Chapter 290: Breaking Miller's Record!

Legendary shooter Reggie Miller made 58 three-pointers in the 2000 playoffs, a record that was nearly broken by Ray Allen in 2001, who made 57 in the playoffs that year.

This year's playoffs are an unusual year, as early as the playoffs have not yet begun, people have predicted that this record that has been held for more than ten years will be broken, the reason is very simple, this year's playoffs have two three-point sharpshooters comparable to Reggie Miller and Ray Allen, one is Xie Chen, the other is Curry, another important reason, and the premise of breaking this record, is that both of them are the core of the team, and the teams of the two belong to the first place in the east and west, that is to say, the two teams can go a long way, The longer you get, the better your chances of breaking this record.

After two series, Curry is far ahead of the three-point list in the playoffs, and has made 57 shots, the same as Ray Allen, while Xie Chen is in second place, but it is much less than Curry, with only 52 shots, and now after three shots in this game, it has reached 55, which is only one step away from breaking Miller's record.

However, even if it was Xie Chen who broke the record first, people still felt that Curry was a little more powerful, because Xie Chen only played the third game a day earlier than Curry, and it was more likely Curry to set this year's playoff three-point record.

Some fans said that Xie Chen was the first to break Miller's record, and some people immediately disdained it: "The one who wins first is not called winning!" He just played a day earlier! This year's three-point record certainly belongs to Stephen Curry! ”

Xie Chen didn't think about breaking this record earlier than Curry, it didn't make sense, unless he gave a fusion point, but, according to the urine of the system, in general. After getting the end of the entire playoffs and the number of three-point goals in the playoffs, he went to give a reward, Xie Chen threw three points so wildly, just because he needed to score quickly.

Xie Chen scored 13 points in the first quarter, 41 points short of Iverson's 54 points. Judging from the current trend, 54 points in the fourth quarter should not be too difficult.

The Heat's offensive routine has not changed much, and the scoring still depends on Xie Chen and Wade, and the Cavaliers already know that these two people can't beat them, so they don't panic even if they fall behind.

Recently, the Cavaliers have implemented a large number of tactics, starting with "IversonCut", which integrates elements such as horn offense, with many changes.

The name of IversonCut is, of course, derived from the familiar AI Iverson. The 76ers often used this tactic to help Iverson catch the ball, and the Iverson Cut usually happened on the line, which can be one screen or two screens, Iverson can use this action to take the ball on the wing side for a single shot, or run two arcs to attack the basket directly.

Tristan Thompson and Mozgov stood on the left and right sides of the high post, with Irving holding the ball at the top of the arc and James running off the ball. If it weren't for the Heat's interior line shrinking too tightly, the two interior lines of the Cavaliers would be completely released. Irving casually threw it to the basket, relying on James' ability to get rid of it, and directly made an empty dunk, and finally, through Thompson's hand, the ball was transferred to James. James was already in a good position, easily back-to-back singles, and hit without waiting for the defender to pinch him.

Interestingly, James has also scored more than 10 points. It seems that this game may turn into a scoring battle between Xie Chen and James!

However, James was not interested in scoring against Xie Chen, he only scored to ensure this victory.

Xie Chen was very excited in the first quarter, and it was still the same in the second quarter, with the help of the cover straight into the inside, facing Mozgov to force a layup, and finally made a foul on Mozgov, but unfortunately the ball did not hit.

However, Mozgov has already committed two fouls, and according to Xie Chen's style of play, it is very easy to let Mozgov receive a third foul in the second quarter, Mozgov should be careful, but the more careful, the more conceded, the easier it will be for Xie Chen to score.

easily got the 15th point, Xie Chen on the defensive end is still working hard, Owen can pass the ball, but if you want to single Xie Chen, don't even think about it, Xie Chen's defense is very fierce, and today is different from before, Xie Chen keeps reaching out to harass Owen, and wants to steal from time to time, making Owen dribble more cautious.

Paul's stealing ability is good, but it is definitely not easy to make a successful steal from the hands of "master ball control" Irving, unless Irving plays with it himself and makes a mistake.

Here LeBron also scored two more points, Xie Chen didn't care, as long as the score was the Heat leading, Xie Chen would score crazy by himself, if he fell behind, he would choose the safest way.

By the time Xie Chen scored the 17th point of the game in the second quarter, Owen was completely furious. He felt that Xie Chen simply didn't take himself seriously! So crazy to fire at yourself!

"Owen is going to be blown up! How many points is this guy going to take from Owen's head! ”

Even the fans at the scene could see that Xie Chen was giving and giving what he wanted on Owen's head, and he could score as much as he wanted, Owen was also Xie Chen's senior, and he was also an All-Star player who won the AMVP earlier than Xie Chen! How can you endure such an insult!

But in the case that the strength cannot be changed, those who are stubborn will only make themselves more embarrassed.

"Boy, did you take the wrong medicine today? Have you forgotten that you're a point guard? Can you win the ball if you play so alone? Owen began to verbally attack Xie Chen.

Xie Chen didn't say anything, got the ball again, and pointed the gun at Owen again!

Owen tensed his nerves this time, he will defend this ball with 100% energy! Xie Chen will never be allowed to be so crazy in front of him again!

Xie Chen found that it was not easy to get rid of Owen this time, but he did not panic, but suddenly started dribbling, constantly shaking his crotch, constantly shaking his shoulders, Xie Chen's center of gravity was pressed very low, suddenly, after a crotch, Xie Chen directly turned around in the opposite direction and quickly passed Owen, and broke through to the basket again, while Owen was stunned by Xie Chen, completely unaware that Xie Chen had left!

“oh! What a beautiful move! This is Owen's forte, turning the gyro in the opposite direction! How many star skills does this kid know! ”

The fans of the Quick Loan Arena were simply stunned that someone actually used Owen's extraordinary moves to pass Owen! And the speed of the reverse turn looks even faster than Owen! It's so wicked! Then, Xie Chen used James's layup skills again and leaned on Mozgov, which was another foul. And then when he was about to land, he threw it into the sky casually, and he actually entered!

2+1!

"Oh my God......" The fans at the scene were stunned one by one, he was really the most talented and amazing player in the league, and he was really a powerful opponent!

19 points! If he hit this ball again, Xie Chen scored 20 points!

Xie Chen before walking to the free throw line. walked up to Owen first, and said with a smile: "Come on, you almost stopped me." ”

Owen was extremely embarrassed, he was actually beaten by someone with his own moves, Owen knew that Xie Chen dribbled well, but it was still inferior to himself, but the series of getting rid of it just now was really coherent and beautiful, especially the reverse turn, which was extremely fast. Seems to be faster than yourself!

This is Wei Shao's ability!

Wei Shao's breakthrough is rarely as fancy as Owen, but when the ability comes to Xie Chen, Xie Chen can use it as he wants, and develop it as he wants, combining a simple and rough ability with a gorgeous style of play is also a wonderful use.

Fortunately, Xie Chen has trained hard since he was a child, and his dribbling is also outstanding. The difference is only strength and speed, which is exactly what Wei Shao's skills can make up for.

James couldn't help but be amazed when he saw Xie Chen's superiority just now. He's always admired defenders with a flamboyant style of play, something a big-sized player like James can't do.

Hit a free throw steadily, and easily get 20 points.

"There are still 34 points left......" Xie Chen said secretly.

As the shooting percentage declined, as the Cavaliers fought back, the Heat score went from leading to falling. Xie Chen also changed his style of play, no longer insisting on going his own way, but first passing the ball to his teammates and letting his teammates try to attack the basket, but there was really no chance to pass it back to Xie Chen and let Xie Chen play. It is worth mentioning. Even though Xie Chen has been scoring like crazy, Wade's score is not low, and he feels very good.

As the Heat gradually overtook the score again at the end of the period, Xie Chen took the ball again and attacked by himself, facing Dellavedova who had been replaced by the defender in front of him, and hit a direct jump shot.

hit two three-pointers in a row, Xie Chen scored 26 points, Dellavedova couldn't prevent Xie Chen's three-point shot, and he was also very angry, and sprayed trash talk at Xie Chen: "You are destined to lose, don't do useless struggles anymore, if you don't believe it, let's make a bet, you can win this series, Lao Tzu retires!" ”

Xie Chen replied unceremoniously to the other party: "You should have gotten out a long time ago." ”

Now Xie Chen's playoff three-point goals have also reached 57, the same as Curry and Ray Allen, and there are still two full quarters to go, and everyone knows that the moment to set a new record is coming.

Curry was also paying attention to this game at this time, and Curry was not too angry about Xie Chen's first record, but he was a little unhappy: "Hmph, the average three points per game is far behind me, and it only reached 57 in the third game and the second quarter, and I did it in the second game!" The final record setter has to be me Stephen Curry, there's no doubt about it, I'm going to hit 100 shots this year! And you, hehe, once you can't make it to the finals, you may not even be able to do 70! ”

There is a very important premise in the battle between Curry and Xie Chen's playoff three-point goal record, that is, the finals, either they enter or they don't, so that there can be competition, once a team can't enter the finals, such as the Heat, then Curry is the record setter this year.

After halftime, the Cavaliers who returned to the locker room were a little unhappy, especially Irving, Dellavedova and JR Smith, JR Smith was the first to be angry: "It was so cheap to let that kid score 26 points in the first half, he wants to break Reggie Miller's three-point record on our court!" We should stop him! ”

James smiled: "Now he's two three-pointers short, and there's still half a quarter to go, how can you stop it?" How about you defend him? ”

JR Smith was also silent, indeed, two three-pointers in two quarters were too easy for Xie Chen, even if you defended hard, it was impossible to prevent the opponent.

James looked around at everyone and said with a stern face: "Let's not care how many points Xie will score tonight, how many three-pointers he will shoot, and whose record he will break, it doesn't matter, there is only one thing that matters, victory or defeat!" Originally, I thought that the Heat, who were 0-2 behind, would lead us by a big score in this game, but the Heat didn't do it, this is our chance, once we seize the opportunity and make the score 3:0, then we can basically lock the Finals seat. Leading you to the finals is my commitment to you and to the city. ”

James has never forgotten the significance of returning to the city, especially in an important game like today, in the third quarter, the first two games were already very long, and he used that kind of consumable style of play, and he scored crazy points as soon as he came on the court in the third quarter, which simply brought his personal ability to the extreme!

If you don't let me burst out, I'll shoot outside, and if you don't even let me shoot, I'll play high difficulty! Beasley can't help it at all!

James used a lot of quick turnaround and step-back jumpers after receiving the ball in this quarter, and it was really not easy for him to do such a large shooting action with such a large weight, and what is commendable is that his shooting percentage was extremely high, and soon, he led the score again.

However, no matter how hard James fights, no matter how good he is, this section is destined to belong to Xie Chen!

The player defending Xie Chen was replaced by JR Smith, and this guy would say a lot of boring things to Xie Chen whenever he had free time, trying to disturb Xie Chen's feelings.

Finally, when JR Smith talked about Green Arrow, Xie Chen couldn't help it: "Give up, JR, you can't affect me, I'm destined to break Reggie Miller's three-point record, and I can tell you for sure, in this section, it's on your head." ”

"What......" JR Smith was furious, he was so arrogant that he could, okay, you just try to shoot three points in front of me, Lao Tzu's height of nearly two meters can't kill you!

Wait, Xie Chen, this guy loves to capture the whole thing, saying that he wants to shoot three points, and often the next second is a breakthrough, JR Smith has become more cautious and cares more about Xie Chen's breakthrough.

However, this time, Xie Chen really didn't lie to him, JR let Xie Chen take a step forward, and Xie Chen directly jumped and shot a three-point shot!

The 58th! Xie Chen surpassed Ray Allen, surpassed Curry, and was on par with Reggie Miller!

Thirty-five seconds later, Xie Chen accelerated and changed direction, shook JR Smith hard, and then shot a three-pointer again when James ran over to block it!

It's still a high arc, it's still a precise hollow net, the 59th!

Xie Chen broke the 15-year-old record of three points in the playoffs! (To be continued......)
