Chapter 66 Outbreak but to no avail

At this time, the Kings trailed the 76ers by 11 points at 12:23.

Lou Williams dribbled the ball across half court and started a pick-and-roll with his teammates inside at the top of the arc.

Xie Kai often swings to the 3rd position in the substitute lineup, because once Bobby Brown comes on the field, he can't be allowed to guard the opponent's small forward with less than 190, right?

Karim Rush is the one who needs to be marked in this game.

This Rush is not Pilash. The Rush that Xie Kai knew is currently in the Indiana Pacers, and this Rush is the left-hander of the Lakers back then.

Reed's dribbling speed is very fast. After a single block, he used the change of direction and rhythm to make a jump shot with the help of the aging Bobby Jackson!

The 76ers led the Kings by 14 points, 25:11.

For the Kings, Xie Kai moved without the ball and suddenly set a pick-and-roll for Bobby Jackson and then quickly followed up.

Bobby Jackson quickly passed the ball.

After receiving the ball, Xie Kai used the screen of Sheldon Williams to change direction, drive straight to the basket, and go straight to Marliese Speights.

Speights is the 16th pick in this year's first round and graduated from the University of Florida. He is tall and thick, but he is a technical man with a soft touch. His frame protection is actually his weakness, so in the face of this situation, he

If you can't restrict the opponent, you can only foul!

Xie Kai was pulled down so hard that he almost fell off the bottom line.

Bobby Jackson pushed Speights, but was quickly stopped by the baseline referee and the referee.

"Marlis' foul on this ball was a bit too harsh, probably because the opponent is a rookie!" Mark Jackson said with a smile.

"By doing this, he can avoid being beaten to 21 by the opponent, but he has to risk some flagrant fouls! However, Masley is also a rookie himself, he is just a little older!" Craig Sager

Er said with a smile.

The referee may have felt that Speights' foul was indeed a bit serious, so he did not give Bobby Jackson a technical foul.

Xie Kai stood up and calmly walked to the free throw line without even looking at Speights.

Speights stood under the left basket, smiling evilly and muttering: "I won't be so lucky next time, I'm going to tear you apart!"

Xie Kai made two free throws steadily, and then quickly ran to the baseline to prevent the opponent from serving.

Speights was serving the ball at this time. When he saw Xie Kai coming to interfere, he said fiercely: "Boy, are you looking for death?"

"Are you 'dead'?" Xie Kai counterattacked!

"You..." Speights passed the ball angrily, but he didn't expect that he made a mistake when passing the ball. His hand slipped and the ball did not move toward the established route.

Xie Kai stretched out his hand and cut it off. Without waiting for Speights to defend from the baseline, he turned around and hit a one-handed layup!

Such a dramatic scene occurred on the field, which made the fans at the scene feel baffled.

76ers coach Maurice Cheeks was dissatisfied with the team's performance and immediately requested a timeout!

"What on earth did Kane say to Malis just now? Why can't Malis pass the ball anymore?" Craig Sagel smiled from ear to ear.

"Maris never stopped talking when Kane took the free throw. I guess Kane may have been 'greeting' Maris in Chinese when the opponent was serving the baseline kick!" Mark Jackson replied with a smile.

"How can Maris understand Chinese! Hahaha..." Craig Sagel laughed.

Xie Kai quickly scored 4 points during his time on the court, helping the team chase the point difference to 15:25, which made the Kings players excited.

"Kane, good job!" Bobby Jackson was very happy that Xie Kai taught this arrogant guy Speights a lesson in his own way. Although he didn't know what happened near the baseline just now, he was so angry that he threw it away from Speights.

From the movement of the towel, he could guess that the other party must have suffered a loss.

Return from the timeout and the game continues.

The 76ers attacked, and Reed passed the ball to Willie Green on the outside, who broke through to Rush in the corner.

Facing Xie Kai's defense, Rush had no chance to shoot, so he held the ball and cut along the baseline toward the basket.

Rush's ability to hold the ball was very average, and the ball was obviously exposed. Xie Kai reached out and took out a handful, and the ball hit the opponent and bounced out of the baseline.

Kings ball!

"Kane, a rookie, has a strong presence on both offense and defense! He has made contributions in these rounds, and his performance is really good!" Craig Sagel said with a smile.

"Well, it seems that Reggie needs to give him more playing time, haha!" Mark Jackson said.

In the rest of the first quarter, neither team scored again, so the score difference between the two sides was still 10 points.

As soon as the game started in the second quarter, Xie Kai received a pass from Jason Thompson inside and hit a 3-pointer, narrowing the point difference to only 7 points.

However, on the defensive end, Lu Wei responded with a pull-up jumper.

The Kings attacked, Xie Kai received a pass from Bobby Jackson, cut to the basket, and caused Speights' foul again!

Speights committed three fouls and was replaced by coach Cheeks.

When Speights came off the field, he cursed Xie Kai and was scolded by head coach Cheeks in person.

Xie Kai made one of two free throws and the point difference was narrowed to 8 points.

After that, the two teams fell into a confrontation. When Xie Kai and others were replaced, the score difference between the two sides was 7 points!

"Sacramento's bench can compete with Philadelphia's bench at this level, which is really extraordinary!" Craig Sagel said with a smile.

"Yeah, the strength on paper is not at the same level. I didn't expect Kane to break out!" Mark Jackson said.

As soon as the starting lineups of both sides returned, the balance of the game was instantly broken. The 76ers did not pose much of a threat from outside shooting, but they were able to break out from the outside and attack hard inside. Coupled with their defensive line, they quickly overwhelmed the Kings' starting lineup.

The score difference went from 7 points to 20 points at halftime in less than 8 minutes.

During the halftime break, although Kings coach Reggie Tois kept emphasizing the need to be tough and work hard on defense, at the beginning of the third quarter, he was beaten 6:0 by his opponent.

Hit him in the face.

The game was just halfway through the third quarter, and the score difference between the two sides was already more than 30 points. The situation in this game seemed familiar to the Kings, and the game against the Heat 3 days ago seemed to be similar.

Xie Kai came on the field with 5 minutes left in the third quarter and played until the end of the game. He played very well in this game, but he still could not help the team win the game.

In the end, the Kings lost again on the road and ushered in a 4-game losing streak!

Xie Kai played 25 minutes in this game and made 8 of 12 shots, including 2 of 4 3-pointers and 5 of 6 free throws. He scored 23 points, 5 rebounds, 2 assists, 2 steals and 1 block, and did not make a single mistake.
