Super all-around point guard

Chapter 104 Unexpected Battle Situation

BAIDU, NBA.

"Hahaha, Xie Chen has turned on the God brushing mode again! Luol Deng has once again become Xie Chen's 'defeated opponent'!"

"Xie Chen, in order to compete with James Huang in terms of statistics, even snatched rebounds from his teammates to collect statistics. For such an unprofessional athlete, I just want to say, well done!"

"You bunch of Zhan blacks! I, Zhangui, are No.1 in the league. Do I need to compete with a rookie? As for breaking Zhan Zhan's 27-game winning streak, I, Zhan, don't care at all. Let's see, when the new Big Three are well integrated, Zhan Zhan will create the first winning streak in the history of the Cavaliers!"

Netizens are debating in full swing. At this time, many fans of James and Xie Chen in the mainland are engaged in it. Almost every post can see James and Xie Chen exchanging blows and blacking out. Most of them are not Xie Chen’s real fans.

On the field, after getting the rebound, Xie Chen slowly advanced the frontcourt. When he got to the free throw line, he got up and shot a jumper without hesitation.

"Oh, Xie's shooting percentage tonight is so low. These few shots are almost all iron. Could it be that he doesn't feel good today?"

"It should be. He will never miss the shot intentionally. After all, he cares so much about statistics. The shooting percentage is also a very important data reflection for a player. Fortunately, the Celtics are not strong. Otherwise, it would be difficult to win this game against a strong team. Xie still has such a low shooting percentage. The team record of 28 consecutive victories cannot be completed."

Tonight, the fans at the American Airlines Arena were all dressed in uniform, holding small flags of 28 consecutive victories, and the Heat mascot Bernie also wore the Heat's No. 28 jersey.

Tonight, team president Pat Riley and retired star Mourning also came to watch the game in person.

Tonight is a historic night for the Miami Heat, because they are about to break the team's winning streak and set a new record for the second consecutive winning streak in history, but it was on such a night that Xie Chen started the rebounding mode and crazily hit the iron.

"Mr. Riley, Xie's performance tonight is not satisfactory. Please forgive me for being blunt. His shooting is terrible." Mourning, as the hero who helped the Heat win their first championship, also has great affection for the Heat. Seeing Xie Chen's performance tonight, he can't help but feel a little disappointed.

Pat Riley also frowned: "His performance was abnormal tonight, but it doesn't matter, this will not prevent us from winning."

Mourning looked at the score, nodded, and continued to ask: "The opponents in these two games are indeed not enough to stop us from moving forward, but we have to face the Cavaliers in the Christmas game. You know that LeBron will not easily give us a historic winning streak. Do you have confidence in facing them?"

Pat Riley was still staring at the field, especially Xie Chen's every move, and said with a smile: "I told Xie the day before yesterday that you should play the Cavaliers on Christmas Eve as if it were the finals. Even if you are too tired to play for a week, you must ensure that victory. I believe he will do so."

Riley attached great importance to the game against the Cavaliers. It was the first official meeting between the two teams after James left. Riley tried his best to keep James, but in the end James abandoned him. Riley called James, sent text messages, and sent emails to James.
However, like Spoelstra, he was thinking, if James really stays in the Heat, how terrifying is the current team of Xie Chen + Wade + James + Bosh + Hassan!
"LeBron, you made the stupidest decision in your life! If you stay, you will be guaranteed three consecutive championships!" Riley said bitterly in his heart.

On the court, Xie Chen accelerated his breakthrough and entered the penalty area. Facing the defensive player, he pulled the bar for a layup, but deliberately released water during the layup, and did not make any progress. Xie Chen jumped up again and grabbed a rebound.

"Xie can't even make a layup! How did his condition drop so fast! How can he deal with LeBron in the Christmas game!"

Seeing Xie Chen's poor form, the fans couldn't help worrying about the next game.

In this way, Xie Chen's low shooting rate continued for the first three quarters. In the fourth quarter, thanks to Xie Chen, the Celtics were only two points behind.

Perhaps the most handsome Celtics coach among NBA coaches, Brad Stevens, cheered and clapped his hands to applaud his players: "Guys, see if you see it, we still have a chance! We have every chance to beat the Heat and end their historical winning streak. Everyone cheer up and let us take away their victory!"

Brad was overjoyed, the team played so poorly, they were only two points behind, and if Xie Chen continued to fight like this, the Celtics had a good chance of winning!Ending the Heat's winning streak before LeBron, the Celtics will definitely get everyone's attention!

Unfortunately, Brad was too happy too soon.

How could Xie Chen not know the importance of this game to his team?At the beginning of the fourth quarter, Xie Chen hit two consecutive three-pointers, and then made a breakthrough layup and scored 2 plus 1, which suddenly opened the score to double digits, and instantly made this young and handsome coach even more vicissitudes than the old man.

In the end, the Heat defeated the Celtics at home, winning 28 consecutive victories, officially breaking the team record of 27 consecutive victories created by James, and breaking the second consecutive winning record in history.

After this battle, Stephenson's rebounding skill integration has increased to 60%, and there are still 4 days before the game against James.

Everyone was counting down the time for the duel between Xie Chen and James. In fact, Xie Chen and James also had a countdown in their hearts. Every day that passed, the psychological pressure on the two of them would become heavier. Compared with Xie Chen, James’ psychological pressure was heavier. Apart from his contest with Xie Chen, the meaning of the Heat to him made him even more uncomfortable, and the Heat had good brothers he had fought side by side.

Before playing against the 76ers, Xie Chen still had private special training with Wang Zhihui as before. The special training item was still rebounding. Xie Chen was unwilling to give up any second. Finally, before the match against the 76ers, the degree of integration increased to 70%.

This time when the Heat played against the 76ers, the fans in the home arena were still enthusiastic, but the excitement of the game made everyone drowsy. Strictly speaking, this game was a feast of blacksmithing. In just three quarters, the Heat scored 50 rebounds, and many of them were contributed by Xie Chen.

Tonight, Xie Chen played as hard as he did on the court, but coincidentally, his teammates were not in good shape tonight, and they also missed shots frequently. What's more coincidentally, the 76ers were stronger.

During the whole game, the thumping sound of the basket was heard, and everyone including Xie Chen actively joined the ranks of grabbing rebounds.

In the fourth quarter, Xie Chen took a look at the disastrous score of the two teams, 65:62, and couldn't help laughing in his heart: "You guys are giving me too much face, so good at playing iron, my rebounding skills have improved a lot in this game, thank you!"

Just like the last game, in the fourth quarter, Xie Chen started to show off his power and no longer intentionally missed his shots. But when he was about to use Curry's three-pointer to open the score again, he missed three consecutive three-pointers!

"How could this happen!" Xie Chen had a drop of cold sweat coming out of his forehead, and he missed three three-pointers in a row. These three times, he missed all of them, so unlucky!

At the same time, the shooting percentage of other Heat players is still not high, including Wade, shooting is still frequently hit the iron!
At this moment, 76ers guard Michael Carter suddenly scored two three-pointers in a row to overtake the score!The Heat quickly called a timeout.

Coach Spoelstra became furious, threw the tactical board directly on the floor, and yelled at the main players: "What are you guys doing on the field! How many open shots you can't make! What use is your usual training! Do you know what kind of game this is? This is a game that made team history!"

At the 76 player bench, coach Brett Brown clapped his hands and praised: "Boys, everyone is doing a good job. Next, just continue to play like this. Don't think about who the opponent is, and don't think about ending the opponent's winning streak. You just need to play every attack and every defense well. Do you hear me clearly?"

With 5 minutes left before the end of the game, the 76ers actually overtook the score at the last moment. This was unexpected by everyone. However, under the coach's reprimand and Wade's encouragement, the Heat rekindled their fighting spirit and prepared to recover the score. But at this time, something unexpected happened.

Bosh even twisted his ankle while fighting for a rebound!

Judging from the repeated pictures on the big screen, Bosh should not be serious this time, but judging from Bosh's facial expression, the injury seems to be very serious. Bosh will end soon, and the Heat will lose a general at a critical moment!
Xie Chen and Wade finally led the team to start scoring, but at the same time, the 76ers played more and more smoothly at this time. When the Heat were close to the score several times, they opened the score again.

To everyone's surprise, the Heat and the 76ers even tied in regular time!The two teams will play overtime!

In Cleveland, Cavaliers star James, who just beat the Timberwolves by 25 points, bit his finger and said with a chuckle after seeing the score, "It's interesting."
