I have to admit James's leadership ability, I can't see anything in the regular season, when it comes to the playoffs, the Cavaliers are the most imposing and championship-looking team among all teams, although the Heat also hope to win two games at home, but it doesn't feel very reassuring.

The most critical reason is that between the aces of the two teams, Xie Chen and James are both talented and unstoppable, but James has rich experience in playoff operations, but Xie Chen does not, everyone knows that the playoffs are the world of old balls, and the next game once again verified this.

The Bulls, who are fourth in the East, and the Raptors, who are fifth in the East, have no suspense in the matchup between the two teams from the beginning, the Bulls easily defeated the Raptors and led 2:0 in the series, Xie Chen couldn't help but sigh at the strength of Rose and Gasol, Lowry was really in trouble, and Xie Chen also sent them a stunner in the regular season, but the confidence that has been supported until the playoffs seems to have been beaten by Rose.

Wade gave Xie Chen a look: "If we advance, the next opponent will probably be the Chicago Bulls." ”

Xie Chen also nodded, turning the tables at a 2-0 disadvantage really doesn't look like something this Raptors team can do.

Later in the day, the last game of the day was the Rockets vs. the Mavericks, this time Harden played well again, leading the team to two home wins over the Mavericks and a 2-0 lead in the series.

The first round of this year's playoffs seems to be relatively straightforward, and since so many teams are leading their opponents 2-0, the Heat, as the first in the East, cannot be polite to the Pacers, who are barely entering the playoffs, and must strive for a home win.

The next day, the American Airlines Arena, the Heat and Pacers welcomed Game 2 of the series under a sea of white on the spot.

Before the game, the coaches of both sides cheered for their players, especially Coach Spo, who was particularly excited after winning the coveted best manager, and the fans at the scene were also excited, they were all wondering, will Wade still be in the same state as he was last night?

In fact, Xie Chen is not worried about Wade's performance tonight, even if he no longer scores as much as he scored 40 points in the last game, even if it is only 20 points, Xie Chen also knows that Wade is definitely back.

The Pacers players seem to be in high spirits tonight, they are desperate to win on the road, no one wants to go back with a score of 0:2, the Pacers once led the Heat in the last game, so they are all full of confidence, especially George Hill, who scored 24 points in the last game.

As a player who entered the NBA in 2008, Hill is also an old man, he has not paid much attention, in fact, he has a high basketball IQ, has a very good scoring ability, he played SG in college, due to the size of the NBA Hill to PG, so his ball control ability and ability to control the game are not too outstanding.

It is worth mentioning that this guy's arm span is very exaggerated, his arm span is 18 cm longer than his height, so, in the counterpoint, although Hill is slightly shorter than Xie Chen, his arm span can help him interfere with Xie Chen's three-point shooting well.

Hill pulled two long arms that seemed to be installed, looked at this not unfamiliar arena, and secretly said in his heart: "I scored 24 points in the last game, if I can score more points in this game, I may be able to help the team win a victory, yes, the playoffs are the moment when the wonder soldier emerges, and I am the wonder soldier!" ”

Soon the game officially started, the Heat team jumped the ball, or Xie Chen and Wade took turns to control the ball, Xie Chen held the ball, thinking that the Cavaliers, Warriors, Rockets, and Bulls were already leading the opponent 2-0, and he couldn't help but be a little anxious to win this game, not only to win, but also to play the state of the regular season in the past, otherwise Harden, this kid must have a text message to show off.

Harden scored 37 points last night, considering that Wade is unlikely to score another 40+ in the second game, Harden is very likely to temporarily become the scoring champion in the playoffs, so Harden and Xie Chen showed off and stimulated.

Now Xie Chen has completely possessed Wei Shao's breakthrough ability, that is to say, in the face of George Hill, who is slightly slow in front of him, Xie Chen is definitely an acceleration.

"Whew...... Forget it, let's use Kyle Lowry's. Although his heart was itchy, Xie Chen still chose to use Lowry's breakthrough skills to attack, and the ace skills should be left to deal with the real ace!

Two breakthroughs in a row, George Hill lost his position for the second time, allowing Xie Chen to easily break through, just when Xie Chen was about to speed up again to impact the basket, he didn't expect George Hill to pull Xie Chen's arm behind him, the action was quite rough, and the referee immediately blew Hill for a foul.

Xie Chen gently rubbed his arm and glared at George Hill, but Hill was completely scoundrel-like eyes, and David West on the side also looked disdainful, as if he was telling Xie Chen, fighting with us is to bear this!

Unexpectedly, Xie Chen was fouled by the opponent as soon as he came up, but a simple action grabbed Xie Chen's arm hurt, and when he thought of facing David West's attack next, Xie Chen's heart had to be confused, and the Pacer wanted to use this method to affect Xie Chen's feelings.

Once Xie Chen is affected, in the case of the Heat without Bosh, it is impossible to win with Wade alone.

"I'd rather put a little effort into dealing with this first-year than Dwyanwade, even though it's a bit too much to look up to." Coach Frank said silently in his heart.

The Heat missed the first offense, it was the Pacers' turn to attack, several transmissions, and the ball finally returned to George Hill's hands, Hill received the ball and was stunned for a moment, seemingly looking for a teammate, but suddenly an accelerated breakthrough, Xie Chen was caught off guard, after Hill broke through the restricted area, when he made a layup on the right side, he went a little in the direction of Hibbert on the left, so that Hassan thought Hill was going to pass the ball, and he didn't jump up and block it decisively at the first time, and finally was picked up by Hill for a basket.

The Pacers scored the first goal first.

"Damn it!" Xie Chen was very angry, he let the opposing Hill score a lot of points in the last game, and this time he vowed to restrain the other party, but he didn't expect him to succeed as soon as he started.

Hill was very excited after scoring, and shouted at Xie Chen: "You can't stop me from scoring at all, rookie, but I can stop you." ”

Xie Chen was a little speechless, this guy Hill didn't talk a word of trash in the last game, and after a fight, he even made him play with self-confidence? He provoked himself as soon as he opened the scene?

Xie Chen replied with a smile: "Are you sure you are talking to the season scoring champion?" ”

Hill was also a little speechless after hearing this, after all, the title of scoring champion is still very deterrent, so he snorted coldly and walked away.

However, the entanglement between Hill and Xie Chen was far from over, Xie Chen saw that Hill cared more about his breakthrough, and he was a certain distance away from himself, so he thought of a surprise and directly pulled it up and shot a three-point shot, but unfortunately he failed to hit, which gave the opponent another opportunity to provoke.

"Hey, do you know how high my outstretched arm was when I jumped up? Dare to pull it out in front of me, next time I can directly block you! Hill's words grew more and more arrogant.

Xie Chen shook his head and didn't talk back to the other party, but said silently in his heart: "George Hill, if you provoke me, there will definitely be no good results!" In this game, I'm going to completely blow you up at both ends of the offensive and defensive ends, you wait! ”

Sure enough, George Hill also realized that Xie Chen's defense was even harder, and several breakthroughs failed to succeed, Xie Chen himself had Wei Shao's defensive ability, and it was not easy for Hill to use speed and talent to get rid of Xie Chen, but with the help of blocking and dismantling, he still passed through the defense line and ran to the basket again!

"This time I must cover you!" Xie Chen rushed forward quickly from behind, ready to come to a chasing hat, and Hassan Whiteside under the basket actually came out to block George Hill, Hill saw that the situation was not good, and did not score a layup like before, but quickly distributed the ball to Hibbert under the basket, Hibbert got up directly after receiving the ball and dunked it.

Letting the Pacers score and letting Hill succeed, Xie Chen was very unhappy, and he told Hassan: "You don't have to come out, hand him over to me, I promise to completely restrain him!" ”

Perhaps, if it weren't for Hassan Whiteside for this goal, Xie Chen might have a big hat for Hill.

The Pacers actually led the Heat again in the opening game, and forced the Heat to call a timeout, which made the Cavaliers who had already left for Boston laugh.

The Heat will be watching the Cavaliers play, and the Cavaliers will definitely be watching the other opponents in the East, and now, they are all in the hotel room to watch the second series between the Heat and the Pacers.

Irving smiled: "I didn't expect the Pacers to be so tenacious, the first two games made the Heat so difficult to play, if this D-WADE is not as brave as the last game, and Xie still can't show the state of the regular season, the Pacers are likely to steal a win on the road." ”

James chuckled, noncommittal, and Lefu cut his nails, seemingly not paying attention to the Heat's game at all.

Matthew Dellavedova said with a smile: "Even George Hill can make Shea play so badly, and when he meets me and Kelly, he doesn't have the ability to play." ”

The entire Knights Legion all showed a condescending posture, as if they were already champions.

The atmosphere at the American Airlines Arena also became calmer, and Xie Chen knew that if he didn't play again, the confidence of the entire Heat team might be affected.

"I'm going to start with defense, and defense leads offense, I don't need to be afraid of anything, even if they will do something to me, I already have a way to deal with David West, I'm going to break out!"

Defending George Hill again, whether Hill breaks through by himself or through covering, Xie Chen will continue to stick to Hill with extremely fast speed and strong tenacity, making Hill stunned and constantly consuming offensive time until the end.

George Hill was a little out of breath: "This guy's defense is really exaggerated, I learned it in the regular season, he is fast, very stamina, tireless, and there will be no slackness from start to finish." ”

Hill couldn't break through Xie Chen's defense, and was stuck by Xie Chen, seeing that the offensive time was almost up, and the other teammates were pestered by other defenders and had no chance, so Hill was ready to use his jump shot to complete the attack in the last time.

Xie Chen also knew that Hill only had one way to shoot.

In the final three seconds, Hill took a step back and made a shooting pose.

Xie Chen had already guessed that Hill would shoot, so he immediately stepped forward, and wanted to pounce on it and block it directly, but after thinking about it, if it was him, what would he do? Will you shoot like this?

Xie Chen felt that Hill was also an old man, and although his words were very arrogant, in fact, he was not very confident in his scoring ability, especially in the middle and long-distance shooting under this kind of action.

Xie Chen posted it, but he didn't jump, he just raised his right arm high to interfere, if Hill really shot like this, he would admit it, anyway, the rebound is protected by Hassan and Haslem, there should be no problem.

However, Hill really wanted to cheat Xie Chen's foul, and did not make a move, seeing that Xie Chen did not jump, Hill panicked for a while.

"Don't want to foul? I can't help you! ”

Hill is going to have to make this foul! Seeing that Xie Chen was so close to him, he jumped up and leaned on Xie Chen, Xie Chen retreated suddenly, and Hill looked for physical contact in the air, but he didn't find it! The referee was standing to the right of the two, so he could see it clearly and didn't blow the whistle.

Then, after Hill didn't find physical contact in the air, he made a shot in a panic, and the shot was completely deformed, it was not a standard shooting posture at all, it was a bit like pushing forward to shoot, but at this time, Xie Chen suddenly jumped, stretched out his left hand and slapped the basketball out!

Xie Chen jumped very timely, successfully intercepted Hill's shot with his left hand, and finally blocked Hill!

This is definitely a long-awaited cap, but even Xie Chen himself didn't expect that a crisp sound would be followed by another crisp sound!

I saw that Xie Chen's ball slapped directly on George Hill's head! The basketball slammed into Hill's head and bounced to the frontcourt.

There was an exclamation at the scene, never expected such a funny situation, Xie Chen ignored Hill's screams, and ran directly to the front court to pick up the ball, and then, picking up the basketball, facing the empty basket, staged the long-awaited Zach LaVine-style dunk that everyone had been waiting for!

The atmosphere was instantly ignited! Dare to play fancy dunk in the playoffs, besides Xie Chen, how many can there be in the league?

At this moment, the knights in the Boston hotel were also silent, and James smiled and said, "Put the basketball on your opponent's head...... It's pretty rare. ”

Irving shrugged: "George's head gave Xie an assist, I didn't expect to encounter this kind of dunk opportunity in the playoffs, he will still perform, it seems that his dunking ability is indeed very strong, at least the success rate is very high." ”

Seeing that the two bosses of the team praised Xie Chen, Dellavedova said disdainfully: "This can only show that he loves the same as Stephen Curry, and being able to dunk doesn't mean that he can win the game, look at his next table!" ”R1152
