When pride still matters

Chapter 300 The demons dance wildly

Before the All-Star Game officially started, Yao Huang and Tracy McGrady gave speeches on the court as the hosts.

This part of the work is mainly done by Yao Huang, because McGrady has been in a melancholy mood recently, and his situation is just like the Rockets this season.

The experience of seven bloody games with the Mavericks last season gave the Rockets greater confidence in this season, but a series of injuries have hindered their ambitions. Not to mention that Yao Huang had just recovered from a serious foot injury, McGrady also began to suffer from congenital spinal problems and therefore missed many games, but this was not the worst.

The worst thing is that in the past few months, McGrady has experienced the death of a family member, the murder of a close friend, and a recent major tragedy that he himself is unwilling to disclose.

This put McGrady in extreme EMO.

It's a pity that this is 2006, not after 2020. You can't disappear because of a "minor" family problem, or even directly ask for a long leave from the team. This doesn't work, at least in the eyes of today's people, this is ridiculous. As a player, enduring physical and mental pain and fighting against fate are the basic requirements of the public for players.

Therefore, McGrady's desire to take a leave of absence was not fulfilled, and he also came to participate in the All-Star Game, which he originally did not want to participate in.

But fortunately, the Western Stars are not as chaotic as the Eastern Stars.

Even an abnormal person like Kobe Bryant has a very good personal relationship with McGrady. They are willing to work together to create a big stage for McGrady to have a good time at home.

That's why at the beginning of the game, Kobe went out of his way and gave McGrady a pass.

McGrady made a three-pointer but didn't make it.

For the Eastern Stars, Yu Fei took the lead, easily getting past Carter who was pretending to defend seriously, and rushed to the basket to score a dunk.

Afterwards, it is the guest who sets the stage for the host to sing the script.

It's just that the person responsible for passing the ball became Duncan.

Duncan suddenly transformed into Sabonis and sent a precise lob pass to Yao Huang in the small space in the paint area, assisting Yao Huang to score a slam dunk.

Then, Iverson rushed to the basket for a layup like a killer, but missed after being interfered with.

Kobe ran around casually to defend and counterattack. Because the defensive intensity was low enough, few people were willing to retreat and directly gave Kobe a chance to dunk.

A few seconds later, it was Yu Fei again. He pointed at O'Neal to pick and roll like a dog.

O'Neal sneered and took a position, as if "I will give you a pick-and-roll today and I will be a dog".

Fortunately, even though no one in the Eastern Star Team seems to want to be a human being, there is still a steely man under this thick black heart who is willing to do something useful to the team. After all, an inside player like him, Without the help of his teammates, he won't have much chance to perform even in the All-Star Game.

Jermaine O'Neal, the only starting All-Star in the Indiana Pacers, came to Yu Fei to pick and roll regardless of previous suspicions.

But this was just Yu Fei's fake move. Yu Fei suddenly took a large lateral step in the opposite direction of the pick-and-roll and then took off on one foot to make an independent three-pointer from the Golden Rooster.

"Shh!"

"This is good news for the fans, Frye's desire to perform tonight is very strong!"

Yu Fei expressed his approval of O'Neal's approach: "Just for your pick-and-roll, I forgive you for ruining my three consecutive championships last year."

O'Neal Jr. shouted: "You have to pass the ball, Dafei, you can't do it alone!"

What a joke, I'm going to pretend to be Kobe 03, why can't I still be a tumor?

But having said that, although Yu Fei, as the starting guard in the Eastern Conference, has the convenience of having the ball in grabbing AMVP, if he really plays every ball by himself, it will inevitably arouse public outrage. Therefore, it is right to let O'Neal become his ally. What's acceptable, isn't it just to pass a few balls to him? What's so difficult about this.

He's like Kobe Bryant in 03, who averages close to 6 assists per game, so he has to do all the tricks.

"Okay, I'll pass the ball to you." Yu Fei said.

The Western star team continued to support each other's warm drama, which almost made O'Neal vomit.

When Kobe Bryant came in for a layup, he acted like a ruthless hater of "labor and management have grudges and revenge today."

"When are you going to put a layup over my head?"

O'Neill shouted arrogantly.

However, Duncan got the rebound, and he immediately added a goal and scored easily.

For the Eastern Stars, the ball finally came into someone else's hands.

Iverson controlled the ball and moved forward. He told Fei that he wanted AMVP as a joke, but when he saw Yu Fei unceremoniously playing singles continuously, he knew that the MVP was really meant to be snatched.

What else can you say? All singles.

When Iverson played a ball in isolation for nearly 20 seconds, George Karl put his head in his hands and felt a dull pain in his prostate. If he watched this ugly game a few more times, he would definitely relapse.

Iverson failed to score, but O'Neal grabbed the offensive rebound.

Yao Huang opened his hands and pushed O'Neal's torso with his body. According to the standards of the All-Star Game, this was considered a strong defense.

O'Neal pushed Yao Huang away and dunked hard under the basket.

Whether it is a live audience or an audience in front of the TV, just watching a few rounds can tell the inconsistency in the attitude of the Eastern and Western All-Star teams towards the game.

The Western Conference Stars are relaxed and have the mentality to make way for Tracy McGrady and Yao Shuan.

The Eastern Stars are a bunch of dogs. Whoever gets the ball will attack. They will be anxious if they can't score. If they score, they will celebrate with all kinds of gestures.

In this case, it is difficult not to heat up the game. As a notoriously eccentric person who likes to play seriously in the All-Star Game, Kobe has been very restrained tonight.

But O'Neal received trash talk and the attitude of the Eastern Stars, which naturally aroused his 81-point spirit. As a superstar who is relying on his performance on the court to regain his reputation, he recently scored 81 points in a single game against the Raptors. points, shocking the basketball world. If you really want him to give it a try on this occasion, he can do better than anyone else.

After being stimulated by O'Neal and others in the East, Kobe began to play singles, and the Western Stars' smooth transfer of the ball was interrupted in his hands.

Kobe dribbled the ball, swayed, straightened his body and suddenly stopped for a fadeaway jumper.

hit!

At this point, the good guy in the West is -1, and the person who passed the ball to McGrady is -1.

"Jermaine, serve me."

When Yu Fei, Iverson and James asked for the ball at the same time, O'Neal felt like he was the most needed person in the world.

Then, he gave the ball to Yu Fei.

"Don't say you were from the 1996 class in the future!" Iverson shouted.

O'Neal Jr. frowned and replied: "This is different. Da Fei and I are both high school players. We are in the same league!"

Yu Fei likes to hear this.

But James didn't like to hear it: "I'm also a high school player."

Little O'Neal's answer gave the young emperor a critical hit of 100,000: "You and Da Fei are nothing compared to each other!"

Within a few words, they had already reached the frontcourt.

Seeing that Xiao Zhan's face was not good-looking, Yu Fei smoothed things over and shouted to Xiao Ao: "Okay, Jermaine, if you want me to pass the ball to you, you have to make sure this is the last time you disrespect me." My little brother!”

While Yu Fei was talking, Xiao Ao had already closed his ears and started to pick and roll.

His speed was too fast, and Yu Fei faced the threat of double-teaming without taking advantage of the pick-and-roll.

However, Yu Fei was not afraid at all. He leaned forward and hooked the ball into the air from behind with his left hand.

As far as viewing is concerned, no matter what the occasion, this is the kind of pass that can make people scream.

Xiao Ao jumped up and dunked in an alley-oop.

"Good pass! Good pass!" Xiao Ao was very happy, "Da Fei! This is what you should do!"

"Also, what did you just say?"

Well.

Yu Fei glanced at Xiao Zhan, who had already retreated, "I said you are the best O'Neal in the league."

Xiao Ou said modestly: "I'm still a little bit worse than Shaq."

"Don't compare yourself with a dog." As long as he can disgust his enemies, Yu Fei can even make himself look bad. "How many times has that big fat pig defeated me? How many times have you defeated me? You are much better than him."

After hearing what Yu Fei said, Xiao Ao also swelled.

Looking at it this way, he is really the strongest O'Neal in the league. No, you can go one step further. He is the strongest O'Neal in history.

Karl on the sidelines let go of his hanging heart.

At first, he was worried that Yu Fei would be isolated by others, but now it seems that he was worried in vain.

The only star from the Eastern Conference who had a grudge against Yu Fei was O'Neal. The others were all at odds with each other, and O'Neal had a similar temperament with him. The two were inexplicably in sync with each other, so much so that Karl looked at O'Neal a few times.

However, Karl understood that Yu Fei could quickly get along with Xiao Ao. On the one hand, as an opponent, Xiao Ou hits hard every time he beats the Bucks, and he is extremely dominant in the paint. On the other hand, when he wins the ball, he almost never gets in trouble with Da Fei. It can be said that he has both virtue and skill. In addition, he Looks like a luxurious version of Kwame Brown in every way.

Yu Fei has worked with many top outsiders, but he has never teamed up with top insiders. This is a small regret for him.

And Xiao Ao is like Kwame Brown in Yu Fei's dream.

With Xiao Ao as a helper, it will not be difficult to win the AMVP tonight.

Karl began to think about how to arrange the subsequent rotations. Although he was the coach of the Eastern Stars, everything he did would take Yu Fei's needs into consideration. If Yu Fei wants AMVP, then no matter what the reason is, he, as the coach of the Eastern Star Team, cannot work in vain, and God cannot stop him from favoring Da Fei.

Karl watched the game for a while and suddenly had an idea.

Well, maybe try a combination of Frye, Kevin (Martin), Jermaine, Chris (Bosh) and Paul (Pierce).

This may be the most suitable lineup for Da Fei to get data. A younger brother of his own team can open up space. A rookie All-Star who is tied up must be able to command like a master. Ou already has a tacit understanding. As for Pierce, because the Celtics chose Completely demolished and rebuilt, as a star player who is healthy and led the team to the Eastern Conference Finals not long ago, he is as EMO as Tracy McGrady.

But you know, the Eastern Stars are all dogs. Who cares whether you are EMO or not? If you like playing, go to the corner to smoke if you don’t want to roll around. Don’t delay Dafei’s statistics.

Thinking of this, Karl felt better.
