Super All-around Point Guard

If the first half was dominated by the Toronto Raptors, then in the second half the Raptors were led by the Lakers. Xie Chen's 360-degree turning dunk in the first half really played a role in boosting morale. Lakers players will feel that with such an omnipotent player in the team, what opponent cannot be defeated?

However, it is not easy to beat the Raptors. The two sides did not decide the winner until the last moment. In the last critical time, Ingram and Randle made fatal mistakes, and everyone else also missed open shots. The Lakers' The problems were still obvious, but no matter what, they ended up winning ten games in a row.

"Haha, I didn't expect that our Lakers team has won ten consecutive games. Unfortunately, the next opponent is the Golden State Warriors. I don't know if the winning streak will be broken."

"Now we are the only number one in the Western Conference. Even if we lose to the Warriors in the next game, we will still be tied with the Warriors for first place in the Western Conference. In the Western Conference, we are still the two strongest teams. I am very optimistic about the Lakers' prospects in the playoffs. Watch carefully!"

"Xie has performed wonderfully in each of these two games. The next one when we meet our old rival Stephen Curry will definitely be even more exciting. I can't wait to watch their game!"

After the game, all the spectators discussed the Lakers' next opponent, the Golden State Warriors, and all agreed that it would be a difficult game. After all, the Warriors are the only opponent that has defeated the Lakers this season. However, Now the Lakers are on a winning streak, Ingram has also grown compared to last time, and Xie Chen seems to have more new abilities than last time. This time he meets the Warriors again and is at home. I am afraid it will not be as easy as last time. We lost, but regardless of winning or losing, everyone agreed that it would be an absolutely wonderful game!

The Warriors and Lakers have games today. The Lakers won today, and so did the Warriors. Now they have only lost two games and are ranked second in the Western Conference. They will play the Lakers in the next game. If they beat the Lakers again, both sides will lose. After two games, the Warriors naturally reached the top spot in the Western Conference again.

After the Warriors won the game, as soon as he returned to the locker room, Dreaming Green excitedly took his phone and posted something on Twitter: "I'm going to Los Angeles to play a game tomorrow. I'm very happy that we're back to No. 1 in the Western Conference. !Thank you to all the fans who support the Golden State Warriors and let us welcome that moment together!"

Dream Green's words clearly looked down on the Lakers and believed that the Warriors could definitely beat the Lakers.

Green's content quickly spread in the circle, and the Lakers were the first to learn of Green's lies.

"Draymond doesn't seem to regard us as an opponent at all. Does this guy think he has won the game before the game has even been played?!" Ci Shiping was obviously unhappy with Green's remarks and immediately forwarded a response: "Want to win the Western Conference No. 1 spot?" One? In L.A., you only get a third loss!"

Ci Shiping told Xie Chen about Green. Naturally, Xie Chen was not happy, but he did not react as violently as Ci Shiping did. He also never thought about having a verbal spat with the Warriors on an online social platform. His strength This is the last word. He knows that the game against the Warriors is not easy. After all, the Warriors have defeated the Lakers once, and it was a big victory. With Xie Chen's current strength, it would not be surprising even if he loses to the Warriors again.

Later, Xie Chen found Brandon Ingram who was practicing alone in the training hall.

Xie Chen watched Ingram shoot a few three-pointers and asked from behind: "Why are you still practicing? Aren't you tired after the game?"

Today's game against the Raptors was stalemate until the final moment. Ingram's physical strength could not hold on as early as the last quarter of the game.

Ingram turned around and saw Xie Chen, unconsciously scratched his hair and said: "Last time we played against the Warriors, I didn't complete the task you gave me. I hope I can do it this time against the Warriors. "

Xie Chen was also very pleased to see Ingram being so motivated. Since his last defeat to the Warriors, Ingram's training intensity has gone up a level. He has become harder and harder, fearing that he will be delayed in the playoffs. Back off, but the hard work these days can't be reflected in such a short period of time. Until today's game against the Raptors, frankly speaking, Ingram is still not a strong helper for Xie Chen, and his progress is very slow. , but occasionally can perform well.

Xie Chen said to Ingram: "If you want to beat the Warriors, it's not as simple as shooting a few more open three-pointers. The last game exposed many of your shortcomings. I think they will attack these weaknesses of yours next time." In this game against the Warriors, I prefer you to play simpler and even have a single attack method. Do you have your best attack method? If not, then practice one specifically. Do you have your best three-point shooting method? Point? Practice that position more especially."

Rather than letting Ingram spend time on overall improvement, it is better to let him have a weapon that he is good at and only practice one move. Although it is easier to be marked, it is worse than not being strong at anything.

After Ingram took the ball and changed directions, he hit a ball and said: "I quite like scoring goals like this."

Xie Chen nodded: "Then we will keep playing like this in the next game."

"Keep playing like this? Then KD will guess in advance that I will shoot." Ingram asked.

Xie Chen said: "If you guessed it, then lean back and use this move to disgust him for a while."

"Oh..." Ingram was wondering whether Xie Chen's proposal was really for his own good or was it just to disgust Durant?

Xie Chen and Ingram sat down, and the two recalled the last scene against the Warriors. Xie Chen said to Ingram: "The Warriors are not an invincible team. They have lost two games this season, which has been proved. They can be defeated. Of course, in the game against the Warriors, the outcome is not important. The important thing is to understand the opponent and gain experience in the game against them and find a way to defeat them. In the last game, your defense was very bad, whether it was Defending Klay Thompson or Kevin Durant does not limit them in the slightest. I know that one of them is a guy who can score 37 points in a single quarter, and the other is an unsolvable scoring champion. The requirements for you may be too high, Klay You don’t need to take Thompson too seriously, because when he feels hot, I can switch to guard him. I want you to spend all your energy on learning how to defend Kevin Durant. I can reluctantly switch to guard Klay. Thompson, but for KD, especially his shooting, I really can't do anything, and I can only rely on you."

There is a huge difference in height between Kevin Durant and Xie Chen. Although Xie Chen is the best defensive player in the league, no matter how versatile he is and how good he is in defense, he cannot prevent Durant's shots. No one can. Defeatable, but Ingram is the one with the best chance.

Ingram is young and energetic. In addition to not being as experienced as Durant, his speed can definitely keep up. Ingram is nearly 2.08 meters tall and has a wingspan of 2.21 meters. Like Durant, he is tall and has long arms. , Generally speaking, it is difficult for someone who is not as tall as Durant to interfere with Durant's shooting, but Ingram, who has an extraordinary wingspan, has this opportunity to interfere with his opponent, which is at least greater than Xie Chen or others. many.

What Xie Chen is most worried about is Durant's explosion on the court. Once he hits the basket one after another, Xie Chen can only watch helplessly. And if Stephen Curry or Klay Thompson wants to explode, how much can Xie Chen rely on? Your own abilities and knowledge of them prevent disruption.

For a team with superstars, as long as you are able to prevent their continuous bursts of scoring, there is hope of winning the game.

Compared with the Lakers' intense preparations, the Warriors seem a bit relaxed.

After arriving in Los Angeles, during training, everyone was talking and laughing, as if there was really no suspense about this victory.

After Dreamcatcher Green hit a three-pointer, he smiled and said: "Xie just has the ability to lay up with his left hand. There is nothing terrible about it. Isn't it the same whether it is left or right? It's not too much." Show me a hand, right?”

Stephen Curry nodded: "That's right. I don't care much about the ability of his left hand. In fact, I have also practiced with my left hand, but I don't use it very much. In real high-level competitions, you still have to use the most accustomed method." He scores with that hand, so I think even in this game, he won’t use his left hand too much, or even at all.”

Kevin Durant said: "I think we need to be careful about his defense. I watched his past few games and I feel that his defense has become stronger again."

"Really? Why don't I think so?" Dream Green said with disdain. He was also on the defensive team last season and was a strong contender for the best defensive player, so he disdained Xie Chen.

Regarding this game, Green is not thinking about winning or losing. He believes that the Warriors will definitely win. What he cares about is how to win to make it more enjoyable.

Green suddenly asked everyone: "Hey guys, I think it will be no problem to beat the Lakers in this game. What I want to say is, can we win this game? Let them lose even more ugly. a little?"

When everyone heard what Green said, did he mean to treat Xie Chenjiao as a man? They all lowered their heads. It was Xie Chen who always bullied others. Who could take advantage of Xie Chen?

Every Warriors player wanted to do this, but no one had the confidence to stand up and speak. Stephen Curry wanted to teach Xie Chen a lesson from his first NBA debut, but unfortunately he failed to teach him a lesson and instead became very angry. Kevin Du Lant didn't take any advantage of Xie Chen, and Livingston also sighed. His best back-up shot was simply not worth mentioning in front of Xie Chen.

"Why...no one is talking?" Dream Chasing Green was also most afraid of the sudden silence. He found that no one gave a practical idea. Could it be that no one could really embarrass Xie Chen?

Klay Thompson said: "You also saw it in the last match. We won the game, but the win was not good-looking. You were dunked by Xie Qi. Everyone knows Xie's personality and ability. Although we all know I hate him very much, but I have to admit that none of us can win and make him uncomfortable."

Curry also agreed: "Klay is right, I just thought of a way that is not feasible at all."

"Oh? What is it? Tell me and listen?" Dream Chaser Green asked with interest.

Curry asked everyone: "When is Xie most impatient?"

Thompson said: "When we are behind by a big score."

Kevin Durant said: "When you miss consecutive shots."

Green hit the nail on the head: "When you see us showing off!"

Curry gave Green a thumbs up and said: "Yes, every time we play against him, we inevitably do various celebrations on the court. When he sees us showing off on the court, he is the most impatient. When he did it, he couldn't bear it for a second and wanted to return it in an even more pretentious way. If we could stop him from showing off, what would happen if we could stop him?"

"Hahaha, then he must be suffocated to death!" Dream Chaser Green said with a smile.

"But, how to stop him? His personal abilities are too comprehensive. Just talking about three-point shooting, he can pull up directly in front of you, or he can shoot far away from the three-point line, and his shooting percentage is very high. " Klay Thompson said.

Curry said: "Yes, he will definitely be able to break through our defense, successfully hit a three-pointer and then respond to us in a show-off way. The only thing we can do to stop him is to prevent the basketball from falling when he turns around to celebrate in advance. Get into the basket.”

"Can you stop a basketball from entering the net?" Livingston felt that he was a bit young and couldn't understand it at all.

Curry smiled: "Okay, can't the player under the basket take the ball away in advance?"

Dreaming Green said in surprise: "You mean interfering with the ball? Isn't this giving Xie points in vain? This is indeed an unfeasible method. What if he misses the shot? On the contrary, I let him score steadily. ball."

Everyone sweated wildly, but Durant said: "Have you noticed that whenever Xie does an early celebration, he doesn't miss a single three-pointer? He must be extremely confident to do this action, so It was also a goal scored by him. Instead of letting him make the shot and pretending to succeed, it would be better to intercept the basketball in advance. At least the atmosphere at the scene would be very different."

Green still felt a little unreliable, so he asked again: "Is there no other way besides this?"

Everyone looked at each other and couldn't think of any strategy that could embarrass or even make Xie Chen uncomfortable. Only then did everyone sigh that Xie Chen was such an all-around player.

Another day passed, at the Staples Center Arena, the Lakers ushered in their biggest opponent this season, the super team with the most giants, the Golden State Warriors!

The tickets for this game can be said to be worth thousands of gold, and many celebrities put down their work and came to watch the game. Kobe Bryant also appeared at the scene. In addition to Kobe, there was also a well-known star, and He is currently on active duty. He is Kyrie Irving of the Cavaliers. Irving happened to have a slight injury in the past two days and was unable to play the game. Unexpectedly, he secretly flew to Los Angeles to watch the game. This shows how attractive this game is!
