Chen Xi is looking at the reporter strangely.
Is this the end?
Suddenly, a chill ran down from my head.
"Damn!!!! Russell!!!!"
Westbrook Turtle Turtle was sneaking behind him and quickly poured down two glasses of ice water, giving Chen Xi a shock on the spot.
"I have to say, I don't like this tradition, especially when it's used on me."
Chen Xi shouted and turned his head, glanced at Westbrook who was running away quickly, then turned back helplessly and complained to the camera.
"I'm really afraid of the cold!!!"
After being forced to stage a wave of wet temptation, Chen Xi ended the interview with a few words and walked back to the players' tunnel.
Thunder's next opponent is Mavericks.
Chen Xi took the opportunity, asked for leave and canceled the next day's training, and flew back to Dallas first, waiting for the game night to rendezvous with the team.
He is not Dayu, Basketball is a job, not a noble cause.
It is impossible to pass through the door three times without entering.
On the evening of November 10th, American Airlines Center Arena.
Thunder challenges Mavericks away from home.
Although this year's Mavericks has not improved much in terms of record, it still only achieved a poor record of 3 wins and 8 losses in the previous 11 games.
But it's obvious that the team's atmosphere has changed.
The arrival of Luka·Doncic has injected new vitality into this team.
A super mature and excellent rookie performance. Although he did not perform well in the first game of his career, Regular season, he adjusted right away.
On October 21st, against Timberwolves, he made 8 of 16 shots, scored 26 points, 6 rebounds, 3 assists, 2 steals and 1 block, and led the team to their first win of the season.
On October 30, in the game against Spurs, he made 11 of 18 shots and scored 31 points, 8 rebounds and 4 assists.
Very scary progress speed.
As long as he keeps this up, it will be difficult for anyone to beat Rookie of the Year this season.
Whether it is Ayton, the No. 1 pick, or another potential newcomer in the Doncic trade, Little Curry Trae Young.
His performance at the beginning of his career was far inferior to Doncic.
Of course, it won't be as good in the future~~
Luka's adaption speed to the NBA is amazing.
This also made Presti think of Chen Xi's original evaluation for the first time.
Of course, this doesn't mean anything. Now GM Presti still thinks that Chen Xi is just lucky.
After the brief opening ceremony, players from both sides came to the court.
In this game, Thunder is still led by Chen Xi alone.
It stands to reason that Davis's recovery time from injury has come.
However, for the sake of safety, Donovan still did not put him on the active list for this game.
Anyway, the team's current record has been stabilized by Chen Xi, so there is no rush to let him come back.
Thunder Regular season this season does not have much pressure on performance.
They are the defending champions and their goal is at Playoffs.
Regular season can collect the force appropriately, and he hasn't lost much so far.
As for Mavericks, Nowitzki was also placed on the injured list.
The main reason why old Driver signed another one-year contract this year may be to take Doncic with him and go one more mile in League.
Use his experience to teach this fellow European how to survive in League.
Now Dirk plays more of a role as the leader of the locker room.
The game starts with a jump ball from both sides.
McGee beat Little Jordan. (Little Jordan joined Mavericks with 22.9 million yuan in summer 1 year)
Thunder ball rights.
Alexander catches the ball and advances slowly.
They are also among the top rookies in the 18th class, but sga's progress is much slower than Doncic.
His technical completion and game experience still need time to accumulate.
But Doncic is different. His experience in EuroLeague has greatly assisted his rapid growth.
It's hard to say who will have higher achievements in the future, but for now, Doncic can easily suppress Sga.
In the first kick of the game, Alexander did not give the ball to Chen Xi immediately. Instead, he chose to find Pick-and-Roll who was Collins, and then broke through down the line.
With fast steps, he arrived at Mid-range's position. Taking advantage of Willis Matthews's defensive position, he directly shot Mid-range's jump shot.
Dang!!
It's a pity that Basketball popped out of the frame and was picked up by Little Jordan.
The opportunity came out, but I didn't take it.
Mavericks attack.
Little Smith took the serve and brought it to Frontcourt.
Little Smith, who was supposed to be a potential newcomer, clearly felt a sense of crisis.
He could feel that the entire team's resources were gradually transferred to Doncic.
He, last year's No. 9 overall pick, has fallen out of favor.
Although it is a bit harsh to give him only one year to develop, but there is no other way, this is life.
Doncic No matter what his performance is, he has much more potential than this little guard who has only scratched half of his awards.
Although he was dissatisfied, he was unable to resist the arrangement of the coaching staff. After dribbling the ball to Frontcourt, he obediently passed the ball to Doncic and ran towards the wing.
Luka Top of the Key held the ball and looked at Chen Xi who was specially placed in front of him, with a slightly excited look on his face.
After all, he is a young man, and he is a young man who has made great achievements in EuroLeague, so he naturally has his own arrogance.
He is very willing to challenge this third-year senior.
The purpose of Chen Xi is also very simple. He just wants to beat the children.
Teacher Jokic is now in a strong position, and he is also a center forward, so he is not so easy to bully.
But Doncic is still a newcomer. No matter how mature and complete he is, he cannot change. Doncic is indeed just a 19-year-old boy~~
Before he can fully adapt to the NBA game, why not seize the opportunity to beat him up and satisfy your own evil taste?
Facing the defense of Chen Xi, Doncic was very motivated and did not look for cover. Instead, he chose a one-on-one challenge, Face-Up Isolation.
After a slow and special rhythm Dribble, Doncic wanted to break through from the right, took two steps and then stopped Drop Step, then Between-the-Legs Crossover, and broke through from the left again.
But Chen Xi's defensive steps were very steady, sticking tightly to Doncic's side.
Seeing that Chen Xi failed to get rid of the defense, Doncic quickly took a step forward, and after making Physical Confrontation with Chen Xi, he used the force to retreat, followed by Step-back, and then Three-Point Shot.
Snap!!!
Chen Xi, who had expected it, took off and hit Youdong hard.
"You're kidding! I've studied the video of you masturbating Gobert at least twenty times!!"
After Chen Xi dropped Shot, it immediately accelerated when it landed, rushed forward quickly, picked up Basketball that bounced off the ground not far away, and ran towards the opposite side.
