At halftime, Xie Chen's halftime statistics were 40 points, 13 assists, 7 blocks, 6 steals, 5 rebounds, and 4 fouls. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info

Like the previous game, Xie Chen received four fouls in the first half, but unlike the previous game, the Lakers led the Thunder by as many as 20 points at halftime!

Halftime, Thunder locker room.

Oladipo wondered, "What the hell does this guy think?" Contrary to what we expected, he didn't care about foul counts! ”

Before the game, Oladipo and others also praised the coach as a master of psychological warfare, thinking that they would always predict the style of play against Xie Chen in advance, but today's first half was too surprising to them.

Coach Donovan also frowned, "I really don't know why he did this, according to Luke Wharton's idea, he must play cautiously, this is really surprising, but since he is not afraid of six fouls to leave the court, and now he has four fouls, then we will send him down as soon as possible, and after he is off the court, we will slowly solve the rest of the people." ”

Lakers locker room.

Although the team is leading by as many as 20 points, it must have been jubilant before, but today was a little different, everyone was quiet, maybe because they hadn't won a game in the playoffs, maybe because Xie Chen had a bit of a lot of fouls.

Xie Chen looked at everyone and said: "I may be punished in the third quarter, before I leave, I will do my best to widen the difference, and in the last quarter, whether I can hold it or not depends on you." ”

Nick Young, Ingram, and Richard Jefferson all had solemn expressions on their faces, and they felt a lot of pressure, which they had never felt when the team was leading by 20 points.

Richard Jefferson leaned on the closet, a veteran who had been in the NBA for so long, worked with so many stars, and was a great star like LeBron James before, but he knew that playing with James would never be like this.

"Xie, don't worry, after you get off the field, I will definitely ......" Nick Yang is a confident guy, but as soon as he opened his mouth, he was interrupted by Ci Shiping, Ci Shiping said: "What do you say, Xie will not be sent off, we have to help him defend, we have to put pressure on the referee, Xie, you have to be on the field all the time, we will win them forty points tonight!" ”

Xie Chen is a man of temperament, he can say whatever he wants, but after all, he is young, and he is not as good as an old player like Ci Shiping who knows how to take care of the player's mood, at this time, as the leader of the team, it is best not to say this kind of thing that makes the players feel worried, otherwise, at the beginning of the third quarter, these people's emotions will be affected, which is not conducive to the game.

Xie Chen nodded to Ci Shiping, and then said to everyone with a smile: "In the second half, I will take you to win them by forty points!" ”

"Good!" Everyone was in high spirits, although everyone knew that with Xie Chen's style of play, the departure of the six criminals would definitely happen.

Soon, the second half begins!

Hassan Whiteside, who was sitting in the audience, asked Pat Riley: "Will Hsieh leave the court with six fouls in this quarter?" ”

Pat Riley said, "Why are you all concerned about whether he'll leave the field with six fouls?" You should pay more attention to the score, even if he leaves the game with six fouls, but if he maintains the difference above 20 points or even more than 25 points before leaving, then he is successful, and then even if the Lakers do not thank him, it will be difficult for the Thunder to turn the tables. But if Xie Liu's foul leaves the court, the difference is within 20 points, and there is still one quarter to go, it will be very dangerous for the Lakers. ”

Xie Chen thought the same as Riley, if he was destined to be sent off in the third quarter, then when he was sent off, he hoped to expand the difference to more than 25 points, Xie Chen didn't believe that the Lakers could still lose to the Thunder when the Lakers were leading by 25 points, no matter how weak the Lakers were without Xie Chen, they were not weak enough to do this.

Of course, if it's against the Warriors, even if it's 30 points, it's not safe.

After the opening, Wei Shao first hit a two-point shot to narrow the gap to 18 points, and then glanced at Oladipo, their plan was to narrow the difference first, at least to less than 20 points, and then deliberately make Xie Chen's foul.

However, as soon as Wei Shao's side narrowed the gap to within 20 points, Xie Chen immediately used James' ability to make a layup, forced a layup, and pulled the difference back to 20 points again.

Wei Shao was also polite, and made a match with Adams, assisting Adams to dunk and narrow it down to 18 points again.

Xie Chen was more crisp and neat than Wei Shao, after Adams successfully dunked, Xie Chen rushed over to get the ball as soon as possible, and then went to the throw-in himself, and a long pass was passed to Nick Young, who ran to the frontcourt, and pulled back 20 points again.

Coach Donovan shook his head, it's not a way to keep going like this, you still have to get Xie Chen down first, as long as you get Xie Chen off the field early, you can admit it if the score difference is bigger!

continued Oladipo singled Xie Chen, but this time he played a cover, and finally let Xie Chen face Adams, who provoked Xie Chen after receiving the ball: "You can't cover me at all, little man." ”

Adams made a shooting move near the three-point line, he wanted to trick Xie Chen into fouling, but Xie Chen didn't even stretch out his hand at all, and went directly to grab the rebound, and he was really grabbed by him, and then another assist was awarded.

"I don't need to cover you, because you can't get in." Xie Chen smiled at Adams.

Adams is embarrassed, if he has the ability to project a threat like a big man like Nowitzki, I believe he will be able to cause Xie Chen a lot of fouls.

The fifth foul of the "highly anticipated" Xie Chen still came, it was still Adams, when Xie Chen hit the basket, Adams stood under the basket, and as soon as there was physical contact, he immediately made a gesture of being knocked to the ground.

After the referee blew the whistle, Luke Wharton ran to the referee excitedly, and he thought that Adams was not on his feet, and there was movement under his feet, and he could not blow Xie Chen's offensive foul.

At the same time, Coach Donovan also stepped forward excitedly and told the referee that it was an offensive foul!

Luke Wharton was anxious, his only ace player had five fouls that made him very insecure, and when he saw Coach Donovan coming over to say these words, he turned his anger on him, pushed Coach Donovan, and scolded: "Shameless guy! ”

Coach Donovan was not to be outdone: "Young man, don't think it's great to be the best coach, you're still young, look at how I play you in this series!" ”

The coach actually scolded each other on the field and even wanted to fight?

Before the series, the two also praised each other and said they admired each other......

"Uh......" Pat Riley was stunned when he saw this, it was something he had never seen before.

As soon as the coach has a war of words, then all the players must come up to help, and for a while, Ci Shiping, Nick Young and others stand up for Luke Wharton, and Kante, Wei Shao, and Oladipo on that side, it looks like a group battle is about to be fought.

But fortunately, everyone knew the importance of the playoffs, and they didn't dare to mess around, and they all calmed down quickly, and Xie Chen still got his fifth foul.

One more time, he's going to be sent off again.

"Xie Chen committed five fouls again, and now the Lakers are leading by 22 points, and there are four minutes left in the third quarter, if Xie Chen leaves the court like this, it is not safe." Ke Fan Dao.

"But Coach Luke Wharton hasn't replaced Xie Chen after his fifth foul, I think the meaning is very clear, they just want to use Xie Chen's personal strength to solve the opponent within the time of Xie Chen's six fouls, that is to say, Xie Chen wants to solve the Thunder in the third quarter, and his self-confidence is really unparalleled." Su Qun exclaimed.

"But can the Thunder be solved in three quarters? After Xie Chen got off the court, did the Thunder really chase back? Ke Fan asked.

"Let's see how many points Xie Chen can expand the score difference in the end." Su Qun was also unsure.

At the scene, many Lakers fans were shouting at Coach Wharton: "Why don't you replace Xie off the court!" Don't you want Xie to play the fourth quarter? ”

Coach Donovan also sneered: "Still on the field? Okay, I'll send you away! ”

Even if the Thunder is 22 points behind, every time the Thunder attacks, it must hit Xie Chen.

Oladipo continued to spit trash talk to Xie Chen, as soon as he got the ball, he immediately hit Xie Chen, Xie Chen was also unceremonious, and he was not afraid at all, he made a successful steal again, and the speed was fast, Oladipo chased after him, Xie Chen dragged hard when he was about to go to the basket, trying to provoke Xie Chen, but Xie Chen used LeBron James's ability, and he would not be affected much by Oladipo at all, and finally even under Oladipo's foul, Xie Chen still went up and scored 2+1, expanding the difference to 25 points.

Subsequently, Oladipo didn't dare to play under the basket by himself, but passed it to Wei Shao, who followed up, Wei Shao wanted to dunk violently, Xie Chen was not only fearless in the face of his own defenders, he was not afraid of fouls, even if it was to make up for the defense, he was still not afraid, and jumped up and gave Wei Shao a big hat!

Xie Chen knew very well that the referee would not dare to blow him for a foul at this time, unless it was a particularly obvious foul.

Everyone was waiting for the whistle that appeared on Xie Chen, as if the whistle would decide the fate of the two teams, Xie Chen's fearlessness on the court made these opponents of the Thunder feel terrible, they had never encountered such a crazy athlete.

Xie Chen expanded the difference to 28 points with two minutes left in the third quarter!

"28 points! Oh my God, this is the playoffs, the Thunder didn't lose so much to the Lakers in the regular season, is the Thunder really that much worse than the Lakers? Ke Fan didn't expect the difference between the two teams to be so big.

Su Qun explained: "Obviously not, the Thunder have a problem with today's play, they only think about making Xie Chen's fouls on the offensive end, Xie Chen defends whoever he wants, and hits whoever he wants, but Xie Chen steals and blocks many times, and scores a lot of fast breaks, which is really a bit more than worth the loss, I don't know what Coach Donovan's mood is like now, he may also regret it a little." ”

On the sidelines, Coach Donovan saw the difference of nearly 30 points, his face was sluggish, he still underestimated Xie Chen's ability, he thought that Xie Chen would maintain the score difference at most about 20 points before the six fouls were played, and after Xie Chen got off the court, the Thunder had every chance to catch it up, but he didn't expect it to expand to nearly 30 points......

Backbite!

The referee's sudden whistle shocked the audience, and Xie Chen fouled for the sixth time! Two consecutive games with six fouls to leave the game!

Panting, Xie Chen glanced at the score, leading by 28 points, and with more than a minute left in the third quarter, he felt that he had completed the task and had done his best.

The audience applauded with the warmest applause and sent Xie Chen off!

"Thanks, you don't have to play again, not because of six fouls, but because the fourth quarter is garbage time, you don't have to play!"

"Defeat the Thunder in the third quarter, even if six fouls leave the game?!"

While applauding, Pat Riley also began to get excited, and said to Hassan Whiteside: "The Thunder's game is only officially starting now, let's see if they can catch up in the first quarter." ”

Obviously, the next thing to watch is whether the Thunder can catch up with the 28-point difference in a little more than a quarter after Xie Chen leaves.

Ke Fan and Su Qun also discussed.

"With a 28-point difference, can the Thunder catch up?"

"The Thunder will chase very hard, after all, they don't have as many talented and capable three-point masters as the Warriors, but the key is to see the Lakers, after losing Xie Chen, whether they can withstand the Thunder's counterattack, a whole quarter, once the Thunder rises, the Lakers may still lose."

Xie Chen returned to his seat, his mood was very calm, and then there was nothing to do with him, this was the first time in such a situation, he believed in his teammates.

Wei Shao and the others really became excited immediately after Xie Chen left the game, and in the last minute or so of the third quarter, they chased 6 points in a row, and at the end of the third quarter, the difference was narrowed to 22 points.

On the Internet, fans began to bet on whether the Thunder could turn the game around.

In the fourth quarter, Wei Shao didn't stop for a minute, and he struggled to chase points from the beginning, but after all, the Lakers were the first in the West, where was it so easy to be reversed?

"A 28-point lead was reversed? What kind of third-rate team do you think of the Lakers! ”

"With my Nick Young here, even if you don't have a one-point lead, you can still win you!"

How can the Lakers tolerate this disdain when they feel that the other side is going to reverse their ambitions? If the lead of 28 points is reversed, they will be criticized for nothing!

Whenever Willis narrows the margin to around 15 points, Nick Young or Ingram will step up and score back-to-back points to keep the margin at around 20 points.

Time is getting less and less, and the mood of the Thunder players such as Wei Shao is becoming more and more impatient, the more impatient, the more the shooting percentage will drop, and until the last minute of the game, they still haven't narrowed the difference to single digits.

Wei Shao, Oladipo, and Adams are on the field, extremely desperate, fighting for every ball, desperately attacking, desperately defending, desperately saving.

On the other hand, Xie Chen of the Lakers team, sitting quietly on the court, seeing that the Thunder had fought for a whole quarter and hadn't caught up to single digits in the last minute, Xie Chen finally put his mind at ease, didn't know where to get a bucket of popcorn, sat on the chair and ate it with Erlang's legs crossed......

Wei Shao and Oladipo, who were panting, inadvertently glanced at the Lakers bench, and when they saw Xie Chen, who was eating popcorn, they were so angry that they vomited blood on the spot...... (To be continued.) )
