Xie Chen knew that the Spurs were not an ordinary team, not an opponent who could win by playing whatever he wanted like the Thunder, so he was very cautious in his playing style, playing reasonable basketball as soon as he came up, and patiently organizing the offense like the Spurs, to find the most suitable point.

Popovich smiled, compared to the influence of the superstars in the team, the Spurs can't compare with other teams with superstars, because Popovich won't let his players score too many points, the statistics are too eye-catching, but more than teamwork, more passing, than flowing offensive coordination, Popovich doesn't think he will lose to Luke Walton and these young guys.

Popovich said to Ginobili, who was sitting on the sidelines: "Go out there and tell them what team basketball is. ”

The bald Ginobili tightened his pants and went on the court, the passing ability of this demon knife is not ordinary, there are feints all over the body, and the skill of making fouls has also reached the realm.

Since Xie Chen played reasonable team basketball, Popovich compared team basketball with the Lakers, and then forced Xie Chen to play individual heroism.

Ginobili sent a second pass as soon as he came up, the ball was first transferred to Aldridge in the low post on the right side, Aldridge didn't move the ball, Ginobili suddenly went to the basket without the ball from the left 45-degree angle, Aldridge gave the ball to the past, Ginobili received the ball near the basket, didn't even dribble, and threw a back pass directly to Gasol under the basket, he just glanced at Gasol's defender with his eyes, and instantly made the decision to pass the ball, and the latter dunked with one hand.

"It's really neat, Ginobili passes the ball really fast, ordinary people pass this kind of ball, they have to look at their teammates, and then make a move to pass the ball, but Ginobili glanced at the defender opposite his teammates, got the ball and threw it directly to the back of his head, and the cooperation was done." Yang Yi also admires Ginobili's style of play.

Xie Chen is a person who will try his best to return the color as soon as he sees others showing a better side than himself, his current all-round ability can already deal with anyone, whether it is a dunk or a three-point or a defense, he has a way to deal with it, and what Ginobili shows is not an ability, but a brain, which is a style, like the autumn wind sweeping away the leaves.

Although Xie Chen's personal data this season is so rebellious, he is the scoring champion and the assist king, but in fact, under the guidance of Luke Walton, the Lakers have been doing things like the Warriors to share the ball, and they play team cooperation very well, which is by no means the level of the Toronto Raptors.

The Lakers quickly returned one. Xie Chen slipped around from the left side, came out to catch the ball, after receiving the ball, immediately jumped, the Spurs quickly chased and blocked the block, Xie Chen jumped and passed the ball to Randle's hand under the basket, Randle seemed to attack, but an inside pass was immediately passed to Mozgov, and Mozgov also easily succeeded.

This response from the Lakers also stimulated the Spurs, and soon, the Spurs responded again, Ginobili took the ball outside the three-point line and passed the ball to Mills on the left, Mills received the ball and quickly passed to Aldridge, who quickly attracted the bag as soon as he got close to the basket, and quickly distributed the ball to the left bottom corner, who hit a three-pointer.

"The kind of coordination they play, once they start passing the ball, the ball doesn't hit the ground at all, it's all flying around in the air." Ke Fan Dao.

"Yes, you can say that they threw it, or you can say that they passed it, this is the Spurs, if you cooperate with the team, the Lakers not only can't get into the Spurs, but their defensive awareness is not as good as the Spurs, and they weaken Xie Chen's ability." Yang Yi said.

When Xie Chen gradually passed the ball out, sometimes he would play a subtle match, and his teammates would continue to pass the ball to score, and sometimes his teammates could score directly, but there were also many times when he was killed by the Spurs, or his teammates were not hit.

Spurs, on the other hand, remain efficient.

In order to prevent the Spurs from widening the point difference, Xie Chen had to choose to score by himself.

After scoring strongly with Ginobili's left-handed layup ability, Popovich noticed the change in Xie Chen's playing style, and said secretly: "Want to play by yourself again?" Then I'll force you to pass the ball. ”

Popovich seems to be intent on swaying Xie Chen's style of play and not letting him play well on the court.

Xie Chen saw that his teammates' chances were better, and passed the ball again, most of his teammates created free throws and two-point opportunities, and because of the average free throw shooting rate and no three-point shots, the Lakers' scoring growth was still very slow.

"There are so many good chances, and it's only one point ahead of the Spurs." Xie Chen was not very satisfied with this result.

Popovich just wants Xie Chen to hesitate whether to play or pass the ball every time he attacks, so that after two or three games, Xie Chen's difficult choice will be more serious, such hesitation will greatly reduce Xie Chen's offensive efficiency, once a choice is made at a critical moment, and this choice happens to be missed, Xie Chen will blame himself in his heart, for example, if he misses a single, he will feel that he should pass to his teammates, and if he doesn't score to his teammates, he will be annoyed that he should play by himself just now.

However, today is the first game of the series, and Xie Chen has just won the MVP, Popovich knows that Xie Chen will not be emotionally bad today, and his idea will have to be effective after two or three games.

At the end of the half, Xie Chen did not have too bright individual performances, and was more about playing team cooperation, and because the Spurs' defense was better, the Lakers still fell behind in the half.

Before Xie Chen was about to go back to the locker room at halftime, the on-site reporter came over to interview Xie Chen and asked: "You didn't have a lot of individual points and assists in the first half, we all know how important you are to the team, when will you turn on the MVP mode?" ”

Xie Chen said: "I can't tell you this, but I can tell you another thing, I'm going to use my hidden ability in the second half!" ”

"What? You say you're going to use a new ability you've been hiding for a long time! The reporter just casually asked Xie Chen to summarize the performance in the first half, but he didn't expect to ask such a valuable answer!

The crowd was shocked, and even the entire Spurs team, which was about to walk back to the locker room, stopped.

"What did Xie just say? Will he use his hidden abilities in the second half? Tony Parker asked Aldridge.

Aldridge looked in the direction of Xie Chen's side and said, "I didn't hear it clearly, it seems to be like this." ”

Popovich also looked at this side, but he had a smile on his face, he didn't think that Xie Chen would tell the story of the secret weapon in advance with such fanfare.

"Yes, I've been hiding my ability for three years and it's going to be used in the second half, Spurs are a strong opponent, we can't afford to lose every game, we suffered in the first half, and if I don't show it again, I'm afraid this win will be taken away by them." Xie Chen pretended to be helpless, and he was also modestly feeding poisonous milk to the spurs.

The superstar viewing group on the sidelines was all excited.

"Haha, Xie is finally going to show his hidden ability!" Hassan was thrilled.

"He still has the ability to hide! In the series with us, he has been hiding, we lost to him 1:4, and we are really not qualified to force him to show it, but the first game against the Spurs, before the half, Xie appeared, wouldn't it be too early? Wei Shao was also very excited, but instead of being excited, he felt a little embarrassed, because in the last round of the series, they had no ability to force out Xie Chen's hidden ability.

James Harden, who lost to the Spurs, nodded: "Xie's approach is very correct, the Spurs are too strong, even our Rockets can easily beat, Xie should show 100% strength from the first game." ”

As soon as this statement came out, fans all over the world were boiling.

"Hahaha, gospurs fans, let you guys talk again, I thank you for showing your hidden ability, the Spurs will be beaten in the second half!"

"I knew that Xie Chen still had a hidden move, but I thought he would wait until he played the warriors to use it, but I didn't expect to be forced out by playing the spurs, Xie Chen is too cowardly, he hasn't lost a game yet, let's fight first, maybe he can win?"

The game between the Warriors and the Cavaliers is tomorrow, so at this time, Curry of the Warriors and James of the Cavaliers are also paying attention to this game, and they are all shocked when they hear Xie Chen's words.

"Xie is going to show his hidden ability in advance! This guy really has a big move, he was able to hold back in the finals last year, I don't know if the situation will change in the second half. Stephen Curry felt that Xie Chen was terrible and unfathomable, and at the same time breathed a sigh of relief, if the Spurs could force Xie Chen's full ability out, then even if the Lakers won the Spurs, the Warriors knew how to deal with it, and they were afraid that Xie Chen would suddenly attack.

James looked incredulous: "Xie has no reason to announce this in front of the opponent, it is estimated that even if Xie has the ability to hide, he will not use it in the second half, he is just scaring the Spurs players, but unfortunately Popovich will not be deceived so easily." ”

In the Staples Center, Popovich ordered the Spurs players who stopped at the same time: "Put away your shocked expressions, give me all back, thank you for playing tricks on you." ”

Jonathan Simmons originally looked surprised, but when he heard the coach's words, he suddenly burst into a foul language, "Damn, you dare to scare us!" ”

Others thought about it and felt that something was wrong.

Back in the locker room, Xie Chen was also besieged by his teammates.

Nick Yang, Ci Shiping, Clarkson and others surrounded Xie Chen, and they had to ask for a result.

"Boss, what is your ability to hide for so long? Let us know in advance. ”

"You'll have to wait until I'm on the court with you, and when your new abilities blow the crowd, I'm going to do a celebration with you! Tell me what your new weapon is, and I'll think of a better celebratory move. ”

Nick Young also wanted to take this opportunity to pretend to be forced with Xie Chen on the court.

Because Xie Chen was improvised, and he didn't greet the coach in advance, Luke Wharton thought that Xie Chen was going to use his hidden Michael Jordan's layup ability, so he walked over and asked, "Isn't it too early to do it now?" ”

Hearing the coach say this, the players were even more convinced that Xie Chen had the ability to hide.

"It turns out that the coach has long known what Xie's hidden ability is, coach, Xie doesn't say it, you come and tell us." Nick Young can't wait to find out what Xie Chen will play in the second half.

Xie Chen hurriedly said: "I want to use a new offensive weapon that I haven't used before, and the coach doesn't know what it is, I will find a time to use it in the second half, believe me, this one, we have won, you have to have confidence." ”

Xie Chen wants to use Nowitzki's Golden Rooster Independence, after the fusion degree is 100%, Xie Chen has not used it on the field, this skill is not very useful to him, but it is also an S-level new ability.

Today, the Spurs are in good shape and are not easy to deal with, so Xie Chen came up with this trick, first scare and scare the opponent, and at the same time, it can also improve the confidence of his teammates in this game.

In the Spurs' locker room, the topic still revolves around Xie Chen's new ability.

"Xie This guy actually scared us, saying what kind of hidden new ability to use in the second half, he really thinks of himself as a god, can he have whatever ability he wants?" Simmons complained with an unhappy face, just now Popovich said that Xie Chen was lying to them, and he believed it.

Ginobili said: "Xie has always liked to say big things before doing anything, and that's how to go forward to the All-Stars, but the big words he said have been fulfilled one by one, I don't think he is simply bluffing us, maybe he really has some new tricks, let's be careful." ”

"That's right, Ezer's position in the alliance, I don't believe he will talk empty words." Tony Parker followed suit.

Listening to the players constantly talking about Xie Chen, Popovich touched his forehead helplessly, and felt melancholy in his heart: "Xie This guy is too powerful, one sentence makes our players become uncalm, I believe his teammates will be more motivated, even if we play a wave of offensive high at the beginning of the third quarter. tide, leading by more than a dozen points, they will also feel that Xie will use new abilities to bring them back, and it seems that we will not be able to break their confidence in the second half. ”

The second half started quickly, the focus of the whole audience was on Xie Chen, Curry and James, who were not on the scene, also stared at the screen without blinking, no one knew when Xie Chen would use his hidden ability, and they didn't want to miss that shocking moment!

"Since you all think that kid has a secret weapon, let's go and make the score bigger and force him to show it!" Popovich encouraged the players.

But how could Xie Chen allow the Spurs to expand the score, Nowitzki's Golden Rooster Independence is a two-point ability, and it is too difficult to rely on this to chase points, so Xie Chen used other abilities to maintain the score first.

"When will Xie Chen use his new ability!" Ke Fan spoke to the hearts of fans around the world.
