"We are fully prepared for targeted defense against Kai Chen!"
Before the game, Phoenix Suns Head Coach Monty Williams, in an interview with the media, directly stated, "Kai's performance has been phenomenal, and we dare not be negligent in the slightest!"
Just as Coach Monty said!
Kai is currently a key subject of study for every NBA team's coaching staff.
Every one of his games is repeatedly analyzed by the coaching staff of various teams.
For example, in the game against the Houston Rockets, Kai's explosive scoring ability was a major focus, and many teams began to try and limit his individual isolations.
Another example is in the showdown against the Oklahoma City Thunder, after the Clippers adopted a small-ball lineup, Kai's ability to organize and pass on the court was greatly unleashed.
Coaches from all other NBA teams realized that Kai's impact on the offensive end is absolutely top-tier in the league.
"Kai is a complete and utter idiot!"
Shortly after, Devin Booker, the Phoenix Suns' star player, who was also being interviewed by the media before the game, began a fierce tirade against Kai, facing the camera: "The league should ban this scumbag from participating in NBA games!"
"Look at what that guy has done off the court! His behavior is absolutely atrocious!"
"I don't want his presence alone to affect the entire league's atmosphere!"
The TNT reporter interviewing Booker was also dumbfounded by his words.
Dude, what on earth are you talking about!?
Kai just broke up off the court, and that makes him a scumbag? Affecting the league's atmosphere?
Then do you want to see what your good partner Ayton has been up to?
Of course, Booker, who said this, also had his own selfish motives.
After Kendall officially announced her breakup with Kai, Booker couldn't wait to get in touch with her.
And, just last night, he successfully had dinner with Kendall.
Although there was no substantial progress, Kendall had already promised him: as long as he crushes Kai, she will become his girlfriend.
After receiving a positive response from his goddess, Booker felt as if he had been injected with adrenaline.
This is why he had such an impassioned outburst against Kai before the game.
To this, Kai only wanted to say: Stories of simps never end well!
Both sides' warm-ups quickly ended, and the starting players for both teams entered the court!
For the Phoenix Suns: Rubio + Booker + Oubre + Johnson + Bender!
For the Clippers, it remained the same: Beverley + Carmelo + Jeff Green + Lopez, and Kai!
"You dumped Kendall!?"
"You dumbass, if you don't cherish her, then let me cherish her for you!"
"Are you f*cking mute!?"
From the jump ball, Devin Booker began to provoke Kai.
He constantly made physical contact with him, muttering under his breath.
But Kai didn't reply to him, his gaze fixed on Kendall, who was sitting in the first row courtside.
Meeting Kai's gaze, Kendall revealed a very satisfied smile.
It seemed she was very pleased with Booker's actions!
"The Phoenix Suns are here today specifically for revenge against the Los Angeles Clippers!"
"They are full of fighting spirit, and their star player, Devin Booker, is playing better and better!"
"That's right, let's see their choice on this possession."
The two commentators courtside were just about to praise the surging Phoenix Suns, but they were quickly proven wrong.
Rubio wanted to pass the ball to Booker, but the basketball was suddenly intercepted midway by Kai.
After completing the steal, Kai quickly passed the ball to Beverley, while he himself sprinted to the frontcourt.
Beverley also understood, accelerating with the ball to push the fast break, constantly observing Kai's position, and then passing the ball to Kai, who was positioned beyond the three-point line.
As soon as the ball touched his hands, Kai didn't hesitate, pulling up from beyond the three-point line!
"Swish!"
The basketball, like a dagger, sealed the deal!
"The Clippers' fast break is truly swift!"
"If Kai's method of fast break were used by anyone else, the coaching staff would probably be furious."
"But this is Kai Chen!!"
"Watch the pass, don't be too careless!"
Phoenix Suns Head Coach Monty shouted loudly to his players from the sideline.
For a team like the Los Angeles Clippers, with such high fast-break efficiency, turnovers are equivalent to giving away points!
"Clang!"
Although the Phoenix Suns did not commit a turnover on their next offensive possession, Booker's mid-range jump shot challenging Kai missed.
The rebound was collected by Lopez, who then passed the ball to Jeff Green.
Jeff Green dribbled once, then quickly transferred the ball to Beverley.
Beverley didn't stop the ball, twisted his foot, and made a half-court quarterback pass, finding Kai Chen in the frontcourt!
Kai received the ball, used a triple threat to fake out the recovering Booker, and still from the three-point line, pulled up for a fast-break three-pointer!
"Bang!!"
The basketball pierced the net with a perfectly executed arc!
6:0!!
The Los Angeles Clippers, in just 24 seconds from the start, launched two consecutive fast breaks.
And all of them were completed by Kai's three-point finishes, taking the lead in the score.
Monty could no longer sit still, standing up and shouting at his players on the court again:
"Don't blindly go for isolations, play more team basketball!"
"Get back on defense faster, don't get hit with fast breaks!"
Getting hit with two three-point fast breaks by the Clippers right at the start.
Who can withstand this!???
Turning back, the entire Phoenix Suns also became much more cautious.
On their offensive possession, they passed the ball multiple times, trying to find the best offensive opportunity.
However, the Clippers' defense did not give them a chance, and eventually, they committed a 24-second shot clock violation.
"What's wrong with the Suns!?"
"They seem to have been stunned by Kai's two opening three-pointers!"
"This is the terrifying aspect of Kai Chen; his unreasonable scoring methods can put a lot of psychological pressure on opponents!"
Just as the two commentators said.
Kai's two consecutive three-pointers, coupled with Head Coach Monty's roar.
Made the Phoenix Suns players feel double the psychological pressure.
The 24-second violation on this offensive possession was a result of them not wanting to rush their offense, which would lead to the Clippers getting a fast break.
"Shit!"
"Watch your back!"
Just as the Phoenix Suns players were feeling frustrated, Monty suddenly roared from the sideline!
By the time the players on the court reacted, the Los Angeles Clippers had already quickly inbounded the ball.
Beverley accelerated with the ball, with Carmelo and Kai Chen flying down both wings!
After seeing Kai make the gesture of pointing one hand to the sky, Beverley understood, flicking his wrist gently, and the basketball arced beautifully towards the hoop.
Under the basket, Kai exploded upwards with both feet, catching the ball with his left hand in mid-air before Bender could get into defensive position, then switching the ball from his left hand to his right, and finishing with a right-handed alley-oop one-handed dunk!
"Boom!!"
