warrior godfather

After the Warriors defeated the Timberwolves, Zhang Yu put all the main lineup on the bench in the fourth quarter, which attracted the attention of the outside world.

In the post-match interview, Philip Sanders praised Zhang Yu's choice:

"We once got the initiative, but Coach Z made adjustments in time. This is a very bold decision. I think this is the key to the Warriors' final victory. We did not prepare for this. The Warriors want to win more. The team with the ball, they totally deserved the win..."

In a TNT program, this matter was specifically discussed.

O'Neill expressed dissatisfaction with Zhang Yu:
"I've never seen a head coach who would put the main lineup on the bench and let the bench lineup play the fourth quarter. It's disrespectful to the main players! Especially when you have Steph on the team- When a superstar like Curry, no matter how he performed before, you should put him on the court at the decisive moment, he is the mvp, the scoring leader, the championship, he has everything, he should have the dominance The power of the game!"

Barkley, who has always been on the opposite side of the Warriors, spoke for Zhang Yu this time:
"No, no, no, Shaq, you should watch the third quarter of this game. The main force of the Warriors is not only not performing well, their bodies are in a state of complete relaxation, and they don't take this game seriously at all, you know Do I mean?"

"They did miss a lot of shots, but that doesn't mean they won't come back in the fourth quarter..."

"If they just can't make shots, I believe that even if they lose the game in the end, Coach Z will never let them sit on the bench in the fourth quarter, but they have been beaten and their momentum has been completely taken away by the Timberwolves. As long as they are on the court , the situation cannot be reversed, because they have already panicked, and no matter how strong they are, they will not be able to show their strength. Instead, it is better to replace with a group of fresh troops. The coach's approach is correct, you don't understand this truth?"

"Of course I know, but this is just a regular season. The Warriors are 6 games ahead of the Rockets, which is second in the Western Conference. Losing a game is completely irrelevant. He shouldn't let the main lineup sit on the bench. It's not good for them. respect."

"Is their dignity more important than winning?"

Cole's face turned green when he saw the lineup of the international team.

After the third round of the All-Star voting, the Cavaliers made two trades, the lineup was changed, and they achieved a record of 5 wins and 2 losses. James' personal data is still luxurious, allowing him to hold the Eastern Conference in the final All-Star voting The position of the ticket king.

He immediately took the position of the starting center, showing excellent frame protection, rebounding, and screen ability, as well as a mid-range shot and support. He is not a pure blue-collar insider, but James' favorite type.

Curry, Clay, and Leonard looked at each other and smiled, and when they came to the same half, Zhang Yu also walked over and said:

In the first half, the US team felt hot, leading the international team by 63 points at 57:6.

This gave James fans another argument, saying that the Cavaliers are not the Big Three at all, and Love is just a brush in the Timberwolves. When the Cavaliers come, they will be exposed, and James is still alone.

Next came the three-point contest. Irving won the championship with 21 points, which was also uninteresting.

In addition, Ken averaged only 14 points per game, and the Spurs' record was not as good as that of the Mavericks. As a result, Duncan was selected as an All-Star substitute, but Nowitzki averaged 17 points per game, but Dirk Nowitzki was not selected, which made Dirk Nowitzki's fans very dissatisfied. Got into a fight with Duncan fans.

In the fourth quarter, the Eastern Conference's defense against Curry was extremely firm. They just refused to allow him to shoot three-pointers.

"He is the king of votes, can you compare with him?"

After the grand opening ceremony, players from both sides came to the field, and the 2014-2015 All-Star Game officially started.

But not everyone is optimistic about the Warriors breaking the record. In the first half of the season, the players have plenty of energy and concentration, and they can make rapid progress in the record. Invasion may become an obstacle for the Warriors to break the record.

With the arrival of Mozgov, the Cavaliers, who were stretched after Varejao was reimbursed for the season, finally had someone available.

Antetokounmpo played third, but he only completed a tomahawk-style dunk after hitting the ground and rebounding. An action that would make people excited in the game, but it seems mediocre in the slam dunk contest Yes, only 30 points.

The two teams switched back to all the main players and still did not defend, but the West's offense concentrated on Curry alone.

Feb. 2, 16 p.m., Madison Square Garden.

The international team didn't want to lose either. All the young talents from all over the world couldn't beat the US team. How embarrassing would that be?

In the third quarter, the two teams started their debut, and Curry hit two three-pointers when he came up.

No star in the East has to win this mvp, they are all paddling on the court.

In the final, Oladipo was at a disadvantage and only scored 72 points in two rounds. LaVine saw Oladipo's poor performance and lacked interest. Both actions were not as good as the first dunk in the first round, but the two At the end of the round, he also scored 94 points and was crowned the dunk king.

On January 1, the Warriors played against the Rockets at home. The main lineup was shameful. Curry scored 21 points, Clay scored 34 points, Leonard 23 points, Green had a triple-double with 21 points, 14 rebounds and 12 assists. The Warriors won 10:124 The Rockets beat the Rockets by 103 points and won two consecutive victories.

Such a performance, why can't he be selected as an All-Star?

On February 2, Zhang Yu announced that Harden, Leonard, and Aldridge would replace the three injured players and enter the starting lineup. Silver designated Lillard, Nowitzki, and Cousins ​​to enter the starting lineup. Everyone is happy.

People have already begun to discuss the possibility of the Warriors breaking the Bulls' record of 72 wins. As long as the Warriors can maintain the winning percentage in the first half of the season, they will definitely be able to break the Bulls' win record, and it is even possible to increase this record to 75 wins and 7 losses. Numbers of people feeling hopeless.

Moreover, people have a mentality of valuing the past and devaluing the present. In the eyes of many people, the Bulls' record of 72 wins is already a myth that cannot be broken.

He knows the strength of Wiggins, Antetokounmpo and Olynik better than anyone else. The three of them were originally partners in the bench lineup. They have been working together for half a season and have a good understanding. Jokic is another goal A team center with a very high quotient and not greedy for credit, isn't this equivalent to playing half of the Warriors' substitutes for the US team?

Curry glanced across everyone's faces, met their expectant gazes, and finally nodded and said:
"Okay, then I'll give it a try and get all the mvp trophies once, it sounds pretty good..."

In these two games, the Warriors went all out from the start to the bench, and they were merciless against the Kings. They established a 30-point lead in the first half, and made persistent efforts in the third quarter to widen the gap. At 48 points, the main players clocked in to get off work.

Therefore, Zhang Yu directly put Westbrook on the bench in the fourth quarter, allowing Lillard and Curry, who did not score much, to partner in the backcourt. Aldridge, Nowitz and Cousins ​​​​were all scoring in the frontcourt. Not many stars.

Griffin's popularity is indeed high, and the data decline can still be selected as the All-Star starter. Trail Blazers fans recognize it, but they raised objections to Paul's selection.

Xiao Hua did not change the three-point contest system that has been quite popular in recent years, but neither Curry nor Clay participated in this year's three-point contest. There are not many things to watch in the three-point contest, and the process is very dull.

People stopped paying attention to this rookie from Europe, and left his words behind.

On January 1, the Cavaliers and the Nuggets made a deal, using the 11 protected first-round pick from the Grizzlies and the Cavaliers' own 2015 protected first-round pick in exchange for Russian white center Mozgov.

In other teams, this is not a problem. No coach will bench the main lineup and let the full bench lineup play the fourth quarter.

Among them, the thick eyebrows won more than 136 million votes, ranking second in the All-Star voting in the West. third.

These remarks did not cause Love fans to refute, but made Bosh fans very dissatisfied.

"Stephen, I will arrange tactics for you, how about it? Do you want to get one? You already have the mvp of the rookie challenge, the regular season, and the finals, and you are only short of the All-Star game. Are you interested in getting them all? Gather?"

This tactic shocked the audience. Two insiders with a height of over 2 meters launched a pick-and-roll outside the three-point line. The visual impact was great. Most importantly, the effect was so good!
Relying on the pick-and-roll of Antetokounmpo and Jokic, the international team quickly expanded its lead. At the end of the third quarter, it had already led the US team by 11 points.

The notorious young guard from the Timberwolves, wearing Jordan's No. 23 jersey in "Space Jam," starts from the right side, strides into the paint, soars into the air, glides under the rim, and looks down slightly. Dodging the net, changing hands under the crotch, looking back at the moon, smashing the ball into the basket with the right hand, neat and elegant!
The quiet Barclays Center erupted in an instant, and all the judges gave full marks. O'Neill, who served as a judge, opened his mouth and showed the exact same expression when he saw Carter slam dunk with a 360-degree turn.

DeRozan, Horford, Millsap, Butler, Irving, Bosh, and Wade were selected for the Eastern Conference All-Star bench, and the Bulls became the big winner, with three players selected for the All-Star team.

Such an easy-to-use center was sent away by the Nuggets because he had lost his place in the Nuggets.

This lineup has achieved certain results after it first played. Pope, Dinwiddie, and Oladipo scored three consecutive three-pointers to help the US team overtake the score.

At the end of the first half, the score came to 87:80, and the Eastern team narrowed the point difference to 7 points.

This not only increases confrontation, but also confronts American rookies and international rookies, which greatly increases the sense of substitution of American fans. Foreign fans are classified into the same camp. The two sides have long argued on the Internet about the gap between American and international basketball levels. , the popularity of the rookie challenge soared.

He raised the mvp trophy of the Rookie Challenge in his hand and shook it vigorously.

The reverse is also the same. Antetokounmpo screened for Jokic, and the opponent switched defenses. Jokic pushed his back all the way to the basket, using his soft touch, lightly tossed, and scored two points.

The scuffle between several fans has become a repertoire after the announcement of the All-Star lineup, and it also adds excitement to the All-Star Weekend.

The rookie challenge has changed from the original system of selecting players from famous celebrities to an international team composed of international rookies against the US team composed of American rookies. Hawks assistant coach Kenny Atkinson serves as the international team coach and the Warriors assistant coach Steve Kerr is the head coach of Team USA.

Zhang Yu, Curry, Leonard, and Clay sat in the first row on the sidelines and waved vigorously towards the court.

"Hey, boss, can you respect the Americans around you?" Curry quit, glaring at Zhang Yu.

Trail Blazers fans complained quite a bit, but they also knew that Harden and Westbrook's statistics were too impressive, so they pointed the finger at Paul.

Jokic screened for Antetokounmpo, and the opponent switched defenses. Antetokounmpo directly played big and small, and rolled into the penalty area to score.

Subsequently, the Eastern team began to strengthen the defense against Curry. As long as he came to the top of the arc, someone would go up to defend him and not give him space to shoot a three-pointer.

On the court, the intensity was full after the start of the game. The two teams confronted each other fiercely, and they fought with real knives and guns. There was no performance atmosphere of the All-Star Weekend at all.

This statement was most in line with everyone's wishes. The stars of the western team all smiled, scattered and started training.

Zhang Yu's rage in the locker room not only did not make the Warriors' main players feel resentful, but instead aroused their competitiveness.

He has been trained by the Nuggets and has lived up to the management's expectations.

The audience is more curious about what kind of performance the Greek monster, who has repeatedly contributed wonderful fast break dunks in the game, will perform in the dunk contest.

The Bulls have a record of 43 wins and 8 losses in the past ten years, which is enough to rank first in the league, but they were left behind by the Warriors. After half a season of chasing, the record has never been close, and even the disadvantage is getting worse. , which has never happened in the past ten years

At this time, Clay leaned over:
"Stephen, get one! You are only short of an All-Star mvp, and your personal honor is a grand slam, right? This year is a good opportunity, it would be a pity not to get one!"

The feeling of sitting on the bench and watching a backup comeback and save their own mistakes is just too bad, and they'll never let that happen again.

The excellent record of the Warriors made Curry re-elected as the best player of the week in the Western Conference. This is the sixth time he has won the best player of the week this season. It has always been ranked No.1 on the ranking list, and has never slipped.

After Curry failed to get a three-point shot for two consecutive offenses, Zhang Yu made adjustments and replaced Clay, and the West team's offense changed again.

But after the start of the second half, Atkinson put on a very large lineup, Schroeder, Wiggins, Antetokounmpo, Olynik, and Jokic appeared on the field at the same time, and the three players of the Warriors made their debut at the same time. The next position was swayed, and the international team had the advantage in the matchup.

Before the official training started, Zhang Yu gathered all the Western All-Stars and cleared his throat. These are the core big-name stars in each team. They stopped chatting and joking and waited for him. speech.

After the game, Zhang Yu stood on the sidelines and watched Antetokounmpo receive the Rookie Challenge mvp trophy. Olynyk, Wiggins, and Dinwiddie stood next to them, wiping the sweat off their faces with a towel. Talking and laughing with Clay and Leonard in a low voice.

阿德托昆博也凭借全场24投11中，三分4中1，罚球9中6，砍下29分5篮板6助攻3抢断3封盖的出色表现，荣膺新秀挑战赛mvp。

保罗本赛季场均只有18.2分10.3助攻4.6篮板1.2抢断，观感上比利拉德的21+6要逊色不少。

Cole arranged a lot of tactics for the US team to shoot three-pointers after the pick-and-roll, small hits and big dislocations against the center, while Atkinson let the international team try to hit every ball inside to take advantage of the inside.

Is it more important to win a regular season, or the face of the main players?

The three teammates Wiggins, Antetokounmpo, and Olynyk played together, naturally took control of the ball and played a lot of pass and cut cooperation.

Soon, it took the international team 3 minutes to recover the point difference and overtake the US team by 4 points.

But the audience at the scene still didn't buy it. The skill challenge competition was too poor to watch. There was nothing to watch, and it was really uninteresting.

Curry said loudly:
"Hey, Spencer, come on!"

But after the start of the second quarter, people discovered that this All-Star Game began to change.

Afterwards, the East team began to chase and intercept Curry, defending pick-and-rolls and changing defenses, resolutely not allowing him to shoot three-pointers.

This time, the Eastern Army became completely serious.

That's what James fans said about Bosh at the beginning, and many people believed it. As soon as James left, Bosh's scoring average immediately rose to 20+.

"Come on, let's practice the tactics we will use tomorrow..."

And since the start of the game, he has taken a rest in addition to one game.Full attendance, averaged 19.3 points, 5.6 rebounds, 2.5 assists, 2.2 steals, and 0.8 blocks per game. In the end, he overwhelmed Durant, who had a worrying attendance rate, and was selected for the All-Star bench.

Paul sent out a few more assists than Lillard, but he only scored more than a dozen points per game, and his performance at critical moments was not as good as Lillard's. The Clippers' record was not much better than that of the Trail Blazers. Ladd can't be selected?
Of course, Paul fans can't sit back and watch others question Paul's All-Star status, and immediately start a match with Lillard fans, saying words like "God of Position Control" and "King of Field Control" Ladd fans pressed down.

After Love joined the Cavaliers, his data declined severely, averaging only 16.5 points, 8.7 rebounds and 2.1 assists per game. From a data monster of 26+12+4, he directly degenerated into a role player, missing the All-Star for the first time in four years.

The slam dunk contests in the past few years have been as dull as water. The slam dunk movements have no new ideas, no aesthetics, and no power. They are far less attractive than the three-point contests that Curry and Clay participated in.

Zhang Yu looked at the stars who had been defeated by the Warriors in front of him and said with a smile:
"Guys, wait for everyone to shoot and look for the state. Don't work too hard and take a good rest. I don't want your head coach to accuse me of deliberately exhausting your energy and using improper means after the All-Star weekend. Compete..."

Curry shook his head:
"I'm not interested, boss, that thing's useless!"

This is also the purpose of Atkinson to let them play at the same time. The players on both sides have only practiced together for a few hours, and the offense and defense are not tacit. The tacit understanding of the Wiggins three is to reduce dimensionality.

Commentators also criticized Jokic's remarks. After foreign players joined the NBA, they all said that the NBA is difficult to play and the intensity of confrontation is high. When will it be the rookie's turn to "underestimate" the NBA?
And Jokic did not make any reply to these criticisms, he just continued to play, and when a reporter asked him, he laughed it off, as if he knew he had made a slip of the tongue and was actively avoiding this topic.

Curry gave the ball to Leonard/Clay, then ran without the ball, ran out of space with the cover of Clay/Leonard, and then caught the ball and made a three-pointer.

This rookie challenge with real knives and real guns also made the fans hooked, and Xiao Hua's first step in the All-Star transformation was a great success.

In this game, Stevens resolutely implemented the defensive strategy of pinching Curry and pinched Splash's three-pointer.

After two days of highs and lows, the all-star weekend finally came to the most important part.

People pay more attention to the Warriors' games, especially those who hate the Warriors. Conflict" and the like.

This is only a small part of the online fan base. With all the spots for the All-Star Game released, the atmosphere of the All-Star Weekend has become more and more intense. Fans have begun to discuss who should be selected for the All-Star Game , who should not be selected, a fierce debate broke out.

After Curry dribbled the ball for halftime, he no longer passed the ball like in the first quarter. As long as the opponent didn't come up against him, he raised his hand and shot, raised his hand and dropped it, and he made three-pointers.

This kind of controversy continued until the official start of the All-Star Game before it came to an end.

But the record of the Warriors is really brutal. After the bloodbath of the King, they defeated the Jazz and the Celtics in a row, but suffered their fourth defeat of the season in the home game against the Bulls.

Under the huge point difference, neither side has any reason to really fight.

Although they don't care about winning or losing the All-Star Game, they don't want to lose miserably to their opponents, especially don't want to see which star in the opponent's team scores high points.

"Shut up, Kawhi, do you still want to play? Watch out I'll put you back on the bench!"

Everyone laughed, among them Curry had the loudest laugh, and Duncan had the weirdest smile. Harden shrugged:

The remaining three contestants are LaVine, Oladipo, and Plumlee. They are all rookies in the past two years. The dunk contest has become a stage for rookies to show their bounce.

Just when people's attention was drawn to the All-Stars, the Warriors got back on track after losing to the Bulls, defeating the Suns, Kings, Mavericks, Eagles, Knicks, 76ers, and Timberwolves in a row, achieving seven consecutive victories and a record Came to 47 wins and 4 losses, ranking first in the league, extending the lead over the No.2 Bulls to 4 wins.

The lineup of the international team is even more luxurious. Antetokounmpo, Olynyk, Jokic, Adams, and Gobert gathered together and dominated the penalty area.

The laughter subsided slowly, and everyone remembered how terrifying the Warriors' record was. The second-ranked Rockets were 9 games behind the Warriors, not to mention their team. Zhang Yu didn't need to use any means. It is impossible for other teams to catch up.

Westbrook's desire to score is very strong. He scored 31 points in the first three quarters, second only to Curry in the Western team, and the only one who has the hope of competing with Curry for mvp.

After entering the intermission, the enthusiasm of the fans on the scene has dropped a lot, and it is another year of non-defensive performance competitions. No matter how many stars there are, it is nothing to watch.

In the second dunk, Antetokounmpo and Plumlee still relied on defense and scored 35 and 36 points respectively. Oladipo scored 360 points with a 50-degree swivel dunk and advanced to the final.

"Please get an mvp first, and then say the NBA is easier!"

"No, Shaq, winning is more important. They play to win. If they can't win, they should play someone who can win the game."

If Curry's excellence is expected, the Warriors' half-time record of 47 wins and 4 losses is crazy.

LaVine was the last to play. He changed back to the Timberwolves No. 8 jersey, and with a behind-the-scenes change of hands, he still scored 50 points and advanced to the final with a full score.

Although the current number one in the Eastern Conference is the Bulls, Stevens was the All-Star head coach of the Eastern Conference last season, and this year he can only give up his position to Budenholzer.

But the defense of the international team expanded accordingly. Except for Jokic who couldn't defend, everyone else quickly rotated. Antetokounmpo even swept around on the defensive end, successfully interfering with the US team's shots many times and stabilizing the situation. .

"Hahaha……"

When Antetokounmpo raised the trophy, the fans cheered loudly and gave applause to this wonderful game. Zhang Yu also applauded vigorously, turned to look at Curry who was also smiling and applauding, and said loudly:
"Stephen, did you see the applause from the audience? Get an All-Star MVP!"

"Don't worry, tomorrow I will surprise you and everyone."

Just when the remaining patience of the audience was about to run out, LaVine appeared.

"..."

Originally, Durant would be selected for this year's Western Conference All-Star bench, but Leonard suddenly emerged and replaced him.

……

On January 1, the Warriors challenged the Kings away. Curry scored 23 points, Clay scored 28 points, scored 36 three-pointers, scored 9 points in the third quarter, Leonard had 27 points, Green had 20 points, 15 rebounds and 8 rebounds. Assists, the main lineup clocked in three quarters, the Warriors beat the Kings by 9 points 145:101, winning three consecutive victories.

……

And with Griffin suffering from injuries and Crawford's decline, the Clippers' record is not as good as last season, only leading the Blazers by 2 wins, but two players were selected to the All-Star.

Zhang Yu smiled and said:

Three new aids quickly entered the Cavaliers' rotation. Smith and Shumpert effectively supplemented the shooting and defense of the Cavaliers' flanks. Smith became the starter, replacing Mike Miller, and Shumpert became the No. [-] on the second position. substitute.

"That's right, boss, you're firing a map gun..." Leonard also complained.

"Do you know what winning is better than me? I have 4 champions, what kind of champion are you?" O'Neill could not refute, and could only release the final big move.

The next morning, the All-Star team practiced at the Barclays Center.

The first one was a "Shooting Star" competition with retired celebrities, active NBA players and active WNBA players. Curry teamed up with Dell and Sue Bird to participate, but failed to enter the finals. Ash, Dominique Wilkins and Swain Cash won.

At the end of the first quarter, the score came to 47:45, with the West leading by 2 points.

When Curry was closely flanked.Only Leonard stood up and scored 22 points through a mid-range attack, but the Bulls' offensive efficiency was still higher, and finally defeated the Warriors 105:98.

The Western Conference starts with Curry, Kobe, Thick Eyebrow, Griffin, and Gasol Jr. Zhang Yu also became the head coach of the Western Conference All-Star Team for the second time.

Then, the Eastern team saw Leonard go up to cover Curry, and Curry used the screen to make a shot and made two more three-pointers.

"Stephen, I won the mvp of the Rookie Challenge, and you can win another mvp in the main game and directly dominate the All-Star Game!"

After the slam dunk contest, Antetokounmpo returned to the bench, and Zhang Yu and the others were next to him. After Antetokounmpo and the others punched each other, they said to Curry:
"Stephen, I failed to win the slam dunk contest, it's up to you tomorrow."

This year's slam dunk contest was changed from the fans' selection to the judges' scoring, but it did not arouse people's interest. The only concern was that Antetokounmpo, who won the rookie challenge mvp yesterday, also signed up for the slam dunk contest.

The Warriors' rookies Antetokounmpo, Olynik, Dinwiddie, and Wiggins were all selected for the Rookie Challenge. Among them, only Dinwiddie is American, and the other three have entered the international team.

It wasn't until Curry made 4 consecutive three-pointers that were equivalent to the difficulty of training that the opponent began to defend, but the pounce was still not hard enough. Curry could get a chance with a shake and continue to shoot three-pointers.

But this failure didn't have much impact on the Warriors' record. Leonard's team record is still far better than Durant's.

"Haha, the season is not over yet, everything is possible, work hard." Zhang Yu smiled and encouraged, and then changed the subject, "Tomorrow's tactics are very simple, point guards hold the ball, play a few more pick-and-rolls, and take advantage of the opportunity You can shoot, don't be cautious, the most important thing is to have fun, well, let's start training!"

This season is Xiao Hua's first full season after he took office. The new official took office three fires, and the change of the penalty scale is the first fire. It has already been shown in the playoffs of last season, and this season continues. , The suspense of the game has increased sharply, and his next second fire is the reform of the All-Stars.

The U.S. team is led by McAway, Dinwiddie, Oladipo, Alfred Payton, Cody Zeller, Caldwell-Pope and other players also played in their respective teams. An important role, the outside firepower is very fierce.

This year's All-Star Weekend will be held in two venues. The Rookie Challenge and individual events will be held at Barclays Center, and the All-Star Game will be held at Madison Square Garden, the mecca of basketball.

But to their disappointment, none of that happened.

In the end, the international team defeated the US team 125:112 and achieved the first victory since the rookie challenge was restructured.

The U.S. team wants to win the game to prove that U.S. basketball is still the world's hegemon.

"Hehe, if someone like him can win the mvp, I'll live broadcast and eat Xie Te!"

"You are a fat European, can you play ball?"

Cole immediately called a timeout, heartbroken, and replaced a small lineup composed of Dinwiddie, Oladipo, McAway, Pope, and Plumlee, using the American team's three-point shooting Advantage, fight with the international team for offense.

Barkley showed no sign of weakness:
"Are you saying that you were swept six times, and then played with Kobe and Wade, and only won four championships? Then I am really not as good as you..."

Only then did they suddenly realize that it wasn't that Bosh had degenerated, but that Bosh's sacrifice was too great!

The specific Eastern Conference starters are Rose, Wall, James, Anthony, and Gasol, and the head coach is Eagles coach Mike Budenholzer.

The opening ceremony was exciting, but as usual, after the game started, there was almost no confrontation. Players from both sides dunked and I shot a three-pointer. The defense was useless, and the score rose alternately at an alarming rate.

The two fell into a tear that the audience loved, but their dialogue aroused the fans' deep thinking.

This sentence made Jokic suddenly pushed to the cusp of the storm. Some American fans couldn't understand his attitude of not taking the NBA seriously, and they ridiculed:

Several people were chatting and laughing on the sidelines. The jump ball was over and the Rookie Challenge officially started.

The feel of other Warriors players fluctuated, and they couldn't make a three-pointer, and the Warriors' offense stagnated.

After the All-Star bench lineup was released, Trail Blazers fans were very dissatisfied with the result, thinking that Lillard should be selected as an All-Star bench.

Wade in the East was also accidentally injured before the start of the All-Star weekend, and Silver appointed Lowry to enter the bench lineup.

After Jokic landed in the NBA, he played more than a dozen games as a substitute, quickly adapted to the NBA environment, and replaced Mozgov as the starting center.

No matter how good the Warriors are and how amazing their records are, there are always many people trying to argue how powerful the Bulls are, and how difficult it is to replicate the record of 72 wins. Although the Warriors are now invincible, it is absolutely impossible to break this record. record.

That night, at 07:30, various individual events were held at the Barclays Center.

You have already broken the all-star single-game three-point record, and you have made endless shots. Let us be your background board, and you don't take us seriously!

Players on both sides went all out, the score rose alternately, and the game was inextricably linked.

That is, on this day, all the All-Star voting ended, and Curry was elected as the All-Star vote leader with more than 164 million votes, leading the second James by nearly 20 votes.

Curry laughed:

On the offensive end, Jokic learned without a teacher, joined the pass-and-cut tactics of the Warriors trio, and quickly replaced Olynik's role as a card dealer, squeezing him to the bottom corner to be a shooter.

In the fourth quarter, Kerr still fought with five small lineups, but the American team's players felt fluctuated, and their three-point shooting percentage dropped, while the international team mainly played inside, scored more stably, and held the lead.

After the reorganization, the confrontation of the Skills Challenge was greatly increased. After fierce competition, the champion was finally won by Beverly.

Bosh fans and James fans started a match on the Internet about this matter, and Wade fans who were dissatisfied with James leaving the Heat also joined in, but the James fans were huge and easily won the victory.

At 6 minutes and 13 seconds into the first quarter, an official timeout was entered, the two teams replaced all substitutes, and the defense was still useless.

When the final slam dunk contest started, the audience didn't expect much from it.

They have already sentenced Jokic to a death sentence for his future career. There are not many white centers with such athletic ability who can play well, and at most they will be killed by a weak team starter.

Clay put his hands to his mouth and shouted:
"Spencer, kill them!"

"Then you have to be able to catch up..."

In this way, the eastern team had to be serious.

Some people refute the Warriors' 22-game winning streak, and they can cite many examples for this. For example, the Heat have won 27 consecutive victories before, and the Lakers even won 33 consecutive victories, but in the end they didn't even get 70 victories, so Warriors' winning streak says nothing...

But for a rookie at the end of the first round, this is not a shortcoming. Jokic's performance gave the Nuggets a huge surprise. Connery decisively established him as the future core of the team and gave him a lot of time Leveling, gave up Mozgov.

……

……

Just after halfway through the second quarter, Curry made three more three-pointers. Counting the two in the first quarter, he has already made nine three-pointers, breaking the All-Star single-game three-pointer at halftime. With the ball record, the Western Conference's lead has also come to 3 points.

But this year's melee ended extremely early. Kobe was injured before, and Thick Eyebrow and Griffin were accidentally injured in the game after the starting lineup was announced, leaving 3 places vacant.

It is worth mentioning that in an interview, a reporter asked Jokic about the difference between playing in the Serbian KLS league and the NBA. Jokic thought for a while, with a puzzled expression, and said slowly:

Lillard has risen rapidly in the past two years, especially with his powerful key ball performance, he has gained a wave of fans.

This crazy victory shocked the entire league, and it also made the speculation that there would be conflicts in the Warriors locker room disappear without a trace. Before the victory, there is no contradiction.

So far, the All-Star lineup has been confirmed. On February 2, the All-Star Weekend will be held in New York, co-hosted by Madison Square Garden and Barclays Center.

"Hey, buddy, it's not like that. A center can't run, can't jump. The biggest sign is to shoot with some weird postures. Don't talk about mvp. After finishing his contract, he has to Go back to Serbia!"

The three of Curry support Dinwiddie, Zhang Yu is not American, of course he chooses to support the international team, although there are no Chinese players in the international team...

If there is no Leonard, the coach will definitely still choose Durant, although he spends most of his time recovering from injuries.

At this point, the Rookie Challenge is about to begin, and players from both sides come to the court, ready to jump the ball.

Lillard averaged 21.4 points, 6.5 assists, 4.9 rebounds and 1.2 steals per game this season. Together with Aldridge, he led the Trail Blazers to rank fourth in the Western Conference, and has repeatedly performed well at critical moments.

"Ahem, well, I shut up, but Stephen did too..."

"I don't feel any different, it's all the same to me, the NBA is a little easier..."

The second event is the skill challenge competition. Under Xiao Hua's reform, the competition system has changed to eight people participating, divided into four groups, and confronted in pairs. The winner will advance to the next round, and the loser will be eliminated until the final champion is determined.

Maybe Zhang Yu is the only one in the league who dares to do this, but even if he is the owner of the Warriors, won't he be afraid of causing conflicts in the locker room if he lets the main players sit on the bench?

Several other people also gathered around and booed one after another, persuading Curry to get an All-Star mvp.

Then came the rotation time, both Zhang Yu and Budenholzer replaced the main players, and let the stars selected for the bench lineup perform.

February 2, 14 p.m., Barclays Center, New York.

On January 1, the league officially announced the All-Star bench lineup. The Warriors ushered in a bumper harvest. Clay and Leonard were both selected for the Western All-Star bench lineup. Harden, Westbrook, Aldridge, Paul, and Duncan took the lead. 30 places remaining.

"Andrew, Giannis, Kelly, fight hard, show these Yankees some color!"

Halfway through the season, Jokic averaged 10.6 points, 7.6 rebounds, 3.2 assists, 1 steal, and 0.6 blocks per game. His true shooting percentage was 58.2%, and his three-point shooting percentage was 33.3%. , can play back, the offensive end can be said to have no weaknesses, but the defensive end is not fast, and the pick-and-roll defense is somewhat disadvantaged.

……

At this time, Antetokounmpo came over after accepting the interview. He heard the conversation of the crowd, put his arms around Curry, and shouted:

Zhang Yu also shouted with a smile:

He even ran a pick-and-roll with Antetokounmpo, and it worked out well.

Oladipo and Plum were the first to play, and their actions were lackluster. They scored 39 and 40 points respectively, and the audience's expectations were further lowered.

On January 1, the Cavaliers and the Knicks made a deal, using three marginal rotations Alex Kirk, Joe Harris, Louis Amundson, and a 9 second-round pick in exchange for Iman Hong Porter, JR-Smith and a 2019 second-round pick.

The three of them had a tacit understanding, and Curry could get a chance with a simple back run. In the third quarter, he made three more three-pointers, and the Western team's lead expanded to 3 points.

He has scored enough points, as long as the Western Conference team can win the game, he will definitely get the All-Star mvp.

"I said, this is just an ordinary regular season, there is absolutely no need for Coach Z to do this."

After Lillard came on the court, he was very excited. He just took the ball and scored 3 points in 12 minutes. However, he played too little time before and only scored 3 points, which was not enough to threaten Curry.

In the end, Lillard scored 25 points in the fourth quarter to help the West beat the East 178:163, but the All-Star mvp belonged to Curry, who scored 16 three-pointers and scored 50 points.

With this trophy, Curry finally achieved the MVP Grand Slam.
