Super All-around Point Guard

James of the Cavaliers and Durant of the Warriors are very concerned about Xie Chen's every move, but they don't feel threatened by Randall's exposure. How can a player who has never played in the post teach others to become Better player?

The Lakers' next opponent is the Dallas Mavericks, also on the road. Xie Chen has been reminded that they can no longer play so hard in every game. Now they have won many games. It doesn't matter if they lose once in a while. In consecutive away games, every time Having to play two teams also makes Xie Chen a little tired. He doesn't want to score 50 plus or 60 plus in the next game. The Mavericks don't have anyone who can go head-to-head with Xie Chen, and there's no one who can offend Xie Chen. A bad boy, Xie Chen shouldn't have any motivation to score like crazy.

This time against the Mavericks, the focus is not on Xie Chen, but on Mozgov.

Mozgov also needs to develop new abilities now. He will take on more scoring tasks. In the playoffs, when Xie Chen is being looked at very closely, if Mozgov can stand up and score, it will be This is a very beneficial thing. The Lakers specially hired a trainer to improve Mozgov's speed and other physical functions as much as possible. Mozgov's talent is not bad, but his body is poor. Fortunately, Mozgov Gove is only 30 years old, not old yet.

Mozgov's opponent inside was the old Warriors player Bogut, who Xie Chen was very familiar with. The Mavericks originally wanted to chase the Heat's Hassan Whiteside and Batum Conley, but they were unsuccessful. Durant decided After going to the Warriors, the Mavericks quickly reached a deal with the Warriors and invited Bogut to Dallas. Not only Bogut, but Harrison Barnes, another "general" of the Warriors, also came to the Mavericks for four years and $9,400.

Although Barnes is very young, only 24 years old, and almost always starts in the league's first team like the Warriors, his performance in the Finals was extremely poor, which directly affected the Warriors' contract extension with him. , experts from the "Dallas Morning News" said that the Mavericks' most important signing this summer may have been too much! Barnes is likely to be a garbage contract, and Barnes is just an average mid-level player.

Barnes also participated in this American Dream Team. During this period, he has been controversial. After the start of the new season, Barnes was still unable to fully adapt to this completely different team, and his performance was average. As a result, , even more people questioned the junk contract. Barnes especially wanted to prove himself in front of Xie Chen, because Xie Chen was his opponent in the finals. It was Xie Chen who made the Warriors miss the championship, and Barnes also suffered.

In addition to Bogut and Barnes, there is another person who has something to do with the Warriors guys, and that is Seth Curry, the Mavericks' new signing. Seth Curry is Stephen Curry's younger brother. The two look very similar. Similar, but the status of the two brothers in the NBA is completely different. Curry is already the signature of the league, but Seth Curry is still working hard to prove himself where to play.

In addition, the Mavericks' signature star veteran Nowitzki also finalized a new contract with the Mavericks. The Mavericks increased the amount to US$50 million over two years. It was previously reported that it was US$40 million over two years. It has to be said that Library Ban is really a good boss. After this, some netizens joked and concluded: Dallas is affectionate and righteous, San Antonio is affectionate and righteous, Los Angeles is affectionate and careless, go to Miami...

Arriving at the American Airlines Center Arena, home of the Mavericks, the Mavericks locker room has always been known for its luxury, and owner Cuban also built the Mavericks' home arena in the game "Minecraft."

Cuban is an interesting person and a guy who is very passionate about basketball. He is also very interested in the superstars in the league. After seeing Xie Chen, he immediately went to the home court to say hello to Xie Chen: "I had guessed it a long time ago." You will come to the West, and now we are also opponents in the playoffs. I really hope that the current ranking is the final ranking, haha."

The Lakers are now ranked first in the Western Conference, and the Dallas Mavericks are eighth in the Western Conference. According to the rankings, the two teams will meet in the first round of the playoffs. Nowitzki is old, and Barnes still doesn’t know what he can do. The Mavericks do not have super stars and a system to guarantee their record, so there is basically no hope for the Mavericks to hit the top three or even the top four in the Western Conference this season. They will definitely encounter a strong team in the first round of the playoffs, and Cuban certainly hopes to meet them in the first round. The Lakers are a "fake strong team".

Faced with Cuban's contempt, Xie Chen was not polite: "I also hope to meet you. It feels really good to end the series in four games."

Xie Chen was ranked eighth last season and was able to sweep the Raptors, who were number one in the Eastern Conference. What's more, they are now number one?

Nowitzki is an out-and-out veteran. He has also entered the last period of his NBA career. He was indeed unsolvable at his peak, but now he does not pose much of a threat to the Lakers. There is also Deron Williams. He was once a standout with Chris Paul, and was once considered the perfect combination of strength and speed. However, since his left ankle injury, his career is destined to no longer continue to be exciting.

After the game started, Harrison Barnes and Bogut became the main force of the Mavericks against the Lakers. Both looked at Xie Chen with a very hostile look, which made Xie Chen very uncomfortable. All the old Warriors players were like this. Hate yourself?

The Warriors missed the championship twice, both times at the hands of Xie Chen, and had to recruit Durant, which directly led to the departure of the two. Therefore, both Barnes and Bogut hated Xie Chen, especially Barnes. Now that he is being questioned as a junk contract, he has to prove his worth in front of Xie Chen.

Barnes scored eight points in the first quarter and seemed to have a strong desire to attack. Xie Chen found that the opponent kept looking at him with hostile eyes and couldn't help but ask: "Why do you always use this kind of thing?" Looking at me? Just because I cost you two championship rings? The Warriors are not your team."

Curry, Thompson, and Green treated Xie Chen like this. Xie Chen could understand that Barnes was just a role player. Even if the Warriors won the championship, he would not have much credit.

Barnes said: "You prevented me from getting a big contract with the Warriors. It was you who forced me to leave there."

After hearing this, Xie Chen didn't expect that Barnes was so nostalgic for the Warriors. However, if you don't get a big contract, it's because you don't play well. You can't blame others. Xie Chen knows that this guy has poor psychological quality and is easily affected by his emotions, which affects his performance. , also knew that he was very concerned about other people's doubts about him, so he provoked the other party: "To be honest, I am really surprised that the Mavericks can sign you at such a high price. You are not a player who can get that kind of contract at all. I feel bad for Cuban."

"You look down on me?!" Barnes was really furious. This guy's emotional control ability was really average. No wonder he couldn't adjust his state in the finals. The more nervous he was, the worse his performance was. It's the same now when he gets angry.

Next, Barnes played even more fiercely. It was okay to break through and draw fouls, but his shots were off target.

One time, Xie Chen happened to be guarding Barnes. Xie Chen let Barnes shoot, but he didn't even take off to block the shot!

This is complete contempt for Barnes' ability! As expected, Barnes' mood was affected. Even if Xie Chen didn't block the shot, Barnes actually missed the shot!

"Oh my god, Xie didn't jump to block Harrison Barnes. He didn't even make the shot."

"This is a psychological tactic. He also used it against James Harden in the last game against the Rockets."

After Barnes missed the shot, Xie Chen did not forget to continue to stimulate the opponent: "Look, I am not wrong, right?"

At this time, Bogut saw that Xie Chen wanted to deliberately anger Barnes. The two were also old teammates. He stepped forward and said to Barnes: "Brother, don't listen to that kid. He is the king of trash talk. Even our previous teammates Teammate Draymond Green can't compare to him, he wants to deliberately provoke you, can't you tell?"

Barnes knew Xie Chen's intentions, but he still couldn't control himself from getting angry!

A great player must not only have strong personal abilities, but also have excellent psychological quality. How can he become a top star if he is so easily influenced by others?

In the 2012 game between the Lakers and the Nets, there were only 4.8 seconds left in the game and the Lakers were leading 92 to 90. Kobe went to the free throw line, preparing to take a shot that might determine the outcome. Nets veteran Gerald Wallace Just trying to influence Kobe with trash talk, Kobe was completely unmoved and retorted: "How much do you want to bet? How much do you want to bet? I'll bet 500,000 on this ball!"

Wallace didn't dare to take a gamble at all, and then Kobe made a solid free throw for this key goal.

If it were Barnes, he might be nervous to death, but if it were Kobe, he could bet money with you while talking and laughing. Kobe didn't believe he couldn't make the shot, and Barnes didn't believe he could make the shot.

Xie Chen did not respond too much to the Mavericks' offense. Tonight, he was more like a qualified traditional point guard, focusing on organizing offense rather than individual attacks.

Mozgov came to the low post and faced Bogut with his back. Xie Chen immediately passed the ball over. The two have trained many offenses in this position. Mozgov has also had many kinds of attacks in the same position. Offensive routine.

This time, after receiving Xie Chen's pass, Mozgov quickly turned his back. Bogut was shocked. What is going on? I've played with Mozgov before, but I've never seen him play like this?

Mozgov knew that he was not fast enough, so he forced himself to improve his reflexes, but it was definitely impossible to practice it well in just two days. This back turn was okay, but the dunk he received after that was missed by Mozgov The dunk flew away.

"Hahaha, what on earth does this big man want to do? Why did he suddenly speed up?"

"If this ball could be scored, it would be a really good ball. It's a pity that he is not so flexible."

Xie Chen stepped forward to comfort his teammates and said: "It doesn't matter, keep working hard, your back turns are getting better and better."

Mozgov also knew that if he wanted to meet Xie Chen's requirements, he had to continue to "fail" like this. Only by keeping doing it could he get better and better.

After that, Mozgov tried many difficult moves, but most of them failed.

The fans at the scene gradually became a little puzzled: "Why did the Lakers' offense tonight focus so much on the inside? Are they bullying the Mavericks because they don't have inside defenders? Bogut is one of the best defenders in the league today!"

Mozgov encountered Bogut in the first game of trying out new moves. It was indeed a very big test. Bogut is a very difficult guy. Mozgov failed to beat Bogut several times, which also made Bogut feel uncomfortable. He was in a great mood and looked at Mozgov with contempt: "Don't be naive. You can't score if I defend you."

Mozgov knew that he couldn't score. The bigger reason was that his skills and shooting had not been perfected yet, not because of Bogut's defense.

In this game, Xie Chen did not take on so many offenses, and the Mavericks were also very tough. The score between the two teams was very low. At the end of the fourth quarter, the score had not exceeded 100 points, and Xie Chen's score was only 25 points. If it was not a last resort, He didn't want his score to break 30 again to play another game.

Mavericks coach Carlisle told his players during the timeout: "The score is very tight now. I guess their last few offenses will be handed over to Chrissie. No matter whether the ball is in his hands or not, you have to do it." Watch him and don't let him score in the way he's familiar with, this guy's shooting percentage is terrible."

In the last few attacks, the Lakers did not let Xie Chen take over the game, but wanted Mozgov to try.

Mozgov got the ball again, but he shot a lot but didn't score many goals all night. He had the ball in his hand, but it didn't attract the attention of the opponent players. Everyone still paid more attention to Xie Chen, who was running without the ball.

After Xie Chen got rid of it, he slid to the baseline. Mozgov held the ball with both hands and immediately moved the ball toward the basket. However, Mozgov just made a feint. He did not intend to pass it to Xie Chen. He used this trick to deceive After Bogut, Mozgov immediately took off and shot.

Hit the ball!

"Damn it!" Bogut cursed secretly. He knew that Mozgov had the ability to shoot from mid-range, but he didn't expect that Mozgov would dare to attack on his own at such a critical moment.

"It seems that he was not affected by the bad touch before, but Xie Lai will definitely do the next attack." Carlisle was also a little unexpected. He had no idea that Xie Chen was testing Mozgov.

The Lakers attacked again, and Mozgov once again received Xie Chen's pass, and then turned around and shot!

The ball went in again!

"What?" The Mavericks were a little confused. The two most critical attacks were all made by Mozgov? Did he decide the game?

"Hahaha, after a hard night, I finally made the last two goals." Mozgov smiled and stepped forward to high-five Xie Chen.

Xie Chen was also very happy: "These two goals are enough to offset all the missed shots before."

Overall, Mozgov did not perform well tonight, but fortunately his opponent's performance was also very poor. In addition, Mozgov scored the last two key goals to help the team win another game. , continue to hold the No. 1 spot in the Western Conference.

Winning the past few games has been guaranteed by Xie Chen's high scoring. This time, it is really rare to win without Xie Chen scoring more than 30 points, but people are beginning to doubt that the Lakers can continue to be so lucky. ?

Thanks for the reward for watching the original version when you have no money, dragging the crazy young man, and allowing the world to be catastrophic!
