Chapter Ninety-Five: Not yet!
"Another 40+! Xie Chen has become the player with the most points over 40 times this season! The scoring list has further widened the gap between him and Kobe Bryant and Harden, and it seems that this scoring champion may really belong to Xie Chen! At the end of the game, Yang Jian also breathed a sigh of relief, such a wonderful game is undoubtedly a kind of enjoyment for the commentators.
At this time, at the scene of the American Airlines Arena, the audience cheered, and Xie Chen, the biggest contributor to the Heat tonight, was also stopped by a war correspondent, holding a microphone and asking him: "Chris Xie, first of all, congratulations, your watch tonight is perfect, we want to know, when you fell behind by more than a dozen points in the fourth quarter, and you were surrounded by opponents, did you despair?" Did you ever think the team would come back again? â
didn't wait for Xie Chen to answer, Wade on the side saw Xie Chen being interviewed, ran to the staff and grabbed a mop, and quietly dragged the floor behind Xie Chen to steal the camera, Xie Chen was just about to answer, when he saw this boss who came to grab the camera, he couldn't help laughing, it can be seen that the Heat has completed the feat of 24 consecutive wins, and Wade is also very happy, but when it comes to the ability to grab the camera, the most powerful in the team is Chris Bosh.
When James was interviewed, Bosh secretly squatted in front of James, and suddenly an ostrich head appeared in front of the camera, and mainland netizens also gave him the title of "Meng Bo". But the current Bosh is not in the mood to do this for Xie Chen.
Xie Chen smiled and glanced at Wade, who had superb acting skills on his own mopping floor, and then looked at the camera and replied: "Thank you, we worked hard as a team tonight, we won this victory together, when I was caught by the opponent in the fourth quarter and couldn't score, I was really anxious, because I wanted to help the team win, but I never despaired, I always believed that we would reverse the score and win." â
The reporter continued: "You're going to face the Nets, Jazz and Wizards next, are you confident that the Heat will break a 27-game winning streak?" â
'Of course we have confidence, that's our goal and we're very close to that.' Xie Chen replied with a smile, the next three games are all ambitions for Xie Chen and the entire Heat, and they are bound to win 27 consecutive victories, and the 28th opponent is the Celtics, and now they are by no means the team that can end the Heat! Therefore, Xie Chen vowed to set a winning streak for the zĂ o team this time!
"At the end of the month, you will face a formidable opponent at home, the Cleveland Cavaliers led by LeBron James, which is also the team with the most hope to break your winning streak this month, and the current Heat winning streak is the one who led the team to set a zĂ o, and you and LeBron are often discussed together, what do you think of this game? Are you looking forward to fighting him? The reporter asked a very sensitive question, and Wade, who was mopping the floor next to him, couldn't help but avoid it after hearing it.
Xie Chen smiled: "Of course, he is the most powerful player and opponent in the league now, everyone wants to fight him, and the relationship between the two of us is so ...... It's weird that we had a chance to be teammates, I mean, I don't know if he's going to break our winning streak, it's too early to tell, but if we can hold on until that point and not lose, then we're not afraid of any team. â
Xie Chen doesn't want to discuss himself and James together in front of the media, but it is undeniable that the game against the Cavaliers at the end of the month is the most important game after Xie Chen joins the NBA.
After returning to the locker room, Xie Chen and his teammates were interviewed by several media in the locker room, and after the interview, Wade told Xie Chen that he invited Gasol and Rose of the Bulls to his villa for dinner in the evening, and asked Xie Chen to go with him, and Xie Chen did not refuse.
In the evening, in Wade's villa, the four of them were full of wine and food, and walked to the basketball court in loose clothes, Rose saw Wade's rice LOGO in the middle line of the basketball court, and couldn't help but complain: "D-WADE, I want to say, this LOGO of yours is too ugly, what do you think?" Paul? Thank? â
Pau Gasol and Xie Chen both smiled indifferently, noncommittal, Xie Chen was quite impressed by the LOGO of Wade, because it is very similar to the Chinese character "rice", but it is obviously not very good in terms of aesthetics.
Wade explained with a serious face: "D-ROSE, that can only mean that your taste is too poor, I think it's pretty good, you know?" I liked Jordan very much when I was a child, so I often drew Jordan's logo on paper, but this logo was too TM difficult to draw, so I decided at that time that I would become famous in the future, and my logo must be very simple, so that my fans can draw it simply. â
Pau Gasol smiled, looked at Xie Chen and asked, "Xie, what is your LOGO?" IS NIKE DESIGNED FOR YOU? â
"Yes, Paul, it's a very Chinese logo." Xie Chen took out his mobile phone and showed the three of them his personal LOGO, this LOGO is a bit of Tai Chi Yin and Yang gossip, but in terms of design, it looks very trendy.
"Very cool, thanks, when you have your own basketball court, spray your logo on the middle line, it must be very handsome." Wade complimented.
Gasol and Ross obviously felt good, but Ross looked a little displeased, in fact, he was a little jealous in his heart, jealous that Xie Chen became famous in such a short period of time, and also won a big contract from NIKE, he disagreed with Xie Chen, the most important reason was that Xie Chen had lost to him.
At that time, Xie Chen's offensive means were still very simple, and he could only get three-point shots, although his strength has increased significantly now, but Ross still felt that Xie Chen was the defeated general of the general, so Ross gave Xie Chen a war letter: "Do you want to have a game?" You and me. â
Ross wants to be one-on-one with Xie Chen!
Wade and Gasol glanced at each other, obviously not wanting to see this happen, Wade said: "Just after eating, you guys are fighting bulls, isn't that okay?" â
Gasol also advised: "Yes, Derek, we have just finished the game, so don't be too tired." â
Rose didn't listen to the opinions of his teammates and Wade, but looked at Xie Chen with a smile: "What do you think?" If you don't agree, we won't fight, that's okay. â
Xie Chen smiled: "At that time, I was so rude to go to your training hall to challenge you, and you accepted it, how could I refuse you?" Come on, D-ROSE, I lost to you last time, and this time, I'm going to let you know that I'm fifty times stronger than I used to be! â
"Good!" Ross also readily agreed, immediately changing his clothes and shoes, and Wade and Gasol looked at each other helplessly and shrugged their shoulders.
Xie Chen attacked first, and did not make any moves in the face of Ross, Xie Chen is now also a master who often goes one-on-one, and he fully knows how to control the rhythm of the attack.
"Rose doesn't accept me now because he thinks I'm stealing from him, well, this one-on-one, I won't use your ability, use Curry, Kobe Bryant and my own ability to beat you!" Xie Chen said secretly.
Xie Chen changed direction and accelerated, passing Rose, but did not continue to rush forward, but made a quick stop and made a mid-range jumper.
"Beautiful pull-up jumper! Paul, which of the two of them do you think will win? Wade asked Gasol with a smile.
Gasol shook his head: "They are too strong, I don't dare to bet casually, I always thought that Xie Chen was just a three-point shooter, until today I didn't know that he actually had some shadows of young Kobe, Xie's backward jumper is getting better and better, I can only say that if Xie's hand is not bad, D-ROSE will not be able to prevent Xie's backward jumper." â
Gasol's analysis is good, the layup ability of the two is equal, the mid-range shooting Rose is superior, but the three-point shot Xie Chen is better, but Xie Chen has a trick that Ross can't compare, that is, the backward jumper, one-on-one, many offensive methods can be prevented, but the backward jumper, which is unsolvable.
Rose also frequently succeeded in attacking as soon as he came up, breaking through to the basket, maybe he had just finished eating, maybe he was a lot more mature, unlike Wei Shao, as long as he rushed in, he was a violent dunk, and in the face of no one's basket, Rose was just picking up the basket.
Gradually, Xie Chen's defense got better and better, and Rose couldn't break through to the inside line anymore.
"How do you feel that Xie's close defense is better and faster!" Rose was a little surprised that he didn't shake off Xie Chen's defense for two consecutive changes of direction.
There is no way, if you can't rush in, you can only shoot, Xie Chen and Rose are exactly the same height, and their arms stretched out to easily interfere with Rose, the ball hit the basket and bounced out!
Similarly, Rose is also very scruples about Xie Chen's ability to make baskets, so he resolutely prevents him from breaking in, and Xie Chen can't shoot three points every time, which is too risky, but Xie Chen has a move that Rose can't prevent even if he wants to, a backward jumper.
Xie Chen once again used Kobe's backward jumper, and Rose used all his strength to jump and block, but it was still to no avail, so he could only watch the basketball thrown high into the basket and hit!
Ten balls down, Xie Chen was 8 of 10, and Rose was 7 of 10.
"You've lost." After playing the last ball, Xie Chen picked up the basketball and walked towards Ross and said.
Xie Chen only missed two shots, while Rose didn't score 3 shots, and Xie Chen also shot one more three-pointer than Rose.
Rose panted and bent over his hands to touch his knees, he didn't want to accept this fact, but he had to accept this fact, he wanted to challenge Xie Chen again, but he asked himself if there was a way to prevent Xie Chen's backward jumper? But there was no answer.
Rose is not jealous of Xie Chen, on the contrary, he also wants to thank Xie Chen, that day, Xie Chen and Wade came to Chicago to play, Xie Chen stimulated Rose with words, and inspired the strongest Rose, although unfortunately suffered a slight injury, but after returning, he led the team to continue to win, although the Bulls are not a top team now, but the results are also fourth in the East!
"Yes, tonight, I lost." Rose stood up and smiled, although he admitted that he lost tonight, it didn't mean that he would lose to Xie Chen again.
But who knows, at this time, Gasol stood up and said: "Not yet! â
