Super All-around Point Guard

The series between the Warriors and the Spurs also ushered in the third matchup. The two sides had previously tied 1-1 at the Warriors' home court. The Warriors' home court was terrifying because they had only lost a total of 9 games in the regular season. They didn't lose much, and the Spurs' home court was also terrible. They only lost to the Knicks and Warriors in the regular season.

This year's Warriors created the best record in history. Although the day when they created the best record happened to be the final battle of Kobe's career, and the glorious moment was somewhat taken away by Kobe, but they are destined to Many people believe that the Warriors' record of 73 wins and 9 losses will not be broken in the next ten, twenty, or thirty years.

The new "Mr. MVP" Stephen Curry, coming to the ATT Center is no different from playing at his home court. Although the Spurs' home court is scary, especially for the Warriors, because in the past 19 years, the Warriors have not The Spurs can be defeated in this arena, but this year, Stephen Curry led the team to conquer it.

As usual, Curry was doing warm-up shots before the game. He would shoot 2,000 three-pointers every week, at least 250 every day, and another 100 before the game. That's why he became the most terrifying player in the NBA. shooter, because there is another guy in the NBA who is as good as him, that is Xie Chen, so Curry still wants to increase his training volume, and also really wants to know how many balls Xie Chen practices every day, and how he practices. If not It's hard to say anything. Curry really wants to get along with Xie Chen and train together every day.

"Isn't that guy really unable to play? If the Cavaliers win two consecutive home games against the Knicks, they will be finished." The opponent in front of Curry is the Spurs, but he is still thinking about his old rival Xie Chen. .

Last year, Curry lost to Xie Chen in the finals. This grudge has been hidden in his heart, and he just wants to meet again in this year's finals and then take revenge.

Last season, not only his performance in the finals, but also the number of three-point goals in the regular season and the number of three-point goals in the playoffs, Curry has set a new high in history, but Xie Chen scored more than him. More to come! And only one or two more balls!

Stephen Curry is very angry. Last season he made 286 three-pointers. This season, the number rose directly to 402! This is simply a crazy increase! You must know that 286 has already set an NBA historical record. It is really rare to break the record so completely. Everyone knows that this was forced by Xie Chen.

This season, Xie Chen did not continue to compete with him in three-pointers. The three-pointers he shot in the regular season were less than half of Curry's because Xie Chen had too many offensive methods and he did not compete for the scoring title. Ambition and assists are much more than last season.

After the game between the Warriors and the Spurs started, the situation became different from what everyone expected. Everyone thought that this would be a very fierce and difficult game to determine the winner. However, as soon as Curry and Thompson's consecutive three-pointers started, I beat the Spurs, there's nothing I can do about it, it's just too accurate.

"Has anyone counted Stephen Curry's three-point goals in this year's playoffs? Is he about to break last season's record?" Spurs fans were shocked by Curry's three-pointers. This weapon is really shocking. .

Curry also knows that he is about to break Xie Chen's three-pointer record in the playoffs last season. If the Warriors can enter the finals, even if Curry makes two shots in a game, he will definitely break this record. Even if he does not enter the finals There will definitely be a few more games against the Spurs in the finals, and it will be enough.

However, breaking this record is no longer so exciting for Curry now.

"That guy Xie doesn't want to compete with me for three-point goals in the playoffs. It's really boring!" It's fun to have someone to compete with. Curry feels very lonely. He even thinks about what if this league didn't have Xie Chen. There is only one three-point shooter of his level. How lonely and boring must his career be?

The Spurs are a very tenacious team, and now they are at the Spurs' home court, but the ball has not gotten up since it was suppressed from the beginning. The Warriors team played flawlessly, and the offensive climax was a Wave after wave, the Spurs were stunned and unable to parry. The 73-win team won the third game with a big score, leading the Spurs 2:1.

Although he won a game with a big score, Stephen Curry still felt that it was not interesting. He was still thinking about Xie Chen. He knew Xie Chen’s phone number, but he didn’t like chatting with Xie Chen because he thought he hated Xie Chen. Morning, but now I couldn't help but call him.

Xie Chen was flattered to receive a call from Curry late at night. In fact, he had just watched the game between the Warriors and the Spurs.

"Congratulations on winning an important game!" Xie Chen first congratulated Stephen Curry.

Curry said: "Thank you, I really want to know how your injury is? Will you play in tomorrow's game? How long will you play? Frankly speaking, if you miss the remaining games because of this, and let the Cavaliers become the Eastern Conference champion, , I will be very disappointed. You know I have always wanted to beat you in the finals. Why I shot 400 three-pointers this season is because I want to tell you that I am the strongest three-pointer! You rest in the regular season After many games, this competition may not be fair to you, but in the playoffs, you still have no intention of competing with me."

Hearing what Curry said in his heart, Xie Chen laughed and said: "Curry, you are so funny. Yes, my three-point shots have indeed decreased a bit this season, but you don't have to be too disappointed. If you must If you want to compete with me on three-pointers, then let’s meet on the finals stage! At that time, I will compete with you on the number of three-pointers scored. Don’t worry, I will not miss the remaining games, and we will defeat the Cavaliers and advance. Finals, I hope you can do the same.”

Curry was overjoyed when he heard Xie Chen was so confident: "Okay, see you in the finals, I'll wait for you to challenge me!"

After hanging up the phone, Xie Chen was a little unhappy. Why did he first have to run to challenge others when he competed with others? It's such a loss of status. Next season, I have to achieve a top-ranked record and let others challenge me.

…

New York, Madison Square Garden, Game 4 between the Knicks and Cavaliers.

"I heard that Xie will play tonight! I wonder how his injury is recovering. Will his fingers affect his shooting feel?"

"The finger injury was a minor matter, but the most serious one was the heavy blow from Tristan Thompson. I went home and watched the video over and over again. Oh my God, that action was so cruel and bad that no one would be fine. , Xie should rest for a few more days, but the current situation is that the Knicks really can't live without him. If they lose both home games, this series will be over!"

Before the game started, many fans began to talk about Xie Chen's injury. Although they also knew that the team could not do without Xie Chen, Xie Chen brought them too many beautiful and magical moments, so they all hoped that Xie Chen could take care of Xie Chen. Health is the first priority. Even if Xie Chen misses the remaining games, they will not blame Xie Chen. Xie Chen is still young enough. In the future, he will have many opportunities to return to such a stage.

In this game, Xie Chen played with an injury, and the Cavaliers lost a member of the general Tristan Thompson. The situation is destined to be different from the previous three games. The combat effectiveness of both sides has decreased, but although the Cavaliers lack an inside maniac, after all, the Big Three are still there, and the overall strength has little impact, so Xie Chen's performance is crucial.

Xie Chen's injury is an ironclad fact. It cannot have no impact at all. Moreover, the finger injury will affect Xie Chen's dribbling. Therefore, Xie Chen will dribble as little as possible in this game and leave the organization of offense to Anthony or others. If people do it, Xie Chen's playing style and offensive method will become different from the past.

In this game, Ray Allen is still the starter. In the series against the Cavaliers, Ray Allen's playing time was obviously longer than when playing against other teams. No one knows why Fisher let Ray Allen All the time on the court, Ray Allen's performance can only be regarded as average, and he did not perform particularly well. It seems that Junzi Lei has completely lost the bravery he once had.

Ray Allen controls the ball, and Xie Chen plays the No. 2 position. Due to Xie Chen's finger injury, it seems that the Knicks can no longer compare with the crazy situation in the past few games in terms of advancement speed.

Xie Chen plays more of the role of Ray Allen, being a 3D player, catching the ball and shooting instead of dribbling and shooting.

Many people doubted whether Xie Chen was used to dribbling and shooting, so it would be okay to become a catch-and-shoot three-pointer. However, after the first quarter, everyone discovered that Xie Chen's three-point shooting rate was still very high. Xie Chen faced JR Smith's defense in the first quarter and hit three three-pointers. And these were the only three times Xie Chen took action.

JR Smith was a little depressed. He thought Xie Chen would be easier to defend today. Indeed, the defense became a little easier because Xie Chen took fewer shots and dribbled less. The Knicks' offense still revolved around Anthony. Xie Chen Most of the time he was watching from the weak side, but Xie Chen only got three shots in the first quarter, and he actually hit all of them and scored 9 points. This is also a 40-point pace in four quarters! This is not how an injured person should behave!

During the timeout, J.R. Smith asked James helplessly: "James, what do you think? His finger injury seems to have no impact on his shooting touch."

James nodded: "Don't underestimate the greatest shooter in history. For a shooter of his level, as long as he can throw the ball, he can hit the basketball. One or two fingers may not affect him. Don't worry about him." If he's injured, just defend him as if he's healthy."

"Actually, I've always been doing this." JR Smith said helplessly. How dare he neglect to defend Xie Chen just because he was injured! It’s just that when you’re entangled with him, you don’t dare to have too much physical contact.

"It doesn't matter if the shooting doesn't affect it. At least now he can no longer dunk like before." Love said, as an inside player, the most annoying thing is the guy who always rushes to the basket and dunks. Now Xie Chen has a finger injury. He finally stopped worrying about this problem, and within three minutes of Le Fu's words, unfortunately, Xie Chen made Le Fu speechless with the facts.

It was Anthony who shot. Anthony is already the Knicks' player who has taken the most shots, and his shooting percentage is not bad. However, the ball did not go in. It was too powerful and bounced out.

Love stood under the basket and protected the rebound very well. Without Tristan Thompson, everyone had to participate in protecting the rebound. And when Love was about to jump up to get the ball, he didn't. I thought that at this moment, Xie Chen suddenly slipped in from the right baseline and jumped up!

"What is he going to do!" JR Smith, who had been following Xie Chen, was shocked when he saw Xie Chen running out quickly.

Everyone was paying attention to the basketball, and no one noticed Xie Chen who suddenly jumped out from one side. In fact, for the entire quarter before, Xie Chen's presence was very low. Everyone regarded him as an injured player. The players who lost the game all thought that Xie Chen was no longer the master of this court, nor could he contribute great and exciting moments like he did in the past few games.

But they were wrong!

You can't buckle with your right hand, and you can't buckle with your left hand!

For a dunker of Vince Carter's caliber, dunking with either hand is equally good!

Xie Chen quickly jumped up behind Kevin Love, then crossed Love's head with his left hand and grabbed the basketball in advance. He pressed down hard with his left hand and dunked onto the rim through Love!

Xie Chen’s supplementary deduction! And it’s still left-handed!

The whole audience was shouting Xie Chen's name!

"Oh my god, he's still fearless! He can still dunk!"

"I can't believe it... Tristan Thompson would be shocked if he saw this ball. The person he violated so viciously is now fine!"

"Thank you..." James was shocked when he saw Xie Chen's dunk. This was the goal that Xie Chen vowed to return to. Xie Chen was telling everyone that nothing had changed!

Katie was watching the live broadcast at home. If Xie Chen hadn't performed a left-handed dunk in front of Katie, Katie would have been worried to death when she saw Xie Chen dunk like this.

"No matter what kind of blow you suffer, you will never flinch or change. Isn't that why I love you?"

Xie Chen's stubbornness and tenacity intimidated his opponents, especially JR Smith and Kevin Love. JR Smith was dedicated to defending Xie Chen. Every time they played against JR Smith, he felt that Xie Chen was like a killer. , nothing has changed. Love originally thought that Xie Chen would not be a special opponent, but after playing these four games, he felt more and more terrible about this opponent. Watching the game off the court and fighting on the court are two completely different things. The feeling, especially after being dunked by this guy just now.

"Even if he doesn't have legs, I guess this guy can fly with his hands on the ground, right?" Love will no longer naively think that Xie Chen will not fly and dunk because of his injured finger!
