Chapter 222 The end of the season
On February 2, in the last regular season game of the month, the Kings continued to play at home.
Facing a strong team with 37 wins and 20 losses, the unanimous opinion before the game was that the Kings did not need to use any "skills" and could easily complete the task of losing without fighting for acting skills.
But who knows that the game is not like this.
Blessed are the Kings fans who came to watch this game, because Xie Kai, one of their team's potential stocks, broke out.
In this game, Xie Kai played 38 minutes and 59 seconds, scored 17 points in a single quarter, scored 24 points in the half, scored 40 points, 5 rebounds, 3 assists and 1 steal in the game, helping the Kings defeat a strong opponent at home!
谢开本场比赛刷新了自己多个NBA职业生涯常规赛记录:单节17分(之前最高是14分)、半场24分(之前半场最高是20分)以及出战38分59秒、(之前最高是38分01秒)。
Moreover, this is the third 3+ in Xie Kai's NBA career. He used this game to refresh his multiple career records to swear to those who questioned him that he is not a player without the potential to become a superstar.Who said that good data can only be obtained from bad teams, breaking personal records in front of strong teams and leading the team to win, such data should be more convincing!
After the game, the outside world has various views and opinions on the Kings team. Some media think that this team is too peculiar. Can actually win.It's so strange, such a team is not easy to predict the result, so people who want to gamble can be more secure, and some can only choose another team.
On March 3, the Kings played against the "rival" Los Angeles Clippers at home.
In this competition of acting skills, the Kings finally lost a game, and won unexpectedly at home, ushering in two consecutive victories.
Although the team won, the on-site camera captured a very ridiculous scene, that is, at the end of the game, the general manager of the Kings, Geoff Petri, who came to watch the game was not happy, but a little disappointed.
After the game, the bad performance behind this photo became one of the hot topics among media reporters and fans.The general manager of the Kings, Geoff Petri, became an Internet celebrity in an instant, and the topic of bad NBA teams became popular again.
The Kings did not expect the situation to develop like this. The team officially issued a clarification statement, reiterating that the general manager Geoff Petri's expression was taken out of context by troublemakers, and asked the media not to spread false news indiscriminately.
This matter gradually subsided in the end, and the Kings were not the only team that performed poorly. Everyone made a fuss about it because they were bored. After all, poor performance is a fait accompli, and there is nothing surprising about it.This happens every year, and it's not surprising.
3月3日,国王队客场不敌目前35胜23负的雷霆队,无缘3连胜。
The next day, the Kings challenged the Rockets in back-to-back away games. In this game, the old Rockets player Carl Landry broke out. He scored 22 points, 10 rebounds and 2 blocks to help the team narrowly beat his old club in an away game.
But defeating the Rockets did not put the Kings on a winning streak. Their goal was too clear. Sometimes winning a game was purely accidental.
From the 6th to the 10th of this month, the Kings lost consecutively to the Mavericks, Thunder and Trail Blazers, ushering in a wave of 3-game losing streak. Back-to-back on the 11th, they won the Raptors at home, which was a response to the league's anti-bad slogan.
Two days later, the Kings "naturally" lost to the Trail Blazers and continued to pursue more losses.
In the game against the Timberwolves on March 3, the Kings really couldn't play the opponent and had to win the game. Unfortunately, they missed the "good result" of the losing streak.
The Timberwolves are not only really bad, but also a perfect interpretation between the master of field control and the Oscar players. They have elevated bad performance to art, which makes people have to admire.
In the next two games, the Kings comfortably lost to two quasi-playoff teams, the Lakers and the Bucks, ushering in a two-game losing streak comfortably.
But in the next game, the Kings faced their direct competitor, the Clippers... In a game that didn't care about the process but only about the result, the two teams "did all they could", but the visiting team ended up with a little "accident". Won the game and missed the 3-game losing streak.
Fortunately, in the remaining 5 games of this month, the Kings were lucky to lose all the games and ushered in a 5-game losing streak.In this 5-game losing streak, they won the "acting battle" with the league's penultimate Nets team, which can be regarded as a classic battle of the season.
Fortunately, this classic battle is not the last. On April 4, the Kings defeated the Timberwolves in the "Oscar Concentration Camp" in an away game, completing an almost impossible task.
Kings coach Paul Westphal simply brought into full play his abilities other than his personal coaching ability. At the critical moment of the game, he arranged several unimaginable tactics, abruptly causing the team to make 3 turnovers in a row, and then Let the opponent go to the free throw line to score and force the opponent to beat his own team.
Under the influence of this kind of ruthless move, Rao, even the actor, has no choice.
After this game, the Kings ushered in a 6-game losing streak.After facing the two strong teams of the Trail Blazers and Spurs, they brought their losing streak to 8 games without any suspense.
On April 4, the Kings faced the Clippers at home.This will be another battle to test the pinnacle of acting skills.
In this game, the Kings were finally unable to achieve another success. They defeated their opponents at home and missed a lovely 9-game losing streak...
The fans of the home team who went to watch the game did not know whether to be happy or sad in the face of this loss.
After the game, a basketball reporter posted such a sentence on his social media: "If the draft rules do not change in the future, such ugly games will continue to appear!"
In the last 3 games of the regular season, the Kings ended their regular season trip this season with a 3-game losing streak.Their opponents in these three games are the Mavericks, Rockets and Lakers.
Xie Kai played his last game of the season at the Staples Center, which is the best place for him personally other than the Sleep Train Arena at home.
Another bad season is over. Unlike last season, the Kings did not become the bottom one in the league this season, not even the bottom one in the Western Conference.
The Nets have won 12 games a season, compared with 15 for the Timberwolves.These two are really rotten to the bottom of their bones. For the number one lottery, everyone also fought hard.
