Super all-around point guard

Chapter 571 The Sixth Battle!
Until he returned to the locker room, Xie Chen was still excited with his teammates. He was always cautious and didn't dare to relax until the last moment. What's more, the opponent was stronger than them. The Cavaliers definitely had a chance to drag the series into the tiebreaker.

But Xie Chen still couldn't suppress this joyful mood. He won the very crucial away game, and the next game was at home. He didn't need to play against a legendary team, so he had no reason to lose.

There is another reason why Xie Chen is so happy. In the playoffs, Xie Chen has never been ahead of James. Whether it is last year's series or this year's series, James' team must have the upper hand first. Xie Chen has always been the one who catches up slowly, stealing one victory after another carefully.

If possible, Xie Chen would like to give James a taste of being 0:3 behind his opponent, but it is a pity that he does not have this ability. James is now 2:3 behind, which is much better than last year when Xie Chen fell behind 0:3.

However, James gave Xie Chen a chance to tie last year, and Xie Chen would never give James this chance. In the next game, Xie Chen will end the series!

The fifth game between the Warriors and the Spurs also started. Surprisingly, it was not the Golden State Warriors with the best record in home games that won the Tianwangshan battle, but the veteran Spurs!They actually stole this most critical victory at the Warriors' home court!
In this game, both Curry and Thompson's three-pointers were terrible. They didn't help the team very well, but even so, they were only two points behind in the end.

Curry was extremely annoyed by this defeat. Curry played too anxiously throughout the game. He was anxious to win this most crucial game, to win this series. He was anxious to go to the finals to meet Xie Chen!

Because of impatience, Curry shot a lot of three-pointers that shouldn't be shot. The Spurs have competed with the Warriors too many times. Even if Curry is amazing, they know how to deal with him. It is not wrong for Curry to lose to the Spurs.

But in this situation, many netizens think that the Warriors and Cavaliers will advance to the finals. Maybe everyone likes to watch the reversed plot.

Xie Chen left Cleveland the night after the game, and returned to New York one step earlier than his teammates. He didn't want to waste a night here alone. He wanted to go back earlier to spend more time with Katie. His wife was about to give birth. If Xie Chen could reach the finals, then Xie Chen would become a father during the finals... This has always troubled Xie Chen.

Katie was very moved by Xie Chen's arrival in the early morning. Both of them were so excited that they couldn't fall asleep and chatted until dawn.

Katie said: "Honey, if you win another game, you will advance to the finals, and our child will be born at that time..."

Before Katie finished speaking, Xie Chen held Katie's hand tightly, and said, "Don't think about it, don't worry about my playing games, and don't make any changes. You just need to give birth to the child with peace of mind. I will always be by your side with you."

"But……"

Just as Katie was about to speak, Xie Chen's lips kissed her...

In fact, Xie Chen was also struggling with this issue, but he didn't think too much about it. Although he was [-]% confident that he could reach the finals, it was too early to think about what he would do after reaching the finals.

Family and the championship are very important to Xie Chen. If he fails to make it to the finals, Xie Chen will not be distressed. He will have enough time to spend with his wife and welcome the arrival of his child.But Xie Chen would not let such a thing happen.

……

On May 2016, 5, Game 29 of the Eastern Conference Finals, New York Knicks home court, Madison Square Garden!
"If we win this game, we will advance to the finals! I can't believe that we are so close to the championship this year!" All the Knicks fans at the scene were filled with excitement.

Tonight, the famous New York Knicks "Gorilla" Ewing also appeared on the sidelines. He once led the team to the finals. Today, he is very pleased to see this group of young people have the opportunity to approach the stage of the finals.

Before the game, Xie Chen and Anthony went to the sidelines to chat with Ewing for a while.

"Thank you, are you nervous?" Anthony suddenly asked Xie Chen before the game started.

Xie Chen was a little puzzled: "Don't be nervous."

"Damn it, I don't know why, but I'm a little nervous today. I haven't felt this way for a long time." Anthony said in distress.

Xie Chen looked at Anthony, and smiled softly. He didn't expect that Anthony, a veteran, was not as good as himself in terms of mental quality. But if he thought about it carefully, if he was like Anthony, who had played in the league for so many years and never made it to the finals, he would be very excited at this time, right?
"I have never been so close to the stage of the finals." It can be seen that Anthony attaches great importance to it.

Except for Anthony, none of the young players on the team have ever stood on the stage of the finals. Xie Chen will help them to stand up tonight!
Win James, win the Cavaliers, and enter the finals!
"Tonight, I must win!" Xie Chen clenched his fists.

Different from the excitement of the Knicks and other players, the Cavaliers are very serious, especially James, who is 2:3 behind the opponent. This is a plot he did not expect before. Fortunately, they still have a chance.

This is a very strange and terrible thing. How could the Knicks, the eighth-ranked team, beat the Cavaliers, the strongest team in the East, like this?

Xie Chen's countless miraculous performances are undoubtedly the culprit!There are also Anthony, who is rejuvenated in his second spring, Derek Williams who suddenly broke out, Porzingis, the most mature rookie, and Ray Allen, who will always help the team in desperation.

This team does not seem to be strong, but it played a game that any team would be afraid of!

The coach of the Cavaliers, Tyronn Lue, now has a heavy burden and a lot of pressure, because he finds that he can no longer control James a bit. The team has reached this point, and James has ignored him.

If they lose the game, the Cavaliers' playoff journey will end here, and the first season of Tyronn Lue's coaching will also end here. It seems that they have reached the Eastern Conference finals.

If the Cavaliers lose in the Eastern Conference Finals for two consecutive years, then James will have no patience, and the Cavaliers may undergo huge changes!
Kevin Love may leave, Tyronn Lue will definitely dismiss get out of class, and even LeBron James may leave!

As we all know, James signed a 1+1 contract when he returned to the Cavaliers. As the star of the Cavaliers, he should sign a long-term contract with the team. This is good for the fans, the team management, and for these teammates.

The reason why he signed that kind of contract is very simple. He said that he hopes to ensure that he can get the highest annual salary every year according to the rising salary cap of the league.

"What happened to the boss today, I haven't listened to him all day." Dellavedova asked Owen.

Owen shook his head at him: "No one knows what he's thinking, but I'm sure it's because of the game. If we can win this game and drag the game into the tiebreaker, I think he will be fine."

Dellavedova sighed: "I don't want the playoffs to end here, but we have to admit that the opponent is strong. They are definitely not an eighth-ranked team..."

Irving quickly stopped the other party's speech: "Okay, stop talking. LeBron will be upset if he hears you praise your opponent so much. I also know that they are very strong, otherwise they would not be qualified to compete with us for tickets to the finals. But I don't want to have any regrets. Tonight we will go all out."

Tyronn Lue gathered all the players together and said loudly: "We must put pressure on them from the beginning and try to lead the opponent at the very beginning. In today's game, we have no retreat. Every minute, every second, every offense, and every rebound must do our best. I ask you to show your best form. We must press them to play. Let's play, let's bring the game back to Cleveland!"

"Come on!" All the knights and generals were particularly motivated.

The same is true for the Knicks. In the sixth game, the two sides seem to be fighting to the death!

On the Tencent NBA live platform, the host Ke Fan also explained: "Today, Mr. Su and I will explain this most critical game to everyone. I made a bet with Mr. Su before the game. I bet that the Cavaliers and the Knicks will have a tiebreaker. Mr. Su thinks that the Knicks will win this game. Let us wait and see what the result will be."

Less than a minute into the game, Xie Chen rushed to grab a rebound and got a block with James. Xie Chen clicked and the ball flew into the sky again. Neither of them got it, and James refused to give up.

Seeing that two people were so desperate for the first rebound just opened, the others were startled and they didn't dare to step forward!
In the end, the two guys, who were unwilling to admit defeat, both fell to the sidelines, and their fingers were bleeding. The injuries were not serious, but the attitude of the two people made people feel terrible.

Ke Fan was shocked: "Did the two play the first ball like this? At the end, they won't fight, right?"

Su Qun said with a smile: "It's impossible to fight. It's impossible for James himself to fight with others on the field. Although Xie Chen has the experience of fighting, he won't be able to fight in the Eastern Conference Finals. Besides, as far as I know, Xie Chen still respects James very much. The two are purely rivals. However, this is the first time I have seen such a level of competition at the beginning."

James remained silent and did not communicate with his teammates, let alone Xie Chen. After James and Xie Chen fell together, James got up and left without looking at Xie Chen.

Xie Chen knew that James really wanted to win this game.

Not only James and Xie Chen staged this kind of grabbing rebound, but Tristan Thompson and Lopez also did it. One of them fouled the other, and the referee did not take sides.

What Xie Chen and Tyronn Lue both thought was to score crazy points at the beginning, and then take a big lead to control the game, but the fact is that it was difficult for anyone to score at the beginning. Everyone defended the first quarter like the fourth quarter, and it was not easy for everyone to score.

Defensive intensity is one thing, superstar means, no matter how good you defend, I can score goals.

Xie Chen quickly explained this.

Another two consecutive fadeaway jumpers broke the deadlock!

Ke Fan praised: "I think Xie Chen's fadeaway jumper has reached the pinnacle, and he can stand shoulder to shoulder with Michael Jordan. You can see that every time he throws the ball, every posture, movement and scoring method are the same. None of them is particularly outrageous. This is so rare. How did he grasp his strength so well?"

Su Qun said: "It depends on training and body. Without day and night training and a strong body, it is impossible to guarantee such a high level of stability. Now I am worried that Xie Chen will be able to hold on in the end after playing like this at the beginning. In the last game, his physical strength had problems at the end. Fortunately, he was lucky, and he scored two consecutive high-difficulty fallbacks, but I don't think he can be as lucky every night as he was that day."

Seeing Xie Chen constantly expending his physical strength to score, Tyronn Lue was not panicked: "As long as you hold on to the score and don't let them lead too much, there is no problem. Thank you, your physical problems have been exposed long ago. You played like this crazily in the first quarter. It's good. In the fourth quarter, I'll see how hard you fight with me! This is a tug of war, James, you must persevere until the end!"

James kept silent, but kept doing it, rebounding, organizing offenses, passing assists to teammates, including scoring himself. The almighty James almost took over all the work, and every player was following James’ instructions. The longer you get along with James, the more you will discover his leadership. Owen Love was originally a superstar, but in front of James, they have forgotten their identities.

Xie Chen took the lead with great difficulty and was caught up in just 2 minutes. Afterwards, James used a dunk with both hands to overtake the score.

Although Xie Chen doesn't have to play two games in a row this hard, it will be the hardest game in this series!
