After the game, the players from both sides shook hands and paid tribute to each other. The Raptors players were obviously unwilling. After all, they worked hard for three and a half quarters, and the score was always evenly matched. Unexpectedly, at the last minute, a rookie boy disrupted the game, and two goals determined life and death.

The Raptors are not a team that often collapses in the fourth quarter, and such teams do exist. The most familiar to domestic audiences is the Rockets in the Yao Mai period. Team Rocket: The first section is a comedy, the second is an action movie, the third is a thriller, and the fourth is a disaster movie.

Every loss of the Rockets affects the hearts of Chinese fans on the other side of the ocean. Although Yao Mai has left, the Rockets are still one of the most affectionate and well-known NBA teams in the hearts of Chinese fans. Next, Xie Chenyu The opponent is the Houston Rockets!

When Xie Chen shook hands with Lowry and touched shoulders, this guy said arrogantly, I have already figured out your offensive routine, and I will definitely guard against you next time, Xie Chen just smiled lightly, and said thank you, let Lowry felt baffled.

After the game, Bosh, who scored the highest score in the team, was interviewed by reporters. Xie Chen, who had not had time to change his clothes, was suddenly called over by team president Pat Riley, which flattered him. Riley is a high and mysterious existence to Xie Chen, just like the master in martial arts novels. Since joining the Heat, Riley has never talked to Xie Chen alone. This is the first time.

Riley is very tall, he is almost as tall as Xie Chen, but at the age of 69, his temples are already gray, and when he smiles, he can clearly see the traces of crow's feet at the corners of his eyes: "Well done, Chris Xie, you got two pairs today And help the team win at the critical moment. This is only your third game. As far as a rookie is concerned, your performance is undoubtedly outstanding. In fact, I have noticed you since the first game. The regular season starts Since then, you have surprised me very much, and I have always wanted to find an opportunity to talk to you about your position and role in the team."

Xie Chen respected Riley, not because he is the president who can control his life and death, but because of his status as a coach. Riley has always been Xie Chen's most admired NBA coach.

Xie Chen said: "I am very honored, Mr. Riley, in fact, I have admired you for a long time, and I have always wanted to find a chance to chat with you."

Riley smiled: "Really? The one who should be honored is me, ha ha. Today I noticed your breakthrough posture, the center of gravity is very low, and several times you want to squeeze through with your body. The reason I want to talk to you is that your body is at a disadvantage even in a point guard. If you want to be a threatening point guard, you must improve your strength. I am going to send you a special force Trainer, what do you think?"

Hearing this, Xie Chen felt overwhelmed. In fact, he had already planned to gain weight and improve his strength: "Mr. Riley, I really don't know what I should say to express my current mood."

Riley patted Xie Chen on the shoulder and said with a smile: "Haha, you are too alien, you joined the Heat, we are a family, we are a whole, apart from this, there is one more thing, I have already I told Coach Spoelstra that you will be the starter in the next game."

"Starting?" Xie Chen's mood that had just calmed down surged again! Xie Chen has coveted the position of starting point guard for a long time. Chalmers, as the veteran of the Six Dynasties of the Heat, has created a big obstacle for Xie Chen. The previous two games with 30 points per game can not shake his position. I didn't expect to get a double-double today and beat Chalmers!

"Thank you for the president's trust! I will definitely not let you and the coach down!" This is really not easy for a person of yellow race.

After this game, it wasn't just Pat Riley who looked at Xie Chen differently. The team boss Wade also appreciated Xie Chen as a rising star. When he finished changing his clothes and was about to leave, Wade first asked Xie Chen where he lived. , after learning that Xie Chen lives in a civilian community where the birds don't shit, I invited Xie Chen to sleep at his house tonight on the spot.

Xie Chen was disrespectful to Wade's initiative to show his favor. Speaking of which, Wade in his peak period was also one of Xie Chen's most admired players. It is undoubtedly an excellent thing to be able to get closer to his idol.

Wade's wife, Union, personally cooked for the warm reception. Xie Chen also drank some wine with the newlyweds. After dinner, Wade and Xie Chen came to the basketball court in the villa, which was purchased by Wade two years ago. A villa with six bedrooms, a home bar, a game room and a tennis court, with a living area of ​​13,000 square feet and stunning sea views of Biscayne Bay at the doorstep.

With the cool breeze, Wade threw Xie Chen a cigarette named "American Spirit". This cigarette is as popular as the White Marlboro. Tobacco leaves and tobacco products, Xie Chen took them and lit them. After drinking and eating, he took a deep breath and said with a smile: "When I have money, I will also buy a villa of this size in Miami."

Wade smiled and said: "Haha, I believe that day will come soon. Coach Spoelstra has already told me that you will start the next game. I will give you more opportunities on the court in the future. Your future is not good." Limit, keep working hard."

Xie Chen picked up a basketball and suddenly asked, "Do you want a bullfight?"

Wade said calmly: "Are you sure? It's not that I look down on you. You are really not my opponent in bullfighting, not even Kobe."

"Kobe is the number one person who claims to be one-on-one. It seems that you are not as humble as him." Xie Chen joked.

Wade waved his hand: "That's what Kobe is like. He wants to be number one in everything, and he has to compare himself to Michael in everything. He lives too tired. I don't like this kind of life. I think people should reach a certain age. Resign to fate and change the way of life and game. The Lakers are struggling this year. Those old guys on ESPN ranked Kobe Bryant 40th. Needless to say, he has to prove himself with full firepower. Why bother when he is old? If he gets injured again at the right time, he will not be able to play the last two seasons of his career."

Xie Chen noticed Wade's current mental state of depression, and said: "You have seen it a lot. I remember that in 12 years, you were only included in the third team. Scored more than forty points."

Wade looked thoughtful in a trance: "Haha, it's all in the past. My whole career has been to prove myself, to prove myself to those people, hey, open your eyes and see clearly, how strong I am! But Now."

Wade shook his head and didn't continue talking.

In fact, Xie Chen has always had a question in his heart that he wanted to ask Wade, because this question is too private, and it is not easy to open it. Now at his house, both of them drank some wine. Mouth: "Boss, do you... hate LeBron?"

This summer, the Miami Heat were in turmoil. LeBron James’ departure had a great impact on the Heat, especially Wade. At that time, in order to keep James, Wade took the initiative to choose to jump out of the contract in advance. You know, his contract will not be until 2015-2016 The season has just expired, and the total amount is as high as 41 million US dollars. Unfortunately, even when Wade jumped out of the contract and prepared to cut his salary with Bosh to keep James, James still decided to leave.

After that, Wade and the team signed a two-year contract worth 31 million US dollars, which caused Wade to lose a sum of money in vain. Of course, for Wade, he may not value the money, but for his brother's departure , Emotional abandonment or betrayal, he must not be without a trace of complaints.

"It's all over, buddy, I don't hate him, we had a glorious experience, that's enough, it's a pity, those glorious days, without you." Wade said.

"There will be more in the future, and we will make it to the finals." Xie Chen was full of confidence, but the veteran Wade shook his head. Maybe he didn't want to hurt the young man's self-confidence, so Wade took the initiative to pick up the basketball , Said: "Your three-pointers and mid-range shots are very good, but your layup skills are not good. For an ordinary point guard, layup ability is not very important, but I know what you want to do. Point guards, not Stephen Nash type, but Westbrook, Rose type point guards who are offensively threatening, right?"

Xie Chen smiled shyly, this kind of behavior of snatching Wade's offensive ball, how embarrassed to admit it.

Wade continued: "Now, I will officially teach you my layup skills, Mi Zongbu."

"Misty step!" Wade's famous stunt is also his usual layup method after breaking through. He has used it countless times to confuse opponents and perform all kinds of wonderful layups or dunks. It is definitely beneficial to be given one or two pointers by him.

Wade held the basketball and began to teach Xie Chen like a mentor: "The first step of the lost step is also the most important step. After the fast break hits the basket, face the defender, because your speed has risen, and The opponent is stationary, which means that every movement of yours will greatly affect the judgment of the opponent. You first rush to the right to the defender, forcing the defender's center of gravity to follow you to the right."

"The opponent will definitely make some moves, even if it is subconscious, and then quickly change the direction and pull the ball directly to the left. At this time, pay attention to keeping a distance from the opponent's body and not hitting the opponent. After that, you can according to the situation at the time, Choose a layup method or a direct dunk, come on, defend me, and I will show you."

Xie Chen stood under the basket, concentrating on it, and Wade dribbled the ball to kill him quickly. His stray steps changed left and right, which made Xie Chen hard to defend. Finally, after Wade tricked Xie Chen's defense, he actually staged a dunk! Xie Chen wanted to step forward to block the cover, but was knocked down to the ground by him!

Damn, why is this guy so strong! It turned out that he was faking his poor state on the court!
