Chapter 164 The Long-lost Winning Streak
In the third quarter, in the contest between the two teams in the starting lineup, the Kings once again had the advantage.The combination of Xie Kai + Evans surpassed Curry + Ellis in terms of performance and investment.
The double-digit point difference continued until the rotation stage. During this period, it was considered a more critical time for the Kings. You must know that in the first half, they were overtaken by the Warriors at this stage.
But this time, the Kings played a lot more patiently. With a double-digit score advantage, they can play more patiently and confidently.
Although Maggette is very powerful, he cannot reverse the game by himself after all.
When the main players of both sides come back, the Kings still have an 8-point advantage.
谢开前3节已经轰下25分6个篮板6个助攻2个抢断1个盖帽。
"Kane's current performance is perfect, efficient and comprehensive!" Mav Albert said.
"If you can win the game, it will be truly perfect! Hahaha..." Mark Jackson laughed.
Evans dribbled the ball and gave it to Xie Kai.
Xie Kai faced Ellis, took advantage of the cover, went to the right, and met Maggette.
Maggette came up to press, trying to use his strong body to force Xie Kai.
Xie Kai forcibly accelerated the breakthrough, overtook the opponent, then slowed down and leaned on the opponent with his hip, taking advantage of the time difference, and shot with one hand-the ball passed Biedlins' fingertips and flew into the basket.
"Good shot!" exclaimed groom Albert.
"Kane plays with his brain, and I think he can see that Corey's footsteps can't keep up with him at such a short distance!" Mark Jackson said.
The point difference was once again stretched to double digits (10 points)!
Xie Kai scored 27 points!
On the Warriors side, Curry and Biedrins cooperated in an alley-oop, but they missed the dunk!
Xie Kai accepted the rebound and handed it to Evans to advance.
The cooperation of the Kings is also very simple, that is, the high position allows Spencer Hawes, who has shooting ability, to set up a screen, and then Evans, who holds the ball, rushes inside!
If you pinch me, I will score the ball. This time the Warriors did not pinch. Evans leaned on Captain Jack for a layup-the whistle blew, and the ball went in!
The Sleep Train arena was boiling again, and the Kings once again played an offensive climax, which made the fans of the home team very cool.
Warriors pause!
"Kane and Tyreke's continuous efforts made the Golden State Warriors' already weak defense look so weak!" Mav Albert sighed.
"Sacramento's interior has shooting ability. The problem of the Golden State Warriors is that the interior lacks height. Even if Andris Biedrins shrinks inside, it will be difficult to prevent the opponent's impact and points!" Mark Jackson said.
After that, the Warriors' offense did not improve much, and their defense plummeted. They were quickly pierced by the Kings, and the point difference quickly reached more than 20 points.
The game entered garbage time in the last 4 minutes. Xie Kai was replaced by his teammates amid the applause of the fans and got a chance to rest early.
This is the first time Xie Kai has enjoyed watching the game from the sidelines during garbage time since he entered the league, and this is at home. This feeling is really cool.
In the end, the Kings defeated the visiting Warriors with a huge advantage of 120:101 and 19 points at home, ushering in a two-game winning streak.This is the first time they have won consecutive victories this season, and these two games are back-to-back, which greatly improves the morale of the team.
谢开本场比赛20投11中，其中3分球5投2中，罚球9罚8中，砍下32分8个篮板7个助攻3个抢断1次盖帽，且没有出现1次失误，变向堪称完美。他连续两场比赛砍下30+，是球队两连胜的最大功臣。
The Kings haven't had such fun at Sleeptrain Arena in a long time, the game has been won, and the young players on the team have performed bravely. Could there be a better result?Obviously not.
After the game, Xie Kai, Tyreke Evans and coach Paul Westphal still attended the press conference.At the press conference, a reporter asked Xie Kai: "Kane, congratulations on winning the game. May I ask you to score more than 3 points in a row in the first two games. What is your secret?"
Xie Kai said with a smile: "The secret is to believe in your own strength and make decisive shots when you encounter an opportunity. Also, strictly implement the coach's game plan and actively communicate with your teammates on the field!"
Xie Kai's answer aroused a lot of praise on the scene. This kind of answer was neither humble nor overbearing, and it was watertight.
After the game, major NBA media and magazines reported on the game after the game.Xie Kai and Evans jointly scored 50 points in this game, while Curry and Ellis only scored a poor 20 points combined.Not to mention that the Kings had a big win at home, so the answer to the "who's the better duo" question is obvious from this game at least.
Of course, the NBA is a marathon season of 82 regular games, and the performance of a game does not mean anything.But Xie Kai and Evans' outstanding performance in two consecutive games has already caused quite a stir in the league.
Charles Barkley, a well-known TNT commentator who has always looked down on Xie Kai, said in a TV program: "Although I don't like Kane Xie very much, since he started, I have to admit that his performance is All-star level! Of course, in the long run, I still insist on my consistent point of view, that is, he is not a real All-star player, and he still lacks long-term stable outstanding performance!"
Xie Kai rarely commented on anyone in public. He knew that with his status in the arena, he was not qualified to comment on these NBA stars including Barkley.As long as the other party is not too excessive, he will not deliberately respond.After all, this is the United States, and the NBA is essentially a show. Since it is a show, certain rules of the game must be followed.
The current atmosphere in the Kings team is very good, and the reason is of course because of winning.Winning makes everyone happy, and it can also cover up some unpleasant things.
In the external cooperation comments, Xie Kai and Evans are already the best future assets of this young Kings team, and they are also the current signature of the team.Many reporters wrote that the two should have a close relationship in the team and in private.But in fact, Evans and Xie Kai didn't talk very much in the team, and the relationship between the two was far more distant than what was written in the article.
Xie Kai is not a person who puts a hot face on his butt. Evans looks very proud in the team, but he doesn't cater to him.Although you are a high-ranking rookie, you are still a first-year rookie.Let my 2nd grade come to cater to you, sorry I can't.
