The Magic didn't seem to be looking in the right direction since Howard left. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info

This summer, the team's most scrappy player, the team's offensive and defensive stalwart Oladipo, left, Brandon Jennings left for the New York Knicks, along with Nicholson and Ilyasova.

They got Ibaka, Biyombo, DJ Augustine, Jeff Green, and after this operation, it seems that the Magic team is not getting better than last season, and it is still unknown whether they can make the playoffs this season.

Coming to Los Angeles to challenge the team with the No. 1 record in the West made Vogel feel a lot of pressure, let alone be threatened by Xie Chen.

On the night of the game, Xie Chen has been acting very seriously since he entered the arena, in fact, he was in a very good mood tonight, and he made such a serious expression for the opponent.

When warming up before the game, Xie Chen pretended to accidentally lose the ball, walked to Coach Vogel to pick up the ball, and said hello by the way.

"Long time no see." Xie Chen said calmly.

Vogel was glad that the league's No. 1 player could remember him, and quickly smiled: "It's been a long time, we have changed identities when we meet again." ”

Xie Chen still maintained a very serious appearance, and said: "Yes, you just took charge of this team, so you may not know much about the hatred between me and your magic, I have been waiting to fight you for a long time, although I will not fight with you again tonight, but I will be crazy to score points on your heads, I will score 100 points tonight!" ”

"What? 100 more points?! Vogel's smiling face immediately dimmed, and he saw that Xie Chen seemed to be very serious and murderous tonight!

Although Vogel did not coach the Magic team last season, Xie Chen played such a vigorous group fight, and no one in the league knows! When they met again, Xie Chen was still angry, how could this be good!

Coach Vogel began to panic, he remembered that the conflict last season was caused by Xie Chen and Oladipo, and now Oladipo has been traded to the Thunder, it stands to reason that Xie Chen should not have so much hatred for the Magic team......

Vogel inadvertently glanced at his player Elfried Payton, Payton looked at Xie Chen's eyes were still very unconvincing and unconvinced, Vogel suddenly remembered that in that fight, Payton also shot!

Even if Oladipo leaves the Magic, there are still Xie Chen's enemies in the Magic team, and last time, it was a group fight! Although it was a group of people who were beaten by Xie Chen.

"Damn, why didn't I do my homework on this! Xie will definitely perform very differently tonight against an opponent who fought last season! He didn't scare me with another 100 points! Coach Vogel touched his belly, which was getting bigger and bigger, and began to feel melancholy, he really didn't think about this matter in advance, and now that the game is about to come, he can't think of any good countermeasures, so he can only take one step at a time.

After the game began, Xie Chen really behaved very fiercely as soon as he came up, breaking through the inside line and dunking violently, and the opponent was *** again and again, and he played a wave of 8:0 as soon as he came up, and the Magic team quickly called a timeout.

Some netizens saw this and praised the Magic coach: "You look at the coach of other people's Magic, when you see that the momentum is not good, you immediately call a timeout, unlike the coach of the Trail Blazers, who was indifferent to being disabled by the Lakers, I am optimistic that the Magic can counterattack and reverse!" ”

Coming to the dugout, the Magic players felt ashamed that they hadn't gotten into the groove yet.

Coach Vogel faced Ibaka and was about to speak, but Ibaka himself first admitted his mistake: "Sorry, coach, I was a little inattentive just now, let Xie come in and deduct two, next time I will do my best to stop him, no matter what method is used, I will not let him score under the basket so easily!" ”

Ibaka is a tough guy, how many tough battles have he fought in the West with the Thunder Ershao? So I wasn't too scared to face Xie Chen.

However, Coach Vogel said: "No, Sergi, don't act too aggressively towards Xie, you will only annoy him and make things worse, I want to tell you that you are facing the team with the best record in the league tonight, although in the eyes of many people, the Lakers are not the strongest team, but they can keep the first place in the West for so long, and after falling to the second place, they can surpass the Warriors, which has proved that their strength belongs to the level of the super first team, and we are not a team at the same level, Even if we lose to them, it's a normal thing, we should focus on those opponents who have a similar record as us, and fight them to the end, but in the face of such strong opponents, we must know how to protect ourselves and stay healthy is the most important thing. ”

After Vogel finished speaking, the whole team was stupid, what is the situation? praising the Lakers so much, and saying that it's okay to lose to them, is this tolerating them losing?

"Coach, I haven't heard you admit that the Lakers are a strong team before......" Aaron Gordon, a member of the Magic team, whispered.

These guys don't understand Vogel's good intentions, entering garbage time early can prevent Xie Chen from scoring 100 points, you idiots!

Coach Vogel glared at Aaron Gordon and said to the other party: "And you, I know that you will show off your dunk as soon as you find an opportunity in the last few games, don't show it in front of Xie, it will only annoy him, I really want to compare with him, go to the dunk contest!" ”

Aaron Gordon was originally looking forward to tonight's game, because Xie Chen is a slam dunk master he admires very much, and he himself is keen on dunking, so he wanted to show off in front of Xie Chen, but the coach didn't let him do it.

The timeout time came quickly, and Coach Vogel didn't say anything useful, and finally only said to the five main players: "You must pay attention to protect yourself on the field, health is the most important thing!" ”

The five people walked back to the field in embarrassment, didn't dare to look back, is this the coach or the parents, the coach shouldn't let the players go crazy on the field, what are you afraid of bloodshed and tears, Vogel is obviously not letting the players fight too fiercely.

Magic newcomer Ibaka glanced at Xie Chen very depressedly, and wondered in his heart: "What kind of method did this guy use to make Coach Vogel so afraid of him?" ”

After the pause, everyone thought that the Magic team should have adjusted their state and slowly chased back the lost points, but no, the point difference was still expanding, and it was expanding again, and Magic coach Vogel did not call a timeout again.

Wharton saw that this game was so easy, and he also replaced Xie Chen early.

After Xie Chen got off the field, he chatted with his teammates in the player box, he didn't need to pay attention to the game, because they won the game.

"It's rare to be so easy, I knew that everyone was so afraid of me, so I would have used this trick a long time ago!" Xie Chen sat on the bench and watched the game relaxedly.

Waiting for the second quarter to play again, Xie Chen continued to pretend to be fierce, but in fact, Xie Chen no longer had the fighting spirit to play, at this time, it happened that there was a problem with the timer, and Aaron Gordon of the Magic team found Xie Chen, and suddenly opened his mouth to Xie Chen: "Xie, remember me?" We are in the same class. ”

Xie Chen looked at Gordon who was smiling beside him, and nodded, Xie Chen naturally remembered this player who was drafted in the same year, but after all, the two were far apart, and Xie Chen didn't pay much attention to this guy at all.

Xie Chen just joked: "Did you participate in the group beating last time?" ”

Aaron Gordon hurriedly denied it, and then suddenly asked, "Xie, will you still participate in the All-Star Slam Dunk Contest this year?" ”

Xie Chen nodded, and Aaron Gordon continued: "What about LeBron James and Russell Westbrook? ”

"The two of them won't be attending anymore, why are you asking this question?" Xie Chen wondered.

Aaron Gordon then told the truth: "Actually, I was going to sign up for the All-Star Slam Dunk Contest last year, but because LeBron James and Russell Westbrook participated, my spot was squeezed out, and I would love to compare you and Zach LaVine again, hoping to have this opportunity this year." ”

Although Aaron Gordon and Xie Chen are players drafted in the same year, Gordon behaves like a junior in front of Xie Chen, because Gordon is two meters and six meters tall, so he has been bending down to talk to Xie Chen, facing the two-time champion player, maybe this is unconsciously respectful.

Xie Chen also felt very sorry after hearing this, because there would have been no James and Wei Shao in the All-Star Slam Dunk Contest last year, these two guys have been in the league for so many years, and if they want to participate early, no one would have thought that they would participate in it last year, and the reason why they participated was because of Xie Chen, Wei Shao was forced to go after Xie Chen lost the bet, and it was precisely because of Xie Chen that Aaron Gordon did not qualify for the Slam Dunk Contest.

Xie Chen said apologetically: "I'm sorry, I didn't know that you also wanted to participate in the slam dunk contest last year, otherwise I wouldn't force Russell to participate, he didn't have much interest and ambition, I won't invite any big stars this year, you can definitely participate in this slam dunk contest, and I look forward to playing against you." ”

"Really? That's great, thank you so much! Aaron Gordon smiled shyly, and Xie Chen also liked this big boy.

However, this guy who looks harmless and laughs brightly, but he has a hidden brutal dunk skill, because Gordon has never completely demonstrated his dunk ability in the game and in private, so Xie Chen has no idea what level Gordon's dunk ability is.

Gordon looked at Xie Chen's back and secretly rejoiced: "Xie, you are not the only player in this league who knows how to hide the ability, wait and see in the slam dunk contest, I will definitely make you scared!" ”

This game entered garbage time in the fourth quarter, and there was no suspense in the game, the Lakers suppressed the opponent from the beginning, and the Magic team did not succeed in counterattacking from beginning to end, or there was no momentum to counterattack at all.

The fans who paid for tickets to watch the game were also drowsy, but they didn't expect the Magic team to be so unbearable.

The atmosphere in the Lakers team is getting better and better, everyone is laughing and playing on the court, and when they get to the court, they are full of confidence and energy, and the team is becoming more and more like the Warriors who won 73 wins last season.

Many experts also posted: "Another game in which the third quarter and the fourth quarter became garbage time, which can't help but remind people of the Golden State Warriors last season, has the Lakers grown to a team of the Warriors' level?" ”

Xie Chen likes this kind of game of clocking in and out of work in three quarters very much, the regular season is very long, it is not easy to have a rest, and it can also show the domineering of the team, so in the next game, playing Jazz away, Xie Chen still has to continue to threaten the other party with words and win without a fight!

……

In the offseason, some teams have gained attention in a noisy and eye-catching way, while others have quietly strengthened their teams.

In the three-way trade of the Hawks, Jazz and Pacers, George Hill was traded to the Jazz, which belongs to the Jazz's positional needs, and under the team's mental needs, Jazz general manager Dennis Lindsay planned an unnoticed signing, singled Jojo Johnson, and then used salary space to bring the skilled big man Dior to Salt Lake City.

George Hill's arrival had an immediate effect on the Jazz, and in today's point guard event, his stats are not remarkable, but his help to the team is an absolute All-Star level.

Speaking of which, George Hill's fate is also related to a trade that year, in the 2011 draft, the Pacers selected Leonard with the No. 15 pick, but the Pacers traded him for the Spurs' backup point guard George Hill.

George Hill and Leonard swapped owners, and many netizens angrily exclaimed, "Actually send Hill away, Spurs are waiting for the end!" "Actually swapping a point guard who has proven himself for a No. 15 pick who is good at defending and lacking offensive means? ”。

However, at that time, the Pacers lacked a point guard, so it was a win-win deal at the time, if Leonard stayed with the Pacers and Hill stayed with the Spurs, maybe Hill would become Parker's successor, although Leonard did not have the championship-level growth environment of the Spurs, but it was enough to grow into a generation of star players.

Speaking of George Hill, there is another thing that is impressive, that is, when the Heat beat the Pacers in the 2014 Eastern Conference Finals, the Heat defeated the Pacers 102-90, and after the Pacers' last attack failed, Wade dribbled across the frontcourt, and at that time, all the players of the Pacers left the court, and there was only one Pacers player on the court, which was George Hill.

It just so happened that Wade dribbled for 24 seconds and went back to the table for 0.8 seconds, and Hill was the only Pacer on the court, so Hill gave the ball to Wade, and Wade handed the ball to Hill at 0.4 seconds, and the time was over in the process, and Hill did not touch the ball.

It is precisely because of this move that many fans still like this not-so-famous point guard.

Everyone knew that in that series, the Pacers would definitely lose, but one team didn't have the courage to play the last time, and Hill alone lasted until the last minute.

But it was such a real man who lasted for the team until the last second, a native Indiana, who wouldn't want too much possession and defended desperately, but was traded to the Jazz by Big Bird Bird.

George Hill himself was very unhappy that he was traded.

At the Energy Solutions Arena, the bearded George Hill looked at the strange crowd at the scene, thinking, "This is not my home." (To be continued.) )
