Super All-around Point Guard

The maverick Xie Chen continues to subvert the three views of the league. He sometimes dozed off during the game. Kobe Bryant did this, but he had never made such a blatant statement that he wanted to take a nap. Opponents like the Heat also I felt helpless.

In fact, sleep has always been a big problem for NBA players. If you ask NBA players what their biggest wish is besides the championship, then 80% of them will tell you that they want to sleep. In this money-filled alliance, sleeping has become a "luxury" for these rich people.

At halftime, the Knicks ended the first half with a two-point lead. The battle continued, and everyone focused on the second half.

During the halftime break, many people guessed that Xie Chen might take a good rest in the locker room.

The halftime break in the NBA is 15 minutes, which is already a long break. Fortunately, the NBA is a for-profit organization and needs to give more time for advertising on television.

When he arrived at the locker room, Xie Chen sat on a chair and leaned in front of his wardrobe and closed his eyes to rest. Because the visiting team's locker room was very small, Xie Chen didn't want to take up much space. He could just sit and sleep like this. Others might also I was infected by Xie Chen. When I saw Xie Chen sleeping, everyone wanted to sleep. After all, they are all professional athletes. Each person's playing time may be slightly different, but everyone went to sleep at one time and did the same training. Even a substitute who doesn't play for one minute is still qualified to complain about being tired or sleepy.

The visiting team's locker room was exceptionally clean. After a while, Heat president Pat Riley walked in, said hello to Fisher, and then stepped forward and patted Xie Chen's leg. Xie Chen woke up and saw Riley. He said to him: "Would you like me to prepare a room for you so you can sleep for a while?"

Xie Chen shook his head and said, "No, that's fine."

Pat Riley is a tough coach, but he also cares about the players' health. NBA players really need more sleep, but what can be done? The league is like this now. If it were the 1960s and 1970s, the players might be a little more relaxed and not as tired as they are now. Maybe they should hate the basketball emperor Chamberlain, because the shooting training that became popular in the league started because of Chamberlain.

During the halftime break, O'Neal and Smith, who were in the live broadcast room, also discussed this issue.

O'Neal said: "LeBron James and Xie are the stars that I like very much after leaving the league. They both have their own ideas and are not influenced by others. I like this. This is very cool. If you are a superstar, you can't be too disciplined and honest. To put it bluntly, I tried to sleep countless times when I was playing, but I never succeeded. Xie did nothing wrong. He was not playing on the court, so whether he slept or not had no impact on the team."

Kenny Smith also laughed and said: "That's right, but sleep is really a big test for modern NBA players, and as the league becomes more commercialized and globalized, it also means more time for interviews, During the training time, these guys will have shorter rest time, and I understand Xie’s behavior very well.”

Both of them have played in the NBA and been professional players, so they have a deep understanding of Xie Chen's experience. O'Neal continued: "Take today's game as an example. At the end of the game, it must be at least It's ten o'clock in the evening, and they also have to take a shower, change clothes, accept interviews, and attend the post-match press conference. After doing all of this, these guys must be extremely hungry, right? Next, they have to eat some late-night snacks. If you It goes without saying that he is the prince of nightclubs. No matter how self-disciplined you are, you will not go to bed until at least two in the morning. This is still referring to the Miami Heat players at home. Thanks to them, they may not be able to return to the big bed in the hotel until three in the morning. , and the team will have training early the next morning, and they only have about five hours of sleep a day."

"And they're missing out on the best time for sleep between 10 p.m. and 2 a.m.," adds Kenny Smith.

O'Neal said: "Yes, poor sleep will significantly slow down a person's reaction time. It may only take 0.1 seconds for a person to miss a defense. Do you know why I am not the historical shot-blocking leader? It's because of me It’s because I don’t get enough rest, otherwise, every time those guys lay up in front of me, I would knock them to the ground!”

After hearing this, Smith laughed and said: "Hahaha, anything can prevent you from achieving greatness."

The league is a business. What is certain is that the league will definitely not shorten the 82-game regular season, because more games means more income from advertising, TV broadcast rights, and ticket sales. Therefore, the problem of sleep can only be solved by The players have to figure it out themselves.

The intermission ended quickly. After this 15-minute rest, Xie Chen felt energetic and could play at full strength at any time.

The game entered the second half, and James also came back to watch the game. Seeing that Xie Chen finally stopped sitting on the bench with his eyes closed, he couldn't help laughing: "Xie finally stopped sleeping. In fact, I also asked Adam about rest. Xiao Hua, I hope he can extend the All-Star Weekend, but unfortunately my suggestion is of no use."

Owen smiled and said: "Maybe you should go find him with Xie, maybe he will try to think about it."

After the game restarted, the Knicks' two-point lead was instantly wiped out by Gerald Green's breakthrough layup. After that, as Winslow continued to attack the Knicks' basket, relying on the substitutes Head to head, the Heat became the leading side.

Some people say that Xie Chen used a crazy first quarter to finally take the lead, but it had no effect at all and even exhausted himself to death. In fact, Xie Chen was already very satisfied. Fortunately, he was leading by more than 10 points at that time. Otherwise, The score can't be so close now. Xie Chen has the ability now, so even if he falls behind, it won't be a big deal.

The coach first sent Anthony on the court and asked Xie Chen to rest for a while. Anthony's performance was already good, scoring 4 points in a row as soon as he came on the court, but the Knicks still couldn't stop the Heat's scoring momentum and the point difference did not close.

Seeing that the team was already 8 points behind and Xie Chen had had enough rest, Fisher patted Xie Chen on the shoulder and said, "Leave it to you."

Xie Chen nodded and came back on stage!

"Xie is back on stage again!"

Every time Xie Chen re-appears at the American Airlines Arena, it will arouse strong attention from fans, whether as a Heat player or a player from other teams, because Xie Chen's appearance means a change in the game, and he has this ability. people.

Many netizens saw Xie Chen reappearing on the stage, and they also posted: "Xie Chen is so arrogant that he slept on the court, let's see how well he can play!"

The Heat's main players have all returned to their positions. Joe Johnson, Wade, and Luol Deng have all gotten themselves into the best shape again. They have to guard Xie Chen!

Luol Deng suddenly made a passing error, and Anthony pushed the ball into the air. The two of them were the closest to the basketball, but unexpectedly, it was Xie Chen who was two meters behind them who grabbed the ball in the end.

The two were just about to jump to compete, but they didn't expect Xie Chen to fly past like a gust of wind, flying directly between the two to pick the ball away. The speed and lightness of his movements were astonishing.

After Xie Chen stole the ball, he went straight to the frontcourt. Xie Chen walked from the left and Derrick Williams walked on the right. There was only one Heat defensive player in the middle. There was almost no suspense about scoring in this fast break. .

Xie Chen did not speed up to the basket again, but passed the ball to the right without looking at anyone, and threw the ball to Williams. Williams received the ball and dunked directly!

"What a quick steal, what a cool pass! It's like he's possessed by Magic Johnson!"

It can be completely seen from this attack that Xie Chen is full of energy again, no longer trapped by physical strength, and has performed better on the court. No one will blame you for your past actions.

Action is always the best way to respond to others.

"Xie and Derrick Williams advance so fast. They are already the most threatening fast break duo of the New York Knicks." Pat Riley thought carefully. Although Anthony and Xie Chen are aces, But in terms of fast break speed, Anthony's pace has been a little slow, and he is not as good as Derrick Williams, who was born in the 90s. Derrick Williams may not have as diverse offenses as Anthony, but with his explosive power and amazing dunks Ability is enough to help Xie Chen.

Pat Riley is also aware of the Knicks' potential threat. It is true that the Heat cannot prevent Xie Chen's fast break, but can they stop Derrick Williams? There seems to be no solution.

"It's only six points away. Will Xie catch up with two three-pointers?" Heat fans gradually felt uneasy, because in the past when Xie Chen was in the Heat, the team was 6 points behind, and Xie Chen used two three-pointers to catch up. A three-pointer did this.

But fortunately, the Heat were in good shape today. When Xie Chen threw the ball to Hassan, Hassan easily succeeded with a high throw after catching the ball.

"Hassan has really improved a lot..." Xie Chen looked at Hassan who scored again and couldn't help but admire. In just one year, Hassan wouldn't have improved so much even if he trained hard every day. ? This made Xie Chen miss last season very much. If Hassan was so strong at that time, playing the Cavaliers wouldn't be so hard.

Since the other side shoots two points and returns it with two points, Xie Chen shoots a three-pointer!

Whether he attacks with the ball, relies on screens to get rid of the defense, obtains shooting space through dribbling, or shoots when the opponent clearly knows that he is going to shoot, the final result is still the same goal!

Uh-huh!

Three points into the net!

"Oh my god, what a high arc, why is the hit rate so high for such a shot! Are Xie and Stephen Curry people from the earth?" The fans at the scene were helpless.

The Warriors generals who were watching the ball also looked helpless. Iguodala asked Stephen Curry directly: "Are you sure this is not your brother? Is he interested in three-pointers and this kind of shooting posture?" The same certainty, which is too strange.”

Stephen Curry was also about to cry. He originally thought that he was the only one in the league who could shoot so accurately that his opponents would go crazy with helplessness. But seeing Xie Chen shooting three-pointers, he himself was helpless and going crazy!

Since he was born in Kuli, why should he be born in Xiechen?

This time the Heat finally failed to respond to Xie Chen in the same way. After that, Xie Chen scored points one after another and tied the score a few minutes later!

No one will accuse Xie Chen of being arrogant and ignoring his opponents anymore, because Xie Chen has the capital! Almost single-handedly sweeping the Raptors has proven Xie Chen's strength. He doesn't need to pay too much attention to the Heat. Many people don't know that without the threat of the legendary Heat, Xie Chen would have played very easily in these two games.

"It seems that their series is going to be a one-to-one draw. Then when they return to the Knicks' home court, I'm afraid the Heat will face a dilemma." Draymond Green said, looking at the situation on the court.

Coach Cole said: "Don't rush to make a conclusion. Let's take a look at Xie's physical condition in the fourth quarter. Moreover, the Heat's shooting percentage is very high today, so they may not have no chance of winning."

Many people are worried about Xie Chen's physical problems in the fourth quarter, because in the fourth quarter of the last game, Xie Chen did not step up to score, which caused the game to fall into a stalemate. He lost because he missed the buzzer-beater. After losing the game, if the Knicks still want to take a gamble at the last minute, the chances of winning are undoubtedly not good. They have to find a way to get a reassuring lead before then.

After playing in the fourth quarter, Xie Chen quickly responded to these doubts.

Xie Chen hit Luol Deng with his back, and Luol Deng tried his best to resist. He was confident to cope with the force Xie Chen exerted on his body, but he was not confident to cope with Xie Chen's shooting. Wade saw that the situation was not good, and Xie Chen wanted to go solo. Eat Luo Erdeng and quickly step forward to attack Xie Chen!

However, Xie Chen did not change his style of play because of Wade's arrival. He did not pass the ball, did not stop, and continued to turn around and shoot according to his original plan! Facing the defense of two people!

Luol Deng and Wade both jumped up and stretched out their arms to block Xie Chen. Xie Chen moved his body backward in the air, and then made a picturesque fadeaway jumper like Jordan. The basketball started from Luol Deng and Wade. The palm of his hand flew out. Xie Chen's body in the air was already very exaggerated. People doubted whether such a difficult move could be made. Maybe if it had been someone else, he might not even be able to touch the basket, right?

Uh-huh!

Another crisp sound of falling into the net!

"Faced with two people defending, you can still score such a goal!" Livingston of the Warriors was really convinced. He often played fadeaway jumpers after post-ups. He knew the difficulty and need of this action. Exhausted physical strength.

"It seems that Xie's physical strength is not a problem at all. The Heat may die at the hands of Xie alone." Livingston said.

Later, Xie Chen showed no mercy, dunking twice in front of his old club, and never stopped making three-pointers! The Knicks regain the lead!

However, there was a problem that none of them noticed.
