Chapter 205 The All-Star Weekend Comes to an End
On the field, players from the Western Conference All-Stars came forward to give Li Xuan a high-five to celebrate.
"Lee, that dunk just now was too explosive, it stunned the great Shaq."
"Great job little guy, this dunk is a morale booster."
"Boy, I have to admit that your dunk has conquered this wolf king."
"Li, next time there is such a performance, remember to remind me, or you will frighten my heart, and you will be responsible."
On the other side, Eastern All-Star players are also discussing.
"Vince, you have met your opponent, that little guy is not easy!" After Kidd finished speaking, he ran towards the baseline to catch the ball.
Carter looked at Li Xuan surrounded by Kobe and others, and smiled.
"It's interesting like this. I suddenly feel a little itchy in my hands. I have to stop the itching, otherwise I will think that I am old and can't jump anymore."
Immediately, Carter ran to the frontcourt to participate in the offense, preparing to dunk one back.
The game continues, the Eastern Conference All-Star ball right.
Kidd advances with the ball, comes outside the three-point line to organize the offense, and observes the position of his teammates.
Carter, who was in the high position on the right, suddenly started and cut towards the basket.
Li Xuan immediately turned around to chase and defend, but he didn't use his full strength. After all, this was the All-Star Game.
Garnett and O'Neal near the penalty zone did not go to help defend, allowing Carter to rush into the penalty zone. They also wanted to see what tricks the "Canadian trapeze" could pull off.
Kidd, who was in possession of the ball at the top of the arc, had sharp eyes and quick hands, and threw the ball towards the basket.
The fans in the auditorium held their breath and stared at the field intently, afraid of missing the wonderful moment.
Carter, who rushed into the penalty area, took off vigorously. After spinning 360° in the air, he wanted to catch the basketball in the air, but he lost it.
The basketball flew straight over Carter's head and headed for the baseline.
"Hahaha, it's too difficult. Carter has played it off, like an All-Star." Director Zhang commented with a smile.
On the court, after Carter landed, he patted his chest in embarrassment, pointed at Kidd, and indicated that it was a good shot, but he failed to grasp it.
The ball is switched, and the Western All-Stars attack.
Nash dribbled the ball across half court and immediately handed it to Garnett, who was standing in the middle distance on the right.
After KG received the ball, facing Artest's defense, he made a big jumper directly.
With a bang, strike with anger!
Under the basket, Big Ben resisted O'Neal and grabbed a backcourt rebound.
He felt a huge force coming from behind, knowing that this fat man was playing for real, he couldn't help complaining in his heart.
"Fuck! It's just an entertainment competition, why are you so desperate?"
O'Neal didn't care what Big Ben thought, he just wanted to grab offensive rebounds and score, make his statistics look good, and be crowned the All-Star MVP at home.
Big Ben didn't admit it, and confronted O'Neal physically, preventing him from taking off and creating conditions for his teammates to grab rebounds.
"I can't get it, and you can't get it either."
But Daben couldn't wait for his teammates to arrive, but saw that annoying figure.
As the saying goes, when the snipe and the clam compete, the fisherman benefits.
Li Xuan rushed into the penalty area, grabbed the offensive rebound, and scored it immediately after landing.
Kobe, who came back, received the pass and was unguarded, making a mid-range jumper.
"Boy, good pass!"
"The boss still feels good, allowing me to easily get an assist."
When they retreated, Kobe and Li Xuan clapped their hands in celebration and praised each other.
Seeing that the Western All-Stars were about to widen the point difference to more than 10 points, the Eastern All-Stars cheered up and played in the first quarter, so where is their face?
This time, the Eastern All-Star team played as a team.
Kidd beckoned and called his teammates to play pick-and-roll cooperation.
McGrady, who was standing three points away from the right, immediately ran up to cover.
After the pick-and-roll was ready, Kidd used the screen to get rid of Nash, broke through the three-point line, encountered Kobe's defense, and immediately threw the ball behind his head.
McGrady received the pass and was not polite. Facing Nash's defense, he directly pulled up a jumper.
Seeing this, Nash shook his head, straightened his arms, and defended symbolically.
"Fuck! The All-Star game will be against me."
Swish!Hollow into the net!
Looking back, Nash and Garnett completed the pick-and-roll cooperation, broke into the penalty area to attract the defense, and passed the ball back to Garnett who cut inside.
KG received the pass back, dribbled to the penalty area, soared into the air, and dunked the ball into the basket with one hand.
After completing the dunk, Garnett beat his chest, raised his head and roared, showing off his signature celebration.
Li Xuan who was not far away was stunned and almost clapped his hands.
On the other side, the Eastern All-Star team quickly served the baseline ball, and Kidd dribbled the ball quickly and wanted to engage in a sneak attack.
Seeing this, Li Xuan quickly returned to defense and rushed to the basket immediately.
Kidd dribbles forward quickly and passes the ball just past half court.
Carter, who ran beyond the three-point line, received the pass and accelerated towards the basket.
When he came within a step or so of the free throw line, he took off with one foot, stretched his body in the air, quickly completed the crotch change, and dunked the ball into the basket with one hand.
Li Xuan on the side didn't step forward to intercept, watched the dunk from a close distance, and secretly clapped his hands in applause.
"As expected of a half-human, half-god, this jumping ability is really amazing."
There was thunderous applause in the auditorium, and cheers and shouts resounded through the arena.
"The UFO came to Staples, and the Canadian trapeze came back!" Barkley shouted excitedly.
When retreating, Carter said something to Li Xuan.
"Boy, this is a slam dunk!"
Li Xuan nodded and ran towards the frontcourt to participate in the attack.
Carter was stunned for a moment, he thought Li Xuan would respond unconvinced, but he didn't expect such a result.
"What a fun kid."
In the next round, Kobe hit the iron with a fadeaway jumper, Artest grabbed the rebound, passed it to McGrady to dribble forward, and launched a defensive counterattack.
McGrady dribbled the ball to a step or so away from the three-point line, pulled it up directly, hit a chasing three-pointer, narrowed the point difference again, and stopped the decline.
After that, both sides scored and scored, and the point difference was not widened.
In this way, the first quarter ended, the score on the barrage was 38 to 34, and the Western All-Stars led by 4 points.
The intermission is over and the second quarter begins.
The starting players such as Li Xuan did not play, and Nowitzki and other substitute players who had not played much were sent.
On the other side, the Eastern All-Star team also used the same substitution strategy.
After the substitute players came on the court, they played extremely chaotically, basically there was no tactics at all, and whoever got the ball would play.
Because the defense was loose and the shooting percentage was extremely high, the score rose gradually.
When the second quarter lasted about 8 minutes, Li Xuan and others went into battle again.
As soon as he came up, Dayao scrambled for an offensive rebound in the interior, rose up, and dunked the ball into the basket with both hands.
This dunk won the applause of the whole house.
In fact, players with the style of Dayao and Duncan are not suitable for participating in the All-Star Game.
Because the All-Star game is about viewing rather than strength, fans don't want to watch unpretentious shooting performances, they want to watch explosive dunks.
Back to the game, the East All-Stars attack.
Jermaine O'Neal singled Garnett in the low post on the right, turning over and hitting a jumper.
In normal times, the ball would not be so easy at all, and it is very likely that Garnett slapped it and flew it out.
In the next few rounds, both sides had brilliant performances.
Alley-oop dunks, passing without looking at people, dazzling breakthroughs, and folding levers in the air have everything that one expects to see, which makes the fans enjoy watching.
At the end of the first half of the game, Li Xuan grabbed the rebound, did not choose to pass the ball, and dribbled forward by himself.
Carter saw Li Xuan staying half a meter away from the three-point line, and did not step forward to defend, waiting for Li Xuan to come to the door automatically.
Seeing Carter standing not far from him, Li Xuan suddenly became interested, pointed to the floor and said to Carter: "Vince, this is my lucky spot, I will throw this ball in front of you."
Carter: "."
After Li Xuan finished speaking, he immediately pulled up and shot.
Carter reached out to interfere symbolically, he didn't believe that Li Xuan could pretend to beep.
Swish!Hollow into the net!
"Hey! To tell you the truth, you still don't believe it. What about the trust between people?" Li Xuan turned and left after speaking.
Carter felt a little frustrated and cursed secretly.
"Fuck! It was pretended by that kid."
Afterwards, the Eastern All-Stars made a fast serve, and McGrady made a three-pointer at the buzzer.
So far, the first half of the game is over, the score is 81 to 73, and the Western All-Star team leads by 8 points.
After a short 15-minute break, the second half began.
The head coaches of both sides did not arrange tactics, and quietly acted as tools, allowing the players to decide the victory of the game by themselves.
After the start of the third quarter, the performance was still the main focus and there was no fortification.
As soon as Li Xuan came up, he made a three-pointer in the middle circle, but it was a pity that he missed the shot.
Other players also showed their housekeeping skills one after another, which caused bursts of cheers from the audience.
Seeing such a lively game on the field, the score also rose slowly, but the point difference was always kept within 10 points.
In this way, the third quarter ended, the score was very close, the score on the big screen was 114 to 106, and the Western All-Star team led by 8 points.
Therefore, the fourth quarter game became the final battle, and the paddling of the East and West All-Star teams came to an end.
After the intermission, the fourth quarter begins.
The Eastern All-Star team still sent all the starters.
The Western All-Stars sent Nash and O'Neal, plus three other starters.
As soon as it came up, the Eastern All-Star team played a simple tactical coordination.
McGrady misplaced Nash in singles and hit a jumper to narrow the point difference.
The ball is switched, and the Western All-Stars attack.
Nash and Li Xuan cooperated in the pick-and-roll. With the help of the screen, Lao Na got rid of Iverson's defense and broke into the three-point line.
Near the free throw line, Nash tricked Carter, who was switching defenses, with a fake fax and successfully broke into the penalty area.
At the basket, O'Neal blocked Da Ben who wanted to help defend.
Lao Na made an easy layup with no effort.
Seeing this situation, the Eastern All-Star players were not in a hurry. Looking back, they still attacked Nash.
There is no way, the other players of the Western Stars are too defensive to play at all!
Li Xuan and Garnett, two of the league's top defense monsters, couldn't make a move at all.
Bryant is currently one of the best perimeter defenders.
O'Neal is at the end of his peak, the overlord of the restricted area.
Therefore, only Nash, a defensive black hole, can be caught.
This time, Nash circled the screen early and did not choose to switch defenses.
After Iverson borrowed the screen, he immediately took off and shot a long-range jumper.
Iverson didn't feel good tonight. He failed to make many open shots before, and this time is the same.
With a bang, strike with anger!
O'Neal grabbed the rebound and wanted to dribble forward. Seeing that Daben stepped forward to intercept, he had to pass the ball.
After receiving the ball, Nash quickly dribbled forward. Seeing that he could not play a fast break, he slowed down and came to the top of the arc to organize an attack.
Li Xuan quickly ran forward and cooperated with the pick-and-roll.
With the help of a screen, Lao Na broke through the penalty area, encountered a change of defense, and flicked the ball behind his head.
After finishing the screen, Li Xuan quickly ran out of the three-point line, received a wonderful pass from Nash, and made a three-pointer.
In the next round, after Iverson cooperated with O'Neal in the pick-and-roll, he assisted O'Neal to hit a mid-range jumper, stopping the decline.
The ball is switched, and the Western All-Stars attack.
Nash dribbles to the top of the arc, observes the position of his teammates, and organizes the offense.
Li Xuan quickly moved without the ball, and cut towards the basket along the baseline.
Carter, who was chasing and defending, got up his spirits and followed closely behind Li Xuan.
"No matter what, this kid can't be allowed to score again."
Li Xuan ran into the inside lane, nimbly shuttled through the crowd, and suddenly accelerated towards the three-point line.
Carter, who was chasing after him, wanted to speed up to catch up, but was blocked by O'Neill's huge body and couldn't keep up with Li Xuan's footsteps.
Daben saw this, and it was too late to turn around to chase and defend, so he could only stay under the basket and get ready to grab the rebound.
Facing O'Neal, a giant under the basket, he dare not take it lightly.
As soon as Li Xuan ran to the bottom corner on the right, he received a wonderful pass from Francis and immediately took off to shoot, without giving the Eastern All-Stars a chance to defend.
"Shh!"
The basketball is hollow into the net and hits steadily!
"A good shot! Li Xuan's escape is very beautiful, it's a textbook performance." Director Zhang praised.
The game continued, the Eastern All-Stars wanted to return one, and McGrady directly made a three-pointer in the face of Kobe's defense.
Seeing that McGrady was so arrogant, the cauliflower snake directly rushed forward to interfere with the shot, without releasing any water.
With a bang, strike with anger!
Garnett grabbed the rebound and immediately threw it upfield.
Li Xuan, who was on the fast break, received the pass, went beyond the three-point line, jumped up and shot, all in one go.
Carter, who was chasing after him, rushed forward immediately, but failed to interfere with the shot.
"Fuck! The speed of the shot is too fast, it's just a few throws."
Before Carter finished complaining, he heard the pleasant sound of swishing the net.
Relying on Li Xuan's three consecutive three-pointers, the Western Conference All-Star team quickly opened up the gap.
Seeing that the score is getting bigger and bigger, the Eastern All-Stars are a little impatient.
Iverson broke through the basket and was interfered by O'Neal's help defense and failed to score.
The Western All-Stars seized the opportunity and launched a defensive counterattack.
Kobe received a ground pass from Nash, flew to the basket, and after a physical confrontation with O'Neal, they scored two plus one.
Amid the cheers of the fans, Kobe stood on the free throw line, took the basketball from the referee, and made an extra free throw.
Immediately, the old Nelson applied for substitutions and adjustments, preparing to close the game.
Nash and O'Neal were replaced by Francis and Duncan.
After the Western All-Stars strengthened their defense, it was very difficult for the Eastern All-Stars to score.
After falling into a scoring drought, the morale of the Eastern All-Star team was extremely low.
It turns out that there is such a big gap between us and the Western All-Star players!
McGrady and Iverson tried a few three-pointers from the outside, but the effect was not good, and they all ended in iron strikes.
As for the inside line, they have no advantage.
The Western All-Stars took the opportunity to score frequently, making the score bigger and bigger.
With about 4 minutes left in the game, the Western Conference All-Stars had a 20-point lead.
The head coach of the Eastern All-Star team, Carlisle, replaced the main players and replaced them with players who hadn't played for a long time.
Seeing this, old Nelson waved his hand, replacing Li Xuan and others, and replaced Peja and others to play.
After substitutions and adjustments, the game turned into an entertainment game again. The two sides did not waste energy on defense, and played happily.
In the final stage, the Eastern All-Stars recovered some points, but the point difference was too big and there was no time to catch up.
With the piercing beep, the game came to an end.
In the end, the Western All-Stars defeated the Eastern All-Stars 142-128.
