Super All-around Point Guard

New York, Madison Square Garden. The Knicks host the Miami Heat.

In the third row of the auditorium, there are two young black men wearing cheap and loose clothes, who are talking about the game boredly. They are friends of Ci Shiping in Los Angeles, and they are specially invited by Ci Shiping today. Watch him play here.

"Did Ron take the wrong medicine recently? He even told us that he would score 40 points this game. Oh, God, he couldn't even average 10 points per game with the Knicks this season, and he still wanted to score 40 points. Points? I think we were fooled by him."

"Man, I don't care if he gets 40 points or 0 eggs. He said he would take us to have fun in New York, but he hasn't even reimbursed our air tickets. I don't have any hope for this bastard anymore. "

The two of them were not particularly good friends with Ci Shiping, they were just ordinary friends. In fact, Ci Shiping called a lot of people, so the two of them actually flew over to watch Ci Shiping play. His life was not rich, so how could he have the money to pay for the air tickets for his friends? He had snatched these two third-row seats from others through his connections.

Before the game started, Xie Chen, Wade, Hassan Whiteside and others stood on the sidelines reminiscing about old times and laughing non-stop, while Ci Shiping looked nervous and kept praying.

"I didn't expect that tonight would be the most glorious night of my career! I believe in Xie's ability. He will definitely help me score 40 points easily! Mom, I'm going to score 40 points in a single game. Can you believe it?"

Ci Shiping is still dreaming about good things, thinking that Xie Chen will help him score high points. In the peak period of the Pacers and Kings, he did not score 40 points. Now he is almost 40 years old, and he still fantasizes about being able to do it...

In tonight's game, Anthony continues to rest and Ci Shiping starts.

"Ron is the starter today. Maybe he can really score a lot of points in this game."

"He can't score 40 points as a starter. He couldn't do it ten years ago, let alone now? This guy is always bragging to us, saying that Xie Xie and Carmelo Anthony are his little brothers. I am nothing here. I didn’t even notice it!”

Ci Shiping’s friends are also looking forward to Ci Shiping’s performance.

When the ball was jumping, Ci Shiping suddenly blinked at Xie Chen and secretly made an OK gesture to Xie Chen. Xie Chen suddenly felt confused.

"What is Ci Shiping doing?" Xie Chen has no intention of achieving Ci Shiping's success in this game. This is against the Miami Heat. They are a strong team in the Eastern Conference. If he wants to help Ci Shiping score 30 points, then this There is no need to play a game, he will definitely lose. Ci Shiping's success rate is very worrying to Xie Chen.

The Knicks won the ball and then handed it to Xie Chen. Since he was playing a game with a group of old friends, Xie Chen was not so nervous or focused. He slowly passed the halftime because the game had just started. Everyone His movements were very slow. Xie Chen was also holding the ball at the top of the arc and made no moves.

Suddenly, Wade came forward and double-teamed Xie Chen with Dragic!

I have to say that the person who knows Xie Chen best in the league is Wade! Just now, when Xie Chen was dribbling on the spot for a few seconds, he seemed to be strategizing, but in fact he was distracted! He's thinking about something else!

Wade knew from the look in Xie Chen's eyes that Xie Chen was not thinking about the game right now, so he quickly stepped forward to double-team him. He knew Xie Chen too well, so he dared to take such a gamble.

Sure enough, as Wade expected, Xie Chen only reacted after Wade stepped forward to double-team him. He had no chance to break out of the encirclement and was trapped by Wade and Dragic, unable to move.

"What?" The fans couldn't believe it. Xie Chen was blocked by the Heat on his first ball?

Fortunately, Dragic and Wade are not very tall. Xie Chen protected the ball with both hands, looked at his teammates, and quickly passed the ball.

Xie Chen found that Ci Shiping was closest to him and there was no one defending him, so he passed the ball without thinking. After Ci Shiping received the ball, he decisively shot a three-pointer!

In the past, Ci Shiping would have paused, and since the attack time was sufficient, he would have usually given the ball to Xie Chen or Anthony. However, this time Ci Shiping preconceived the idea that Xie Chen would assist him to score high points, so he got the ball. The ball was released immediately.

Ci Shiping was lucky and scored the first three-pointer.

"This is my strength!" After Ci Shiping scored a goal, he clenched his fist fiercely. When he walked back, he did not forget to show off to his two friends in the audience: "Did you see it? It will be taken in less than ten seconds. It’s three points! Tonight you will witness the most powerful me!”

The two black men looked at me and I looked at you, not knowing what to say. Could it be that what Ci Shiping said was true? Could it be that Xie Chen really wanted to achieve Ci Shiping's success?

Ci Shiping was so proud that he secretly sighed that Xie Chen was so cunning. He even pretended to be distracted to attract Wade to double-team him, causing chaos in the opponent's defense, and then passed the ball over to assist him in scoring.

"You can think of such a crazy idea. I can't even give him 40 points tonight, hahaha!" Ci Shiping was secretly delighted.

Ci Shiping was really overthinking it. Xie Chen was not pretending to be distracted just now, but was really distracted!

The reason why Xie Chen started like this is because before the game, Fisher suddenly said: "Guys, we must go all out to show our strength in this game. If we go by our current winning rate and the opponent's winning rate, then at the end of the regular season , we may rush to fifth place in the Eastern Conference, and they will be fourth in the Eastern Conference, and they may be our opponents in the first round.”

Fisher is right, as long as Xie Chen and Anthony try their best, they will definitely win more than half of the remaining games, because this is their strength, and once this happens, the Knicks will have no chance to reach the top three in the Eastern Conference. There is a greater possibility of being in fifth place, while the Heat have been hovering in the third or fourth position. The two teams may become opponents in the first round.

Xie Chen should try to avoid two teams in the playoffs. One is the Chicago Bulls with Jordan Pippen Rodman, and the other is the Miami Heat with the Big Three of James Wade and Bosh!

Therefore, Xie Chen was thinking about a question just now. Should we win this game? Should we really try our best to win in the next many games?

No, that's definitely not the case. Xie Chen is not afraid that the team will end up in 8th place. In the first round, they will play the Cleveland Cavaliers, the strongest team in the Eastern Conference. Because the Cavaliers are strong, only the current team is strong. They have not been strong in the past. At least Xie Chen will not lose his ability, but it will be different when he encounters the Bulls and Heat. Once they play away games and lose their system ability, the series will definitely be very difficult. If the Heat and Bulls are the same as the Celtics and the Heat, It's okay for a team like the Lakers with an easy-to-play current roster, but they are at a time when their current and legendary teams are very scary.

After the game, Xie Chen had to think about this problem. Just now, Ci Shiping also benefited from Xie Chen's confusion and got an assist. He thought that Xie Chen deliberately created opportunities for him.

Xie Chen returned his attention to the game. Today he met his good brothers Wade and Whiteside and wanted to have a good battle. Whiteside said before the game that he would kill Xie Chen by more than five points in this game, but Xie Chen wanted to See if he has the strength.

Xie Chen and Whiteside, one is the strongest attacker in the league, and the other is the strongest defender in the league. Xie Chen can dunk on anyone's head unscrupulously, and Whiteside can also easily block anyone's shot. These two people are close friends and have known each other before they became famous. It is really a rare friendship and a rare competition.

Xie Chen took one step forward and quickly broke into the basket!

He wants to take the initiative to compete with Whiteside!

However, when he discovered Xie Chen's breakthrough, the most excited person was not others but Ci Shiping!

Ci Shiping immediately rushed out and followed Xie Chen. He knew that Xie Chen liked to play this kind of behind-the-back pass, which could surprise the opponent and allow Ci Shiping to score easily. Ci Shiping followed just to prepare for the pass. Xie Chen passed the ball.

"I'm right behind, good brother, just pass it to me!" Ci Shiping followed excitedly.

However, Xie Chen had no intention of passing it on to Ci Shiping.

Xie Chen was so fast that he didn't even know that Ci Shiping was following him. He jumped up towards Whiteside, dodged Whiteside's block in the air, and then used Rose's layup ability to pull up a difficult lever. The basket was successful, and Xie Chen won in the first round.

Seeing Xie Chen actually taking action with great difficulty, Ci Shiping who was following behind him was stunned for a moment.

"You actually hit it yourself? It must be a bad opportunity this time. He will definitely pass it to me next time!" Ci Shiping still believed that Xie Chen would help him.

However, the next time Xie Chen would rather risk a foul than pass it to Ci Shiping, which made Ci Shiping feel cold again.

When Ci Shiping helped Xie Chen up, he winked at Xie Chen and signaled that he was ready and would follow you. Please feel free to pass it on! Xie Chen remained indifferent.

After that, Xie Chen's attack with the ball again attracted the defense of everyone in the Heat. Xie Chen noticed that Derrick Williams from the baseline position was about to sneak inside, and the basket was already empty. As long as he gave him the ball, Williams Si can complete a dunk.

Therefore, Xie Chen handsomely made a pass without looking at anyone and casually threw it towards the basket.

"Finally passed the ball!" Who knew that Xie Chen's pass to Derrick Williams, Ci Shiping mistakenly thought it was for him!

Ci Shiping didn't notice Williams sneaking past the baseline at all. He only had eyes for the basketball. He and Williams took off almost at the same time, both going to the air to get the ball.

Then……

boom.

They were thrown over, and Ci Shiping's iron head hit Williams' head. Neither of them got the ball, and they both fell down. Fortunately, the ball finally hit Whiteside who came over. Out of bounds.

The collision between the two made the referee stunned and almost blew the whistle.

Ci Shiping's two friends in the audience burst into laughter.

"Hahaha, this guy is so funny. I wonder if he attacked the wrong target without knowing whether it was a teammate or an opponent."

"No, he stole the ball from his teammate. The ball was obviously passed to No. 23. Ron actually thought it was for him, so he jumped up and knocked him down. Haha. Ha ha."

Derrick Williams is also a bad-tempered man. What a great opportunity for a dunk. It would have been fine if his opponent had stopped him. It turned out to be a teammate! He really wanted to ask Ci Shiping what he was doing! It's just that he doesn't have the guts.

Xie Chen didn't know what Ci Shiping was up to, was he just joking? He had to help the two of them up and said: "I'm sorry, I didn't pass the ball well."

Unexpectedly, Ci Shiping came to Xie Chen's rescue: "You passed the message very well, but someone appeared where they shouldn't!"

After saying that, he rolled his eyes at Williams and was very angry that Williams stole the ball from him.

Seeing Williams' dumbfounded look, Luol Deng smiled and said secretly: "Fortunately, I am not teammates with Xie, otherwise, I would be the one who got hit this time."

Luo Erdeng felt that to be Xie Chen's teammate, one must be prepared to sacrifice.

Later, coach Fisher saw Williams touching his head from time to time. He was afraid that Williams would be injured by Ci Shiping's iron head, so he replaced him.

However, seeing Williams being substituted, Ci Shiping became more determined that Fisher and Xie Chen wanted to achieve their goals.

"Fisher is a friend I have been with for many years. I saw that Williams was not a good person and kept stealing the ball from me, so I replaced him. Well, they really wanted to succeed in me this time."

Ci Shiping is still stubborn and naive, thinking that Xie Chen and Fisher will help him become the protagonist of this game. When Xie Chen does not give him the ball, he will comfort himself by saying that there is no suitable opportunity and he is not impatient. , the whole person seemed particularly excited, and he spared no effort in defense.

Finally, he had an excellent opportunity to assist Ci Shiping to score.

Xie Chen stole the ball outside the three-point line in the backcourt!

The front court was empty, enough for Xie Chen and Ci Shiping to score points freely.

"Hahaha, hahaha, brother's fifth point is finally coming!" Ci Shiping was ecstatic. Seeing Xie Chen holding the ball quickly, he followed him.

Needless to say, this was the moment for Xie Chen to perform a dunk. However, this time, everyone unexpectedly discovered that Ci Shiping was following Xie Chen. The Heat's defensive players gave up chasing. Ci Shiping was doing the same thing as before. What?

Ci Shiping's two friends also chuckled.

"This ball will tell you who is the big brother and who is the little brother."

Xie Chen held the ball and quickly dropped it. He had already figured out how to dunk the ball, which was to imitate the postman's classic dunk, but he found Ci Shiping following behind him!

"Why is this guy following you here? Do you want me to pass an alley-oop to him? But he can't dunk it now!" Xie Chen was very embarrassed. If Ci Shiping insisted on performing, Xie Chen could help him, but the problem It's because Ci Shiping's bounce has deteriorated so much that he can no longer perform any wonderful dunk performances. Instead of giving him a layup, it's better to dunk it yourself.

Then, Xie Chen jumped up and dunked using the postman's gesture of touching the back of his head.

Ci Shiping followed Xie Chen all the way, excited all the way, until Xie Chen completed the dunk.

"He dunked it?" Ci Shiping finally stopped, but his two friends were already laughing crazy.
