Chapter 733: Against the 2000 Galactic Fleet!
The atmosphere at the Moda Center was changed by Plumlee's fourth foul, and the Trail Blazers fans were convinced they could win the game, but now there seemed to be a little bit of a bad picture. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info
It's a very intense and difficult battle, and it is likely that the stalemate will not be decided until the end, but Plumlee has already committed four fouls before the second quarter is played, so will he be sent off in the fourth quarter? If he loses him at a critical moment, what will be the impact on the team?
A series of worries silenced the fans.
Many fans on the Internet directly scolded the Trail Blazers coach.
"What a garbage coach! Let Plumlee foul four times so early, and I don't know how to protect it! ”
Plumlee was substituted after four fouls. Without tonight's rebounding maniac, it has become much easier for the Lakers to get rebounds, especially frontcourt rebounds, grabbing one more frontcourt rebound means that Xie Chen can make one more shot, with Xie Chen's stable shooting rate, everyone knows what it means.
Xie Chen was in a relaxed mood, with Coach Stotts so helping, it was not a problem to win this game, and as Xie Chen slowly scored, his personal score quickly exceeded 30 points, opening a legendary plot.
……
This time, the legendary Trailblazers team that Xie Chen met was an opponent that Xie Chen was looking forward to meeting.
Rasheed Wallace, Steve Smith, Scott Pippen, Sabonis...... Hehe, it turns out that tonight's opponent is them. After coming to the legendary plot, Xie Chen looked around and saw some past stars, and he also seemed very happy, he was no stranger to the Trailblazers in this lineup.
This is the trailblazer of the year 2000.
In 2000, the Los Angeles Lakers with the OK combination fought seven games with the Portland Trail Blazers in the Western Conference Finals, and even at the critical moment in the fourth quarter of G7, the Lakers once trailed the Trail Blazers by 15 points, and finally narrowly defeated the Trail Blazers and won the first championship of the OK combination, which was also the beginning of the Lakers dynasty's three consecutive championships.
It can be said that this Trail Blazers team almost ruined the dream of OK three consecutive championships.
It's definitely a tough and respectable opponent, and that series is a classic, and even last year, James said on the Internet that he was looking back at the 2000 Western Conference Finals and commented: "Dude, I really wish I could have played that series in the West at that time, because this is the top basketball game, you don't dare to have any slack on the court, everybody will make you pay, if you don't know the history of basketball, You forget how many great teams haven't won a championship, but that doesn't mean they're not great. ”
Even James has a lot of praise for the Trail Blazers, and it is conceivable that tonight's opponent will be difficult to deal with.
"That guy Lillard is hot tonight, and the other Trail Blazers players are playing well, even if I have a coach to do it, I have to continue to maintain my offensive ability to win, and this time I have to win the Legend Challenge, and I can't lose my ability." Xie Chen said secretly, ready to start a big battle.
This season's Trail Blazers' scoring champion is Rasheed Wallace, but he doesn't average too many points per game, averaging less than 20 per game, but in the playoffs he is the guarantee of the team's victory, and Xie Chen once again saw Wallace's "straight arm shooting".
Straight-arm shooting is a very strange way of shooting, the arm basically does not exert force, relying on the strength of the wrist and fingers to pull the ball out, the advantage of this shooting is that the shooting point will be very high, not easy to block, Wallace itself has a high height and arm length, if the hand is in good condition, the one-on-one defense, really can't prevent him.
Scott Pippen went to the Rockets and then to the Trail Blazers after Jordan retired, and the numbers began to decline year by year, in which he had a chance to win another championship without Jordan, but unfortunately he couldn't stop the OK combination that came out of nowhere.
The name of the person who is more important than Pippen is Steve Smith, and he is tied with Wallace for the most points in the playoffs, in addition, O'Neal Jr. is also on the team at this time, but he has always played as a substitute in the Trail Blazers, averaging more than three points per game in the four years of the Trail Blazers, and was traded to the Pacers to slowly play out.
After playing two quarters, Xie Chen found that this opponent was indeed difficult to deal with, very difficult, but fortunately, there was no superstar in this team, Pippen could be counted as a superstar, but unfortunately in the Trailblazers, he was no longer Batman, playing a team without a superstar, even if the opponent's tactics were exquisite, how seamless the cooperation was, and how the defense was like an iron wall, Xie Chen would never lose, with Xie Chen's ability now, without more than two superstars, he would not be qualified to win Xie Chen.
In the past, when Xie Chen played a legendary team, he would use Curry's three-point ability to scare the opponent into a hurry as soon as the opponent was defenseless, and take the opportunity to take away the game in waves, but today, Xie Chen did not do this, after all, this Trail Blazers team is a team that can fight seven games with the Lakers of the OK combination and almost win the series, this will be a tug-of-war, so Xie Chen plans to hide Curry's ability, wait until the last moment to take it out, and solve the game directly.
However, even if Xie Chen hides Curry's three-point ability, other abilities alone are enough to shock and helpless opponents, especially Michael Jordan's layup ability and Michael Jordan's backward jumper, two magic skills, one SS+, one SS, Pippen knows Jordan's domineering best, and he saw that Xie Chen's scoring method was the same as that of his former teammate Jordan, and he was shocked that he couldn't do it.
Mike Dunleavy, who was the legendary trail blazers coach at the time, has also been observing Xie Chen's technical movements on the sidelines, and he silently analyzed in his heart: "This No. 0 player is very similar to Michael Jordan, with excellent bounce, air, and unsolvable backward shooting, speed and confrontation are also very strong, he didn't shoot many three-pointers, he should be as bad at shooting three-pointers as Jordan, well, just treat him as Michael Jordan at his peak as a defense." ”
Gradually, the game entered the decisive stage of the fourth quarter, and the Lakers led the legendary Trail Blazers by 5 points.
"These guys are still playing so seriously, do they think they can turn the score around? Sorry, there will be no suspense in the game! Xie Chen looked at the time, there were five minutes left in the game, so he was ready to use Curry's anti-heaven three-point at this time, so that they could see for a long time.
The legendary trail blazers have a very short player named Damon Stoudemire, who is less than 1.8 meters tall.
"Let's start with him." Xie Chen glanced at the little man in front of him, and without hesitation, he shot three points, and the ball went into the net.
"Damon is still too short." Coach Dunleavy also thought that Xie Chen could shoot three points, not because of his strong three-point ability, but because he had too little interference.
However, next, no matter who the legendary trailblazers replace to defend Xie Chen, Xie Chen will still score!
"Damn, why is he so powerful at three points all of a sudden! Four goals in a row! The legendary Trail Blazers panicked instantly.
Originally, the difference was only five points, but it didn't take long for the difference to reach double digits, and there is a tendency to continue to expand.
The opponent does not understand Curry's three-point ability, which is Xie Chen's biggest advantage in playing a legendary team.
After that, Xie Chen once again used two ultra-long three-pointers to directly end the game!
……
Come back again, Xie Chen is already very tired, according to his usual habits, he usually just came back from the Legend Challenge, if he feels very tired, he will say hello to the coach first, take a few minutes of rest to ease up, and then restart the game, but this time Xie Chen can't rest, he can't show his tired state, he must always give people, especially Coach Stotts, a momentum that I want to score 100 points and I want to break the record.
Xie Chen is also a little confused now, he doesn't know how much his team scores, anyway, after getting the ball, he will do it, and he will dunk one under the basket, and he will talk about it angrily!
"Terrible Chris Shet!" Stotts was frightened.
Xie Chen led another wave of small highs. tide, but Stotts still didn't care, and slowly, the Lakers began to take the lead.
Lillard was under Xie Chen's marking, and it was difficult for him to continue to break out, and Plumlee appeared again, and it was even more tragic that he got two consecutive fouls in the third quarter, and was honorably sent off in the third quarter.
At the end of the third quarter, the Lakers had a 17-point lead, and the fourth quarter turned into garbage time.
The Warriors and Trail Blazers fans looked confused.
Dream Green couldn't believe his eyes: "This ...... This game, played in the fourth quarter, turned into garbage time! And it's the Lakers who are ahead! ”
Kevin Durant couldn't help but shake his head: "The Trail Blazers had a perfect start, but unfortunately the more they played, Coach Stotts's coaching style tonight was also very weird, Plumlee left the game early, and when the Trail Blazers didn't play as well as they wanted, they didn't adjust in time, but let the opponent continue to fight back until they won." ”
After the Lakers won this game, they will still be the only No. 1 in the West, and the Warriors certainly don't want that to happen.
But at this time, the most depressed is Lillard, he originally thought that tonight he would slash 50+ or even 60+, and then lead the team to beat the Lakers, proving to the world that he is a stronger point guard than Xie Chen, but unfortunately the dream was shattered, and it was not someone else who caused the dream to be shattered, it was their head coach.
"If we can adjust in time at that time, if Mason Plumlee hadn't been troubled by fouls, maybe I'd still be on the court at this time!" Lillard, who sat on the bench during garbage time, was unwilling.
And Xie Chen was happy and relaxed, and said secretly in his heart: "If I hadn't scared Coach Stotts, I guess I would still be working the field, threatening the opponent, this method is good, I can easily win the game without any effort, yes, I should continue to continue......"
Xie Chen, who tasted the sweetness, decided to continue to rely on threatening his opponent to achieve the goal of winning.
Xie Chen asked Wharton, "Coach, who is our next opponent?" ”
Luke Wharton laughed back: "The next game is at home against the Orlando Magic, and there is no Oladipo on that team right now, so you shouldn't fight them again, right?" ”
Xie Chen has an absolute relationship with the Magic team, last season, Xie Chen overturned the entire Magic team by himself, and it was that battle that caused no one to dare to provoke Xie Chen now.
At this time, Ci Shiping said: "Xie, are you still looking at them unpleasantly?" Don't worry, I'll teach them a lesson for you in the next game. ”
Xie Chen smiled and said, "No, in the next game, we will win very easily, and there won't be so many sparks colliding, by the way, coach, the coach of the Magic is the former Indiana Pacers coach Frank Vogel, right?" How do you have a relationship with him, do you know him? What kind of person is he? ”
Luke Wharton was very curious about how Xie Chen became interested in the opponent's coach, he hadn't heard Xie Chen inquire about the opponent's coach before, Wharton paused for a moment, and replied: "Frank is a very charismatic coach, he is very good at communicating with people, and he has playoff experience......"
Xie Chen interrupted Luke Wharton: "I'm not asking how he is coaching, I'm trying to ask how his personality is, is he timid?" ”
"This ......" Luke Wharton was also stunned by the question, how could he ask this kind of question, "Is it cowardly, I don't know very well......"
Xie Chen nodded, trying to recall the picture of dealing with Vogel in the past, and in his impression, Vogel was a white and well-dressed white coach, and he also looked kind, unlike Rivers, who knew at a glance that he was a hard bone, and Xie Chen thought that it should be easier to scare.
Soon, the game was over, and the Lakers continued to hold the first place in the West.
After the end, when Xie Chen said goodbye to his opponent politely, he also deliberately found Stotts to complain: "You know what? I'm so depressed today, I've broken the NBA record in two games in a row, but it stopped coming to you, and I wanted to score 100 points again tonight, but I didn't do it, you stopped it all! ”
After the loss, Coach Stotts felt honored when he heard this! I am very powerful, not only stopped Xie Chen's madness, did not let his team be the background, but also interrupted Xie Chen's record-breaking, which is something that neither the Clippers coach nor the Pacers coach did!
Coach Stotts smiled, "I'm sorry, thank you, it's hard for me to play as you want." ”
Xie Chen didn't know how to thank Stotts, but on the surface, he still had to pretend to be resentful, and said: "Anyway, we will meet again soon, next time, you will definitely not be able to stop me from breaking the record, and you will not be able to stop me from scoring 100 points." ”
When Stotts thought of facing Xie Chen next, he couldn't help but have a big head again, he had already deliberately lost a game, should he continue to lose next?
Two days later, Stotts is not the only one who has this idea, there will be one more Magic coach Vogel! (To be continued.) )
