Chapter 170 The long-lost three-game winning streak
The reason why the Kings paused was, of course, to replace players who were inaccurate free throws and replace them with pitchers, so that they could effectively deal with the opponent's foul tactics.
When the timeout expires, the game continues.
The Kings served in the frontcourt, and the Thunder defended very strictly, preventing the opponent from sending the ball.
The Kings almost violated the serve and only sent the ball at the last second.
The Thunder did not foul, they plan to defend against a wave!
Evans spent time at the top of the arc, and within 10 seconds of the attack time, he used the top of the arc as a cover to force a wave and make a strong move-but the referee didn't call a foul!
Evans felt very wronged, he couldn't imagine that the ball was not fouled!
"Do you think it's a foul Jeff?" Mike Breen asked.
"All can be called, the foul is not obvious, but if it is the first three quarters, this ball should be called a foul. You Mike, do you know that at this critical time, the referee will not call as long as the foul is not particularly obvious. Let the players To decide the game is something that our NBA has established by convention!" Jeff Van Gundy explained.
The Thunder used up the last timeout!
Pause back, the game continues!
The Thunder saw hope, while the fans of the Kings were so nervous that their palms were sweating.At this time, if you are equalized by your opponent, it will be as uncomfortable as wanting to eat shit.
With 17 seconds left in the attack time, the Thunder teammates had enough time to complete the final attack.
Harden stands on the sideline ready to serve.
The Kings are on the defensive, defending the catch.
Harden sent it out and Westbrook caught the ball.
Durant came out to catch the ball, and Westbrook passed it...
At this moment, Xie Kai burst out from the slanting stab!
He cut off Westbrook's pass!
"Kane... Kane's steal!" The passionate shout of the DJ on the scene reminded the fans of this key defense!
After Xie Kai stole the ball, he didn't give the opponent any chance to foul. He rode the dust to the opponent's hinterland, drew his bow fully, and smashed the buckle with the battle axe!
"Bang—" Mike Breen exclaimed!
Thanks for the 17 points!The Kings lead by 5 points!
"Kane killed the game with a dunk!" Jeff Van Gundy sighed.
With Harden missing a 3-pointer from a distance, the whole game is over!
"God K, I love you!" A young female fan weighing over 200 catties shouted wantonly in the stands.
The cheers of the home team fans at the scene completely pushed the game to a climax!
"I didn't expect such an ending!" Mike Breen let out a long breath.
"Yeah, Kane's triple-double and key goals put a successful end to this wonderful game!" Jeff Van Gundy said.
The Kings are rejoicing, while the Thunder are sighing, frustration is written on their faces.
Xie Kai found Westbrook, and the two hugged each other friendly.
"I didn't turn on the water!" Xie Kai laughed.
"Of course, I didn't either! If you release the water, you are not the one I know, Xie Kai!" Westbrook said.
The Kings fans couldn't leave for a long time, and this game made them too happy.Not to mention the excitement of the game, the home team ushered in a 3-game winning streak, there is no better ending than this.
Xie Kai scored 17 points, 11 rebounds, 11 assists, 4 steals and 2 blocks in this game, and only made 1 turnover. His performance was very good.His last 3-pointer, a rebound, and a steal helped the team win the game.
At the press conference after the game, when a reporter asked Xie Kai how he felt about getting his first triple-double of the season, Xie Kai replied with a smile: "I am very happy to get a triple-double. We can get a triple-double every game! But what I value most is that we win the game. If we lose, the triple-double is meaningless.”
"You performed very well in the team's 3-game winning streak in the past. Do you think you have the strength of an All-Star?" The reporter continued to ask.
"Unless I have already won the All-Star, otherwise I will not think that I must have the strength of the All-Star. The strength is not spoken, but depends on playing. I still have a lot to improve, and it is only the beginning of the season. We are still running in!" Xie Kai said.
The news and comments after the game made Xie Kai, Evans and other Kings young players amazing.Some more exaggerated reporters wrote articles saying "Xie Kai is already the No.08 rookie in the 1 class", "Xie Kai and Evans are the best backcourt twin stars in the league in the future" and so on.
Xie Kai never pays attention to these messy news. He knows his own ability and his current shortcomings very well. He doesn't think that he is strong enough to support a team by himself.He understands the urine nature of some media. He knows that they can write any kind of news in order to gain attention.
After winning this game, the Kings have won 3 consecutive victories, and their record has also unknowingly reached 4 wins and 4 losses. For the first time this season, it has reached a 50% winning rate.The season is still very long, at least from the current point of view, the team's momentum is very good.
The management of the Kings did not expect Xie Kai to play so well after Kevin Martin was injured.Not only Xie Kai played well, but the two rookies this year, Evans and Casspi, also played very well.Looking at it this way, the team's future looks bright.
The Kings next game is against the Houston Rockets.The days of the Rockets have not been very good recently. The two stars of the team, Yao Ming and McGrady, are both absent due to injuries. The team's biggest players are Battier and Trevor Ariza.
In this way, it doesn't seem impossible for the Kings to defeat an opponent short of major generals at home.
Yao Ming fractured his left foot in the Western Conference semifinals of last season and was reimbursed for the season.The possibility of his comeback this season is also unlikely.The giant's foot injury recovery is slower than that of the little man, and his physical talent is average, so the recovery speed is even slower.
麦迪上赛季因伤只代表火箭出场35场比赛，场均出场33.7分钟，得到15.6分、4.4个篮板和5次助攻，命中率只有38.8%。
The "Yao Mai Combination", which used to be in the limelight, can only work with the sick bed. This situation is really embarrassing.
There are still 3 days before the game against the Rockets, and the Kings have enough rest and training time to deal with this game.
For Xie Kai, the Rockets no longer have special meaning in his heart.He's already a Kings player, and he doesn't hold any grudges against the team that gave up on him.In this alliance, only a strong individual can have the qualifications and capital to control his own destiny.
Although the Rockets belong to Yao Ming's team, Xie Kai will never put water on the court because of Yao Ming's relationship. This is a disrespect for the opponent's performance and disrespect for his teammates' performance.
