NBA: I am a master dealer

Chapter 217 See you in Los Angeles?

After defeating the Eagles.

Many media have begun to look forward to the Heat's 28-game winning streak and breaking the record set by the Big Three.

Because the next opponents are the Suns, Lakers, Wizards, Kings, Celtics, and Nets.

These teams, the Suns and Wizards are still quite competitive.

The former has been dismantled to pieces in the continuous trading, but their overall competitiveness is still there. Bledsoe, Knight, Luol Deng, Markieff Morris, the lineup does not look weak. Currently The record is 30 wins and 30 losses, which is not bad.

The latter is a strong team in the Eastern Conference. Although Wall's mouth was swollen from being beaten by Xue Liancheng last time, after all, the record is here. Few teams in the league dare to say that they are sure to beat them.

The rest of them all have huge belly attributes. The best record is the Brooklyn Nets, with 24 wins and 33 losses, and the wins are all losses.

and so……

As long as the Heat can guarantee their state, winning these games should not be a big problem.

Then their winning streak will come to 28 games.

In one fell swoop, he broke the record of 12 consecutive victories set by the Big Three in the 13-27 season, occupying No.2 in the winning streak.

After playing these teams, they will face challenges next.

Consecutive encounters with two strong Eastern teams, the Toronto Raptors and Cleveland Cavaliers.

At that time, it was hard to say whether it would be possible to pass.

result.

People never expected.

The Heat stumbled directly, which surprised all commentators and celebrities.

107:117
The Heat lost the fierce battle with the Suns.

The winning streak came to an abrupt end, and the 28-game winning streak also came to naught.

This result.

It was so unexpected.

Even Xue Liancheng didn't expect that they would fall in a pool of Phoenix's blood, before dawn.

In fact, there are already some signs on the way to winning streak.

The confrontation they encountered became stronger and stronger, and the opponents they encountered became more and more violent.

Why is this happening?

Because no matter the weak team or the strong team, when they met the Heat, they all used their breastfeeding energy and fought to the death. Everyone wanted to snipe the Heat, and everyone wanted to end the Heat's winning streak. Want to be the protagonist of the headlines...

The most typical is the Orlando Magic encountered in the first two games. This is a fish belly in a fish belly. They lost [-] games this season, but they actually competed with the Heat until the last moment.

Can be imagined.

how excited they are...

If it weren't for Xue Liancheng's 100% hit skill, the winning streak might not last to beat the Eagles.

and so……

In this game, all the Suns went crazy, so it is logical.

In particular, Luol Deng showed his power in a rare way. He made 16 of 9 shots and scored 24 points. This is his new high score after being traded to the Suns.

The state was very violent, and he made 6 of 4 three-pointers.

Knight also exploded, scoring 21 points with an efficiency of 11 of 31 shots.

Bledsoe is relatively average, but he also has a double-double of 13 points and 10 assists.

Markieff Morris also played well, making 15 of 8 shots and scoring 20 points.

The Suns' shooting rate is as high as 52.7%, and the offensive end is more blooming. Whenever there is an opportunity, they are willing to share the ball.

Even Loel Deng, a pacesetter in stand-up singles, also participated in screens and running positions in this game, and at the same time did not make forced shots. The ball that should be passed was passed very resolutely.

On the defensive end, all members of the Suns also worked hard, assisting in defense very actively, and making up defense very quickly.

This greatly curbed the mobility advantage of the Heat's five small lineups. As soon as many opportunities came out, they were blocked by the Suns.

In contrast to the Heat.

Without the advantage of mobility, Xue Liancheng's passing power was naturally compromised in the face of such a strong oppressive defense from the Suns.

Coupled with Wade's poor offensive efficiency and the sharp drop in threat, the defensive pressure he faces is enormous.

finally.

他全场15投7中，三分球5投1中，只拿到了18分8助攻。

It is far from the state when they defeated the Eagles in the last game.

Wade's efficiency after his comeback has been unstable. In the last game, his shooting percentage was as high as 5.00%. In the next game, he may be in the early 30.00%. In this game, he made 19 of 7 shots and only scored 16 points.

However, he sent up to 9 assists, more than Xue Liancheng.

Others can play it.

PJ-Tucker broke out and scored 20 points, Batum 14 points, Ibaka 10 points, Morris 12 points.

But in the end...

They still lost the game.

The 23-game winning streak came to an end.

Although it is a bit regrettable, this is an inevitable result, and no one can remain undefeated all the time.

Think about the benefits again.

Take off the shackles on the top of the head, and everyone can be in a relaxed state. Isn't this a good thing?
Now they don't have to tense their nerves anymore, they don't have to insist on playing with injuries in order to continue the winning streak, and they don't have to face overwhelming pressure and expectations from the outside world.

Playing lightly and starting from scratch will be more conducive to their performance in the game.

rest for a day.

The Heat did not stop their footsteps and set sail again.

Slaughtered the Los Angeles Lakers with 122:94, and spread all the anger of the ending streak on this former giants, today's belly.

What a unilateral massacre...

Iron Shell was injured again and did not play in this game.

of course.

Even if you go to war, I'm afraid it won't change anything.

The Heat are also full of injuries. Gasol Jr. continued to truce in this game, and also took two important rotations, Ibaka and Batum.

Both of them had injuries, but for the sake of their winning streak, they dared not rest and played hard.

Now that the burden was put down, Spoel simply let them have a truce.

But even without the three main players, the Heat still played super terrifying offensive firepower and implemented a dimensionality reduction blow to the Lakers.

Xue Liancheng scored 35 points and 15 assists in this game, almost destroying this former giants by himself.

Wade's state picked up a bit, making 17 of 7 shots and scoring 25 points.

The combined score of the two backcourt cores is 60 points, which is equivalent to smashing the Lakers' penalty area with just two of them.

There is no room for resistance at all.

Marcus Morris, who replaced Ibaka in the starting lineup, showed his power and scored 22 points, which is very good.

And the Lakers here.

A group of wandering soldiers are fighting independently, and there is nothing worth talking about.

The only thing worth mentioning is Clarkson, who is also a second-round pick this year, and he has already mixed into the starting lineup.

However, he was not in good form, he made 11 of 3 shots and only scored 10 points, but he had 7 rebounds and 5 assists, which is not bad...

after the game.

Kobe, who was wearing a casual suit, did not leave the field with the team, but went straight to Xue Liancheng: "Xue, long time no see."

Xue Liancheng also greeted him with a smile, "Long time no see."

The last time we met, Kobe went straight to Wade, chatting with him by the way.

This time they met, Kobe actually talked to him first...

Ok……

I don't know if this counts as a kind of recognition and progress?

Tie Hu: "You've been playing better and better recently, which makes people's eyes shine."

Xue Liancheng replied like this: "I'm not bad all the time, okay?"

Iron Shell smiled, "Haha... But I heard that you haven't been happy recently."

Xue Liancheng was stunned.

But soon, he reacted.

What Kobe said was unhappy was his contract extension with the team.

After thinking about it, he couldn't help but smiled wryly, "So... you want to say that Los Angeles welcomes me?"

Kobe was very frank: "Yes, the Los Angeles Lakers team has always had superstars to inherit, and you are the most suitable candidate in my mind."

This is the foundation of the rich.

Kobe opened his mouth like a superstar, which is a recognition of Xue Liancheng's strength, and at the same time, there is a sense of arrogance from a wealthy family in his words.

If it were someone else, I'm afraid that my heart would already be surging and my heart beating.

after all……

Who doesn't respect the giants?
Joining the Los Angeles Lakers is equivalent to adding a legendary color to one's career and maximizing one's commercial value.

But from Xue Liancheng's point of view, the so-called wealthy families are not very attractive to him.

How did the wealthy come from?

It is obtained by accumulating championship honors.

If the magician couldn't win the five championships at the beginning, it would be a breakthrough. Your magician is just a top star. Where did the superstar inheritance come from?

The so-called giants, everything is based on the championship.

The Heat already have three championships. As long as they win a few more championships in the next ten years, they will be a proper wealthy team.

These things are only deliberately created to cultivate the players' sense of honor.

To put it bluntly, there is no benefit to the players at all, it is all false...

But the big city, he yearns for.

It is equivalent to being between the first-tier metropolis Shanghai and the third-tier small city Zhuhai, where would you choose to develop?
no doubt.

Everyone will choose the magic city.

If he wants to leave Miami, his first choice is also a big city, which needs to be considered first.

Los Angeles is really good.

Hollywood is a paradise for models, entertainment, stars, proper art and celebrities. It is known as the City of Angels, and its business is booming and powerful, which is very suitable for a sports star like him.

Definitely a great place to go.

This is also the most important reason why the Los Angeles Lakers can attract superstars.

If you go to Los Angeles, except for the Lakers, it is the Clippers.

Then the Lakers will naturally be the first choice.

but……

It's too early to tell.

Xue Liancheng smiled and shook his head: "Thank you for your approval, but I don't have time to think about these things now."

Upon hearing this.

Kobe was not disappointed, but his eyes lit up, "Come to Los Angeles this summer, and I will teach you low-post skills."

When he recruited before, Xue Liancheng always refused, very resolutely.

But now, the tone has clearly changed.

No time to think about it?

In other words, it is not considered now, but it will be considered during the offseason.

How can this not make him overjoyed?

Xue Liancheng nodded: "Okay, see you in summer then."

Technology is to be learned.

As for how things will develop in the future, we will talk about it later...

Kobe was overjoyed and corrected, "See you in Los Angeles."

Xue Liancheng: "..."

……

……

The game with the Lakers is over.

The Heat ran to Washington non-stop to have a third battle with the Wizards, which was also the last time the two sides played against each other this season.

In view of the last confrontation between Xue Liancheng and Wall, there was a mouthful of output before the game.

At the beginning of the game, the two teams were not very friendly, and the physical confrontation was very fierce.

On several occasions even large-scale conflicts were triggered.

but.

The players on both sides were fairly calm.

The most important thing is that Xue Liancheng is relatively calm.

He wasn't irritated by Wall.

On the contrary, Wall pushed Lai Lai from the beginning, trying to provoke Xue Liancheng all the time.

But Xue Liancheng has been in the league for a season, and he is almost immune to these indifferent output.

In a fast break round.

The two faced off again.

Wall began to babble again: "It's very surprising that with your defensive ability, you can also top the MVP list."

Xue Liancheng just smiled shallowly and didn't even bother to answer.

Wall's speed is indeed super fast. In a one-on-one duel, few people in the league can guard against this speeding sports car.

But the problem is.

This is not a one-on-one contest.

It's a team sport.

With the support of the Heat's defensive tactics, Wall is actually relatively easy to defend. This is the basic strategy to prevent breakthroughs or shots.

As long as Wall comes in and flanks him immediately, it will make Wall extremely uncomfortable.

Especially with the comeback of Gasol Jr., with Gasol Jr. guarding the basket, the coverage area is very large.

Even if Wall breaks through two blockades, he can't do whatever he wants under the basket.

and so……

As a result, 4 minutes into the game, Wall didn't even have a chance to make a shot.

Ignored again, Wall snorted and sneered twice, and instead of holding the ball directly, he kept approaching. After a dazzled dribble, he quickly changed his direction.

But at this time, PJ-Tucker has come.

Wall became a sandwich cookie all of a sudden, and he could only jump up and pass the ball.

then.

The Wizards had to reorganize.

basically……

Wall spent the entire first quarter in this kind of treatment.

During the period, I tried to shoot, but contributed a piece of refined iron...

I don't know if it was because I played too much in the last game, which caused me to be slammed by my own fans, and my little heart was broken.

In this game, Wall deliberately reduced his shots.

If you can't force a shot, you are determined not to force a shot.

On to the second quarter.

Wall, who used to talk a lot, finally withered.

Because under the leadership of Xue Liancheng, the Heat's dead five small lineup suddenly died, playing a wave of crazy 13:3 attacks.

The Wizards fell behind by 13 points at once.

Seeing that he is about to follow in the footsteps of the Eagles, Wall still has the heart to brag...

Fortunately.

The rest of the Wizards were tenacious enough, Bill, Nene, and Gortat stepped forward one after another.

Gortat, in particular, frantically stuck in positions and grabbed rebounds. For three consecutive rounds, he grabbed offensive rebounds and converted them into points.

After halftime.

The Heat still led by 9 points.

And Wall made 4 shots and only hit 1 goal.

It gives people the feeling that they dare not make a move.

Come to the third quarter.

Both sides feel bad, engaging in bloody hand-to-hand combat.

In this quarter, neither side scored more than 20 points. The Heat scored 17 points and the Wizards scored 19 points.

At the end of the three quarters, the Heat still have a 7-point advantage.

In the fourth quarter decisive battle.

The situation changed suddenly.

Pierce hit a three-pointer, Gooden also hit a three-pointer, and Temple continued.

Directly overtake the score back.

The Heat had to call a timeout and dispatched Xue Liancheng and Wade to play in advance.

Come up for the first round.

Xue Liancheng and Wade play a pick-and-roll, Wade holds the ball, and Xue Liancheng blocks.

After blocking.

Advance side by side.

Wade turned around after feinting on the move and made a sudden cross.

After Xue Liancheng received the ball, he directly flicked the ball to the basket.

In the end, Wade flew into the sky.

Press the ball into the box.

After the whole set of movements, the coordination is smooth and smooth, very beautiful...

It finally stopped the bleeding for the Heat.

The two sides tied.

Immediately after...

I don't know if the tacit understanding between each other is too good, or if everyone is so bad, anyway, it's just a fight.

After your fight, I will appear on stage.

Except for the pleasant jingle on the field, there is nothing else...

Been playing for 4 minutes.

It was Wade who stood up and rushed to the basket, breaking the deadlock.

Strange to say.

The Heat opened up here, and the Wizards' shots followed suit.

Moreover, Wall, who has been ironed for most of the game, opened for the Wizards.

It's a pity that the good times don't last long...

The two sides just got up for two rounds and fell into a struggle again.

Can only rely on sparse free throws to increase points.

Until the last 1 minute and 45 seconds.

The few minutes of blackness have passed.

Xue Liancheng took the lead in scoring three points for the team to tie the score.

Then followed by a long pass, assisting Wade to complete the fast break and pick the basket.

Turning around, he used the "Pengci Dafa" again, and succeeded in "Pengci Wall".

Made both free throws.

The Heat lead by 4 points.

And time, the last 40 seconds left.

Wizards offense.

This goal is very critical, and only by scoring can the suspense be maintained.

If you miss, it is equivalent to walking into the abyss.

Wall broke through first, trying to tear the Heat's defense and find space.

But the Heat's defense was very tight, and the pincers forced Wall out of the ball. At the same time, someone immediately filled the vacancy.

The Wizards have little chance.

Come out organized again.

result.

After running for a long time, Wall still couldn't find a clue to attack.

Seeing that time is running out.

Wall gritted his teeth and chose to be abrupt again.

In the end, he forced a shot at the buzzer at a high position.

still none.

Gortat grabbed another offensive rebound.

After the news came out, Wall steadied himself.

then.

Unlucky for three seconds, it was thrown to Bill.

Already behind by 4 points, with little time left, hurry up and grab it.

This operation is really incomprehensible...

Still Bill is braver.

After receiving the ball.

Take a step back and make a strong three-point shot.

Bang!

Not so lucky this time.

Gasol Jr. protected the rebounds.

Throw it directly to Xue Liancheng.

The time is only the last 8 seconds.

Xue Liancheng went straight to the frontcourt, not giving the opponent a chance to foul at all.

Stepping into the middle circle and taking a step, he voted directly.

three points...

middle……

kill the game...

The score is fixed at 104:97.

Xue Liancheng performed well, scoring 16 points and 8 assists on 24 of 12 shots.

Wall, on the other hand, made 7 of 2 shots and only scored 6 points.

Although he also had 10 assists, his performance on the court was disappointing.

The fans booed again.

It's not the point that one's own star is blown away by the opponent.

The point is, if you don't even dare to make a move, how can you compete with others?
Not even the most basic courage and self-confidence, is this their head star?

What a disappointment...

The team can lose, so can you, but you can't help but make a move.

In such a fierce game, the leading star only took 7 shots, which is really surprising...

You know, the Wizards played nine players, and Wall ranked seventh in the number of shots.

Even the role players dare to show their swords, but you, a leading star, are shrinking, what a big disappointment...
