Super All-around Point Guard

Chapter 265 Harden: I can't get to the free throw line!

The arc of the basketball changed after it was shot, because Jimmy Butler interfered with it at the moment Xie Chen made the shot. The basketball did not shoot into the basket as he expected, and it began to fall halfway, like a plane that was suddenly The crumbling plane after the bombing.

Jimmy Butler not only blocked Wade, but also blocked Xie Chen! Consecutively blocking the Heat's top star, this surprised everyone. What kind of medicine did this guy take tonight, and how could he suddenly explode! Or because...he has always been strong!

"Damn... Curry's shooting posture is still too bad for a defensive player of this height." Xie Chen was annoyed for a while, being blocked by his opponent is something Xie Chen can't allow, even if Xie Chen blocked Jimmy Butt just now Get one, and it's much more vicious than this one.

Stepping back and shooting outside the three-point line is a method that both Xie Chen and Curry like to use very well. Xie Chen thought that with Curry's lightning shot, he could ignore the opponent. Unexpectedly, Jimmy Butler had expected that Xie Chen would With this trick, coupled with his height of 2.01 meters, blocking shots will become very easy.

In fact, there is no need to feel ashamed to be blocked by Jimmy Butler. There are too many stars blocked by this guy. Press, for example, at the last critical moment, directly smash the ball of LeBron James.

This guy's defensive awareness and defensive intensity cannot be underestimated.

"Listen, Jimmy, you're going to get into trouble in this series." Xie Chen said to Jimmy Butler with a serious expression and a murderous look on his face. Are you kidding me? I just won the MVP and became the best player in the league. Come here Cap, how can Xie Chen swallow this kind of anger?

Jimmy Butler smiled lightly, and didn't take Xie Chen's threat seriously at all: "Hey, man, it's not fair, you blocked me just now, I didn't say anything, and I just touched the basketball lightly, unlike you Hit it like a cannon."

Xie Chen paused, Jimmy Butler was right, it made sense, why should others suffer when they are covered, but not themselves? But then I thought about it, why should I reason with you? I am the protagonist! What if I bully you!

"Just wait, Jimmy Butler, I will definitely return this hat to you! I will use Griffin's power to crush you!"

In this series, Xie Chen has another task, trying his best to block Jimmy Butler again!

However, Xie Chen also knows that the key task at present is to find a way to recover the lost points. It is already the fourth quarter, and the game will soon be over. If this continues, there will be no hope of a comeback in this game.

However, the Heat did not play badly in the fourth quarter. The offense was smooth and the shooting percentage was good. Basically all the shots that should be scored were made, but there was no way to reduce the score to single digits. Because the Heat scored, The Bulls are also scoring. The Heat's defense has always been fierce, which puts a lot of pressure on the Bulls' offense, but the Bulls can seize the opportunity to score, especially from the outside, today they are all open.

It's not that Xie Chen never thought about shooting three-pointers crazily to chase points on his own, but Xibo will never allow Xie Chen to make two consecutive three-pointers. He would rather let the other Heat players catch up. Fortunately, the Heat's Luol Deng, Wade and others are in average condition.

The entire arena was dull from the fourth quarter to the end, and everyone could tell that the Bulls played so well today, they were simply unstoppable, completely beyond their usual level, and their shooting percentage was astonishingly high. In a level-playing game, when you encounter such a situation, you can only admit defeat.

Coach Spoel originally demanded that the two home games must be won, but seeing how the game was played, he didn't want to waste time. In the last few minutes, Xie Chen Wade and other main players were all replaced, and the time became garbage time.

The Bulls also removed the main force. At this time, Jimmy Butler had scored 31 points, the highest score in the Bulls team. Rose scored 24 points. After the two left the field, they had no communication during the whole process, and they both had stern faces. There was no joy at all. , This makes the Heat feel so embarrassing, I have never seen anyone who wins and cries!

On the contrary, Noah was elated on the bench, with that cheap look and YD's laughter, he was afraid that Xie Chen and Chalmers would not be as angry.

Sitting on the bench and waiting for the team to lose is definitely a torment. This is the first playoff game Xie Chen lost.

Xie Chen looked at the score that was still increasing on the court, and sighed: "Oh, I didn't expect to lose just after winning the MVP, Derrick Rose, Jimmy Butler, hmph, I will definitely pay you back in the next game! "

The first game of the series was the most inconsequential game. The Bulls were not so strong that the Heat couldn't parry them. It was just a matter of luck today. They played very smoothly at the beginning and kept suppressing the Heat until the end. In the next game, it is absolutely impossible for the Bulls to be in such a good state, and it will be the Heat who will take the initiative.

In this regard, everyone has no doubts. Whether it is the coach, the main force or the substitute, everyone thinks that the next game will be different. After all, the Heat swept the Bulls in the regular season. A very good signal, that is our big center Hassan Whiteside "returned"!

In this game, Hasan scored 14 points, 14 rebounds and 5 blocks. If he played for a longer time, I believe the statistics would be even better, especially because he limited Gasol, which is commendable. In the series, if Hassan can always have the upper hand in the paint, then the Heat will surely win this series, because the combination of Jimmy Butler and Rose will not be better than Xie Chen and Wade, only worse than the two.

"Wade, we can't lose to those two guys in the next game." Xie Chen looked at Wade unwillingly.

Wade nodded: "Of course, we must win the next game."

In the end, the Bulls stole a victory at the Heat's home court, and they still won by a big score, but even if they won a big victory, the entire Bulls team was very cautious, because they knew very well that if they wanted to go 2-0 in an away game, it would be impossible. It is an impossible task. For Thibodeau, winning an away game is enough.

The Cavaliers are also a little happy to see the Bulls take the lead in winning the next game. For James, although he is sure to win any game, he does not want to face Wade, the old club, the Heat, or the spectator. The impenetrable Xie Chen.

"I hope the Bulls can solve the Heat for us." James prayed inwardly.

At the same time as the Heat and the Bulls finished, the first game between the Warriors and the Grizzlies in the Western Conference semifinals was also officially staged. Knowing that Xie Chen finally tasted the bitter fruit of losing the first playoff game, Curry couldn't express his happiness , I was very excited throughout the game.

"Hmph, this guy still wants to compete with me for the record of three-point goals in the playoffs. If you are directly eliminated by the Bulls, you won't even make it to the Eastern Conference finals. Let's see how you still compete with me!"

The more Curry thinks about it, the more proud he is. If the Heat really stop in the Eastern Conference semifinals, then the record of three-point goals in the playoffs will be properly their own! This year he wants to set a record, he wants to break a hundred!

Fortunately, the Grizzlies general Mike Conley was absent, and the Splash Brothers showed off together, scoring more than 40 points in total. Green also performed very well, and seemed to be competing with his competitor Jimmy Butler. In the last five minutes, the Grizzlies Almost no points were scored, and in the end, the Warriors were 1-0 to the Grizzlies.

On the second day, another two groups of duels ushered in, Cavaliers and Eagles, Clippers and Rockets.

At the Cleveland Cavaliers' home court, Love and Varejao all wore suits to help out on the sidelines, while James gathered a group of players in sportswear, full of leadership: "Brothers, the semifinal matchup is about to begin! This is our It’s a chance that we finally got, the opponent is strong, but we are even stronger! The Bulls and Warriors in the distance have already won a game, and they may be our opponents after us, don’t let them look down on you! Come on!”

"Come on!" Irving, Dellavedova and others all stretched out their arms and cheered up. With the cheers of the fanatical home fans, the whole momentum put a lot of pressure on the Eagles.

Because of James, everyone is more optimistic about the promotion of the Cavaliers. James can lead the whole team with the strength of one person, while the Eagles rely on the strength of the team to encircle James alone.

The Cavaliers have two personal fast break players with one-on-two, James and Irving, and two masters who can steal points quickly, JR and Shumpert, so the Eagles will attach great importance to the Cavaliers' fast break. Since entering the league in 2003, James can average 5.5 points per game through fast breaks. James is the best in this statistic. The other three players who can average more than 5 points per game in fast breaks are John Wall, Allen Iverson and Xie Chen. .

In the last game between the Heat and the Eagles in the regular season, Xie Chen went to chat with every Eagle, giving them confidence and advice, so that they could stop James in the series and meet them. In this game, Xie Chen and even the Bulls will watch. Xie Chen is particularly looking forward to seeing the scene where the eagle can overwhelm the knight.

After the opening, the Hawks continued their overall advantage. Five starters took turns to score, while the Cavaliers relied on singles. Unexpectedly, Smith broke out in the second quarter, coupled with the strong firepower of Irving and James, leading the score.

This continued until the fourth quarter, when the Eagles were in trouble.

Carroll of the Eagles suddenly sprained his knee when he made a fast break layup and fell to the ground in pain!

Seeing Carol's painful expression on the floor, Xie Chen also felt a little empathy: "Oh, it looks like the injury is not serious, the Eagles must not have the trouble of injury, otherwise, there is no way to stop this series. Knight."

This layup ended up falling to the ground after touching James, so many people thought it was a malicious foul by James, but in fact James had no reason to do so. In the end, when Carroll was kicked out by the two, James also took the initiative to go up. He patted Carol's chest and stepped forward to comfort him.

In the end, James scored 37 points, JR shot 8 three-pointers, and the Cavaliers led the Eagles 1-0.

After watching the match between the Cavaliers and the Eagles, Xie Chen patted his forehead: "Oh, it's still useless, the Eagles are still no match for the Cavaliers, and now they have injured another Carol. Huh..."

Xie Chen is completely on the eagle's side, sad like an eagle.

The Cavaliers have already won one game. Tomorrow, Xie Chen must win the second game between the Heat and the Bulls. Not only that, but also to ensure a complete away game. The Bulls must be won in the shortest possible time. Otherwise, the Cavaliers will occupy their energy advantage.

After the game between the Cavaliers and the Eagles, the Clippers and the Rockets have attracted much attention. In this round of the series, everyone is generally optimistic about the Clippers, but James Harden doesn’t think so. Overturning the Clippers, after Xie Chen lost the first game, he was teased miserably by Harden. It was a merciless ridicule. He even sent Xie Chen the GIF picture of Jimmy Butler blocking Xie Chen, and then Xie Chen quickly returned Harden with an identical block, but the blocked person was replaced by Harden himself.

Harden is too much, you yourself were blocked by Butler, and after being blocked, you were crushed and fell to the ground. In terms of losing face, you are even better!

But the nightclub Ha didn't care at all, saying that it was all a thing of the past, and now that he meets Butler, he must give him some flair.

Given that Harden is so high-profile and arrogant, Xie Chen and a group of friends had to sit together and enjoy this round of battle. Wade stood by his good brother Paul and supported the Clippers. It was impossible for Xie Chen to cheer for those who mocked him. , also stood on the side of the Clippers. Suddenly, the entire Heat became a base camp for Clippers fans.

In this game, the confrontation between Jordan Jr. and Warcraft Howard was the main event. Both of them were very violent, and Jr. Jordan was a fan of Howard, but today he not only blocked Howard, but also crazily ravaged the inside basket repeatedly. Howard is still young, and this game also showed his power, scoring 22 points, 10 rebounds and 5 blocks.

The game between the Clippers and the Rockets is very time-consuming. It is definitely the longest group in the series, because both sides "cut each other". You cut Howard, and I cut Jordan. Everyone was so relaxed, and the fans started to scold. Who likes to watch this kind of uninspiring game? Damn it, it's all about free throws! But Xie Chen looked very happy.

In addition to cutting each other, how to deal with Harden's foul is also a problem, but the Clippers seem to have already figured out a countermeasure.

Once James Harden rushed to the basket, I saw that when Harden actually made a layup, Jordan Jr. looked on and did not move. JJ Redick and Griffin all raised their arms. The scene was very funny.

"Hahaha, they dare not touch Harden, it's so funny."

Either raise your arms, or simply put them behind you. When defending Harden, it is like a handless animal. No matter how Harden wants to make a foul, it will not help.

In the end, Harden only scored 20 points, and the Clippers beat the Rockets.

Afterwards, Xie Chen inevitably sent a message to tease Harden. Reciprocity, unexpectedly, Harden quickly replied to Xie Chen: "The opponent is very cunning! I can't get to the free throw line!"
