Super all-around point guard

Chapter 558 Teach Danny Green to play basketball!

Varejao has been playing for the Cavaliers for so many years, so it is not surprising to meet him when playing the legendary Cavaliers. However, this season, Varejao has transferred to the Golden State Warriors, the favorite to win the championship. Many people joked that Varejao went to be James' undercover agent.

Varejao, an inside player, is not a big threat on both ends of the offense and defense, but his acting skills are top-notch. He can often flop and get fouls. As a big man, he is tall and has long arms. With him, the Knicks’ rebounding is also a problem.

It was not an easy task to get Varejao off the field. Xie Chen wanted to use the same move to forcefully dunk Varejao, but he managed to get in and successfully got the chance to confront Varejao one-on-one. However, Varejao was too smart. He had no intention of confronting Xie Chen head-on.

Xie Chen's dunk not only failed to achieve his goal, but also committed an offensive foul for no reason.

Varejao smiled slyly: "You want to deal with me? You are still very early!"

"Damn it!" Xie Chen was very depressed, Varejao was so cunning that he didn't dare to face him face to face, but since he was determined to deal with Varejao, he couldn't hide if he wanted to.

After that, Varejao grabbed two rebounds in succession, which intensified Xie Chen's determination to get him off the field.

Xie Chen whispered something to Anthony and asked him to cooperate with him. In fact, he was just taking advantage of his unpreparedness, letting Anthony attack with the ball, and then lure Varejao's defense. At that time, Xie Chen would fall from the sky and go straight to Varejao with O'Neal's ability. At that time, he could not hide even if he wanted to!

Anthony knew exactly what Xie Chen was going to do. He rushed to the basket and jumped in front of Varejao. Varejao saw that Anthony was going to attack the basket. His body was leaning back, not a dunk or a layup with his body. Faced with such an attack, Varejao didn't need to hide. He only needed to jump high and stretch out his arms to block such a ball.

When Varejao jumped up, Anthony's left-hand pick action changed instantly, the basketball was quickly transferred from the air to his right hand, and then his right hand was thrown up into the air with a low hand.

"Such a difficult layup in the air?" Varejao was dumbfounded, thinking that Anthony's hand change was a layup, and he didn't realize that it was a pass until he turned around in the air...

"Oh, God, no..." Varejao just turned around in the air, and his face suddenly changed. He saw Xie Chen rushing from the other side, then caught the ball with both hands, and went straight to Varejao!

boom!
Xie Chen hit Varejao impartially and completed the dunk!Varejao couldn't hide if he wanted to!Varejao is like a plane shot down in the air, his body is completely out of his control, he has been a film star for so many years, this time, he has already shown his best performance without acting.

Because he was very close to Anthony, when he fell, he stepped on Anthony's foot and sprained it. It seemed that there was really no way to fight this time.

The referee called Xie Chen an offensive foul again, but it didn't matter, it was fine if it wasn't a technical foul. Varejao was carried out with a limp, which had achieved Xie Chen's goal.

O'Neal, who was sitting off the court, grinned and looked completely stunned: "This guy was born ten years earlier, and he must have smashed more rebounds than me!"

Xie Chen's performance can only be expressed in terms of horror, O'Neal and Varejao can't fight anymore, Xie Chen feels that there is no problem in winning this game easily, as long as LeBron James is defended to death.

Looking back, I saw that James went to whisper to the referee.

James held the referee's shoulder and said: "Don't you think that number 0 is weird? His size doesn't make people feel strong, but he hit our two inside players one after another. I suspect he took some drugs."

Xie Chen overheard the conversation between James and the referee from behind, and thought to himself: "James, who was systemized in the Legend Challenge, suspected that I was taking medicine. If I used O'Neal's ability in a real NBA game, I'm afraid it would be even worse. It seems that O'Neal's domineering ability has no chance to appear in the real NBA arena."

James is just skeptical. It is not something that James or a few referees can decide to investigate players. The game is still going on.

James was taken care of and basically didn't score much, but the legendary Cavaliers had a rookie at this time, which aroused Xie Chen's interest.

This person is the three-point shooter of the favorite San Antonio Spurs, Danny Green.

"So young Danny Green." Xie Chen couldn't take his eyes off seeing Green walking on the field wearing a Cavaliers jersey.

This should be Danny Green in the rookie period. Danny Green entered the NBA and was selected by the Cavaliers in the second round. Green didn't stay with the Cavaliers for long. He only played 20 times on behalf of the Cavaliers before being cut by the Cavaliers.

In fact, when he entered the NBA, Danny Green was already an older youth. He played in North Carolina for four years and led his team to win the championship. He also retired from the NCAA, but he was like a fish in water in college. In the NBA, he couldn't find his own direction at all.

At the time, the head coach of the Cavaliers, Mike Brown, commented on Danny Green and said: "You will find that he has great potential, but there is nothing that can stand out."

Danny Green can do many things, but none of them are very good. Such a player cannot survive in the NBA. You must have something that you are particularly good at, or the ability to survive in this league.

After being waived by the Cavaliers, Danny Green transferred to the Spurs. It didn't go very smoothly at first, and he was quickly waived by Popovich. Then he went to play in the Development League. Who would have thought that Danny Green, a sharpshooter who is indispensable to the Spurs and wants to be chased by any league, could not gain a foothold in the NBA?
However, although Popovich laid off Danny Green, he did not give up Green completely. After Green was laid off, Popovich also personally contacted the North Carolina coach and said that he liked Green very much, but at the same time, Green needed to change himself before he could come back.

It was at this time that Danny Green underwent a thorough evolution.

Defense, and shooter.That is, a standard 3D player.

Xie Chen didn't fight Green many times, but every time he met him, Xie Chen had a very strange feeling. When it comes to the three-point shooters in the league today, Danny Green may be ranked below Curry and Xie Chen, but he is definitely one of the best outside shooters in the league, and Danny Green never lost to Xie Chen every time he faced him.

Danny Green is not as high-profile as Curry, but he has disdain for Xie Chen and Curry. This makes Xie Chen more uncomfortable. Although he is not arrogant, he is very disdainful. Xie Chen doesn't know whether Green really looks down on Xie Chen and Curry's three-point ability, or what.

Speaking of the number of three-pointers shot every day for so many years, Danny Green believes that he will not lose to anyone.It's just that under a system like the Spurs, he is not allowed to have too many unreasonable three-pointers.

Danny Green's first breakthrough layup was cut off by Xie Chen, and the next mid-range shot was blocked by Xie Chen again.

After stopping Danny Green twice, Xie Chen responded with a three-pointer.

It can be said that for Xie Chen now, dealing with Danny Green, who had not yet evolved in his rookie period, is as easy as hitting a child.

Although it is easy to abuse each other, it makes Xie Chen feel boring. How can Danny Green be like this?How can he play like this?
The Knicks led by a big score, Xie Chen couldn't help it, and said to Danny Green: "Hey, what are you doing?"

Danny Green was taken aback, and looked at Xie Chen with a dull look: "Are you talking to me?"

"Who else is it if it's not you?" Xie Chen replied: "Your current style of play is very problematic, and you don't have excellent ability to stay in the air and fade away. Why do you do those things? You can't survive in the NBA like this, do you know that?"

Xie Chen was talking to Danny Green, when James suddenly came over, pulled Danny Green away, and said to him: "Don't be influenced by him, he is provoking you on purpose, you don't need to make any changes."

However, Xie Chen's words made Danny Green fall into deep thought, because since he joined the Cavaliers, he has also realized this serious problem, but Danny Green doesn't know what to do.

Just now Xie Chen successfully defended Danny Green twice, and then quickly made a three-pointer, telling Green that defense and three-pointers are his weapons for survival in the NBA.

Xie Chen stepped forward and asked, "In a few years, do you know what is the most popular offensive weapon in the NBA?"

Danny Green stopped and looked at James. Although he had been systemized, Green's thoughts were still unfettered.

"Is it a three-pointer?" Danny Green asked.

Xie Chen nodded. Seeing that James was about to express his disagreement, he quickly said: "LeBron, if Danny Green can become the best shooter, then your chances of winning the championship will be greatly increased. You will be a very terrifying combination."

The relationship between James and Danny Green is very good. A few years ago, the Spurs lost to the Heat in the finals. Green went to nightclubs with James afterwards. Such a harmonious relationship, if Danny Green and James, who have the current ability, can combine, it will definitely be more powerful.

In fact, James has always felt very regretful. When he became teammates with Danny Green, it was precisely when Danny Green was at his weakest.

Now that Green has been subdued by Popovich, he will not change jobs easily.

The legendary Cavaliers are now missing two of the most important inside players. The Knicks have the advantage in rebounding. Xie Chen can shoot three-pointers with more confidence. No matter how strong James is alone, it is difficult to reverse the score in such a situation.

At halftime, the Knicks led the legendary Cavaliers by more than 20 points.

"I hope I don't have to play in the second half." Xie Chen hoped not to play for a minute in the second half, a complete rest.

However, James did not give up the game completely. He kept chasing the score. Fortunately, besides Xie Chen, the Knicks also had the ace of Anthony.

……

Returning to the 2016 NBA game, Xie Chen breathed a sigh of relief.

He was right in his prediction. To a certain extent, playing the Cavaliers series is actually easier than playing the Heat, because the difficulty of the Legendary Challenge has been reduced, which is related to whether or not he loses his ability, so it is of great significance. He played the Cavaliers in two away games.

Now the Knicks lead the Cavaliers by as much as 17 points. As long as they focus on the game and maintain the score, winning is not difficult.Xie Chen rested for two full quarters in the Legend Challenge, and he has enough physical strength to continue to compete with James.

Xie Chen has scored more than 30 points in this game, and James has also scored more than 30 points, and he is even crazier than Xie Chen!
In the fourth quarter, James still carried the burden on his shoulders and led the team to start a counterattack. He once chased the point difference to only 8 points!His personal score also set a new high in the playoffs this season, 47 points!
"My God, James has scored 47 points! This will be a 50+ show!"

"It's only two points away from tying his single-game scoring record in the playoffs. I never expected him to break 50 tonight!"

James' single-game scoring record in the playoffs is 49 points. It has always been his regret that he did not pass 50+. Tonight, he has the opportunity to achieve this wish, but he wants to win more than the statistics.

The fans of the Cavaliers are also full of emotion. Watching James score again and again, it is like seeing another Kobe. When have they seen James play like this?It seems that James really wants to win Xie Chen, and he wants to rely on his own strength.

Owen Love's state tonight is indeed not as good as the previous game, James had to come by himself.

The point difference has been chased to 8 points. Just when Xie Chen was about to respond by himself, teammate Anthony suddenly asked Xie Chen for the ball.

"Hey, here!" Anthony settled down and asked Xie Chen for the ball.

On the one hand, James' madness greatly stimulated Anthony, who was also the golden generation in 2003, and Anthony also wanted to prove himself!On the other hand, Anthony was worried that Xie Chen had exhausted a lot of energy and wanted to take the responsibility.

Xie Chen handed him the ball, and Anthony did not disappoint everyone. He easily turned over and shot a jumper, which was hollow into the net.

After that, when James once again used free throws to narrow the point difference to 8 points, Anthony made another cold-blooded mid-range hit!

James looked at Anthony, and Anthony looked at James. At this moment, time seemed to return to ten years ago.
