king of defenders

Chapter 1426 Victory, Uncrowned King

The strategy of double-teaming Meng Yun failed, and the James team is still 13 points behind, and there are only 4 minutes left in the game, which is even more unfavorable for them.

The James team made a substitution and replaced Durant.

Several people exchanged glances and nodded to each other. The next step is to fight for three points. It is difficult to catch up with two points and two points, because the Meng Yun team can also score, only by three-pointers, as long as one three-pointer is scored Even if the Mengyun team scores a goal, as long as it is not a three-pointer, the James team will earn a point and the point difference will be reduced by one point.

If the James team makes a three-pointer and the Meng Yun team fails to return the color, then the point difference will be reduced by three points, two or three more, and the situation will completely change.

Of course, the Meng Yun team is not stupid, they can definitely think of this, and they will definitely respond accordingly, focusing on limiting James' three-pointers, so this is a "fight".

The Meng Yun team also made a substitution immediately, replacing Embiid with Brother Antetokounmpo.

Today, Brother Antetokounmpo is the player with the most points on the Meng Yun team. So far he has scored 31 points, in addition to 6 rebounds and 3 assists. If the Meng Yun team wins, he will probably be elected as the mvp.

In addition, Butler was replaced with a small card.

Xiaoka also played very well today. He scored 22 points quietly and made 8 of 6 three-pointers. The shooting rate is very high.

Antetokounmpo and Xiaoka played very well today. At this critical moment, the coach sent them all up, just not wanting to give the James team any chance to comeback.

Team James attacks.

Seeing the James team approaching, Meng Yun and the others quickly stepped forward, expanding the defense line greatly, focusing on defending the opponent's three-pointers and not giving the opponent an easy three-point shot.

James looked serious, asked for a pick-and-roll, passed the ball back to Davis, Davis made a shot fake, then broke through, split the ball again, and passed it to Durant.

Durant catches the ball and makes a three-pointer.

Swish!
The goal was scored, and the score was 10 points.

The more critical the moment is, Durant will be more accurate. He and James are the best players on the James team today, and they are also the players who scored the most points on the James team. They have already scored 35 points, which is more than Antetokounmpo.

The Meng Yun team counterattacked. Meng Yun held the ball and advanced to the frontcourt. He was not in a hurry to attack. Now time is not good for the James team, but it is good for them. Let's spend a little time first.

Meng Yun did not act until more than ten seconds had elapsed from the attack time. It was also a breakthrough, and then passed the ball to Xiang Long. , an inside pass to Antetokounmpo.

Bang!
Antetokounmpo made a flat frame dunk, with a point difference of 12 points.

After that, the James team was looking for opportunities to shoot three-pointers, but Meng Yun's team focused on defending three-pointers, and the shooting opportunities were not very good. Except for Durant and Irving each scoring one, Davis, Jockey Qi failed to make a shot, and his shooting percentage was only 50.00%.

The score between the two sides narrowed a bit and became 9 points.

However, at this time, there are only 2 minutes left in the game.

"It's over."

"Not enough time."

The fans cried out, sighing for Team James.

The James team really doesn't have enough time. Their three-point shooting is actually not bad. 50.00% shooting is already very good, but it is obviously not enough for their current situation.

At this moment, James suddenly made a step-back three-pointer, and the basketball made a hollow hit, narrowing the point difference to 6 points, but soon the Meng Yun team also scored, Meng Yun, Xiang Long, and Antetokounmpo After passing the ball continuously, it was finally given to Xiaoka, and Xiaoka hit a three-pointer again.

He made 9 of 7 three-pointers from the field, and Xiaoka made a perfect three-pointer today.

This ball almost killed the game, and the point difference returned to 9 points, and there was only a little more than 1 minute left in the game, and the two sides each had two offensive opportunities. Even if the James team scored all of them, the score could not catch up. up.

In the last minute or so, Antetokounmpo also hit a three-pointer, his personal score reached 36 points, and the game ended.

With a score of 141:132, the Meng Yun team won.

"Team James still lost."

"After all, I couldn't catch up. I fell behind too much in the first half, and the point difference once approached 20 points. If it wasn't for falling too far in the first half, the James team might not have lost."

"The James team obviously took it lightly in the first half, but it's useless to regret it."

In the auditorium, the fans sighed.

This game was played better than everyone expected. Both sides played very seriously. It didn't look like an All-Star game, and in the end it was even comparable to the playoffs.

For the fans, today's game is fully worth the ticket price.

The game is over.

James and Meng Yun embraced. He didn't feel unwilling to lose to the Meng Yun team. The Meng Yun team did play more seriously today, and at least half of the reason why he lost was due to his own reasons, because he was careless in the first half. The opponent was serious, but they didn't take the game seriously, and the loss was not wronged.

There was just one question that made James wonder. He asked, "Meng Yun, you were already prepared when selecting players, right? But I'm a little curious, how did you manage to get so many All-Star players, Even Giannis, Leonard, Westbrook and others listen to your arrangements?"

In fact, from the beginning of the game, James knew that Meng Yun's team was going to play seriously, and reminded his teammates. However, the teammates didn't take it seriously. Instead, it was Meng Yun's side, and the teammates seemed to listen to Meng Yun's arrangements.

It's not difficult to guess, if it wasn't for Meng Yun's arrangement, how could these players of the Meng Yun team play so seriously?It's not like Xiang Long was selected for the first time as an All-Star. It's not like they didn't know what the previous All-Star games were like. They had never seen them play so seriously before.

Meng Yun chuckled and asked instead, "LeBron, why do you think I chose them?"

James was stunned for a moment, and then he understood: "I see, you chose them because they are all people who are willing to play seriously in the All-Star Game. As long as there is a person with enough weight to take the lead, they will play seriously, because It’s just playing in their true colors, and it’s even simpler than letting them play exhibition games.”

Wanting to understand this, James couldn't help but sigh with emotion, this boy Meng Yun is really a set of calculations, and he can be considered amazing.

At this time, the All-Star MVP trophy will be awarded.

In the end, Antetokounmpo won the All-Star Game mvp with his outstanding performance of 36 points, 7 rebounds and 3 assists.

However, in many people's minds, Meng Yun is the "uncrowned king" of this All-Star Game. Meng Yun didn't score many points, only 15 points, but he contributed 16 assists, more assists than points, and 4 more Rebounds, 2 steals, and everyone understands that the key to Meng Yun's victory is not Antetokounmpo, but Meng Yun.
