Chapter 178 Player of the Week
The general manager of the Kings, Geoff Petri, has been praised by the media many times, saying that he has "a unique vision."Not only did he get the potential stock of Xie Kai in Artest's transaction, but he also used a No. 4 pick to select Tyreke Evans, who currently seems to have top trends in both immediate combat power and potential.
Xie Kai has already started 4 games this season, tying the number of games started last season.Kevin Martin's return date is currently undecided. It is foreseeable that for a long time in the future, as long as he is healthy, his starting games this season will definitely exceed those of last season.
Right now, the biggest question everyone has about him is: How long can he continue to perform like this?In the absence of Kevin Martin, how far can he and the No. 4 pick Tyreke Evans take this Kings team?
——These can only be answered by the team's inspection.
After the Kings game with the Rockets, they have 4 full days of rest before their next home game against the Bulls.The team can take a good rest during this period of time to prepare for the next stage of the game.
On November 11, the NBA officially announced the best players in the East and West last week.Brandon Jennings of the Milwaukee Bucks in the East and Xie Kai of the Sacramento Kings in the West received the honor.
Since the new season, Jennings has almost become the rookie player with the most limelight this year. His scoring ability is unbelievable, and his scoring explosive power is too strong.
In the 4 games last week, Xie Kai started all the games. In an average of 35.6 minutes of playing time, he scored 26.3 points, 9.8 rebounds, 8.8 assists, 3.3 steals and 1.8 blocks. He performed extremely well.This is the first time in his career that he won the honor of Player of the Week, which is an affirmation of his ability.At least, it is not something that can be explained by the explosion of a game.
Xie Kai won the player of the week, which quickly became big news.You must know that the player who can receive this honor is the player with the best performance in the division in the past week.
Xie Kai not only appeared on the homepage of the official website of the Kings, but also on the homepage of the official website of the NBA.This is the most prominent place on his NBA.com homepage for the first time in his career, and it is still in this way.
Xie Kai didn't want to be on the official NBA website before because he didn't want to be a Chinese player or a man of yellow race. He felt that this was not a reflection of his own strength, and it was purely a suspicion of sensationalism, although this was not his original intention.
And to get the player of the week, to be on the front page in this way, he feels very encouraged.This is an affirmation of one's own ability, proving that one's efforts in the off-season have been recognized, which is far more convincing than those reporters writing soft articles about how awesome he is.He now feels that even if you don't pay attention to statistics in the NBA, statistics are one of the few indicators that can reflect a player's ability.
There is no trophy for the NBA's Player of the Week or Player of the Month, but this does not hinder its status in Xie Xin's mind.
"This is just the beginning. In the future, I will add more awards to my honor book. This is not the end, but just the beginning!" Xie Kai said to himself silently in his heart.
After finishing the routine training on the 15th, Xie Kai went back to the apartment to relax. At this moment, the phone rang. He took it and saw that the number was very familiar, and it was from home.
Xie Kai knows that more than 98% of the phone calls are his mother. He knows his parents too well. Even if his father wants to talk to him, he will let his mother call.
Xie Kai answered the phone, and the familiar loud voice of his mother Chen Guixiang came from the other end of the phone: "Ah Kai, are you there?"
Xie Kai muttered: "I'm not here, is it the scarecrow who is talking to you now?"
"My kid, how can there be a scarecrow here? By the way, I saw you on the computer in the store just now, on that NBA website!" Chen Guixiang's excitement was still not over, she seemed very excited, and her voice was a little bit Trembling slightly.
"What NBA website?" Although Xie Kai was asking, he also guessed in his heart that what his mother said might have something to do with the fact that he won the best player of the week.
Sure enough, Chen Guixiang quickly replied: "It's your photo that appeared on the Internet, what is that official... yes, yes, it's called 'official website'!"
Xie Kai is now finally sure that the "official website" his mother mentioned should be the official NBA website.
"It's the NBA official Internet cafe, don't you know how to use a computer to surf the Internet?" Xie Kai was a little puzzled. His mother knew best that she was an expert at playing mahjong, but she didn't know anything about computers.
Chen Guixiang said excitedly: "Don't underestimate your old mother, I will ask if I don't understand! I let me teach me one by one. She asked me to set this official website as the first page, and when I opened the button to go online, I would This official website has appeared!"
Xie Kai understood, it was his cousin Yang Yixin who taught his mother to set the official NBA website as the homepage of the browser, thanks to the brains of the little cousin who came up with such a simple and convenient method, so that her mother, born in the 60s, can also watch the NBA online information.
"Mom, I may only visit this website once a year, so you may not be able to see me when you go to this website, why do you bother so much?" Xie Kai said.
"Son, don't blame mom for being uneducated. You are usually busy and mom knows, and I can't see you. Except watching your games on TV, I just want to learn more about the NBA through this official website. I can watch it on it. Of course it’s best to see you, and if you don’t see me, you have to learn more about basketball so that I won’t embarrass you when others talk about you!” Chen Guixiang spoke seriously, and her loud voice in the past disappeared, which shows that she really meant what she meant .
Xie Kai was a little touched when he heard this, and the corners of his eyes were a little wet.He knows that "a child travels thousands of miles and a mother is worried". His parents are not very old, but as a child like himself, no matter how he is doing, they will love and pay attention to him silently behind his back.
I must succeed, so that my mother can live a more decent and happier life!Must do!
In the few days when there is no competition, Xie Kai has been insisting on training.Because his outside shooting was inaccurate in the game against the Rockets, he not only practiced outside shooting in training, but also made continuous contact shots in consciousness training.
This two-pronged approach made him feel a little tired, but in order to achieve his goal and make continuous progress, this tiredness is nothing.
The twin stars of the Kings, Xie Kai and Tyreke Evans, have been in the limelight recently, and their popularity was no less than that of the "Thunder Three" who have been famous in the league for a while.The media is hyping the concept of young people's PK in the future, and is also predicting the future direction of the league.
The Kings management is now in a very good mentality. They even think that in next year's free agent market, they may even be able to chase big fish like LeBron James.
If one of the "03 Platinum Generation" can be obtained, and the current pair of backcourt twin stars are added, the reconstruction will be officially completed.
