Super All-around Point Guard

This is a result that no one expected!

The Cavaliers are considered the strongest team in the Eastern Conference, but they trailed the Knicks by so many points in the first quarter! This is simply unbelievable. The Cavaliers' defense was completely broken by the Knicks. Everyone in the Knicks seemed to be flying. The Cavaliers could not stop it at all. The person who controlled all this was Xie Chen!

"Oh my god, I can't believe the Knicks can lead the Cavaliers by so many points! The strength they showed in the first quarter feels stronger than the Warriors and Spurs!"

The Knicks played the most perfect first quarter since the playoffs. They faced the Cavaliers, the strongest opponent in the Eastern Conference. This gave everyone a new understanding of the Knicks team. Most of the time, everyone always thought The Knicks are not as strong as other strong teams. I especially think that the Knicks do not have strong scoring points except Xie Chen and Anthony. However, in today's game, Derrick Williams made everyone's eyes shine. His performance was Superstar level.

Coupled with Derrick Williams' flamboyant braided hairstyle, he gained more attention and fans.

The New York Knicks' performance in the first quarter also stunned the entire Spurs team.

Veteran Tim Duncan touched his thigh and kept exclaiming: "It's too fast, they are too fast! As soon as he gets a rebound in the backcourt, Xie will rush to the frontcourt as if he has a booster on him. He looks faster than Westbrook, and Derrick Williams, he's pushing the ball so fast."

The speed of Xie Chen and Williams shocked Duncan. For veterans, speed is their major weakness. In other words, if the opponent were them, when Xie Chen quickly attacked their basket like this At that time, neither Duncan nor Aldridge could keep up with Xie Chen and could only watch and score.

The Spurs have too many veterans and not many players with great physical talent. Even Leonard is not particularly fast. During the regular season, the Spurs lost to opponents such as the Thunder and Suns because of their opponents' fast breaks. So they have to worry about meeting the Knicks. The Thunder have the second young player from the Thunder, but now, the Knicks also have the second young player, not Xie Chen and Anthony, but Xie Chen and Derrick Williams.

LeBron James, who was sitting on the bench, was very unhappy. He had just won the first game. He originally wanted to go all out and win the second game tonight. His performance was fine, but he never expected that Nick would Si actually played the top fast break in the league. Xie Chen scored no matter how many points he scored, but he actually let Derrick Williams steal the show, scoring two 2+1s in a row, and also played a pass without looking at anyone. , assisted Ray Allen with a three-pointer.

Every ball that Ray Allen made made James very uncomfortable, because Ray Allen should have been James's man, and these points should have been obtained for him.

While James was wiping his face with a towel, he looked at Derrick Williams in the dugout opposite and thought to himself: "I remember this guy dunking very hard, but the speed, in my mind, has never been this fast before. Ever since Xie joined Since joining the Knicks, Williams' speed and explosiveness seem to have increased compared to before."

James's feeling is correct. Williams has indeed changed a lot this season, especially his speed, which is faster than before. He has also lost weight, but it doesn't look obvious. The reason why Williams did what he did All this is to cooperate with Xie Chen.

Fisher looked at Xie Chen and Williams and felt comforted in his heart. Both Xie Chen and Williams only joined the New York Knicks this season. Fisher would never have thought that these two people would be combined. , actually has such power.

Anthony didn't score much in the first quarter, and Xie Chen and Williams took all the scenes, but Anthony was very happy, patted Williams on the shoulder and encouraged: "Well done, keep doing this."

Williams didn't dare to be proud in front of Anthony. He was afraid that he would steal Anthony's limelight, so he timidly said: "Boss..."

Anthony saw Williams' mood and said: "You are 7 years younger than me. Your speed and explosiveness are something I can't have now. The team needs you and you need to bear this responsibility."

Unconsciously, the Knicks became more and more like a whole. In the second game of the Eastern Conference Finals, everyone seemed to be united.

However, it is not a good signal for the "weak team" to lead the "strong team" by so many points. They must beware of the "strong team"'s counterattack at any time. This kind of counterattack, once it starts, is quite terrifying.

At the beginning of the second quarter, Kyrie Irving led the team to chase points, while Anthony and Porzingis were also on the court to stabilize their morale, ready to deal with the counterattack of the Cavaliers' second team.

As soon as the Cavaliers score, the Knicks will respond immediately. After a few minutes of play, the Cavaliers are still two digits behind the Knicks.

James, can't wait!

James, Xie Chen, and Williams play at the same time, and a big showdown is about to begin again!

James is eager to win. He doesn't want the team to be in a backward situation. In most people's eyes, the Knicks went crazy in the first quarter and the Cavaliers were a little confused. But in the second quarter, the situation will slowly return to normal. Many people felt that the Knicks would not be able to withstand the Cavaliers' counterattack, and the score would be close in this quarter.

Sure enough, not long after James came on the court, he used the Knicks' fast break method in the previous quarter to hit back hard at his opponent.

JR Smith completed the steal, and he and James immediately stepped down. JR Smith was already 31 years old, and his advancing speed was not too fast, and he did not get rid of Xie Chen's defense. Xie Chen was confident that as long as JR dared to layup, he would block him. But Xie Chen was worried about James who was following behind.

Derrick Williams also followed James step by step. In the previous analysis of the duel between the two, everyone thought that Williams was younger than James and should have an advantage in speed. However, after the actual matchup, it was discovered that this was not the case at all. Well, it's always difficult for Williams to keep up with James, and his reactions are always a beat slower than James'.

This shows James' agility and explosive power. His physical condition is not inferior to that of last year.

Near the basket, J.R. Smith, who was holding the ball, knew that Xie Chen would be able to block his ball. He didn't even think about making a layup. He jumped up and threw back high, giving James an alley-oop.

JR Smith took off, and Xie Chen had no choice but to jump with him. Although he knew that JR wanted to pass to James behind him, there was nothing he could do. He could only hope that Williams behind him could prevent James from scoring the goal.

In fact, JR Smith didn't pass the ball well, and Xie Chen's defense was too threatening. The ball passed by JR Smith made James very uncomfortable.

However, the difficult pass made it more difficult for Williams to stop James. James reached the ball with one hand and almost jumped to the highest position. Williams would definitely not be able to stop James if he was one step too late. I was very excited for the whole quarter, and the excitement has not passed yet, so I tried to prevent James from scoring, but I didn't expect that it was self-defeating. I hit James on the arm. This was a standard foul action. The referee was already preparing to blow the whistle. , Unfortunately, this thug seemed to have no impact on James' subsequent dunk.

Xie Chen had already landed and turned around to see how James completed the goal. He saw James using an extremely uncomfortable posture, leaning back to dunk the ball into the basket!

The scene quickly became excited! This is still a 2+1!

"Leakback dunk! Only James can do such a dunk!"

"JR Smith didn't pass the ball very well, but James was able to complete the goal perfectly. He is still at his peak!"

At this time, James himself roared excitedly. While shouting, he flashed the muscles of his right arm and slapped with his left hand, seemingly to show off his provocation to Derrick Williams.

"James' physical condition is indeed very good." Xie Chen also realized James' competitive state from this ball. He can complete such a difficult alley-oop beautifully. It is stupid to say that James is old. He is still at his peak. , and more difficult to deal with than in the past.

The Knicks' fast break duo includes Xie Chen and Derrick Williams, both of whom can dunk. The Cavaliers' fast break duo includes James and JR Smith. Their dunks are not inferior to the former's. .

Speaking of JR Smith's dunks, Xie Chen's teammate Carmelo Anthony should be the most impressive. Anthony and JR Smith were teammates in the Nuggets, and then they were still teammates in the New York Knicks. It can be said that JR Smith had a great career Anthony witnessed all the dunks.

JR Smith has a strong body and a fierce personality. He has a ruffian attitude that refuses to accept anyone. His dunks are particularly flavorful. Xie Chen’s favorite dunk move of JR Smith is that after jumping up, he puts the ball on his waist with both hands. In the meantime, he swung slightly to the right, and then raised his hands to dunk. This action was very cool.

And JR Smith quickly used this dunk action in front of Xie Chen. This time, it was James holding the ball for a fast break. Williams would definitely not be able to withstand James alone. Xie Chen had to go over to help, but James could Not wanting to be chased by Xie Chen behind him, he found JR Smith, and then Smith completed a dunk like that.

In terms of fast break scoring ability, the Cavaliers are not afraid of the Knicks. In addition to James and J.R. Smith, Kyrie Irving can also participate at any time. His speed and various layup abilities are also impossible for the Knicks to defend alone.

Under the joint performance of James and JR Smith, the Cavaliers quickly chased the score to only 5 points.

This only five-point advantage seems insignificant in the eyes of both Cavaliers and Knicks fans. With the strong strength of the Cavaliers, chasing these five points is simply a matter of minutes, and everyone feels that they have fallen behind by 15 points. To catch up to 5 points is what should happen.

But Xie Chen didn't think so.

"Why do we have to fall behind? Why can't we lead by double digits? No, I want to continue to bring the point difference back to more than 10 points!" Xie Chen felt very uncomfortable after being chased by James.

The stubborn Xie Chen wanted to use a three-pointer to quickly increase the score, but he was unlucky. This time the three-pointer was not made, and the Cavaliers protected the defensive rebounds very well. Lopez or Anthony almost did not steal it. hope to arrive.

According to the rules of these two quarters, as long as one side fails to score and the other side gets the rebound, the side that gets the ball must advance as quickly as possible.

When James received the ball, he immediately rushed forward with all his strength, as if he had become a larger Westbrook.

Xie Chen couldn't let James rush forward so unscrupulously again. When James started to speed up and dribbled the ball for the first time, Xie Chen boldly stepped forward and used Chris Paul's stealing skills to beat James with a very low center of gravity. His dribbling was stopped!

"Oops!" James had already rushed over, but found that the ball had been intercepted by Xie Chen!

Speaking of which, James was too anxious to start the fast break. He didn't notice the defensive situation in front of him at all, and just wanted to dribble the ball to the frontcourt as soon as possible.

Cavaliers center Mozgov wanted to run forward, but when he saw the ball was intercepted by Xie Chen, he quickly retreated and stood firmly under the basket. With this step back, Xie Chen gave him no chance to move.

I saw that after Xie Chen stole the ball from James, he kept walking, went straight to the basket, and flew into the air!

boom!

Xie Chen rode on Mozgov and dunked with both hands!

"Hands! Oh my God, hands!"

There were shocked looks in the audience, and Kate Upton was too shocked to even scream.

A violent buckle was awarded to Mozgov.

There was another scene of celebration on the Knicks bench, with veteran players like Ci Shiping and Odom also making funny expressions.

Xie Chen and Mozgov fought too many times last year. Mozgov was present in every game of the seven-game series with the Cavaliers. However, at that time, Xie Chen only had the dunk ability of Zach LaVine. , there is no Vince Carter, so he dare not rush in and have a physical confrontation with him, but now, with Carter and even O'Neal's dunking ability, the restricted area is no longer a "restricted area" for him.

Mozgov's condition this season is actually not as good as last season. He has a knee injury. He just had arthroscopic surgery on his right knee earlier and has not yet returned to his best condition.

After the ball, James took the initiative to step forward and pat Mozgov, and took the initiative to take responsibility: "This ball is my fault."

James was very angry, stole his ball, and then bullied his teammate with an injured knee. James had to retaliate against Xie Chen for what he did.

When the next time the Knicks missed a shot, or they didn't know whether it was a shot or not, James was already running. After Love grabbed the rebound, he immediately heard James' call and made another long pass. It was given to James. James was running so fast that Xie Chen couldn't keep up. After that, James hit the basket hard again.

The commentator was saying at this time: "Everyone has been running since the beginning. They really don't care about the physical exertion!"
