I’m Really Playing Basketball

Chapter 255: I'm the leader

Although just now on the court, under the booing of Xiao Zhan, Chen Xiao installed a wave of oversized Bs in front of the Lakers fans and O'Neal, but pretended to pretend to be B. After loading, you can't really be so angry.

Compared with other NBA stars who like to play B, Chen Xiao is still very sober.

Just now, there was a wave of "God Is Back" drama on the court. Back in the locker room, Chen Xiao hugged and thanked the Eastern All-Stars who were ready to pack and leave.

Very approachable, high in EQ, even Lei Allen, the lonely little prince, has nothing to say. When Chen Xiao hugs you with an innocent and cheerful smile, it's really hard to refuse.

Moreover, in this All-Star, Chen Xiao's handling of O'Neal was so miserable, even worse than the assassins and Big Bird's handling of Jordan. This is something that everyone sees.

Bring 23 All-Stars to fix O'Neal.

This is simply taking the lead!

This kind of influence, even people like Lei Allen who are unwilling to interact with other people, will pay attention.

This is a manifestation of the status of the arena.

A person with such a status, who can achieve this level, who can refuse his favor?

And Chen Xiao is not just the kind of Eastern leader who just hugs, and there are many greetings, blessings, thanks, and so on. This time the All-Star Eastern leader is alive and well.

Well, Chen Xiao is really not polite. After O'Neal was usurped by him, Chen Xiao really took the seat of O'Neal directly.

After the All-Star Game, Chen Xiao defeated O'Neal and directly took the position of the Eastern Conference magnate.

Now I am busy doing what the big guys should do.

And Yao Ming, compared with last year's Atlanta All-Stars, his status and performance in the Los Angeles All-Stars this year have also risen a lot.

Of course, Yao Ming also knows that this is because he was protected by Chen Xiao, otherwise, with his status and strength, how could he be able to suppress O'Neal on the bench.

How could it be possible to score 20 points in the All-Star Game and become one of the brightest players in the All-Star Game tonight.

Therefore, when he came out of the locker room and was interviewed by a Chinese reporter, Yao Ming knew very well that the protagonist in Los Angeles did not belong to him.

Yao Ming said: "Don't talk about one of the protagonists. There is no one of the protagonists. This time the Los Angeles All-Star, there is only one protagonist, and that is Xiao Chen, and I only hope that I can enjoy the game. Xiao Chen really let me do it. at this point."

For Chen Xiao finally becoming the MVP, Yao Ming first congratulated him: "But when the next All-Star Game is held in Miami, I think the MVP will be produced between me and Wade!"

Compared with last year's All-Star, there are fewer reporters around Yao Ming this year.

As for the reason, everyone is tacitly aware. Although Yao Ming and Chen Xiao are good friends, they are both Chinese players. The resources of the two are shared. Whoever is more powerful will go to whoever has more resources.

Although Yao Ming has been improving and has become one of the most dazzling All-Stars this year, it is also true that the gap between him and Chen Xiao has been widening.

Chen Xiao's progress and growth is so fast.

It makes people feel like riding a rocket quickly.

There were fewer reporters around, and the reporters' questions were not so noisy, but rather intermittent. Yao Ming yawned while answering the questions.

Riding in neutral, taking off his jersey and putting on formal clothes, Yao Ming looked very tired.

"Can you not be tired? I ran for 30 minutes on the field today, and the Heat will have training tomorrow. I think of this and I feel very tired. And, starting tomorrow, I will have to fight with real swordsmanship." Yao Ming said. sigh.

General Manager Pat Riley’s training style is exactly the same as his teacher Adolf Rupp, who is known as the “devil coach” in the NCAA, the godfather of the University of Kentucky.

Pat Riley is very devilish in the Heat.

However, from the current situation of Yao Ming, Yao Ming's mentality is still very good, waiting for Wade's time, when he saw Kirilenko only scored 2 points and 1 rebound for his first All-Star game and was depressed. Yao Ming also comforted him: "It's no big deal. When I played the first All-Star, it was almost the same."

Being comforted by Yao Ming, Kirilenko was a little flattered, after all, he received encouragement from the boss.

He who doesn't know whether he will be able to enter the All-Star next time is really excited by the encouragement of the boss. What Yao said is that he still has a chance in the future to let him cheer.

This made Kirilenko, who had been depressed for a long time, instantly brightened up a lot.

The scene where Yao Ming comforted Kirilenko and flattered Kirilenko was seen by the Chinese reporters next to him.

"Da Yao has not only improved a lot in strength, but also gradually integrated with the NBA and won his new position. This seems to be more important than performance."

Back to Chen Xiao, Chen Xiao's last Eastern All-Star teammate to say goodbye was Wade.

With the end of the All-Star Game, the NBA regular season is about to end and sprint.

This time, I don’t know when the next meeting will be.

"Chen, cherish it."

"The same to you."

After embracing Chen Xiao reluctantly, Wade looked at James who was standing behind Chen Xiao, and finally left the Eastern All-Star locker room with gritted teeth in his heart.

After Wade left, Chen Xiao and James were left in the entire Eastern dressing room.

"Little Zhan, let's go too, they have been waiting for a long time."

Chen Xiao smiled and finished speaking to James, James also showed a very excited smile.

The first All-Star debut, and the first time he got a quasi-triple double of 20+10+8. To be fair, Xiao Zhan can’t wait to be praised and admired by American reporters.

Although Chen Xiao and James had known for a long time that they would encounter indiscriminate bombing this time, when they did appear at the press conference after the game, they were still shocked by a group of reporters who were suppressed by the U.S. NS.

Of course, in the press conference after the game, in addition to the questions about James’ first All-Star or Chen Xiao’s mood for defending the All-Star MVP, the most common question asked by reporters is this evening. Is the eldest brother who is going to engage in O'Neill Chen Xiao?

In fact, reporters have asked a lot of people about this question, but there is no answer. Even the head coach of the East, Phil Jackson, these reporters have asked.

"I didn't focus on Chen and Shaq. I mean, although we can feel that there may be some problems, as the head coach of the All Eastern Conference, our task is to focus on the ball. "

I have to say that what Phil Jackson said is too good, saying it is the same as not saying it.

But Phil Jackson can only say that.

In this All-Star game, the whole world can see that the 23 All-Stars in the East and the West are playing O'Neal under the nose of the Lakers fans, which is too blatant.

O'Neill was indeed engaged, and no one could deny this, and it was not blind.

But, this leader, you really can’t say who.

Because everyone wanted to be the protagonist for the outstanding players on the court, Chen Xiao finally became the protagonist, but before Chen Xiao, the first 45 minutes of the game, Carter, the O'Neal Nets, scored the most in the first 45 minutes of the game. Teammates.

Everyone knows that the All-Star MVP has always given the winner the most points.

In other words, Carter almost became the protagonist.

Can't you say that Carter took the lead in O'Neal?

Everyone took turns to have some relationship with O'Neal. Chen Xiao was the first one to do it, but Carter was the most cruel one in the middle. The most favorable one for O'Neal was the West and Kobe and Garnett Kidd. Chen Xiao also Is a fan of Kobe Garnett, Kidd's little follower.

Your taste, your fine taste.

Even if O'Neal said directly after the game that the man who committed him was Chen Xiao, these reporters would not believe it.

"Chen, are you really the eldest brother Shaq said?"

When the Los Angeles reporter asked this question, he did not expect Chen Xiao to answer directly.

After all, O'Neal's status in the NBA is still very high. It is really not a concept to do this and take the initiative to admit it.

Even if O'Neill thinks you are, it doesn't matter as long as you don't admit it.

Therefore, when the Los Angeles reporter asked this question, he did not think that Chen Xiao would answer it.

However, what happened next shocked the reporters at the scene.

"Do you believe I am the one who took the lead in Shaq?"

"Chen, I just asked my question, I didn't say that you are the big brother to take the lead."

The blonde and white female reporter from Los Angeles, who was asked by Chen Xiao with a smile, looked at Chen Xiao gracefully and said.

"Really, this does seem whimsical and unmarginal. I really don’t seem to be a leader who can engage in Shaq. I’m just a second-year young player. My qualifications are this time. One of the shallowest in the All-Stars, I still have a big boss on my head, but the truth is..."

"I am the big brother you are looking for to take the lead."

Chen Xiao smiled and finished speaking, except for the blonde reporter from Los Angeles, everyone stood up with a bang.

Watching the smiling teenager on TV, O'Neal gritted his teeth and clenched his fists.

This kid actually admitted it!

"Let's wait and see!"

At the press conference after the game, Chen Xiao admitted very generously and directly that he was the leader of O'Neal in this All-Star Game. This news instantly became the hottest news on the Internet in the United States and the world.

O'Neal's All-Star game was so miserable this time, if he is a player who is about to retire like Jordan, he can only do that, he can only swallow his breath.

But O'Neal is not only still at the peak, but also recognized as the most dominant player in the NBA. The first person, he also holds a heavy soldier in his hand.

The power is extremely large.

More importantly, O'Neal is now No. 1 in the Eastern Conference with the Nets, and the Seventy Degree is just eighth in the Eastern Conference.

The Cavaliers are in the mouth of the Nets.

Under such circumstances, Chen Xiao actually regarded O'Neal and the Nets as innocent and admitted that he was the leader of O'Neal this time. This is really incredible.

"'The fact is, I am the leader you are looking for.' This is too domineering!"

"Although the words of Wonder Boy are very calm, but with this tone and smile, he is facing the threat of Shaq and the Nets. If he speaks with this calm and smile, this is definitely what I have seen. One of the most domineering responses!"

Chen Xiao's response at the press conference after the game was still burning all over the world. At this time, Chen Xiao and Xiao Zhan had already boarded a special plane to New York.

After the All-Star break, what follows is the final sprint of the NBA regular season. For the Cavaliers with a record of 29 wins and 24 losses, it is even more of a sprint in the sprint.

The Raptors, seventh in the East, have a record of 30 wins and 21 losses.

The eighth Cavaliers in the East have a record of 29 wins and 24 losses.

The Hornets, ninth in the East, have a record of 28 wins and 24 losses.

The 10th Bucks in the East has a record of 27 wins and 24 losses.

Except for the Raptors, who are now chasing the 76ers, the Cavaliers, Hornets and Bucks are now very anxious.

The Cavaliers originally had the advantage, but the two-game losing streak to the Nets and Timberwolves before the All-Stars wiped out the Cavaliers' lead.

Although still eighth in the East, the losses of the three teams are the same.

This is a bit unclear.

Although the Cavaliers have passed the Devil's schedule, the pressure is still great.

The Cavaliers’ first game after the All-Star Game was an away game against the New York Knicks.

This is the beginning of the four-game winning streak after the Cavaliers All-Star Game.

Knicks, Bulls, Magic, Rockets.

Except for magic, nothing else is too strong.

Except for the Bulls, none of them are very weak.

Therefore, this four-linker is not very devil, but it is not so easy.

When Chen Xiao and James returned to the team, all the Cavaliers players who had put on the All-Star leave were already in place.

This All-Star holiday is a vacation for the Cavaliers salted fish veterans, so after returning from vacation, these people have some small belly.

But for these young players in the Cavaliers, this All-Star holiday is an opportunity to recharge.

They played more than 50 games in the first half of the regular season. What kind of gains they have can be absorbed and digested in this half week.

This is very important for these young players.

In the history of the NBA, the rookie wall of many rookies was broken by the All-Star holiday.

Of course, for players like Chen Xiao and James who don't have a rookie wall, it's hard to empathize.

"Xiao Chen, our righteous partners, they are in a very good mood now."

"Yup."

In addition to the physical and technical charge, this holiday also gave them a mental charge. After all, the Cavaliers lost 11 in the past 20 games of the Cavaliers.

Although they have survived now, they still have suffered a lot of mental trauma.

After Chen Xiao and James returned to the team, they found that their partners are now in good condition. This is something to be happy about.

This will make them less stressful.

Therefore, in addition to losing to the Magic, the Cavaliers won the other three games in the four four-game away games.

The Cavaliers' role players performed well in these four games. On the contrary, Xiao Zhan's offensive state in these four games was average, and some of them did not recover from the crazy dunks of the All-Stars.

Although the Eastern and Western All-Stars played very well, the intensity of the game was really not as high as in the regular season. In the All-Star Game, how did Jenner dunk and dunk.

He even completed a dunk from the free throw line in actual combat.

However, in the regular season game, it is difficult for him to have such a chance.

Even playing against a team that is not that strong like the New York Knicks, James's defense is better than in the All-Stars.

Therefore, he needs to change his offensive style.

Of course, although Xiao Zhan’s offensive state in these four games is not good, his assist state is still very good. After all, Chen Xiao’s offensive state in these four games is very good. Except for the Bulls, his shooting percentage in the other three games has exceeded 50. %.

Because Xiao Zhan's offensive state is not good, Chen Xiao needs to attack vigorously in these four games.

So all four games have 30 points, the least is 34 points against the Magic Bulls, 39 points against the Knicks, 37 points against the mosaic.

After playing the mosaic, the Cavaliers returned to Cleveland from Texas on February 26 and faced back-to-back at home against the Dallas Mavericks, the western powerhouse that came to challenge.

Nowitzki, Antoine Walker, Finley, Jamison, and Grant Hill led the five-star Mavericks to the Cavaliers.

Even if Grant Hill doesn't play, the Mavericks' offense is quite explosive.

The Dallas Mavericks did not play well this season, not because of their offense. They averaged 106 points per game this season. They were not strong last season. They were one of the strongest offensive teams in the NBA last season.

The five-star Mavericks have a bad record this season, mainly because of their defense, averaging 100 points per game this season.

They only lost 95 points per game last season.

Playing the Mavericks, if your offense is not that strong, you will suffer a lot.

Because of defense, it is really unstoppable.

The Cavaliers still have too few people to attack.

Chen Xiao, James, and Crawford are just three players with stable offensive ability.

Although the Cavaliers back-to-back in this game, Chen Xiao, Crawford, and James are in good offensive state.

Chen Xiao made 15 of 26, 4 of 9 three-pointers, 5 of 6 free throws, and scored 39 points. Crawford scored 8 of 19 with 20 points, and James scored 10 of 21 with 30 points.

The trio scored 89 points in this game, which is already very good.

But apart from the three of Chen Xiao, the others scored a total of 22 points. This is not bad, it is the normal level of the Cavaliers, but the key is that the Mavericks' offense in this game is a bit crazy.

In this game, the Mavericks scored 7 in double figures and 4 scored 20. They eventually defeated the Cleveland Cavaliers 118-111 on the road.

After losing to the Mavericks at home, on February 28, the Cavaliers ushered in the Spurs at home.

This is the first time Chen Xiao has met Luo Ge this season.

In this game against the brand new Luo Ge, Chen Xiao is very interested.

In this game, he finally met Luo Ge, who was called the ‘Jump Edition’ by the fans, and the ‘turning circle’ expert.

Chen Xiao played with Jordan's backwards, the genuine Jordan's backwards, which is based on the super strong arms, bounce power and flexible balance and other attributes.

And Luo Ge, his arm span and hands are not lacking, but he does not have such a strong bounce, agility, balance and other attributes.

Without such strong physical attributes, there is no way to have such a strong ability to stay in the air and resist interference.

In this case, Luo Ge, under the guidance of Popovich, developed another beggar version of Joe's backwards, which is completely different from Kobe.

Using his ball possession and ball quotient IQ, he drove the ball in circles, turned the defender fainted, and then leaned back and shot.

This trick is very suitable for players like Luo Ge who have extremely high double quotient and excellent ball control.

In this game, Xiao Zhan, who played against Luo Ge, is now very fond of jumping, and was almost confused by Luo Ge.

Although the Cavaliers defeated the Spurs 109 to 89 in this game.

But Luo Ge was 10 for 19 and scored 26 points.

Of course, Xiao Zhan made 14, 32 points, 11 rebounds and 12 assists in 23 of the game. He used the pick-and-roll to get rid of Luo Ge and was very happy to hit the basket.

However, after all, these points for Xiao Zhan were obtained through the pick-and-roll.

Xiao Zhan seems to have a higher pursuit now.

He wanted to directly cover Arenas one-on-one like Chen Xiao.

In this game, Chen Xiao made 13 of 26, 6 of 13 three-pointers, 5 of 6 free throws, and scored 37 points, 6 rebounds, 8 assists, 3 steals and 3 blocks in the game.

The opposite Arenas scored 9 of 28 and scored 21 points, which was quite miserable.

In this game, Chen Xiao and Arenas went crazy one-on-one, just like Chen Xiao played Kobe. However, Arenas obviously doesn't have the strength of Kobe now, and Chen Xiao exploded.

"Little Zhan, if you want to be like me, you need to practice shooting, otherwise, even if you retire, you won't be able to play a game like mine. You can only be a pick and roll king."

Chen Xiao is very satisfied that Xiao Zhan has such a pursuit.

But you kid first changed the habit of three days of fishing and two days of netting when practicing shooting.

Although you are busy and you have a lot of entertainment, this is understandable, but, after all, you are a basketball player, not a businessman.

Chen Xiao still hopes that Xiao Zhan can spend more time on basketball.

Although Xiao Zhan now has too many interests bound to him.

Son of Chosen, Son of America, these titles are not so easy to pick.

You earn 100 million and Kobe earns 50 million, which is not normal.

The money of American capitalists is not so easy to make.

Xiao Zhan is a smart person, and Chen Xiao only needs to click and stop.

Chen Xiao believes that Xiao Zhan will find this balance.

After playing this game, Luo had a very good time with the Spurs, which made Chen Xiao relieved.

"Brother Luo, I believe you can become a greater player, even greater than you think!"

After the game, Chen Xiao was full of confidence in Luo Ge.

Well, he is more confident than Luo himself.

"Chen, what about me!"

you?

Chen Xiao looked at Arenas who was unhappy and dissatisfied and smiled.

"Waiting for Gilbert Mamba's spirit to become a great player, he can also become a great player."

"We Mamba have no weak people!"

Really!

Arenas was very excited.

"So, Gilbert, come, celebrate the greatness of the future one by one, follow me, and we will all be together."

"..."

The excited Arenas petrified in an instant.

After defeating the Spurs at home, the Cavaliers ended all their games in February.

In a single month in February, the Cavaliers achieved a record of 8 wins and 5 losses, and the record was not bad.

The Cavaliers' record of 33 wins and 26 losses is still ranked eighth in the Eastern Conference.

The Hornets, who competed with the Cavaliers for eighth in the East, are now 33 wins and 26 losses, while the Bucks are slightly back 32 wins and 27 losses.

The Bucks opened a little gap with the Hornets.

The end of February, the time has entered March.

The first game of the March Cavaliers was to play the Hornets at home.

This game is very important for both teams.

The Hornets in the away game gave the Cavaliers a shock as soon as they came up.

Byron Davis and Jamal Marshburn played 6-for-6 in a single quarter in this game. They added 12-for-12 in the first quarter. A defensive team played such an offensive state. The Cavaliers went blind.

In the first quarter, under the leadership of Jamal Marshburn and Byron Davis to score 28 points, the Hornets led the Cavaliers with 21 points 37-16.

This has to be replaced by the previous Cavaliers, which has already collapsed.

In this quarter, Chen Xiao scored 14 points in 6 of 11.

The other Cavaliers players scored 1 of 12 and scored 2 points.

The Hornets showed an amazing state in the first quarter. The offense was hot, and the defense was equally hot.

The Hornets are indeed superior to the Cavaliers. The last time the two teams faced off, the Cavaliers were able to win the Hornets mainly because of the absence of Jamal Marsh, and David Wesley undercover. In this game, there are Byron’s Davis. After playing Jamal Marshburn, the Hornets feel completely different.

Of course, even if the Hornets are stronger and beat the Cavaliers like this in the first quarter, the main thing is the state.

The team's offense in the first quarter was too strong.

15 of 19 in a single quarter, 4 of 5 on three-pointers, not to mention the Cavaliers, Magic, Nets, Heat, everyone will die!

Fortunately, in the second quarter, Jamal Marshburn was 1 in 5 and Byron Davis was 1 in 6, which proved that the Hornets are still a defensive team and the offense is quite unstable.

In the second quarter, the Cavaliers riding the Hornets felt average, and they pulled back 29 to 22 in a single quarter.

In the third quarter, both teams strengthened their defenses after one and a half.

Under the defense of the Cavaliers, the Hornets were 6 of 18 and scored 18 points in a single quarter. The Cavaliers were 8 of 21 in a single quarter, and their shooting percentage was not high. However, Chen Xiao and James of the Cavaliers were crazy after the Hornets' defense strengthened. Of killing.

Chen Xiao made 6 of 6 free throws in a single quarter, and James made 4 of 6 free throws.

Relying on the kills of Chen Xiao and James, the Cavaliers scored 10 points 28-18 in a single quarter.

At the end of the three quarters, the Cavaliers, which were 21 points behind, were 73 to 77, only 4 points behind.

In the fourth quarter, the defenses of both sides upgraded again. In this quarter, the Hornets made 18 shots, and the Cavaliers made 15 shots even less.

With Jamal Marsh’s 6-for-1 in the single quarter and a cold hand, Byron Davis stood up in the fourth quarter, 6-for-3 in the single quarter, 2 of 3 three-pointers, 3 of 4 free throws, and single The knot scored 11 points.

Byron Davis performed very well in the fourth quarter.

But unfortunately, the Cavaliers on the opposite side played more reasonably than the Hornets.

At the beginning of the fourth quarter, after losing a three-pointer, James, who was sure that he was not feeling well, did not make a crazy test shot like Jamal Marshburn. Instead, he assisted Chen Xiao with all his strength. Don't make a move either.

In the crucial fourth quarter, the Cavaliers did not have any boss fights, and the whole team was creating opportunities for Chen Xiao.

15 shots, 9 shots by Chen Xiao, Chen Xiao made 6 of 9 in a single quarter, 2 of 2 three-pointers, 5 of 6 free throws, and scored 19 points in a single quarter.

In the end, under the leadership of Chen Xiao, the Cavaliers defeated the Hornets 104 to 100 at home with 21 points behind.

After the Cavaliers defeated the Hornets at home, the record became 34 wins and 26 losses, while the Hornets became 33 wins and 27 losses. The Cavaliers finally established their record advantage once again.

In this game, as the Cavaliers' main attacker, Chen Xiao made 18 of 33, 6 of 13 three-pointers, 13 of 15 free throws, and scored 57 points, 6 rebounds and 3 assists.

Fifty-seven points in a single game tied Chen Xiao's career scoring record.

In addition to Chen Xiao, James scored 6-for-16, 19 points, 4 rebounds and 16 assists in a double-double.

After the game, James was alone in the assists leader position with 10.3 assists per game, overpowering Nash.

Crawford scored 14 points on 6-for-11.

Opposite the Hornets, Byron Davis was 11 of 21, 6 of 12 three-pointers, and scored 34 points.

Jamal Marsh scored 9 of 24 with 23 points. After 6 of 6 in the first quarter, he was 3 of 18 in the next three quarters.

Therefore, Byron Davis looks so ugly after the game.

David Wesley is gone, and there is another Jamal Marshburn. He thought he was his own, but he did not expect to be the other's undercover again.

After the game, Byron Davis was very envious of Chen Xiao.

He also wants to have a teammate like James. It doesn't matter if you score poorly, but can you not grab the show?

Look at James on the opposite side!

You gave me your six shots in the fourth quarter, and our Hornets won!

Byron Davis was dissatisfied.

But there is no way. If you lose, you lose.

This game between the Cavaliers and the Hornets is a game related to two wins. It is very important, not only for the record, but also for morale.

This victory was clearly a good start for the Cavaliers in March.

This failure also put tremendous pressure on the Hornets in March.

And March is precisely the most important stage of the sprint.

On March 2, the Hornets played the Wizards away back-to-back. After an overtime game, the Hornets double guns, who had scored 62 points, were finally cut by 8 points in overtime. The whole game was 18 of 34 and scored 48 points. Tuckerhouse was wiped out~www.NovelMTL.com~ When the Hornets lost again on the away game, and one day later, the Cavaliers beat the Hawks 112 to 80 at home, and once again opened up the gap with the Hornets, the national media has already Exclaiming.

Cleveland is here!

"Shaq, Cleveland has a very big advantage in the eighth competition in the Eastern Conference this season. Your opponent in the first round is probably really a Cavaliers and a Wonder Boy. What do you think?"

In Phoenix on March 3, facing the exclamation of coming from Cleveland, O'Neal, who had finished the away game with the Suns, faced reporters' questions.

There was no answer, just a tone particle.

"Humph!"

This tone is quite disdainful.
