Halftime was drawn by the Pacers who were fighting away, this result was not satisfactory to Coach Spo, but Wade's sudden outburst made Spo very happy, before that, he personally talked to Wade, and said that Xie Chen took on a lot of pressure in the regular season, but Xie is a rookie after all, so I hope Wade can share more for Xie Chen in the playoffs.

Spo hoped that Wade could better help Xie Chen and help the team, however, to his surprise, it was really exciting to see Wade a year or two ago tonight.

If Wade can maintain this state, not to mention that the Pacers Spo is not in his eyes, the same is true for the Bulls, and the Cavaliers can also fight!

Coach Frank is still quite satisfied with the Pacers' performance in the first half, the Pacers have been suppressing the Heat for the entire half, if it weren't for Xie Chen's throwing in those two bottom corner three-pointers before leaving the court, the Pacers would definitely be in the lead, and in terms of rebounding, the Pacers did a good job, grabbed a lot of frontcourt rebounds, what they had to do was to improve the success rate and convert the offense into scoring.

Coach Frank glanced at Paul George, who was panting, and asked with concern, "Paul, how are you feeling?" It's your first start since you came back, can you afford that long playing time? ”

Frank was a little afraid that Paul George would be overwhelmed, after all, Paul George was also a very winning guy, scoring a team-high 15 points in the entire first half, and he was also more strenuous on defense.

Paul George smiled slightly: "I'm fine, coach. In the first half, we had a successful defensive strategy against Hsieh, who barely rushed to the basket and didn't get too many fouls from Roy Hibbert and David West, which was a good thing, but he managed to score 16 points in the first half. I was really scared because I felt like Wade was scoring alone throughout the first half. ”

Not only Paul George has this feeling, but many people, including the coach, have this feeling, Xie Chen did not shoot and hold the ball too much in the first half, and the Heat handed the ball more to Wade to handle, maybe they were used to Xie Chen scoring with the ball. Once Xie Chen is a "role player" who is assisted, it is easy to ignore Xie Chen's scoring.

Coach Frank looked at the number and said: "In the first half, he really didn't shoot much, but the shooting rate was very high, and the three-point shooting rate was 100 percent, George Hill, this kid seems to shoot very accurately in the bottom corner, and in the second half, you should always pay attention to not letting him receive the ball lightly in the bottom corner." ”

"I see. Instructor. George Hill said a little depressed, in fact, George Hill's defense was relatively successful throughout the first half, but he never expected Xie Chen's shooting rate to be so high, especially the bottom corner of the three-point, Hill as long as he was half a beat slower, Xie Chen would definitely be able to hit steadily.

But no matter how good a shooter is, it's impossible to maintain such a high shooting percentage from start to finish, so, in the eyes of the Pacers. Xie Chen's shooting percentage dropped in the second half, and Wade, who is no longer at his peak, will also face physical problems in the second half. At that time, as long as Xie Chen is still prevented from breaking through the attack basket, the Pacers' winning rate will still be relatively large.

Moreover, once Xie Chen really finds his form, David West has already thought of a strategy to deal with this playoff rookie.

At the beginning of the third quarter, Xie Chen and Chalmers formed a backcourt partnership on the stage. Wade is temporarily rested, and Henry Walker is also temporarily replacing the mediocre Rohr Deng tonight.

Looking at the white sea of the whole field, standing on the familiar and unfamiliar court and gasping, Xie Chen secretly cheered himself up in his heart: "Although the first half scored a lot, it was not scored with my conventional weapon. I need to get my form back in the second half and once both me and D-Wade open up the game and the playoffs ...... I've got to prove myself in the playoffs! ”

Defending Xie Chen is Solomon Hill, this guy scored 10 points in the first half, which is higher than his average points per game this season, which makes Xie Chen very unhappy, in my home court, how can you play extraordinarily?

Looking at this slightly silly guy, Xie Chen held the ball on the left side and laughed: "You know what? Man, I can get past you lightly! ”

Solomon Hill let out a disdainful snort: "If you have the ability, you can try it!" ”

Xie Chen smiled, stepped into the three-point line, pretended to break through, and then suddenly took a step back, and then withdrew to the three-point line, Solomon Hill was not completely fooled, he had always been extremely jealous of Xie Chen's three-point projection, so he didn't retreat too much, and when he saw that Xie Chen still wanted to shoot three points, he immediately stepped forward to cover it.

"Idiot, that's a feint!" Paul George, who was standing on the side, saw this scene and exclaimed a little depressed in his heart.

Xie Chen really didn't choose to shoot, but waited for the opponent to jump up, leaned his body against the opponent, and the moment the referee blew the whistle, he threw the ball out, it didn't matter whether the ball went in or not, Xie Chen got three free throws.

"Well done!"

"Damn it!"

The Heat players and the Pacers players had very different reactions, but they didn't seem to see that this was just Xie Chen's fire-hot appetizer.

The Pacers are indeed very tenacious, Solomon Hill received a pass from his teammates, and even returned Xie Chen a three-pointer, which further aroused Xie Chen's fighting spirit, the next offense, Xie Chen faced Solomon Hill's defense again, unswervingly accelerated and broke through the defense directly, and before the bag came up, he had already rushed straight to the basket!

Xie Chen, it's flying again!

In the face of David West's defense, Xie Chen was not afraid at all, and he had already competed with the opponent before, Xie Chen looked calm, glided to the basket and staged a Ross-style signature layup, folding the layup!

David West saw that Xie Chen had already rushed up, and did not dare to foul, the basketball rose high to the top edge of the rebound, and then hit the board, slowly falling, and the ball went in!

The audience is boiling! This is the Xie Chen they are familiar with, and this is the Xie Chen they are looking forward to!

"Hahaha, Xie is finally activated! This is his game, no, this is his first breakthrough layup in the playoffs, and it's so enjoyable to watch! ”

"He's still in hot form, and looking at his bounce, stay in the air and go to the basket, it's not the same as before. He didn't shy away just because it was a playoff game. ”

After scoring this goal, Xie Chen also felt very happy, the offensive state of the past was finally recovered, and the feeling of taking off was simply wonderful, and next. Xie Chen also has a big gift to give to the walkers who came from afar!

A minute later, Xie Chen held the ball at the top of the arc, but he didn't dribble, he looked a little hesitant, and he almost lit up the defender again. Then, Xie Chen did not choose to shoot, nor did he choose to dribble, but suddenly and strangely passed the ball to Henry Walker on the right, Walker received the ball and prepared to shoot with three points, because Xie Chen had consumed a lot of offensive time just now, and there was not much time left for the Heat organization, and Walker also had three-point ability, so he wanted to shoot one unexpectedly.

Look at Walker's stance. The Pacers thought he was going to shoot, but they didn't expect that after Xie Chen finished passing the ball, he went directly down to ask for the ball, Walker jumped up and passed the ball to Xie Chen, who was quickly inserted, and after Xie Chen received the basket, he faced the basket and flew up directly. Hibbert was startled, still stunned. Xie Chen had already flown up, and Hibbert subconsciously stretched out his arm to block Xie Chen, but to no avail!

Hearing a domineering sound, Xie Chen poured the ball into the basket with one hand! Also caused a foul on Hibbert!

The scene was shocked! Everyone in the Heat bench opened their mouths wide, and Wade, who had also dunked Hibbert in the first half, was also dumbfounded, and then smiled happily: "The all-around star in the regular season." It's finally back! ”

At the beginning of the third quarter, Xie Chen dominated the game with a three-point feint, a breakthrough layup, and a dunk on the ball, which instantly overtook the Pacers in the Heat's score, and the Pacers had no choice but to call a timeout.

Coach Frank was furious: "Don't let Xie Chong in, never let Xie Chong in." That's something I said countless times before the game, why you forgot that as soon as the first half was over! Where are your defenses? Roy, that dunk just now, you just watched him dunk in front of you so stupidly? And gave him a free throw? ”

Roy Hibbert was obviously aggrieved: "At that time, I really didn't expect him to dunk, he didn't go down the ball quickly after sharing the ball, after receiving the ball, he only took a step and flew directly to dunk, which ...... It's incredible! He doesn't seem to need a run-up at all, and he can jump that high! I didn't have time to react, and by the time I jumped up to block it, he had already dunked the ball into the basket, and I was completely unconscious of the foul. ”

Hibbert felt that Xie Chen was a god man, seemingly careless, but the instant explosiveness was so strong, Hibbert didn't know, the moment he jumped, who gave Xie Chen energy?

At this time, Paul George spoke for Hibbert: "You can't blame Roy, Xie this guy is very fast, unless he prepares one step ahead, it will be difficult to defend, he has obviously found his form, we must not let him score 40 points casually like in the regular season, we must stop him!" ”

The whole team responded in unison, and David West clenched his fists even more fiercely.

David West is the one who has the most grievances with Xie Chen in the Pacers team, the Pacers don't have Granger, without Lance Stephenson, the responsibility of provoking the opponent falls on David West, not to mention that West has always been unaccustomed to Xie Chen, this time playing a series with the Heat, he has long decided not to let the other party play well.

When the two teams returned to the field, David West glanced at Xie Chen with vicious eyes, Xie Chen was in high spirits and in full shape at this time, and he never imagined that one of the opponents was planning to make a trick.

George Hill held the ball at the top of the arc, Xie Chen was engrossed in single defense, at this time, David West stepped forward to block and dismantle George Hill, and a huge wall of flesh stood in front of Xie Chen's eyes, Xie Chen realized David West's storage, but he didn't care, his eyes were always on George Hill, and he also predicted Hill's next move.

Sure enough, with the help of David West's body, Hill suddenly broke through to the right, Xie Chen had to follow as soon as possible, but David West was in front of him, so Xie Chen had to quickly bypass David West's two meters and six super large obstacles, but unexpectedly, at the moment when Xie Chen and David West came into contact, West's shoulder suddenly exerted force, and suddenly knocked Xie Chen who was starting over, Xie Chen was shocked back by this domineering force on the spot, and the whole person fell to the ground.

At this point, the referee also blew the whistle and David West covered the foul.

But even if the referee blew a foul, Xie Chen was extremely unhappy, because David West clearly deliberately hit Xie Chen, not a simple block, Xie Chen's upper body was hit by David West, and he was angry, so he got up and scolded David West immediately: "You dirty guy!" You can't win! ”

David West was blown for a foul and already showed a look of grievance, and when he heard Xie Chen's accusation, David West smiled contemptuously: "Hehe, aren't you pretending to be quite similar?" We are each other. ”

Xie Chen really wanted to scold Lao Tzu for pretending to be your uncle! David West hit him with such a big force and such a big weight, Xie Chen was simply knocked down by this force, this guy actually thought that Xie Chen was faking a fall?

Maybe it was Xie Chen's physical confrontation when he blocked James' dunk that made him, including many people, think that Xie Chen's physical confrontation was very strong, and he was far from being knocked down lightly, but how did they know how much difference there was between Xie Chen who used skills and didn't use skills?

Hassan Whiteside couldn't get used to it, and if he changed to the regular season, he might have already asked David West to trash talk or wait for an opportunity to retaliate, but now he is much more sensible, so he stepped forward and comforted Xie Chen.

Xie Chen calmed down, but he didn't expect that the nightmare was far from over.

When Xie Chen was scrambling for an offensive rebound, David West happened to be standing behind Xie Chen, and Xie Chen occupied the most advantageous position, David West didn't seem to be in a hurry, just when the basketball bounced over and Xie Chen was about to jump, West's two arms leaning on Xie Chen's back pushed Xie Chen forward, Xie Chen was so angry that he couldn't bear it anymore, and swung his elbow behind his back, and then, David West and Xie Chen instantly became entangled.

There was a restlessness at the scene, and the players on both sides hurriedly rushed over to pull the fight, during which Hassan Whiteside was protecting Xie Chen and retreating, Paul George, who rushed over to La West, spewed trash talk, saying Take care of your team's mad dog, Paul George was angry, and scolded What are you, but fortunately, Wade, who has higher qualifications and prestige, came out and calmed down the chaos and did not let the two sides continue to scold each other like this.

This time, the referee gave one of the two sides a technical foul, and seeing Xie Chen's angry appearance, Wade had to comfort the other party seriously: "Xie, maybe you don't like it, maybe you find it unbearable, but this is the playoffs!" (To be continued......) R1292
