As in previous years, it was the Celebrity Race, the Rookie Challenge, the Big Three Challenge, and finally the All-Star Game.

It's just that Yi Jianlian's fans may be a little unaccustomed to it, because Yi Jianlian did not participate in other events other than the All-Star Game this year.

Before the All-Star Weekend began, many fans actually suggested that Yi Jianlian try to participate in the Skills Challenge to win the championship, so as to become the first player in NBA history to win three major Challenge Games.

But Yi Jianlian didn't give any reply this time, last year he said that if he didn't participate, he wouldn't participate, and even later the official specially sent an invitation to the skills challenge, which was also rejected by Yi Jianlian.

Although the fans regret it, Yi Jianlian just doesn't want to participate and has no choice, so he can only look forward to the next time, some fans are ready to suggest once a year, and they have to worry about Yi Jianlian to the skills challenge!

This year's NBA Masters came with a big star, Justin Bieber, who became a member of the Masters West for the first time as a competitor.

In addition to his participation in this game, there are many players worth mentioning: the head coach of the West is "Magic" Johnson this time, and the Western team members also include the former Lakers player Fox who made adult movies, the legendary "Iron Man" AC Green of the Lakers and the only male in the Kardashian family, Rob Kardashian, plus Justin Bieber, the lineup can be said to be star-studded.

The lineup in the East is completely worthy of the West: Pippen, "God's Left Hand" Chris Mullin, and Secretary of Education Arne Duncan are among them, and the head coach is ESPN's ace commentator, the great Trail Blazers Bill Wharton.

If you compare the members of this Masters with the last Masters held on the Mavericks, it can be said that this Masters is as famous as the last one.

That's why Los Angeles compares to New York!

Here, even the level of stars has to be raised to a higher level.

The final winner of this Masters game was the Western Stars, and the final MVP was won by Justin Bieber.

The Masters will be followed by the Rookie Challenge.

This time it was the Year 1 team that won, and this is the second time in a row that the Year 1 team has beaten the Year 2 team.

The final MVP was won by this year's No. 1 No. 1 pick, John Wall, who dished out a total of 22 assists in this game as the Wizards' future hope, which broke the Rookie Challenge's assist record.

It's just that this result made DeMarcus Cousins a little unhappy, he scored a game-high 33 points and a game-high 14 rebounds in the East, but he didn't get the MVP......

Cousins: You're meowing at me!

However, John Wall is his alumnus, and when he thinks of last year's "March Madness", he can only persuade himself to accept the result generously.

Of course, Cousins was not without results, and he showed the ability to dominate his peers in this game, which made the Kings management determined to put him at the core!

Even if he has a bad brain, how can he be willing to cultivate this talent that is about to overflow?

On the second day of All-Star Weekend, the three major challenges began.

Just like last year, the first one to start was the Skills Challenge, which featured a lot of names among the players: Derrick Rose, Stephen Curry, Westbrook, and new Rookie Challenge MVPs John Wall and Chris Paul.

Judging from the achievements of these five guys, the worst may be John Wall, as for the others, Chris Paul is now the league's No. 1 point guard, Derrick Rose is the youngest regular season MVP in the future history of the NBA, Stephen Curry is the future three-point king, and even to some extent he changed the entire league, and Westbrook, he has averaged a triple-double per game for two consecutive seasons.

Seriously, it's not an exaggeration to call this Skill Challenge "the battle for the best defender of the future".

Even Chris Paul, who is now in his prime, will still be one of the best defenders in the league for the next decade.

It's just that this "battle for the strongest guard" is very powerful in terms of fame and future achievements, but just this skill challenge, these guys are a lot worse, the best performance in the preliminaries is Westbrook, he only took 30 seconds, this result is barely okay, the others are outside 34 seconds, and the remaining promotion spot was won by Stephen Curry in 34.1 seconds.

A gap of 4.1 seconds.

Originally, fans thought that Wei Shao would win the championship of the skills challenge, but at the beginning of the finals, Wei Shao played abnormally and only got a score of 44.2 seconds, which was ranked last in the preliminaries, and Stephen Curry did not miss the opportunity to win the skills challenge championship in 28 seconds that exceeded the best time in the preliminaries.

And Wei Shao could only watch Stephen Curry win the cup.

The next step was the three-point shooting contest, as the defending champion of the previous edition, Yi Jianlian gave up participating this time, and he was replaced by his former teammate Daniel Gibson of the Bucks.

The eventual winner was the Heat's James Jones, who defeated the Celtics' Paul Pierce and Ray Allen by 20 points in the Finals, with the latter two shooting just 18 and 15 points in the Finals.

It is worth mentioning that Kevin Durant lost to Yi Jianlian last year, and made a comeback this year, originally he thought that with his own strength, without Yi Jianlian's hindrance, the champion must have come to his hand, but as a result, he only threw 7 points in the preliminaries, and his rhythm was completely messed up from the first point when he didn't score three consecutive shots, and then he simply let go of the pitch and threw a rather beautiful "tune", Kobe Bryant sat on the sidelines, only clapped his hands after listening, and his son can be taught! Jordan felt a little regretful, couldn't this guy play two more irons?

After the three-point contest, it's time for the final finale All-Star Slam Dunk Contest!

Although the whole process of last year's slam dunk contest was criticized, this year's event is still quite exciting for fans because of Griffin's participation.

Moreover, the quality of the contestants in this slam dunk contest is also very high, in addition to Griffin, McGee, Ibaka and DeRozan are all contestants in this slam dunk contest, these guys, except for DeRozan is an outside line, and the physical fitness is poor, the other two are not worse than Griffin's physical fitness, McGee is the league's famous "cake king", he and Griffin's teammate Jordan Jr., one east and one west, are all representatives of the beast with long arms in the blue-collar center.

Not to mention Ibaka, whose well-developed muscles and blood-pumping blocks during the game are enough to show how strong his physical fitness is!

This slam dunk contest is also known as "a contest between beasts"! u
