Xie Chen took advantage of him as soon as he came up. Even Curry felt that the best defensive player this season might fall on Xie Chen.

Xie Chen has a chance to win the best defensive player award. Curry will definitely not have a chance, but Curry can compete with Xie Chen for another most important award, regular season MVP!

Last season, it was Curry who should have won the MVP, but was snatched away by Xie Chen. This season, Curry certainly wants to get the MVP back. So far this season, Curry has been beating Xie Chen in the official MVP rankings. Xie Chen, but the temporary lead does not make Curry feel at ease. Last season, so what if he led for the whole season, but was not counterattacked by Xie Chen in the end?

One of Curry's advantages in competing for MVP is that the Warriors have a good record and still have the best record in the league, and he is the best player on the best team. According to the previous conditions for awarding MVP, it should not be taken for granted. Should it be given to Curry?

But since last year, people have discovered that this award does not seem to be that simple. The Warriors' record is very good, but it is not only supported by Curry alone, but more by the team and the system. But the Knicks are different. Winning depends on the core Xie Chen.

Xie Chen and Curry's average points per game are about the same. Curry is still temporarily ahead, but Curry is far behind Xie Chen in assists. The most terrifying thing is that Xie Chen makes his teammates better, but Curry does not. In other words, he is much worse than Xie Chen.

And this is the biggest drawback of Curry and Xie Chen competing for MVP!

Xie Chen turned Anthony into the league's scoring leader, and turned Porzingis, a rookie that everyone was not optimistic about, into the number one rookie candidate now! With these two points, Xie Chen will be more competitive when competing for MVP!

"This is a competition for MVP. I haven't beaten him yet. I have to beat him once. Moreover, I have to prove to others that I can also make my teammates better!" Stephen Curry had already said before the game. He decided to play tonight. He gave up the one-on-one duel with Xie Chen and helped his teammates more. Therefore, it was not surprising that the first ball was screened to attract the defense and give Barnes a shooting opportunity.

Compared to Curry, who regarded this game as an MVP battle, Xie Chen was much more relaxed. After blocking the shot, he used Barkley's rebounding ability to grab the rebound, and then quickly rushed to the frontcourt. The Warriors retreated very quickly, and basically Xie Chen was not given a chance to quickly score a layup, but they still missed a point.

Porzingis!

As soon as Porzingis reached the three-point line, Xie Chen passed the ball to him. Porzingis did not go inside and jumped directly to shoot. It is still difficult to guard against a shot by a person who is 2.21 meters tall. Porzingis had a good touch and hit the ball directly.

5:0! Xie Chen liked this start.

Then, Curry assisted Klay Thompson, but Thompson also missed. If the Knicks score again, the score will become 7:0 or 8:0. Xie Chen is also determined to score such a goal against his opponent. He likes to get points like this the most.

"If we can beat the Warriors 10:0 at the beginning, then the Warriors will be led by our noses throughout the first half." Xie Chen realized the importance of the next goal and decided to play it himself.

Xie Chen began to try a fadeaway jumper after breaking through one step, but could not find a suitable opportunity. Xie Chen suddenly changed to a forced breakthrough, catching the Warriors off guard. Xie Chen used Rose to fold for a layup, adding two more points!

7:0! The Knicks are off to a really good start.

Since Xie Chen's folding layup was made under Green's defense, Green was very upset and kept yelling at him. Xie Chen saw that Green was so excited and couldn't help but stepped forward and said, "The last time I played like this The perfect start was when we beat the Jazz 38:0. I heard that not long ago, you had a narrow victory after two overtimes, so the level was about the same."

"Damn it, who do you think we are similar to?" Upon hearing Xie Chen compare the Warriors to a team like the Jazz, Green immediately became furious.

Warriors boss Curry stepped forward, patted Green and comforted him: "Don't worry."

Curry is cool, and he is getting cooler. Originally, he did not have this cool side, but he has it since he suffered many blows from Xie Chen.

The next time, the Warriors' tactics were not created for others, but for Curry. When Xie Chen chased Curry, he was blocked by another Warriors screener and was a step too late. As a result, when Curry received the ball, Xie Chen Chen has lost the initiative and can only take off quickly.

But Curry was smarter and more patient. He clearly had the opportunity to shoot a three-pointer, but gave up. Instead, he suddenly moved sideways to the right, luring Xie Chen over, and then shot a two-pointer. Xie Chen couldn't defend. There was a foul, and Curry hit the board and hit the two-pointer under the foul.

2+1! Curry responded with a two plus one, and the Oracle Arena, which had been silent for a long time, finally began to boil...

"Curry, good job! Defeat him!"

"You are the MVP!"

"Revenge for Backkom!"

The fans shouted excitedly one by one. Xie Chen was startled and said with a smile: "It turns out that I am playing in the most terrifying away game, and it took me several minutes to feel it."

This kind of atmosphere is the Warriors home court that Xie Chen is familiar with. I remember when he first came here, Xie Chen had just become famous. Those fans kept calling Xie Chen a copycat, and then Xie Chen shot three-pointers again and again. The shots were even more accurate, and the beating left them speechless.

In order to shut up those people, Xie Chen has also decided to use more or even only McGrady's three-point shooting ability in this game. The All-Star Game is coming soon, and it's time to let everyone know about Xie Chen's other ability.

Curry made a steady free throw, and finally failed to let the Knicks score 10:0. It is indeed the team with the best record in the league, and it is indeed not easy to deal with. However, the reason why the Warriors can score goals depends on Curry. Curry " His plan to make his teammates better still failed to succeed.

2+1, it's still on Xie Chen. This is something Xie Chen absolutely can't bear, because 2+1, he is the master.

Looking back, Xie Chen decided to let Curry experience the results of his special training during the suspension. A shot after a foul.

It is not easy to cause Curry to foul, because Curry does not like to jump too much, and even when he jumps, he does not jump with all his strength. There is always room for it. Therefore, in order to make Curry more willing to jump with all his strength, according to Zhang Weiping’s guidance, Xie Chen decided to play with him.

Xie Chen dribbled the ball with his left hand past half court. It is not unusual for him to dribble with his left hand. What is strange is that Xie Chen dribbled the ball behind his back with his left hand when facing Curry. The scene immediately let out an exclamation. It was a very gorgeous move. Xie Chen rarely does this. There are no unnecessary fancy dribbling moves. His dribbling has always been simple and direct, relying on speed to win.

Then, after Xie Chen dribbled with his left hand, the ball reached his right hand. He rushed forward with the ball. Curry followed. Xie Chen immediately stopped and dribbled the ball under his crotch.

Curry also understood now that Xie Chen wanted to have fun with Curry this time. Xie Chen might even want to try to knock Curry down now!

"Wow." Chen Yihan screamed immediately. Girls are always attracted by such gorgeous moves, not to mention that the two people facing each other are both stars that Chen Yihan admires.

Gradually, people suddenly discovered a problem, that is, Xie Chen's movements are similar to Curry's usual moves. Xie Chen can imitate Curry's and Irving's movements well, and Curry's movements are still easy to identify. , that pace, that rhythm, it’s Curry at first glance, not Irving or anyone else.

"I know, he wants to imitate the way I usually score goals and score this goal!" Curry also instantly understood Xie Chen's intentions when he was defending.

According to Curry's understanding, Xie Chen will break through and hit the board for a throw in the next step. If it were Curry, he would do this, so he thinks Xie Chen will do the same.

However, Xie Chen thought more about it than Curry.

Xie Chen wants to make Curry think that he is imitating him. According to his characteristics, the next step is to break through and throw, and when he is preparing to throw, it is the best time for Xie Chen to foul Curry!

Xie Chen really broke through Curry and mastered the rhythm very well. Curry followed Xie Chen closely. Naturally, Xie Chen couldn't really imitate it successfully. Curry followed Xie Chen's rhythm. He was quite familiar with this offensive rhythm, because this is He already knew his own rhythm and which step to shoot, so he jumped without any scruples.

However, Xie Chen did not jump.

"What?" Curry was shocked after taking off, but Xie Chen didn't even take action! He shouldn't have stopped at this time. Curry knew very well that stopping at this time was completely unreasonable and it was easy to walk away. Curry also immediately understood that Xie Chen was just trying to trick Curry into committing a foul!

Xie Chen easily deceived Curry into committing a foul, and then, with his shooting posture deformed, he hit the goal.

Xie Chen gave Curry a 2+1!

The fans at the scene couldn't help but secretly sigh that Xie Chen was so powerful. Curry had just beaten Xie Chen with a 2+1, and Xie Chen immediately returned the favor, and the point difference was back to 7 points.

Next, the Knicks led by less than ten points until the end of the first quarter. Both teams had very high shooting percentages in the first quarter, and not only Curry and Xie Chen scored, but basically everyone who played Everyone scored, and the battle between the two teams was a joy to watch.

However, Curry and Xie Chen did not shoot their best three-pointers in the first quarter. Curry made 1 of 2 three-pointers in the first quarter, and Xie Chen did not take a shot at all. This made those who like to watch them Fans of the three-point contest were a little disappointed.

However, in the second quarter, Curry's touch suddenly picked up, and a very good opportunity appeared. He hit two consecutive three-pointers, directly tying the score. The scene became excited, and countless Warriors fans were also excited.

"From now on, the Knicks will never have a chance to lead the Warriors!"

"Didn't Xie Chen boast that he could beat Curry with a three-pointer in the All-Star Game? Why don't you even dare to shoot now?"

Curry's two three-pointers were all made under Xie Chen's defense. It must have been uncomfortable for Xie Chen.

"It's time to expose McGrady's three-point ability..." Xie Chen secretly said. He couldn't wait until the All-Star Game to let Curry know about his ability. After all, there are too many stars in the All-Star Game, and it is impossible to let two People are happy to compete. In today's game, Xie Chen let the whole league know in advance that he can not only shoot Curry-style three-pointers!

Xie Chen held the ball with both hands outside the three-point line at a 45-degree angle on the left wing and made a tentative step with his right foot. Curry was still very afraid of Xie Chen's breakthrough. He would never have thought that Xie Chen wanted to shoot a three-pointer at this time. Xie Chen really did this.

After just a feint in front of Curry's eyes, Xie Chen stood up and shot a three-pointer!

"What?" Everyone in the audience was shocked. After catching the ball on the spot, he shot directly? This is not in line with his usual habit of shooting three-pointers!

Uh-huh! It was a simple hit, but it was completely different from Xie Chen's shooting posture in the past. Xie Chen took the shot when he reached the highest point, and the arc was not that high. The goal did not enter the net as cleanly and crisply as Curry's style, and it still hit the basket. medial.

Curry also found it incredible. Xie Chen once said that he would defeat Curry in another way in the All-Star Game. Isn't he bragging? What he said is true? Does he really know how to shoot another way?

"Is it a coincidence?" Curry was shocked. He never liked seeing Xie Chen using the same shooting posture as him, but when he found out that Xie Chen could hit the ball with other shooting postures, he felt even more uncomfortable. , I feel less comfortable than seeing him imitate myself.

Now, most fans agree with Curry's guess and think it should be a coincidence. However, Xie Chen soon hit another McGrady-style three-pointer, leaving everyone speechless.

McGrady has retired for more than two years. It may be a long time or a short time, but starting from today, he will appear in the league again!
