Chapter 29

Hornets locker room.

Stephenson leaned his upper body, showing his strong muscles. He stood panting among the players, holding a Gatorade bottle in his hand, but he never delivered it to his mouth, but just stood there blankly.

His sluggish eyes appear to be particularly mentally handicapped. Of course, "mentally handicapped" here is definitely not a derogatory term.

Stephenson snorted lightly: "Guys, do you think the Heat's rookie is a bastard? He plays without thinking at all! He catches the ball and shoots, completely ignoring my existence! Gambling steals and blocks again and again! God, how did Coach Spoelstra allow such a cancer to exist on the team? What a pity."

It's a new thing for a dude recognized by the league to criticize other people's duo. When it comes to the word "two", I'm afraid there are not many in the league today who can stand shoulder to shoulder with Brother Stephenson.

Last year's playoffs, when Stephenson was still in the Pacers, with 3 minutes and 39 seconds left in the third quarter of the second game, Stephenson fell while chasing LeBron James and made a pass out action, but the witty referee didn't bird him.

Then, Stephenson blew into James' ear. This scene made basketball fans at home and abroad laugh. When it comes to second-hand goods, Stephenson definitely does his part.

In fact, the relationship between Stephenson and these teammates of the Hornets is also average, and no deep relationship has been established yet, so after Stephenson finished asking, no one responded to him.

Stephenson was very annoying, especially annoying, because Xie Chen scored 17 points in the first half. He didn't think he defended well, but no matter how well he defended, the opponent had unlimited firepower, and he couldn't stop the opponent from scoring.

"Damn it! Thank you bastard. A rookie occupies so many possessions. He defends like an amateur. He doesn't follow any discipline. I don't want to defend him anymore. It's too cheap." Stephenson felt that he shouldn't be with Xie Chen, and asked the coach to use someone else to defend Xie Chen.

The Heat locker room.

Chalmers was silent, Cole was silent, Luol Deng was silent, Bosh was silent, Wade was silent, coach Spoelstra was silent, and everyone was silent. The Hornets were not a strong opponent, but this game was even more tiring than playing against the Rockets!It was Xie Chen who scored, and it was Xie Chen who allowed the opponent to score!Everyone didn't know what happened to Xie Chen today.

Coach Spoelstra will no longer reprimand Xie Chen like a rookie, because Xie Chen has grown into a potential star, and his status in the team has gradually become second only to Wade and Bosh, so he plans to reduce Xie Chen's playing time.

At the beginning of the second half, Cole took the lead. As soon as he came up, he hit two consecutive three-pointers and sent out two assists. His performance was extremely eye-catching. At this time, he smiled proudly at Xie Chen, and secretly said in his heart: "Boy, you want to take my place, you are delusional!"

Even Coach Spoelstra is considering whether it would be more appropriate for Cole to start the next game. Yes, Xie Chen's personal strength is stronger, but Xie Chen also has many unstable factors. The two offset, maybe not as good as Cole.

Cole played for 5 minutes before Xie Chen played late.

Jordan, who was sitting on the sidelines, finally cheered up. The game without Xie Chen just now made people drowsy. Jordan secretly said: "You should feel Spoelstra's dissatisfaction with you. I hope you will stop being self-willed and play and defend seriously. Let me see how strong you really are. Let me see how strong you are in learning!"

The reason why Jordan wanted to see Xie Chen play with his own eyes was not because of Xie Chen's strength. What he was amazed at was Xie Chen's learning ability and improvement speed on the court. However, in this game, I am afraid that Qiao's gang leader will not be able to witness Xie Chen's rapid progress, because the integration of "Lowry's breakthrough skills" has reached [-]%!

In addition, the integration of "Curry's three-point shooting skills" has also increased to 60.00%!Since Curry's skills are S-level, the progress in a game is limited, and Jordan can't feel anything.

After Xie Chen came on the court, he was a little uneasy: "What should I do now? Should I continue to use statistics or play honestly? If I continue to use statistics, Coach Spoelstra may be placed on the bench in the next game, but if I play honestly, I will not be able to reach 200 points after this game. Against Wiggins, I only have a breakthrough and only [-]% of my three-pointers!"

Wiggins has amazing height, arm length and talent. As long as he is serious, he is very likely to beat Xie Chen. Xie Chen must have a layup or mid-range shot skill!
"Even if I'm treated as a sinner, even if I'm despised by Jordan, I'm sure of this game!" Xie Chen made up his mind, after this game, he must reach 200 points!
In the first half, Xie Chen tried to assist his teammates several times, because an assist also added 2 points, but assists are not easy to obtain. The ball passed to a teammate may be passed to someone else.

Pull up and shoot from outside the three-point line, using Lowry's breakthrough skills, frequently break through or make mid-range shots or make layup fouls. Xie Chen is simply Kobe of the Lakers now, occupying a lot of shots. Coincidentally, Kobe and Xie Chen happen to be No. 2 and No. 39 on the current scoring list. Yesterday against the Suns, Kobe scored [-] points, but the team still lost.

Unlike Kobe, the Heat have a better chance of winning because they have Wade and Bosh. On the other hand, because of Wade and Bosh, Xie Chen's Kobe-style crazy shots become a little unreasonable. He is not the leader of the team, and he is not fighting alone. Why is he so alone?

Wade and Xie Chen have established a friendship long ago, so they will not resent Xie Chen, and Bosh was grateful to Xie Chen in the last game and won a lore, so now, he didn't say anything.

Until the end of the game, the Heat won with a score of 95:89. It is impossible to praise the Heat for winning. It can only be said that the Hornets are too weak and played too badly today.

After the game, when the players from both sides shook hands to pay tribute to each other, Lance Stephenson said to Xie Chen very rudely: "Rookie boy, although you have scored more than 40 points, don't be complacent, because you will soon lose the chance to play. As a professional and mature athlete, I solemnly tell you that playing basketball requires brains!"

"Thank you, thank you Lance. Your professionalism and maturity as well as your unparalleled high IQ are amazing, and I will remember them firmly." Xie Chen said with a very sincere expression, but he didn't let Stephenson realize that Xie Chen was mocking him. Perhaps in his heart, Xie Chen is already a hopeless bastard.

When the Hornets coach Clifford met Spoelstra, he rarely said something in his heart: "Your team's number zero is a time bomb. Tell Mr. Riley to stay away from such players."

Si Bo looked embarrassed and didn't respond.

In this game, Xie Chen scored 42 points, 5 assists, 3 rebounds, 3 steals, and 1 block. Excluding the points lost by mistakes, Xie Chen scored a total of 87 points. Xie Chen was a bit too aggressive, far exceeding the target of 76 points.

Now, he has 213 points and has obtained the copy permission again, and the next time he opens it, he needs 300 points!
After the game, the fans also dispersed one after another, but Xie Chen did not go directly to the player tunnel, because he suddenly found that Michael Jordan, who was sitting on the sidelines, was gone, and seemed to have left early.

He admired Jordan very much, and Jordan meant a lot to him, so he rushed out of the arena and came to the parking lot, and happened to see a Mercedes-Benz car approaching. Just when Xie Chen was guessing whether it was Jordan's car, the Mercedes-Benz car drove to Xie Chen and stopped. The rear window slowly lowered, revealing the figures of Jordan and his wife Yvette.

Jordan looked at Xie Chen, who was still wearing the sportswear for the competition, with a puzzled look on his face: "Why did you appear here?"

Xie Chen was overjoyed when he saw Jordan: "I'm here to find you, Mr. Jordan."

Jordan doesn't like to make friends with others casually, especially a statist like Xie Chen: "You shouldn't be here, you should stay with your teammates."

Xie Chen felt Jordan's indifference towards him, and said, "Michael, I know, I let you down."

Jordan smiled: "No, you are not my team, if there is, it is Riley and Spoelstra."

Xie Chen no longer disturbed Jordan's progress. He didn't come here to get close to Jordan. He just wanted to let his idol know that he is not a bastard who doesn't know how to play basketball, and he is not a selfish shooter!
Finally, before Jordan raised the window, Xie Chen said the last words: "Michael Jordan, one day, I will prove myself and prove that I am an excellent basketball player like you!"

(Curry is the current three-pointer king, and the copycat Curry said that the opponent is very arrogant. Is there any.)
