Chapter 160 All-star game, three-point contest!

"Duen, can you temporarily take over the No. [-] position?"

Before the All-Star Game was about to start, Van Gundy discussed with Duane.

Duan thought that the starting lineup of this year's Western Conference All-Star team was Tracy McGrady, Kobe Bryant, Garnett, Duncan, and Yao Ming.

The Eastern All-Star team is himself, Iverson, Carter, Grant Hill and O'Neal.

In comparison, the Eastern All-Stars are at a disadvantage in terms of the height of their guards and forwards.

If a slight adjustment is made, if Du En takes the position of No. [-], he will still be slightly shorter, but at least he will be able to make sense.

"No problem, I'm the boss, and I can sacrifice in order to win."

After hearing Du En's statement, Carter and Grant Hill also cast grateful glances at Du En.

Although the All-Star game is undefended in the first three quarters, playing the fourth position still requires rebounding.

Whether it is Carter or Grant Hill, with their height and body trying to grab rebounds from Garnett and Duncan, this scene is undoubtedly too cruel.

"Don't worry, brother, just leave the inside line to Shaq."

In order to show his support for Duen, O'Neill took over all the inside work and let Duen be a space four.

Duan did not acknowledge O'Neal's sentiments, but instead joked: "Shaq, my scoring efficiency in the low post is no worse than yours!

Don't worry, whether it's KG or Tim Duncan, I have the ability to solve it.

You'd better think more about how to defend Yao Ming's shots! "

In the first three quarters of the All-Star game, Yao Ming did not take serious defense, and without physical confrontation, Yao Ming relied on his height advantage and solid basic skills to score at a very high efficiency.

And because Yao Ming basically doesn't play in the fourth quarter, it is almost impossible for O'Neal to perform better than Yao Ming in the All-Star Game.

Unexpectedly, O'Neal had already thought of a countermeasure.

"We can run. Yao Ming is not faster than Shaq! You guys will pass the ball to Shaq, right?"

When Du En heard this, he had nothing else to say and could only spread his hands towards O'Neal.

"Guys, come here! Enjoy the game, victory belongs to us. Come on, come on, come on!"

Seeing that time was almost up, Van Gundy gathered the members of the Eastern Conference All-Star Team and asked everyone to put their hands together and shout a few cheers.

After a while, the starting players of the two teams came on the court, and the All-Star Game began.

Yao Ming didn't take it seriously, and O'Neal helped the Eastern All-Stars get the ball.

When Iverson got the ball in the backcourt, he had no intention of cooperating with other teammates. He just played one by himself and used his speed to directly drive to the basket and complete a dunk.

During the offensive round of the Western Conference All-Star Team, McGrady dribbled the ball honestly through half the court, and then passed the ball to his good brother Kobe Bryant without rushing to attack.

Kobe saw Carter getting defensive, stood in front of him and stretched out his hand.

So Kobe was not interested in rushing to the basket, and directly faced Carter's interference and pulled up.

brush--

One shot and he hit a three-pointer.

Duane picked up the ball under the basket and immediately sent it to Grant Hill for him to advance quickly.

However, after halftime, Grant Hill did not attack himself, but passed the ball to Carter.

Carter faced Kobe's defense and was ready to fight back, but he shot for the first time.

Fortunately, the rebound bounced far away and bounced right in front of Duen. Duen stepped forward to get the offensive rebound and then passed the ball to Carter.

"Hey, this ball is so comfortable to catch!"

After Carter received the ball, he was about to dribble and adjust, but found that the receiving position was right in front of his chest and he could directly pick it up and shoot.

Carter's catch-and-shoot game was already good, but now he didn't waste Duan's offensive rebounds and passes, and directly pulled up and shot a three-pointer.

Kobe's defense was just a show-off, so Carter threw the ball without any pressure.

Brush - finally responded!Carter scored 3 points and Duan also got 1 assist.

"Kobe, do you want another one?" McGrady dribbled the ball again and asked Kobe's opinion.

Kobe shook his head and said, "Brother, come on!"

"Okay, I'll go find Duen!" McGrady nodded in response, and then took the initiative to look for Duen on the flank.

Du En heard McGrady mention him and understood what McGrady was thinking.

It's no fun to bully Iverson based on his height, but fighting Duan based on his strength is the purpose of McGrady's game tonight!

"Try the feel?"

Duan came out of the low post and came to the three-point line. He first reached out to interfere with McGrady, and then put his hand down when McGrady took off to shoot.

When Duan looked back at the basket, he saw McGrady throwing the ball into the basket with incredible accuracy.

Du En waved to O'Neal, and O'Neal immediately took the ball and slipped out of the baseline, passing the ball to Du En.

Du En quickly broke through and ran to the top of the frontcourt beyond the three-point line.

Seeing McGrady in front of him, he didn't even have the intention to stretch out his hand to defend. Instead of rushing to shoot, Duan said harshly: "I will score here!"

"I'm looking forward to your performance!" Maddie just smiled sleepily at Du En.

McGrady seemed to be expecting Duane to respond to his three-pointer.

Duan did not disappoint McGrady. He immediately showed his three-point champion strength, hit the target with one shot, and successfully responded to McGrady's previous shot.

"Good, Duane, you're turning me on even more!"

Today, there are only a few Eastern Conference All-Stars who can catch Tracy McGrady's eye, and Duane happens to be one of them.

In the previous preseason and regular season, McGrady lost to Duen many times, which made McGrady eager to regain his place from Duen.

Of course, tonight is not for revenge, McGrady is just for fun.

If he were still in the Eastern Conference, McGrady would also use the All-Star Game to play a few games with his good brother Kobe.

Seeing that Duan and McGrady had already started working together in advance, the other starters of the Western Conference All-Star Team had no intention of intervening. Instead, they chose to pass the ball to McGrady and support McGrady to have fun first.

As for McGrady, he also shot a three-pointer from the top of the arc, but this time he opened up some distance, one or two steps away from the top of the arc, and directly shot a super long three-pointer.

Arenas off the court saw McGrady make this shot and jumped up from the bench in excitement.

"Mom, how can you be without me at this time?"

Obviously, Arenas also likes the game between Duan and Tracy McGrady, but it is a pity that he is only an Eastern Conference All-Star substitute.

Duane, the true Eastern Conference All-Star starting guard, also received the support of his teammates and came to the frontcourt two or three steps away from the top of the key.

Immediately afterwards, without saying anything, Duan also shot a super long three-pointer that was farther away and more difficult to shoot.

"Oh my God, Duan is in too! Are their hands too hot?"

"I thought Tracy was crazy enough, but I didn't expect Duan to be wilder than Tracy!"

"These two guys really steal the show!"

"Tracy, one more, we can't lose to Duen!"

"Duen, keep up the good work and don't forget that you are the three-point champion!"

As both All-Star starters on the court, during this round of three-point competition between Duane and McGrady, it seemed that other than exclaiming, they had no chance to intervene.

If Duen and McGrady are the two leading actors in tonight's All-Star game, then they are ordinary supporting actors in this drama!
However, tonight's play is not really about two protagonists.

After McGrady and Duane made three consecutive three-pointers, McGrady's fourth three-pointer finally hit the mark, announcing the end of the performance early.

When Du En saw McGrady, he did not choose to pursue the victory. Instead, he passed the ball to other teammates and did not monopolize the ball.
