I'm Really Playing Basketball Chapter 286

Chapter 288 You Almost Disbanded Us

Beijing time, June 4, 2004, the entire land of China was perplexed with a strong atmosphere of regret on this day.

At this time last year, the whole of China was immersed in the festive atmosphere of Chen Xiao leading the Nets to the finals. The rookie season brought the New Jersey Nets to a record of 72 wins and 10 losses in the regular season, and even more so in the playoffs. 12 consecutive victories in the east all the way.

In the All-Star Game, he won the first MVP in Chinese history, the All-Star MVP, and the regular season was the first NBA game in the history of Chinese basketball, the best rookie.

And this kind of celebration continued until a week later. Chen Xiao successfully led the Nets to the NBA championship, and he was crowned FMVP, becoming the most successful rookie in NBA history in one fell swoop.

So, at this time last year, it was really a national celebration.

Chen Xiao has also become one of the people who affect the emotions of the whole Chinese land since last year.

After experiencing the joy of last year, Chen Xiao's performance in the Cavaliers is still wonderful enough this year.

The Nets, the strongest team in the history of the Black Eight.

Revenge for Wade Yao Ming, the super defensive team, the Pistons.

took a team that was thought to be unlikely to make the playoffs and eventually reached the Eastern Conference Finals.

When Chen Xiao led the Cavaliers to the Eastern Conference Finals, no matter what the American media experts thought.

In China, all Chinese people believe that Chen Xiao can once again create miracles and once again make the whole China crazy.

In fact, during the 13 days from May 23 to June 4 (Beijing time), China Land indeed fell into madness because of Chen Xiao.

In the first game of the Eastern Conference between the Cavaliers and the Magic, the Cavaliers defeated the more powerful Magic 104 to 100 in the Magic's away game.

In this game, the Cavaliers were always behind in the first three quarters after the start of the game. In the fourth quarter, Chen Xiao made 6 of 7 3-pointers in a single quarter, and scored 26 points on 9 of 12 in a single quarter, leading the Cavaliers to complete the reversal in one fell swoop. .

In this round of the series between the Cavaliers and the Magic, the two sides have laid so much in the early stage.

The victory in the first game is extremely important.

Especially for the young Cavaliers, if the first game is won, it will bring great confidence to the Cavaliers.

Finally, with Chen Xiao's crazy performance in the fourth quarter, the Cavaliers took the lead.

And the Cavaliers' first move is not only to bring great confidence to the Cavaliers' young players.

also brought great confidence to Chinese fans.

In this game, 18 of 30 shots, 11 of 18 three-pointers, 6 of 7 free throws, 53 points, 8 rebounds, 7 assists, 2 steals and 2 blocks from Chen Xiao gave them a huge fantasy.

The Cavaliers can beat the Magic in this series!

Chen Xiao can win the championship again, and can be crowned Fmvp again!

After Chen Xiao led the Cavaliers to win G1, whether it was CCTV or other Chinese media, Chen Xiao could once again create a domestic atmosphere in the direction of success this season.

This cannot be blamed on CCTV and other national media.

In history, when Yao never broke through the first round, he was a favorite to win every year. Chen Xiao has already taken the Cavaliers to win an Eastern Conference Finals, and he is still away. It's not going to be blown, then when will he be blown up? ?

So, all China is waiting for the Cavaliers and Magic G2, as long as the Cavaliers can win another game away, then the Cavaliers will lay the foundation for reaching the finals.

In this game, the performance of the Cavaliers players did not disappoint them. Because of the victory of the previous game, the morale of the Cavaliers players in this game was like a rainbow. As soon as the game opened, the decline of the previous game was swept away. The game has been In the third quarter, the stronger Magic team slowly gained the advantage of the game.

Just when the Chinese audience felt that the Cavaliers might have to hang out in this game, Chen Xiao once again stood up in the fourth quarter. Although Chen Xiao in this game was not as crazy as the previous one in the fourth quarter, he was in a single quarter. He scored 5 of 7 three-pointers, 7 of 12 in a single quarter, and scored 22 points again in the entire quarter.

At the same time, Chen Xiao made 17 of 32, 9 of 19 three-pointers, 7 of 10 free throws, and scored 50 points, 10 rebounds, 6 assists, 1 steal and 3 blocks in the game.

Finally, the Cavaliers defeated the Magic once again on the away game.

And Chen Xiao himself became the first player in NBA history to score 50+ back-to-back away.

At the same time, after the end of this game, Chen Xiao's total points in the playoffs career reached 1016 points, becoming the youngest gentleman with 1,000 points in the playoffs in NBA history.

For a time, the entire Cleveland and even the entire China went crazy.

After the Cavaliers defeated the Magic in an away game.

The Chinese fans who are so far away can see on TV that the Magic team is almost panicked.

Maddie, the leading perimeter player of the Magic, had already covered his face at the end of the second game. I don't know if I cried or not. Anyway, the whole person was frustrated.

And the head coach of the Magic, Dougrives, at the end of the second game, even knelt on one knee with lost eyesight. He didn't know what he was thinking with his mouth wide open, his eyes wide open, and the whole person It's all silly.

The other Magic players, except Duncan, all squatted on the ground. Everyone's eyes were on the Cavaliers' No. 24 who had scored 50+ in two consecutive games, with all expressions on their faces. It was the look of awe and fear.

And Duncan...

Well, Duncan is a bit special, standing silently behind Ginobili, who is already dumbfounded, and McGrady, who is squatting on the ground and hiding his face, gently stroking a bitten egg with both hands.

In short, although the Magic and Duncan have not been beaten down, but to be honest.

After the game ended, really, not only in China, but even in the United States, many people were exclaiming that the magic was defeated by Chen Xiao.

The magic is about to lose!

No kidding, many people in the United States are already standing on the rooftop at this time and preparing to jump off.

In his home court, he lost all of them directly, and Chen Xiao played so crazy in the first two games. When Duncan was playing center, he kept pulling out. Whether it was playing Gooden or McGrady, he almost relied on his own. With one's own power, the entire forward line of the Magic was destroyed.

further unbalanced the mentality of the Magic team except Duncan.

Chen Xiao's two games are the same as Iverson's G1 game against the Lakers in the 2001 Finals.

If Iverson could play two games like G1 in the finals that year, to be reasonable, the mentality of the Lakers might collapse.

Chen Xiao did what Iverson did not do.

Just when the whole world felt that Chen Xiao and the Cavaliers were about to create miracles...

On May 26, 2004, the Magic, which had been forced to the precipice by Chen Xiao, was finally forced to make adjustments in the lineup.

Putting Duncan in the center position is no longer enough.

In G3 of the Magic and the Cavaliers, the Magic brought the team's outstanding backup center Zazapachulia to the starting position as the team's starting center, while Duncan returned to the power forward position. With the starting lineup of Mike Miller, McGrady and Parker.

From the beginning of this game, the Magic finally put Duncan in front of Chen Xiao.

From the beginning of this game, the whole world has seen the most terrifying group of power forwards in NBA history.

At the same time, from the beginning of this game, the world finally saw once again Duncan, the strongest player who played a quadruple-double with the OK Lakers last season.

In G3, under Duncan's defense, Chen Xiao did not have the magic of the previous two games, but his performance was still very good. The game was 11 of 23 shots, 3 of 8 three-pointers, 8 of 9 free throws, 33 points, 10 rebounds and 6 assists. 3 steals and 3 blocks.

Opposite Duncan was 11 of 20, 11 of 15 free throws, 33 points, 18 rebounds, 6 assists, 3 steals and 5 blocks.

In the end, the Magic defeated the Cavaliers 101-96 and played a big score of 1-2 on the road.

Under the leadership of Duncan, the Magic player who was on the verge of collapse, stood still.

In G4, Duncan, who played against Chen Xiao, is more familiar with Chen Xiao. In the face of Duncan's defense, Chen Xiao is almost inactive in the interior, and Chen Xiao, who doesn't know how to make hooks, and who doesn't know how to make footsteps. In this game, he made a crazy three-pointer from the outside. The game was 12 of 27, 5 of 16 three-pointers, 2 of 2 free throws, 31 points, 15 rebounds, 4 assists, 1 steal and 1 block.

Although the hit rate is not that high, the data and performance are still extremely good.

On the other hand, Duncan was 7 of 14, with 11 of 14 free throws, 25 points, 16 rebounds, 8 assists, 1 steal and 3 blocks.

From this game, we can see how different Chen Xiao and Duncan's styles are.

Duncan is inside and Chen Xiao is outside. Duncan's offense is more on the basket, more stable and more efficient. Chen Xiao's offensive efficiency is slightly lower.

In the end, the Magic defeated the Cavaliers again 94-89.

In G5, the third match between Chen Xiao and Duncan's super power forwards. In this game, Duncan became more familiar with Chen Xiao. Not only did the inside line not give Chen Xiao any offensive opportunities, even in this game, Duncan also followed Chen Xiao. Outside the three-point line, Chen Xiao scored the lowest points in the series, 9 of 21, 3 of 7 three-pointers, 5 of 6 free throws, 26 points, 12 rebounds, 6 assists, 2 steals and 3 blocks.

This data is actually still beautiful, not only the data, but the performance is equally wonderful.

In this game, Chen Xiao made 9 shots. For each of the gods, two three-pointers were ultrlong three-pointers.

The remaining 6 two-point shots were all of the extreme Joe's backwards.

It can be said that in this game, Duncan served as the background board of Chen Xiao on the offensive end N times.

As for Duncan, in this game, Duncan is still unpretentious.

10 of 15 shots, 8 of 13 free throws, 28 points, 17 rebounds, 3 assists, 1 steal and 6 blocks in the game.

It can be seen that Chen Xiao basically couldn't prevent Duncan's offense from the basket.

After all, this is the third direct confrontation between Chen Xiao and Duncan. Duncan defended better than the previous one, and Chen Xiao defended Duncan in the same way every game.

And this is where Duncan returned to the power forward position, where the Cavaliers suffered extremely.

Chen Xiao's offense can be greatly restricted by Duncan, and Duncan's offense, Chen Xiao basically can't help it.

98 to 89!

After playing G5, the Cavaliers, which had a 2-0 lead, are already behind 2-3.

As for G6, this game is definitely the most intense game of this series. Facing Duncan's increasingly strict defense against himself, Chen Xiao was exhausting through running and pick-and-rolls from outside the three-point line. With a lot of physical strength, he also got more opportunities to shoot from the three-point line than in the previous game. In this game, Chen Xiao made 12 of 27, 7 of 16 three-pointers, 3 of 4 free throws, 34 points and 10 rebounds. 5 assists, 1 steal and 2 blocks.

Not only did the score once again break through to 30+, but Chen Xiao also hit the final lore in this game.

The opposite Duncan is still so unpretentious, 9 of 17 in the game, 9 of 11 free throws, 27 points, 18 rebounds, 4 assists, 2 steals and 5 blocks.

is still a very good performance.

Moreover, before Chen Xiao hit the lore three-pointer.

Duncan's 45-degree rebound at the basket has already beaten the Cavaliers.

This is a horror game of Duncan's lore and Chen Xiao's anti-lore.

G6, relying on Chen Xiao's lore, the Cavaliers defeated the Magic 95-94. In the end, this round of the series was dragged into the terrifying tie-break.

In G7, in this game, Chen Xiao once again showed the true qualities of his key man. In this game, Chen Xiao's shooting rate has risen across the board. The game was 12 of 23, 4 of 10 three-pointers, and 9 free throws. In 7, 35 points, 11 rebounds, 7 assists, 2 steals, and 2 blocks, both on offensive and defensive end, the performance is very good.

Not only was a good three-pointer. At the same time, Chen Xiao constantly attacked Duncan, caused damage, and caused great trouble to Duncan when he was extremely passive in the inside attack.

At the end of the game, Zazapachulia fouled six times and Duncan had already fouled five times.

At the same time, the crazy impact of Chen Xiao in this game also created a lot of blocking opportunities for Duncan.

In this game, Duncan sent 9 blocks in a single game, of which 5 were by Chen Xiao and 3 by Xiao Zhan.

In this game, Duncan made 9 of 18 free throws, 5 of 7 free throws, 23 points, 21 rebounds, 11 assists, 1 steal and 9 blocks in the game, almost hitting a quadruple-double again!

In the end, Chen Xiao and Xiao Zhan were almost crazy in this game. In the end, the Cavaliers lost the game 97-102 away.

4 to 3!

The Magic's huge disadvantage of lagging behind 0 to 2 at home is almost about to collapse. Under Duncan's leadership, the young Cavaliers finally reversed and reached the finals.

At the end of this round of the series, even Magic fans with extremely strange characters gave Chen Xiao, James and the Cavaliers players applause at the end of the G7 game.

Under the leadership of Magic players such as Duncan, McGrady, Mike Miller, Parker, Ginobili, Gooden, Pachulia, Robert Horry and others.

Only, in the face of such applause and praise, the Chinese audience on the other side of the ocean sighed.

On the other hand, Chen Xiao and James at the Orlando game were biting on their sweat-soaked jerseys.

Unwilling!

Still unwilling!

Xiao Zhan is not reconciled, how outstanding Chen Xiao's performance in this round of the series!

As long as he is a little bit stronger, the Cavaliers can enter the finals.

In this round of the series, under McGrady's defense, James averaged 22 shots per game, hits 8 goals per game, averaged 21.5 points, 7 rebounds, 9.8 assists, 1 steal and 1 block per game. From a statistical point of view, it's pretty. However, this In the round of the series, James's shooting percentage was less than 40%, and his three-point shooting percentage was only 18%. Even with his fairly stable free throw percentage, this round of the series has become unstable, less than 70%.

On the other side of the series, McGrady averaged 21 of 21, averaged 26 points, 7 rebounds, 7 assists, 1 steal and 1 block per game. He shot 43% from the field and played against Cavaliers like Jen and Barnes Dalius Myers. Defensively, McGrady's shooting percentage is actually not high, especially the three-pointer shooting rate, which is only 25%. The Cavaliers' young defensive players have very large restrictions on McGrady's dry draft.

but…

The current McGrady, on offense, is not comparable to Xiao Zhan.

Chen Xiao was able to shoot 49.5% in this round of the series, averaged 37.5 points, 10.9 rebounds, 5.9 assists, 1.7 steals and 2.3 blocks per game. This is an extremely terrifying performance in the series, especially in the first two games with 50+, which is terrifying enough to play. Most of the teams in the league collapsed.

If it's not for magic, Duncan...

In this series, Duncan's data is 50.5% shooting, averaging 25 points, 18 rebounds, 6.5 assists, 1.4 steals, and 5.5 blocks per game.

Although Duncan's scoring is not as scary as Chen Xiao, but Duncan's defense in this round of series is as scary as Chen Xiao's score.

So that at the end of the G7 game, TNT's live commentator Barkley said directly that Chen Xiao and Duncan played the best power forward performance in history.

"In the history of the NBA, apart from Duncan who played the Lakers last season, no power forward has played this series like Wonder Boy and Duncan. This is the greatest power forward matchup performance in NBA history!"

"Wonder Kid is the most perfect power forward in history. He has almost no shortcomings, and Duncan is the strongest power forward in history!"

The strongest power forward in history and the most perfect power forward in history.

Finally, the strongest power forward in history brought his team to the promotion.

Of course, this does not mean that the strongest in history has defeated the most perfect in history.

Chen Xiao and Duncan in this round of the series, in terms of data and performance, it is difficult to say which one is better.

It depends on what you think.

However, the Magic are definitely the best team.

Now McGrady is better than James.

The current role players such as Ginobili, Parker, Mike Miller, Gooden, Pachulia, and Robert Horry are also better than the Cavaliers' role players.

If Chen Xiao hadn't thrown all the scoring experience cards in this round of the series, it would be impossible for the two teams in this round of the series to reach the seventh game.

Maybe there are really five games, up to six games, or even four games, and this round of the series is over.

And this is where Chen Xiao is unwilling.

In the first two games of this series, Chen Xiao threw 12 scoring experience cards.

50+ in both games, almost knocking down the Magic.

Almost, except for Duncan, Chen Xiao can feel after G2 that the Magic really collapsed.

At the end of G2, Chen Xiao felt that his strategy had been successful.

Hold the scoring experience card and throw it out like a bomb, stun the magic, and then make it to the finals.

Seriously, Chen Xiao also knows the gap between the knight and the magic.

Chen Xiao also knew that the Cavaliers needed a miracle to defeat the Magic.

Chen Xiao also knows that if his 12 scoring experience cards are thrown out, it is very likely that he will be in trouble.

However, when you lead the team to the Eastern Conference Finals, it is difficult for you to give up the chance to enter the Finals.

For this opportunity, Chen Xiao really gave everything.

"I, really did everything..."

Finally, Chen Xiao, who was biting the jersey, put down the jersey, raised his head and closed his eyes and sighed.

And after hearing Chen Xiao's sigh, Xiao Zhan and the Cavaliers players next to him, all of their fists were clenched tightly.

Even, Xiao Mo, who was brought out by Chen Xiao and respected by Chen Xiao, was like a god. Barnes and Korver finally did not get stunned. With a wow, he still cried out in tears.

Watching Chen Xiao hug and comfort the crying Cavaliers players on TV, Cleveland fans and Chinese fans in front of the TV, so much so that many American fans are sorry for this group of young people.

"This summer, under the leadership of Wonder Boy, staged a youth storm that swept across the United States and shocked the world. Although the storm was extinguished, this group of Cleveland Youth Guards won the respect of everyone! "

"Wonder Boy has shown the world the potential of him and this Cavaliers!"

Seriously, for the American media who believes in the spirit of the winner is king, it is really very rare for Barkley and Kenny Smith to be so unstepped in this Cavaliers losing series game, and they are still holding them.

It can only be said that although the Cavaliers lost this round of the series, Chen Xiao has indeed won the respect of everyone. At the very least, the position of the top five forwards must be firmly secured.

Even, among the five major forwards, perhaps second only to Duncan, or not inferior to Duncan, it is a very special existence.

In Orlando, after Chen Xiao comforted his Cavaliers teammates, he took his teammates to thank the Magic fans who gave them applause at the scene.

And after thanking the Magic fans, the Magic players also came to hug the Cavaliers one by one.

Mainly Chen Xiao.

Magic has many good friends of Chen Xiao.

Maddy, Ginobili, etc. UU reading www. uukanshu. com

At the same time, Magic's head coach Dogrives is Chen Xiao's elder brother.

After embracing other Magic players, finally, this round of the series, facing him, the next five games made him extremely uncomfortable defensively, and he attacked Duncan, who was extremely painful, and stood in front of him.

Looking at Duncan standing in front of him, Chen Xiao's face was complicated.

In his career, Duncan is the only player he won without using a plug-in.

Maybe, it's because the number of plug-ins is not enough, but...

In the end, Chen Xiao shook his head gently in his heart.

"Chen, you played a great series."

"So are you, Tim."

After the two embraced, Duncan looked at Chen Xiao, was silent for a while, and said a famous NBA quote in later generations.

"Chen, you almost broke us up."
