"I don't know if Addison understands the meaning of this game too much or if he doesn't understand it too much...... You must know that the referee's whistle during the All-Star period is basically like it is blocked, and it rarely makes a sound. Drexler laughed a little surprised, "But Schroder's defensive foul was so obvious that it was about to pounce on Addison." ”

"Addison seems to have his own unique skills for hitting threes, but whenever he is interested in creating a 2+1, the success rate has always been high." Bill. Naturally, Wharton, a loyal 'Amy', couldn't help but praise the Chinese point guard, "Although he looks thin, he is surprisingly strong and can maintain balance in the face of fierce confrontation." It's no secret how important it is to keep your body balanced when it comes to scoring goals. ”

"That German idiot...... At this time, jumping up is asking for yourself. "Carey in the audience. Owen looked old-fashioned and shook his head, "As a senior in the league, I really don't know how to evaluate his judgment." ”

"I heard you right, Kyrie, you want to criticize someone else's defense?!" Damian, who was sitting next to him. Lillard grinned disapprovingly, "I heard you just had that Chinese squash two pairs on your head two days ago?" ”

Owen's face darkened, and his eyes looked unkindly, but after a little thought, he laughed again: "I heard that you were cut down by that rookie before with 30+ large data?" Was it directly reversed? ”

Lillard's eyes lit up when he heard this, and it was really embarrassing for him to be led by a rookie to a comeback to win, especially for someone as competitive as him.

The two point guards stared at each other for a while, and then turned their frustrated gaze to the Chinese rookie in the arena. It's this guy's fault no matter how you think about this kind of thing! No problem!

"Listen to me, Carey, this kid is going to be a formidable enemy for us in the future......" Lillard gritted his teeth.

"There's no need to wait until later, he's ...... now," Carey said. Owen frowned.

"Otherwise, we'll strangle him in the cradle now......

"Makes sense, Damian, you go and poison his next Gatorade...... So I don't see that face that gives me a headache every time I play against the Heat......"

“…… Do you think it's Game of Thrones, man? ”

“…… Did you take what I said seriously, buddy? ”

The game lasted six or seven minutes, and the coaches of both sides did not call a timeout, but sat on the bench to watch the game with a relaxed and happy expression. The goalscoring efficiency of both sides has decreased, after all, the defensive intensity has been raised a notch, and it is no longer possible to take turns to perform violent dunks as in the opening period.

The official timeout came as Oladipo brushed Wiggins' defense and hit a mid-range jumper.

Gentry made a big five-up-five-down rotation to bring Elfrid to the table. Peyton, Zach. Lavin, Tress. Burke, Mason. Plumlee and Shabazz. Muhammad came on. On the other hand, the same is true for the international coach Atkinson, who will not have any control over the team's tactics in the first half, and the most important thing is that everyone is open on the pitch.

Addison scored just four points in seven minutes but registered six assists. This kind of defensive setting is no more than B-level at most, allowing him to play his passing ability, and he is competing with the best of the rookies, and his teammates are much easier to work with.

After the timeout, the game took a turn for the U.S. team, who only had Mason on the field. Plumlee is a decent interior lineman, and although Plumlee has good physical qualities, he is not a strong defensive center. And the international team is a Gorji. Dieng, a Joseph. Nukic dominated both ends of the floor.

And look at the backcourt configuration of the international team, Matthew. Dellavedova, Dante. Exum and Bogdanovic are not to be underestimated in terms of defensive strength. Dellavedova made two consecutive steals for Elfried. Payton's dribbling, and the Internationals both converted it into scoring opportunities.

Payton was speechless, obviously the first half was not over, why did the defensive intensity become so great? Judging from the performance of the international team, their level of competition is even better than that of the regular season!

——TMD！ Don't you know the rules?! Don't blame me for being unrighteous if you're unkind!

The U.S. team, which was provoked, also stepped up their game, and it turned out that the leaders of these rookies were also very terrifying once they got serious. However, the international team's on-field lineup at this time is indeed more hard than the opponent's, so they still maintain the lead.

***

"What's going on? How do I feel like I'm watching an important regular season game that is close to white-hot?! "Bill. Wharton rubbed his eyes, "The first half shouldn't have been played yet, right?" Have these lads started to compare with each other in real time?! ”

"It looks like this, look at their defense and offense, they have already begun to run tactics with a clear eye!" Drexler was also surprised, "I have a hunch, old man, this may be the lowest-scoring rookie challenge in 10 years!" They got serious too soon! ”

And at this time, Adam was sitting in the box of the stadium. Xiao Hua is full of smiles, he is very satisfied with the form on the court, what he wants is this sense of competition.

He had great respect for his predecessor, David. Stern, that old man really connected the competitive and entertaining aspects of the NBA. But in Xiao Hua's view, in the later stages of Stern's management of the league, the league was already too entertaining, especially in the All-Star game, where entertainment has greatly exceeded competition.

All he has to do now is to regain that sense of competition that he had lost, and splitting the rookie game into international and American teams is not a trick he has come up with in a casual manner, but a deliberate reform he has made. With a clear division of national camps, the smell of gunpowder on the pitch will naturally rise. When the smell of gunpowder is strong, it is impossible not to vividly manifest the competitive nature.

All-star is, of course, a commercial drama that entertains the world, but only the performance of the game, watching too much will make people feel tired.

"Addison, if I pair you with a basket protector, an interior blocker, two good wings, can you turn the score around at halftime?" Gentry, who had observed the situation on the court for a few minutes, walked up to the Chinese point guard, perhaps because of his penchant for running and shooting, and he was very fond of a point guard like Addison.

Addison looked at the rest of the time on the big screen, thought about the coach's request for the ball, and nodded calmly.

"Alright, get ready to play!" Gentry clapped his palms, turned his head and immediately asked the referee for a timeout. Now that the game has entered the regular stage, he has quickly put himself into the role of head coach.

Mason. Plumlee, Nolens. Noll, Pope, Oladipo and Addison, that's the lineup that Gentry has arranged. In fact, it's more of a lineup without a centre-forward, as both Plumlee and Knoll are more inclined to the number four position. But it's also a super mobile lineup, with all five players capable of counter-attacking quickly.

"Alvin's lineup is still his style, and this is indeed the most suitable lineup for running and shooting." Bill. Wharton couldn't help but laugh as soon as he looked at the five players on the field.

"Be careful with the international team, I wouldn't dare to boast about this lineup if it was driven by others, but with Addison as the point guard......" Drexler said as he made a 'self-inflicted' expression, "Their offensive firepower is absolutely terrifying!" ”

As if to confirm the statement of the 'glider', Addison took the basketball and immediately rushed to the front court! In the face of Dellavedova, who was not ready, he didn't do anything to make a fuss, and directly used Nolens. Knoll's cover rushed into the inside!

Joseph. Nukic ran out of the basket to block Addison, this guy obviously didn't have a Chinese point guard to play against, I don't know what the other side is best at......

Addison grabbed the basketball with both hands and made a slight arc in front of him, took a left foot to attract Nukic to move sideways, and then smashed the basketball to the floor in front of him with both hands!

The other side shook off Gorgy. Dieng's Mason. Plumlee quickly cut into the box, took the basketball and jumped to his feet! This white man with a strong physical fit pulled his arms up all over the place, and smashed the basketball into the net basket with a tomahawk-style chopping action that was difficult to make on the inside!

"Boom !!" The sound is loud and exciting!

The fans at the Barclays Center immediately cheered for the Nets' potential star! It's his home turf!
