Super all-around point guard

Chapter 807 402 Three Points!
Dell Curry guessed it right. For Xie Chen, breaking Stephen Curry's 402 three-pointers last season is no suspense. It doesn't make any difference whether it is broken this time or the next game. It is Xie Chen who has won the championship for the past two years.

Instead, Xie Chen is more concerned about whether the team can break 73 wins. This is a greater achievement. To break this record, at present, the biggest obstacle is two encounters with the Clippers. Today’s game is the first.

Since the Clippers must win once in the two games, Xie Chen is now at a record breaking point. When the opponent mistakenly thinks that Xie Chen will shoot a three-pointer with all his strength, Xie Chen instead cheats fouls or shoots two-pointers to score. Winning will become easier.

Leading the Clippers by double digits in the first quarter is too important for the Lakers.

Immediately afterwards, in the second quarter, Xie Chen started to really try to shoot three-pointers from time to time. He would not think about breaking the record this time, but his goal in this game is not low, that is, to shoot 10 three-pointers.

At the end of the half, the Lakers' lead had expanded to 17 points. The Clippers' players showed no fighting spirit and no desire to fight throughout the first half, especially the two main players, Griffin and Paul.

In the past, every time Paul met Xie Chen, he would try his best to show himself. After all, before Xie Chen, he was the league's number one point guard, but with the rise of a new generation of point guards, Paul's age continued to increase, and his fighting spirit on the field became less and less than before.

In the Lakers locker room after halftime, Nick Young said to Xie Chen: "Xie, why did you make four three-pointers in the first half? In this case, you must make nine three-pointers in the second half. I don't question your ability to score nine three-pointers in the halftime, but our opponent is completely vulnerable. We are leading by 4 points. Today's game will probably end in three quarters. I'm afraid you won't have a chance to break the record."

Ci Shiping also looked anxious, looked at Xie Chen and said, "That's right, thank you, you took too few three-pointers in the first half, but it's okay, you can shoot as much as you want in the second half, and let the coach not replace you too early, and we will try our best to prevent the point difference from getting too big."

Xie Chen hurriedly said: "Don't do this, they are the Clippers, once we give them a chance to catch up, we are very likely to be reversed!"

Compared to breaking the three-point record this time, Xie Chen wanted to securely guarantee victory in this game.

Luke Walton also agreed with Xie Chen and said: "We still have to give priority to ensuring victory. As for the three-pointer record, if there is really no chance in today's game, let's end it."

At the same time, the Clippers players are also in a complicated mood. In the third quarter, did they cheer up to catch up with the point difference?Or just keep fighting like this?
In a game where victory or defeat doesn't matter to them, facing such a big point difference, they really don't want to chase. This season is too tiring, just like what the coach told them before the game, they don't want to work too hard in this game, and if they catch up, they will give Xie Chen a chance to stay on the court and break the record.

After the start of the second half, the Los Angeles Clippers did not show the momentum of chasing points frantically. They also played step by step without feeling much passion. However, Xie Chen continued to score to stabilize the lead. He hit two consecutive three-pointers at the beginning of the third quarter.

Yu Jiadao: "Xie Chen has made 6 three-pointers now, but the Lakers are also leading the Clippers by 20 points. If this continues, the game will not last long before it will be garbage time. Xie Chen will have to make another 7 three-pointers to break Curry's record. Does he still have a chance today?"

Su Qun said: "It depends on Luke Wharton's arrangements. If Xie Chen continues to hit three-pointers in a row and is very close to the record, the coach should still let Xie Chen continue to play."

Xie Chen did not continue to hit consecutive three-pointers, he was not that eager, but Xie Chen was not in a hurry, but the audience was.

"Oops, the Clippers don't seem to be able to fight back. Xie is still a few shots away from breaking the record!"

"The Clippers are too inexperienced, right? It seems that Los Angeles' victory depends on the Lakers!"

In the end, when the third quarter was about the same, the Clippers still failed to make a decent counterattack and were suppressed by the Lakers. Xie Chen's playing time was not short, so Luke Walton replaced him.

At this time, Xie Chen scored 9 three-pointers in the game, which is 4 short of breaking the record. Next, it is very likely that Xie Chen will not have playing time.

"Damn it! Didn't Xie stop playing in the fourth quarter? It's already garbage time!"

"The Clippers are still behind by 20 points after playing a whole quarter! Can they catch up?"

The audience at the scene were very depressed seeing this result. They all came to see Xie Chen break the record today!13 three-pointers in a game is too demanding for others, but it is not difficult for a three-pointer like Xie Chen Curry!So they vented their grievances on the Clippers. The Clippers played so badly that Xie Chen didn't have enough playing time to break the record.

The moment Xie Chen left the field, Stephen Curry and his family also breathed a sigh of relief.

"It looks like the game is going to enter garbage time, and my record can be kept for another two days." Curry smiled bitterly. Facing this situation of being surpassed by others and being helpless, it is really frustrating. If there is no Durant in the team, Curry can make as many three-pointers as Xie Chen can make this season. But without Durant, the Warriors will never win Xie Chen's team.

When it comes to garbage time, it is the time for the substitute players to play.

"There must be many people in the world who want to see Xie break Stephen Curry's record today. Now that the game has entered garbage time, Xie will not be sent out again. Then I will find a way to let Xie get another chance to play." Ci Shiping smiled wickedly, and he obviously had a new plan.

The current him may not have much ability to help the team win, but if he wants to make the team lose, he thinks he still has a way...

In the fourth quarter, when all the audience were watching the game with depressed faces, Ci Shiping started his solo performance.

The first is Speights of the Clippers. Facing Yi Jianlian's layup inside, Yi Jianlian defended very well. With this ball, Yi Jianlian has great hope to directly block Speights' shot, and he will block it very cleanly.

Speights was obviously not prepared for this attack, and he was not sure about Yi Jianlian's defense, but at this moment, a person suddenly flew from behind and pulled Speights down severely, causing a foul. Speights got two free throws.

Speights was a little confused, but also a little thankful, because he was not very sure about the singles, and someone unexpectedly fouled him when he was shooting. Looking back, that person turned out to be Ci Shiping.

Therefore, the ball that would have been blocked, Speights scored two points steadily, and the Lakers also lost a fast break opportunity.

When seeing the ball, Yu Jia also said, "Ci Shiping's foul is a bit unwise."

His ill-advised foul is still to come!

In order to quickly narrow the point difference, Ci Shiping focused on the Clippers' three-pointers. As long as someone made a three-pointer, he didn't care if that person was his own or not, and he would directly rush to foul.

Once, when Rivers Jr. got an open shot for a three-pointer, Ci Shiping was more active than anyone else and rushed over quickly. After Rivers Jr. had already made a shot, he slapped Rivers Jr.'s arm hard.

Ci Shiping gave the opponent another 3+1 chance.

"Ci Shiping is just adding to the chaos." Yu Jia commented, like many people, he has not yet realized Ci Shiping's real intentions, maybe it turns out that Ci Shiping is such a person who likes to make trouble...

Originally, the audience at the Lakers also thought that Ci Shiping might have short-circuited his head again, but gradually, they discovered that it was precisely because of Ci Shiping's fouls that the Clippers really hit a counterattack climax.
"Xie has another chance to play!" Many people became excited.

On the court, Ci Shiping still did not stop the team from losing points. Once, Rivers was allowed to rush in for a dunk. Rivers was the hero of the Clippers counterattack. With the help of Ci Shiping, he scored a lot of points. This time it was another domineering dunk.

"Ah!" Little Rivers clenched his fists excitedly and shouted while standing under the basket.

In fact, Rivers' approach is not too much. Many young players play like this, but Ci Shiping is now trying his best to let his opponent catch up with the score, so he stepped forward and pushed Rivers violently, and then said fiercely to him: "What's your name, brat!"

His purpose is not to teach Little Rivers a lesson, although he and Little Rivers' father don't see each other very well, his main purpose is to let the Clippers score.

Seeing that Ci Shiping fouled at all costs and let the Clippers make free throws, Xie Chen couldn't see what Ci Shiping was up to.

Xie Chen not only didn't appreciate it, but also said to his teammates very upset: "If we lose this game because of this, at the end of the regular season, it is precisely because we didn't win this game that we didn't break the record. Then I will kill Ron. Don't stop me!"

The teammates are also very cooperative, saying that they only provide support and never obstruct.

This is too risky!There is absolutely no need to do this. This is not the last game of the regular season. It is not like Xie Chen cannot break the record of 402 three-pointers. Ci Shiping is playing with fire!
Soon, Xie Chen had no choice but to play again, replacing Ci Shiping.

The audience at the scene also became excited and gave Xie Chen the warmest applause. The Staples Center, which had been dull for a long time, immediately became lively. The audience seemed to have just woken up from a sleep.

When Xie Chen and Ci Shiping passed each other on the field, Ci Shiping took the initiative to pat Xie Chen, and then said to Xie Chen, "You're welcome."

Xie Chen really wanted to scold someone, thank you sister, let the Clippers chase the point difference to only 7 points, do you know how dangerous it is?

Paul, Griffin, and JJ Redick are all back, and it seems that they will continue to fight back and win the victory.

"It seems that the record must be broken now." Xie Chen also cheered up. Anyway, since he had a chance to return to the court in the fourth quarter, he was only three three-pointers away from tying the record, and four three-pointers away from breaking the record. Xie Chen had to do it.

Stephen Curry became nervous again...he was thinking about what enmity he had with Ci Shiping!

Paul Griffin scored one after another, and the point difference between the Clippers and the Lakers is almost the same. On the Lakers bench, Nick Young complained to Ci Shiping: "Look at what you did. Now they are only one goal behind us. I am afraid that in the last minute of this game, we will not know who will win."

Ci Shiping said calmly: "Isn't it better to play overtime? Xie breaking the record is more stable. As for winning, don't worry, I have played in the NBA for so many years, and today's Clippers are completely out of shape. They can't win just by relying on the bench and a few good shots occasionally."

With the auspicious words of Ci Shiping, it is really the case. The Clippers did not seize the best opportunity to overtake the score, but the scoring stagnated again. Xie Chen took this opportunity to hit two three-pointers in succession!

"401 three-pointers! Xie Chen is only one goal away from Curry's 402 three-pointers last season!" Yu Jia was very excited.

Su Qun also said excitedly: "At the beginning of the fourth quarter, I thought that Xie Chen would not play. Xie Chen had to go off the court to break the record. I didn't expect that Ci Shiping would give Xie Chen a chance to break the record. Let us look forward to Xie Chen's 402nd three-pointer!"

Soon to tie another record, Xie Chen couldn't hide his excitement. It was not difficult to make the 402nd three-pointer. What he thought about was how to make it.

"Steph Curry's 402nd three-pointer seems to be made like that." Xie Chen recalled that he wanted to use the same action as Curry to hit the 402nd three-pointer in the regular season at the same position.

In my impression, Curry got rid of the opponent's defense, slipped to a 45-degree angle on the right, received a pass from his teammate and directly shot a three-pointer. Xie Chen did the same.

As soon as he saw Xie Chen's running position, Curry put his head in his hands. He knew what Xie Chen was going to do next.

"402 is coming!" Curry knew that what should happen will happen after all.

Because the Clippers still wanted to win, they didn't dare to foul rashly, and Xie Chen couldn't easily get three free throws, so Xie Chen made this meaningful goal steadily.

Swish!
The same position, the same running position, the same way of shooting, the same is the 402nd three-pointer in the regular season!

What Curry did last year, Xie Chen also did this year, nine games ahead of schedule!

　(I recommend everyone to look at today’s top ten shots. The alley-oop pass Mills sent to Simmons from the Spurs was so good that it only ranked sixth. When Mills threw the ball, Simmons didn’t even reach the free throw line, and there were three players from the Nets under the basket! McGrady also played Wade’s dunk today. Do you remember who missed it?)
