Super all-around point guard

Chapter 532: Fighting Bald Referee!
Wade's biggest advantage in defending Xie Chen is that he can judge the timing of shots against Xie Chen. In other words, it is better to defend Xie Chen's outside shots. If Xie Chen really wants to break through, Wade's speed still cannot keep up.

Wade is not afraid of Xie Chen breaking through his defense, because he has teammates behind him to help defend. Defending Xie Chen is not just Wade's task alone. This is true for any team. No. 1 in the league, how can it be limited by one person?
Wade had been sticking close to Xie Chen before, letting Xie Chen interfere with him to the greatest extent when he shot a three-pointer, but this time when he came to the top of the arc, Wade deliberately kept a distance, and didn't even reach out.

How could Xie Chen miss this golden opportunity?For Stephen Curry and Xie Chen, as long as there is a slight shot space, they will not hesitate to pull up and shoot the basket.

Xie Chen didn't have time to think about why Wade let him go. He only knew that the opportunity had arisen. He just needed to use Stephen Curry's three-point ability to make a shot. So, Xie Chen quickly shot a three-pointer!
Seeing this, Wade stretched out his hand to interfere, but obviously he couldn't interfere too much.

Xie Chen was confident and wanted to return to the defense, but found that the basketball bounced off the back edge of the basket!
"Didn't make it? Really unlucky!" Xie Chen didn't think too much about it. He just regarded the missed shot as bad luck. No matter how SS-level Curry's three-point ability is, no matter how good he is, his shooting percentage is not [-]%. It doesn't matter if he misses a shot occasionally.

However, Wade and Stephen Curry, who was watching the game in a different place at this time, were shocked at the same time!
Didn't even enter!

Stephen Curry was shocked for a moment. He had been wondering what kind of connection Xie Chen had with him. Although he found it absurd, he also looked forward to seeing Xie Chen's performance at the top of the arc. Why didn't he make it?Did he also waste training at this position in the last season?Like yourself, switch to training longer three-pointers?

After seeing Xie Chen's miss, Wade seemed to further verify his guess, that is, Xie Chen's three-point ability is exactly the same as Curry's three-point ability!
"Xie is simply a copy of Stephen Curry! Why is that? Just by watching the video tape, how can he even have the same weaknesses?" Of course, this is only the first time Xie Chen missed a shot, and Wade can't confirm it yet.

However, Wade soon lured Xie Chen to the three-point line at the top of the arc again, and then deliberately kept a distance from him, so that Xie Chen could shoot here.

Xie Chen generally does not shoot from the top of the arc, he is used to the right side, but for someone with Curry's three-point ability, any position outside the three-point line, as long as there is an opportunity, he will definitely shoot immediately.

"Hehe, Wade still dares to let me go? Do you really think I will miss two shots in a row? You underestimate Stephen Curry's ability too much." Xie Chen saw the opportunity and took off again near the three-point line.

Of course, it is impossible for Wade to let Xie Chen make a move and interfere as much as possible, but Xie Chen's move is too fast, unless you stay close to the opponent, or wait for Xie Chen to make a move and then follow up, in all likelihood, there will not be much interference.

Xie Chen was full of confidence, he missed once, it was impossible to miss twice, but something unexpected happened to him, the three-pointer hit the iron again, and it was completely missed!The ball hits the left side of the rim!

"What? It's impossible!" After Xie Chen raised Stephen Curry's three-point ability to SS, he never accurately tested the three-point shooting percentage of each position at all, because he tried the arc-top three-pointer from a longer distance than this, and the shooting percentage was very high, so he took it for granted that the shooting percentage would only be higher at closer range.

"The strangest thing in the world finally happened..." Wade also muttered, how could he not be surprised!Why Stephen Curry can't shoot here, and Xie Chen can't shoot here!And judging by Xie Chen's appearance, it seems that he doesn't know at all!

Wade was completely dumbfounded, just like a martial arts movie, Xie Chen and Curry learned the same martial arts cheats in one place at the same time, the things they know, the weaknesses of their abilities are exactly the same!
"Oh my god...don't tell me this is also a coincidence!" Curry was completely shocked, but thinking about it carefully, he reduced the training in that position because he was always heavily guarded in that position, and it was the same for Xie Chen!When Xie Chen holds the ball and stands in the top three-point position of the arc, the opponent will definitely be very alert, so it is also understandable for Xie Chen to reduce training at that position and increase training at a longer distance.

"This guy even has the same training focus as me, I'm going crazy!" Curry began to get excited.

Of course, Curry and Wade did not tell their teammates about this, but Xie Chen had already noticed something was wrong.

"Based on what I know about Wade, he wouldn't intentionally put me in this position for no reason. Did he calculate my shooting percentage here?" Xie Chen finally guessed Wade's strategy, but if he had checked Xie Chen's shooting data here, what would explain the shocked expression on Wade's face?Why was Xie Chen's miss so surprising to Wade?
Xie Chen found an opportunity and whispered to Wade: "You seem to have a lot of experience defending me tonight, why?"

Wade said with a smile: "Eliminate us, I will tell you!"

Wade's inscrutability made Xie Chen very uncomfortable, because Xie Chen was a person with a secret, and he couldn't let anyone know about it, not even his best brother.

Xie Chen still remembers the scene of using Curry's three-point ability to participate in the All-Star Three-Point Contest last season. Although the three-point shooting rate at the top of the arc is not as high as the bottom corner, it is not too bad. The current ability is different from last season's ability. Other aspects have improved, but it does not mean that there is no decline.

After 2 minutes, it was the top of the arc again, and Wade deliberately kept his distance again, he was betting!Bet Xie Chen has the same weakness as Curry!
"Wade seems to deliberately let Xie Chen shoot a three-pointer at the top of the arc! This is a naked provocation for Xie Chen!"

"Xie Chen has missed shots here twice in a row. Does he still dare to shoot? His most accurate position this season is the 45-degree angle on the right and the bottom corner."

The fans can also see that Wade is not afraid of Xie Chen shooting a three-pointer in this position!
Xie Chen got angry, did he think he only had Curry's three-point ability?

Seeing that Wade wasn't close, Xie Chen didn't hesitate to pull up and take off. This time, it was replaced by McGrady's three-point ability. McGrady likes to shoot three-pointers in this position. Sometimes, when he slowly and lazily dribbles across the half court and comes to this position, he will directly pull out and shoot.

Swish!
This time, finally three points into the net!

The ball is in!
Since Xie Chen made a quick shot this time, everyone didn't notice that Xie Chen's three-point action was a little different from before.

Xie Chen wants to tell Wade that if he wants to shoot a three-pointer, he can shoot from any position!So the next attack, continue to be in the same position, pull up and take off!And this time, Wade even stuck to Xie Chen, but it was useless!

Swish!
Simply into the box again!

"Xie is about to go crazy! This is the price Wade will pay for letting Xie go!"

After Xie Chen made two consecutive three-pointers at the top of the arc, he smiled at Wade, and Wade broke into a cold sweat.

"It's too strong, this guy is too strong, his offense has no dead ends, and there is no position he can't shoot in. I'm so naive..." Wade really convinced this time.

Stephen Curry is no longer surprised. It turns out that Xie Chen also made a good three-pointer from this position.

Xie Chen used McGrady's three-point ability to tell Wade not to try to find his weakness, but frankly speaking, in terms of Wade's defense against Xie Chen tonight, it was really excellent. After these two three-pointers, it became much more difficult for Xie Chen to score.

"Wade is too difficult to deal with. I have to find a way to get him out of the game." Xie Chen didn't like to fight with people who knew him so well. When he was in the Heat, Xie Chen had too many one-on-one bullfights with Wade, and he knew himself too well.

And it's not easy to foul Wade. After playing for so long in the first quarter, Xie Chen only caused one foul on Wade. Wade is also an experienced guy. He knows what the opponent is thinking and can easily see through the opponent's plot.

Back then, Wade was also a good foul-maker, and in the West, there was a foul-maker of the same type as Wade, named Ginobili.

"Maybe I should try to compete with Wade in Ginobili's way."

The contest between Wade and Ginobili is always very interesting. Xie Chen still remembers that in the second game of the 2014 Finals, Wade received the ball, and then Ginobili hit the ball. Wade pretended to be hit, and then the referee called Ginobili’s foul.

Ginobili's snake-shaped breakthrough is indeed the most suitable weapon for deceiving fouls. Xie Chen has Westbrook's speed, so he only needs to imitate Ginobili's footsteps.

Ginobili's footsteps can be said to be authentic orthodox, with both rigidity and softness, wide range of changes in direction, unimaginable ignorance of the body's center of gravity, no lightning-like speed, and no strong body as a guarantee, but he is still one of the best breakthrough masters in the NBA.

Xie Chen suddenly used snake-like footwork and shook Wade instantly. Wade never thought that Xie Chen would use Ginobili's move. Everyone was surprised to see Xie Chen break through with snake-like. Xie Chen really knows anyone's ability.

When Wade followed again, Xie Chen didn't continue to change direction, but directly bumped his body into Wade, jumped up and shot!

"Damn it! This is a foul!" Wade realized that Xie Chen was intentionally cheating for a foul, because Xie Chen didn't even look at the basket and threw it directly into the sky!

Wade is also a responsive person, and he is also a master of acting skills. The moment the two of them made physical contact, they fell to the ground almost at the same time, and they both pretended to be innocent.

This is difficult for the referee, is Xie Chen flopping?Or call Wade a foul?

Tonight's referee is the old man Crawford. He will not do it after this season and is about to retire. He originally planned to retire in March, but Adam Silver kept asking him to finish playing the playoffs, and he agreed.

Crawford stepped forward and called Wade for a foul.

There was applause at the scene, and Wade stood up helplessly, wondering if he owed Ginobili.

However, Xie Chen, who cheated into a foul, did not receive much good treatment. Crawford stepped forward and had a rare chat with Xie Chen: "Do you know why the Spurs kid doesn't average many free throws per game? We blacklisted him because we have seen his acting skills too many times. I hope you don't follow his old path."

Referees don't like players who flop, but Xie Chen only does this unless it is absolutely necessary. This is not his "conventional weapon".

Xie Chen smiled at Crawford and said, "I heard that you're going to retire this year, but I didn't expect you to survive the No. 21 rookie. I will miss you, especially when you sent him off the bench."

Crawford also showed a mysterious smile. Xie Chen thought he was accepting his teasing, but he didn't expect that the old guy Crawford was very concerned, thinking that Xie Chen was mocking Crawford's refereeing. After all, Duncan's refereeing the ball was indeed too controversial.

"This arrogant kid, I have to find a way to let him know that even No.1 in the league will succumb to my whistle!" The bald referee Crawford decided to blow another unreasonable whistle before retiring.

The target is the league No.1 Xie Chen!
After two fouls, Wade was temporarily taken off the court to rest. The person who replaced him was a bit surprising. It turned out to be another rookie of the Heat, Josh Richardson. Richardson was selected by the Heat in the second round. The 198cm guard was selected to the first team and the best defensive team in the senior season.

When Xie Chen saw him play, he felt inexplicably sad and uncomfortable, because Richardson was wearing size 0!
The number 0 of the Heat belongs to Xie Chen!

At this moment, Xie Chen hoped that Pat Riley could retire his jersey. In fact, Richardson wore No. 0 because he admired Xie Chen. He was so excited to play against Xie Chen in the playoffs.

Xie Chen felt that this rookie came up to face him, and he probably didn't hesitate to use fouls to stop him. Both he and Wade seemed ready to "sacrifice".

Xie Chen had no interest in this guy, so he refocused on the game. Gradually, Xie Chen found that he also fouled twice, and one foul was far-fetched.

Xie Chen looked at the unpredictable Crawford, thinking in his heart: "Isn't it just teasing him and making him angry? This old guy is really..."

Suddenly, the Heat completed the steal, and Richardson on the outside was the first to rush to the frontcourt.

"This kid is so fast!" Xie Chen rushed to chase after Richardson.

Joe Johnson passed the ball directly across the half court with a long pass. Richardson ran and caught the ball. When he received the ball, he was already at the three-point line on the left sideline. Richardson wanted to shoot a three-pointer, but Xie Chen had already arrived and appeared in front of him. He lost the first chance to shoot!
However, just at this moment, another person ran quickly from the midfield position, not a player from the Heat, nor a player from the Knicks, but a bald referee Crawford!

He rushed straight at Xie Chen and Richardson, what is he going to do! !
