Super all-around point guard

Chapter 1 My talent, born with it

On October 2014, 10, the Miami Heat played against the Golden State Warriors at American Airlines Arena.

As one of the most popular arenas in the league in the past four years, today's attendance rate is a bit appalling. At any rate, it is the first regular season game after nearly half a year. Compared with last season, the number of fans has plummeted. It is hard to find a ticket for the current situation, and people can't help but sigh.

Maybe the glory of Miami will never be there again, because the current No.1 in the league, the talented LeBron James, who is known as the little basketball emperor, ruthlessly abandoned the city and his cherished brother basketball.

"Thank you, it's time for you to play. This is the first official game of your NBA career. Starting today, every score and every assist you make will be recorded in NBA history. Don't be nervous, take out your usual It's fine." Head coach Erik Spoelstra patted the shoulder of a young man with an Asian face and told him with a smile.

This yellow man wearing the No. 0 jersey and rarely seen in the NBA is named Xie Chen, whose English name is ChrisTse, Chinese-American, his mother was born in mainland China, and his father was born in Hong Kong, so the English word for Xie is Cantonese. Pronounced TSE.

Xie Chen is an out-and-out rookie player in the NBA. He was selected by the Hornets at No. 24 in the first round this year, and was later traded to the Miami Heat. He is 193cm tall and weighs 85kg. In the NBA full of talents, such as insignificant gravel, can't attract the slightest attention.

Coach Spoelstra wore a tailor-made Armani suit and still liked to unbutton it to satisfy his habit of standing gracefully with his hands on his hips. When he looked at the newly signed Chinese point guard, he smiled warmly and seemed to have high hopes, but In fact, his future has already been judged.

Xie Chen got a lot of playing time in the preseason, but his performance was mediocre, far inferior to another new player in the team, Luol Deng.

Maybe this thin Chinese friend hit the so-called rookie wall, but the team president Pat Riley didn't think so. He told Coach Spoelstra bluntly last night: "Xie Chen can't give our team what we need. s help".

Coach Spoel can still recall Riley's disappointed expression when he said this. You know, it was his idea to sign Xie Chen!Is there a future for a player who even Riley has denied?

Oh no, he's a fortune teller.

"Coach, I will do my best." Xie Chen replied respectfully, and couldn't wait to walk to the court.

There was a burst of applause at the American Airlines Arena. Everyone knew that Miami's rookie was about to debut this year. They had high hopes for this Chinese point guard. After all, Jeremy Lin, who caused a "Linsanity" two years ago, was also a Chinese players.

Now that the game has entered the second quarter, the score between the Heat and the Warriors is 40:42. If the starting point guard Norris Cole was not injured in the game and the other PG Mario Chalmers was out of form, Xie Chen It won't be so early.

"One point is one point, one assist is two points, one rebound is three points, one steal is five points, one block is ten points, one turnover is two points."

After Xie Chen came on the field, he was not nervous or excited like other rookies, but muttered and didn't know what he was calculating.

"Hey, buddy, what is it? What are points?" The team boss Dwyane Wade kindly hugged Xie Chen over. , I thought he could go back to the "Flash" who supported a team by himself in 09, but he didn't expect things to backfire. Chris Bosh, who was often criticized as a "pseudo-giant" in the past few years, is in good form today .

"Oh, no...it's nothing." Xie Chenhan smiled, showing great respect and appreciation for Wade.

Wade comforted: "Don't be nervous, leave it to me when you don't know how to handle the ball. Spoelstra let you play instead of Mario. He wants to use your height advantage to put more pressure on Stephen Curry on defense. He is one of the best three-point shooters in the league, you have to play [-] points to defend, you know?"

Xie Chen nodded, and immediately became serious.Unexpectedly, in the first NBA show, the opponent is one of the best 1 positions in the league today. Of course, Xie Chen will defend Curry well, not only for the team, but also for what he is thinking about: points !

As the game resumed, the ABC commentator also gave a grand introduction to Xie Chen who had just appeared on the stage: "Oh, this point guard who just appeared on the stage is the rookie of the Heat this year, Chris Xie, with a height of 193" cm and weighs 85 kg, let's look forward to his debut performance, of course, don't have too much hope, hahaha..."

No one would expect Xie Chen's performance tonight, except himself and the Chinese compatriots on the other side of the ocean.He vowed to fight tonight to become famous and become the pride of the Chinese!
The Warriors had the ball, and Curry dribbled the ball forward in a leisurely manner. After halftime, he was about to set up a tactic, but Xie Chen, who was facing up, suddenly rushed over to grab the ball. Curry calmly played a behind-the-back Dribbling the ball failed to let Xie Chen's steal succeed.

Xie Chen's eyes lit up, staring at the basketball in Curry's hands, still trying to make a steal from time to time.

"Five points for a steal, ten points for a block, I want to steal, I want to block!"

Facing Xie Chen's harassing defense, Curry looked disdainful. Seeing that this first-year rookie wanted to play with him, he temporarily gave up his original tactics and planned to play one-on-one with Xie Chen.

Curry kept changing his dribble and moving his footsteps, luring Xie Chen to steal it. Xie Chen was really fooled. After the miss, Curry jumped up high and quickly shot a three-pointer. Xie Chen, who lost his position, jumped up again and raised his The arm was ready to block Curry, but unfortunately Curry had already shot the ball at this time, Xie Chen hit Curry's arm, Curry fell down, the referee whistled, and the basketball went into the net.

Three plus one!
"Oh, what is this stupid rookie doing? After losing his position, is it easy to cause fouls by rushing to block shots like this?"

Of course Xie Chen knew, but he really wanted to block a shot because he needed ten points, and one block was enough.In the face of the temptation of huge interests, no one can easily resist.

Curry stood up and smiled at Xie Chen: "Welcome to the NBA, rookie."

Xie Chen hates Curry's high-profile smile, but he has to admit the opponent's super strength. It is too difficult to get a block on the head of an All-Star player.

Curry missed the free throw. Bosh grabbed the rebound and passed it to Xie Chen. Xie Chen dribbled the ball across the half court without panic. Yes, Curry naturally cannot succeed easily.

Everyone on the Heat team took their positions. Bosh had already reached out for the ball inside. Curry also believed that Xie Chen must pass the ball when he came up, so the defense against Xie Chen was not so tight.

At this time, an unexpected scene happened. Xie Chen stood at the top of the arc and jumped up to shoot on the spot. After a lap, it still came out.

"What the hell is he doing!" Coach Spoel was already furious. First he gave the opponent a three-plus-one chance, and now he wasted another attack. This is simply the work of a cancer!
Curry smiled and stepped forward: "Rookie, you are too confident. Let me tell you something. Not everyone can be a shooter. It needs the inheritance from the previous generation! Obviously, you don't have it."

Curry's father was a famous marksman in the NBA in the 20s and 90s, and he was also the person Curry admired most.

The Warriors grabbed a rebound, but the fast break failed. Curry organized a half-court attack again. Maybe he felt that Xie Chen was too weak. He changed direction and directly broke through Xie Chen's defense. Wade, who came over, rewarded him with a big cap, and the basketball was kicked out of half court!
Xie Chen, who was standing outside the three-point line, was the closest player to the basketball. He rushed towards the basketball without hesitation, but facing him was an empty half court!

"GO! GO! GO!" Wade shouted joyfully, he didn't follow up quickly, and wanted Xie Chen to complete this attack without any difficulty alone.

"Not a single defensive player! Looks like our rookie is going to get his first NBA points."

"No suspense man, if it were me, I would have a beautiful dunk!"

Xie Chen got the ball and rushed to the basket, leaped high for a layup, and saw the basketball hit the backboard and then bounced to the basket, unexpectedly... it bounced out of the basket!

Wipe the board and make a layup?
The cute god Curry who didn't follow up opened his mouth wide.

Xie Chen picked up the rebound and hit it again before the ball entered the net.

The whole room burst into laughter.

"He was even more nervous than Yao Ming who made his debut that year. He actually used up two chances for this kind of ball. He shouldn't play in the NBA. Go home and play NBA2K games!"

"At least he got the data of one rebound, haha, you have to know how difficult it is for a point guard to get a rebound."

Xie Chen didn't pay attention to the taunts at the scene, and silently calculated in his heart: "Two points and one rebound, five points, five points away..."

The game continued. The Warriors center hit Bosh hard and missed the throw. The basketball bounced to the other side. This position happened to be the Heat player Luol Deng. Seeing that Luol Deng was about to grab the rebound, he was caught in the air. Life was in a collision, Luol Deng was just about to protest why the referee didn't blow the whistle, when he fixed his eyes and saw that it was his teammate, Xie Chen, who was grabbing the rebound with him!

"Oh my God, what is he doing? Rebounding his teammates?"

"Let us observe a moment of silence for Luol Dun."

After Xie Chen grabbed the rebound, he said to Luol Deng in shame, "I'm sorry, I didn't notice it was you."

"Uh...Okay." Luol Deng is a very simple and honest black man. He thought Xie Chen was too nervous for his first show, so he didn't bother with him.

Xie Chen was panting, eight points, only one goal or one assist away!

This time even God helped Xie Chen, Wade tricked the defender and slipped into the baseline, Xie Chen quickly made a high toss, and Wade made a layup.

At this time, Xie Chen's gloomy face finally showed a slight change.

"Basketball Almighty Copy System is activated, activation requires ten points, current points: ten points. Do you want to activate immediately?"

"Yes!"

Xie Chen, who was repeatedly provoked by Curry without any response, took the initiative to walk up to Curry and said, "Stephen, I want to tell you something too."

"What?" Stephen Curry looked puzzled.

"I don't need to inherit it." Xie Chen said: "Because my shooting talent is innate!"
