During the rotation, the East unexpectedly played better, and the East also led by 3 points in the first quarter.

To be honest, Zhang Xiaotian is a little nervous, but the All-Star Game is a regular game mode, and he can also use skills when the time comes, and he will not let the East win, just like when he was in the East.

In the second quarter, the scores of the two sides began to stalemate, and it was already a bit of a real fight.

Fortunately, there is no way to have a defensive system on the All-Star, or the offensive side is more dominant.

To Zhang Xiaotian's surprise, Anthony was a little absent-minded, and his score continued to rise.

Taking advantage of the fact that the defense was not so tight, Zhang Xiaotian made two consecutive three-pointers to help the Western Army overtake the score, and his score also came to 17 points.

It's still not enough insurance, Zhang Xiaotian continues to improve his concentration, and he is completely in a playoff state.

James had the heart to remind his teammates, but he didn't have a good idea of being an All-Star.

On their side, Paul George is also desperately slashing points, James looks at the situation and is not so big, this game is good to play with Kobe, and desperately playing a retired old guy will also be criticized.

Of course, you can't be humiliated by Kobe, but fortunately, Kobe Bryant no longer has the ambitions he had before this season, and the two of them can relax and chat in the position, which is very hilarious.

In the first half, the Western side led by 2 points, and everyone only noticed the data at halftime.

Westbrook was a little wary all of a sudden, and he did have some thoughts about the All-Star MVP.

However, it's not easy to grab it in the all-stars, so you can only look at some chances.

Zhang Xiaotian took the initiative to go over and chat with Westbrook, many times the west is the one who is holding the ball, Zhang Xiaotian deliberately talked about the topic of winning the victory beautifully, but it caused some resonance among the other party.

Popovich smiled at Zhang Xiaotian again at this time, which made him a little nervous.

However, in the subsequent tactical analysis, Popovich really gave him a chance, he showed that Zhang Xiaotian's big heart was a nuclear weapon in a half-joking taste, and the other players immediately coaxed to say that they wanted to see it, and Popovich took the opportunity to determine some simple tactics and give Zhang Xiaotian a chance.

Zhang Xiaotian was moved and decided to find two good bottles of red wine for the old man after solving the task.

As an important figure in the West, Kobe Bryant didn't say much, he chose to say goodbye lightly at the All-Star, no crazy shooting, no vigorous dunks, no desperate defense, just bland three-point and endless passes, and even chose to take the initiative to serve the baseline ball.

Kobe Bryant has different choices from the regular season, and Zhang Xiaotian will have one less of the biggest contenders to compete for MVP.

In fact, everyone felt in the first half, and now Kobe Bryant still has this attitude, and the other players are also a lot more active.

In the third quarter, the West's three-point burst without warning.

First, Wei Shao hit consecutive hits, and then Curry, Durant and Zhang Xiaotian.

In fact, this is normal, the three points of a group of people in the west are better than those of their opponents, but it is still a little unexpected to start from Wei Shao.

On the eastern side, Paul George has the same plan as Zhang Xiaotian, and he will desperately cut points at the beginning.

In the third quarter, Paul George scored 29 points, followed by Zhang Xiaotian with 26 points.

In the second half, everyone was not as humble as before, and to ensure that he won the All-Star MVP, Zhang Xiaotian must definitely show his best state in the final quarter.

As for the question of victory or defeat, that three-point rain has given the West a lot of advantages.

However, the double-digit advantage is nothing in the All-Star, and there are too many players on both sides who can explode points, but everyone intends to score on the three-point shot, which is good news for Zhang Xiaotian.

There are also three points on the bench in the West, which can disperse the firepower, and now there are several who can compete with him, and the three points can't play him.

There are two Thunder who want to play in the West, Curry, Harden, and Anthony Davis also want to play but don't have enough opportunities, Leonard and Paul are difficult to compete for MVP because of their playing style.

In the East, Paul George's dominance has made many people lose interest, and those like Thomas Jr. who want to play have no chance, including Wall, DeRozan, and Drummond, but the main team is not particularly active.

During the second half rotation, Paul, Harden and Klay Thompson teamed up to extend the advantage in the West to 20 points, and at this time everyone saw that the West was almost stable.

There is no need to give face on the Western bench, Popovich will change back to the main team, then there are only four people left who have a chance to win the MVP, Curry, Wei Shao, Durant and Zhang Xiaotian, of which Zhang Xiaotian is temporarily ranked first in scoring.

And these four people happen to belong to two teams, and Curry also thinks a little bit about MVP, but not so strongly.

Several people sat together and laughed and talked, much more familiar than just now, in fact, they were already making up their minds in their hearts.

Zhang Xiaotian hit three points on the first catch after coming on the court, showing his attitude.

On the eastern side, Paul George was a little unwilling, he was the player with the most points, but the east was too far behind, Anthony looked indifferent, and Paul George took the initiative to switch the defense against Zhang Xiaotian as soon as he gritted his teeth.

Zhang Xiaotian didn't speak first, and then whispered after he posted Paul George without even a good chance to catch the ball: "Dude, give face, you can change your defense, don't move seriously, otherwise I may not be affected, you will be in trouble when you score, we are so far ahead, there is no need for the All-Stars to work hard." ”

Paul George suddenly understood, even if he locked Zhang Xiaotian, it was useless, it was indeed difficult to chase points now, although their lineup exploded three points in the first half, but in fact, the three points were not particularly good.

Paul George simply switched back, because the score gap was not small, James was dragged because of Kobe's matter, and the two sides also focused on cutting points, and had no intention of making a big battle.

Zhang Xiaotian doesn't have as many chances to touch the ball as the guard on the front line, but he won't be polite if he gets the rebound, and with the bonus of skills, his shooting rate is definitely the highest.

In the last two minutes, Paul George scored 40 points, Zhang Xiaotian also scored 38 points, and the gap between the two sides did not narrow, and the game entered garbage time.

Zhang Xiaotian scored the second-highest score in the game, and also had 11 rebounds and 5 steals, the All-Star MVP has been stabilized, and he did not continue to be greedy at the last moment, and also assisted Curry one.

As his name was announced in the All-Star MVP selection, the sound of mission completion was heard in the system.

[Complete the All-Star Challenge Quest and get the reward: All-Star Gear.] 】

Zhang Xiaotian just glanced at it, and couldn't help but be happy, facing the microphone handed over by the reporter, he sighed: "This is really amazing." ”
