Standing pretty old

Chapter 580 Abnormal

Paul took the ball up the frontcourt and sent it to Duncan, who immediately passed it to Kobe in the corner.

After Kobe flew the defender, he took the ball into the penalty area, attracted Ruan Erniu's supplementary defense, and passed the ball in the air.

After O'Neal received the basketball, he immediately completed the offense with a dunk.

Garnett immediately sent the baseline ball, trying to chase him down quickly.

Iverson didn't hesitate after receiving the ball, and sent the ball directly to the frontcourt, and James, who was running at the front, received the ball.

James assaulted the basket, and Stoudemire failed to stop James, but Duncan, who slashed out from the side, gave a big cap.

The offensive and defensive transition, the East did not wait for O'Neal to be in position, Kobe held the ball in the frontcourt, and after one step past Iverson who was supplementing the defense, he suddenly pulled back at a distance of 20 feet and hit again!

Immediately afterwards, Kobe entered the penalty area with the ball on the offensive end. Facing Garnett's defense, he completed a difficult throw, helping the Western Conference All-Star team to open the score in an instant.

In the second half of the game, the Western Conference All-Stars led by Kobe took the lead. At 89:80, the two teams entered the first official timeout of the second half.

Ruan Erniu was the last one to go to the players' bench. He walked to the sidelines and gave Woodson a look.

The camera failed to record Ruan Erniu's eyes, but recorded Woodson's unfurled brows.

Some things, after all, need people to make up their minds!

After the timeout ended, the All-Stars of the two sides began to deploy their own troops. The Western side was following the normal rotation procedure, with one or two rotations, but the Eastern side was going up and down.

That's right, the Eastern Conference has finally offered the long-awaited Eagles four-man lineup, and LeBron James is still retained at the third position.

"So I just need to wait for the phone call on the outside?" James, who was the last to get up on the bench, said to Er Niu.

LeBron James is a smart guy, and in fact, he's kind of a talker.

This is not Er Niu slandering him. The head coach of Dream Eight, Old K, said, "LeBron is very smart, but he is the one who talks the most in the team. He always chatters about tactics or ideas, but every time he understands the tactics the fastest. He is also spiritual."

In Er Niu's view, James is the kind of old mother-style leader who likes to use chattering words to influence his teammates.

Some people always say that James does not have Jordan's dominance. In Erniu's view, this is because they are not the same kind of people in character.

"No, after the ball is in your hands, what are you doing!" Ruan Erniu joked.

The much-anticipated highlight appeared. After the Pistons, another team with four players on the same team appeared on the stage of the All-Star Game.

The camera specially gave a close-up of the sneakers of the Big Four of the Eagles. Each of them wrote the number "15" on the sneakers. This is the number of John Salmons. The Pistons also did the same. Sean Prince's number is written on the sneakers.

Eastern offensive.

Ruan Erniu was about to reach his position in the low post, and Bibby passed the ball to Erniu in time.

Both O'Neal and Duncan are resting off the court at the moment, and Pau Gasol is responsible for defending him.

Jiasao's strength is obviously inferior to that of Er Niu. After Ruan Er Niu leaned away from the opponent with his body, he ended the battle with a small hook at the basket.

This is not the offensive method that should be used in the All-Star Game at all, but when the Big Four of the Hawks are all on the court, Ruan Erniu's scoring method does not seem to be inconsistent at all.

Billups held the ball for half court, and after he chiseled twice with his back against Bibby, he immediately gave the ball to Kobe.

Kobe broke through with the ball, but immediately encountered zone defense.

At the same time, they were surrounded by Er Niu, Yue Eclipse, and Jiong Jisen.

Phoenix fans were taken aback, what's going on, this is the All-Star Game!
Barkley on the sidelines was also dissatisfied: "This is an All-Star. The four of the Hawks are much more talented than the four of the Pistons. Now they need to bring performances to the audience instead of carrying bags to work."

When the camera was shown to Woodson, Egghead also covered his face. This was not his intention, it was purely the awareness of zone defense formed spontaneously by the Hawks players during the long-term training.

Woodson didn't know whether to praise or criticize, because this defensive awareness was implanted in the minds of the Eagles, and it was also the cornerstone of the Eagles' team.

James, who was on the court, also felt the overall defensive strength of the Hawks from his own perspective for the first time.

Kobe obviously didn't react and made a mistake!

囧囧sen picked up the basketball and quickly pushed Ruan Erniu and Lunar Eclipse with both wings. While pulling the defender, he was also ready for the air cut.

"Whoosh!"

囧囧sen sent the lob pass, Ruan Erniu jumped high, faced Gasol's defense to complete the dunk, and directly knocked the Spaniard out of the baseline.

The Eagles'... no, the East's All-Star offensive and defensive transition is here!
Well, it's really not that different.

The Big Four of the Eagles also knew that if they continued to defend the zone, it would lower the ratings and cause public outrage, so in the next round, they immediately returned to the man-marking mode.

After all, their athletic talent is still far superior to the Pistons, so there is no need to play too rigidly.

Even so, the defensive pressure given to Kobe by Jon Jonson is obviously better than that of D. Wade. This is a clear signal that the East, at least the Eagles, want to win.

Kobe forced his shot against Jon Jonson, "Bang!", missed!

Ruan Erniu took the backcourt rebound and passed the ball to Bibby. Bibby held the ball for half court and sent the ball to Jon Jonson, who subconsciously handed the ball to James...

James, who was in the system, was not greedy for merit, but distributed the ball to the eclipse, and the eclipse shot at 45 degrees on the left.

"boom!"

Also missed!

But Er Niu squeezed away the defense of Gasol and Nowitzki. In the gap between the two double-teams, they hit the basketball and successfully made a tip-up.

"beep!"

Phil Jackson, who doesn't like timeouts, took the rare initiative to ask for a timeout.

This also made Barkley dissatisfied: "What's all this? Is this really the All-Star Game? Or is it the regular season of the Lakers VS Eagles? Phil wants the audience to watch the cheerleaders dance for a while longer?"

What's interesting is that after the All-Star Game, the Eagles and the Lakers faced each other in their first regular season game.

The Lakers will sit at the Staples Center to usher in the challenge of the Atlanta Hawks, which is destined to become a battle of revenge.

Before the All-Star Game, no one would have thought that the owners of the two teams would turn the All-Star Game into a preview of the battle of revenge in advance.

However, it is hard to say whether the fans in front of the TV will be satisfied. Anyway, at least the two teams did not appear dull on the scene.

Phil Jackson rarely arranged defensive tactics, and he especially asked Nowitzki to be ready to double-team Ruan Erniu with Gasol at any time, even if he left Josh Smith to a certain extent for this.

Shaq O'Neal sitting on the bench should be the most depressed one. What about the last All-Star Game performance?What about the "Show All the Past" that was said?

The plan couldn't keep up with the changes, and now the two All-Stars in the East and West are angry. Even Phil Jackson dare not take the risk of letting O'Neal play again.

The league's plan A went bankrupt, so what about plan B?
Hit it down!

AMVP should be won by a veritable star of the stars.
