On February 19, the 2005 NBA All-Star Weekend kicked off in Denver, where it was held.

The first thing to start was the star exhibition game, to be honest, the level of the stars is average, there are some retired players who are okay, and the entertainment stars are purely for entertainment.

Two hours later, the Star Exhibition Contest ended and this year's Rookie Challenge began.

The Rookie Challenge has been reformed this year, and it is only divided into two halves, with a total of 40 minutes, and there are actually quite a lot of highlights of this year's Rookie Challenge.

Carmelo Anthony was not selected for the main game, so naturally all the fans will pay attention to his performance.

The contrast between first-year champion Howard and second-year champion Xi James.

Civil war between the Huskies – mostly Anthony Washington, Chris Paul, and Brandon Roy beating up Lu Fei.

Relatively speaking, the first-year rookie performed more eye-catching, full of enthusiasm and passion, and dunked eight or nine times in the first half alone, which whetted the appetite of fans.

"Chris Paul's passing was really imaginative, and Howard was like a tiger coming down a hill to get the ball into the basket." The on-site narrator exclaimed.

"So far in the first half, the two sides have led 18 times alternately, and the two sides have drawn 9 times, and of course the sophomore pair doesn't seem to be at full strength, and everyone knows that James, Wade and Lu Fei will all play in the All-Star Game the day after tomorrow, so they will definitely retain some of their strength."

The first half ended with cheers from the fans, with the sophomore team trailing the rookie team 58-64.

At halftime, Carmelo Anthony said with a bitter face: "I said brothers, are you playing me?" I'm not like you guys can play in the All-Star Game, and if I lose this game, I, the host, don't plan to have dinner. ”

Wade rubbed his ears: "First of all, what is delicious?" ”

"I've heard that there's a good restaurant in Denver that tastes great, and the key is to have wifi!" James said.

Lu Fei thought for a while: "The main reason is that I am afraid that you will not be able to spend more money, so I will reduce the burden for you." ”

“……”

Carmelo Anthony felt that getting to know a few of them was the worst decision.

At this time, the door of the locker room was pushed open, and Chris Paul secretly hid behind the door, but Lu Fei saw through it at a glance.

"Lu, I haven't seen you for a long time, come and say hello to you." Paul said curtly.

"Pull it down, you're coming to eavesdrop tactics?" Lu Fei gave him a blank look.

"How is it possible, I am ...... By the way, what's the restaurant you just talked about? Paul abruptly changed the subject: "Is it delicious?" Can you bring me with you? ”

Carmelo Anthony rolled his eyes: "Yes, yes, but in the second half of the game, you have to remember, um, you know?" ”

"Understood." Paul made an OK gesture and gave him a wink.

At the start of the second half, players from both sides took to the pitch amid the cheers of the fans.

The first-year rookies suddenly found that the 'big brother' suddenly became serious, Anthony came up with "bang", "bang", "bang" and "bang" dunked three bolts in a row, Wade scored two goals in a row without mercy, James did not show weakness and dunked from a distance, Lu Fei was responsible for sprinkling water, shooting and passing the ball casually.

The situation between the two sides took a turn for the worse, and just after 10 minutes, the sophomore team stretched the difference to 100:84.

Howard was in a hurry, he originally wanted to get a rookie challenge MVP to play, and if he lost the game, he wouldn't get this award.

Despite his constant counterattacks, the dunk was still so passionate, but ......

"I'm sorry, I'm passing high."

"Mistake, mistake, just slipped my hand."

"Oops, you didn't run in place?"

In the face of Chris Paul's successive mistakes, he completely gave up, what kind of pig teammate is this?

The score difference in the game widened vigorously, reaching more than 30 points at most.

In the end, the sophomore team defeated the rookie team 133-106, contributing 31 points to the winning team, and Anthony from the host country was named the most valuable player of the tournament.

After the game, James, Wade, Paul and Lu Fei were already waiting next to Anthony's car in the parking lot.

At night, it is indispensable to slaughter large households.

……

The next day, a few of them had nothing to do, and they all sat on the sidelines to watch the trick game.

The first thing that started was the Mixed Shot Contest.

The Suns' Marion, Torris and Majer won the tournament with the fastest six-point shot in 28 seconds.

What followed was a skill contest that would test the ability of the league's top point guards, with the league's current assist leader, Nash, winning the championship with a time of 25.8 seconds.

Richardson, also from the Suns, played well in the three-point shootout, hitting 19 shots to win the championship.

The Suns were in the limelight for a while, winning the first three competitions of the synchronized competition.

"Lu, why don't you sign up?" Anthony pouted from the sidelines.

"Not interested." Lu Fei said with a smile.

"You're going to go up, at least the championship of the three-point and skill games can't run away, and the Suns are cheap for nothing."

"Who said that there is a lot of luck in these two competitions, and I can't guarantee that it will work."

"I say you can do it, you can do it."

", do I want you to say it?"

"Haha"

Everyone laughed, but they all knew that these were appetizers, and the most important game of the day was the slam dunk contest.

The final slam dunk contest culminated in the All-Star Weekend.

The slam dunk contest was the grand finale of the day, with the Hawks' Joe Smith and the Suns' Stoudemire outpacing the other two opponents in terms of action design and difficulty.

In the game, the two also showed their dunk talents.

Stoudemire's dunk was quite creative, he first threw the ball to rebound, Nash passed back directly with his head, and then Stoudemire received the ball in the air with a heavy dunk, and the ingenious creativity not only won the applause of the audience, but also conquered the referee, scoring a perfect score of 50 points.

And Smith changed into the jersey of Wilkins, the two-time dunk king, and his dunk was also dripping.

In the final finals, Joe Smith first staged a big windmill slam dunk, and in the second round, he performed a 360-degree windmill dunk in the air, both of which Smith scored a perfect 50 points.

Those two perfect dunks overshadowed Stoudemire's 87 points.

Joe Smith became this year's slam dunk king.

However, in Lu Fei's view, this year's slam dunk contest is really lackluster, and what impresses him in his memory may be the slam dunk contest between LaVine and Gordon in those two years.

Especially Gordon, the uncrowned king......

He looked at James beside him, if this guy participates in the slam dunk contest, I don't know if he can win the championship?

When all the games today were over and everyone was ready to leave, a picture suddenly appeared on the big screen -

"The Road to the NBA for Chinese Players"

The footage shows Yao Ming's first NBA game, he played 19 minutes, didn't score a point, and fell while defending, as well as a funny scene of Barkley kissing the donkey's ass when Yao Ming scored more than 19 points for the first time.

Interspersed with some pictures of Wang Zhizhi and Battle.

Then there was Lu Fei, Lu Fei scored the first point in the NBA, broke the first scoring record, scored a double-double for the first time, was knocked to the ground by the opponent's fierce foul, and the final ending was still Barkley kissing the donkey's butt......

Sitting on the sidelines, Barkley felt that the whole world was full of malice towards him.
