In the last 5 minutes, the victory was decided.

Taking into account the face of the first-year team and the feelings of the fans, the second-year team began to release water.

The defensive intensity of the two sides has dropped again, and it is equivalent to the start of the show moment.

But the huge point difference is there, and the fans can't lift their spirits.

This 5-minute game is almost over.

Although the two sides rehearsed another slam dunk contest, it failed to attract fans.

Sure enough, the 40-minute exhibition game was still a little longer, and the league's reform failed.

The reddtest score was 142:122, and the sophomore team won by a big margin.

Stoudemire, who played 35 minutes, slashed 36 points, 11 rebounds, 2 assists and 1 steal, and won the MVP of the rookie game.

In addition, Boozer had 25 points, 5 rebounds and 2 assists.

Yao Ming had 10 points, 6 rebounds, 2 assists and 3 blocks.

Ginobili had 4 points and 8 assists.

Jarric had 12 points, 4 rebounds and 1 assist.

Prince had 18 points, four rebounds and three assists.

Nene had 10 points, 8 rebounds and 6 assists.

Murray had 25 points and 10 assists.

Dunleavy had 2 points, 2 rebounds and 2 assists.

On the second grade side,

James had 33 points, 5 rebounds, 3 assists and 1 steal, and was promoted to the leader of the group.

Wade had 22 points, 3 rebounds and 2 assists.

Anthony had 17 points, 3 rebounds and 3 assists.

Bosh had 13 points and one rebound.

Ye Feng had 8 points, 4 rebounds and 12 assists.

Hinrich had 6 points, 1 rebound and 6 assists.

Haslem had nine points and three rebounds.

Howard had 13 points and four rebounds.

Hayes had 1 point, 1 rebound and 1 assist.

With that, the 2004 NBA All-Star Game was over.

Stoudemire stole Yao Ming's limelight, James was helpless, and Ye Feng's performance was average.

However, for such a performance, the fans are already relatively satisfied.

The two goals of Ye Feng and Yao Ming were enough to make fans reminisce.

Many years later, when fans think of this year's rookie game, they will definitely remember the funny scene when the two went head-to-head.

However, after the game, Ye Feng was surrounded by reporters again, and he was really helpless.

......

On February 15, the second day of All-Star Weekend, there will be multiple events.

Starting at 9 a.m., it is the Shooting Star Competition, the Skills Challenge, the Three-Point Shooting Competition, and the Slam Dunk Competition.

A total of four teams participated in this year's shooting competition.

Pistons: Active player Billups, NBA Detroit Shock rookie Shirley Ford (Malone's daughter), NBA legend John Saray.

Clippers: Active player Jarric, NBA Los Angeles Sparks Nikki Deesley, NBA legend Terry Cummings.

Lakers: Current player Fisher, NBA Los Angeles Sparks All-Star Most Valuable Player Lisa Leslie, NBA celebrity "Magic" Johnson.

Spurs: Active player Ginobili, NBA San Antonio Silver Stars Jennifer Archie, NBA legend Steve Kerr.

This is the first time that the NBA has launched the Shooting Stars Contest, where participants will shoot at six different shooting spots, each of which is increasingly difficult, and teams must hit the target in order at each shooting point within 2 minutes, with the team with the shortest time winning.

In the end, the Lakers led by "Magic" Johnson won the championship with a time of 43.9 seconds and won the first Shooting Star Competition.

......

Next, it's time for the Skills Challenge.

The participants are: Payton (Lakers), Marbury (Knicks), Boykins (Nuggets), Davis (Hornets).

However, Payton missed the game due to injury, and Fisher, who was on the same team, played in his place.

The order of the Skills Challenge is: layup, dribble, through ball, ground pass, three-pointer, layup.

The winner with less time will be decided in two rounds.

In the preliminaries, Davis was the first to play, and all the movements were done in one go, in just 28.7 seconds.

The second was Marbury, who had two three-pointers to hit and finished with 34.6 seconds.

The third was Boykins, who also had the same problem with his three-point shot, which took three shots and finished with 34.9 seconds.

The final finale was the host team's Fisher, whose problem was a land-to-ground pass with 31.6 seconds.

At this point, Davis and Fisher reached the final.

In the final, Fisher played even worse, even worse than the preliminaries, with a full 37.6 seconds.

Davis, on the other hand, was as steady as ever, making no mistakes, and even performed a dunk in 31.6 seconds.

As a result, No. 1 "Bearded" Davis from the Hornets won the Skills Challenge.

This rough-looking man, but his ball skills are quite delicate.

This surprised many people who only looked at their appearances, and they didn't expect it at all.

......

Then, it's time for the three-point shootout.

The rules of the three-point contest are relatively simple.

1: The competition is divided into two rounds, and the top 3 players in the first round advance to the second round.

2: There are a total of 5 shooting points, each shooting point has 5 balls, 4 normal balls and 1 flower ball.

3: 1 point for throwing a normal ball, 2 points for throwing a flower ball.

4: You can only throw the flower ball after the 4 normal balls of each point have been thrown.

5: The order of appearance in the second round is related to the results of the first round, the first round has a high score first, and the low score is the first to play.

6: The shooting time is 1 minute, and the shooting must be stopped when the time is over.

The players are: Mobley (Rockets), Billups (Pistons), Peja (Kings), Ye Feng (Cavaliers), Lewis (Supersonics), Leitner (Nuggets).

Before the start of the competition, the special guest, the famous R&B singer Ruben Studard, sang a song.

After the performance, the five god pitchers entered the venue to warm up and be interviewed.

The biggest one is still the big shooter Peja.

Prior to this year, Peja had won two consecutive three-point shooters, and if he wins the championship today, he will become the second three-point shooter in NBA history to win three consecutive three-point shoots.

And the last person, called "Big Bird" Bird, is a person who can compete with Jordan, the god of basketball.

So this honor is not just a performance triple crown, but can be compared with superstars.

Therefore, Peja attaches great importance to it.

Rumors were circulating before All-Star Weekend that Peja was determined to win three consecutive championships.

This year is also the pinnacle of Peja's career.

Webb's injury allowed him to take more shots, and Princeton's system made it easier for him to shoot, averaging 25.4 points, 6.2 rebounds, 2.1 assists and 1.4 steals per game, and even entered the MVP candidate sequence.

So far this season, Peja has averaged 6.9 shots from beyond the three-point line and 3.0 of them per game, shooting a whopping 42.6 percent from three-point range.

The average number of shots made on three-point court ranks fourth in the league, behind only Davis the "Big Beard" with 9.3, Ray Allen with 7.4, and Maddie with 7.2.

Ranked first in the league in three-point field shots.

Three-point shooting percentage ranks fifth in the league, behind only Ye Feng (51.4%), Brent Barry (44%), Mike Bibby (43.3%), and Korver (43.1%).

(Playing in more than 40 games and averaging at least 2.5 three-pointers per game is required to qualify for this list.) ）

The stats for every three-pointer are excellent.

So Peja's call to win the championship is high.
