Super All-around Point Guard

"We won! We won! We advanced to the Western Conference Finals!"

All the players in the Lakers dugout rushed to the court to celebrate and cheer with Xie Chen and the other five. Xie Chen himself was also very excited. Even though he had played in the finals twice, this was the first time he had advanced to the Western Conference finals. This excitement is almost equivalent to defeating the Cavaliers in the Eastern Conference. Against the Warriors? That’s equivalent to the finals!

"Western Conference Finals, I'm here!" Xie Chen was also excited, and he was finally relieved at this moment. When Yi Jianlian rushed over, Xie Chen couldn't help but lie on his shoulder for a while. He was too tired. This night, he Played two consecutive games with four quarters and two overtimes.

While the members of the superstar viewing group were happy for Xie Chen, they also began to lament Xie Chen's strength.

James Harden said: "After sweeping through thousands of troops in the East, in the West, facing a strong team like the Spurs, we were able to win six games. If the Warriors hadn't formed an unprecedented four giants this season, the West would have been ruled by Xie! "

Carmelo Anthony looked at the excited Xie Chen on the court and said: "When we advanced to the Eastern Conference finals last season, he was not so excited. Although I am a player on the Eastern team, I have to admit that after the Western Conference finals, The competition became more intense. Russell Westbrook fought fiercely with Xie in the first round. It was not easy for the Lakers to win the series against the Spurs. You see, Xie, who has always had amazing physical fitness, was already tired. After these two rounds of consumption, I don’t know if it will have any impact on the Warriors next.”

Although the series between the Warriors and Clippers is not over yet, almost everyone believes that the Warriors will advance.

Xie Chen still has not lost a series, which makes many people jealous, and many anti-fans do not forget to provoke at this time.

"What's so exciting about advancing to the Western Conference Finals? For the Lakers and Xie Chen, this is the beginning of a nightmare! The Warriors' Big Four will teach Xie Chen how to be a good man!"

"If Xie Chen can lead this group of soldiers and generals to overthrow the Big Four of the Warriors, I will never blackmail any star again!"

On the court, some were happy and some were sad. For the Spurs, their season was over.

Gasol, Ginobili and others were very calm. Winning or losing seemed numb to them, but for Leonard, this result was not easy to accept.

He is 26 years old this year. He has set many personal records this season. He is at the peak of his career, and he happens to be on a strong team competing for the championship. Not every star can have such an opportunity.

Although he felt very uncomfortable, he did not leave directly after the game.

Xie Chen shook hands with Leonard, hugged, and then said: "You are the player in the league who steals and blocks me the most times."

Leonard couldn't laugh anymore. He valued this result too much, "But I still lost to you. I hope we have the chance to fight again."

Xie Chen nodded and said: "Even if I really retire, I will still want to play two games with you from time to time. Maybe we can leave each other's contact information."

After Leonard, Xie Chen shook hands with Gasol and Ginobili one by one and said goodbye. Finally, Xie Chen came to Popovich.

Popovich looked at Xie Chen with a strange expression. It was neither hatred nor approval. It seemed that he still couldn't accept that he was defeated by the Lakers.

Popovich asked Xie Chen: "Xie, I have lost many series in the playoffs, but this time I lost a little bit confused. When you finish this season, can you find a time to chat?"

Xie Chen smiled and said: "Okay, when I win the championship this season, I can share with you my experience of beating you in these six games."

"Haha." Popovich couldn't help laughing when he saw that Xie Chen was still so confident. Playing against the Warriors does require such strong self-confidence, but sometimes confidence alone is not enough. Popovich said to Xie Chen when parting A voice: "Good luck to you."

After dealing with the Spurs, the next opponent is probably the Golden State Warriors. However, since the series between the Warriors and the Clippers is not over yet, the Lakers still have one day to breathe. Once it is confirmed that the opponent is the Warriors, they will probably be under pressure. .

In another game today, the Raptors and Celtics actually tied, and the two sides were about to enter a tiebreaker.

The next day, the Golden State Warriors played against the Los Angeles Clippers again. The powerful Warriors settled the battle in three quarters and also advanced to the Western Conference Finals with a total score of 4:2!

The Warriors and Lakers are finally facing off!

As soon as the results came out, before the series even started, fans of the Warriors and Lakers started a verbal battle online.

"A team like the Lakers deserves to advance to the Western Conference Finals? Let's see how I can sweep you!"

"Xie Chen beats the Warriors every year, and even earlier this year. Are Warriors fans scared?"

"With a lineup like the Warriors and a player as unsolvable as Durant, I really can't think of any way for the Lakers to beat the Warriors."

"But judging from the regular season games, it is not impossible for the Lakers to beat the Warriors."

"The Warriors and Lakers should stop fighting. No team with more than 73 wins can win the championship. The championship belongs to the Cavaliers!"

"..."

After the two sides in the Western Conference Finals were officially determined, not only the Internet was hotly discussed, but all media experts were also discussing and even hyping this battle. Although this is not the finals, judging from the current enthusiasm for discussion and the strength of both sides, this It’s this year’s finals!

Countless netizens and retired NBA stars are saying: This year’s finals will be staged early!

T.NT.

The host said: "Xie surprised us again. He led the Lakers to defeat the powerful Spurs. After he came to the West, he didn't have any acclimatization and no need to adapt. When he met his opponents, he defeated them. It's that simple. Xie entered Since the beginning of the league, he has not lost a series in the playoffs, so will this series with the Golden State Warriors be his first loss?"

Kenny Smith said with a serious face: "Xie has defeated the Golden State Warriors twice, and both were on the stage of the Finals. However, Xie's team and the Warriors are completely different teams. There are no more star-level helpers, and the Warriors have assembled four. Three of them can shoot from any position on the court, and once they make the shot, they may continue to make consecutive hits. Although they have defeated the Spurs and Thunder, if you want to It is too difficult to get over the mountain of the Warriors. I think this series is equivalent to the finals of this season, and their duel will be even more exciting than the finals."

O'Neal followed up and said: "Yes, if you have a friend who only watches the NBA Finals, then tell him to watch the game a few days in advance this year. In the past two years, the opponents in each finals have been the Golden State Warriors and the Knicks. Lissie, Xie came to the West this year, and the 'finals showdown' between them also took place in advance."

"It's really not easy for Xie to lead the Lakers to the Western Conference Finals. Sometimes I even wonder, if I led these guys at my peak, would I have reached the Western Conference Finals? But with the Spurs, Xie The consumption was too great, and they were even behind. On the contrary, in the two rounds of the playoffs, the Warriors were basically as relaxed as playing in the regular season. If Xie really has any hidden abilities, against Jin In this series against the State Warriors, he must use it and try his best. However, even so, it will be difficult for him to defeat the Warriors alone. He can only pray that others can perform better."

After O'Neal finished speaking, Charles Barkley also said: "I am also not optimistic about the Lakers, because no player on the Lakers can limit Kevin Durant, Luol Deng is too slow to keep up with KD, and Brandon Ingram is young, but he is too inexperienced and has no advantage in physical confrontation. Durant can easily break through the defense. In addition, the Warriors are likely to use the Spurs' defensive strategy to prevent Xie's three-pointer and let Xie go Breakthrough, in fact, the Spurs did a good job at this point, and Xie's inside attack was not particularly strong. The Spurs lost because they failed to score three points when their opponents did not, allowing the Lakers to repeatedly hold on to the score until the stalemate. In the final stage, we lost the game in the end.”

"But the situation of the Lakers and Warriors will be very different. When the Warriors limit Xie's outside three-pointers, the Warriors have too many people who can shoot three-pointers. KD, Stephen Curry, and Klay Thompson, the three of them are enough. To open up the score, that is to say, it is difficult for the Lakers to drag the Warriors into overtime. With the Warriors restricting Xie with the strongest defense, Xie's personal threat can actually be equated with Durant, and the Lakers' There is no way other role players can compete with Stephen Curry, Klay Thompson, and Draymond Green. The Warriors can double-team Xie, but do the Lakers dare to double-team KD?"

The host did not expect that all three of them were so unfavorable to the Lakers. Perhaps the Warriors were too dominant in the playoffs. The host said: "Xie's wife Katie is our colleague, and none of you are optimistic about the Lakers." , what if the Lakers really beat the Golden State Warriors in the end? They are a 75-win team."

O'Neal was the first to answer: "If Xie wins this year's Warriors, I will forget how many championships Michael Jordan has. In my heart, Xie is the number one player in history."

"Same."

"Same."

Kenny Smith and Charles Barkley also responded.

They all believe that the Western Conference, or the Golden State Warriors, have the strength to win the championship. If the Lakers can defeat the Warriors, it means they are a stronger team than the Warriors. Since they can defeat the Warriors, it will be no problem to defeat the Cavaliers. The fans felt very unhappy at being so ignored, but they were also waiting to see the show, hoping that the Warriors and Lakers would have a brutal fight, and that the Cavaliers would be able to enjoy the advantage when the Finals reached the stage.

…

The series between the Raptors and the Celtics also came to an end in Game 7. The Celtics defeated the Raptors with difficulty and advanced to the Eastern Conference finals to meet the Cavaliers.

However, the focus of everyone's discussion is still the Warriors and Lakers.

On this day of the match between the two teams, Xie Chen didn't pay attention. He didn't care who the Cavaliers' opponents were, but spent all his energy on his opponents.

In this series, Xie Chen will use Michael Jordan's layup ability that has been hidden for a long time. Before that, he called his superstar friends in Los Angeles and planned to let them know in advance, because Xie Chen wanted them to do it. Xie Chen's sparring partner.

James Harden, Westbrook, Hassan Whiteside, Carmelo Anthony, Porzingis, and the Timberwolves all appeared in the indoor basketball hall of Xie Chen's villa.

Xie Chen had already informed in advance that they were invited to be Xie Chen's sparring partners. However, although they were good friends, James Harden still said to Xie Chen: "Xie, do you know to invite MVP-level players like us to be our sparring partners?" , how difficult is it? Even if we are brothers, you have to invite us to the nightclub after the season is over. I happen to be going to China during the offseason. Xie, you should go too, right? When we hold a party in SHANGHAI or somewhere, you are responsible for inviting those hot Chinese girls over, how about it? I remember the names of two beauties, one is Zhou... Ling'an, the other is Zhang... Manyuan, you want to Bring them all."

Whiteside stepped forward and said to Harden: "Man, Xie is about to face the most difficult opponent. As his brothers, we should be here to help him. You still ask for this, which is too much."

Harden replied to Whiteside: "Hassan, you are not very famous in China. You have not been interviewed there. It is normal not to know these two beauties. I still have their photos on my phone. You can see them." One glance.”

Whiteside walked over and took a look at the Chinese beauty on Harden's phone. Sure enough, she had a sexy figure. Then he changed his words and said, "Thank you, I think James' proposal can still be considered."

At this time, Westbrook said: "Okay, stop making trouble. The game against the Warriors is about to start. There is not much we can do for Xie. Xie, what do you want us to do?"

Westbrook is extremely looking forward to Xie Chen meeting the Warriors, because the Warriors have Durant. In the regular season, the Thunder faced the Warriors and were abused time and time again. Durant could score 40 points every time. Westbrook is looking forward to Xie Chen very much. Chen defeated Durant because he didn't want Durant to win the championship ring earlier than him.

Xie Chen said: "You select five people to play the role of Warriors players to defend me."

Westbrook thought for a while and said: "I will do Stephen Curry's job. James Harden, you will play the role of Klay Thompson and defend Xie. Wiggins, you can also play. The inside player will be Carmelo Anthony." Let’s have Hassan Whiteside and the rest of them be Xie’s teammates.”

Everyone had no objections and immediately started playing their roles.

The lineup of Westbrook + Harden + Wiggins + Anthony + Whiteside is more luxurious and terrifying than the Warriors' starting five. It is really a luxury for Xie Chen to find these people as sparring partners.

Xie Chen said to these five people: "You have all played many games with the Warriors. You should know how they will defend me, right?"

The five people nodded. James Harden walked up to Xie Chen, who was holding the ball on the outside, and said: "The Warriors will defend your outside three-pointers like the Spurs, so I will defend in the same way."

I saw Xie Chen suddenly break through Harden and get to the basket. Wiggins and others quickly stepped forward to block him. Xie Chen faced the three people under the basket and took off resolutely!

Xie Chen wants them to see Xie Chen's ultimate ability in advance!
