Chapter 757 is full of drama
The live camera first cut to the head coaches of the East and West - Mike Brown and George Carr.
It should be pointed out that they are not the head coach of the team with the best record.
But according to the All-Star rule, the previous All-Star head coach cannot be re-elected, so the current best teams in the East and West - the Hawks and Lakers head coaches Mike Woodson and Phil Jackson will be replaced by the team head coach with the second best record.
The starting five Tigers in the East are:
C Ruan Er Niu
PF Kevin Garnett
SF LeBron James
SG Dwayne Wade
PG Joe Johnson
And the five western tigers are:
C Amare Stadameyer
PF Tim Duncan
S.F. Dirk Nowitzki
SG Carmelo Anthony
PG Steve Nash
Erniu and Xidi stood in the middle circle, and as the referee blew a whistle, two muscular men jumped high, and Erniu jumped a little earlier and touched the basketball first.
Kevin Garnett in the back row easily won the basketball and put the ball in the hands of Embarrassment, who was a perennial point guard for the Hawks despite doing the job of the position with the size of a small forward.
So, followed by former boss Nash, Embarrassment easily dribbled the ball across the half.
Erniu took the initiative to raise the cover for Embarrassment, the All-Star defense was not active, Embarrassment got rid of Nash's defense very easily, Xiaosi's defense was almost equal to nothing, but Duncan's position was still quite reliable.
Embarrassment chose to pass the ball back, and received the ball at the top arc outside the three-point line, facing Nash's defense was a dry pull.
"Brush!"
The Celestial Empire hit the first goal since the start of the game.
At the beginning of the All-Star Game, there was basically no real defense, and the second bull in the rookie season may still think about making up for the gap on the inside, and after playing in the third grade, he also learned to be lazy.
On the offensive end of the Western All-Stars, Xidi and Lao Na made a blocking and dismantling cooperation, and Erniu watched Xidi enter the interior line and completed a domineering basket.
Then Erniu, who was responsible for serving the baseline ball, immediately sent a long pass to the touchdown, and D. Wade in the front court easily received the basketball and completed the chase and dunk when no one was guarding.
At the beginning of the game, the scores of the two sides were tied several times.
On the surface, the defensive intensity of both sides is not great, but judging from the situation on the court, the Western All-Stars, who have lost two consecutive All-Stars, do not want to continue losing in Dallas.
As usual, Dirk Nowitzki, as the host, should be the first attacking option, and in fact, Nash did send most of the passes to his old teammate Dirk.
But as the game continues, it's not hard to find that Carmelo Anthony is also in the ball possession, and the social melon with George Carr is not good tonight.
It's the All-Star Game, and it's a great dunk show as well as the intrigue between the leaders of each team, even if they belong to the same division, and they will also use their own means to fight for the honor of AMVP.
18 draws, 21 draws, 23 draws, 25 draws.
The main starters of both sides began to be rotated on a large scale, and the All-Star game actually tested the rotation ability of the coaches of the two teams, after all, it is necessary to let every All-Star get playing time, and let the players who are in better shape and have a stronger desire to win stay on the court.
And Erniu and D. Wade are undoubtedly the players who played the most minutes in the first quarter of the Eastern Conference All-Stars.
There is no doubt that this was calculated by Mike Brown before the game.
Let D. Wade play more than is a flattering order given by James, and let Ruan Erniu play more, although it objectively helps him brush up three consecutive AMVP, but on the other hand, it also objectively consumes the physical energy of the Celestial Empire.
Don't look at the Hawks' 50-1 record to win the league, in fact, their physical fitness is also facing a huge challenge, and having so many main players to participate in the All-Star Weekend is an extremely exhausting thing.
The Cavaliers, who are ranked second in the East, are by no means out of mind about the playoffs, and James is not ready to compete for AMVP anyway, so it is undoubtedly a more reasonable choice to increase the consumption of the main forces such as Erniu.
At 40:34, with new three-point kings Paul Pierce and Dwight Howard each hitting a three-pointer in the final moments, the East team finally ended the first quarter with a six-point lead.
Well, what's going on?
That's right, it was the spark that hit a three-pointer, in his words, it was a tribute to O'Neal, or rather, to inherit the spirit of the fat shark who was entertained to death.
However, O'Neill never looked down on the spark, and in his own words: "That kid played all the rest of my play!"
Erniu shot 3 of 3 in the first quarter, including 2 of 2 three-pointers, and scored 8 points, 6 rebounds, and 2 assists, and his efficiency was extremely high.
This data undoubtedly put pressure on several All-Star players!
In the East, D. Wade finally got the support of his good brother James and was preparing to try to welcome the first AMVP trophy in his life, but he didn't expect Kraft Nguyen to play so strongly.
In the west, Nowitz basically thought that he had the opportunity to fight for the first AMVP trophy in his career, but he didn't expect that there were wolves in front and tigers in the back.
There are many monks and few porridges, and superstars are always eager for top honors, but there are always very few people who can really get them.
The second quarter of the game started quickly, and the West side made all the substitutes, and All-Star rookie Kevin Durant got a lot of playing time, but he was not the most active player on the court because the West also had Deron Williams.
In Paul's absence, Delon finally had a chance to prove himself, and although he ate and slept to beat Paul again and again during the regular season, most of the media always gave CP3 a higher rating, which made D-ill feel quite unhappy.
Violent buckle!
When Delon cuts to the basket again and again, releasing himself in the least common way, when Kidd and Nash are getting older, Delon will do whatever it takes to compete for the position of the first point guard.
The West performed well, but the East was not bad, and the two bulls were pressed to the bench at this time, but D. Wade and Bosh took turns attacking and led the Eastern All-Stars to catch up with the score again.
The corner of the game came in the middle of the second quarter, and the three of Erniu, James, and Embarrassing Sen returned to the court.
On the offensive end of the West, Erniu and James had a wonderful chemistry.
Embarrassment sent a straight plug in the middle, and Erniu secretly sent a crotch hit the ground at the moment of receiving the ball, and handed the ball to James under the empty basket.
James evaded Nowitzki's defense in the air, glided sideways and dunked the ball into the basket with a backhand.
Immediately on the defensive end, after Erniu won the backcourt rebound, he found James again, and the two continued to make short passes, and after connecting the two, James casually threw the ball into the sky.
Erniu jumped up, held the ball in one hand in the air, and then turned sideways to the tomahawk to dunk, and Duncan, who came from the defense, dunked the ball into the basket.
Dumbfounded and flew out directly, Erniu picked up Duncan in a friendly manner, and the two exchanged a few words by the way.
In the Eastern Defense, James casually asked, "What did you say?"
Erniu smiled: "I'm very grateful to him for giving me this ball!" (The future belongs to me!)"
James pouted in embarrassment, like the one who was scolded in a family dispute.
In the Eastern All-Star team's bench, D. Wade's expression was not very happy, he scored a lot of points, and his data was not bad, but he always felt that something was wrong.
Let's put it this way, His Majesty finally put her (him) in the position of the sole favor of the Six Palaces, but I didn't expect someone to open his eyes, but found that His Majesty still had a house outside the palace, and he would have nothing to do with others.
Well, the problem has become more complicated!
At 81:69, the East continued to extend its lead, ending the first half of the All-Star Game with a 12-point lead.
