Chapter 136 The First Best of the Week
The game between the Nets and the New York Knicks had a huge impact on New Jersey.
These games between the Nets and the New York Knicks in a season are definitely the most important regular season games for Nets fans.
Beating the Knicks would be like Christmas for Nets fans.
Besides, it's the Christmas holiday.
It can be said that this game in which the Nets defeated the Knicks at home was considered by Nets fans as a Christmas gift prepared for them by Chen Xiao and Kidd.
After the game, Chen Xiao and Kidd had already showered, accepted interviews, and attended the post-game press conference. Many Nets fans at the scene did not leave.
Everyone was shouting the names of Chen Xiao and Kidd.
Chen Xiao's 45 points in this game is the second youngest 40-pointer in NBA history.
Kidd's 30+20 in this game is the ninth player in NBA history to achieve this statistic.
It can be said that the Nets did not just win a game in this game. The outstanding performances of Chen Xiao and Kidd also made this victory a classic that they can often recall.
Not only will they reminisce about it, but audiences across the United States will also reminisce about it and replay it.
This can be the difference between a great victory and a boring victory.
Boring victory, victory is victory, and will be forgotten after a few days.
But a wonderful victory can appear in various reviews and highlights from time to time.
In this regard, Pierce and the Dream Team are very clear.
It’s been so long since the World Championships. If we take stock of the ‘miracle’ rankings, the Dream Team 5 is absolutely indispensable.
Who made them fail in the World Championships and why every game was so exciting?
In short, after this game, Chen Xiao will become part of the Nets' history.
Even if he leaves the Nets and retires from the NBA in the future, Nets fans will recall this wonderful game when they mention Chen Xiao.
Looking at the Nets fans outside shouting wildly at his car, Chen Xiao, who was driving, was very excited.
The two beauties sitting in Chen Xiao's car also couldn't hide their excitement.
By the way, there is no Bugs in the car today.
Bugs is waiting for the bus today.
After the game against the New York Knicks, Chen Xiao took the two beauties back to his villa in New York, and the three of them did not rest.
Chen Xiao sat on the sofa and watched the two beauties decorating the Christmas tree while talking and laughing.
Christmas is approaching, and Miss Sun will stay until the end of Christmas before going back.
Miss Sun is really getting busier now.
"Chen Xiao, put this star on it."
Chen Xiao, who originally admired Miss Sun's beautiful figure, also joined the actions of the two beauties.
"Chen Xiao, what do you think about us turning one of the rooms in the villa into a music room?"
"music room?"
Chen Xiao was surprised, Miss Sun, can you still play musical instruments?
"I can't learn those complicated instruments. The music room is for Yi Ren. Yi Ren is a real genius. She is proficient in English, Chinese, and Japanese. She is also very good at cooking. Now she is ready to dabble in musical instruments and learn the cello. .”
"..."
Chen Xiao looked at the innocent beauty next to him with some disbelief.
If I remember correctly, this beauty is only 20 years old like him now, right?
Is this something a 20-year-old figured out?
Isn't this too genius?
real or fake? !
"Brother, if you look at me like this again, I will be angry. It's very rude."
Seeing the girl 'Meng Xi Meng Xi' pretending to be angry, Chen Xiao quickly apologized: "Yiren, I'm sorry."
"It's okay, I forgive you brother."
I don’t know why, but such an innocent and lovely girl is particularly dignified when she is angry.
Is this pure and untainted power?
The girl who was still 'angry' just now smiled brightly after Chen Xiao apologized.
"Yiren likes to study very much, loves to study, and has great learning ability. I am afraid that she will be bored here in the past few months, so I suggested that she try to learn some musical instruments in these few months. After she learns it, she can do it at home. What do you think about having a concert?"
"Of course there's no problem. I'm looking forward to being Yi Ren's first listener."
Miss Sun plans to use a spare room in the villa as a music room, which is a good thing.
In fact, the villa itself has a music room, but there are not many musical instruments in it. When someone buys some musical instruments and recording audio equipment tomorrow, it will basically be ready.
After buying this large villa, I originally needed to make some personalized decorations according to my own needs.
He is just a rough guy who plays basketball and is not that elegant, but he does not reject having some elegant things at home.
As arty as it is, he can also absorb Miss Han's talent.
"Chen Xiao, I don't have any ambitions in character, and I am very aloof from the world, but I like to learn very much and dabble in all kinds of interesting knowledge and skills. If you are in contact with her for a long time in the future, don't be discouraged by her. You don’t have to study with her, as long as you stay with her and watch her, she will be very happy. She is a very simple and good girl.”
"..."
Chen Xiao feels that whether Miss Han is a good girl has nothing to do with him, right?
It's only been a few months, what can he be hit with?
It’s not like we live a lifetime, and my wife is too talented, which causes too much pressure.
However, seeing Miss Sun talking to herself in his arms, Chen Xiao did not interrupt.
He always felt that Miss Sun was a little worried when she came back this time.
"Chen Xiao..."
"Um?"
After Chen Xiao came back from his thoughts, he looked at the girl in his arms doubtfully.
"You will definitely be happy in the future."
Seeing the expectation in the girl's eyes, Chen Xiao nodded seriously.
"It's not me, it's us."
On December 21, 2002, the Nets faced the Eastern Conference's underdog Chicago Bulls at home in New Jersey.
After defeating the New York Knicks at home in the last game, the Nets' home fans are now very motivated.
Of course, 10,000 Nets fans look down on the Chicago Bulls, who are almost one of the weakest teams in the Eastern Conference.
The Chicago Bulls have really played poorly this season.
There is no way, the failure to pursue Wade has hurt this team very much.
All the team's work last season was centered around getting Wade.
But in the end, they lost Wade in a very disgusting way.
Wade was the third pick, they got the fourth pick, and Wade ended up going to Miami.
David Stern makes them sick enough to want to puke.
They disgusted David Stern with showing off, and David Stern repaid them with even more disgusting methods.
This guy is determined to retaliate!
The most hated person in Chicago right now is league commissioner David Stern.
What makes the Bulls even more uncomfortable is that Wade performed very well in the Heat and has become recognized as Jordan who is five centimeters shorter.
How can you survive this?
This 'Little Jordan' should obviously belong to them, but in the end it became the Heat's.
In short, under this series of blows, the Bulls' morale is quite low this season from top to bottom.
In this game against the Nets, the Chicago Bulls did not regain their morale.
109 to 93!
The New Jersey Nets defeated the Chicago Bulls without a fight at home.
The Nets' pattern of defeating the Bulls in this game is basically the same as the Nets' pattern of defeating other weak teams in the Eastern Conference.
In the first quarter, Chen Xiao and Kidd's pick-and-roll took the lead and suppressed the Chicago Bulls.
In the current Eastern Conference, there are not many teams that can stop Chen Xiao and Kidd's pick-and-roll, and the Bulls are definitely not among them.
Even though Chen Xiao's touch in this game was not as good as in the previous game, in the first quarter of this game, Chen Xiao still easily scored 13 points on 5-for-8.
To be honest, Chen Xiao now dreams that Boss Ji has unlimited physical strength and can play pick-and-rolls with him every quarter, help him block positions, and let him shoot.
It's a pity that Brother Ji is already very physical, but he is still far from unlimited physical strength, so the pick-and-roll with him is basically a one-on-one game.
In the second quarter of the game, when the Nets used other tactics, the Bulls once again proved that they, like other weak teams in the Eastern Conference, were not only "based on the pick-and-roll", they also had no resistance to the Nets' other tactics. .
After the first half, the outcome of the game was basically determined, so in the second half, it was time for the Nets players to show off in various ways under the leadership of Boss Key.
Therefore, after the entire game, the New Jersey Nets really defeated the Chicago Bulls at home without any disturbance.
For the Nets fans at the scene, it is good to have no waves. They like this kind of game without waves the most.
If anything happens in the game, like the Knicks did in the last game, they will really be worried.
The dialogue between Qiangqiang and Qiangqiang was so exciting. I won the young model at the venue and lost the disco dance in the cemetery. It was just too exciting.
In this uneventful game, Chen Xiao made 12 of 21 shots, 4 of 9 three-pointers, and 3 of 3 free throws. While scoring 31 points, he also picked up 5 rebounds.
After scoring 45 points in the previous game, he scored 30+ points in this game.
After playing the two games between the New York Knicks and the Bulls, Chen Xiao has played 10 games in December and scored a total of 239 points.
In other words, throughout December, Chen Xiao's scoring average increased from 20 points per game before playing the New York Knicks to 23.9 points per game, which is an average of 24 points per game.
In two games, Chen Xiao relied on the Knicks and Bulls to increase his scoring average in December by 4 points.
I have to say that staying in the east is really comfortable.
If you were in the Western Conference, with strong teams coming one after another, you wouldn't have so many opportunities to adjust your state and regain your confidence.
Maybe, it will just plummet.
The goal Chen Xiao has set for himself this season is to average 25 points per game every month, so that he can have a chance to win the Rookie of the Month award every month.
Averaging 25 points per game is just a chance. It's hard to say whether he can really steal Wade's Rookie of the Month award.
After all, averaging 25 points per game in a single month is considered Chen Xiao's limit. If he were not in the Eastern Conference, he would never dare to set such an extreme goal.
But Wade...
Chen Xiao feels that averaging 20 points per game is definitely not Wade's limit.
Wade, like Boozer, is a very mature player.
Because both of them completed physical confrontation training when they were in college.
He is the kind of player who can fight immediately after coming to the NBA.
Therefore, it is quite challenging for Chen Xiao to compete with Wade for the Rookie of the Month and Wade for the Rookie of the Season.
As a result, although there are many weak teams in the Eastern Conference, Chen Xiao must concentrate every time he plays against a weak team and must not be soft-hearted.
In this game against the Bulls, Chen Xiao did not show any mercy.
31 points was the highest score in the game.
Compared with Chen Xiao, Jefferson and Martin are a little stretched.
Especially Martin.
This guy who clamored every day to be the starting center for the All-Stars this season was actually bullied by Tyson Chandler, the second-place pick of the Bulls last season.
In such a game where everyone was abusing each other, he actually scored 4 of 9, 12 points, 7 rebounds and 5 fouls.
This data is embarrassing no matter how you look at it.
Martin may have felt embarrassed himself, so at the end of the game, Martin was so embarrassed by Richard Jefferson that he couldn't hold his head up.
"I was careless in this game!"
"Yeah, I was careless. I didn't expect that I couldn't compare to a parallel importer, hahahaha..."
"..."
Kenyon Martin felt that if he punched him, he would definitely make Richard Jefferson cry.
In the end, though, Kenyon Martin held back.
"The Bulls' No. 3 Tyson Chandler is really strong."
When Chen Xiao saw Martin being so miserable by Richard Jefferson, he couldn't help but say a word for Martin.
Not that he was excusing Martin.
The main thing is that he feels that the Bulls' No. 3 is really strong. He helped defend several of his shots in this game.
His offensive ability is very good, but his defensive ability...
very nice!
only……
"That parallel import is so powerful!"
"..."
Well, Martin was the first to stand up and object to Chen Xiao's statement. This was something Chen Xiao did not expect.
It seems that Martin will be defeated when he meets the Bulls' No. 3 in the next game...
Let’s first pay a moment of silence for our team’s brother Martin.
After defeating the underdog Chicago Bulls at home, the New Jersey Nets' next game is the last game before Christmas, a home game against the Boston Celtics on December 23.
Chen Xiao is still looking forward to seeing Truth Pierce again.
I wonder if Pierce is the same as him?
Boston.
Seeing that the long-awaited day is coming, Pierce is also looking forward to and excited.
To be honest, after being defeated by Chen Xiao in the last game, when Pierce went to bed many nights, the person who entered his dreams the most was Chen Xiao.
The way Chen Xiao smiled in front of him had become his nightmare.
He hopes to forget this guy, but this guy's performance in the NBA is getting more and more exciting, and he sees him more and more times. How can he forget it?
In the end, Pierce felt that he could not expect others and could only defeat this nightmare by himself!
Of course, when Chen Xiao and Pierce were both looking forward to meeting each other, on December 22, the league announced the Player of the Week from December 15 to December 21.
On the Western side, Duncan led the team to three wins and one loss, averaging 23 points, 13 rebounds, 5 assists and 3 blocks in four games.
This data is simply a bug for an insider.
You know, in a team like the Spurs, every data is very precious.
Spurs head coach Popovich is a data smasher.
That low-tempo game was simply disappointing.
Duncan can get such data with the Spurs, which really makes people marvel at the strength of this player.
Of course, averaging 41 minutes per game makes people feel sorry for the insider's misfortune.
In fact, Chen Xiao still hasn't forgotten Duncan's sincere words to him after the game: "I hate it too."
Duncan himself doesn't like the way Popovich and the Spurs play.
Therefore, Chen Xiao has been reading news in newspapers recently about Duncan not wanting to renew his contract with the Spurs.
Duncan's 3+1 contract with the Spurs can be released from the contract next summer.
From 2000 to 2003, it took three years.
Three years ago, Duncan complained about the team's thin lineup and playing style problems, and wanted to leave.
It has been three years. Except for the slightly controversial regular season MVP he snatched from Kidd last year, Duncan has received nothing in the past three years.
As one of the strongest superstars in the league now, it is normal for such news to appear when his contract is about to expire.
It would be strange not to see news like this.
Whether it's to shake the Spurs' morale or really want to get Duncan, many teams will take action.
Even New York Knicks fans have advertised to welcome Duncan.
In short, many media experts said that if the Spurs still have no gains this season and Duncan has no gains personally, then Duncan must leave.
The team’s gain is of course the championship.
The personal gain is MVP.
If the Spurs want to win the championship, they need to break through the Lakers. This is hellish difficulty.
To get the MVP personally, you have to defeat Jason Kidd, who is currently at the top of his game. This is almost a hellish difficulty.
Therefore, it is not nonsense when these experts say that Duncan will leave after the season.
Duncan has not responded to this and has always emphasized focusing on the game.
However, Duncan's wife Amy has been telling the outside world that Duncan will not leave Texas.
Amy was also the one who stopped Duncan from leaving three years ago.
Why Amy Duncan loves Texas so much but is unwilling to leave is unknown.
In short, the news surrounding Duncan recently is very complicated and confusing.
Being able to be so focused on the game in such a chaotic environment and lead the Spurs to continuous wins, I have to say that Duncan really makes Chen Xiao respect him.
What is a career?
This is a career!
The Western Conference Best of the Week went to Duncan without any suspense.
The best of the week in the East was shared by Kidd and Chen Xiao.
The Nets won all three games on Wednesday. In the past three games, Kyle averaged 22 points, 16 assists, 6 rebounds and 3 steals per game. This data is even worse than Duncan's. It's really thanks to his relationship with Nick. Si's game was 30+20.
In the past three games, Chen Xiao averaged 30.7 points and 4 rebounds per game. This data is definitely slightly worse than the data of Big Brother Ji.
However, the alliance still allowed Chen Xiao to share it with the gay boss, mainly because Chen Xiao's data is indeed qualified to be shared with the gay boss, and it is not so abrupt when put together.
It can be regarded as a reward for Chen Xiao, a rookie.
At this point, Chen Xiao finally won the first weekly award in his career.
This is also the first Player of the Week award received by a rookie player in the 2002 class.
Due to record reasons, although Wade's statistics and performance are very good, he has not won the best of the week award so far.
A B-level game of the week award brought Chen Xiao a D-level potential card.
The moment Chen Xiao got the potential card, he used it for strength.
At this point, Chen Xiao's power potential has reached 70 points.
Strength: 62+ (70)
It has been a week since the last time he increased his strength, and Chen Xiao can once again increase his strength.
From 61 to 62, there seems to be no change.
In fact, I really can't feel much change.
But slowly, slowly, there are more changes.
In addition, Chen Xiao scored 40 points in the NBA regular season in his last game, which was also Chen Xiao's first 40 points in a B-level game, so he was also rewarded with a scoring experience card for an official game.
This brings Chen Xiao to 29 more experience cards for official competitions.
Best of the week, scoring experience card, potential card, victory...
Coupled with the fact that he has been with a beautiful woman recently, Chen Xiao feels that he has been really happy recently.
It is simply the pinnacle of life, so happy!
December 23, 2002, Continental Aviation Center in New Jersey.
If you say which opponent is the most special to Chen Xiao in the NBA, then, without a doubt, it must be Garnett, Kobe Bryant, Wade, Ron Howard and Yao Ming.
Because the first two are Chen Xiao’s idols.
The next three are Chen Xiao's good buddies and former teammates.
Of course, this is what Chen Xiao thinks is special.
For many NBA fans, experts, and media, there is no doubt that Paul Pierce is Chen Xiao's most special opponent.
The two are the official ‘World Championship CPs’ launched by the NBA.
Chen Xiao has not yet taken on this role.
But Paul Pierce of the Celtics has stepped into this role.
"Paul, don't worry, I will reduce my offense in this game and fully support you in beating Wonder Boy!"
I have to say that Antoine Walker is indeed a very open team boss.
Of course Pierce would have no objection to this.
but……
"I'm going to kill him in this game!"
"..."
Hearing Pierce say this, Walker had a headache.
Paul, are your aspirations too high?
Although it is true that a victory and defeat are not enough for what the Wonder Boy did to Paul, at least there must be a decisive victory.
but……
To beat the Nets, it needs to be a 50-50 tie with the Nets.
We did have a 5-5 draw with the Nets in our last game.
but now……
To be honest, the Nets, now ranked first in the league with 23 wins and 4 losses, are really at their peak.
The Celtics want to play the Nets on the road to a 50-50 tie, and then let Paul kill the Wonder Boy. This is indeed very difficult.
but……
"Paul, I said I will fully support you in this game!"
Looking at the smile on that increasingly fat face, Pierce was a little moved.
"In this game, I will definitely avenge my shame!"
