Super all-around point guard

Chapter 685 Horton's Provocation!
James ignored his agent's dissuasion and clicked to send the content. James is a basketball lover first, and Xie Chen's opponent second, a player of the Cleveland Cavaliers. Anyone who is fanatical about basketball can't help being excited when he sees such a dunk.

If Xie Chen and Magic Johnson announced the return of the Lakers to SHOWTIME a few days ago, it was still questioned, but at this moment, no one doubted it anymore. Even the Lakers in the Magician era have never brought such a pleasing gorgeous performance to the audience.

Xie Chen’s ball is not only excellent in creativity, Xie Chen and Ingram’s ability is outstanding, and their artistic appreciation is very strong.

Simply, everything was perfect, and the two succeeded on the first try!
Zach Laven was stunned. He just played a dunk from the free throw line with a big windmill. He thought he had surpassed Xie Chen. Even if Xie Chen played the crotch dunk from the free throw line, it was at best comparable to Zach Laven. However, Xie Chen's double dunk from the free throw line absolutely crushed him!If this is the slam dunk contest and someone scores it, there is no doubt that Zach Laven will lose to Xie Chen again!

"Xie is really a genius dunker! Losing to him is not wrong at all, but Xie's dunk idea is good, and his partner Brandon Ingram is indeed a very talented dunker, but it doesn't fit together with Xie. Brandon's figure is a bit bigger, and he is not as good as Xie in the air. If it were me... I am about the same size as Xie, and the time in the air is the same. This dunk will be more perfect. Unfortunately, I am a player who is not eligible for the All-Star Game. Let me and Xie be on the same team. I am afraid that I will not have a chance in the past few years!" Zach LaVine also sighed softly, how much he wanted to do this move with Xie Chen, I believe this is what the fans are looking forward to seeing, but LaVine blamed himself for not being able to make it to the All-Star.

Xie Chen was excitedly giving Ingram a high-five to celebrate at the moment. He didn't know what Zach Lavin was thinking. The Lakers bench was all crazy, and even Luke Walton had no coaching demeanor at all.

I don’t know what’s going on today, but everyone was following the free throw line. Xie Chen and LaVine dunked at the free throw line. After that, Wiggins got a chance and also played a jumping dunk from the free throw line, while the others frequently got free throw opportunities and went to the free throw line.

The original lead of the Timberwolves was chased back by Xie Chen's shocking dunks, and the momentum returned to the Lakers. In the second half, the Timberwolves played very hard. Not only was Xie Chen still strong, but what was even more frightening was that the rookie Ingram had also entered an unprecedented hot state.

After being taught a lesson by Wiggins in the first half, Ingram played surprisingly well in the second half. Not only did he have better restrictions on Wiggins, but he also hit mid-range jumpers one after another in singles against Wiggins.

When facing the same rookie Dunn in the same year, Ingram shot more resolutely, directly ignoring the opponent's shots, and also caused Dunn's 2+1.

"Ah!" After making the shot and adding a penalty, Ingram shouted excitedly after he successfully singled out Dunn. At this time, he had already scored 25 points, and it was still early.

"Great job!" Xie Chen saw that his teammates played a high-level game that had not been played for a long time, and stepped forward to encourage him.

Ingram smiled. Today he was the No. 5 pick on the court, but Dunn was the best. At this time, Dunn scored less than 10 points, and there were not many assists, but he made a lot of mistakes. I am afraid that Dunn will have to wait a little longer if he wants to compete with Ben Simmons and Ingram for the best rookie.

Dunn, who had scored 30 points in two consecutive games, stopped playing, but the mighty Karl Downs was still as strong. In only the second season, he completely suppressed Mozgov in terms of statistics.

Six fouls by Mozgov!

The sixth foul was when Karl Downs received the ball from a position near the free throw line. Ingram was about to go forward and take it out, but Towns changed direction and avoided Ingram's interception.

"Although there is no suspense in winning this game, but this guy Downs was able to get Mozgov off the field with six fouls. This guy is really not easy. It's only his second year." Xie Chen also showed his appreciation to Downs.

Veteran Garnett didn't have much time to play this game, which led to the fact that Xie Chen didn't exchange much trash talk with Xie Chen. From the first season of Xie Chen, Garnett knew that it was impossible to stop this rookie with his current ability, and it was even more impossible now. He has decided that this is the last season of his career. After this season, he will officially choose to retire and join Pierce.

At the end of the game, the Lakers defeated the Timberwolves by six points, and the winning streak reached nine games. Both sides expressed no regrets about the result, and they had done their best. Even the San Antonio Spurs lost to the Lakers. The Timberwolves' ability to persist until the end is enough to show their strength.

After the end, Xie Chen had a good relationship with Wiggins and LaVine of the same class, so he shook hands and said goodbye one by one. When he met Garnett, Garnett was not as hostile to Xie Chen as before. Seeing that the wolf king no longer had the sharp tit-for-tat eyes of the past, Xie Chen couldn't help feeling that the wolf king was really old. After all, Garnett has passed the age of forty now, he is 40 years old!
Garnett looked at Xie Chen and said: "A few days ago, when my teammates thought of playing with you, they were all so excited. This game was really exciting. Winning or losing is no longer important. I have experienced many great stars. When I entered this league, Michael Jordan was still there, and there were Hardaway, Olajuwon, O'Neal, Kobe, McGrady... one after another. In the future, I think I can proudly say that I am the same as the two strongest guys in NBA history People who have fought against each other. I believe many people will envy me."

Xie Chen felt very flattered. Garnett had played against Michael Jordan, and also against Xie Chen. He meant that the two strongest players in NBA history were Jordan and Xie Chen. This was a kind of appreciation and recognition for Xie Chen. Before, the two sparred each other and confronted each other on the court. Xie Chen was really not used to Garnett becoming so warm.

After thinking about it, Garnett really didn't have the ability to confront Xie Chen. Thinking of this, Xie Chen couldn't help but feel a little sad.

Xie Chen looked at Garnett with a smile and said: "You are the only legend in the active league. In the past 20 years, the league has always been indispensable to you. I think after you leave, many people will not be used to the league without you."

Xie Chen and Garnett cherished each other, and it also moved other people around them. After that, Xie Chen accepted an interview on the court. The reporters asked him questions about the double dunk at the free throw line. They asked him how he came up with this idea, and whether he was worried about throwing the ball badly.

Ingram is very happy today, because he was included in one of the most exciting dunk performances in NBA history!He especially thanked Xie Chen for giving him this opportunity to participate in this great slam dunk together, and this time he scored more than 30 points, beating his opponent in the No. 5 show in the same year, so after the game, they clamored for a treat together, and guys like Nick Young also wanted to relax and celebrate their nine-game winning streak. Xie Chen accompanied them to the nightclub and invited Wiggins by the way.

Although Wiggins lost the game, it did not affect his entertainment mood in the slightest. He came out with Zach LaVine, Towns, and Garnett, and met Xie Chen and other Lakers players in a nightclub.

Karl Downs likes to smoke a lot. He drank a lot. While puffing, he looked at the Lakers players and asked, "Hey, did you say that the Lakers have lost too few games? It's been a month since you played, and you only lost one game. Even if you meet the Warriors next time, you will lose at most two games. When will you be normal?"

Nick Young said: "Hahaha, we are considered normal now. Do you think we are still the Lakers of last season? Don't look at who is leading the team now. How can it be so easy to lose? Listen, we are rushing to break records this season!"

Nick Yang's big words made Xie Chen almost spit out the wine he just drank. Xie Chen said that he would play SHOWTIME to get a good ranking in the regular season, but he never said that he wanted to break the record.

Karl Downs laughed and said: "Haha, you are too arrogant. The Golden State Warriors broke the record last season. If you want to break the record again, you have to reach 74 wins and 8 losses in this regular season. This is too unrealistic, man, I won't believe it anyway."

In such a long regular season, only losing 8 games does sound a bit unrealistic. Although the Lakers have only lost one game now, they will face the Warriors again. If they meet the Warriors and lose again, they will lose two games.

Several people were bragging, and Nick Young, who was dumped by his girlfriend, couldn't help scolding Russell, who was in the same class as Downs, from time to time. After that, he seemed to see a very nice beauty in a nightclub.

Nick Yang glanced up and down at the guy wearing glasses, and didn't want to cause trouble, so he sarcastically said to the yellow-haired guy in front of him: "That's really a waste."

Immediately, I wanted to leave.

But the man stopped Nick Young suddenly and asked, "Are you Nick Young from the Los Angeles Lakers?"

Nick Yang nodded triumphantly. It seems that his reputation is not bad. When he goes out to meet fans, he wonders if he will give away the beautiful woman in his arms?

But what Nick Yang didn't expect was that the man laughed contemptuously, and said, "So it's the teammate of that liar who took drugs, hehe, no wonder he's so rude."

"Drug liar? Who are you talking about? Who are you?" Nick Young didn't understand what this guy meant, but it seemed that he had a relationship with a certain Lakers player.

The man smiled and said, "It's the one who pretends to be a hero in the Olympics. A basketball player insists on being number one in swimming. Who doesn't know that he is a liar who takes medicine? As for me? My name is Mark Horton, and I am an Australian swimmer."

Nick Young doesn't pay attention to the Olympic Games or swimming. He doesn't know who this Mark Holden is. He only knows Phelps. However, no matter how good this guy is, his words are obviously satirizing Xie Chen. Of course, Nick Young can't listen anymore. He immediately grabbed Holden: "What are you talking about? Who are you calling a liar?"

Towns happened to come over to see this scene, quickly pulled Nick Young away, and scolded like an old Jiang Hu: "Hey, are you crazy? The regular season has already started, do you want to fight at this time because you don't want to play again?"

Horton knew that Nick Young would not dare to beat him, so he had no fear, and said to Nick Young: "I'm talking about Chris Xie, the soul of your team. He can't beat me without taking medicine. If he is not convinced, tell him that I can compete with him fairly at any time. He will not dare to compare with me, because he is a liar who only takes medicine to get No. 1! Hahaha!"

Horton also seemed to have drunk a lot, just as he was mocking Xie Chen wantonly, a voice suddenly appeared.

"You want to compare with me?" Xie Chen heard that Nick Yang had a dispute with someone, so he came over, but he didn't expect that the opponent was Horton, and Horton dared to provoke Xie Chen!This is not to die!
Horton took a step back in shock on the spot. Not only Xie Chen rushed over, but behind Xie Chen stood Ingram, Wiggins, Garnett and other big basketball players, and all of them had fierce eyes, as if they were going to eat him!
　I was so excited about what I wrote in the last chapter, but I didn’t even give a reward!
