Super all-around point guard

Chapter 658 Snatching the "Flying City"!
After Chris Paul joined the Clippers and partnered with the slam dunk king Griffin and the most athletic center Jordan, the reputation of the Los Angeles Clippers as the "city of lobs" gradually spread throughout the league, and the gorgeous basketball of Los Angeles' new favorite also inspired the league.

Since Xie Chen's first season in the NBA, he has always been accompanied by a gorgeous style of play. The unimaginable lobs and dunks are also his favorites, and since the first season, every time he meets the Clippers, he will respond to the opponent with an lob with his teammates. He likes the title "City of Lobs".

Now that Jordan was replaced due to too many early fouls, this will help Xie Chen gallop under the opponent's basket, and without Jordan, coupled with Griffin's leg injury, after Xie Chen's dunk, what will the Clippers do in response? !
"The Lakers have been under the pressure of the Clippers for the past few years, losing dozens of points at every turn. Kobe must be very uncomfortable. Today I will help you out." Xie Chen knew that Kobe was a very strong guy and would never be willing to be beaten by the Clippers.

Mozgov received a pass from Xie Chen on the side of the basket, and played singles with his back against his opponent. At the same time, other Lakers players kept away from the space. At this time, Xie Chen suddenly jumped out at a high speed and went straight to the basket!

Mozgov had understood it long ago, leaning on his opponent's body, he threw it high under the basket, and after Xie Chen caught the ball, he dunked it in the air with amazing momentum!
The two completed a wonderful all-around cooperation!

The fans at the scene also began to erupt. Being Lakers fans is so happy. Every game can see Xie Chen's such a wonderful dunk, let alone whether he can make it to the playoffs or win the championship. The Lakers fans are already very satisfied with just playing so gorgeously and pleasing to the eye!

However, this empty-air coordination is just the beginning.

The next time the Lakers attacked, Mozgov responded from a high position. Xie Chen slid to the left baseline, then suddenly started from the bottom corner and slipped from the baseline to the basket. Mozgov passed the ball high again!
"You don't want to dunk again!" Griffin realized that Mozgov still passed the ball to Xie Chen, and watched Xie Chen dunk one, but he couldn't watch Xie Chen dunk the second.

So, Griffin quickly chased after him. When Xie Chen jumped high to receive the pass from Mozgov, Griffin also jumped up at the same time, and stretched out his arms to attack Xie Chen. Xie Chen realized that Griffin was behind him. If he dunked the ball like this, it would probably be blocked. He didn't need to take this risk, because he found that his teammate Ingram ran over from the free throw line!

Xie Chen pulled his hand from the high position to the low position, Griffin threw his big palm into the air, and Xie Chen used a movement similar to picking the basket, and passed the ball to Ingram under the basket.

Ingram rushed in quickly. After taking off, he caught Xie Chen's pass and dunked with both hands!
The audience is boiling again!

"The three of them cooperated twice in a row! Thank you for passing the ball too quickly! Ingram has another chance to show his talent!"

"Oh my god, it's another lob match. Even CP3, Griffin and Jordan don't have such a wonderful match, right? I think the Clippers might as well give the Lakers the 'Lob City'. They're all in Los Angeles anyway!"

"Agreed! Now the Lakers are worthy of this title!"

Griffin failed to block the shot. Seeing the rookie rookie's wild dunk, he felt very unhappy. He walked up to Xie Chen and asked, "What do you want?"

Xie Chen replied: "I heard that you don't want the title 'City of Air Pickup', so give it to us. We, the Lakers, speak for you."

The slogan "Lob City" was proposed by Griffin, but Coach Rivers doesn't like this name, and he doesn't regard it as an honor. Rivers only cares about the championship, so he once told the players not to mention the city of lobs anymore, and stop flying around indiscriminately. Winning is the key!
Although Griffin also agreed with Rivers' arrangement to use the CIC more, I don't have to use this name, but I can't let others take it. This is something Griffin can't stand, and in Griffin's eyes, the Lakers are not qualified to replace the Clippers at all. They only have a top dunk like Xie Chen, and they still play point guards.

Griffin said with displeasure: "You want to replace us? Let me tell you, as long as I'm on the Clippers for a day, don't even think about it! You foreigner!"

Griffin doesn't like to meet Xie Chen and play games with Xie Chen, because Xie Chen can cause trouble for Griffin every time. Before Xie Chen was in the East, the two played against each other twice a season. Now that they have come to the West and played with him in the same city, Griffin feels that the next season will be difficult.

However, as the initiator of "Lob City" and the signature star of the Clippers, Griffin is obliged to stand up and respond to Xie Chen in the same way!
Griffin gave Paul a look, and Paul immediately understood that Griffin was about to dunk, and as long as there was an opportunity, Paul would send the lob.

However, coach Rivers does not want Griffin to respond to Xie Chen. What Rivers thinks is to win, and Xie Chen loves to dunk as he likes. The Clippers only need to win!
Paul knows that Griffin's leg injury has not fully recovered. It is really difficult for him to dunk like Gasol did before, and even if Griffin can complete it, Paul does not want him to take this risk. It is just a regular season, and it has just started. There is no need to do this.With the super strong team of the Warriors here, everyone knows how important it is to have a good ranking in the West. If you meet a big crocodile later, you will have more hope of surviving!

However, Griffin was eager to prove himself, responded to Xie Chen with a dunk, and never passed the ball to Griffin, which made Griffin very anxious.

As a power forward, Griffin can't break through with the ball and dunk by himself like Xie Chen. Griffin doesn't have that kind of speed at all. If he wants to complete the dunk, he still has to rely on Paul to help him.

Anxious mentality, so that Griffin can't even complete the mid-range shot without interference.

This annoyed Rivers, who was sitting off the court, because the Lakers took advantage of this opportunity to catch up with the score.

However, Griffin couldn't help complaining about Paul: "Brother, pass the ball, after I gave you the pick-and-roll just now, you passed it in, and I flew over to dunk!"

Paul said softly: "It's too risky to pass the ball like this. You'd better not forcefully dunk when there are people."

Griffin said anxiously: "I can't let that guy steal our name!"

As a member of the Clippers, and also as a point guard with Xie Chen, Paul himself didn't want Xie Chen to be so prominent, so he said to Griffin: "Next, I will try to break Ingram's ball. As soon as I make a move, you will immediately run forward, and I will send you a long-distance alley-oop match!"

Griffin was very excited: "Good!"

"Damn it, why didn't Blake deduct one to give the Lakers some color." Little Jordan, who was sitting off the court, was also very anxious. Seeing Xie Chen abuse his team in his best way, Little Jordan felt very uncomfortable. He couldn't help but said to Coach Rivers: "Let me play!"

Rivers knew what Jordan was thinking, and replied angrily: "I don't care what the score is for the dunk on the field. I only care about winning. You just stay here honestly. You were cheated by that kid for two fouls so early. You should reflect on yourself."

On the court, Ingram will always have some right to control the ball on the offensive end. This seems very unhappy to Paul. Paul doesn’t want to be Ingram’s partner and let Ingram exercise his ability to hold the ball. Therefore, without anyone noticing, Paul suddenly let go of Xie Chen, who is the most offensive threat, and turned to steal Ingram’s ball!
Xie Chen and Rivers were surprised at the same time, Paul didn't care about Xie Chen?
Xie Chen saw Paul running towards Ingram quickly. Ingram was still a rookie, and he was very focused on the one-on-one on the court, and he didn't realize that Paul, who was not tall, was coming.

"He wants to steal Ingram's ball?" Xie Chen had this idea in his mind immediately, but why did Paul take such a risk?
Xie Chen just followed, and at the same time found that Blake Griffin suddenly jumped out. At the same time that Paul broke Ingram's ball, Griffin rushed to the Lakers' basket!
"They want to catch it!" Xie Chen realized that Paul took such a risk in order to create a chance for Griffin to dunk!

"It's coming!" Little Jordan was so excited when he saw this, he stood up excitedly. He had expected that Griffin would at least play a violent windmill dunk on the Lakers' basket!
After Xie Chen realized this, he didn't care about Paul's affairs at all, and immediately used Bolt's speed to rush over!
Paul didn't pay too much attention to Xie Chen. After all, Griffin had started before he stole the ball. Paul didn't pass the half court at all, and directly threw the ball out of the backcourt to the frontcourt!
"What a long pass!"

Paul's passing skills are quite powerful, and the ball was accurately passed to the basket. At this time, Griffin also happened to run to the basket.

Griffin jumped on one foot and raised his hands to catch the ball!
"Oh my god, thank you so fast!"

Just when Griffin was about to reach the basketball, Xie Chen chased up from the backcourt with lightning speed of [-] meters. Then Xie Chen also jumped high and intercepted the basketball ahead of Griffin!

"Steal? Can this kind of pass be intercepted?!" Chris Paul was stunned. Griffin started the pass earlier than Xie Chen. How did Xie Chen come from behind?

Griffin had already planned to play a big windmill dunk after catching the ball, but unexpectedly, the ball was intercepted by Xie Chen in advance!
Xie Chen steadily got the ball in the air, and after it landed, he rushed back slowly. At this time, there were only Xie Chen and Griffin in the frontcourt, and everyone else was in the other half of the court, acting as spectators. After Xie Chen got the ball, the Clippers were not ready to meet him.

However, Xie Chen didn't plan to go back at all!
"Defense!" Chris Paul shouted to the other three teammates when he saw Xie Chen coming with the ball.

However, when Xie Chen stepped on the Lakers logo area, he stopped and shot a three-pointer!

"What?" Everyone in the audience was stunned!But at halftime?This is too confident, right?
Normally, people would only see this kind of desperate long-distance shooting when the attack time is running out, but in Xie Chen's case, it became a conventional weapon, because Xie Chen knew his shooting percentage here.Unguarded opportunities are rare.

"Grab a rebound!" Seeing that the boss threw it from such a far position, the Lakers players were a little flustered, and immediately rushed to the basket to grab a rebound.

The two sides fought very hard with their bodies under the basket, however, the ball went into the net with precision!
There was an uproar at the scene.

"Go in! This goal actually went in!"

"Rushing to the front court at a high speed, after cutting off the pass, the ultra-long-range three-pointer at the LOGO position, this ball, no matter which season it is played in, will be the top ten."

"Xie's speed is too fast! And his judgment is very accurate. He didn't go after Paul, but knew in advance that Paul was going to pass to Griffin."

The combination of Bolt's ability and Curry's ability left everyone in the audience dumbfounded!It's just so unreasonable!

Xie Chen ruined the Clippers' only chance to respond to the Lakers' dunk. Judging from the first quarter, the Clippers were beaten by the Lakers quite embarrassingly.

The reputation of the city of lobs is about to be taken over by the Lakers!
Little Jordan watched Xie Chen dunk, score, and show off on the bench time and time again, and he felt very uncomfortable.

"I can't let him be so arrogant, I can still buckle!"

If Griffin is injured, then Jordan's body is in the best condition. As the center of the first team last season, he didn't pay attention to the Lakers' inside line at all.

After the first quarter, Rivers could see that everyone was depressed and had no fighting spirit by Xie Chen. He still told everyone there, don't care about Xie Chen's dunks, alley-oops, ultra-long three-pointers and so on. Let Xie Chen do whatever he loves. We just need to play every attack well and ensure that we win.

However, now everyone doesn't listen to Rivers at all.

Jordan said to Griffin and Paul: "When I play in the second quarter, I will give Xie a good look! Paul, just pass the ball to me!"

"No problem!" Paul also showed a vengeful attitude.

Rivers was so angry that he smashed the tactical board: "Can't you understand me? Win, we want to win!"

"Coach!" Paul, who is the most dignified in the team, roared at Rivers in a rare way: "Now, what we need is to regain our momentum!"

Rivers was so yelled at by Paul that he dared not speak anymore.
