Chapter 277
On February 12, 2010, the arena at the American Airlines Center in Dallas was filled with 19,200 seats.
Today's female fans are much more important than they were at other times.
The reason is simple, Canada's popular king Justin Bieber made his NBA basketball debut.
After the cheerleaders' dance performance, the live DJ began to introduce the members one by one.
"Next, let's welcome 6'1 inch, 171 pounds, from faraway China, our shrimp man, Gilbertshen." The sound of the DJ on the scene was significantly raised by 8 degrees, and the audience also burst into more enthusiastic cheers, and Shen Lian jogged into the stadium.
The theme is Shen Lian VS Bieber, so Shen Lian is the last one to play in the Eastern Celebrity Team.
And when Bieber appeared, the huge wave of noise was almost overturned in the entire American Airlines Center.
When the players on both sides came on the field, Bieber also specially found Shen Lian: "Shrimp man!" I'll treat you well. ”
"Let's eat for a few more years, baby." Shen Lian replied with a smile. In fact, I don't want to be directly opposite Bieber.
Bieber was born in 94 and is not yet 16 years old, and Shen Lian is already 24 years old, what can he do if he wins?
Bieber's height is only 163, and Shen Lian is a real 185, if he really wants to be on the right side, Shen Liantian shamelessly relies on his height to beat him to the point that he can't take care of himself in life.
The referee threw the ball into the air, Pippen and Jaylen Rose of the Western team jumped at the same time, and Batman won the opponent without accident, and dialed the ball to Shen Lian, who had been waiting.
Shen Lian didn't give in much, handed it over to his teammates to organize the attack, but after getting the ball, he quickly dribbled and attacked. The other members of the Western Army didn't react, only Bieber, who had been staring at Shen Lian, followed, using his body to block Shen Lian's offensive line.
The opening scene was Shen Lian's direct attack on Bieber, and the audience's high point was instantly ignited.
Pippen and others are also very experienced in settling to open up the space, allowing Shen Lian and Bieber to have a 1-on-1 relationship. Pippen also waved his hand with great interest to encourage the audience to be louder.
"Shrimp man, this way is not working, if you want to score points, I'll talk about it first."
"That's what you said." Shen Lian said and changed the ball behind him to make an emergency stop, and then threw the ball out.
Bieber's height made him wave his hand in vain, and then turned his head to see the basketball thrown straight into the frame.
Shen Lian shrugged his shoulders obediently when he got the bargain, and said expressionlessly: "Actually, you can score points without passing it." ”
"Shh~" The audience let out a dissatisfied boo.
Chinese play, is a board and a look, Yao Ming is like this, the result is still the first every year, and now the shrimp people are also like this.
What they want to see is a sharp break and a violent dunk.
Bieber dribbled the ball past half court, and Zach Levi immediately cut inside, and as soon as he stood still, he half-crouched and jammed Bill Simmons (ESPN expert) of the Eastern team, reaching for the ball. Bieber immediately hoisted the ball into the inside. Zach Levi jumped to catch the ball, didn't stop, turned around and jumped, and the ball hit the board into the basket.
The female fans immediately screamed.
After all, this is also Bieber's assist.
The game begins with a back and forth.
It is mainly composed of retired players and crossover celebrities, so the level of the game is not too high. Of course, the audience's focus on this game is not on the content of the game.
Four minutes into the game, Bieber took the lead in gesturing to coach Magic Johnson to replace him.
The opening was too exciting, there was a bit of a lot of running, and the physical strength was a little bit out of sync.
Interestingly, when Bieber went off the field, Shen Lian was also replaced immediately, and the score on the field was 10:8.
Shen Lian scored four points, in addition to a mid-range jumper in the opening game, he also cut to the basket to complete a pull-up rebound. And Bieber delivered two assists, not because he passed the ball well, but because Shen Lian's teammates really didn't defend much.
"Hi, Shrimp Man. How does it feel? Jimmy Kimmel moved his ass to the side, making room for Shen Lian. At the same time, a drink was handed over.
"I don't really like this kind of non-intense, non-confrontational, it's different from what I imagined in the NBA." Shen Lian couldn't say that today's intensity was not as strong as his usual playing intensity, and he felt that he hadn't worked much hard before he was replaced by the coach.
"Be considerate and considerate, your opponent is mainly Bieber. The coach will definitely put you in a position with him more. Jimmy was also afraid that Shen Lian, like Yao Ming, would not adapt to or integrate into the atmosphere of the NBA, so he hurriedly enlightened.
"I don't really like to play basketball, but if I do, I shouldn't have a big problem abusing him." Shen Lian squinted at Bieber and said.
Basketball is really not just a contest of skills, the body is too important.
Height, speed, strength, and bounce in almost all aspects, Shen Lian formed a one-sided crushing of Bieber, and forcibly letting the two face off against each other for a certain amount of time would make Shen Lian very aggrieved.
"Can you dunk? When I trained yesterday I felt really good about your body, especially the speed. Jimmy asked. As a well-known talk show host, Jimmy is good at chatting.
"I haven't tried it in the U.S., but in China, I can dunk in a professional basketball arena."
"Then when you're going to play, you're going to be quicker when you're attacking. There must be a chance, this kind of game, everyone will not go back to defense. Remember, if you have a chance, you must deduct it. I'll pass the ball to you. ”
"Let's talk about it when you can play." Shen Lian glanced at Jimmy disdainfully, and then the two of them couldn't help but laugh again.
"Wow, it seems that Shen Lian and his teammates are having a good chat. It is very good to integrate into this team, which means that he can have good communication with his teammates and form a better tacit understanding during the game. Because of Shen Lian, CCTV made a live broadcast of this celebrity match. You must know that being able to take a little time during the broadcast of the Vancouver Winter Olympics to broadcast the All-Star Game without Yao Ming, CCTV definitely gave Shen Lian enough face. The director pointed the camera on the Shen bench of the Eastern Celebrity Team, Shen Lian and Jimmy had a good conversation, and Yu Jia and Zhang Weiping also introduced.
With two minutes left in the first quarter, Shen Lian was once again on the line, and Jimmy also got the opportunity to play, and the opposite Magic Johnson saw Shen Lian walking to the sidelines, and hurriedly signaled Bieber to play.
At the three-point line on the left side, Shen Lian received a pass and faced Bieber.
Dribbling slowly, suddenly a plus easily broke through from Bieber's left side, and in the face of Rob Kardashian's defense, he put the ball in the basket with a small throw early.
The action is completed very chic and smooth. It was no surprise that it received applause from the fans.
Rob Kardashian served directly to Bieber, and Shen Lian immediately walked up and pressed all over the court.
The high point of the audience was instantly ignited, especially the female fans at the scene.
Of course, Shen Lian can only symbolically force Bieber twice, if he really uses his body to force Bieber to stop the ball, he will definitely be booed again.
"Your defense isn't as tight as my chick last night." After half the time, Bieber began to spew trash talk at Shen Lian.
"Really?" Shen Lian immediately stuck to it and began to die entangle. If he uses his physical advantage to bully Bieber, then there will be no suspense in this game.
"Beep~" The referee blew the whistle, and Shen Lian blocked the foul.
"Whew, touch porcelain." Shen Lian complained to the referee in Chinese.
Fortunately, zero tolerance is not implemented in the All-Star Game, otherwise Shen Lian will be whistled for a technical foul again.
"Harden possessed me!" Shen Lian didn't care that Harden was famous in the league at this time, and complained.
James Harden, a Thunder rookie who was invited to participate in the All-Star Rookie Game, happened to be sitting on the sidelines and couldn't help but sneeze twice~~~.
