Chapter 635 [Star Exhibition Competition]

This celebrity weekend, Chloe Moretz's brothers didn't come, she came with Zhou Gaozhuo and Martha. So stay in the hotel all together.

Zhou Xuan was worried that Emma would feel awkward, and if there was another woman who liked her boyfriend, it would be very awkward. It's just that the two girls are very bland, neither stabbing each other, but also talking and laughing, maybe because of the age difference, Emma didn't treat Chloe as an opponent. In short, there is no sense of disobedience.

If Kolo was allowed to go back to the hotel first, and the four of them had supper, Zhou Xuan would not agree, then he felt that there was something missing. Now Colo is more like his family than the Olsen sisters, so this weekend it was a group of five.

The next day, Zhou Xuan participated in three-point training, and his hand felt average, but he didn't care about winning or losing. He felt bored about the challenge, and when he was still a fan, he rarely paid attention to the next day's activities, at most he watched the slam dunk contest and lamented the bouncing power of the flyers.

After the first two games, Zhou Xuan didn't know who won the championship, and chatted with Chloe and Emma about the recently released movies in the stands. It wasn't until the three-point contest started that Zhou Xuan cheered up.

Participating in the three-point contest included defending champion James Jones, Thunder star Kevin Durant who replaced Joe Johnson, new Wolves Kevin Love, Knicks power forward Ryan Anderson, Nets guard Anthony Morrow and Zhou Xuan. Among them, Lefou, Zhou Xuan, Anderson and Morrow are all participating in the three-point contest for the first time.

The first to appear in the preliminaries was Zhou Xuan. Zhou Xuan, who didn't warm up at the first point, performed very badly, only hitting one shot and getting one point. In the left corner, he rarely shoots, usually on the right side. He played well on the next three points, didn't miss any flowers, only missed three shots, and scored 15 points. He hit two shots, including flower balls, and scored 19 points. Zhou Xuan is very satisfied with this score, the rhythm is good, and it belongs to normal play.

Zhou Xuan's mentality is very flat, among the stars who participated in the competition in the past, Jordan and Iverson are at the bottom, even if he misses it, it is nothing.

The second to appear is Lefou. Although the first two points were not good, scoring only 5 points, Love adjusted in time, made a late effort, and made 11 of the last 15 shots to score 18 points.

The third player was Nets guard Morrow, who vowed to win the championship before the game, and he was a famous three-point player in the league, but he played erratically, scoring only 14 points.

Jones was even worse, scoring just 12 points.

Anderson's first time in the tournament didn't play the same level as he did when he was training with the Knicks, scoring 17 points. Originally, Zhou Xuan felt that he had a good chance to win the championship.

Durant, who played the last to play, scored 19 points and entered the finals with Zhou Xuan and Lefu.

Zhou Xuan still played first, and this time he performed well in the bottom corner, hitting three balls, but the other three points were not good, and he only scored 17 points.

Both big men scored 18 points in overtime, and the last 17 points beat Durant's 16 points to win the three-point title. Looking at the regular season shooting percentage, Lefu is the lowest. The really powerful Jones, Moreau, Anderson and others were eliminated inexplicably. Zhou Xuan didn't expect him to win at all, and Durant also came instead of others, so he didn't feel sorry. Lefu smiled happily and won the three-point championship by luck, adding an honor to himself.

This slam dunk contest is exciting. The Rockets Badinger made a blindfolded reflexive dunk, and the Pacers George's fluorescent dunk was creative. But they are not as good as Jazz's Jeremy Evans, who scored two goals from one person and is literally out of the acrobatic troupe. With this amazing dunk, Evans won the slam dunk contest. Evans, who is too thin to play at power forward and too slow at small forward, has not played in the Jazz, a title that may have given him a plus in the minds of the coaching staff.

At the same time, Mullin negotiated with Cavaliers manager Grant to trade Stoudamire to get Jamison and the first 10 draft picks protected, the next two years of lottery protection, and then the unprotected draft pick, even if the Cavaliers draw the top pick, it will be the Knicks's.

The deal will be announced after the All-Star Game, when players from both sides will undergo medical examinations and the uniforms will notify those involved in the deal.

Finally arrived at the star competition of the finale, Zhou Xuan's performance was changed to halftime, if the four starters were standing on the stage, he looked too special by the piano, and the hype was obvious. At that time, the media will even say that Zhou Xuan is Stern's own son, godson, etc., which is not good for the alliance.

The stars of both sides were lively when they came out, everyone was smiling and enjoying the cheers of the fans. A celebrity weekend can help stars with poor records forget their troubles for a while.

After the opening, Zhou Xuan continued to play blocking and dismantling with Stadamire and passed the ball to him, Xiao Si did not have the desire to grab the MVP, and he passed the ball with a little interference in front of him. Wade didn't attack aggressively either, hanging to Howard in the low post to let the home star shoot more.

Zhou Xuan, as the person with the most confidence in three-point shooting on the court, gave the task of breaking through with the ball to Wade according to Thibodeau's requirements, and waited for a three-point opportunity on the outside.

The defensive intensity of the All-Star Game was average, and neither side worked very hard this time. In the shrinking season, all teams are afraid of injuries, and the stars of the house are even more so, and they don't want to work hard in the star game. There were a lot of great dunks on the court in the first quarter. When the dunk became the theme of the game, there was nothing to do with Zhou Xuan, he shot a three-pointer, got 3 points and 3 assists and was replaced.

The second quarter is Durant's world, the western offense played beautifully, Zhou Xuan played soy sauce again, and the periphery waited for opportunities. Thibodeau handed over the task of attacking with the ball to Wade.

What's more embarrassing is Howard, even at the home of the Magic, he didn't show the desire to win the MVP, his teammates passed him a few balls, his main way to score is hooks and dunks on both sides, the most important thing in the West is the inside, how can he give him the opportunity to perform easily?

Zhou Xuan only relied on counterattacks to score 2 points, and 5 points and 5 assists in the half. It was his worst All-Star game. During the intermission, Zhou Xuan played the piano to cheer up, setting off a small climax. However, fans would prefer him to play in the game.

Zhou Xuan also wanted to break out, but the person who arranged the tactics was Thibodeau, a defensive coach, who always followed the routine and didn't like to play fast attack. Zhou Xuan's familiar rhythm couldn't be played.

David Stern saw the doorway and was a little displeased with Thibodeau. Ross is also good, but his popularity is worse after all, Thibodeau asked Ross to play more, and reducing Zhou Xuan's ball possession is simply against the league. Fortunately, on the other side, Durant performed eye-catchingly, and he was also the focus of the league's popularity, and Stern hoped that he could become a super scoring champion and hit Jordan's scoring record that year.

Rondo has won the assist title this season, and he has to get some playing time. In the fourth quarter, the scores of the two sides were very close, and the real battle began, and Thibodu was replaced by Zhou Xuan.

Zhou Xuan analyzed Thibodeau's psychology and sighed that this guy was insidious enough. Let him play until the end of the game, Zhou Xuan must work hard, who would want to lose at the last moment? If he loses, it seems that he is not capable enough.

Rose only played 18 minutes, and the most minutes played were Zhou Xuan, Wade, James, and Howard, all of whom were rival stars.

In the final stage, the score was very anxious, and the western troops began to compress the defense, and the 122 formation was the dead end of the current eastern team, because Thibodeau sent Zhou Xuan to play a stable three-point point. Pierce and Iguodala are off the field. Zhou Xuan's partners are the Heat Big Three and Howard.

Zhou Xuan received a three-pointer from the right side of James' ball, and then received a pass from Wade in the fast break to score a layup, and then he had no chance to shoot, and the ball could not be returned to his hand after dribbling through half court. In order to break the defensive defense, he did not hold the ball and attack it himself. If he also breaks through, his opponent will not be afraid to shrink.

The West had a seven-point lead in the last minute, but despite James scoring two goals in a row, Howard grabbed a rebound and scored a rebound, but it didn't change the outcome, and Kobe Bryant and Durant also scored twice. The West won 154-149.

Zhou Xuan got 10 points, 2 rebounds, 9 assists and 2 steals, close to a double-double, and his performance was really average. Stoudamire had 14 points and 6 rebounds, Gallinari didn't have 1 point and only 1 assist, and he played 6 minutes, which was completely a formality. He was not used to performing on such occasions yet. The best player in the East was James, with 36 points, 6 rebounds and 7 assists.

Durant had 36 points, 7 rebounds, 3 assists and 3 steals, playing 37 minutes. Brooks' approach to employment is different from Thibodeau's, and he has no intention of resting his team's stars at all, and Westbrook also played 28 minutes off the bench, far more than Nash, Parker and others, scoring 21 points, 5 rebounds and 2 assists. In the game, his performance was also eye-catching, and he staged many violent dunks after breakthroughs. Yao Ming only played 6 minutes and had 2 points and 3 rebounds.

Durant was successfully elected MVP, which was also the first MVP of his career.

Gallinari stood beside Zhou Xuan and asked in a low voice, "Why do you seem to have no energy this time?" I'm counting on you to pass the ball. ”

"We'll have to play together. It's good that you've played short, play well in the regular season, that's the most important thing, and we're going to get home advantage. Zhou Xuan said with a smile.

"Forget it, I was selected for the All-Star Game anyway, and after this season, they should be willing to renew my contract with a high salary, right? Are you familiar with the manager, do you know the inside story? Gallinari asked.

"It's going to be summer to find out, and I think it should be fine." Zhou Xuan said with a smile.

This time Zhou Xuan guessed wrong. The coaching staff now prefers Leonard and is more physical than Gallinari. Although the Italian was selected as an All-Star, he didn't shoot well from the field, shooting just 38 from three-point range. 8%, which is not a good number for him.

When he first entered the league, Gallinari's three-point shooting rate exceeded 40%, and in recent years, he has exercised his muscles, and he has become a lot stronger in the confrontation, and the shooting he relies on to survive has become worse. If he asks for a big salary in the summer, or if another team offers a particularly large contract, the Knicks may not be a match.
