Basketball K God

Chapter 89

Back from the timeout, Xie Kai fouled in a defense, but he had no choice but to be replaced by coach Reggie Tois again!

"I guess Kane is very bitter?" Craig Sager said with a wry smile.

Mark Jackson sighed and said: "Kane still has to learn to adjust his emotions in time when facing such things. Rookies want to grow, face various difficulties, and then solve them. This is the correct way to grow. way. And even if you can’t solve it, you can get exercise, which is another form of growth.”

Because he was a substitute, Xie Kai was not on the court with Yi Jianlian for 1 minute in the first half, which made him feel a little regretful.Although the two did not play in the same position, he still looked forward to playing against this compatriot on the court.

In the first half of the game, the Kings tied the score, and the two sides ended the second quarter with a score of 52:52.

In the second half of the game, the two teams have been playing very anxiously.Xie Kai performed well, but before the end of the third quarter, he had committed 3 fouls.

In this game, Xie Kai finally left the field with 6 fouls, but he felt that he did not shy away from the field because of fear of fouls.

The two teams failed to decide the winner in regular time and eventually entered overtime.

In the overtime game, Kenyon Dooling of the Nets played well, helping the team finally narrowly beat the opponent in the away game, giving the opponent a 4-game losing streak.

Yi Jianlian made 10 of 4 shots and scored 8 points and 2 rebounds.

谢开本场比赛首次6犯离场，在登场的21分钟上场时间里，6投4中，其中3分球2投1中，罚球2罚1中，得到10分7个篮板7次助攻2个抢断2个盖帽以及1个失误，表现很出色。

After the game, Xie Kai and Yi Jianlian cherished each other and chatted together for a long time.

The team lost 4 games in a row, Xie Kai was not happy, but his mentality was much better than the previous losing streak.He is no longer stubborn, he knows that sometimes the victory of the game can not be achieved by relying on enthusiasm.The strength of the team is there, and I cannot selectively ignore it.This is the NBA, not a lottery center. With luck, you can win big prizes.

After the game, the Kings coach said in an interview with reporters at the press conference: "It is a pity to lose this game. The team will make some lineup adjustments and attempts in the next game, hoping to get rid of the current situation. Poor performance."

The current record of the Kings is 5 wins and 12 losses. As the team's head coach, Reggie Tois is also under a lot of pressure.In the NBA, there are really many examples of coaches being fired because of poor team records.This team's record last season was 38 wins and 44 losses. Although they did not make the playoffs, they were not that far behind.Now, if this kind of record continues, there is no hope of getting tickets to the playoffs, and it is very likely that they will go straight to the No. [-] pick.

Of course, the lineup of the Kings is there. Even if the team is full of health, it is the lowest combat effectiveness in the league.But it is well known that the team is poor. If your record is rubbish, you always have to find a scapegoat.The head coach is the most likely candidate to be the scapegoat.

The most criticized thing about Reggie Tois is his wonderful starting lineup of 3 insiders. Regarding this point, even if he explained it many times, it is still difficult to convince the public.In the NBA, performance has always been used to speak for itself. If you have a winning streak in 3 inside lanes, so what if you go against the trend of the times?It is possible to get the reputation of "Master of Tactics" too!
The next opponent of the Kings will be the Utah Jazz.The Jazz is located on the plateau home in Salt Lake City, which is the famous "devil's home court" in the NBA. Today's Kings want to go there to end their 4-game losing streak. The difficulty index is so high that it is unimaginable.

The Kings flew to Salt Lake City and finished routine training at the Jazz's training facility.

Xie Kai took a shower and stood up to wipe his body. Bobby Jackson next to him looked at his naked body and said, "Kane, I found out that you are stronger now than you were in Houston. It seems that you have spent time working out. !"

Of course, Xie Kai couldn't tell Bobby Jackson that he had the treasure of "consciousness training", so he could only nod and admit: "I'm too skinny, so I want to gain some muscle!"

Bobby Jackson nodded in agreement and said: "You have a good idea. In the NBA, strength is very important! You really need to add at least 10 pounds of muscle, which will benefit you on both ends of the offense and defense."

"Well, that's what I thought too."

"Are you in a bad mood? Are you still sad about the losing streak?" Bobby Jackson asked.

Xie Kai nodded, and shook his head again: "Bobby, thank you for your enlightenment, I am not in a corner now. But losing consecutive games, I will still be unhappy."

"Hey - basketball players, who likes to lose! But sometimes, it is also helpless. Almost half of the 30 teams in the NBA will miss the playoffs, and among the teams that missed the playoffs, Almost half of the final wins will be less than 30 games. So it is inevitable that there will be a losing streak. You are still young and have not experienced that kind of losing streak. At that time, it really makes a competitive Conscious players are completely desperate!" Bobby Jackson said, "Kane, adjust your mentality. When you can't control the outcome of the team, then all you can do is adjust your mentality. Otherwise, no one can help you !"

Bobby Jackson's words can always make Xie Kai get the effect like a guiding light when he is a little confused.He felt that he was really lucky. In such a difficult time, there was such a big brother reminding him.

On November 11, the Kings visited Salt Lake City and challenged the Jazz away.

There is an obvious gap in strength between the two teams. The core of the Kings, Kevin Martin, will continue to be absent. In addition, the Devils in Salt Lake City are famous at home, so this game has not yet started. Negative projections, even those from the gaming industry, are overwhelmingly in favor of the home team.

In this game, Kings coach Reggie Tois did make lineup adjustments as he said in the press conference after the last game.Having already lost 4 games in a row, they did not use 3 insiders to start this game. Instead, they removed rookie Jason Thompson, who had not performed well recently, from the starting lineup.

This is Xie Kai's third start this season, which makes him very excited and wants to help the team end their losing streak in away games.

In this game, from the first quarter to the end of halftime, the Kings played exceptionally well, not at all like a bad team that has lost 4 games in a row.

At the end of the half, the two teams tied at 52!
But in the third quarter, the situation changed suddenly. In this quarter, the Kings lost to their opponents by 3 points, and the game completely entered garbage time.

In the end, the Jazz defended the home court, beat the Kings, and gave their opponents a 5-game losing streak!
