Super All-around Point Guard

Chapter 610 Anthony, the offensive rebounding king!

Scarlett Johansson rolled her eyes at Olson. Ever since Olson found out about Scarlett and Xie Chen, this witch always made fun of their relationship, leaving Scarlett helpless.

Scarlett now has a very strange feeling towards Xie Chen. When they first met, Xie Chen was a rookie player with unknown roles, while Scarlett was a world-famous movie star and countless stars including Durant. The goddess in the hearts of men, so Scarlett could be domineering when facing Xie Chen. She could show herself freely in front of Xie Chen, she could talk to Xie Chen eloquently, and she could use her feet to touch Xie Chen's butt.

And now, Xie Chen has become a person who is more famous than Scarlett in the world, has become the strongest person in a field, and even has the opportunity to become the person with the highest status in this field, plus Katie's However, Scarlett didn't know how to get along with Xie Chen. At least she no longer could say whatever she wanted and do whatever she wanted like before.

Scarlett stretched her head to look at the Knicks' player bench during the timeout. She saw Xie Chen's calm expression and was not worried about the game at all. She knew clearly that Xie Chen would find a way to win. She believed that without Xie Chen The difficulty cannot be solved, but I sighed a little in my heart: "He no longer needs me to help him canvass votes."

Xie Chen's influence is very great now. At this moment, Madison Square Garden in New York, the square outside the arena, bars and restaurants, are filled with a large number of fans watching the game. As soon as Xie Chen appeared on the stage, these people all became excited. , shouting Xie Chen’s name in unison.

Yang Jiandao: "Now when Xie Chen holds the ball and picks and rolls, the Warriors double-team and pass the ball to teammates on the weak side. They often miss the shot. Even if it is open, Derrick Williams has wasted two balls. The Knicks Here, it seems that the only two people with big hearts are Xie Chen and Anthony."

Zhang Weiping said: "Yes, Xie Chen and Anthony are the least nervous, and both of them are very good at handling key balls, but the psychological quality of the others is indeed a bit worse. Last night the Warriors boss released a video, it was Xie I played with the Warriors players as teammates in the morning.”

"Yes, that video is very popular, I watched it too." Yang Jian quickly followed suit.

Zhang Weiping smiled and said: "Yesterday, Xie Chen's teammates hit the ball decisively and accurately. I guess now Xie Chen will really miss those four "Warrior teammates" yesterday. To be honest, Xie Chen is in the playoffs He received too little help, and if he can win the championship under such circumstances, no one can question the gold content of his championship.”

Xie Chen handled the ball calmly on the court. Xie Chen was confident about the outcome of this game, but in fact he had no confidence. The Warriors used this defensive method against Xie Chen in the hope of limiting Xie Chen and letting Xie Chen's Teammates have to solve the game, and Xie Chen also has to rely on and trust his teammates. Williams had hit two open three-pointers before, which made Xie Chen feel very uneasy. Fortunately, the Warriors are not in a hot state, and the point difference and has not expanded.

In the second half of the first quarter, Carmelo Anthony suddenly showed off his power!

Xie Chen first distributed the ball, and then the ball was transferred to Anthony. Anthony hit Iguodala hard with his big butt at the waist position, and then quickly made a fadeaway jumper. Iguodala took off before Anthony. I wanted to steal the ball before, but this time I failed to steal it, and it was regarded as a foul by the referee. Anthony hit a jumper, and Anthony was given an extra penalty.

"Good shot!" Anthony scored a 2+1 goal against Iguodala, which immediately excited the Knicks team. Xie Chen also stepped forward to high-five Anthony. As long as Anthony has such goals and kills from time to time, Xie Chen will Chen is confident that he can take over the game in the end!

Iguodala is one of the best defenders in the league. What makes his defense different from other defenders is that he has a strong ability to predict. He can always predict the timing of the opponent's shot and make it in advance before the shot is made. The ball is cut off, and he has excellent wingspan, strength and speed, and it is no problem to match up with any type of player in the same position.

In this series, his main task is to defend Anthony, the Knicks' second most powerful player, and it is a one-on-one defense. His restriction on Anthony alone is terrible, especially since he can cause Anthony's mistakes in every game. Sometimes Igo Darla will also guard Xie Chen. On the one hand, Iguodala is not as fast as Xie Chen. On the other hand, it is difficult for Iguodala to intercept Xie Chen's ball and make Xie Chen make mistakes, so the effect is not obvious. But against a player of Anthony's height and size, Iguodala's true defensive strength can often be revealed.

After the last game, a reporter asked Iguodala if defending Anthony in this round was the best defensive performance of his career. Iguodala denied it without thinking. In his opinion, he is the most worthy. The proud defensive performance is that when he was with the 76ers, Kobe was at his peak defensive period. It was Iguodala's second season with the 76ers. The young Iguodala actually defended Kobe on only 7 of 27 shots! After the game, then Lakers coach Phil Jackson said this was the best personal defense against Kobe he had ever seen.

Of course, when the 76ers visited Staples to play the Lakers again, Kobe, who refused to admit defeat, went to the 76ers locker room before the game and left a message: "Tell Iguodala, I will get 50 tonight." Points!" In the end, Kobe "only scored 48 points."

Anthony and Kobe are different types of players. Anthony is not as ruthless, conceited or unwilling to admit defeat as Kobe. But tonight, so close to the championship, Anthony has also changed. He is no longer as relaxed as before. He is always He has been looking forward to the championship trophy all the time. In just one hour, he can touch the trophy he has dreamed of for many years.

Due to Anthony's wide body, he is not as fast as Iguodala. However, in terms of rebounding, Anthony has a complete advantage. The Warriors' rebound protection is not good. Of course, the Knicks are also very good. Damn, Bogut and Lopez are evenly matched, and due to the more intense physical confrontation, the two always fail to get rebounds for the first time. At this time, Anthony suddenly becomes a rebounding star for the Knicks. First, he grabbed an offensive rebound, and then used his body to hit the basket and succeeded in the second attack. After that, he missed the shot and was the first to rush over and grab the rebound. Although he missed the throw again, he was good at seizing the opportunity. Xie Chen was already flying and succeeded in making a dunk from two people apart!

"Oh my God..." The scene was shocked.

Yang Jian exclaimed: "He dunked just two or three big men away! Xie Chen is really everywhere. Just relying on this kind of tip-in and the opponent's mistake to score goals, I don't think he can score 30 points in a game." question."

Zhang Weiping nodded and said: "Yes, but this ball is better protected by Anthony's rebound. He has grabbed offensive rebounds these few times. The impact on the Warriors is really too great. In fact, the rebounds of these two teams are not good." Well, if Anthony is tougher and more positive, he might be able to help the team in this regard."

Anthony's good performance also allowed him to enter the decisive battle state in advance. The more he played, the more excited he became. Although it is hopeless to compete for FMVP, he will still fight to the death for the championship trophy that is within easy reach!

Thanks to Anthony's score, the Knicks launched their first counterattack. Xie Chen was also very excited. His preferred offensive mode now is that when his teammates score consecutively to start an offensive wave, Xie Chen takes the final relay to bring this wave of offense to its highest value. , in this way, the blow to the opponent is quite terrible.

But the strange thing is that even if Anthony showed his strength and threat, the Warriors still defended him alone with Iguodala, did not double-team him with the ball, and still regarded Xie Chen as the biggest threat on the offensive end.

"Damn it, I still can't get the ball." Xie Chen was a little depressed. He didn't expect the Warriors to be so firm in their defense.

Coach Cole looked at the scene on the court and said to himself: "No matter it's Carmelo Anthony or anyone else, their scoring is not consistent, but Xie Cai will score at any time and will continue to score. That person, thank you, I will never let you go in this fight today, please wake up!"

Since Anthony is a player who relies heavily on his body to play, Iguodala also worked hard on defense. You can see that every time he blocks Anthony's attack, the muscles in Iguodala's arms are tight.

Anthony's strong attack failed, but after shooting, he quickly squeezed Iguodala away with his body and rushed forward, grabbing and shooting himself, and actually grabbed an offensive rebound again.

There was a moment of depression at the scene.

"Another offensive rebound! Is Cameron the first player in the league in self-stealing and self-shooting? Are there any statistics?"

"Although his jumping is not strong, his thick body and fat butt are enough for him to dominate at the basket, at least when facing the Warriors."

Anthony rebounded really well, but as Cole said, Anthony or others' scoring is not consistent. This time, after Anthony grabbed the rebound, he immediately got up under the basket and was determined by Iguodala. The hat fell off.

But after being blocked, Anthony picked up the ball again.

Coach Cole is helpless. Anthony is so lucky today and all the balls are coming to him.

Anthony is also very stubborn, especially when the player is already under the basket. Most players' choice is to not score once, pick up the ball and continue the second attack. Anthony also showed a very unconvinced look, facing Iguoda. La was about to get tough again, and Iguodala raised his arms high, with a ferocious look on his face, and was also ready to defend.

However, Anthony did not jump again, but threw the ball high!

"What?" Iguodala was suddenly startled. He realized that this was a pass, and the ball was passed in such a way, thrown at such a high height, and under the basket. Needless to say, Anthony passed it to Xie Chen. .

Iguodala was aware of the crisis, but when he was about to jump up to block him, Anthony had already hugged him with both hands and pinned him firmly to the basket. In Game 7 of the Finals, this kind of physical contact was... Impossible to blow.

Xie Chen was also a little unexpected. Just now, Anthony alone attracted everyone's attention to the basket. Xie Chen also saw the small movement behind Anthony's left hand, and then saw Anthony throwing it under the basket. Xie Chen immediately accelerated and rushed over.

Because Zach LaVine's bounce is more BT, Xie Chen used Zach LaVine's dunk ability this time. The ball given by Anthony was very high, and LaVine's ability could barely reach it. Fortunately, Anthony pulled Iguodala It was pressed under the basket, otherwise, once someone jumps up to block it, Xie Chen's ball may not be able to be dunked successfully. After all, Zach LaVine's physical resistance is not strong and he is not suitable for dunking over people.

Xie Chen jumped lightly, reached the ball with one hand, and then poured the ball into the basket. The whole movement was so graceful and elegant that it made people not feel that this was the most intense stage of the finals.

Yang Jian was shocked when he saw this dunk: "Another dunk! Another goal that can enter the top ten in the finals! The tacit understanding between Anthony and Xie Chen is getting better and better."

Zhang Weiping also said: "Yes, this reminds me of James and Wade, Durant and Westbrook back then, but this kind of ball is usually passed by the small man to the big man, and the big man dunks it. When it comes to them, it's the other way around." Come here."

The Warriors didn't want Xie Chen to score, but Xie Chen still scored one after another. However, coach Cole was still unconvinced. He didn't believe that Xie Chen could dunk like this from beginning to end!

In this game, Xie Chen did not play the whole game like before. He rested for more than a minute in the first quarter and did not play at the beginning of the second quarter because this was an away game and Xie Chen still needed to challenge the legendary Warriors. , he did not dare to squander his physical fitness like this anymore, but in the eyes of netizens, Xie Chen actually played with reservations in the final battle of the finals, which was not what they expected.

This was certainly beyond the expectations of the Warriors coaching staff.

Coach Kerr asked Walton: "Why do you think he didn't play the whole game like he did?"

Today's game is Walton's last coaching game with the Warriors. He is also very serious and focused. After thinking about it, Walton replied: "There can only be one reason. He has concerns about his physical fitness. With his He has a strong desire to win, and if he has absolute confidence in his physical ability, he will definitely fight from start to finish.”

Cole nodded and smiled: "This is a good thing, isn't it?"

Walton also smiled and looked at the situation on the court. Speights and Livingston scored consecutively, and the Warriors quickly caught up with the lagging points difference. Maybe it was because this was the last time he coached the Warriors. In one game, everything on the court seemed a bit sad. Walton really likes the Warriors team and the Warriors players, but he just can't become the head coach here, otherwise he would never want to leave.

Before the game started, Walton and Coach Kerr discussed that there might be a collapse of one side in the tiebreaker, but looking at the state of both sides tonight, Walton said to Kerr: "I think the collapse of It’s hard to show up, I’m afraid the winner of this final battle won’t be decided until the last minute.”
