Super All-around Point Guard

Playing at home, Xie Chen doesn't have to worry about physical problems. Continuous battles are not a problem for Xie Chen. He has long been accustomed to playing two games in a row. He doesn't need to rest at all. Even if he is really tired, it will not affect his shooting. Rate.

The Knicks made a strange move, which caught the entire Warriors team off guard and made Curry, who was resting off the court, unable to hold back. It was not a comfortable thing to watch his mortal enemy abuse his substitute teammates on the court.

"If we were in this situation, maybe I would do the same." Curry can understand Xie Chen's mood of fighting to the death. If the Warriors are given a match point by their opponents, then Curry will not show the same fighting spirit as Xie Chen. Mr. Chen.

In the past, Xie Chen was able to come back and win when he was 0:3 behind his opponent in a series. The Warriors would never dare to take it lightly.

Xie Chen stayed on the court until the Warriors' strongest lineup had yet to take a break. The Warriors also began to counterattack crazily in the second half of the second quarter. Everyone thought that Xie Chen had been so exhausted on the court and had made many shots before. , but instead will miss the shot at this moment. But what is surprising is that Xie Chen's shot is still very stable. As long as the opportunity arises, he can basically hit it.

Yang Jian was surprised: "Hey, Xie Chen's shooting touch is really good. It seems that he played hard today. I just don't know if Xie Chen can hold on at the end of the game."

Director Zhang Weiping also said: "There is no need to be so pessimistic. If we keep playing at Xie Chen's shooting rate, maybe the Knicks will win the Warriors in the third quarter. If they can lead by many points, then there will be no impact if there are any physical problems in the end." . And the Knicks still have Anthony."

Zhang Weiping is right, including the fans at the scene, who think so. It is best to take the lead early and make the game without suspense early, but the Warriors are obviously not a team that will be easily defeated.

With one and a half minutes left in the second quarter, the Knicks still led the Warriors by 15 points. Curry looked at Xie Chen, who had not rested for a minute, and then at Knicks coach Fisher. Neither of them When Xie Chen was asked to leave the game, Curry couldn't help but ask Xie Chen: "Are you really planning to play the entire first half?"

"Can't you?" Xie Chen replied coldly.

"You have the guts! But don't get too proud too soon. As long as we catch up in the second half, you will be finished!" Curry also showed no sign of weakness. He felt that Xie Chen's style of play was too desperate. Xie Chen was not an iron man. Being beaten by such a You will definitely get tired of using it. During the Thunder playoffs this year, coach Donovan used Dewey all the time, and Durant was used for the last shot without even touching it.

As soon as the two exchanged insults, Xie Chen immediately performed an alley-oop dunk. After dunking, Xie Chen responded to Curry: "We can catch up later."

Curry was very angry. If it was a regular season matchup, Curry would have responded to Xie Chen himself, but he couldn't do that in the finals. Klay Thompson could do whatever he wanted, because he is the one who ends the offense, but Curry couldn't. , the whole team depends on him to be active, and he must find the most suitable attack point.

It's scary when a team like the Warriors is scary, especially the confidence and winner's aura that each of them has, which will not disappear even if they are 20 points behind. However, when the opponent's defense is very good, they There isn't much that can be done. The Warriors have superstars, but they don't have the kind of superstars who can unreasonably score goals under high-intensity defense.

Jordan, Kobe, and LeBron James can do it, but Curry and Thompson can't. This is the difference between the two superstars.

Speaking of which, it is also the difference in physical talent. The biggest benefit of physical talent is to hit shots when the opponent is clearly defensive. Kevin Durant is an example, and the Warriors must always rely on the team.

The Warriors failed to score in the last two attacks, leaving Xie Chen with a chance to shoot a three-pointer. Xie Chen took the shot at the last second and was still able to hit the shot!

At the end of the half, the Knicks led the Warriors by a full 20 points!

The whole audience roared, and Yang Jian exclaimed: "Xie Chen played for two whole quarters. I was always worried that he was tired. I didn't expect that he could hit a super long three-pointer in the last second of the half. Oh my god, If it had been anyone else, I guess they wouldn’t even be able to touch the frame, right?”

Zhang Weiping also expressed his surprise: "It's true. I saw Durant was so tired that he shot the ball some time ago. Xie Chen's physical strength is really amazing!"

At halftime, the Knicks led the Warriors by a full twenty points, which embarrassed those who were preparing to celebrate the Warriors' championship here. Those who were always ready to move boxes with Warriors championship jerseys and ball caps to the court. Staff, do you think you don’t have to do this tonight?

Bill Russell also complained to Adam Silver: "Mr. President, you made me, an old guy, travel in vain. You really don't understand the hard work of the elderly. It seems that I have to fly to Oakland with you." .”

Adam Silver also smiled and apologized: "Sorry, Mr. Russell, I didn't expect them to be so tenacious, but I guess there will be problems with Xie's physical fitness in the second half, and the Warriors may reverse the score at any time."

Russell replied: "I don't know whether the Golden State Warriors can reverse the score, but as an old man who has played basketball all his life, I think that kid Chrissy, even if he played the entire first half, his physical condition is worse than It’s better for anyone.”

…

Knicks locker room.

"Thank you, how do you feel?" Fisher handed Xie Chen a towel.

After taking it, Xie Chen wiped it on his face and replied: "I'm fine. I still have to play the full third quarter."

Hearing Xie Chen say these words, other Knicks players were stunned for a moment. Porzingis even looked at Xie Chen with admiring eyes. Isn't that awesome? It's not enough to play the first half, but also three quarters? Do you really want to play the whole game? That would really make history!

At this time, Anthony also said: "The third quarter is very important. We can't let them have a chance to catch up. I also have to play the entire third quarter."

"So can I," Derrick Williams said.

Porzingis paused and said, "Coach, I can do that too."

Ci Shiping, who has always wanted to appear on the finals stage, said: "I think we need to calm down now."

…

During the half-time break, the referees were not idle either. As referees of the game, they have to run back and forth on both sides of the court at all times. They must have the most correct response to every ball and every emergency situation at the first time. Penalties are very demanding, both physically and mentally, and the referees are no better than the athletes. They are all older, so this "consumption" is not small for them.

However, during the halftime break, the referees were not only taking a break to drink water and replenish their energy, they also had serious things to do.

At this time, the three referees came together to discuss problems that might occur in the second half.

Being a referee in the playoffs is not an easy thing. You must have at least seven years of NBA refereeing experience to be qualified to become a referee in the playoffs.

Referee Dan Crawford said to the other two referees: "The Knicks' No. 0 player was very emotional tonight, and he has already played the entire first half. In order to win, he may continue to play the entire second half. By then His shooting may become inaccurate due to his physical fitness. I predict that his offense will get closer and closer to the basket. We must always keep an eye on his movements under the basket. When necessary, we need to call him for consecutive offensive fouls. He calmed down."

These referees have not dealt with Xie Chen once or twice. Many times Xie Chen would flip over as soon as he rushed to the basket, knocking the defensive players to the ground. They also helped Xie Chen with many 2+1 calls, but this time They have to be careful in the game. For a 193cm defender, he can't always be someone else's fault, right?

The third quarter started quickly. As everyone expected, Xie Chen continued to fight on the court without any sign of taking a break. Moreover, the Warriors also began to counterattack, quickly catching up to 12 points. Then, Anthony and Xie Chen's Scored consecutive points, stabilizing the point difference and preventing the Warriors from catching up to single digits.

After listening to the words of the referee, the three referees paid attention to Xie Chen's attack on the basket. However, Xie Chen was still very accurate from the outside and did not go all out to get to the basket to commit a foul. This surprised the three referees, but It is also more relaxed, because at that time, Xie Chen is too anxious to score points and wants to draw a foul at the basket. They don’t know whether to give it to him or not. If it is still an offensive foul from Xie Chen, then it will be lively. Yes, with Xie Chen's bad temper, he may exchange curses with the referee. Although the referee can give Xie Chen a technical foul, they don't want a superstar to be so jealous and curse them.

Seeing that the third quarter was coming to an end and the Warriors were still 17 points behind, Yang Jian couldn't help but sigh: "The Warriors really used all their available tricks in this quarter, and their restrictions on Xie Chen were as strong as ever, but... Still couldn't stop Xie Chen, Xie Chen already scored 46 points in three quarters, and he didn't show any signs of getting tired!"

Zhang Weiping also marveled: "It's amazing. What a strange person! I've seen people play the whole game, but I've never seen people play the whole game and still be out of breath and still shoot so accurately. The Knicks really fought hard with the Warriors today. It seemed like I'm saying, I know you have many good players, but we only have these few, but we only play these few, and we have been wasting you all this time."

Coach Cole's thoughts are also very confused. His original plan was to let Xie Chen score less than 30 points, but now he has not been able to do it. Xie Chen has been on the court for too long, and almost every attack is made by him. Processing, and most of the scoring is done by him. Now Cole can only wait for Xie Chen's physical fitness to decline.

In the fourth quarter, Coach Cole angrily lectured the players: "Our opportunity will appear in the last quarter, keep your focus at all times, and seize the opportunity as soon as it comes! I don't want to go back to To win the championship at home, I want to win the championship tonight. Listen clearly, it’s tonight! We are still more than ten points behind, go and make up for that damn point difference!”

Coach Kerr, who has always been funny and humorous, rarely loses his temper and talks to his players because he knows very well that once the Knicks drag him to the seventh game, even if the Warriors are at home, everything will change too much. He must strive to win tonight. End this series before you have too many nightmares.

Cole's eyes were always fixed on Xie Chen, and he kept thinking in his heart: "I don't believe you are not tired!"

Xie Chen rarely fights for a minute without resting, and he must be tired. After all, this is the finals, and the physical confrontation is too strong. In addition, the Warriors give Xie Chen such a strong defense, but no matter how tired he is, Xie Chen's shooting The shooting percentage will not be affected, which is why he insists on the court!

"At the beginning of the fourth quarter, the Knicks still have their full lineup! Xie Chen is really going to play the whole game!" Yang Jian said.

The Warriors put up a five-small lineup of death, scored wildly from the start, and put pressure on the Knicks. This is the time to really test Xie Chen.

"I don't know if Xie is okay..." Even the fans at the scene had doubts about Xie Chen's physical fitness.

And coincidentally, Xie Chen failed to make a mid-range shot. It was not a physical problem, it was just unlucky.

Then, someone started to say in a panic: "It's over, there's something wrong with Xie's physical fitness! His shooting is starting to be inaccurate!"

Maybe Xie Chen has been playing for too long. Just one missed shot made everyone start thinking about the bad results. The Warriors guys also thought the same way. Just like the coach said, this is the opportunity they are waiting for, and Now, the opportunity has come!

Soon, Klay Thompson forced a breakthrough for a layup. Xie Chen had a good grasp of Thompson and knew when he would score and when he would pass. This time it was obvious that he wanted to do it himself, so he chased Thompson and made a big block. !

"What a hat! It was actually given by Xie!"

The offense was not over yet. Xie Chen's block was sent to Warriors player Barnes. Barnes fell back and shot. Xie Chen caught up again and blocked Barnes' shot with another big block!

"Oh my god! Barnes' shot was blocked! Xie blocked two shots in a row!"

Does this sound like a person with physical problems?

Xie Chen got the basketball and ran straight to the frontcourt alone. Two or three people ran towards Xie Chen, but none of them were as fast as Xie Chen. Finally, Xie Chen told everyone with a fadeaway jumper that his shooting was still so accurate!

"How is this possible!" Coach Cole was stunned. He blocked two shots and then rushed to the frontcourt and hit a fadeaway jumper. It was as if he had just played.

"My series is not over yet!" Xie Chen shouted angrily after making the shot.

When people looked at Xie Chen again, they were not amazed by his superhuman physical ability, but admired his desire for the championship. Only someone who loves the championship so much can do such things that ordinary people cannot bear.

In the last two minutes, the Knicks still led by 15 points! There is basically no suspense in the game.

Anthony said to Xie Chen: "Brother, leave it to me."

Xie Chen nodded and was taken off for the first time in the game. The audience all stood up and applauded, shouting MVP.

Xie Chen was also very excited after winning this game. He shouted to all the fans: "Wait until I bring the championship trophy back!"

Congratulations to the Cavaliers for advancing to the finals!
