NBA: Start by torturing Jordan and add points to upgrade

In the next few minutes of the game, the two sides continued to compete for their own rhythms. Dayao, who could not stand up to his opponent, came to the high post and the elbow area more, playing inside passes with Gasol or high and low cooperation. His advantages in height and hand feel are fully utilized.

How easy would it be for two big men who are over 7 feet tall and both have silky hands and can pass the ball to play together? This game is the perfect example.

Of course, the main reason why the two Nets can play so comfortably under the basket is because the pair of Ben and Harrington are too short. The two of them together can barely reach 4 meters. The combination of Gasol and Dayao, who are almost 4 meters tall, is really impossible to beat.

As the game progressed, in the middle of the third quarter, Kidd hit a 3-pointer that looked like a blooming iron tree, tying the score between the two sides. Carlisle quickly called a timeout.

It’s time to adjust your tactics and come up with something real!
"Lin, Vince, Reggie, Gilbert and Brad, you five come on! The defense all moved forward and put me in front of the two big men, making it impossible for them to catch the ball easily, and also made it difficult for them to catch the ball easily. They can't attack immediately after getting the ball."

"Brad, you squat under the basket, ready to help defend and make up for it at any time. Also, when you grab a rebound or serve a baseline ball, use your height to throw me forward!"

"The rest of the guys, work with Brad on the pick-and-roll, and then hit their mismatches! Use my speed, shooting, and range to defeat them!"

"Two 7-foot men? Turn them into stakes for me! Everyone, go ahead!"

Carlisle slapped his hands, and this lineup of one senior and four juniors walked onto the court side by side!
"Oh! Let's see, Carlisle started to make moves! He got a set of one big and four small! At the same time, these four outside players are really not tall! Except for Miller, who is 2 meters, all the other players are No more than 2 meters!”

When Su Qun saw the lineup that Carlisle put up, he couldn't help but start exclaiming.

"A very extreme lineup, so extreme that it's even a bit ridiculous! If this lineup can maintain its shooting percentage, I'm afraid it can break through all the defenses in the league! But on the other hand, as long as their shooting percentage drops slightly, they will Beaten by the opponent!"

"I have to say, I have some doubts now. Did Carlisle go and learn from Old Nelson for a few days? The tactics he is putting out now are more and more like a mad scientist! Crazy and extreme!"

Not only the commentator but also Kidd was shocked by Carlisle's lineup of "you and me" and "die together".

"Have you reached such a desperate moment? My 3-pointer scared you so much that you forgot to send the inside man on the field?"

"It was as shocking as if Shaq suddenly made a 3-pointer." Lin Tian chewed gum and dribbled the ball to the frontcourt. Then with a wave of his hand, Brad Miller ran to the top of the key and met Lin Tianlai. A pick-and-roll matchup.

Lin Tian immediately changed direction and threw Kidd away, speeding up the breakthrough. Dayao, who was chasing after him, was thrown away by Lin Tian. He could only watch from behind as Lin Tian rushed to the basket. Then when Gasol came to help defend, Lin Tian Tian suddenly passed the ball without looking at anyone, and the basketball immediately flew to the three-point line.

There is this year's second-round pick of the Pacers, Gilbert Arenas, who was let go by Gasol! In terms of the status, ability, and past history of the players on the court, Gasol's choice to let go of Arenas is a perfectly normal choice.

After all, even if we don't talk about anything else, just talking about shooting percentage, Arenas's 3-point shooting percentage is not even as high as Brad Miller, ranking last.

"Shh!"

With a crisp sound, Arenas scored a 3-pointer. Then the guy immediately made two pistols with his hands and said 'Bang, bang, bang! ' dubbing.

A goal, this emotional guy, can directly reach a very excited state!
"Just make gestures with your movements, don't really play with guns." Lin Tian walked past Arenas and gave very sincere and sincere advice.

Good young people, please don’t bid farewell to the top, or even bid farewell to professional basketball directly because of your dream to travel to the world with American Iai.

"Okay, boss! I hate violence and firearms the most. I am a real man when I use my fists to do things like you do!" Arenas exaggeratedly saluted Lin Tian with an American military salute, looking serious.

Lin Tian ignored him, but Lin Tian had a feeling that tonight might be Arenas' career night!

"Gilbert, as long as you get the ball, you can throw it anytime you want!"

"No problem boss!"

Next, Van Horn of the Nets missed a mid-range shot. Lin Tian rushed inside and grabbed the rebound, then turned around and started to push forward again!
Although Dayao and Gasol were blocking Lin Tian on the front line, with the tonnage of these two guys, Lin Tian had to waste a second just to get around them. When Lin Tian got around these two people, As they continue to move forward, the Nets' remaining three players' defense has almost taken shape.

However, Lin Tian didn't care about this at all. He passed a long pass to Arenas who was about to go down. After this guy took the ball, he dribbled to adjust the rhythm, and then he directly pulled it up and faced Kittles who was rushing towards him and forced a 3-pointer. Take action!
"Shh!"

There was another crisp sound, and this guy with very obvious mental knife attributes scored two goals in a row!
"Well done Gilbert!"

Lin Tian stretched out his hand and gave him another high-five: "Come on!"

"Just give me the ball and I'll shoot through their pants!" Arenas, who had scored two goals in a row, was completely excited. He was jumping up and down. It was a joy.

The continuous hits on the offensive end have brought about a significant increase in Arenas' enthusiasm on the defensive end. This guy was still jumping high. He turned around and suddenly rushed out, taking out Kidd and passing it to Kittles. basketball.

Then he dribbled the ball to the frontcourt alone, stopped suddenly, picked it up one step beyond the three-point line, and threw it again!
"Shh!"

Won three yuan in a row!

The Nets had just tied the score, but in just over 1 minute, they were pulled away again and were beaten 9:0 by the Pacers!

"Sit tight Jason! Hold still! Press down and hit a slow one!" The coach yelled loudly from the field, but did not rush to call a timeout.

In his opinion, a role player suddenly feels good, and there is no need to call a timeout to deal with him.

Especially, the Nets have Kidd! One of the most reassuring point guards in the league!

Kidd nodded, lowered the already unpleasant rhythm again, and almost came to the frontcourt with 8 seconds left. Then, while directing the movement of his teammates, he suddenly accelerated, with the help of Van Horn's cover, from Lin Tian flashed past and forced the inside line!
The Pacers' inside line was not high enough. Kidd's breakthrough immediately caused some confusion in the Pacers' inside line. Kidd saw the right moment and threw the basketball into the air.

Yao immediately jumped up under the basket, grabbed the basketball in the air, and then pushed the ball directly into the basket!
"This is definitely the most watched alley-oop dunk in NBA history!" Lin Tian couldn't help complaining: "Jason, don't you feel disgusted when passing such an alley-oop?"

"Both are 2 points! There is no difference." Kidd shook his head, looking very proud!

After all, it is really too easy for him to feed the two big men Dayao and Gasol with the ball and get assists!

At least so far this season, Kidd's assists have reached a career-high 11.8, currently only 0.3 behind Lin Tian.

Anyway, Kidd feels that he has a good chance of breaking Lin Tian's monopoly on assists this season!
Of course, Lin Tian was too lazy to compete with Kidd as the assist king. He had already dribbled the ball to the frontcourt again, and then Lin Tian suddenly dribbled the ball and moved laterally while gesturing to Arenas.

The shooter, who had completely felt the shooting, immediately ran towards Lin Tian. Then he and Lin Tian suddenly separated after a cross screen and handover at the top of the arc. The basketball had already come to Arenas's hands.

Then, without hesitation, pick it up and throw it away!

"Shh!"

There was another crisp sound, and Arenas hit his fourth consecutive 3-pointer! The score difference between the two sides reached double digits again!
"FUXX! Where did you find such a weirdo? Can you throw in so many three-pointers casually?" Kidd couldn't help but cursed. He really didn't predict that the Pacers would be in such a bad position. After a set of lineups, it was Arenas who stepped up to create this climax.

"Isn't this the simplest thing? As long as you are an NBA outside player, just throw in 3-4 three-pointers. Isn't it a matter of raising your hand, Jason?" Lin Tian gave a bad laugh and continued to beat the Kidd basket. It is a fact that he is the number one iron king today.

"Shut up!" Kidd finished scolding and suddenly changed his previous style. He made a long-distance ball. In the blink of an eye, the basketball was given to Kittles who was about to leave. After the guy got the ball, he immediately dribbled forward, and then Just after reaching the 3-point line, he suddenly stopped and turned his back to the basket.

Then when Gasol flashed past him, this guy suddenly passed the ball hand-to-hand to Gasol in the middle, so that Gasol didn't have to stay after getting the ball, but could hold it up The ball goes directly into the paint!
"Come on, little rookie! Let's see who of the two of us will lie on the ground and cry!" Miller roared, making a fierce look, spreading his hands to hold the basket, and if you dare to come over, I will knock you off. Turning over.

Today's Gasol is still a little softer in his bones. Facing Miller who suddenly rushed over, this guy suddenly stopped, and then the basketball came out.

He used a technique that was not something a center should use at all. It was an emergency stop shot that only a defender would use to deal with the opponent's inside line!

This technique is very beautiful, and his throwing hand shape is also very good.

The only problem is that a center should never play in such an obviously dodging way when facing the opponent's center!
As if to tell Gasol that this is not the right way to play, this shot with a very positive trajectory actually bounced out of the frame and was hugged by Miller. Then he turned around, saw Arenas, and decisively gave the ball to Arenas. The guy with the best touch on the team.

After Arenas got the ball, he no longer looked for Lin Tian. The guy who was completely impressed dribbled the ball all the way to the frontcourt.

Then after facing Kittles outside the 3-point line, he suddenly made two large changes of direction in front of his body, and then suddenly took a step back to withdraw from the 3-point line again. In the end, he naturally made a 3-pointer without hesitation. Take action!
"Jil, Gil, Gil, Gil!" After the ball hit, Arenas screamed with excitement. His hands once again made a machine gun look, and his mouth made a very cooperative sound, chanting his name.

This night is definitely the most exciting game Arenas has played in his career so far!

After Arenas's fifth 3-pointer, the Nets finally didn't dare to go too far. This shot was too exaggerated. They could only call a timeout to stabilize the rhythm. Otherwise, if Arenas If there's one more, the game might not come back!

"So beautiful! Gilbert Arenas! A microwave-type player who can shine on the court!" Su Qun said very excitedly: "The guard selected by the Pacers with the second overall pick in the second round this year! From the University of Arizona!”

"I think after today, there will be countless fans who will remember this passionate young man!"

Sun Zhengping followed up and said: "Arenas is a player who can be called a powerful player in college. The reason why he fell to the second round is because his shot selection is not very good and he is easy to get head-scratched and lose his mind!"

"If he can correct these problems, he might be a first-round pick."

Su Qun said: "But if he changes this, he might never be able to survive in the NBA again! Sometimes this league really lacks players who are not well-behaved and follow the rules."

"Only players who have personality, confidence, explosiveness, and unique skills can truly survive in this league for a long time!"

"A player like Arenas, who is a microwave oven and a nerve knife, is actually the type that every team needs! Every team needs such a person in their team who can stand up and use his skills when the team is in crisis. Unreasonable and continuous scoring to save the team.”

"What if they don't allow it one night?" Sun Zhengping suddenly said with a smile.

"Then we can only congratulate their opponents."

Between the two commentators' banter, the game between the two sides has begun again!
On the Nets' side, they took away Gasol, who was obviously a little weak just now, and replaced him with Lucios Harris, a striker with stronger defensive ability and faster movement, to strengthen the perimeter defense.

However, with one less insider and one more outsider, the Nets' height advantage has also been rapidly reduced.

After Dayao got the ball in the paint, he was immediately double-teamed. His passing ability and vision were not as good as Gasol's. After being double-teamed by many people, Dayao chose a very reluctant shot.

This time, the rebound was taken by Arenas. This guy, who was completely excited, waved his hand to everyone to move away from him. Without any intention of passing the ball, he dribbled the ball all the way to the frontcourt.

Then, before Harris on the opposite side could react, this guy just picked up and threw it 3 steps away from the 2-point line! Another super long 3-point shot!
"Boom!"

But this time, perhaps because of the timeout, his fiery touch has cooled down, and the basketball missed the frame.

However, Dayao under the basket failed to protect the team's rebound. He was blocked by Harrington and failed to touch the rebound. Lin Tian rushed out from the side in the blink of an eye and grabbed the offensive rebound.

But Lin Tian did not choose to attack directly by himself. Instead, he threw the ball towards the three-point line again.

"Come again! Gilbert!"

Arenas, who was outside the three-point line, took the ball without Lin Tianduo saying anything. He took aim and took another 3-pointer!
Top shooters never miss the same spot twice!
So even though Harris reacted in time this time and rushed over, completely covering Arenas's vision and shot opportunity, Arenas still decisively completed the shot!
"Shh!"

"Dudu!"

Two voices sounded in a row, and the entire Pacers team entered the carnival. A group of people rushed forward crazily and cheered around Arenas who fell on the floor.

3+1!

The 6th consecutive 3-pointer!
In the very short period of time just now, Arenas scored 18 points in a row! If the next free throw is also successful, it will be 19 points in a row!
Lin Tian's hunch was correct. This night was indeed Arenas' first career night!
At least after tonight, fans throughout China will know the Pacers' No. 0 player with extremely explosive scoring power!
Players with this style will definitely be very popular among fans no matter where they are, and they will definitely have very high popularity!

After all, this style of play is the one that can most stimulate the fans' nerves and make their adrenaline surge like crazy!
Stimulate!

"Shh!"

After a crisp sound, Arenas did not miss the free throw. He scored 19 points in a row, almost completely widening the point difference by himself!

In the next game of the third quarter, the Nets directly asked Kittles, their strongest perimeter defender, to face Arenas. In this case, Arenas, who was still in the rookie stage, immediately became It was a bit difficult, and he couldn't think of any way to get rid of Kittles' entanglement.

Although the Pacers still want to find Arenas and give him a chance, Kittles' defense is too good, and Arenas' personal ability is not at that level, so his chances in the third quarter are indeed very few. There were not many, and the few times he took shots failed to hit.

His score in this quarter was fixed at 19 points.

But even so, after such a game, it was enough for Arenas to become famous with one goal! More importantly, after Arenas's crazy outburst, the entire Pacers team also completely took control of the rhythm and the initiative of the game, maintaining a lead of more than 10 points.

And at the last moment of the fourth quarter, Dayao and Gasol's disadvantages of lack of physical strength and inability to fight were further amplified. It was obvious that neither of them could beat them!
It stands to reason that at this time it is time for the team boss to step up and score to save the team.

But the boss of the Nets is probably the guy in the league who is the least good at scoring and using his points to save the team.

With Kidd's last few shots failing, the Nets had no choice but to replace all their main players and admit defeat with 2 minutes left in the game.

108: 94!

As the buzzer sounded at the end of the game, the Pacers relied on Arenas's explosion in the third quarter to establish victory in one fell swoop, winning this New Year's game with a 14-point advantage!

全场比赛，林天拿下27分15次助攻12篮板2抢断的豪华型3双数据，阿里纳斯靠着第三节的19分全场拿下24分2篮板1助攻，卡特拿下22分5篮板3助攻，大本则供献5分15篮板4盖帽！

Three people scored 3 points, defeating their opponents with their strong firepower, a standard Pacers victory.

篮网队那边，基德拿下11分10篮板12助攻的经济适用型三双，大姚因为被大本克制表现平平，14投只有5中，靠着7罚6中的罚球拿下了16分7篮板2盖帽。

Gasol performed well, scoring a team-high 21 points, 12 rebounds and 5 assists. Van Horn also scored 18 points!
"This game is a wonderful one! The Nets' inside height and the Pacers' outside firepower were all vividly displayed. Both sides played their own advantages!" Su Qun concluded after the game: "Only But Arenas’ explosion in the third quarter was too sudden and too violent.”

"Otherwise, today's game will definitely be more anxious and tense!"

Sun Zhengping said: "But what is certain is that these two teams are of top quality. They are both first-class teams in the Eastern Conference. They will definitely make great achievements in the playoffs!"

"At the same time, I believe everyone is also very satisfied with the performance of Dayao and Lin Tian, ​​two of our own people from China!"

Su Qun followed: "Then, I want to give you a preview in advance! At 8:30 the day after tomorrow, which is the morning of the second day of the Lunar New Year, we will broadcast another Chinese Derby for you: the Dallas Mavericks away game. Challenge the New Jersey Nets! ”

"Roughly, these two inside players, Dayao and Dayao, are likely to have a lot of matchups in the next game! I think this will also be the biggest highlight of the next game! See you there the day after tomorrow morning. Disperse!”

Sun Zhengping said: "Then today's live broadcast ends here. Finally, we will conduct our lottery today and randomly select five lucky viewers to give away NBA basketball gift bags! I will call start, and Teacher Su will call stop."

"Okay, let's start!" Su Qun answered immediately.

"Stop! Very good, then our congratulations, the mobile phone number is"

Winning the Nets away from home made the Pacers' second position in the Eastern Conference more stable. Their lead over the Nets has reached 2 games! Of course, they are still 3 games behind the Magic!
It is in a relatively safe and stable state for the time being.

Afterwards, the Pacers returned to Indiana to rest for a day, and then defeated the Grizzlies, a weak team that had just moved to Memphis to challenge, and continued to stabilize their ranking in the Eastern Conference.

On the same day, the most watched game in China was the Mavericks VS Nets!

Everything was so similar to the situation two days ago. Almost all fans gathered at home, waiting for the China Insider Derby that they had waited for a long time!
In a sense, this game is even more eye-catching than the one on New Year’s Eve!

Because after all, Lin Tian and Dayao can't compete.

But they play roughly the same position as Dayao. Although the two have completely different styles of play, the Nets play a vague twin tower at the 4-5 position, while the Mavericks play a double four without the 5th position. Position play.

The starting lineup is Nowitzki + Juwan Howard!
As for the rotation stage, whether it is a double-fort lineup of roughly + Nowitzki or roughly + Howard, they appear a lot of time, so the probability of Dayao and roughly matching up is still very high!
After much anticipation, there is another good news from the Alliance!
Juwan Howard will miss tonight's game due to physical discomfort.

In the starting list given before the game, 'Mad Scientist' Nelson will be roughly placed in the starting position!

Roughly, Dirk Nowitzki, Michael Finley, Adrian Griffin and Steve Nash make up the Mavericks' starting lineup!
The Nets are still the five-man team of Yao, Gasol, Van Horn, Kittles, and Kidd.

These two lineups from both sides look very interesting!

The Mavericks have two big men who float around and rely on shooting. Although the Nets can pass and shoot, they are essentially the traditional back-to-the-basket type.

Finley of the Mavericks is the standard American black forward: short, strong and fierce, with great physical fitness!
Van Horn, on the other hand, has the advantages and disadvantages of all white forwards: accurate shooting, big size, good awareness, but soft style, poor strength, and poor defense.

The other two No. 1 positions are like the polar opposites of ice and fire: Kidd is fierce defensively, tall, strong, and has top organizational skills, but he can't score.

Nash shoots accurately and can fire in the entire half. He is fast, flexible and quick, but his defense is not worth mentioning.

Well, it’s the legendary base that doesn’t attack and doesn’t defend, so it’s a match!

At the same time, there are a total of 2 yellow, 4 black and 4 white starting players among the two teams!
These two teams are also a standard fusion of people from all over the world, with all types, colors and races!
All kinds of elements are really full!

In every sense of the word, this match is worth watching!
In the first few rounds of the game, the Chinese fans were extremely excited.

Dayao succeeded easily in the low post shot, and when he turned around, he held the ball in a high position and just pulled it up from outside the 3-point line and threw it!
Then Dayao retaliated by hitting a shot from the mid-range, and basically used his signature face-to-face technique to break through the basket, turn around and score 2 points to help the team continue to cling to the score!
Then Kidd broke through Nash and went to the basket to give Dayao an alley-oop. Looking back, Nash was not to be outdone. After the pick-and-roll, he gave a rough assist in the mid-range and he scored 2 more points!
In the first 2 minutes, two Chinese players faced off and scored consecutively! All the Chinese fans watching were shouting with excitement!
On this second day of the Lunar New Year, I either don’t go back to my parents’ house, or I go out and go to my parents’ house at 6 o’clock in the morning. What’s the purpose?
That’s what it’s for!
"The coaches on both sides are very knowledgeable! They know very well what we want to watch and how to make the program effective!" Su Qun was also excited by the matchup between the two Chinese players.

Sun Zhengping was also very happy and said: "That's right, we let two Chinese players attack at the beginning! Shou and Dayao didn't let us down at all. They hit and scored consecutively in the beginning! It's wonderful, it's really wonderful!"

It's just that the exciting moment of this game for Chinese fans only lasted a while.

In the final analysis, Yao Yao is not the number one choice for his respective team.

After that, the game became a battle between two top point guards, Kidd and Nash. Both guys had very good performances and statistics tonight!
The suspense of this game was maintained until the last moment of the game!
In the last minute, the score between the two sides was 1:100, with the Nets temporarily leading by 102 points.

Then first Nash showed his big heart and made a pull-up jump shot from outside the 3-point line to go ahead by 1 point. Then Kidd finally took on the responsibility of the leader. After getting into the paint, he forced a 2-point attack to the basket and took the lead again!

After that, Nowitzki's shot was interfered by Gasol, and Dayao's turnaround jumper also bounced out of the frame.

In the last 10 seconds, with Nowitzki and Nash being heavily guarded, the basketball was in his hands and he fired a cannon from outside the three-point line! It's a pity that this life-saving goal that could save the team failed to hit, and probably missed the first game-winner of his career!

After the basketball bounced out of the frame, Dayao grabbed the rebound, and Finley immediately stepped forward to foul.

Dayao, who stepped to the free throw line, withstood the pressure and easily made 2 free throws, bringing the team's lead to 3 points!
In the last round, Finley's 3-pointer missed the frame again. The Mavericks unfortunately lost and suffered their first defeat in this Eastern Conference!
In the whole game, Nash scored a huge double-double with 33 points and 15 assists, while Kidd posted a triple-double for the second consecutive game! And his shooting touch was particularly good tonight, so his triple-double is no longer affordable.

30 points, 11 rebounds and 14 assists!

A proper luxury three-bedroom triple-double.

In addition to the two point guards who shined throughout the game, Nowitzki scored a team-high 39 points and 9 rebounds. Finley was in poor condition, making only 12 of 3 shots and scoring only 9 points.

Kittles on the Nets successfully restricted Finley and contributed greatly to the team's victory, but his offensive performance was also somewhat poor, scoring only 10 points on 3 of 11 shots.

Gasol performed quite well, scoring 17 points and 8 rebounds on 20 of 11 shots. Van Horn had an explosion tonight. He scored a season-high 29 points from inside and outside shots. He was second only to Kidd in scoring on the team. player of!
As for the two Chinese players that Chinese fans are most concerned about.

大姚15投8中拿下20分8篮板2盖帽，大致14投6中拿下15分5篮板1助攻！

The most exciting period of scoring between the two came from the opening stage of the first quarter. During that period, Dayao scored 6 points, roughly 7 points!
This two-minute confrontation will definitely go down in history, and it will be recalled and appreciated again and again in every Chinese derby.

After the game, the coaches of both sides were asked a lot of questions about Dayao and general at the press conference.

After all, these two are both All-Star starters, and they are both Chinese! Today's NBA is not like when Lin Tian was just starting out a few years ago. The United States could not even get together five Chinese reporters to cover the NBA.

The number of Chinese reporters and team reporters covering the NBA in the United States has probably increased by at least 10 times!
The content, method, scale of cooperation between the two parties and the profits they bring to each other are all completely different!

Without even realizing it, the NBA has become the overseas professional league in China with the highest ratings and attention besides the five major leagues!
Therefore, after such a China derby, both sides will naturally encounter countless problems related to the two players!

In addition, from the answers that Nelson and Byron Scott gave to the questions, we can also see that they have completely different styles!

Reporter: "Do you think Dayao is generally qualified to enter the All-Star starting lineup? Their abilities are not better than others. Do they deserve this honor?"

Old Nelson: "If someone votes, he or she deserves to be a starter. If no one votes, he or she doesn't deserve to be a starter! I don't know what is there to discuss about this crap. If you don't understand, you can mobilize your family to vote for your grandma. Then make her an All-Star starter!"

Scott: "This is something to be happy about, this is an honor, and it will also bring a lot of pressure. I hope the players can withstand the pressure, and then I will wish them all the best. I believe everything is going. If things develop in a good direction, I believe the league will become even better!”

Reporter: "Some people say that the two of them were selected just because they have the advantage of having a large number of Chinese people. If they were not Chinese, they would not be able to get so many votes!"

Old Nelson: "Is it illegal to have too many people? Is it your tax money to eat when you have too many people? Then except for those international players, are the other American players selected because there are so many Americans? If the United States only has a population of 200 million, then that's Aren’t we going to stop holding all-star games in the future?”

Scott: "Well, maybe there is an advantage in this regard, maybe not, but as for the specifics, I think we still have to take a look. The current situation may not be bad. Of course, I don't mean it is definitely good, but if you Ask me if I support Dayao being selected as an All-Star, then I definitely support it.”

Reporter: "So what do you think of those who question Dayao and his general selection as an All-Star? What would you say to him?"

Old Nelson: "If you have the guts, go to Lin and tell him. Let's see if he beats you until your face is covered in blood. As for what do I think? I want to drink London Mike's, which is the worst tasting drink in the world and has expired for 5 years." Brand black beer mixed with my urine and poured into those people's mouths to warn them to be themselves and not to complain."

Scott.
Reporter: Forget it, stop talking. It’s all nonsense. We can’t even send out a press release with such a watery statement.

In short, the two coaches used their own methods to express their support for their players, expressed their 100% trust and encouragement to them, and expected them to perform well in the All-Star Game.

Of course, reporters couldn't just ask these coaches the same question. Before the game against the Mavericks on the fourth day of the Lunar New Year, reporters interviewed Lin Tian and asked him what he thought of the two coaches' statements.

Lin Tian: "What Nelson said is so damn right! I like what he said. If there is anything in Nelson's words that I am not satisfied with, it is the part about drinking dark beer. I suggest adding some more Vinegar, chili, mustard, soy sauce and expired canned herring.”

"Then let those bastards drink it. If they dare not drink it, then meet me on the court and let's compete to see who is worthy of being the All-Star starter!"

After Lin Tian and Nelson, the young and old combination, complained to the media, at least in the short term, there will not be too many voices in the league to discuss the selection of Yao and Yao.

After all, the status of these two people is here. One is the number one active player who is difficult to beat, and the other is the oldest top coach in the league.

What's more important is that the bottom line of these two people is lower than the other. Lin Tian knows how to beat people. Old Nelson, sometimes you would rather he beat you. This old man has many tricks!
However, although Lin Tian and Nelson have reached an agreement, the game still needs to be played.

The Pacers need to win another game, come to the All-Star Game with better results, status, etc., and then start to accelerate into playoff mode after the All-Star Game.

The gap between the Mavericks and the Lakers is actually only two games. They are eager to overtake the Lakers and occupy the home court advantage in the playoffs.

In short, this game is not only the last battle before the All-Star Game for both sides, but also a good time for them to draw a perfect end to the first half of the season.

In this game, neither side will let it go!
For example, with the Pacers, Webber, who had been absent for a long time, announced his return from injury before the game. He wanted to have a good fight with Nowitzki!
As for the Mavericks, Finley, who performed poorly in the last game, also threatened that he is still the leader of this team. He will fulfill his responsibilities as a leader, restore himself to form as soon as possible, and lead the team forward!

In addition, just before the start of the game between the two teams, the league also announced the specific list of 7 All-Star substitutes in the East and West, as well as the rookie game and individual competitions!
In terms of substitute players, the Eastern team has Ben from the Pacers, Duncan from the Magic, Kidd from the Nets, Ray Allen from the Bucks, Mourning from the Heat, Davis and Celtic from the Hornets. 7 people from Pierce were selected together!
On the Western side, there are Garnett and Szczerbiak of the Timberwolves, Peja and Divac of the Kings, Nash of the Mavericks, Brand of the Clippers and Rasheed Wallace of the Trail Blazers 7 People are selected side by side!
In terms of the number of people selected, the Pacers have had 4 people selected for many years. This year, due to injuries and age, neither Webb nor Miller was selected. Therefore, although Ben made it to the All-Star for the first time in his career, , but the Pacers still only had 3 people selected.

In addition, the Magic and Nets each have two players selected to the All-Stars, and the remaining five are from five completely different teams. In this way, there are a total of 8 teams in the Eastern Conference with players selected to the All-Stars, which means more than half All teams have All-Star production!
This definitely coincides with the league's intention to create an average team where each team has a representative and a star player.

In the West, only the Mavericks have three All-Stars selected. The rest of the Timberwolves, Lakers, and Kings all have two All-Stars. They have 7 teams with people selected to the All-Stars. Although it is slightly less than the Eastern Conference, it is enough for Stern. So relieved!

In addition, the lists for the dunk contest, three-point contest and rookie game have also been released.

Lin Tian and Carter both refused to participate in the dunk contest again, which disappointed Stern for a while, but the good news is that the new North Carolina Flyer Jason Richardson agreed to participate! This guy is also a historical level jumper. With him participating, even if the slam dunk contest cannot return to the top, it can still regain some reputation.

In addition, Miller participated in the three-point contest again. In his words, he just wanted to have fun with his brothers. It didn't matter whether he won the championship or not.

Then there are the two younger brothers Arenas and Parker, who were also selected for the rookie game together. As for how many opportunities and time they will get, it is hard to say.

In short, after the All-Star Game roster is officially settled, the Mavericks and Pacers, the two biggest winners of the All-Star Game, will face off head-to-head!
The announcement of the All-Star voting results can be regarded as adding an extra piece of firewood to the competition between these two teams!
