Super All-around Point Guard

Xie Chen's unconventional playing style completely made Popovich lose control of his emotions, and this punch hit the referee so coincidentally. The referee was not satisfied with Popovich yelling from the sidelines, and took this opportunity to directly punch Popovich. After being ejected, Popovich didn't want to coach anymore and left the game angrily.

The head coach was ejected, and the Lakers already had a big lead at this time. There was no suspense in the game. In the end, the Lakers defeated the legendary Spurs, and Xie Chen did not lose his ability.

…

Back in the arena in 2016, Xie Chen still had to deal with the older version of the Spurs. Ten years later, Ginobili's long flowing hair had turned bald, and Popovich had also grown his hair. With his white beard, he is the one who has obviously become older. Perhaps Parker seems to have changed the least among them. Neither his hairstyle nor his mental state have changed much, but this little French sports car can no longer run.

Now the Lakers are still lagging behind in points. Xie Chen suddenly feels that they have defeated even the best of them. There is no reason to lose to them who are getting older. This is no longer the era of GDP, but Leonard and Aldridge are great. leader? A formidable opponent? Xie Chen has encountered and defeated many more powerful combinations than them!

"I can beat them!" Xie Chen regained confidence. After taking a short rest, he quickly entered the game again and started chasing points!

Xie Chen started to steal constantly, and the steals could always be quickly converted into points. Even if Popovich called a timeout, Xie Chen could not interrupt Xie Chen's continuous steals.

Popovich was also a little stunned: "This kid already knows our offensive routine completely."

Not only that, Xie Chen also knew the competitive status of each Spurs player very well. He broke four old Spurs players, like Parker Ginobili and Gasol, in total. Xie Chen started very quickly. It seemed that A bit bullying these older players whose legs and feet are not so agile.

However, Leonard, who was at his peak, completely disdained Xie Chen. This time when he held the ball, he found that Xie Chen was defending him and broke through resolutely. Leonard has the height and physical confrontation. A control player like Xie Chen Wei, he usually doesn't take it seriously at all.

However, this time Leonard's forced breakthrough was interrupted by Xie Chen!

"What? Another steal! Leonard was also intercepted?" The fans were shocked. If those old players were intercepted because their speed and reaction were not as good as Xie Chen's, then why did Leonard also get intercepted? Interrupted? He is not an old player, how could he be intercepted by Xie Chen so easily!

Both of them are currently the best defensive players in the league. This competition will make it clear who is the better one!

The reason why Xie Chen was able to easily cut off Leonard's ball was because Xie Chen used his new ability, Artest's defensive ability!

Artest's defensive ability has only recently been integrated to 100%. He has not used it much yet. This move is to force a breakthrough against those who are heavier than himself. When Leonard forced Xie Chen away with his body, , the two bodies collided, and Xie Chen resisted Leonard. Leonard thought he could squeeze Xie Chen away and successfully broke through, but he didn't expect that he was like hitting a wall. At the same time, Xie Chen Chen took advantage of Leonard's unpreparedness to steal the ball from below, and Leonard had no choice.

After stealing the ball this time, Xie Chen made another lightning fast move. Leonard was so angry that he chased after him and tried to block Xie Chen's dunk, but gave Xie Chen a 2+1 opportunity in vain!

"Oops, the Lakers are catching up!" Warriors player Kevin Durant, who was paying attention to this game, couldn't help but feel anxious after seeing this scene. He thought the Spurs were leading by a big score and had a chance to win. Unexpectedly, Xie Chen Still relying on steals and super personal ability, he caught up with the score.

Durant thought carefully about the ball just now, and still felt a little strange: "Leonard's thrust was broken directly. This is really weird, unless there was a physical collision in the upper bodies of the two, and it was Leonard." Germany lost to Xie, otherwise Xie would not be able to intercept his ball. Xie's physical confrontation has always been unpredictable, but I have tried to force Xie in the past, and his defense is not particularly strong, similar to that of Westbrook. .”

Durant had experienced Xie Chen's defense before, so he was surprised by this scene.

"It seems that next time we play, I have to try this guy's defense again." Durant said softly.

After Xie Chen caught up with the score, the Spurs never widened the point difference, and the score between the two sides was maintained until the last moment of the game.

It’s the tense moment where the winner can be decided at the last moment. At this time, Spurs fans can’t help but worry. The Spurs are indeed very strong and have been strong for many years, but for some reason, the Spurs always become someone else’s. The background of the team is always defeated by some magical goals!

The most well-known is the 35 seconds and 13 minutes of McGrady's moment. At that time, even the fans at the Rockets' home court thought that the Rockets were destined to lose and left the arena early, but in the end they were beaten by McGrady with one three-pointer after another. Well, there is also the 0.4-second buzzer beater by veteran fisherman Fisher in the Western Conference semifinals. It was really a close call, and the Spurs were from heaven to hell. They couldn't believe that under their perfect defensive system, it would happen. He was defeated by his opponent in such a short period of time, as well as Carter's 1.7-second buzzer beater, and Ray Allen's life-saving three-pointer that stole the Spurs championship...

This tragic past time and time again can always sting the hearts of Spurs fans.

The Spurs' last attack was successful, and they once again took the lead, leading the Lakers by one point. In the end, it was the Lakers who decided this game!

The Spurs are always guaranteed to lead their opponents at the last moment. Most teams miss the last shot, and the ones that succeed become classics.

"It's been a long time since I hit a buzzer beater. Don't worry and leave it to me this time." Xie Chen said to the coach and teammates during the Lakers' last timeout.

Walton and the Lakers players are also very confident in Xie Chen's ability at critical moments. By this time, the Lakers are no longer afraid of the Spurs. At critical moments, they are no longer fighting for the team, but for superstars! Leonard is the only one in the Spurs who can be called a superstar, but he is incomparable to Xie Chen!

In the past two seasons, Xie Chen has made many more buzzer-beating shots than Leonard has in his entire career! Xie Chen is truly the key!

"Xie's shooting percentage at the critical moment is very high. He seems to have no psychological pressure at all. Will the Lakers win this game?" Durant started talking. At this time, Green and Curry, who had left before, also listened. After hearing the news, they rushed back to watch the last ball.

On the last ball, Leonard defended Xie Chen!

Xie Chen held the ball and watched the time. He tried not to give the Spurs any chance to attack after hitting the ball.

Seeing Leonard's focused expression, Xie Chen couldn't help but joked: "You admire Michael Jordan? I heard that you were once obsessed with practicing Michael Jordan's fadeaway jumper. Listen, next, I will use this Let’s get rid of you!”

Speaking of Leonard, his playing style sometimes really has the charm of Jordan, because he admires Jordan very much and intends to imitate Jordan's technical movements. Xie Chen did not intend to use Jordan's fadeaway jumper to shoot The last ball, he said, was just to confuse this simple-minded guy.

Leonard was obsessed with Jordan's fadeaway jumper skills. He watched Jordan's video tape exercises day and night. Coupled with Popovich's guidance, he achieved today's achievements. However, if we talk about his fadeaway jumper ability, Leon Nader can't compare to Xie Chen. Xie Chen's fadeaway jumper is more accurate and more like Jordan than Leonard's.

Leonard has always been jealous of Xie Chen's skills and wanted to know how Xie Chen practiced it. However, due to his shy personality, he would not ask questions directly like Harden and others. He and Xie Chen also Not friends.

But after hearing what Xie Chen said, Leonard immediately panicked.

"Damn, he's going to use a fadeaway jumper!" Leonard has no doubt that Xie Chen lied to him, because Xie Chen has always been the best at using his opponent's stunts to check his opponent, and he will tell you in advance like Bird. Whatever moves I use, it's always the way these guys show off.

Leonard had indeed fallen into the trap. When Xie Chen broke through to the right, he had already predicted in his mind Xie Chen's next move, which would be a fadeaway jumper!

Xie Chen counted the time, and when he felt it was about the same, after breaking through to the right, he suddenly dribbled back from behind, and then Xie Chen retreated beyond the three-point line!

Quick Curry-style three-point shot!

"What?" Leonard was stunned. It wasn't a fadeaway jumper!

Uh-huh!

The basketball hits the net and the game is over!

Xie Chen absolutely killed the Spurs!

"ah!"

"yeah!"

The Lakers players all rushed to Xie Chen excitedly to celebrate this exciting moment! They defeated the Spurs and defeated opponents that even the Warriors could not defeat!

The Warriors spectators all had expressions on their faces. At the end of the previous half, they were all beaming with joy, waiting to see Xie Chen lose. Who knew...

Green was helpless: "Win again, win again! Why are they so lucky! When will they fall from that damn first position!"

Curry watched Xie Chen use his best moves to kill the Spurs without saying a word.

Durant doesn't care too much about the Lakers winning or losing. What he cares about is whether Xie Chen's ability has changed again.

On the court, Popovich also had a desperate expression. He couldn't remember how many times he had been killed. This time it was good, not too miserable, and Popovich had it in advance. Mental preparation.

The only one in the Spurs team who couldn't accept reality was Leonard. Duncan, a non-player, walked onto the court from the sidelines and saw his former younger brother Leonard preparing to walk towards Xie Chen who was cheering and celebrating. He pulled Leonard over and said, "Where are you going, kid?"

Leonard said: "He lied to me."

Duncan touched Leonard's head: "Forget it, I used to lie to people a lot. Go back to the locker room quickly. I'll go with you."

…

After this battle, the Lakers continue to occupy the first position in the Western Conference! The momentum and strength the Lakers have shown since the start of the game has really shocked the entire league. Even the Lakers' own fans can't believe they can do it. Until today's game, the Lakers have also experienced the Warriors, Spurs, Clippers, Grizzlies, and Rockets. These difficult opponents only lost one of them, which is enough to prove the strength of the Lakers!

Everyone was looking forward to the Lakers' ranking falling down, but Xie Chen refused to let them do so! It’s not that easy for the Warriors to get rid of their exclusive first place!

The Lakers' next game is to face the Atlanta Hawks at home. The Hawks are no longer the team that Xie Chen was familiar with in the previous two seasons. Horford went to the Boston Celtics, Teague went to the Indiana Pacers, and the Hawks ushered in their own team. The first No. 1 pick since Elton Brand joins, the former "Warcraft" Howard is here!

The former Warcraft Howard was known as the only player in the league who could replace LeBron James alone. You can imagine how strong his worth and strength were. Just a few years ago, the Rockets, Warriors, Mavericks, and Lakers were trying to replace LeBron James. Everyone fought hard to get him. In order to get him, they erected billboards for him, created cartoon images, and even sent out celebrities to lobby. But now he is no longer so popular. favor.

There is a common argument in the league: no one thinks Howard is worth a contract worth 31 million, but Howard feels that he is still so valuable. He is seeking a four-year contract of more than 132 million US dollars, but no team manager thinks that If it meets this price, no one will make this risky investment.

In the end, Howard signed a three-year contract with the Hawks worth a total of $70 million, and Howard returned to his hometown of Atlanta to play as he wished.

Coming to Staples Arena again, Howard was full of emotions. At that time, he also spent a short time with the Los Angeles Lakers. Although the memories were not pleasant, now he really feels that leaving the Lakers may not be the right thing. Decide.

At that time, he left the Lakers because of Kobe, because of the head coach, and because there was no hope of winning here. Now, Kobe has retired, and the coach has been replaced by Luke Walton, who has the most potential, and the Lakers Now that he has Xie Chen, if Howard is here, he firmly believes that he will have money, fame, fortune and honor.

The Hawks' current record is very bad, with more losses and fewer wins. Howard is not expected to be at his peak in this brand-new team. The game against the Lakers was suppressed from the beginning.

"The Eagles don't have anyone who can stand up and thank you, Howard? He is no longer a superstar!"

"Well, when he came to our Lakers team, I still imagined that he and Kobe could win another championship together. He really disappointed us, but I really hope that the current Lakers team can win another championship. With him, Xie and Howard, they are the only players in the league who can replace LeBron James alone!"
