Super all-around point guard

Chapter 601 Battle of Tianwang Mountain!
As the coach of a team with the best record in history, Cole has failed to guard Xie Chen in the past few games, which has already made him feel like a failure. If Xie Chen sees through and defends his team's well-designed offensive tactics, then he and the entire coaching staff will lose face, and the coach of the year trophy will be thrown away.

The weave tactic is not just a simple routine, otherwise, not only Xie Chen can see through it, but any opponent can see the Warriors' offensive routine and stop it.

The Warriors also have an advanced version of the weave tactic. The difference between the advanced version of the weave tactic and the previous tactic is that Klay Thompson and Stephen Curry have changed. In the advanced version of the weave tactic, Klay Thompson, who was supposed to run to the top of the arc and cooperate hand-in-hand and then perform a pick-and-roll, did not do what he did before. He just made a fake move to the top of the arc. At the same time, Curry, who had the opportunity, suddenly circled to the top of the arc to take over Klay Thompson's completed action.

The change in this detail has a great impact on defenders like the Knicks, because the defensive expectation of the Knicks is that Klay Thompson executes the pick-and-roll, and when Stephen Curry is about to start, the Knicks will face a big problem in a very short period of time. Curry and Thompson crossed positions, should they switch defenses?After that, how should hand-to-hand cooperation and pick-and-rolls be defended?
The good thing about the Warriors is that they can play with imagination and free and unrestrained style of play. The five players on the court are all very good tactical implementers, and the Warriors have at least three top tactical organizers in the league. They can read the opponent's defense very quickly and accurately.

After several fights, Xie Chen no longer dared to defend so "boldly". The Warriors' tactics are ever-changing and these guys can play according to different defenses in a short period of time. In these few rounds, each time the Warriors' goalscorers have exceeded everyone's expectations. You can't guess which of them will complete this attack. When the ball reaches their hands, it seems that anyone may be the finisher.

"The Warriors are too strong." Xie Chen also had to admire the Warriors as a team. The basketball game is played by five players. Even if Xie Chen has the most heaven-defying basketball talent in the world, some aspects are beyond his capabilities.

This game made Phil Jackson sigh: "Steve Kerr is still far better than Fisher."

Zen Master looked at Kerr with a confident smile on his face, and sighed. In fact, when he took charge of the Knicks with great ambitions, the first head coach he thought of was Steve Kerr.

Cole has achieved great success as a rookie coach. You must know that the Warriors players were dissatisfied with the dismissal of former Warriors coach Mark Jackson. After Cole took over as the coach, no Warriors player welcomed Cole on Twitter or in interviews or other channels.

Zen Master appreciates Cole's talent very much, but at the same time feels sorry for Cole. If Cole had agreed to his invitation, Cole would have been able to coach Xie Chen, a once-in-a-century genius.

In fact, Cole sometimes wondered, what would the combination of himself and Xie Chen be like?But with players like Stephen Curry, Klay Thompson, and Dreaming Green, he already feels extremely satisfied.

The core tactic of the Knicks is the triangle offense. Don’t think that the Warriors don’t know how to play the triangle offense. When Kerr was a player, he played under Phil Jackson’s triangle offense system. Assistant coach Luke Walton also dealt with the triangle offense when he was in the Lakers.

Cole made some simplifications and revisions to the triangle offensive tactics to make it more suitable for the Warriors team and maximize the characteristics of the Warriors. It can be seen that the Warriors have many classic triangle offenses that steal from Zen Master.

Watching the Warriors trained by Cole destroy the Knicks in this way, Zen master's eyes hurt actively, and he couldn't stand it anymore.

"Every excessive defensive pressure means an opportunity to slip through the back door!" The Warriors players still remember the coach's teachings to them. They have good qualities and talents, and they execute the triangle offense even better than the Knicks players!
Fisher's face became more and more ugly, he was bullied by Cole too badly.

At this time, Zen Master has also decided that after the finals, regardless of whether the Knicks can win the championship, Fisher must be fired. His ability and those lace news make him no longer qualified for this position.

"Fisher is dismissed! A player as strong as Xie Chen can't use it, and he even hooks up with the player's wife. His character and ability are not good. Why should he be the coach of a championship-level team?"

"Fisher's level is so mediocre, and the Knicks have reached the finals. I can't imagine what the Knicks would be like with an outstanding coach like Kerr. I can only be sure that the Knicks will look better! This is a pity for Xie Chen. Like LeBron James, he has never met the top coach."

Superstars like Michael Jordan, Kobe Bryant, and Dwyane Wade have all followed great coaches, and so has Stephen Curry. Only LeBron James and Xie Chen have the same disease at this point. They never meet great coaches, but even so, they still achieve great achievements in this situation.

But whether it is James or Xie Chen, they all hope to meet excellent coaches like Popovich and Cole.

The Warriors have been leading the score all the time, but assistant coach Luke Walton has no smile on his face. Kerr inadvertently saw it and asked in a low voice: "It should be no problem for us to win today's game. Why don't you look happy?"

Luke Walton withdrew his eyes from Xie Chen and said, "Oh, nothing, I was just thinking, if I were the Knicks coach, what would I do with Xie Chen?"

Luke Walton is actually feeling sorry for Xie Chen. He respects Xie Chen, a great opponent who caused them trouble. At the same time, Walton also has great ambitions. He needs a top player like Xie Chen to help him realize it. The Los Angeles Lakers are a team that is attractive to any star. He firmly believes that if he can be the coach of the Lakers, one day in the future, perhaps the two may really have the possibility of joining forces.

Coach Cole smiled after hearing this: "Now I'm already thinking about how to deal with my Warriors? It seems that next season we will have a very exciting match."

Wharton just said it unintentionally. Hearing Cole's joke, he quickly laughed: "The Lakers are the bottom team in the league. How can they challenge the Warriors? Next season, you must be merciful and don't let us lose too badly."

……

In the fourth game, the Knicks still lost. The Warriors strangled Xie Chen and allowed other Knicks players to beat them. In the end, Xie Chen’s teammates did not play at a high level. They only surpassed the Warriors by 7 points in a short period of time, but they were quickly chased back by the Warriors. However, Coach Kerr said that Xie Chen should score less than 30 points in this game.

The series has become a 2:2 tie again, and the next game will return to the Devil's home court of the Warriors. For Xie Chen, it means playing a legendary game again. He feels that the probability of meeting the Warriors last year is very high.

For the legendary Warriors, Xie Chen was most worried about last year's Warriors.

That night, after Xie Chen put Su Rui to sleep, he ran to the study to watch last year's Finals between the Warriors and the Heat.

Xie Chen watched tirelessly. Not long after, Katie, who was a little sleepless, came to the room to look for him. Katie knew that Xie Chen lost the game tonight, and guessed that Xie Chen might be watching the video to find the reason for his failure. However, Katie found that the screen on the computer was the picture of last year's finals.

"Why did you go to the game against them last year?" Katie asked curiously.

It wasn't until Katie spoke that Xie Chen noticed that Katie had entered the room. The reason why Xie Chen watched the Warriors' game last year was of course to deal with the legendary Warriors, but he definitely couldn't confess this to Katie.

Xie Chen stretched his waist and replied, "Oh, that's right. I've watched a lot of Warriors game videos this season. Last year's Warriors also had a lot of classic tactical routines, some of which they didn't use very much this season. Cole may also use what he did last year to deal with us, so I want to find out."

Katie stretched out her slender right hand and stroked Xie Chen's cheek with a distressed look: "These should be the work of the coaching staff. My dear, you are so tired. In this team, you have to do everything. I really feel sorry for you. When will you be able to partner with a good coach like Cole?"

Xie Chen also stood up and kissed Katie, smiled and said, "Phil has told me that he plans to quit Fisher next season, but I don't think he can hire a good coach."

Katie asked: "Do you have any favorite candidates? How about Kenny Smith? I heard that the fans of the Rockets now hope that he can come to coach."

Xie Chen shook his head: "Why would you recommend him? Could it be because you are in the same industry? But you are on ESPN, and he is on T.NT, so you probably don't have much friendship?"

Katie glared at Xie Chen angrily: "I know a little about him, but it's thanks to you. At that time, in order to be the host of the firsttake program and to work in the same field as you, I watched a lot of materials and programs. I also watched a lot of conversations with guys from ESPN. I found that Kenny Smith seemed to understand the ball very well, and he was also a point guard. Generally, guys with a point guard background are good as coaches, right? Like Steve Kerr, Jason Kidd... Hey, why do you use such eyes? looking at me?"

As Katie was talking, she noticed that Xie Chen was staring at her with a very strange look.

Xie Chen looked at Katie and said appreciatively, "Honey, you really understand the game more and more."

After hearing this, Katie immediately became shy and fell into Xie Chen's arms like a little bird. Xie Chen also took the opportunity to hold Katie tighter. The two hadn't been intimate for a long time. Katie finally gave birth, and the two should return to their usual married life soon...

However, just as Xie Chen's hand was about to move, Katie's next sentence immediately scared Xie Chen back the evil hand: "So can I apply for the assistant coach of the Knicks?"

……

As a woman, Xie Chen knew that Katie was an ambitious and bold woman, but she didn't expect that she would want to be an assistant coach of an NBA team. Maybe she would even plan to coach Xie Chen as a coach in the future!

The NBA is a men's league, but it's not that there are no female coaches. Just two years ago, the Spurs announced on their official website that Becky Harmon, who was selected to the WNBA All-Star team six times, officially became a member of the Spurs' assistant coaching team. Harmon became the first female coach officially hired by the team in the history of the NBA and even the four major North American professional sports leagues.

Xie Chen can understand Katie's thoughts, she wants to be with Xie Chen all the time, the two face difficulties together and share joy together, but frankly speaking, Xie Chen doesn't want his wife to hang out with such a group of men all day long.

He still thinks it would be better for Katie to be the host...

……

Coming to Oakland again, the two sides are about to start the fifth finals game.

This Tianwangshan battle is very important. Winning this game is basically equivalent to touching the championship trophy. Getting the match point is what the Warriors and the Knicks want to do.

The score between the two sides was a 2-2 tie before, which showed that they were evenly matched. In fact, the Knicks still won the Warriors. Because Xie Chen did not play in the first game of the finals, the Knicks did not show their due strength at all. After Xie Chen returned, the score of the finals was 2:1, so the Warriors were still very anxious.

The Golden State Warriors sit at home, which is the best opportunity for them. They must win this game, no matter what the price is. At the same time, Draymond Green has already planned to do everything possible.

After the start of the Tianwangshan battle, the Knicks players entered the state very quickly and had a good shooting feel. Even if they missed, the team's insider Lopez could always grab rebounds. The Warriors seemed very passive when they came up.

At this time, Draymond Green forced Lopez for a layup in an offense, and was capped by Lopez. Green jumped up. After the ball was capped, Green made an exaggerated movement, waving his arms, with a ferocious expression, as if he was blocked because of a foul, and the two did have physical contact.

Because Green's foot kicked Lopez's nipples, Lopez knelt on the floor in pain on the spot.
