Chapter 482: Back to the top 8 in the east!


Wade's expression is exaggerated, and he is about to play in the playoffs. The biggest theme of the Eastern Conference playoffs this year is James VS Xie Chen, which is the showdown between the Cavaliers and the Knicks. Unexpectedly, Xie Chen wanted to meet the strongest Cavaliers in the East in the first round!
This is by no means a wise choice. Wade knows that Xie Chen has always been unfathomable. In the face of James, he has won once and has enough confidence, so Xie Chen may want to defeat James in the form of black eight!
"Xie's idea is too crazy, and if LeBron knows it, he will surely go crazy." Wade thought secretly.
Now James’ mood is really not good. The All-Star lost to Xie Chen in the dunk contest on the weekend, and then encountered Yong|pig|pig|island|novel www.[zhu][zhu][]shi, Spurs, etc. All the strong teams in the Western Conference lost in a mess. These two teams have the most chance to win the Western Championship. James regarded their game as a finals exercise, but the result was their disastrous defeat, which made him very depressed.
Many people say, including Irving, that if the Cavaliers stayed healthy last season, they will definitely defeat Xie Chen's Heat to advance to the Finals. As long as they reach the Finals, they will definitely win the championship.
Between the words, the Warriors will not be taken into consideration at all. The reporter told Owen's words to the Warriors' dream chasing Green. Green's expression was very interesting. He rolled his eyes and said: "If? If I go a little higher, I Can it be Anthony Davis!"
Wade didn't understand why Xie Chen wanted to meet the Cavaliers in the first round. It wasn't Wade's belief that Xie Chen wanted to black James, but he had no choice. Xie Chen opened the subject and asked Wade: "What do you think of the situation this year? Which team do you think is the most promising to win the championship?"
Wade said: "Frankly speaking, I think this year's Warriors will still reach the Finals. They have a greater chance of winning the championship. Maybe you think your team has already killed the Warriors, but if they meet in the Finals, it will be completely Different contests, unless you still have the ability to use it."
Xie Chen smiled and looked into the distance. If you can still make it to the finals this season, if you meet old opponents in the finals, should it be a very pleasant thing?
...
After defeating the Heat, in a blink of an eye, the journey of March has begun. Cameron Anthony returned to the team. The Knicks defeated the Blazers and Celtics one after another. On this day, they finally rose to the eighth place in the east!
The New York Knicks are back in the playoffs!
The Knicks became the eighth in the East. It has become the focus of the entire league. In any past year, no one will pay attention to a team ranked eighth, but this year is different, because of the existence of Xie Chen, everyone knows this eighth. How scary is the real strength.
The Cleveland Cavaliers also got the news for the first time.
"The New York Knicks are now eighth in the east." Delavidovar reported to James, smiling, "Maybe our first round opponents are them."
James was completely dismissive. The leader of the first team in the Eastern Conference record: "They have finally caught up, there is still a month before the end of the regular season. They should be able to rush to the fifth or sixth place, so it is unlikely to be our first round Opponents, ah, although I also want to solve them in the first round, but Xie will definitely try my best to avoid us first."
...
new York.
Xie Chen invited teammate Anthony, coach Fisher and President Phil Jackson to dinner at home, after dinner. Several people came to the gym, and Xie Chen explained the reason for inviting them to come.
"Actually, I invite you to come over to discuss something with you." Xie Chen said.
The Zen master smiled his eyes and sat on a fitness equipment: "I've guessed you have something for a long time. Calling all three of us, it must be a big deal, please tell me."
Xie Chen also stopped talking and said, "We have another month to end the regular season. According to our current win rate, if there are no injuries and luck is not too bad, we may rush to the fifth position in the east. In that case, we may meet the Miami Heat in the first round, and I don’t want to run into them in the first round."
Fisher saw Xie Chen’s mind: "I understand what you mean. You want to take the initiative to choose a team to be the opponent of the first round. Although the Miami Heat have an unstable record, it is definitely very difficult to reach the playoffs. The entwined opponents, Dwyane Wade and Chris Bosh, have both won the championship and reached the finals many times. Hassan Whiteside's inside defense will also cause us a lot of trouble. Plus that is your old owner and your first team in the NBA, you definitely don’t want to meet them. Xie’s idea I agree, in addition to trying to avoid the Miami Heat, we also want to avoid Cleveland knight……"
Fisher didn’t finish, and was interrupted by Xie Chen:
No, I mean, except for the Miami Heat and the Chicago Bulls, it’s okay to fight anyone in the first round! The Cavaliers don’t matter!

"What?" The three of them froze at the same time. If they didn't want to play against the Heat, it could be understood that Xie Chen didn't go up and down emotionally, but why did the Chicago Bulls avoid it? Indeed, the Bulls are also very strong, but no matter how strong they are, the Cavaliers?
Anthony puzzled: "Why do you avoid the bull but not the knight?"
Xie Chen replied: "Every time I play with these two teams, I feel very uncomfortable. Frankly speaking, playing with them will make me feel less confident."
The three listened to each other, and the answer really shocked them. Of course they knew that the answer was too far-fetched, but Xie Chen was the most crucial person in deciding how far to play in the playoffs. Since he even said "no "Confidence", then these two teams must not meet!
The always calm Zen Master couldn't sit still anymore. He thought that with the strongest ace Xie Chen, he could sit back and relax in the playoffs and enjoy the championship trophy. I didn't expect Xie Chen to have something to fear!
The master quickly said: "Fisher, show me the ranking of the east now."
Fisher quickly took out the paper and pen, wrote the ranking without thinking, and handed it to the Zen master. The Zen master glanced from the first place to the eighth place: knight, raptor, bull, eagle, heat, walking The Celtics and their New York Knicks.
The Zen master pondered for a moment and asked Xie Chen a question: "Xie. Every team will try to avoid the opponents they don’t want to meet, but do you know that some things are beyond our control, maybe we can control our record, But we can't decide the Chicago Bulls and Miami Heat records, the next month. The possibility of the ranking change is very high, the Chicago Bulls may fall to the fourth and fifth in the east, the Miami Heat records may rise, we may There is no way to avoid them perfectly."
"There is a way." Xie Chen stepped forward and took out a pen to circle the first-ranked Cavaliers and the second-ranked Raptors. "I just want to avoid the Miami Heat and Chicago Bulls. Team, I don’t care about any other opponents. The ranking of these two teams will definitely change a little in the next month, but no matter how they change, the first and second positions of the Cavaliers and Raptors. It should not be changed, at least. , The throne of the Cavaliers East will never change, so we only need to firmly occupy the seventh and eighth positions."
Xie Chen said, all three were startled, and Anthony said aloud, "Thank you, are you crazy? Do you want to hold on to our eighth place? Just to fight the Cleveland Cavaliers in the first round? No, no, you must have eaten something wrong. The Cavaliers are more terrible than those two teams! The first round is the first in the Eastern Conference. It is never a wise choice. If this is the case, the Celtics and the Pacers. I don’t know how to kowtow to thank us!"
It's normal for Anthony to be excited and surprised. After all, anyone who hears such a crazy idea will feel too crazy. The Cavaliers are the strongest team in the East. It makes no sense to avoid weak teams against strong teams, unless from the perspective of taking the championship, everyone is the same, anyway, they will meet sooner or later.
The Zen Master was also shocked: "Xie actually kept the eighth position in order to avoid those two teams. Why did the Bulls and the Heat make Xie so fearful against the Cavaliers? Just a few days ago, he played with the Heat, obviously. It’s easy to win!"
The more you can't guess, the more worried the Master is. You know, Xie Chen is the only guarantee for the Knicks championship!
The Zen Master looked at Anthony, who was excited, and comforted: "Do it according to Xie's ideas. He is the key to our team. We must respect all his ideas. I believe that his approach is not without reason. Next If I guessed right, you should let the plan deliberately lose the game from time to time to guarantee our seat at the end of the playoffs?"
Xie Chen nodded: "Of course we have to fight for the seventh, the Toronto Raptors, not the Cleveland Cavaliers, I mean, even the Cavaliers, not the Bulls and the Heat."
Anthony thought for a while, then said with a smile: "Actually, I think you are too nervous, no matter who you meet, if our goal is the championship, then it makes no sense to avoid anyone in the first round, I will meet sooner or later."
"Yeah, Cameron is right, you can't hide from what you want to avoid, even if you avoid the Bulls and Heat in the first round, what about the second round? I think they may be promoted in the first round Sex is also very big." Fisher also melancholy.
Fisher said this, the Zen Master was even more worried. Now Xie Chen just found a way to avoid the Bulls and Heat in the first round. What about the second round? What if the Heat and the Bulls are destined for a team to reach the Eastern Conference Finals? If Xie Chen really can't play these two teams, does that mean that they will be ruined when they meet their championship?
Xie Chen also sighed. There was no way to avoid it in the first round. If he met again next time, he would have to bite the bullet.
...
In the decision to selectively lose, the team has only four of them to reach a consensus, and did not tell others, they do not want to hurt the confidence of the players, and they can not give a reasonable explanation.
Fortunately, the team left Anthony and Xie Chen, which is a second-rate team, basically can not beat many opponents, so as long as Xie Chen and Anthony have the idea of ​​deliberately losing, how others do not affect the result.
In the next game, the Knicks' opponent is the Pistons ranked ninth in the East.
Zhuang Shen Drummond was very nervous before coming to New York. The whole team valued this game very seriously. Before the game, the coach repeatedly talked about the importance of the game and the terrible opponents.
"The New York Knicks are very close to our record, but their strength is far superior to us! They have returned to the top eight in the East and will never fall back. They will definitely rush to the front position before the end of the regular season. So in this scene we may face a massacre as soon as we open! You must fight with a spirit of 100,000 points, Xie and Anthony will not let us go, do not want to be humiliated and do it on the field!"
At the crucial moment of competing for the playoff rankings, the eighth and ninth teams in such an awkward position meet, it must be a fight for life and death, and everyone recognizes that the Knicks are stronger, so everyone generally thinks that this game will be a game massacre.
Drummond Zhuang was very serious as soon as he opened the game. He didn’t expect this game to win. Xie Chen took it seriously. He couldn’t even beat the Golden State Warriors with the best record in the league. Don't lose too badly.
But after playing for a few minutes, Xie Chen didn’t shoot, but instead the Pistons took the lead. This made Zhuang Shen a little restless and went over and said to Xie Chen: "Don’t pretend, I know you want to kill us in this game. , If you want to fight, you will shoot quickly. If you haven’t acted like this, I feel even more uncomfortable!"
Xie Chen smiled and said: "It will be uncomfortable for a while~EbookFREE.me~ Xie Chen originally wanted to lose the game. Of course, it won't matter if he won, but he didn't try his best to win. Lamond believes that Xie Chen will win at any cost.
At the end of the first quarter, the Pistons led by seven points, and the coach started talking again.
"In the first quarter, we were led by seven points. In the second quarter, Xie will definitely start a crazy attack. You must fight and hold on!"
Everyone was highly nervous by the coach's words. Reggie Jackson was going to be nervous. However, in the second quarter, Xie Chen and Anthony still didn't have any crazy score-taking moves, and the score was opened to more than 10 points!
The coach once again told the main players: "Xie is about to start scoring crazy! He is about to attack! You must keep it!"
Reggie Jackson reached out to the coach while clutching the following: "Coach, stop talking, I'm too scared to stand by you!"
Unexpectedly, Xie Chen deliberately lost the ball, but also can bring alternative torture to the opponent. (To be continued.)
