Chapter 350: Mai Ai to Biao
In the second half, Qiao Hai estimated that there would be a few more minutes of dullness, so as soon as he started, he changed to the lineup he had always wanted to put out.
Point guard Chris Webb, scoring guard Kevin Garnett, small forward Dirk Nowitzki, power forward Tim Duncan, all four power forwards are on the court, and finally, the center is Patrick Ewing.
As soon as this lineup came out, there was a scream in the commentary seat.
On NBC's side, Mav Albert laughed: "Hahaha, the lineup of the Western team, five big guys?" How does this work? ”
How does this work? Qiao Hai had already arranged it.
"Chris [Webb], you're in the high post, Kevin, you can get the ball once in a while, Dirk, you've got three-point firepower, you're running, and then you're asking for the ball in the open position, shooting from a distance! Tim and Patrick just played as usual and didn't need to change much. ”
On ESPN's side, Max Colleman also exclaimed, "Oh no, what did I see!" Five insiders appeared together, is Qiao Hai crazy? ”
In CCTV's live broadcast room, Director Zhang also laughed: "Qiao Hai just knows how to play, five big men, a wonderful lineup!" ”
Xu Jicheng explained with a smile: "There are too few outside players in the western team, maybe Qiao Hai has no choice but to put on such a lineup." ”
But one thing is almost unanimous, all the commentators are not optimistic that this lineup of the Western team can play well.
As a result, five big men appeared, and it was an effect.
Kevin Garnett and Duncan are not slow, playing an outside line, fake breakthroughs are still no problem, Nowitzki's projection is more accurate than many outside players, and finally Webb, his passing ability is too strong, many point guards are not as good as him.
Everyone ran around, and the five big men blocked and covered each other in various ways, and the effect was excellent.
The big man lineup played more than three minutes, and the West also extended their lead.
The Western Army's lead was stretched to nine points.
Then, Qiao Hai replaced the five big men separately, and after various rotations, the third quarter was over, and the West Army maintained a 9-point lead.
……
In the fourth quarter, Larry Brown replaced Iverson as soon as he came up, and the East Army started to get serious first.
Qiao Hai's reaction was also very fast, and seeing Larry Brown replace Iverson, he also made a substitution.
With Maddie and Bryant returning, Jason Kidd playing point guard, and Duncan plus guard Robinson on the inside, this lineup is clearly a serious lineup.
The offense relied on Kidd's playmaking offense and Kobe Maddy's outburst to score, and the defensive end leaned on the Spurs' twin towers and began to fight hard.
Bryant's form is still average, but Maddie has exploded.
Jason Kidd organized the offense, Maddie ran away, slipped the bottom line and ran back, caught the ball and shot, smack, after the substitution, Maddie hit a three-point shot directly!
The individual score rose to 17 points.
The West team's lead also extended to 12 points.
The counterattack of the Eastern team, Iverson also broke out, the ball is in his hands, he can play how he wants, fortunately he is in good shape, otherwise Larry Brown will not be able to save face.
Iverson was a crossover, and Kobe Bryant defended seriously and entangled Iverson.
But Iverson was in a hot state, and he changed direction sharply, flashed a space, and threw a backward jumper.
Swish!
Ball in! The margin narrowed to 2 points.
In the offensive round of the Western team, Kidd still controlled the ball.
Maddie circled from the inside, went around to the top of the arc, picked up the basketball, and started playing singles.
Patrick Ewing gave a cover in the middle, Maddie lunged forward, made a stop-and-go jump shot, and went in again! scored 5 points in a row, and the difference was back to 12 points again.
Not to be outdone, Iverson returned the favor with a three-pointer!
The ball is scored, and the white net flowers are flooding!
MCI Center Wild Cheers!
Qiao Hai stood on the sidelines, his expression was the same, no matter how Iverson scored explosively, this game could not change the ending.
The lineup of the western team is already stronger, and after Qiao Hai adjusted, he gained an advantage, and the lead of about 10 points is not so easy to flip!
Soon, Maddie returned another layup, and the score returned to more than 10 points, 11 points!
Iverson broke through at the top of the arc, causing Kobe to foul and go to the free throw line to make both free throws, with a nine-point difference.
Maddie played bloody and began to play directly with the ball.
From this moment on, the battle between Maddie and Iverson is already in full swing......
Maddie singled, rushed into the inside line and dunked violently, scoring 9 points in a row!
Iverson was also singles, and after passing the screen, he rushed to the basket and threw a successful shot, which was also the 9th point in a row!
Maddie ran without the ball, received the ball from mid-range, took two steps, burst into the penalty area, caused a foul on Mutombo, and hit both free throws from the free throw line for 11 consecutive points!
Iverson turned around and shot a three-pointer and hit it directly!
12 points in a row!
Maddie played a fire, took the ball in the backcourt, and rushed to the front court to chase three points, smack, continue to score! 14th point in a row!
Turning around, Iverson hit another three-pointer for 15 points in a row!
"Crazy! It's crazy! In the midst of an explosion of cheers, Mav Albert yelled excitedly. No one expected that Maddie and Iverson would suddenly start to break up, and the state of the two was too hot! It's so hot! ”
After Mav Albert shouted this, Maddie scored another two, but Iverson hit the iron.
In this way, the big score battle ended with Maddie winning, Iverson scored 15 points in a row, and Maddie scored 16 points in a row.
The gap between the east and the west has not narrowed, and the western forces are still ahead by more than 10 points.
As a result, Iverson's wave of outbursts did not bring about a comeback, but Maddie relied on this wave of outbursts and scored 30 points directly! Almost locked up the MVP of this game.
As the game drew to a close, commentators from major TV stations began to discuss the final ownership of the MVP.
"It's undoubtedly Maddy, he scored 30 points, is the leading scorer in the West, although 3 points lower than Iverson, but the West is still the leading side, according to the practice of previous years, the MVP will not be awarded to the losing side, so, basically, it is Maddy."
McBrin makes a prediction.
CCTV, Director Zhang also made a prediction: "In the end, it should be Maddie who wins this MVP, his current data is 30 points, 5 rebounds, 6 assists and 2 steals, a very versatile data." ”
While the two were predicting, Maddie was still scoring.
However, it is not as crazy as before, and after almost locking in the MVP in advance, Maddie also began to make wedding dresses for others, and he began to run without the ball and open up space.
Let Kidd and Kobe take a few points.
Then, Maddie hit two more balls of his own, and his personal score rose to 34 points.
Joe Hai thought about it, replaced Maddie, and replaced O'Neal back.
In the end, Qiao Hai gave O'Neill a little more time to play, which can be regarded as comforting O'Neal's injured mind and body, and at the last moment, the outcome of the game was decided, and the confrontation was not so fierce.
In this way, in the end, the Western Army won the all-star battle with a difference of 142:129, 13 points!
