Super All-around Point Guard

Chapter 588 No longer a hero?

Green and Xie Chen, who were jumping in the air at the same time, seemed to be here to grab the rebound, but they had completely different predictions about this ball.

Xie Chen felt that this back-to-the-basket shot should be able to go in. He had tried it many times in the shooting position just now. Iguodala, who was guarding him, did not make any interfering movements, so the hit rate should be very high. The reason why he rushed over so nervously was Take precautions before they happen. After all, this attack is so important. It can be said to determine the outcome of this game.

Green believes that the ball will definitely pop up. It is impossible for anyone to make a shot without even looking at the basket. Moreover, Xie Chen's shot like this at such a critical moment is obviously intended to create a second offense.

The speed of both of them is too fast. There is no result yet on whether the basketball enters the net or pops out. Neither of them dares to reach out rashly in the air, otherwise it will interfere with the ball. Green may be used to doing this when in physical contact with others. It was a small move, and since he had always been a mortal enemy of Xie Chen, when the two came into contact, Green bumped Xie Chen very covertly with his elbow.

Xie Chen felt Green's impact and lost control of his body on the spot. Because he also had a certain degree of confidence in the ball, in order to win the foul more naturally, he fell to the floor.

The referee blew the whistle a little slowly. Green thought that the crisis for Xie Chen was relieved at first. Without Xie Chen to grab the rebound with him, this time the defensive rebound was his. Then he launched a counterattack to directly tie the score... Everything will go in a direction that is beneficial to the Warriors.

But I never expected it.

Draymond Green suddenly became shocked! Because he was closest to the basket and watched the basketball fall into the net with his own eyes!

"What? The ball went in?!" Green suddenly didn't know what to do in mid-air.

At the same time, as Xie Chen lost control and fell to the ground, the referee also blew the whistle and whistled for Draymond Green's foul on Xie Chen!

"No!" Green held his head after landing, unable to believe that all of this was true!

A two-point goal was scored, and Xie Chen had to make another free throw!

The Warriors, who originally had hopes of tying the score, once again lost sight of the door to hope!

Draymond Green originally thought he would be the hero of this game. When Xie Chen shot with his back to the basket, he reacted the fastest. He rushed to the basket to stop Xie Chen in order to successfully grab the rebound. He did not hesitate to use a little trick. Unexpectedly, the basketball went in and Xie Chen had to make another free throw, but he became the sinner of the Warriors' loss!

There was a dead silence at the Oracle Arena. There were not many fans holding their heads in their hands and looking shocked like Green. Among them was a black woman whose movements and expressions were exactly the same as Green's. This woman was Green's mother.

Green's mother, Mary Barber, had a great influence on Green. In fact, Mary once had a basketball dream, but in high school, she threw a basketball on the coach's head during a dispute. Then, her basketball dream also followed. Broken, she actually always wanted to see Green fighting on the basketball court.

It’s hard to say that Green’s fiery character didn’t come from Mary’s influence.

Her son made a very big mistake, and Mary, as a mother, also felt very ashamed.

The Warriors' home court is depressing, but outside the arena around the world, there is indeed excitement and joy.

Yang Jian burst out laughing: "Oh my God, Xie Chen actually scored this goal! And he also tricked Green into committing a foul and had to make another free throw! No one expected that this most important attack would be so dramatic. It was obtained in a certain way, Director Zhang, this kind of goal should be the first time in the finals in NBA history, right?"

Zhang Weiping nodded and said: "In all the years I have been commentating, this is the first time I encountered someone shooting with the basket behind his back in the finals. Xie Chen must be very confident in his speed in grabbing rebounds. He wanted to make a second tip-in. , I didn’t expect the ball to go in, and Green pushed Xie Chen in the air again. Xie Chen’s luck today is really good.”

Regarding Xie Chen's back-to-the-basket shot, most people thought it was a lucky shot. Only one person knew that shooting with his back to the basket was not necessarily a fool's errand. As long as there were enough practices, the same touch could be developed.

Qing Qing, the inventor of the back-to-the-basket shot, looked surprised: "He actually used my moves?"

The combination of hot body and cute face makes this woman more attractive. She was originally angry that Xie Chen imitated her, but gradually, she started to think about Xie Chen using her moves at such a critical moment. , does Qingqing also have a place in Xie Chen's heart, is Xie Chen also interested in Qingqing?

Xie Chen is now the most popular star in the sports world. He has captured the hearts of countless girls just like Beckham back then. It is difficult for Qingqing to resist Xie Chen’s super strength and fame. Women always love to fantasize. When they think of Xie Chen Chen You might remember her, but the beauty's heart started pounding and she became restless. She threw herself on the bed and saw that the quilt was constantly squirming...

Xie Chen was hit by Green, but fortunately it was nothing serious. Xie Chen made the free throw steadily, opening the point difference to 5 points.

Originally, the Warriors chased the point difference to 2 points and thought they had a chance to win. Unexpectedly, the point difference was wider than before.

The Warriors must make at least one two-pointer and one three-pointer in the last few dozen seconds, which is really difficult.

The Knicks did not give the Warriors such a chance. The Knicks tried their best to prevent the Warriors' next attack. After that, the Warriors could only adopt foul tactics. No matter who made the Knicks' free throws, they did not miss a free throw. The Warriors officially confirmed that they had lost the game!

At this moment, the fans in New York began to celebrate.

"The Knicks and the Warriors tied one to one! Many people thought that this series would be a sweep and the least suspenseful series in the history of the Finals. Everyone guessed wrong again. Xie Chen's return turned the Knicks into We have created a magical team, and they can defeat the powerful Cavaliers. I believe the Warriors will also be in a lot of trouble. Audience friends, let us look forward to the third game between the Warriors and the Knicks! See you then!"

On the court, a very unwilling Curry shook hands with Xie Chen and said goodbye. In this game, Xie Chen shot more three-pointers than Curry, and he also won the ball. Curry was defeated twice, but he was very unwilling to lose: " Thanks, why is your luck always so good?"

Xie Chen said with a smile: "I don't deny that I have good luck, but even if the goal was not scored, I will still win today."

"We'll see, our duel has just begun." Curry snorted disdainfully and walked away.

Curry is right, the finals have only really begun from now on. Although he won this game, Xie Chen also realized the strength of his opponent. He originally wanted to defeat the Warriors in one go. He once widened the point difference to 20 points. But in the end, he was chased by the Warriors with only 2 points left. Xie Chen showed no reservations about his ability, but still couldn't stop it. This shows that the Warriors are far stronger than Xie Chen imagined.

After the game, the entire Knicks team did not spend the night here. They took a special plane and rushed back to New York overnight. They would arrive in the early morning. Xie Chen was probably the one who was most eager to return home. He was only separated from Katie Suri for one day. Xie Chen missed her so much.

It was already late at night and close to early morning. These players had just played such a fierce game. Logically speaking, they should be very tired and had gone to bed long ago. However, on the plane, everyone was still chatting excitedly.

Ci Shiping was the most active: "I guess the Warriors guys are still training next to the coach. Haha, today's game was so exciting. We beat the Warriors from the beginning, and then the Warriors chased them throughout the game. , finally caught up to only two points in the last minute, and when he was about to equalize the score, Xie turned his back to the basket and threw it in casually! He also tricked that stupid kid Green into a foul, haha, really It’s fun to think about it, I guess the Warriors have never lost such a frustrating game.”

In addition to Ci Shiping, others also felt that this victory was very happy, because in the first game, the Knicks were mistreated by these guys. This time Xie Chen returned and finally taught these arrogant guys a lesson. , I believe they will never dare to underestimate the Knicks again.

Derrick Williams said: "Boss, I really want to thank you. You don't know that when these guys played in the first game, they couldn't seem to see us in their eyes. They were very arrogant."

Xie Chen said with a smile: "I originally wanted to beat them by 20 or 30 points in this game, but I didn't expect that they would catch up. The Warriors are quite difficult to deal with. They are more difficult to beat than the Cavaliers. Brothers, the showdown in the finals is over. It has just begun, so don’t get too happy too early.”

Although he took away a victory from the Warriors' home court, Xie Chen still felt that the Warriors were too difficult to deal with. Xie Chen played so well that this game was barely a narrow victory. Fortunately, he played two consecutive home games. Don't worry about losing ability. As long as you can win these two games in a row, turn the score into 3:1, and get the match point, the finals will be easy to play.

No one knew that after the game, the Warriors did not go home individually. All of them were left in the arena by coach Cole. How could Cole not know Xie Chen’s craziness and super high winning rate when playing at home? ? Next, the Warriors will play two consecutive games at the Knicks' home court, with a score of 1:1, which makes Kerr worried.

The players gathered in a circle. Coach Cole, who had always been thin, didn't even eat dinner. He looked tired but still pinched his waist very seriously and said to the players: "I know you really want to sleep, rest, and not think about the game. But I'm sorry, you have to stay here to practice tonight. Go check the winning percentage of our opponents at home in the playoffs, oh, I'm talking about the winning percentage when Xie plays, you will understand me Why do we do this? We have two away games next. If we lose these two away games, our championship will not be a concern."

Iguodala didn't study Xie Chen deeply and couldn't understand: "I don't think we can win even one game on the road. Even the Spurs can't sweep us at home."

Before Cole could speak, Draymond Green explained to Iguodala: "You don't understand Xie. Xie's performance at home is amazingly stable. He occasionally performs poorly in away games or has physical problems. But at home, from the regular season to the playoffs, he never performed abnormally, and often had big outbursts. This guy seems to particularly like playing at home."

Green's explanation was exactly what Cole wanted to say. Cole continued: "We beat the Knicks by more than 30 points in the first game. At that time, I thought we and the Knicks were two completely different teams! But the opponent With just one more person, they actually defeated us, and at the highest point they were ahead of us by 20 points!”

Coach Cole, who had always been gentle and funny, became angry, and all the players lowered their heads and dared not speak.

Cole glanced at these players and continued: "I am very satisfied with your performance in the last two quarters, but I cannot tolerate your previous performance. Carefully recall how many scoring opportunities you missed and forget about that damn first place." Let’s put down that damn pride! We are not qualified to relax in front of our opponents. Tonight, each of you will practice shooting three-pointers for me here. Xie took advantage of him to the extreme. We must also use our greatest advantage. To the extreme, I still believe that no matter how strong Xie is, he can’t win against our team!”

After listening to Cole's words, everyone felt guilty. Indeed, at the beginning of the game, because they beat the Knicks by so many points in the previous game, their mentality was indeed a little relaxed. Some also looked down on the Knicks and did not take the Knicks' offensive wave seriously. , if we had played well right from the start, maybe it would be 2-0 now.

Kerr asked everyone to practice shooting three-pointers, but he called Stephen Curry aside.

Curry followed Cole to the side and said with a smile: "Coach, are you planning on letting us beat them with three-pointers in the next game?"

Coach Cole looked at Curry very seriously and said: "Curry, as a coach, I feel really lucky to have a player like you. I have always protected you and indulged you. But now, I have to say, you are no match for Xie.”

Curry looked ugly, and Cole was also embarrassed. As the coach of the team, he had to admit that his players were not as good as his opponents. What's more, Curry is a player with strong self-esteem, and Xie Chen has always been Curry's nemesis. .

But Cole had to do it.

Cole said: "Give up the meaningless competition with Xie, forget any grudges between him and you, treat him as an ordinary opponent, and let us use the strength of the team to defeat him, okay? Stephen Curry?"

Cole is worried that Curry cares too much about his opponent Xie Chen and wants to be more serious with Xie Chen in the game, which will put the Warriors at a disadvantage. If the person who confronts Curry is Lillard, Westbrook or Paul, Kohl Everyone would boldly ask Curry to do it, but that person is Xie Chen! It’s the omnipotent Xie Chen! There is no way Curry can beat him!

Think about this game, Curry and Xie Chen played three-pointers against Biao. Curry obviously wanted to let others see that his three-pointers were higher than Xie Chen's in the finals. Curry even imitated Xie Chen to play high. Although the dunk was a successful dunk, there are various signs that Curry's approach may harm the Warriors.

Curry wants to be a hero like Xie Chen, but the difference is that he has a better team.

After a long silence, Curry finally nodded: "Okay."
