If Tang Tian knew what Durant was thinking, he would definitely scold a fool.

The MVP is for the winning side, and it doesn't make sense to score more points if you lose.

Westbrook has a chance, and of course he's going to pass.

In fact, he will also pass if he is someone else, and the fundamental reason why it is Westbrook is that the latter has a strong desire to attack and always appears in the finishing position.

Tang Tian's pass reorganized the attack of the western team, and they had the advantage of overall strength, and slowly stabilized the situation on the field.

At halftime, the West regained a double-digit lead at 76-66.

Tang Tian had 18 points, 3 rebounds and 7 assists in the half, and Westbrook scored a game-high 22 points.

At halftime, Tang Tian and Westbrook beside him talked and laughed.

Durant behind him gritted his teeth.

He really feels like watching his girlfriend being soaked by others in his heart now.

Coming back in the second half, the Eastern Army suddenly picked up the pace and began to attack frantically.

Budenholzer is still very tactical.

This lineup without a center pushes the pace of the attack to the extreme.

And the Western Force Gasol is not the kind of black and rough, and the dominance at both ends of the offensive and defensive ends is not as great as imagined.

In addition, Curry's three-pointers are still constantly hitting iron.

Soon, the Eastern troops tied the score.

Cole was as unresponsive as in the first half.

He was now looking at the lineup of the Eastern team, and his mind was racing.

Before the All-Star break, the Warriors suffered a wave of injuries.

The team's starting power forward, David Lee, has suffered a serious injury and is expected to be out for about two months.

Lee previously averaged 17 points and 9 rebounds per game and was the core of the team's interior offense.

Lee's absence left the Warriors on their only two-game losing streak of the season, leaving Kerr struggling.

But looking at the fighting style of the eastern troops in front of him, he suddenly had a new idea.

The Warriors' Splash Brothers relied on the three-point shot of mercury, and many times relied on the speed of offensive and defensive conversion, and the opponent was unheard of.

If James from the Eastern team is replaced by Green, will the Warriors be able to play this kind of fast play without a center?

The situation on the field became stalemate again.

Tang Tian took the initiative to reach out to Curry to pass the ball at this time.

This quick transition between offense and defense is Curry's favorite, but he doesn't feel good, and the Eastern Army's on-court lineup suffers.

And Kerr didn't make any substitutions on the sidelines, which is why the situation is in front of him.

Since the head coach didn't react on the sidelines, he, the on-field coach, had to play a role and slow down the tempo.

Although the outcome of the All-Star Game is not important, the strength of the Western Army on paper this year is much higher than that of the Eastern Army, and it is estimated that it will be miserable after losing the game.

So it's better to win if you can win.

Curry also knew that he didn't feel good, so he gave the ball to Tang Tian's organization.

Tang Tian motioned for Gasol to drop low, and then gave the ball in for him to play low.

James is really defensive in the low post, but Gasol is too much taller than him, and the latter is still a technical stream.

A turnaround throw hits the board, and Gasol successfully puts the ball in the basket.

The western forces again took the lead.

The western troops advanced, and the eastern troops did not have the speed of offensive and defensive conversion, so they could only attack positions.

James' cut-in layup was interfered with by Gasol, and Griffin stepped back to collect the rebound.

The Western troops arrived at the front court and continued to play the inside line.

Butler saw that James couldn't hold it back, and shrunk his bag inside.

Gasol gave the ball back to Tang Tian, and the ball was given in time, and Tang Tian got an open three-point opportunity.

Tang Tian shot directly from the outside.

"Huh!"

The basketball was firmly in the frame, and the Western Army regained a five-point lead.

Cole nodded thoughtfully.

From the previous round, James failed to defend alone, and began to think about how to solve the problem of low-post one-on-one defense; To the failure of a big man like Gasol who can play and pass the ball, I thought that I had to be quick enough to help defend the rotation.

No one expected that an all-star game that had nothing to do with the outcome would give birth to something called the "Five Small System" in Kerr's mind.

Cole didn't react on the sidelines, but relying on Tang Tian's control, the western troops re-stabilized the situation.

After about 10 minutes of this quarter, Kerr stopped thinking and got up and began to make substitution adjustments.

Another five-up-five-down.

Tang Tian had already scored 8 points in the quarter before the game, and his personal score reached a game-high 26 points, and he also handed out 4 rebounds and 9 assists.

The two sides went to the bench stage, and Westbrook was once again the center of attention, he was a point guard, and he really did it with the ball.

By the time he reached more than 3 minutes in the fourth quarter, his individual score had already broken 30 points.

Moreover, the strength of the substitute lineup of the western troops is much stronger than that of the eastern troops, and the lead of the western troops at this time is close to 20 points.

In the last few minutes, the main forces of both sides came back one after another to play the final decisive moment.

Curry's All-Star Game was toxic, but James got rid of the cold outside of last year's All-Star Game and made two three-pointers in a row, giving the East some hope.

However, Tang Tian and Westbrook on the Western side quickly scored three points each, erasing this hope.

In the end, the West team defeated the East team 163-148 and won the game.

On the Eastern side, James continued his team-high 30 points and seven assists, Irving scored 21 points off the bench, Wall had 19 points and seven assists, and Butler had 16 points.

On the Western Army's side, Westbrook scored a game-high 38 points, 7 rebounds and 2 assists, Tang Tian scored 31 points, 5 rebounds and 11 assists, and Curry had 15 points and 7 rebounds.

After the game, the staff on the sidelines will make the final MVP selection on the sidelines.

As is customary in previous years, the person with the highest score will be the ultimate MVP, and Westbrook has a very high probability.

But Tang Tian's performance is also very eye-catching, and just 2 years ago, Paul scored 20 points and 15 assists, and Durant, who scored 30 points, won the MVP.

So until the final result is known, everything is still unknown.

After waiting for a while, Xiao Hua came to the center of the arena with an envelope containing the results, and after he opened it, he announced the final ownership of the All-Star Game MVP.

"The MVP winner of the 2015 NBA All-Star Game is...... Russell Westbrook and Tang Tian. ”

When Westbrook's name was pronounced, everyone had a look on their faces.

But when Tang Tian's name was read out, most people were a little confused.

"They share the AMVP honor."

Xiao Hua then added.

Only then did everyone understand.

This year's All-Star Game was quite up and down, with the Eastern Army having a chance to turn the momentum around in each half.

If it weren't for Tang Tian's control of the field and Westbrook's continuous scoring in the bench period, it would be really difficult to say whether the winner would have been lost.

Therefore, from the perspective of the most valuable, the role of both of them is indispensable, and they should indeed receive this honor together.

Even in terms of statistics, Tang Tian's big double-double of 31 points and 11 assists is not inferior to Westbrook's 38 points.
