Chapter 222 The end of the season

On February 27, in the last regular season of the month, the Kings continued to play at home.

Facing a strong team with 37 wins and 20 losses, the consensus before the game is that the Kings don’t need to use any "skills" and can easily complete the task of losing without competing with acting skills.

But who knows that the game is not like this.

The Kings fans who are watching this game are blessed because Xie Kai, one of their team's potential stocks, exploded.

In this game, Xie Kai played 38 minutes and 59 seconds, scored 17 points in a single quarter, scored 24 points in the half, scored 40 points, 5 rebounds, 3 assists and 1 steal, helping the Kings defeat their powerful opponents at home!

Xie Kai broke his NBA career regular season records in this game: 17 points in a single quarter (the highest was 14 points before), 24 points in the half (the highest was 20 points before), and 38 minutes and 59 seconds of playing (the highest was 38 minutes and 01 seconds before).

Moreover, this is Xie Kai's third 40+ career in his NBA career. He used this game to refresh his multiple career records and swear to those who question him that he is not a player with no potential to become a superstar. Who said that only in bad teams can you get good data, break personal records in front of strong teams and lead the team to win? Such data should be more convincing!

After this game, there are all kinds of opinions and opinions about the Kings team. Some media think that this team is too strange. They can actually win against bad teams and playoff teams. It's so strange that such teams are not easy to predict the results, so that people who want to bet on the ball can only choose another team in order to be safer.

On March 1, the Kings faced their "competitor" Los Angeles Clippers at home.

In this competition of acting, the Kings finally lost the game, and unexpectedly won at home, ushering in two consecutive victories.

Although the team won the game, the live camera captured a ridiculous shot. At the end of the game, Kings general manager Jove Petri, who came to watch the game on the spot, was not happy, but was a little disappointed.

After the game, the matter behind this photo about bad play became one of the hot topics of media reporters and fans. Kings general manager Jove Petri became an internet celebrity instantly, and the topic of bad play for bad play in the NBA became popular again.

The Kings did not expect the situation to develop like this. The team officially issued a clarification statement, reiterating that the expression of General Manager Jove Petri was taken out of context by the troublemakers, so that the media should not spread false news randomly.

This matter gradually subsided. There were more than the Kings teams that were playing badly. Everyone was just bored and they made fun of it. After all, playing badly is a fait accompli, and there is nothing to be surprised about. This happens every year, and it’s no wonder.

On March 3, the Kings lost to the Thunder, which is currently 35 wins and 23 losses, and missed the three consecutive wins.

The next day, the Kings challenged the Rockets back-to-back away. In this game, Rockets' former player Carl Landry exploded. He scored 22 points, 10 rebounds and 2 blocks, helping the team narrowly defeat his old club away.

However, beating the Rockets did not put the Kings on a winning streak. Their goal was too clear. Sometimes winning a game was purely an accident, which was the product of the combination of the player's accidental outbreak and the head coach's failure to control the field.

From the 6th to the 10th of this month, the Kings lost to the Mavericks, the Thunder and the Trail Blazers in a row, ushering in a three-game losing streak. On the 11th, they won the Raptors at home, which was considered to be a response to the league's counterattack slogan.

Two days later, the Kings lost to the Trail Blazers again "naturally" and continued to pursue more losses.

In the match against the Timberwolves on March 15, the Kings really couldn't play the other side and had to win the game. Unfortunately, they missed the "good result" of losing streak.

The Timberwolves are not only really bad, but also a perfect interpretation between the field control master and Oscar players. It has elevated the bad performance to art, which makes people admire them.

In the next two games, the Kings felt comfortable losing to the Lakers and Bucks, two quasi-playoff teams, and comfortably suffered two consecutive losses.

But in the next game, the Kings faced their direct competitor Clippers... In a game where they didn't care about the process and only cared about the results, the two teams "do all their money", but the visiting team eventually won the game due to a little "accident" and missed the three consecutive losses.

Fortunately, in the remaining five games this month, the Kings were lucky to lose all the games and ushered in a five-game losing streak. In these five-game losing streak, their victory was a classic battle of this season with the Nets, the last-tour in the league.

Fortunately, such a classic battle is not the last one. On April 1, the Kings defeated the Timberwolves of the "Oscar Concentration Camp" away game, completing an almost impossible task.

Kings coach Paul Westfar has simply put his ability beyond his coaching ability to the extreme. At the critical moment of the game, he arranged several incredible tactics, causing the team three mistakes in a row, and then let the opponent go to the free throw line to score, forcing the opponent to defeat him.

Under the influence of such a tough move, even the actor is helpless.

After the game, the Kings suffered a 6-game losing streak. After that, facing the two strong teams, the Trail Blazers and the Spurs, they made their losing streak in 8 games without any suspense.

On April 9, the Kings face the Clippers at home. This will be another peak battle to test their acting skills.

In this game, the Kings finally couldn't achieve another good result. They defeated their opponents at home and missed the cute 9-game losing streak...

The home team fans who went to watch the game on site did not know whether to be happy or sad when facing this defeat.

After the game, a basketball reporter posted a sentence on his social media: "If the draft rules do not change in the future, such ugly games will continue to appear!"

In the last three games of the regular season, the Kings smoothly ended their regular season journey this season with a three-game losing streak. Their opponents in these three games are the Mavericks, Rockets and Lakers.

Xie Kai finished his last game of the season at Staples Center, and for him personally, it was the best place besides the home sleeping train stadium.

Another bad season is over. Unlike last season, the Kings have not become the last in the league this season, nor are they even the last in the West.
