Super All-around Point Guard

The Lakers lead the Cavaliers 2:0 at the start of the Finals. The Lakers' current support rate for winning the championship on the Internet has also risen to as high as 90%. For a team with only one superstar, facing the opponents of the Big Three, it is difficult to have such a high level of support. The support rate is really unimaginable, which is enough to prove Xie Chen's weight in the hearts of fans around the world. It only took him three years to defeat all opponents and conquer everyone.

But the Cavaliers obviously will not sit still, and the contempt for them from the outside world has also greatly stimulated their proud hearts. LeBron James was swept once by his opponents in the 2007 Finals, and he is still being used to criticize him. If he does it for the second time this year, After being swept in the finals, there are even more people who despise him. James will never allow this to happen. He must win one of the two home games.

Kyrie Irving is also very motivated. Outsiders have criticized Irving and Love as being like the two children around James. They entered the finals for the first time and could not provide any help to James. Irving has made the playoffs every year in the past few years. In the competition, we fought with Xie Chen until the end to determine the winner. How could we not make any progress!

As for Kevin Love, he has been belittled even more worthless, and some commentators have even gone so far as to ignore him as a giant. Love has been scolded as a "softie" and "pseudo giant" in the past two years. Take off this label, just like Chris Bosh in the Heat's Big Three 1.0 era. Among the Big Three, there is always one who is not so good and cannot be called a giant. Love is also holding back his energy. prove yourself.

Cleveland, Quicken Loans Arena.

Although the team fell behind 0::2, the enthusiasm of Cavaliers fans has not diminished. Historically, it is not uncommon for them to lose two games in the finals and then equalize. Moreover, they have the three giants, so we can still look forward to it, but for Xie Chen, an old rival With the arrival of the game, Cavaliers fans are really panicking.

"It's been three years in a row. Thank you, this guy has been preventing us from winning the championship in this arena for three consecutive years! I thought he went to the Western Conference and I wouldn't meet him again in the playoffs this year. I didn't expect such a tragic situation in the Western Conference. He can break out of the encirclement! This guy is simply terrifying!"

"No one can stop him! Every time he visits a city, he is a nightmare for local fans!"

If the fans of each team were asked to choose the opponent they most want to encounter, Xie Chen must be on the list, because Xie Chen is the most popular and everyone likes him. And if they were to choose the opponent they least want to encounter, I am afraid it would also be Xie Chen. Because everyone knows that Xie Chen came here to win the victory.

When Xie Chen played against the Cavaliers in the playoffs in the second year, there were still many Cavaliers fans saying that they finally met Xie Chen again and wanted revenge this time. But in the third year, they did not dare to let such a thing happen. That's a big statement, revenge is not so easy to avenge.

In the two days before the start of the game, the focus of discussion among all Cavaliers fans was Xie Chen. When Xie Chen finally appeared at Quicken Loans Arena again, the fans at the scene both booed and cheered, and were excited. There is fear again.

The Cavaliers, like the Warriors, were defeated by Xie Chen year after year and both hated Xie Chen. However, the fans of the Cavaliers did not hate Xie Chen as much as the fans of the Warriors. There were rumors that Xie Chen was leaving for the Warriors. Fans of the Warriors were divided. He was disdainful and said that Xie Chen must not come to our Warriors. Our Warriors don't need him. If it happened to the Cavaliers, Cavaliers fans would have set off fireworks to celebrate.

After Xie Chen came on the field, he found that in addition to the support of the superstar spectators, there were also many Lakers fans. They probably thought that Xie Chen might not be able to return to the Lakers' home court to play again, so they rushed to the away game to support.

Playing away from home, for Xie Chen, the only difference is that there is an additional legendary team challenge. Fortunately, there were not many powerful legendary knights in the past, so the knights in the past two years are more difficult to deal with. If you are lucky enough to encounter the legendary knights in the past few years, Or the Cavaliers more than ten years ago, that would be a shame.

Xie Chen is very confident in this away game, and James also has strong confidence in Xie Chen's away game, because he discovered a pattern.

"As long as it is an away game, he will always shoot a three-pointer as soon as he comes up. Even if it is a long three-pointer, he will take it decisively whenever he gets a chance, as if he is afraid that he will not have a chance to shoot in the future. In today's game, he will definitely do it again. Do this!" James is indeed someone who has been studying Xie Chen since he entered the league, and discovered this incomprehensible and unexplainable phenomenon about Xie Chen.

James said to Korver: "You must stay close to him at the beginning. He will definitely shoot a three-pointer. Don't slack off even if he is two steps away from the three-point line. This is his usual routine. He does this against the Spurs and Warriors." Damn it, there’s no reason not to do it against us.”

"No problem." Korver agreed.

Xie Chen was thinking at this time: "When I played the Spurs and Warriors away from home, I was afraid of losing my ability in the Legends Game in the middle, so I used Curry's three-point ability as early as possible. But what should I be afraid of when playing against the Cavaliers? How can the Cavaliers do that? A legendary team that is too strong? No more risking three-pointers today."

James would never have thought that Xie Chen didn't want to do this tonight...

After the opening, James and Tyronn Lue have been waiting for Xie Chen to shoot a three-pointer. They have set up a dragnet and are waiting for Xie Chen to come.

Tyronn Lue thought to himself: "When the Lakers played the Spurs and Warriors away from home, they always used crazy three-pointers to blind their opponents at the beginning, but they didn't do that once they returned to home. LeBron's analysis was right. Xie will do this in away games. Now that we know your routine, we won’t lose to you again.”

Only by knowing yourself and your enemy can you win every battle. Tyronn Lue is very confident in tonight's battle!

However, Xie Chen's first attack surprised them all.

Xie Chen resolutely broke through Korver without any intention of lingering outside the three-point line. As soon as he got the opportunity, he directly took a mid-range shot. This ball even stepped on the three-point line to shoot.

James frowned a little. This is wrong. Xie Chen should be pursuing a three-pointer in the opening game. In fact, if he had to shoot a three-pointer in this offense, he could still have a chance to shoot. But as soon as he got a shooting opportunity, he immediately shot it. After going out, even if the three-point line is close at hand, he will not deliberately pursue it.

Obviously, one offense doesn't mean anything, and the Cavaliers still plan to defend against Xie Chen's three-pointer.

This time Xie Chen touched the ball two steps away from the three-point line, but Korver still stepped forward and stayed close.

"I didn't expect me to be so tight on three-pointers in this game." Xie Chen was also a little surprised. He had no intention of shooting a long three-pointer. He quickly accelerated his breakthrough. As soon as he broke through to the three-point line, LeBron James actually quickly brought it up and stretched out his hand to cover Xie Chen's three-pointer.

"Don't let me shoot a three-pointer at all!" Xie Chen was a little surprised. Seeing James coming, he immediately noticed Luol Deng running to the right corner and becoming open. Xie Chen hit the ground and passed the ball, and the ball passed from James's Pass under the crotch and run directly to the right bottom corner.

There was a burst of exclamation at the scene!

Another ball in the crotch! Last time I played Tristan Thompson, he was thrown in directly, but this time it was an assist.

James also felt that Xie Chen should be preparing to shoot, but he didn't expect that Xie Chen reacted so quickly and still passed the ball in this way.

Luol Deng made a solid hit after catching the ball!

"Wrong, wrong! Totally wrong judgment!" James gradually realized that Xie Chen was not going to open the game with a crazy three-pointer. If he had followed the way he played in the away games with the Warriors and Spurs, he would not have passed the ball and would have full possession of the ball. In his hands, Xie Chen would not hesitate to throw the ball even if it was difficult or interfered with. That was obviously not how Xie Chen played tonight.

James was teased a little by Xie Chen. The ball actually passed through his crotch. James glanced at Xie Chen helplessly.

Xie Chen smiled at James and said, "I didn't hit you with the ball this time. Don't look at me like that."

James replied: "You are really an unpredictable guy."

"Both each other." Xie Chen replied, "But I can understand you after the game."

There was something in Xie Chen's words, and James also heard it. The two still didn't have any private communication in the past two days, so James deliberately seemed to "target" Xie Chen in the last game, but in fact it was to protect Xie Chen. I guess Xie Chen I can see it too.

James smiled happily, and felt that he and Xie Chen were becoming more and more tacit friends. It was not easy for the two of them to repair this relationship after humiliating each other and openly fighting each other.

The knight is no longer prepared to predict what Xie Chen will do in advance, it’s impossible to guess!

In the first quarter of the game, Xie Chen still led the team, which put the Cavaliers under even greater pressure.

"If this game is won by the Lakers again and tied 3:0, then the Cavaliers will really have no hope at all. LeBron will not be able to reverse a 0:3 situation like Xie did back then." Harden It gradually feels like this season is coming to an end.

Westbrook nodded in agreement: "If we lose this game, I'm afraid Xie will really pursue a sweep and won't even have the chance to return to Staples. Frankly speaking, LeBron James has played well in the past two games. Both are 40+, so there will probably be no problem tonight, but Kyrie Irving and Kevin Love provided him with too little help."

James was also a little angry. No one in the Lakers could guard him. But the problem is that he is not a player like Xie Chen. He cannot dominate the offense from beginning to end. Other giants must take action to ensure that the Cavaliers Win.

Seeing James like this, Irving and Love felt uncomfortable.

In the second quarter, Kevin Love finally broke out!

Many people don't know that in the summer of 2016, Kevin Love went to Park City, Utah for special training. After losing to Xie Chen for two consecutive years and being criticized for two consecutive years, Love has heard enough. Since leaving Minnesota, Love has not been brilliant once, so he came here.

Park City has a high altitude, which is very good for strengthening physical exercise. Love trained here all summer. At the same time, Love also found a senior expert to train himself. This person is called Willis.

Willis played 21 seasons in the NBA, tied for first place in history with Robert Parish and Garnett. When Willis was selected, James was not born yet. When James reached the Finals for the first time, Willis Reese is still playing in the NBA, and Love admires his ability to maintain a high level of competitiveness for many years.

Willis told Love to eat "iron" into his body to become an iron man and to constantly polish his body. Under Willis' guidance, Love's physical condition is much better than last year. Higher intensity physical confrontation and more decisive shooting.

When James and Xie Chen didn't play, Love started his performance. First, he scored consecutive points in the paint. His playing style was very tough. He was able to put the ball into the basket under physical confrontation, even if it didn't go in. He can also grab offensive rebounds from Lakers bench players and then make up the score.

If he was only a threat on the inside, it wouldn't be difficult. The reason why he can become a giant is because he is also very scary on the outside.

Soon, Irving and James came on the court, and Kevin Love got a lot of outside shooting opportunities. Irving broke through and passed to Kevin Love, and the ball hit! James broke through and passed to Kevin Love, and he also hit a three-pointer!

The Cavaliers quickly overtook the score!

Love actually scored 20 points in a single quarter!
