Basketball K God

Chapter 542 Consecutive All-Star Starters
Pause back, the game continues.

As if dominated by the opponent, and the sense of fear has not receded, Jason Thompson seemed too intentional when passing the ball to Thomas Jr. on the outside, and was cut off by Conley!
The Grizzlies continued to counterattack. Originally, the Kings arranged a flank attack, but the opponent counterattacked. The frontcourt already played more and less. How do you arrange a flank attack?
Conley gave the ball to Xie Kai, who was advancing in the frontcourt. The latter caught the ball and passed the veteran Garcia, and continued to shoot 3-pointers-continue to hit!

Xie Kai scored 31 points!

"Heaven—" Yang Yi, who was sitting in the CCTV studio, looked up to the sky and sighed.

The point difference has been stretched to as much as 13 points, and the sleep train arena is already Xie Kai's personal special.If you didn't see the logo of the Kings on the floor of the arena, you might even think that this is the home court of the Grizzlies.

Kings coach Keith Thomas stood on the sidelines, dumbstruck... He had been in this state for a while, and no one laughed at him, because he really didn't have any cards in his hand to face the K-God in a runaway state.

The frustration on the faces of the Kings players is obvious, and it's not their fault. They actually played well in the first half and played an above-average game. Who knew that Xie Kai would go berserk in the third quarter. There was no warning at all. ?

In the next game, the Kings resolutely pinched Xie Kai to prevent him from playing crazy.But Xie Kai had a heaven-defying touch, and neither of them could hold it back.Moreover, he moves without the ball and uses off-ball screens, so it is too difficult to pinch.

本节比赛，谢开3分球6投5中，单节砍下22分2个篮板3次助攻1个抢断1个盖帽，帮助球队将比分优势扩大到20分以上。

In the last quarter, Xie Kai no longer appeared on the stage, the morale of the Kings had been shattered, and there was no further disturbance. In the end, they lost to their opponents by a big score.

谢开3节砍下41分6个篮板7次助攻2个抢断1个盖帽，表现堪称完美。这是他NBA常规赛职业生涯的第9次40+，而这次的3节打卡40+，看上去很轻松。

Xie Kai didn't play in the final quarter, but the whole audience was shouting "MVP". In this, the K honeys contributed a lot.Even, many neutral fans also began to join the camp of K honey, one after another, it seems that the king team honey is even weaker.

Compared with the Kings, a bad team that has been in the rebuilding phase for a long time, the "former Kings player" Xie Kai looks much more attractive.

The NBA believes in the strong and worships the strong. Except for those hard-core team fans, not many ordinary fans will be obsessed with and worship a bad team that has been rebuilding.This is why the fans of the Kings are much, much less than the gorgeous "Princeton" offensive Kings in Adelman's time. It is because this team has not made the playoffs for too long. It has been too long, and those fans at that time either switched to other teams, or simply stopped watching basketball games.And only a small group still stick to it, and some even bought season tickets to watch the team's entire season's games every game, including garbage games with bad acting skills.

After the game, Xie Kai accepted an interview.

When the reporter asked: "You were in such a good state in the third quarter. If you played in the last quarter of this game, it is very likely to break your personal single-game scoring record (3 points). Why did you choose not to play?" Was it the coach's idea?"

Xie Kai shook his head: "It's not entirely the coach's idea. In fact, Dave asked me if I wanted to play. It's my own decision. The game has entered garbage time, and I don't think I need to break the so-called 'record'. Play. If you want to break the record, there are many opportunities in the future, there is no need to be in this game."

The content of Xie Kai's interview was frantically reposted in major media shortly after the game.This remark also allowed him to gain a group of fans, especially those fans of the Kings. Some of them had problems with Xie Kai before and didn't like him. After this incident, they also started to follow him.

Xie Kai didn't even know that his choice actually brought him such positive publicity, which was unexpected.

After this game, the Grizzlies' record came to 23 wins and 9 losses, continuing to rank third in the West.

On January 1, the Grizzlies played against the Warriors at the Oracle Center in Oakland.

The Warriors are really impressive this season. Last season, they were the third from the bottom in the West. So far this season, they have 3 wins and 22 losses, ranking fifth in the West.Although this record does not represent the final record, it is still good enough.They also have a good chance of making the playoffs this season.

In this game, Black Bear Randolph is still on truce, and Speights continues to start.

In this game, the Grizzlies relied on their better defense, and all five starters scored in double figures, and finally beat their opponents in the away game, ushering in a 5-game winning streak.

On January 1, the Grizzlies played back-to-back away games against the Mavericks.The Black Bears continued to be absent, and they should have fought too hard in the last game.
