A minute ago, the home fans were still negative, but now, with Xie Chen's two consecutive three-pointers, chasing the score to only 5 points, the feelings of the home fans are also rising.

McHale roared loudly and angrily on the sidelines, his ultimate requirement for this quarter was to lead by more than eight points, and Coach Spo hoped that by the end of the third quarter, the score gap would be within five points, and now there was still some time before the end of the third quarter, and it was still unknown who the end was closer to his expectations.

The Rockets played well today, both in terms of individual competitive state and tactical coordination, and they played smoothly, not at all like they were fighting on the road, and they were thrown two three-pointers by the opponent in a row, and they did not let them mess up.

The bearded Harden dribbled slowly, at this time, it had been replaced by Xie Chen to defend him, so as to save Wade's body, Harden was just past the midfield line, Xie Chen was close to him to make it difficult for him to move an inch, which is also the pressing defense that the Heat has always used, this kind of defense will force the game to speed up, forcing the opponent to not perform the proposed tactics, the ball holder is closely defended, and will be forced to take a hasty pass, and only the player who is far away from the basket can receive the ball, and the defender is ready to steal the pass at any time, or prompting the opponent to violate the rules for 24 seconds, or causing the opponent to make a mistake, or rushing to shoot.

However, this defensive system is based on the strong physical motivation of defensive players, when James was there, James, Wade, Bosh, and Battier were all very good defensive players, but now the Heat's lineup, height and physical quality are much worse than before, so the effect is very little.

Xie Chen hasn't learned any defensive skills yet, and the physical talent of the yellow race alone can't really oppress Harden.

The Heat suddenly wrapped up Harden, Harden was a little sticky, but finally passed the ball out, and finally, the ball went to Howard, who took a quick step and hit the basket, causing a foul on center Hamilton.

Howard was too strong, and it was too easy to play Hamilton, but fortunately, the free throw basket was unstable, and the two were one, giving the Heat a chance to continue chasing points.

Xie Chen didn't attack by himself as soon as he came up, and handed the ball to Wade, Wade was also a little powerless in the face of Ariza's defense, Xie Chen could feel that his state in the second half was not very good, and his hand was touched just now, and the shot should not be accurate at this time.

Xie Chen took the initiative to run again to get the ball back, and faced Beverley's defense again, it was time for him to impress the audience.

"You don't have a chance, boy!" Beverley had a gloomy face, he had just been played by Xie Chen once, and he was scolded by his coach and teammates one after another, hating Xie Chen at this time, at this time, not to mention Xie Chen mentioning Lowry, even if it was Jordan Bowen, Beverley would be deaf to the air!

Beverly sticks Xie Chen very tightly, obviously because he is afraid of Xie Chen's three-point shot, Xie Chen already has Lowry's ninety percent breakthrough ability, this time, it is even more effortless, an acceleration rushed directly over, Beverley was a little slow and half a beat, but he was still active in defense, and his hands were ready to stop Xie Chen, but he didn't expect Xie Chen to rush over, and Beverley grabbed the air directly with both hands!

Beverly was stunned, thinking that this hand could stop Xie Chen, even if he was a little suspected of fouling, but he didn't expect Xie Chen's strength and speed to ignore Beverley's defense.

"So fast! Beverley was completely left behind, he cared too much about Xie Chen's three-point shot! ”

After Xie Chen broke through the defense, James Harden, who had been staring at him, did not give Xie Chen a chance to shoot in the vacant position, but quickly stepped forward to make up for the defense, and in the face of Harden's supplementary defense, Xie Chen paused in place, and after that, a change of direction to the left directly passed Harden!

"Oh! He's over Harden again! He got past two defenders! ”

The fans at the scene were excited, and some of the spectators even stood up excitedly!

A player like Harden who only looks at the ball and doesn't look at people when defending, it is still relatively easy to deal with with Lowry's ability, plus the opponent has no experience and experience in defending himself at all, and even, Xie Chen feels that Harden will not expect that he will continue to break through, because there is a person in the penalty area that Xie Chen will never dare to face.

Dwight Howard!

Howard has been on the battlefield for a long time on the inside, what kind of talented player has he never seen? Although he also had the painful experience of being ridden by Kobe, Howard was still a rookie at that time, and now, no one dares to be presumptuous on his turf!

However, I don't know why, when Howard faced Xie Chen, he suddenly broke out in a cold sweat and was a little worried.

At this second, as if time had stopped, Wade looked at Xie Chen who was gradually entering the basket with his mouth wide open, Spo crossed his hands on his waist, but his two hands obviously had no strength, Bosh raised his head blankly as if he saw a strange landscape like a UFO, and domestic fans also held their breath, they hoped that Xie Chen would stop and stop the jump shot, even if he couldn't score because of Howard's interference, and he didn't want him to be slapped by Howard.

Courage is something that every outside player must have when he enters the interior line.

Jordan had it, Kobe Bryant had it, Maddie had it, Iverson had it, Wade had it, and although Xie Chen hadn't copied the skills of the layup, he also had the courage!

Xie Chen didn't pause at all, after passing Harden, he went directly into the restricted area, and when he rushed to Howard, he held the ball with both hands, and was ready to go to the basket!

"I won't let you get away with it!" Howard gritted his teeth, seeing Xie Chen's body moving to the right, he thought that Xie Chen would go directly to the right hand to make a layup, and the whole center of gravity followed, but he didn't expect Xie Chen to suddenly pull his hands to the left when he took the second step!

"Oh my God! This is...... This is Wade's signature action maze step! ”

Howard was shocked, he never expected that Xie Chen would dare to use Wade's Lost Trace Step in front of him!

Howard has lost his position, because at this time Xie Chen has gone around to Howard's left side to prepare for a left-handed layup, Howard was unwilling, two big hands directly fanned over, Howard hit Xie Chen's arm alive, the snap sound was very clear, at this time Xie Chen had already shot, the basketball was interfered with by Howard, and was thrown very high, and even reached the top edge of the basket.

The referee blew the whistle, Xie Chen also fell to the ground, the basketball slowly fell above the basket, paddled and padded on the edge of the basket, and the audience also followed with bated breath, and finally, the basketball finally stopped and fell into the basket very reluctantly.

"Damn it!" Howard cursed.

“LuckyBall！ 2+1！ Xie Chen hit a two-plus-one, or the first center Howard he faced! ”

"Although there is a lot of luck in this ball, even if it misses, it still causes Howard's foul, and it is a sure thing to score two points with Xie Chen's free throw shooting rate, Xie Chen has connected two defenders before, and used Wade's lost step layup, it seems that this ball is going to be in today's top ten."

Yang Yi and Yang Jian couldn't help but marvel, and the American Airlines Arena was even more joyful, Wade hurriedly rushed over to help Xie Chen up, and after helping him up, he excitedly "beaten" Xie Chen, overjoyed: "Boy, you really dare to use the Lost Steps!" ”

Because Xie Chen's practice is not very good, plus even if it is a lost step, the requirements for personal physical quality are also very high, not to mention facing a defensive warrior like Howard, so Wade didn't expect Xie Chen to dare to go to the basket at all, let alone use the lost step he taught him, at this moment, Wade is very proud, you know, Wade is the king of blocks under 6 feet 4 inches, and the player who is covered by him the most is Howard, he enjoys the thrill of defeating Howard, although he is old now, In the face of Howard, he suffered more and more, but he didn't expect his teammates to teach each other a lesson in their own way!

"Good shot!" Bosh and Luo Erdeng also stepped forward to high-five Xie Chen to celebrate.

When Xie Chen stood at the free throw line, everyone was marveling and praising Xie Chen, but Yang Yi, who had always been looking forward to Xie Chen, said at this time: "It can be seen that Xie Chen's strength, bounce, and feeling when he goes to the basket are still very ordinary, this ball can be said to be scored by Xie Chen, or it can be said to be scored by Howard, because Howard slapped Xie Chen on the arm, forcing Xie Chen to unconsciously throw the ball into the air, and then dangle it into the basket, this kind of ball is not replicable, but his breakthrough is getting better and better, and the three points are getting better and better, The big picture is getting better and better, and this is already something to be happy about for the Heat. ”

Xie Chen's level of layup just now was thoughtful, but his ability couldn't keep up, because the moment he made the layup, Lowry's ability disappeared, and he hadn't obtained anyone's layup ability, so he could only use his own, but the confrontation and layup ability in the air, Xie Chen's level was very average.

This is also Xie Chen's next big task, what to learn after learning breakthrough skills? Of course, it's the ability to learn the basket, and the two are as inseparable as fish and water.

Xie Chen rubbed his arms and glared at Howard with a slight complaint, Howard looked at the sky above the arena scoundrelly, ignoring it, the photographer captured this interesting picture, after Xie Chen easily hit the free throw, the previous ridiculous posts on Xie Chen in the mainland NBA bar were slapped in the face one by one, especially the post that was 1.87 meters tall and asked if Xie Chen could be finished, within a minute, it was posted by a thousand netizens, and the thousand replies were exactly the same, all of them were only four words: You think too much!
