Super all-around point guard

Chapter 730 Against the 2000 Galactic Fleet!
The atmosphere in the Moda Center Arena changed because of Plumlee's fourth foul. Originally, the Blazers fans firmly believed that they could win the game, but now there seems to be a little bad sign.

This is a very intense and difficult contest, and it is likely to be a stalemate until the end to decide the winner, but Plumlee has already fouled four times before finishing the second quarter. Will he be sent off in the decisive stage of the fourth quarter?If he is lost at a critical moment, what impact will it have on the team?
A series of worries silenced the fans.

Many fans on the Internet directly scolded the Trail Blazers coach.

"What a rubbish coach! Plumlee was fouled four times so early, and he didn't know how to protect him!"

Plumlee was substituted after getting four fouls.Without the rebound maniac tonight, it became much easier for the Lakers to get rebounds, especially the offensive rebounds. Grabbing one more offensive rebound means that Xie Chen can take one more shot. With Xie Chen's stable shooting rate, everyone knows what this means.

Xie Chen was in a relaxed mood. With the help of Coach Stotts, it was not a problem to win the game. As Xie Chen scored slowly, his personal score soon exceeded 30 points, which opened the legendary plot.

……

This time, the legendary Trail Blazers Xie Chen met was an opponent that Xie Chen was looking forward to meeting.

"Rasheed Wallace, Steve Smith, Scottie Pippen, Sabonis... Hehe, so tonight's opponents are them." After coming to the legendary plot, Xie Chen looked around and was very happy to see some past stars. He was no stranger to the Trail Blazers in this lineup.

This is the 2000 Trailblazer.

In 2000, the Los Angeles Lakers with the OK combination played against the Portland Trail Blazers in seven games in the Western Conference Finals. Even at the critical moment of the fourth quarter of G7, the Lakers fell behind the Trail Blazers by 15 points. In the end, they narrowly defeated the Trail Blazers and won the first championship of the OK combination.

It can be said that this Trail Blazers team almost broke OK's dream of three consecutive championships.

This is definitely a tenacious and respectable opponent, and that series of games is also classic. Even last year, James still said on the Internet that he was reviewing the Western finals in 2000 and commented: "Dude, I really hope that I can participate in that round of the series in the West, because this is the top basketball game. The price is paid. If you don't understand the history of basketball games, you will forget how many great teams have not won the championship, but it does not mean that they are not great. "

Even James praised the Trail Blazers. It is conceivable that tonight's opponents will be difficult to deal with.

"That Lillard guy feels hot tonight, and the other Trail Blazers are also playing very well. Even with the internal support of the coach, I have to continue to maintain my offensive ability to win. This time, I must win the Legendary Challenge and not lose my ability." Xie Chen secretly said, ready to start a big battle.

This season's Trail Blazers scoring leader is Rasheed Wallace, but he doesn't average too many points per game, averaging less than 20 per game, but in the playoffs he is the guarantee for the team to win, and Xie Chen once again saw Wallace's "straight-arm shooting".

Straight-arm shooting is a very strange way of shooting. The arm basically does not use force, and it relies on the strength of the wrist and fingers to push the ball out. The advantage of this type of shooting is that the shooting point will be very high and it is not easy to block shots. Wallace himself has a very high height and arm length.

After Jordan retired, Scottie Pippen went to the Rockets and came to the Trail Blazers. The data also began to decline year by year.

The person who is more important than Pippen is Steve Smith. He tied Wallace for the most points in the playoffs. In addition, Jr. O'Neal was also on the team at this time, but he has always been on the bench in the Trail Blazers. He averaged more than [-] points per game in the Trail Blazers for four years.

After playing for two quarters, Xie Chen found that this opponent was indeed difficult to deal with. He was very difficult to deal with. Fortunately, there were no superstars in this team. Pippen could be regarded as a superstar. Unfortunately, he was no longer Batman in the Trail Blazers. When playing against a team without superstars, no matter how sophisticated the opponent's tactics were, how perfect the coordination was, and how strong the defense was, Xie Chen would never lose.

In the past, when Xie Chen played against a legendary team, he would use Curry's three-point ability to frighten the opponent into a scramble when the opponent was unprepared, and took the opportunity to take the game away. But today, Xie Chen did not do this.

However, even if Xie Chen hides Curry's three-point ability, other abilities alone are enough to make opponents shocked and helpless, especially Michael Jordan's layup ability and Michael Jordan's two great skills, one SS+, one SS, Pippen knows Jordan's domineering best.

Mike Dunleavy, then the coach of the legendary Trail Blazers, had been watching Xie Chen's technical moves from the sidelines. He silently analyzed in his heart: "This No. 0 player is very similar to Michael Jordan. He has excellent jumping, lingering in the air, and unsolvable fadeaway shots. He is also very fast and confrontational. He doesn't shoot three-pointers very much. He should be as bad at shooting three-pointers as Jordan. Well, just defend him like Michael Jordan in his peak period."

Gradually, the game entered the decisive stage of the fourth quarter, and the Lakers led the legendary Trail Blazers with a slight advantage of 5 points. At this time, every player of the Trail Blazers was still focused. Xie Chen couldn't pass the ball smoothly, and there would always be fingers touching to interfere with Xie Chen's passing and shooting.

"These guys are still playing so seriously, do you think they can reverse the score? I'm sorry, the suspense will be over soon!" Xie Chen looked at the time, and there were 5 minutes left in the game, so he was going to use Curry's sky-defying three-pointer at this time, so that they could learn a lot.

The legendary Blazers have a very short player named Damon Stoudemire, who is less than 1.8 meters tall.

"Let's start with him." Xie Chen glanced at the little man in front of him, and shot a three-pointer without hesitation, and the ball hit the net.

"Damon's height is still too short." Coach Dunleavy still believed that Xie Chen's ability to make three-pointers was not because of his strong three-point ability, but because he had too little interference.

However, next, no matter who the legendary trailblazers defended against Xie Chen, Xie Chen would still score!

"Damn it, why is he suddenly so good at three-pointers! He has already scored four goals in a row!" The legendary Blazers panicked instantly.

Originally, the difference was only five points, but not long after, the difference has widened to double digits, and there is a tendency to continue to expand.

Opponents don't understand Curry's three-point ability, which is Xie Chen's biggest advantage in playing the legendary team.

Afterwards, Xie Chen made two ultra-long three-pointers again, directly ending the game!
……

When he comes back again, Xie Chen is already very tired from playing. According to his usual habits, he usually just came back from the Legendary Challenge. If he feels tired, he will first say hello to the coach, take a break for a few minutes to relax, and then start the game again. But this time Xie Chen can’t rest, he can’t show his tired state, and he must always give people, especially Coach Stotts, the momentum that I want to score 100 points and I want to break the record.

Xie Chen is also a little confused now, he doesn't know how many points his team scored, anyway, he will do it after getting the ball, force a dunk under the basket, let's talk after roaring!
"Terrible Chris Xie!" Stotts was terrified.

Xie Chen led another small climax, but Stotts still ignored it. Slowly, the Lakers began to lead the score.

Under Xie Chen's marking, it was difficult for Lillard to continue to explode. When Plumlee appeared again, it was even more tragic that he got two consecutive fouls in the third quarter and was honorably sent off in the third quarter.

At the end of the third quarter, the Lakers had already led by as much as 17 points, and in the fourth quarter, it became garbage time.

The generals of the Warriors and the fans of the Trail Blazers looked confused.

Chasing Dream Green couldn't believe his eyes: "This... this game, in the fourth quarter, turned into garbage time! And the Lakers are leading!"

Kevin Durant couldn't help shaking his head: "The Trail Blazers had a perfect start, but it's a pity that the more they play, the worse it gets. Coach Stotts' coaching style tonight is also very weird. Plumlee fouled out early. When the Blazers played unsatisfactorily, they didn't make timely adjustments, but let their opponents continue to counterattack until they won."

After the Lakers win this game, they are still the only No.1 in the West. Players like the Warriors certainly don't want to see this happen.

But Lillard is the most depressing at this time. He originally thought about scoring 50+ or ​​even 60+ tonight, and then leading the team to beat the Lakers and prove to the world that he is a better point guard than Xie Chen. Unfortunately, his dream was shattered, and it was their head coach who caused the shattered dream.

"If we could adjust in time at that time, if Mason Plumlee hadn't been troubled by fouls, maybe I would still be on the court at this time to fight with Xie Hurricane!" Lillard, who was sitting on the bench during garbage time, was very unwilling.

Xie Chen, on the other hand, was happy and relaxed, and secretly said in his heart: "If Coach Stotts hadn't been bluffed, he might still be working hard on the court, threatening his opponent. This is a good way. I can easily win the game without any effort. Yes, I should continue..."

Xie Chen, who had tasted the sweetness, decided to continue to rely on threats to achieve the goal of winning.

Xie Chen asked Wharton: "Coach, who is our next opponent?"

Luke Walton replied with a smile: "The next game is our home game against the Orlando Magic. There is no Oladipo in that team now, so you shouldn't fight with them again?"

Xie Chen and the Magic team definitely have a relationship. Last season, Xie Chen single-handedly defeated the entire Magic team. It was that battle that no one dared to provoke Xie Chen now.

At this time, Ci Shiping said: "Thank you, do you still think they are not pleasing to your eyes? Don't worry, I will teach them for you next time."

Xie Chen smiled and said, "No, in the next game, we will win easily. There won't be so many collisions. By the way, coach, the Magic's coach is the former Indiana Pacers coach Frank Vogel, right? How is your relationship with him? Do you know him? What kind of person is he?"

Luke Walton was very curious about how Xie Chen became interested in the opponent's coach. He hadn't heard of Xie Chen asking about the opponent's coach before. Walton paused and replied: "Frank is a very charismatic coach. He is very good at communicating with people and has experience in the playoffs..."

Xie Chen interrupted Luke Wharton: "I'm not asking how he is coaching, I'm asking him about his personality, timid?"

"This..." Luke Wharton was also stunned by the question, why did he ask such a question, "Are you timid, I don't know very well..."

Xie Chen nodded, trying to recall the scene of his dealings with Vogel in the past. In his impression, Vogel was a clean, well-dressed Caucasian coach with a friendly face, unlike Rivers, who knew he was a tough guy just by looking at each other. Xie Chen thought it would be easier to scare.

Soon, the game was over, and the Lakers continued to maintain the number one position in the Western Conference.

After the end, when Xie Chen bid farewell to his opponent, he went out to Stotts and complained: "You know what? I am very depressed today. I have broken the NBA record for two consecutive games, but it was stopped when I came to you. I wanted to score another [-] points tonight, but I couldn't do it. You stopped it!"

After the loss, Coach Stotts felt very honored when he heard these words!I am very good. Not only did I stop Xie Chen from going crazy, I didn't let my team be in the background, and I interrupted Xie Chen's consecutive record breaking. This is something that neither the Clippers coach nor the Pacers coach did!
Coach Stotts smiled and said, "I'm sorry, thank you. It's difficult for you to play as you wish with me."

Xie Chen didn't know how to thank Stotts, but on the surface he still pretended to be resentful, saying: "Anyway, we will meet again soon. Next time, you will definitely not be able to stop me from breaking the record, and you will not be able to stop me from getting 100 points."

When Stotts thought that he would face Xie Chen next, he couldn't help but get dizzy again. He had already lost a game on purpose. Would he continue to lose in the future?
Two days later, Stotts is not the only one who has this idea, there will be one more Magic coach Vogel!
