Chapter 494: An Unprecedented Steal!
How can it be! How could such a thing happen!
Under the continuous sprints, continuous jumps, and continuous steals, Xie Chen, who had not stopped for a moment, still had the strength to jump up and dunk, and it was a difficult dunk under the crotch! This can't help but make people want to ask, are Xie Chen's two legs human legs? Don't you feel tired at all?
Anyone who has to be out of breath after completing these actions one after another, Xie Chen failed to make layups twice, and then turned back to steal twice, and he was obviously tired, but why did he jump up and play this kind of dunk again?
The fans at the scene shouted like crazy, the New York Knicks finally have a superstar like no one before!
"I can't believe it's true, before Xie, no one in the NBA played like him, no one could complete a crotch dunk like that!"
"I don't even know how his top 10 goals this season will be arranged, one is more exciting than the other, and one is more against the sky! Will this ball and the leaping Bagnani ball be in the top two? God knows if he'll have more spectacular goals to come! ”
The whole arena was full of admiration and admiration, Jimmy Butler and Gasol, who were standing next to Xie Chen, were completely stunned, none of them could believe that Xie Chen was just detained, this was simply a monster, they suddenly felt that they were fighting against another creature!
Hojberg also kept shaking, the opponent was too strong and too BT, and the most terrible thing was that Xie Chen's ball shocked the entire Bulls team, whether it was the five people on the court or the substitutes off the court.
Hojberg was worried: "Oops, Xie is too strong, the whole team is shocked by him, let him play like this, if he really encounters it in the playoffs, I'm afraid he will be psychologically afraid of the opponent." Xie must not be allowed to score like this again. ”
Hojberg quickly called a timeout to calm down the team's players and formulate a strategy to deal with Xie Chen by the way, and during the timeout, Xie Chen's goal was repeated on the big screen.
"Hahaha, thanks. You're so handsome, you broke Jimmy Butler four times in a row, and Pau Gasol one, and you can still complete such a dunk, tonight is yours! Anthony patted Xie Chen's shoulder appreciatively and said.
Xie Chen was also very happy, it was too easy to score after the opening, and it continued all the time, 100 points is definitely a joke.
It's just that the pause comes back. Xie Chen knew that he didn't want to score 100 points in this game.
Unexpectedly, when the Knicks were attacking, the Bulls took the initiative to foul Lopez.
"The Bulls are using shark slashing techniques?"
Not just cut the inside, Derrick Williams served out of bounds, and before the ball could be sent, it was pounced on by the Bulls player for a foul.
Everyone will cut it, but not Xie Chen, and don't let Xie Chen score!
In order to prevent Xie Chen from continuing to play. The Bulls actually made this move to let the opponent go to the free throw! Just to prevent Xie Chen from performing to score!
Xie Chen turned his head and glanced at Hoiberg. The other party also looked at Xie Chen sharply, and Xie Chen secretly screamed that it was not good: "This old guy is no longer ready to let me score any more points, keep making free throws like this, I don't want to score another 100 points tonight." ”
Once he can't break Chamberlain's record, Xie Chen won't be able to get fusion points. When it comes to the playoffs, I'm afraid it's a very big hidden danger.
This went on for a few minutes. Although the Knicks have been scoring in the most relaxed way, it is too boring to always shoot free throws, and the nerves that have been tense just now suddenly relaxed, which makes people feel particularly boring, every time a Bulls player fouls a Knicks player other than Xie Chen. The fans always booed.
"As long as Xie is going to perform like this, the game will continue like this, unless he can play like a normal person." Hojberg is not afraid of being scolded, and he is more insulted than making the players lose confidence, and he admitted the game for nothing.
"Fred is a good guy who has studied finance and knows what a stop loss is. It seems that Xie can't get off the field, this kind of game will continue forever, and he is really not afraid of being embarrassed. Fisher saw that Xie Chen was being targeted by Hoiberg, and he didn't want to make the game so boring, so he quickly replaced Xie Chen.
After Xie Chen left the court, the Bulls really stopped using foul tactics, and everything returned to its normal rhythm.
The first quarter of the game ended like this, according to Xie Chen's original plan, he could score at least 30 points in the first quarter, but now he has less than 10 points, and the most important thing is that in the next three quarters, once Xie Chen shows that he wants to score, the old guy from Hojberg will repeat his old tricks, cut his teammates, and prevent Xie Chen from scoring.
It's a terrible feeling that the plan has been ruined.
Fisher saw that Xie Chen was very unhappy, and comforted: "Xie, I know you want to vent today, but Fred probably won't allow you to do this, maybe you can find a coach who is not so targeted at you, I'm afraid there is no chance to play the Cavaliers in the next game, but the next game is to play the Pelicans." Don't be discouraged, even if you don't do it, no one in the league will doubt your strength, you look at you, you didn't play the first quarter, you easily scored five steals, all have a chance to break the single-game steal record, who can do it in the NBA? ”
Fisher's words didn't work for Xie Chen, but when he said the words "single-game steal record", Xie Chen suddenly had a spirit and was annoyed in his heart: "I'm so stupid, I only think about breaking Chamberlain's single-game scoring record, but I forgot to break the single-game steal record, and I may also get fusion points!" And I've got off to a good start and now have five steals! ”
If Xie Chen is not mistaken, the NBA's single-game steal record is only 11, held by Larry Kennon and Kendall Gill, the most recent being in 1999, a record that has not been touched in the league for nearly 20 years.
Xie Chen is the steal king of the current league, but even so, he only averages 2.5 steals per game, and he wants to complete more than 10 steals in a game, especially in the current league, it is too difficult, Xie Chen still has a certain amount of luck with five steals in the first quarter, and it is also a very difficult task to get seven more steals next.
But since the score is doomed, you can only take the road of steals.
Xie Chen, who had a new plan, finally smiled, and then said to Anthony: "I don't want to score in this game, so I'll leave the task of scoring to you." ”
Anthony also knew that Hoyberg would stare at Xie Chen, and would do whatever it took to stop Xie Chen, so he said, "Brother." It's a pity for you, the new coach of the Bulls is so bad at being a person, and he is really amazing. ”
Xie Chen smiled: "It's okay, but there are other things on the field that I need you to help me." ”
The two whispered on the bench.
In the second quarter, Xie Chen and Anthony appeared together.
As soon as Xie Chen appeared, he won the applause of the audience, and there were some boos mixed with this applause. This boo is obviously not aimed at Xie Chen, but at Hojberg, and the fans don't want Hojberg to use shark slashing tactics to stop Xie Chen again.
Hojberg ignored it, he decided to do whatever he wanted to do and stick to it: "As long as Xie still dares to play like this, then I'm sorry, you still watch your teammates shoot free throws, this ball is a big deal, I gave it to you!" ”
At this time, Jimmy Butler was also in a complicated mood, and allowing an entire team to make such a sacrifice in order to deal with Xie Chen has proven how powerful Xie Chen is. Jimmy Butler doesn't admit that he is not as good as Xie Chen, and there is no way.
The Bulls didn't foul as soon as they came up, but they had to look at Xie Chen's style of play first, whether he was still attacking like a hungry wolf like in the first quarter, if Xie Chen restrained a little, passed the ball or scored slowly, Hojberg would not let Xie Chen score at all.
Xie Chen held the ball at the top of the arc and faced Jimmy Butler one-on-one, Xie Chen smiled at Butler: "I thought your coach did that to me when I was doing that." You'll dissuade him from doing that, because that would prevent fair play between us. ”
Jimmy Butler was unceremonious: "Who's going to play fair with you." You're a monster! Go back to your planet! By the way, take LeBron with you! ”
Xie Chen smiled, even if Jimmy Butler was not convinced by himself now, he was afraid of himself, Xie Chen used the block to easily pass Jimmy Butler and burst inside!
"It's coming!" Gasol, who is sitting on the inside, is like a big enemy, and he doesn't know whether Xie Chen is ready to make a layup or a dunk. He didn't want to be detained by Xie Chen.
Joaquin Noah was on the left side and didn't jump, because he was a little far away from Xie Chen's position, and knowing Xie Chen's ability, the ball rushed over and gave Xie Chen 2+1 for nothing. It's better to just look at it, score, ride the dunk, anyway, if you can't be arrogant, the coach will block you with a foul!
Gasol squinted his eyes and jumped, not even daring to see where Xie Chen's ball was, and Xie Chen did not buckle Pau Gasol, but after jumping up, he suddenly passed the ball in the direction of the left.
It turned out to be a jump pass? This is also a trick that Xie Chen often uses, but looking in the direction of this pass, who is this ball passed to? There are no Knicks players in that position!
I saw that the ball finally fell into Noah's hands!
Xie Chen's pass was wrong!?
"Hahahaha, thank you idiot, you actually passed the ball to me!" Noah was overjoyed, he thought that Xie Chen was a violent dunk at Gasol's head, but he didn't expect to be so timid that he didn't dare to confront Gasol, and passed the ball out in a panic and passed it to his hands!
Noah was about to shoot the ball, only to hear a snap!
The ball in his hand was knocked off!
It's Xie Chen!
"What?" Noah was stunned, he received Xie Chen's ball unexpectedly, completely defenseless and unprepared for what to do next, let alone that Xie Chen could run over and break his ball in such a short time.
At this time, Anthony slipped into the baseline very covertly, and after Xie Chen completed the steal, he passed the ball from behind and handed the ball to the basket, and Anthony dunked it.
Xie Chen and Anthony smiled and high-fived.
"The sixth steal." Xie Chen said secretly, fortunately, the opponent has not realized that Xie Chen's goal in this game is not to score, but to steal.
As for what Hoiberg will do next, it doesn't matter to Xie Chen, even if he continues to use foul tactics, it will not affect Xie Chen's steal.
Of course, Hojberg saw that Xie Chen chose to pass the ball twice at this time, and he felt that there was no need to do so for the time being.
"That's right, how good it is for a point guard to pass the ball honestly, it is even better to pass it to our players, this time Noah is completely defenseless, and the next time there is such an opportunity, he will definitely not let Xie snatch it again." Hojberg smiled.
But in fact, he was completely wrong.
Xie Chen glanced at Anthony, and Anthony also glanced at Noah along Xie Chen's eyes, is that unlucky guy him? No problem, see how your brother cooperates with you to complete the steal!
Generally speaking, steals are done when the opponent is attacking, but Xie Chen's plan happened in the front court of his team's attack.
Xie Chen is doing something that no one has done before, and if he is someone else, no one can think of brushing steals like this.
The Knicks attacked, Anthony played with his back in the low post, all the Bulls' players' minds were all on defense, the ball was no different from Anthony in Xie Chen, Anthony is an athlete who grew up under the traditional rules, so those traditional players are very skilled, and the low-post singles are a great threat to the Bulls, so there are two players staring at Anthony.
Anthony kept watching Xie Chen's movements, looking for an opportunity, and suddenly threw the ball in Xie Chen's direction, although it was Xie Chen's position, it was not aimed at Xie Chen's body, but Noah, and it was aimed at Noah's face!
With a bang, the ball smashed directly into Noah's face!
Anthony also made a pass error?
Noah subconsciously closed his eyes, but he instinctively held the ball smashed in his face firmly, but he didn't notice that Xie Chen was behind him.
Syllable!
One-size-fits-all, Xie Chen once again cut off Noah's ball, at this time, Anthony rushed over with a tacit understanding, Xie Chen threw it to the basket, and Anthony caught the dunk in the air!
"Good shot! It's so beautiful! Xie and Anthony's two collaborations are really a rare tacit understanding! ”
"Haha, Noah should have cried, two Knicks passed the ball to him, but both times it was broken by Xie, and the ball stayed in his hand for less than a second, hahaha."
Hojberg was also dumbfounded, what are the Knicks playing with?
Xie Chen and Anthony high-fived happily again, and Xie Chen whispered praise: "You passed the ball so well, it took me no effort to break the ball." ”
"Haha, I've always been playing in a proper way and don't want to engage in these small actions, I didn't expect it to be so cool to play once in a while, thank you, I'm going to be broken by you, you are responsible for me!" Anthony laughed too.
Noah, who was beaten for no reason and inexplicably had two mistakes, was stunned there, and he didn't understand what had happened, and he didn't do anything at all, so he was cut off twice? This made Noah wonder if Xie Chen and Anthony really made a passing error, or did they deliberately join forces to tease themselves?
Xie Chen didn't bother to pay attention to the shadow area in Noah's heart, this was his seventh steal, and there were five more before breaking the record! (To be continued.) )
