Hearing DJ shouting to himself, Tang Shuai walked out of the passage. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info

The spotlight hit him, and the fans burst into cheers, louder than anyone who had appeared before.

This is not the first time he has played in an All-Star, compared to the last time, he seems much calmer, after reaching out to the audience, he then walked down the aisle to the court, reaching out and clapping with the audience next to him.

"Don, I love you!"

"Don, you're an MVP!"

……

Along the way, he could hear the excited shouts of many fans, and he couldn't help but feel a little fluctuating in his heart, and to be honest, the welcome he received in New Orleans was not much worse than that in Los Angeles.

When he was about to arrive, there was already the voice of DJ introducing Wade behind him, he looked back, turned around and walked to the field, clapped hands with his teammates one by one, and he followed to the back of the line.

After Durant, James's appearance set off another round of climax, but it was not until Curry's appearance that it really detonated the scene, and only this wave overshadowed Tang Shuai.

Curry's popularity accumulated in the West in the past two years can be said to be faintly a trend of a new generation of league spokespersons.

After the players were introduced, the opening ceremony came to an end, and the players greeted each other before moving to the opposite end of the pitch.

On the side of the Western Army, Thibodeau was already standing there waiting.

The Timberwolves are now in second place in the West, and Kerr has coached All-Star stars before, so this time the head coach is him.

Thibodeau has a big belly, and he looks a little bit like a middle-aged Chinese man.

Although Thibodeau is a bit old-fashioned, but when it came to the All-Star Game, he also deliberately restrained his personality, and even didn't take the tactical board, and when the players arrived, he arranged a few simple blocking and dismantling tactics, and emphasized the defense again, and then signaled that the players could go to warm up.

After another two minutes, the referee was finished, and the starters on either side walked to the center of the field, and the others began to walk back to the bench and take their seats.

Unlike last year, Downs became the starting center for the Western team this year, and his selection also avoided the embarrassment of starting without a center player for two consecutive years, and he will jump the ball for the Western team.

It was James who jumped the ball on the side of the East Army, and a small forward and a center jumped up, and the two of them stood there, which immediately caused a burst of laughter from the fans.

The referee walked to the centre of the field with the ball, motioned to James and Downs, and then threw the ball into the air.

James jumped first, but Downs was tall and long-armed, so he flung the ball back to the backcourt of the Western team after James touched the ball.

The Western Pair gets the chance to attack first!

Westbrook received the ball and then went straight forward with the ball.

The tactics have a two-point guard tactic, but now the Western Army has three point guards playing at the same time.

Although this new voting rule of the NBA distinguishes between the front and back courts, for most fans, it has no effect at all, and Kobe Bryant last year and Westbrook this year are real guards.

After Westbrook advanced to the frontcourt, he didn't pass the ball, beckoned Downs to make a block, and after the pickup, it was directly a trademark straight up and down dry pull.

Although the posture is not good-looking, the hit rate is really good, and the two points are firmly in hand.

Turning around, the East troops attacked, Irving held the ball to the frontcourt, played an "in-team" cooperation with James, passed the ball back to James, and James also pulled out a dry shot, and also scored two points.

This side sent the ball, Curry went to the frontcourt, broke through the ball and then gave it to Westbrook, Westbrook faced George, and directly pulled out a three-point face. Shoot.

From the start, Westbrook showed a strong desire to score.

"Bang!"

With a muffled thud, his three-pointer popped out of the basket.

The rebound was grabbed by Anthony, the East troops took advantage of the reactionary fast attack, Wade held the ball and advanced quickly, saw the opportunity, and a long pass of the half court to James who was fast, James received the ball and stepped three steps slowly, squeezed Durant and smashed the ball into the basket.

There was a burst of excited cheers from the scene, and the long-lost Jenway connection was staged again at the All-Star Game, and it was less than 2 minutes into the opening game.

The Western team's offense, after Curry held the ball to the frontcourt, he gave the ball to Tang Shuai, Tang Shuai gave it to Durant, and Durant directly stepped back to shoot.

Prevent his Anthony symbolic interference.

"Huh!"

Durant is the one with his own dry pick, and he is tall and has long arms, so this kind of defensive intensity can't interfere with him at all.

The Cavaliers' offense, Irving broke through and gave it to Anthony, Anthony raised his hand to hit a 3-pointer, and the two familiar two in the Olympics also cooperated tacitly at the All-Star Game.

7 to 4, the Eastern Army changed the trend of falling behind at the beginning of the previous day, and had the meaning of winning the game.

On the Western side, Curry held the ball to the frontcourt, still looking for Durant, and Durant's shot hit again.

When James' three-point shot was hit, Westbrook grabbed the rebound and launched a fast break, and Curry followed up on the right.

2 to 1 at full-time, a great opportunity to appear.

However, Westbrook did not choose to pass, completely ignoring Curry, and directly chose to be strong, causing George's defensive foul.

Curry is just a stall, but a very subtle detail conveys a lot of meaning.

This is also the epitome of the first half of the first quarter of the game, basically Westbrook and Durant are grabbing shots, Curry is responsible for passing, and as for Tang Shuai and Towns, the two of them are forced to be spectators.

However, this result was not good, this side took turns to do strong, and the eastern troops fought well and firmly occupied the initiative on the field.

Thibodeau frowned on the sidelines, he was not stupid, the little Jiujiu inside was touched by him at once, he didn't hesitate, turned around and beckoned to Leonard and Anthony Davis behind him, and directly replaced Durant and Westbrook.

Although it is an All-Star Game, he is neither the head coach of the Warriors, nor has anything to do with the Thunder, and there is no face or anything at all.

Davis's appearance drew cheers from the fans at the scene, and no one paid attention to these details on the field.

But just when the two of them were leaving, Tang Shuai noticed that Tang Si glanced at him, and his eyes seemed to be saying that the two masters had finally gone down.

He smiled, then turned to defend.

The offense of the Eastern team, James burst to Anthony, Anthony crossed his steps to shake Leonard, Leonard was unmoved, he followed a step back to shoot, Leonard bullied, and his strong throw came out of the frame.

The rebound was snatched by Davis, and then he carried the ball forward.

Tang Shuai followed up from the left at this time.

Amid the cheers of the fans at the scene, Davis held the ball and quickly attacked the frontcourt.

James didn't let Davis go to the basket, he glanced back and saw Tang Shuai, who was following up, did not choose to pass, but used his body to squeeze away the layup.

James was a big man, he didn't squeeze out completely, and the shot that was interfered with finally crossed the basket and was grabbed by James back.

James played a fast break after holding the ball, and cooperated with George, George had a chance to make a layup, but he still squeezed away Downs in front of him, and returned the ball to James who followed up, and James won the dunk after he got up.

George turned around and gave James a high-five.

The Western troops attacked again, Tang Shuai ran out of position, but Curry gave the ball to Davis, who was cutting in the air, Davis originally wanted to dunk one, but James blocked it, and he actually dunked the ball directly.

Looking back, Anthony burst into the bag and then gave it to James again, and James caught the ball under the basket and shook off Downs to score.

The Eastern Troops continued to pull the score.

During this period of time, Tang Shuai also discovered a trend.

Because of Durant and Westbrook, the Western team opened with a separate rhythm, which allowed the Eastern team to take the lead at the beginning, and this advantage lasted for more than half a quarter, which also gave them hope of winning.

And this hope gave birth to another very delicate thing.

Because of the pattern of the West being strong and the East weak, in the All-Star Game, the West Army also defeated the East Army, as the spokesperson of the league, James won 4 regular season MVPs in his 13-year career, but only two All-Star Game MVPs.

Most of the time, it was James who had the best statistics in the game, but the Eastern team lost in the end, this situation not only made James himself regretful, but also these players of the Eastern team felt very sorry, and after seeing the hope of winning, they naturally wanted to "do" an MVP for James.

"Bang!"

James scored his 10th point on the counterattack and scored his 10th point, and also helped the Eastern team stretch the score to 30-19, which was the largest lead in the first quarter of the Eastern team in recent years.

Thibodeau called a timeout, and after explaining some of James' mark-to-man defense to the players on the bench, he went on to replace Don Shuai and Towns with Harden and Thompson.

Leonard faced James, although neither side did their best, but still limited James's scoring, the West team took advantage of the momentum and began to chase points, Harden and Thompson each hit a three-pointer, the West team chased the score to 36-42 before the end of the first quarter.

Back in the second quarter, there were frequent substitutions on both sides.

What is unpredictable is that Thibodeau doesn't know what is going on in his head, and he once again sent Durant and Westbrook on the court at the same time.

The two sat off the court for most of the quarter, and did not grab points like in the first quarter, but they still didn't look at each other, and there were several opportunities not to pass to each other.

Although the West is strong and the East is weak, the strength of the Eastern All-Stars is not much weaker than that of the Western All-Stars, and they seized the opportunity to quickly stretch the score to double digits.

After more than three minutes in the second quarter, the lead of the Eastern team had come to 15 points, and it was only at this time that Thibodeau seemed to be dead set on the two of them playing at the same time, turned around and greeted Tang Shuai, and asked him to come on the court to replace Durant.

Unlike at the beginning, this time Tang Shuai played directly in the position of point guard, he advanced to the front court with the ball, and did not choose to go alone, but reached out to signal Davis to come out to block and dismantle, and after dismantling the ball, a return pass was given to Davis, and Davis hit a one-step jumper inside the three-point line.
