Chapter 505 The best of the first week of the season
Zhou Jing also knew that these gifts were nothing to Xie Kai, but she was very happy and felt very happy! Because they were given by Xie Kai, because they were a sign of Xie Kai's love for her!
——With love, all materialized things have symbolic meaning.
"Xie Xiaokai, will we always be so happy?" Zhou Jing drank red wine, and there was already a blush on her cheeks.
Xie Kai raised his eyebrows, supported his chin with his hand, and asked, "Do you like your current life?"
Zhou Jing nodded slightly.
Xie Kai smiled slightly: "That's good, let's enjoy this life to the fullest! Please believe that we will always be happy! Forever!"
"Yes!" Zhou Jing nodded solemnly, her big eyes sparkling. She actually didn't need to thank Xie for a promise or draw a grand blueprint for her. She just needed a look, a firm look, which was enough.
Fortunately, Xie Kai gave her such a look. She felt that she was the happiest girl in the world at this moment.
On November 10th, the Grizzlies will play at home against the Houston Rockets.
On the morning of that day, the NBA officially announced the best players in the East and West last week. LeBron James from the East and Xie Kai from the West won this award respectively.
Xie Kai led the Grizzlies to two consecutive victories in the past week. He performed well personally and performed well on both offense and defense.
This is the fifth time in Xie Kai's career that he has won Player of the Week, and it is also the fastest time he has won this title in the regular season.
The Rockets made a lot of moves in the past offseason! They used two poisonous contracts to pry Jeremy Lin and Asik from the New York Knicks and Chicago Bulls respectively, and then seized the opportunity to send away Xie Kai's former teammate
Kevin Martin and others received James Harden, one of the Thunder's three young players.
Now, under the leadership of "Refrigerator" Kevin McHale, this team happily plays "X**D" tactics, and the reconstruction has become more impressive.
Last season, the Rockets ranked ninth in the Western Conference with a record of 34 wins and 32 losses, and unfortunately failed to enter the playoffs. This season is Fridge's second season coaching the team, and he naturally hopes to lead the team.
Break into the playoffs.
Similar to the Jazz, the Rockets have not performed well in the past few seasons since Yao Ming and Tracy McGrady have been on and off due to injuries, so they have not obtained what they think is the cornerstone of the team.
Fortunately, they have produced quite a few players here over the years, so after the Thunder were unwilling to renew Harden's contract due to contract issues, they had enough leverage to get him.
Today, Harden has transformed from the Thunder's sixth man into the core of this team.
No, Harden scored 37 points in his first game with the Rockets. With unlimited shooting rights and the blessing of X**D tactics, he played very happily. He also won the first place of the season
Zhou's best player in the Western Conference can be said to be in the limelight.
Xie Kai lamented that his good friend Jeremy Lin was really unlucky. He originally thought that he would find a team with him as the core, but he did not expect that Harden, who is also a ball-handling type, would come. He knew that Harden was actually a
He can play without the ball, and his catching and shooting ability is quite strong.
However, this player is well-known for being a thief. He likes to hold the ball. He started playing on the floor at a young age. He is also one of the best "porcelain masters" in the league. On the defensive end, he will naturally not be able to do anything.
At full strength, he will keep his energy on the offensive end, which is best for his data.
After all, it is not suitable for a chicken-thief type player to be a team leader, because when it comes to the playoffs and the bayonet fight, who will play tricks with you?
Xie Kai actually hates the Rockets. If the owner of this team hadn't been so stingy and Morey had no bottom line, Yao Ming wouldn't have retired so early.
Alexander is making money from the Chinese, but he doesn't know how to spend money to introduce excellent players, wasting Yao Mai's peak period. It's really abominable. He is a little depressed why Chinese fans still treat this team with no bottom line.
Is it the home team just because Yao Ming has been there?
In this game, the Grizzlies displayed their league's top defense. They ultimately limited their opponent's scoring to 85 points, and ultimately easily defeated their opponent with a double-digit advantage.
Xie Kai scored 32 points, 4 rebounds, 3 assists, 1 steal and 1 block in this game. He was the highest scoring player in the game.
Harden was completely at a disadvantage in the direct dialogue with Xie Kai. He only made 4 of 18 shots in this game and scored 18 points. His touch was really good. Even Xie Kai almost suffered 6 fouls from him.
Off the field, he is truly the strongest "one-point champion" in the league.
The Grizzlies ushered in 4 consecutive victories and immediately ranked among the top 5 in the Western Conference.
Xie Kai and Zhou Jing's birthdays are consecutive, which is their fate.
November 11th is Xie Kai’s birthday. On the night of the 11th, he invited his teammates to dine at a very famous local Western restaurant in Memphis.
Xie Kai wanted to increase the cohesion and unity of the players through this kind of dinner. His basketball coach at the University of Kansas, Bill Self, once told him that if you want to succeed in the NBA, the unity of the team is very important.
.
Regarding this, he deeply realized this in the playoffs last season.
Xie's birthday party was very lively, and almost all his teammates came. He is considered a celebrity in Memphis. This city is not big, and it is completely incomparable to Los Angeles or New York, so there are not many celebrities.
The team's rookie coach Dave Joerger was also invited to the party. This rookie coach had a good relationship with the players when he was an assistant coach. The players still respect him very much because of the defense he built.
The system is the foundation for this Grizzlies team to become a strong team in the league.
Black Bear Randolph was a little drunk after drinking a few glasses of whiskey, and his face was red. He pulled away and said with a smile: "Brother, after that guy Rudy left, you see how united our team is!"
Xie Kai smiled and didn't say anything, but it was indeed the truth. Guy was indeed not very gregarious and well-behaved, and he was at loggerheads with the team's internal and external core, so could he get any good results?
In the NBA, strength is important, but you also need to be a good person! Unless you are as strong as Kobe James, it is really hard for ordinary players to do too much, otherwise the gain will not be worth the loss.
After Xie Kai's party, he and Zhou Jing went back to celebrate his birthday again in the small apartment he rented. Zhou Jing personally made him a birthday cake, which moved him very much.
Chapter completed!
