Zheng Zhebin's official height is only 1.76 meters, and Xiao Yao's actual height may be a little shorter, and he is 36 years old. Xiao Yao didn't want to deliberately release water when jumping the ball, and he was embarrassed to bully the "old man", so he didn't go up to jump the ball.

Zhao Tingxiao's height is not very high, less than 1.8 meters, but he is only 26 years old, much younger than Zheng Zhebin. He also didn't plan to release water when jumping the ball, and he wasn't embarrassed to bully the senior on the other side, so he tried his best when jumping the ball.

When the basketball had not yet reached the highest point in the air, Zhao Tingxiao's hand had already touched the basketball and turned the ball back to his own half behind him.

Xiao Yao played point guard, and the position he stood in the opening was directly behind Zhao Tingxiao. There are also teammates standing near the halfway line in front of you on either side. Seeing that Zhao Tingxiao was fighting for the ball, the two Northern Celebrity Team players near the middle line on both sides quickly ran towards the opponent's half without waiting for Zhao Tingxiao to land and Xiao Yao behind him to receive the ball.

Xiao Yao, who was standing behind Zhao Tingxiao, received the basketball, quickly turned his head to look at the referee who was retreating from the middle circle to the sideline, and saw that he didn't seem to have the intention of blowing the ball violation, so he immediately raised his hand and passed the ball out.

A member of the Northern Celebrity Team who received the ball in front received Xiao Yao's pass and immediately rushed to the opponent's inside line with the ball. However, after the Southern Celebrity Team lost the jump ball, several team members also defended quickly, and the Northern Celebrity Team players who were killing the inside with the ball were intercepted in the middle of the way, and they could only pass the ball back to Xiao Yao who ran to the top of the arc outside the three-point line to respond.

Due to the direct launch of the fast attack by the Northern Celebrities at the beginning, the defensive position of the Southern Celebrities is not very good, and most of the players are now on the inside line. When Xiao Yao at the top of the three-point arc received the ball, there was no defender in front of him, and he had a better shooting gap.

After Xiao Yao received the basketball, he immediately raised his hands and made a gesture to shoot. The two closest Southern Celebrity players immediately pounced with their arms raised.

Although from the distance, neither of these two seemed to be able to interfere with Xiao Yao's shooting, Xiao Yao did not shoot, but passed the basketball to a teammate near the three-second zone.

The Southern Celebrity player in front of the Northern Celebrity Team player had just pounced to make up for Xiao Yao, and it happened to be an unguarded vacancy at this time. After receiving the ball, the Northern Celebrity team player took a decisive shot from the mid-range position. However, it is a little pity that the basketball smashed on the hoop and bounced out, and the first shot of the Northern Celebrities failed to score.

This time, the Masters Tournament was arranged with live commentary. The commentary partners who served as the commentators for this game were He Jian and Zhou Qun. Both of them have served as commentators for basketball games on CCTV and basketball games broadcast by Haiyan Video. Both CCTV and Haiyan broadcast this competition, but they used their on-site commentary.

"Ding Maohui shot from a middle distance! It's a pity that he didn't hit!" After the Northern Celebrity Team missed the shot, He Jian, who was wearing headphones and headsets on the commentary seat, said with some regret.

"In fact, Xiao Yao can shoot when he catches the ball. Zhou Qun then commented, "At that time, there were no opposing defenders in front of him, and the two Southern Celebrity players who supplemented the defense were slow, so it shouldn't affect his shot." In basketball, it is not said that the closer you are to the basket, the more accurate the shot, we know that Xiao Yao has the ability to shoot three points. If Xiao Yao had made his own shot just now, it would not necessarily be worse than Ding Maohui's chances, but he still passed the ball to Ding Maohui inside. ”

"Could it be that Xiao Yao still wants to learn from that year's charity game, first assist a lap of teammates, and then score by himself in the second half?" He Jian said with a smile.

Both of them commented on the charity star game that year, and they were very impressed by Xiao Yao.

On the court, players from the Southern Celebrity and Northern Celebrity Team knocked the basketball out of bounds as they grabbed a rebound under the basket. The referee awarded the ball to the Southern Celebrities, and the Northern Celebrities all turned and ran to their own half.

"I'm sorry!" In the process of retreating, the teammate Ding Maohui who missed the shot said to Xiao Yao.

"It's okay!" Xiao Yao smiled and shook his head.

"But you could have shot three points yourself just now, why do you want to pass it to me?" Ding Maohui said to Xiao Yao.

"Aren't you closer to the basket?" Xiao Yao smiled, "Why don't you like me to pass the ball to you, then I won't pass it to you in the future!"

"Don't!" Ding Maohui immediately said, "I just said that you don't patronize others, and you can also shoot yourself when you have the opportunity, but I didn't say that you should not pass the ball to me!"

The sideline ball must be passed through the referee's hands. The Northern Celebrities have retreated, and the Southern Celebrities, who serve the sideline ball, have no chance to break quickly, so they slowly dribble and advance to the frontcourt.

It was the captain Jung Cheol-bin of the Southern Celebrities who was holding the ball and advancing it. Although Zheng Zhebin's height is not high, he has been a basketball fan since he was a child, and his skills are still very good, and his speed is okay. After dribbling to the top of the arc, Zheng Zhebin made a feint to deceive the center of gravity of the defender in front of him, and the dribble changed direction and burst into the inside.

Xiao Yao, who was defending under the basket, immediately stepped forward and blocked Zheng Zhebin's forward route. Zheng Zhebin, who broke into the inner line, slowed down slightly, and then suddenly accelerated, trying to break through Xiao Yao's defense with a change of pace.

Xiao Yao raised his arms and followed Zheng Zhebin's footsteps closely. Zheng Zhebin couldn't break through Xiao Yao's defense, so he stuck to Xiao Yao and forced a layup. When Zheng Zhebin jumped up and shot at the last step, Xiao Yao did not jump to defend, but the raised arm still caused a lot of interference to Zheng Zhebin. Jung's layup was eventually changed to a throw-like shot, and he didn't score on the shot.

Jung missed a layup, and the Southern Celebrities also failed to score. He Jian said in the commentary seat.

"Xiao Yao is well defended. Zhou Qun commented, "With Xiao Yao's height, Zheng Zhebin really can't take advantage of it head-on." ”

"Xiao Yao, what is this for?" Unlike the two commentators on the commentary bench, Yi Yang, the coach of the Northern Celebrity Team on the bench, was a little dissatisfied and puzzled by Xiao Yao's performance.

"What's the matter, coach, didn't Xiao Yao take down this ball?" asked Fang Qing, who was sitting next to Yi Yang.

"Zheng Zhebin has no advantage over Xiao Yao at all, Xiao Yao is not out of position, and it is an accident that the ball can be scored. Yi Yang said, "But when Xiao Yao was defending against Zheng Zhebin, he neither disrupted the opponent's rhythm with his upper body when he dribbled and broke through, nor did he jump when he was defending at the end. You also went to yesterday's training, you should know that Xiao Yao doesn't have that ability! If he jumps up to defend, Zheng Zhebin's layup may not be unable to shoot, but may be directly covered by Xiao Yao. Even if we don't get the ball in the end, giving the opponent a big hat at the beginning has a huge impact on morale. ”

"It seems like this!" Fang Qing thought about Xiao Yao's performance during training yesterday, nodded, and guessed again, "Maybe he is taking care of the other party's face?"

"When he played the Masters in the United States, he even covered other people's children, and now he is playing the Masters in Huaxia, will he take care of the opponent's face?" Yi Yang looked at Fang Qingdao.

"Who knows?" Fang Qing said, "American celebrities still have relatively little intersection with us. Zheng Zhebin is a Chinese star, and he is in the entertainment industry, maybe when will he meet it in the future?"

"Maybe!" Yi Yang shook his head, "I don't really understand your showbiz affairs. ”

Jung missed a shot, and the rebound was picked up by the former professional player on the Southern Celebrity Team, who also played as a defensive insider. The former professional player saw that the Southern Celebrity Team quickly retreated and seemed to have no chance to break quickly, so he handed the basketball to Xiao Yao next to him, and ran to the opponent's half of the court at medium speed.

After Xiao Yao received the basketball, he also dribbled the ball to the opponent's half court unhurriedly.

After coming to the top of the opponent's three-point arc, Xiao Yao stopped and observed the situation on the court while dribbling. The point guard of the Southern Celebrity Team is Zheng Zhebin, who happens to defend Xiao Yao in the opposite position. Seeing Xiao Yao looking around, he didn't seem to pay much attention to himself, Zheng Zhebin, who was focusing on defending Xiao Yao, suddenly reached out and copied the basketball that Xiao Yao was driving.

Xiao Yao turned around with a dribble, dodged Zheng Zhebin's broken ball, and at the same time passed Zheng Zhebin, who pounced forward, and dribbled the ball to the inside. Xiao Yao didn't dribble to the basket very quickly, and an inside Southern Celebrity player immediately made up for it.

As soon as the Southern Celebrity Team player on the inside moved, Xiao Yao followed the action of slapping the ball while dribbling, slapped the basketball hard, and sent the basketball to the basket with a ground-hitting pass. The basketball passed by the feet of the Southern Celebrities' interior defenders and fell into the hands of the Northern Celebrities interior players who were supposed to be defending. The interior player who received the ball from the Northern Celebrities was unguarded, easily jumped under the basket and shot, sent the basketball into the basket, and scored two points steadily.

"Good ball!" He Jian in the commentary seat praised, and the audience also let out a burst of cheers.

"I'm sorry, my!" Zheng Zhebin said when he saw the Northern Celebrity Team score, lowered his head and took the initiative to raise his hand to his teammates.

This ball is due to his reckless actions when defending Xiao Yao, and the main responsibility is indeed on him.

"It doesn't seem to be very impressive!" Looking at Zheng Zhebin's embarrassed appearance after failing to break the ball, Yi Yang and Fang Qing on the bench glanced at each other, and said in their hearts.

Xiao Yao took advantage of Zheng Zhebin's break to clean the opponent, which was very obvious to amplify the opponent's mistake. If you really want to give the other party a face, Xiao Yao doesn't mean that he has to let the opponent cut off the ball in his hand, but taking a step back with the ball can also dodge the opponent's broken ball, but it won't make Zheng Zhebin look so embarrassed.

As the game continued, Yi Yang and Fang Qing became more and more sure of what they had just thought, that is, Xiao Yao did not intend to release water to take care of the face of the opposing players. But they also found that Xiao Yao's performance today was a little abnormal.

Not only Yi Yang and Fang Qing, but after a long time, even the two commentators in the commentary seat and some of the audience found that Xiao Yao's performance was a little abnormal.

This abnormality does not mean that Xiao Yao's performance is out of standard and there are many mistakes, but that he plays too flat and does not seem to be very active.

Xiao Yao's not very positive seems to be playing "old man ball" and "health ball", but he is not the same as the two former professional players who really play "old man ball" and "health ball", because his running is still very active and the arrival rate is very high. His inactivity is actually reflected in some details of handling the ball, and the accurate expression should be that there is no desire to express.

As an offensive playmaker, Xiao Yao controls the ball most of the time. Although Xiao Yao will shoot himself when he encounters the right opportunity, most of the time, Xiao Yao's first choice is always to pass the ball to a better teammate, and the second choice is to use the breakthrough to help his teammates create empty opportunities.

When defending, Xiao Yao's complements and defense are doing well. When a teammate is out of position or is broken through, Xiao Yao will quickly move to fill the position. When the other party faced Xiao Yao and tried to break through, Xiao Yao's footsteps followed very closely. When the opponent shoots in front of him, Xiao Yao will immediately raise his arm to defend the interference, but he rarely jumps, and even if he jumps, he will not jump very hard.

Before the game, the outside world touted Xiao Yao as a popular candidate for MVP, not only because of Xiao Yao's popularity, but more importantly, because of Xiao Yao's ability in two star basketball games before. Not to mention the dunk, the unbelievable passing, European step, aerial lever shooting, continuous jumping and big hat when defending, are all talked about. The audience at the scene is not necessarily Xiao Yao's fans, but most of the audience hopes to see Xiao Yao's wonderful actions and performances.

As a result, more than half of the game was played, except for some wonderful passes, everyone else didn't see it, only saw a floor flow, and it was also a Xiao Yao who did not break through the inside line and rarely sought physical contact with the floor flow, and most of the audience naturally found that Xiao Yao was abnormal.

Although Xiao Yao has only played two exhibition games, and there are few videos of him playing basketball at other times, he has grown from twenty to twenty-three years old in recent years, and his physical functions are rising, and his figure is not out of shape, no one thinks that Xiao Yao's basketball skills and physical fitness are regressive. Therefore, Xiao Yao's performance also aroused the curiosity of the commentator and the dissatisfaction of some audiences.

And what really made the audience show this dissatisfaction with Xiao Yao was after an attack by a northern celebrity.

When there is a fast attack opportunity, Xiao Yao will also actively run to participate in the fast attack. During a fast attack opportunity of the Northern Celebrity Team, Xiao Yao rushed to the front of everyone and successfully received the pass from his teammates.

It's just a matter of not forcing inside layups and dunks when attacking in positional battles, after all, no one can guarantee the success rate of scoring in the face of opposing defenders. It's okay if you don't jump defensively, after all, jumping means that you may be shaken, and the jump of defense is also about the choice of timing, and no one can guarantee that you will be able to cover the opponent if you jump. But when you face an unguarded basket on a fast break, it's time to show it, right?

So, when the audience saw that Xiao Yao received a basketball during the fast attack, and there was a horse in front of him, and there was no defender, many viewers at the scene couldn't help but stand up and shouted "Buckle one!"

But Xiao Yao, who received the ball, turned a deaf ear, and after dribbling the ball to the basket, he still jumped up lightly, sent the basketball into the basket with a layup action, and scored two points very lightly.

"Huh~" Seeing that Xiao Yao didn't dunk at such an opportunity, some viewers at the scene couldn't help but boo.

Hearing the boos of the audience, Xiao Yao, who landed on the ground, shook his head helplessly.

Xiao Yao didn't play very actively, but his contribution to the team was still not low. After the fast-break score, the Northern Celebrities led the Southern Celebrities by six points, and the head coach of the Southern Celebrities called a timeout.

The players on both sides returned to the bench, and the two commentators on the commentary bench took the opportunity to talk about what had just happened.

"It's a star exhibition game, there's no home and away, no home and no away teams. Hearing the boos from the audience, Zhou Qun in the commentary seat smiled happily, "I seem to have heard this kind of game where the audience has no obvious tendency to be booed by the audience because of their scores." ”

"I've heard it once before," He Jian also smiled, "Do you remember the American professional basketball All-Star Game seven or eight years ago? At that time, Cobb of the Lakers was also on the fast break, and he got to the basket without a single defender in the half, and there was no dunk, and the audience was also booed. But it was the All-Star Game of American professional basketball, and Cobb was a top professional player. It's the first time I've been booed for not having a dunk in a game for a non-professional player!"

"Yes, yes, when you say that, I remember it. Zhou Qun nodded again and again and smiled, "Unexpectedly, Xiao Yao actually inadvertently had the same experience as an American superstar." ”
