Super all-around point guard

Chapter 406 Ci Shiping Classic Pants Off!
Porzingis played the best game of his career, with mid-range shots, dunks, response and defense. I remember that when the Knicks selected him in the draft, many fans were disappointed. There was even a child who covered his head with his hands and couldn’t believe that the Knicks chose him. People were still worried that he was too thin as an insider. Facts have proved that he still has a strong side.

Since the regular season, Porzingis has surpassed James and dunked almost all the top power forwards in the league. After dunking Love and dunking Aldridge, he barely dunked the No. [-] pick Towns just now. Many people are surprised that he can do such a thing.

Maybe it was because too many people looked down on him, so Porzingis held his breath in his heart and vowed to prove his worth and Phil's vision. Xie Chen admired him very much, but because Porzingis is not very talkative, the two have not had too in-depth communication so far.

What Xie Chen needs is a teammate who can play super powerful this season, because he will compete for the championship this season, so he feels that Porzingis, a guy who needs to grow up, can't bring much help to Xie Chen. If Porzingis is really that strong, perhaps, it will really be a surprise.

The Knicks played against the Timberwolves can be said to be a slam dunk, leading by nearly 20 points in three quarters. At this time, Mr. Ci Shiping, who hadn't appeared on the field for a long time, finally tightened his shorts and appeared on the stage.

At the scene, he still gave him a lot of applause.

Ci Shiping stretched out his hand and smiled to respond to the fans. He loves New York so much, and loves the current team lineup too much. Especially when he is teammate with Xie Chen for the first time, he has a lot of feelings. Xie Chen’s performance just now shocked Ci Shiping. Although he has known Xie Chen’s strength for a long time, as a teammate, he always has a different feeling.

"This team can reach the Eastern Conference Finals!" Ci Shiping secretly thought.

However, because Xie Chen had to practice with Xie Chen every night, and he still played with him, Ci Shiping was surprised that Xie Chen's strength was increasing day by day, causing Ci Shiping to have some muscle soreness, and the worst thing was sleepiness. The excitement of playing for the first time could not cover up the exhaustion.

People tend to become manic after they don’t get enough sleep, let alone a guy like Ci Shiping who was sent to a rehabilitation center for treatment as a minor. Therefore, when defending, Ci Shiping made a big move. When grabbing a rebound, he put his arm on the rookie Downs.

But Downs became angry, and he spat trash talk at Ci Shiping. Seeing that even a rookie dared to provoke him, Ci Shiping became even more furious, and all his original manic mood immediately vented. Everyone saw that the scene seemed to be out of control, and Ci Shiping wanted to teach this rookie champion a lesson!

Ci Shiping wants to fight, who can stop it?Everyone had a bad premonition, but at this time, Xie Chen came up, just took a look at Ci Shiping, who was about to shake his fist, actually backed away!

"Just now... what's going on!" Wolf King Garnett also stepped forward, trying to persuade the fight, but Ci Shiping suddenly gave up by himself.

Garnett didn't understand, it seemed that Xie Chen gave Ci Shiping a glare, and Ci Shiping obediently admitted, this is simply amazing, who is Ci Shiping?When Ci Shiping was about to fight, Kobe always stood aside, one was too lazy to manage it, and the other was unable to control it, but why did Xie Chen make Ci Shiping so obedient?

Anthony and Fisher were also shocked. They knew Ci Shiping too well. Since joining the Knicks, Ci Shiping's behavior was too abnormal, too friendly and well-behaved. Just now, when they saw the familiar Ci Shiping, Xie Chen stared at him and disappeared.

Fisher thought to himself: "It can be seen that Xie Neng completely controls Ci Shiping, it is really incredible, if this is really the case, then it will be great for the team!"

An obedient beast is a great boon to any team.

Soon came the fourth quarter. This was a rare game in which the main Knicks did not play in the fourth quarter. The substitutes played very well. Ci Shiping did not get much playing time. It was not until the Knicks led by 30 points that Ci Shiping was sent back to the game.

Before Ci Shiping came on the court, seeing Towns still on the court, Xie Chen did not forget to tell or threaten him: "Don't fight, concentrate on playing."

Ci Shiping smiled and said: "I am such a friendly person, how could I beat someone? Don't worry."

Anthony next to him saw Ci Shiping's face smiling at Xie Chen, but he was still not used to it, so he bumped Xie Chen's shoulder: "Do you have something about him, share it with me."

After Ci Shiping came on the court, she got a lot of shooting opportunities, especially the three-pointers. Unfortunately, none of them hit. Although Ci Shiping has been trained, her level has dropped a lot, but Ci Shiping feels that she repeatedly misses because of being with Xie Chen.

As for Towns, Ci Shiping still didn't like it. Towns didn't give up the game and kept chasing points. In the blink of an eye, the point difference was recovered to 20 points.

Ci Shiping couldn't stand it any longer, and went to defend Towns himself. The Timberwolves sent the ball out of bounds, and Towns was about to catch the ball. Seeing Ci Shiping coming to defend him, Towns chuckled lightly: "Do you think you can stop me with your height? Listen, I will receive the ball at that position later, and then directly hit a three-pointer. If you have the ability, block me, or choose a malicious foul, but I think your boss will not be happy."

Towns also saw Xie Chen's majesty in the team. Although he didn't understand why, he still stimulated Ci Shiping. The anger in Ci Shiping's heart was so ironic by a first-year rookie!This guy is so flat!

However, Xie Chen has already promised not to use force, but Xie Chen holds Ci Shiping's biggest handle, and Ci Shiping dare not mess around.

"Do you think I can't stop you if I don't beat you? Little rookie!" Ci Shiping snorted coldly, he wanted to use another way to stop the champion, let him clearly understand what NBA is!

The Timberwolves are about to throw a sideline kick, and Towns has already stood in his position and stretched out his long arms. Ci Shiping is sticking in front of him, but due to the large difference in height, it looks very laborious.

Ci Shiping held Downs with his body, and Downs couldn't move, and he didn't want to go any further. Since his height was an absolute advantage, he directly signaled to his teammates to let him just pass the ball over like this. With Ci Shiping's current bounce, he couldn't stop passing the ball at this height.

The teammates didn't hesitate, and threw it directly in Downs' direction.

At this time, Ci Shiping suddenly said to Towns: "Welcome to the NBA."

Downs froze for a moment, and at the same time Ci Shiping was speaking, Ci Shiping's right hand moved underneath, and he even took off Downs' shorts!

Towns panicked like a little girl who was molested, how could he bother to catch the ball?Quickly covering the bottom with both hands, Ci Shiping has already intercepted the pass, and then, like a tank, pushed forward to the empty frontcourt and dunked successfully.

The audience laughed, and Xie Chen shook his head helplessly.

Ci Shiping was very excited. After scoring the goal, he kept waving his arms. Towns pulled up his pants and walked in front of the referee: "Is this considered a foul?"

The referee was also very embarrassed, Ci Shiping was too quick to see it!

In fact, this is already an old method of Ci Shiping. Ci Shiping once did this to Paul Pierce. When he was defending in the penalty area, he tore off Pierce’s shorts. Unexpectedly, many years later, this scene would appear again in the NBA. Presumably, if Ci Shiping hadn’t returned, such a scene might not be seen for many years.

Downs was no longer persistent, and asked to be replaced, so he couldn't play with these old hooligans anymore, it was too bad.

Xie Chen has also begun to fantasize about what kind of absurd scenario will be played when Ci Shiping defends James in the playoffs against the Cavaliers. I hope James can be mentally prepared...

The game ended without any suspense. The Knicks finally beat the Timberwolves by more than 30 points. Ci Shiping scored 7 points in the first game of his return. He was very satisfied. After the game, Xie Chen accepted the reporter's interview on the sidelines.

The reporter asked Xie Chen: "You only scored more than 20 points today, but you had 14 assists, and you didn't even take a single three-pointer. Can it be said that your style of play is completely different from last season, or from the Chris Xie we knew in the past?"

Just as Xie Chen was about to answer, he found that a mop had been dragged onto his feet. Just as he was about to wonder which unprofessional worker it was, he discovered that the person mopping the floor was Ci Shiping...

The reporter also saw Ci Shiping, laughed, and continued to pass the microphone to Xie Chen.

Xie Chen glanced at Ci Shiping, who was hard at work and stealing the spotlight, and replied with a smile, "You can't say that. My only goal is to win. As long as I can win, I can play whatever I want. Just like in today's game, I don't need to shoot so many three-pointers, and I don't need to take so many shots myself. I'm just trying to ensure victory, and I haven't deliberately changed my style of play."

The reporter continued to ask: "Then do you know that Stephen Curry's three-pointers are far ahead of you? And according to the current momentum, he may break your single-season three-pointer record."

"Of course I know this." Xie Chen also showed admiration, "Stephen Curry has gone crazy this season. He will break the record. I believe he can do it."

When the reporter heard that Xie Chen did this, it was obvious that he did not want to compete with Curry for the record of three-pointers made. No wonder, Curry is best at three-pointers, and only three-pointers, while Xie Chen has too many weapons, and he does not need to rely so much on long-range shots.

The reporter said: "The next game will be against the Warriors at home. They are the No. [-] team in the Western Conference. So far, they have not lost a game. Can you give them a loss?"

Xie Chen nodded confidently: "Of course, we will win, just wait and see."

……

Golden State Warriors training facility in Oakland, California.

On one side of the basketball court, Stephen Curry is occupying this half court alone, going back and forth for shooting training at various positions beyond the three-point line, tirelessly, even the training clothes are already soaked in sweat.

Stephen Curry is very focused, even on the training ground, Iguodala, Green, and Klay Thompson can all see that Curry is very serious and very concerned about the next game against the Knicks.

Last season, the Golden State Warriors had the best record in the league, but they lost to the Heat led by Xie Chen. Although they lost to the Heat, they didn’t feel revenge against the Heat now, and they had already defeated the Heat by 27 points. For Stephen Curry and the others, the real target of revenge was Xie Chen who had joined the Knicks!

"Finally met him, I beat James Harden, beat LeBron James, beat CP3 and KD Westbrook, only him."

The Warriors haven't lost a game until now, and Stephen Curry's performance is also shockingly good. He can make several three-pointers in every game. The host of ESPN said that his long-range shots have broken through the sky!

But Curry doesn't think he is the best long-range player in the league. The Chinese player named Chris Xie beat him!
Not only in the three-point contest, but also lost to Xie Chen in a single game, the number of three-point goals scored in the regular season, and the number of three-point goals scored in the playoffs!

This season seems to be able to beat Xie Chen easily, but that's because Xie Chen doesn't want to compare with him. If Xie Chen wants to compare, Curry feels that he may still lose to him!
Xie Chen left an indelible shadow in Curry's heart.

Just when everyone was training hard and preparing to fight Xie Chen, a person suddenly appeared in the arena, a familiar yet unfamiliar person, their head coach Steve Kerr.

Coach Kerr underwent two surgeries on his back during the offseason. He still felt uncomfortable until the start of the regular season, so he decided to take an indefinite vacation. The team has always been coached by Luke Walton.

Drummond Green was startled suddenly, and put down the basketball in his hand: "Coach, why are you here? Is your back better?"

Cole smiled and replied, "Thank you for your concern, it's much better."

Then, Cole walked slowly towards Stephen Curry, who was still unaware of his approach, watched Curry hit a three-pointer, and said: "Nice goal, Curry, your three-pointer has reached the highest level of human history."

Only then did Curry find out that Cole had come to the training hall, and he was very excited at the moment. Coach Cole smiled and said to Curry: "The next game against the Knicks, I will go to New York with you."

All the Warriors players were overjoyed after hearing this, and Walton stepped forward with a smile in his right hand. Curry said in surprise, "Coach, didn't you say that you won't come back until after the All-Star Weekend? Why..."

Coach Cole patted Curry on the shoulder and said with a smile: "You are the most incredible player I have ever coached. I have the responsibility to help you win the game you want to win. Do a good job in the next game. That person will never be able to stop you again!"
