Three days later.

"It's finally here!!"

February 18, 2013.

Houston, Toyota Center.

"The long-awaited first All-Star Game after changing the selection rules is finally coming off!!"

How many years.

Looking at the warm and extraordinary atmosphere of the scene, looking at the expectant eyes of all the media on the scene, and watching the players eager to try one by one, they can't wait to jump on the field immediately and start fighting.

The commentators at the scene, Smith, Barkley, and O'Neill, couldn't help but sigh.

It's been years since I've seen anything like this!

"When was the last time the All-Star Game was so lively and so much attention??"

Looking at the eager eyes of the fans who were full of anticipation, Smith said: "I have the impression that only the last All-Star of the old rascals in 2003 has a fight, right??" ”

"Nonsense!"

O'Neal on the side shook his head, and the corners of his mouth turned unconvinced: "The 2009 Phoenix All-Star is very exciting. ”

“…… Oh? ”

Barkley was a little unable to come back to his senses, frowned and recalled, suddenly not remembering what happened to the All-Star that year, and wondered: "Was that year wonderful?" How come I am not impressed?? ”

"You guys are embarrassed to be all-star commentators?? Don't you do your homework before you go on stage? ”

O'Neal said arrogantly: "Give you a minute to check what happened at the All-Star Game that year!" ”

The 2009 All-Star Game?

Hearing O'Neill's words outside the commentary script, the director immediately began to inquire about the information.

“…… Burst. ”

As soon as he saw the information page, the director couldn't help but laugh out loud.

“…… Laugh and send it over! ”

Barkley and Smith are in a hurry, you are a director, why don't you send us the information quickly, and you are laughing there?? I don't know if we are embarrassed to be suppressed by this big fat man's IQ like this??

"It's coming, it's coming...... Hahaha......"

The director also realized that he was a little derelict in his duties, and immediately began to operate, sending the information to the return screen of the commentary desk, and couldn't help but laugh again before clicking the send button.

Seeing the message sent, Barkley breathed a sigh of relief and said, "Well, let's take a look at what happened on the 2009 All-Star Game in the eyes of this big fat man...... Fuck you, shameless thing!! ”

On the screens of the audience, the overview information of the All-Star Game of that year also appeared, and everyone laughed when they saw the information.

"See? See?? ”

O'Neal was "shameless", stretched out his hand to arrange the collar of his suit and said: "That year's All-Star Game was the last All-Star Game of a generation of superstars, and it was also the time when the bell of the end of the era was ringed, and it was also a ...... in the history of NBA, no, world basketball history."

"Fuck off!"

Smith laughed and shoved O'Neal, but he was almost pushed out by the reaction.

It was recorded on the screen that it was the last All-Star Game that O'Neal himself participated in.

And in the game, O'Neal, who has entered the twilight of his career, can be regarded as a great power, only playing 11 minutes in the game, but he shot 8 of 9 from the field, and cut down 17 points, 5 rebounds and 3 assists.

This kind of performance of the inside giant level allowed O'Neill's western troops to win easily, winning by nearly 30 points in the eastern troops.

O'Neal's mechanical dance at the beginning, the force in the game, and the scene of lifting the All-Star Game MVP trophy with Kobe Bryant, who scored 27 points, all appeared in front of everyone's eyes at once, and everything is still vivid.

"Hahahaha, you shameless guy......"

After some frolic, Smith and Barkley also couldn't stop laughing, seeing that O'Neill was still arrogant, and even stood up from the commentary stage and performed his pretty good mechanical dance again (almost didn't knock Smith and Barkley off the stage), which was considered to forgive the fat man's limelight-stealing behavior.

"Having said that, although I don't approve of this fat man's way of stealing the limelight, there is one thing I have to admit."

Barkley still had something to say: "All-stars with this guy here are really entertaining and really good-looking." ”

Oh, yes!

Barkley's statement has been recognized by countless fans in front of the TV.

O'Neill, putting aside his strength, let's just talk about his personality, which is really a bit of his own flaw.

He is so happy, a little cautious, exaggerated, and expressive. The teammates around him must be treated as the only king to offer, otherwise he will lose his temper like a child, belonging to the kind of person who seems to get along very well, but in fact has to get along seriously, and he has to guard against the lord who provides for him.

Just like the so-called companion like a tiger, if you want to be a good teammate of O'Neill, you have to follow him in all rhythms, he said that you don't go west in the east, he plays all kinds of praise, he doesn't play well and he has all kinds of backs, and he is comfortable to serve, you are in the team, by his side, you will be comfortable.

And the reason why Kobe Bryant and O'Neal once had a falling out is because of Kobe's character, it is impossible to do this.

But beyond that, O'Neal is absolutely competent as an All-Star.

His talent for entertainment, his funny skills, his desire for expression, and his strong style of playing...... It's all so good for the All-Star game, so good for entertaining the public — and he really likes the feeling of being in the limelight.

There is always no shortage of highlights in the All-Star Game with O'Neal, and even if the game itself is lackluster, O'Neal can make a lot of unexpected moves.

What shoes and telephones, what kisses Maddie's brain, what pregame dancing with Howard, what turning into a fan after seeing Carter's dunk, etc., etc., it can be said that as long as O'Neal is on the All-Star court, these two hours or so will definitely not be difficult.

And now, O'Neal has long since retired, and it is impossible to see this flexible fat man on the All-Star field again. The All-Star Game continues every year, but I believe that many fans will have a feeling when watching the players play "friendly basketball":

It would be nice if that dead fat man was here!

"Hmph, of course!"

In the face of Barkley's praise, O'Neal was not polite at all, and said with his nostrils turned to the sky: "According to me, the biggest problem in the current All-Star Game is not that everyone is not too serious, but that everyone is too serious." ”

"Oh? How so? ”

This idea was very novel, and it aroused some curiosity in Smith.

"You think, judging from the game, everyone is too serious, they don't win, they don't take the game seriously, everyone comes like attending a drinking party, there is no heavy word, no defense at all, I don't know what the hell is fighting."

O'Neill said: "But from a 'role' point of view, everyone is too serious. Everyone knows that this is an all-star game, and they all know that this is the time to entertain the public, and it is an exhibition game, so everyone doesn't think of themselves as athletes, they all become actors, from the game to the preparation before and after, they don't care at all, which is called too deep into the play. ”

"Well, there's some truth to that."

Barkley nodded: "After you were swept away by the All-Star Game before, everyone still thought that maybe Howard could inherit your mantle and become a new generation of All-Star Game Fun Treasure comedian, but now it seems a little disappointing!" ”

"Yes, Howard cared a little too much about the character of the previous few years, and now all of a sudden, all kinds of complaints and criticisms, ruined his previous image of the big boy next door."

Smith said: "Howard's talent for comedy is not enough, how can I say it...... It's still not harmonious enough! This is one of the reasons why the All-Star Game is getting worse and worse! ”

"Hehe, you don't have to worry~"

Although what the two partners said was true, O'Neal was not worried at all, Erlang's legs were crossed (and he almost knocked out Smith and Barkley) The old god was saying: "Last year, I was a little worried about my heir, but now, I'm not worried at all~"

“…… Well? Why? ”

The two partners were puzzled at the same time: "Found an heir??" ”

"Hey, that's right!"

O'Neill smiled and stretched out his hand and pointed at the court, "Right there!" ”

…… Oh??

Everyone was curious about who O'Neill's eyes were as entertaining as a guy who could compete with him.

The camera camera immediately followed O'Neill's movements and moved to the field.

“…… Cousin! Cousin! Cousin! Cousin!! ”

I SAW THAT ON THE SIDELINES OF THE GU YU TEAM, THE SPECTATORS IN THE STANDS WERE FRANTICALLY CALLING FOR GU YU, AND IN THE MIDST OF THE SHOUTING, GU YU DRIBBLED, STARTED NEAR THE MIDDLE CIRCLE, AND RUSHED TO THE BASKET WITH A CRAZY ROAR ALL THE WAY, STARTING NEAR THE THREE-SECOND ZONE, HOLDING THE BALL IN BOTH HANDS, AND FLYING INTO A ......

“…… Bang"

Barely withholding......

"Hahaha!! Good Ball, Good Ball!! ”

On the sidelines, a group of all-star players were happy, and Gu Yu's momentum before jumping was in stark contrast to the embarrassment when he dunked at the end, causing everyone to lean forward and back and laugh.

"7 points, 7 points!!"

"6 points! Just passed! At least it's buckled in hahaha! ”

"I give 8 points! One more point for your exaggerated acting skills, cousin!! ”

Kobe, LeBron, Wade, Howard, and Griffin, the five dunk masters, sat on the side of the court, acting like the judges of the dunk contest, laughing non-stop, and took out the scoreboard in a serious way to score Gu Yu's dunk.

On the side, Duncan, Parker, Randolph and others who are waiting to participate in the "Old, Weak, Sick and Disabled Slam Dunk Contest" are all gearing up, waiting for themselves to go on the court to "shock the world"!
