Chapter 525 The Value of Existence
"This ball is so beautiful! Kane Xie's ball is so morale-boosting!" Kevin Harlan sighed.
Noah got up from the ground and complained to the referee that Xie Kai just made a foul.
The referee told Noah that it was his defensive foul!
Of course, Noah was not convinced, and was very emotional. He explained to the referee that his action just now was in compliance, and he thought it was a blocking foul.
The K honeys in the stands couldn't bear it long ago. They told Noah with trash talk and boos that he was Luthor.
Noah was emotional and protested again. The referee was also angry and gave him a T.
Noah can only shut up obediently, because the referee has already warned him, and if he beeps again, he will give another one. Believe it or not, try it.
There were gloating applause and laughter in the stands, and Speights, who was sitting on the home team's bench beside the field, also let out a breath of anger. He was "greeting" Noah in the distance with trash talk.
Coach Thibodeau stood on the sidelines like a bastard. He wanted to use some methods to motivate the team, but he found that he didn't seem to have a good way.
Thibodeau, like his previous partner He Dou in Boston, was criticized not only for the main force, but also for the fact that they didn't have many ways to deal with emergencies, and they would only pour chicken soup on the players.
Drinking something like chicken soup once in a while can indeed stimulate the fighting spirit of the players, but if you drink it all the time, no matter how much you like it, you will feel sick.
Xie Kai walked to the free throw line and executed a tactical free throw. He made a steady hit and rewritten the score to 19:15!
Xie Kai executed the extra penalty. With the fans shouting "MVP", he steadily made an extra penalty and rewritten the score to 20:15!
Kevin Harlan said, "Steve, do you think the ball was fouled?"
Steve Kerr put away his smile and made a serious analysis: "The ball should be a blocking foul in replay. Although Jokin is standing fairly upright, his feet are not steady and are still moving. The referee's penalty is no problem. .”
"Jojin got a technical foul. I think he asked for it. He just provoked Maris, and he got a cheap one." Kevin Harlan laughed.
Steve Kerr laughed and said, "So, let's accept it if you see it. Jokin thought he was in Chicago!"
The momentum of the game was completely controlled by the Grizzlies. In less than 30 seconds, neither team scored. At the end of the first quarter, the Grizzlies led by 20:15.
As soon as the game started in the second quarter, the Grizzlies brought Speights back, and on the Bulls side, Boozer came up to replace Noah, and Belinelli came up to replace Ruhr Deng.
"Tom's rotation is small enough, a total of 8 people?" Kevin Harlan asked.
Steve Kerr said: "A total of 8 people, it seems that there will be no increase, unless there are abnormal circumstances."
The Bulls went first, and Nate Robinson, the little potato, dribbled the ball.
Nate Robinson is not yet 29 years old, but has already started to roam the league.As a point guard, his offensive power is acceptable, but his organizational ability is his weakness. He is most suitable for his role positioning and is the spoiler of the second team.
You must know that he is only 175cm, not even bare feet, but he is indeed the only player in the league who has won the 3-time slam dunk contest.
Of course, the slam dunk contest is different from the 3-point contest, and there are somewhat subjective factors in it, and his height similar to that of Tudou Webber back then allowed him to earn enough emotional points when he accepted the scoring.
In the eyes of Chinese basketball fans, Nate's volleyball hat Yao Ming is still vivid in his mind.This bullet speed and explosive power are really jaw-dropping.
Nate breaks through with Boozer's pick-and-roll, but he doesn't give the ball to the big man as accurately as Deron, but chooses to hit the basket by himself!
Little Tudou faced Speights and sprinted forcibly, causing a foul!
Nate made two free throws, and the point difference was rewritten to 20:17!
The general dribbled over and gave it to Xie Kai.
With the help of the screen, Xie Kai rushed to the basket at the moment when the opponent's flanking and changing defenses were unclear, a master layup, and a hit on the board!
Answer ball!
"Kane's reaction speed is really fast!" Kevin Harlan sighed.
Steve Kerr said: "There are no big men of full size on both sides now, and the frame protection is a problem."
Looking back, Nate continued to attack Speights after the pick-and-roll. This time, Xie Kai dropped the shot and helped defend the basket.
Nate's field of vision was limited, and Xie Kai, who helped defend him, blocked him with one hit and two at the basket!
Xie kicked off the ball and passed it to Ellington, who was going down the frontcourt, and the latter made a jumper-hit!
The point difference was stretched to 5 points!
Looking back, Boozer missed a jumper!
Arthur closed the board and handed it over to Xie Kai.
Xie Kai came over with the ball, faced **, bowed to Buddha after a cross step, then stepped back with a cross under his crotch, and shot a jumper——Yes!
The point difference is 7 points!
There is a timeout on the sidelines!Coach Thibodeau held the tactical board with a helpless look on his face.Obviously, without Rose in his hands, his momentum is a little weak.
The FedEx Arena was full of cheers. Just now, Xie Kai led the defensive counterattack, which was refreshing to watch. It seemed much more exciting than the slow-paced strikes between the two sides in the first quarter.
After the timeout, the Bulls immediately switched back to the main force, while the Grizzlies still maintained the second team.
The Bulls' offensive lineup lacks a starting point without Rose leading it. Except for Noah's support at the free throw line, most of them are singles with personal ability. The tactics are extremely simple, and the number of passes is the lowest in the league.
Lacking sharp-knife players who can tear apart the opponent's line of defense, relying on singles, and not having a single player of Kobe's level, do you really expect Boozer's jumper to kill the opponent?Do you still expect Hinrich to hit 10 3-pointers in one game?
The Grizzlies controlled the offensive rhythm on the field. Although everyone's offensive efficiency was not high, they were still the active side.
At the end of the half, the Grizzlies led by 46 points 38:8.
谢开半场得到12分4个篮板3次助攻2个抢断2个盖帽，表现是贼全面。
In the second half of the game, there were no waves, and the Bulls didn't even organize a decent counterattack.The two teams are determined to carry out the ironwork to the end.
In the end, in this iron battle, the Grizzlies at home were superior and had the last laugh. They defeated the Bulls 85:71 and ushered in two consecutive victories.
Xie Kai played 37 minutes and 12 seconds in this game and scored a game-high 25 points, plus 10 rebounds, 6 assists, 3 steals and 3 blocks. He performed very well.After the game, he was surrounded by reporters for interviews. Obviously, when he was absent, the team suffered the longest 3-game losing streak of the season. After his comeback, he is currently winning [-] consecutive games and is in a hot state. His importance is self-evident.
After winning this game, the Grizzlies ranked third in the Western Conference with a record of 16 wins and 6 losses.
