Chapter Seventy-Two: Iverson's Actions (Asking for Subscriptions, Rewards)
Seven minutes is indeed a certain number of points for the All-Star team, and the score is also not low, otherwise how can it be counted as an All-Star Game?
The west should hold the score difference to the death and prevent the east from pulling away further, which is what the west has to do at present, and don't think so much about reversing the situation and overtaking the score for the time being. After all, chasing back the difference is what they need to do, and it is the most critical thing at the moment.
Although I am very worried about Paul's state, but they must play better in the next period without Paul, although there are point guards such as Billups on the point guard line, but they are not as good as Paul, ** Vicky also wants Paul to calm down and find the real Paul again.
The game quickly resumed, with players from both sides taking on the pitch one by one.
Billups controlled the ball, and directly faced Rondo one-on-one at halftime, Billups was also very good in defense, otherwise the Pistons would never have won the championship that year, all of this is closely linked to Billups, is the Finals MVP not for nothing?
Billups can be described as all-rounded, both in terms of jump shots and breakouts, and there is naturally no doubt about the organization of the team, he is already known for his organization. In addition to these, his own defensive ability cannot be forgotten, no matter when, no matter who the opponent is, he will defend this player wholeheartedly, trying to make him very uncomfortable.
At half-time, Billups glanced at Rondo and then turned his attention to his team-mate, who was about to start organizing and directing the team. He wanted to pass the ball directly to Kobe Bryant at half court, but seeing that his position was not so well timed, he dispelled this idea and continued to organize the team's offense.
"Ball" Maddie ran out from the side and shouted directly, at this time his position was in a short vacancy, such an opportunity is undoubtedly rare, so the look on his face at this time was anxious, because he hoped that the other party could pass the ball to him quickly, otherwise there might not be such a good opportunity in the next second, so how could he not be in a hurry.
Billups naturally heard it, so after taking a look at Maddie, he immediately passed the ball in his hand, and after passing the ball, he ran directly, and he was also very good at running without the ball, and he was still very accurate in grasping the opportunity to open the position.
Maddie, who ran out from the side to receive the ball, directly turned around and adjusted his body, adjusted his body, and then directly pulled up and threw the basketball in his hand.
Brush, Maddie's three-point hit again, Maddie has shot very little so far in this game, but it is still very good in terms of shooting percentage, the game has played so far, Maddie has made a total of seven shots, hit five of them, and scored a total of thirteen points for the team, and the two times he didn't score because he was covered by James, otherwise the shooting rate may be 100%.
With this three-pointer, the West chased the score by three points, and came back after a timeout to hit a three-pointer, which is undoubtedly a very good signal for the West, will it be a signal for a big counterattack?
"This guy just likes to pull out so much, but the hit rate is still so accurate." James was in the audience, and after seeing Maddie's dry shot, he said directly. There was a hint of helplessness hidden in his tone.
Huang Jun naturally heard James's words, but he didn't reply or anything, but smiled and nodded to show that he agreed with his words, and then directly continued to enjoy the game that continued on the field.
Rondo holds the ball, and Garnett came to a simple block, and then accelerated with the ball and rushed towards the inside, Billups has no advantage in speed at all, his speed is not fast in his old body, and he may be able to catch up at his peak, but at this time, he really has no choice, he can only watch the other party kill the basket, and he can't do anything.
This feeling made him very uncomfortable and very helpless, alas, he couldn't accept the old age. sighed deeply, and then said softly, "I hope those two guys on the inside can defend this kid, otherwise you can only watch him score." ”
No one heard Billups's words, but even if they didn't hear his words, Yao Ming and Duncan naturally knew what they had to do, Duncan took a step forward directly, and was ready to make up for the defense in advance, as long as Rondo dared to hit the basket, then he would definitely let him see what the league's No. 1 front was.
Thinking of this, Duncan's very serious face, which was already unsmiling, suddenly added a hint of determination, coupled with that unsmiling face, it was like a serious law enforcer looking at a plain, which made people shudder.
Just when Rondo was still a little distance away from Duncan, he played a behind-the-back pass directly in front of Duncan, which was completed directly in front of Duncan, as if to provoke him, and then Duncan's face did not change color, but he just moved his hand to try to pass the ball to the next, and then passed by him and almost hit the ball. In the end, he passed by, and turned to look at Rondo's not very handsome face, at this time he was very calm, as if he had expected that he would not succeed.
"This kid, this computing ability is really terrifying, and he calculates everything so accurately, he really deserves to be the core player of the future team that the Celtics are optimistic about" Duncan looked at Rondo, who did not change his face, and said in his heart. In his opinion, Rondo is indeed very good, and his passing skills are really extraordinary, but compared with Huang Jun, he still knows that there is a little gap between the two.
The ball was passed directly to Howard, who had just cut into the hands of Howard, who had just cut into the inside, and after playing for so long in the second quarter, this was the first time that the two had cooperated, and there was no cooperation before, making it seem that the two had no tacit understanding, and they had not been able to integrate together and work hard for the team's victory or something.
Howard, who received the ball, took advantage of the situation and came to a violent dunk, a very wonderful two-handed basket violent dunk, which made the scene cheer slightly, the cheers were not loud, but there were still there, and the monster was still very satisfied with this, and there was no dissatisfaction or anything because of the whispering of the fans' cheers.
This is Howard's second dunk in this game, the first is an open catch with James, and the second is a perfectly coordinated dunk, two dunks cost Howard three thousand dollars, but such a small number, he naturally doesn't look at it, so he just grinned lightly at it.
Then the contest between Billups and Rondo officially began, no matter how the two sides fought, the score always climbed up and down a little bit, no one was pulled down, and in the last minute of the second quarter, the difference between the two sides was still between six and nine points, there was no intention of pulling away at all, and there was no real pursuit or reversal of the situation or anything, or the same situation just now, which made many fans feel very incredible.
"It seems that this game, if you want to end, it's not ordinary" Huang Jun looked at the score on the field and said lightly.
James, who was beside him, took a deep look at the players on the court at this time, and then said, "Huang Jun, don't you want to play and compete for the MVP of the All-Star Game?" After speaking, James's eyes did not turn and looked at Huang Jun seriously, wanting to see if he had deceived himself, he didn't like the feeling of being deceived.
"I think, I don't just want this, I also want to get the MVP of the regular season in my hands, and at the same time win the championship, this is what I want" Huang Jun said with a smile, the smile on his face made people feel happy in their hearts.
There are a few people who dare to say such things, such dreams, and how great courage it takes to know such words. Huang Jun's words, James didn't have any exclamation or anything, as if he had expected it a long time ago, and then said, "What about the MVP of the championship?" ”
Huang Jun's heart kicked for a moment, obviously frightened by James's words, he looked at James in puzzlement, and saw James looking at himself very seriously, so he had to say helplessly, "I want to too, but I know that this award is yours" Huang Jun didn't want to debate this with James, and turned to look at the field directly when he spoke. This game is what he needs to care about.
Then until the end of the first half of the game, the two did not speak again, nor did they get any chance to play, the All-Star Game so far they have played a total of 12 minutes of play, and the bench has also been allocated 12 minutes of game time, which is still very good, the current East can really be described as offensive and defensible, the lineup is very perfect.
At halftime, the East was 75-68, with a quasi-Celtics lineup against the Western All-Star starters, and it was already very good to have such a result, and now they all hope that Paul can find his confidence as soon as possible and not continue to slump.
Iverson, who was sitting on the bench, also stood up at this time, and everyone was ready to go back to the locker room, so this action was very normal, but everything that followed was abnormal, and it was very intriguing.
I saw Iverson, who stood up, walking directly towards Huang Jun and James in front of him, obviously going to find the two.
Rondo and Pierce Garnett and other Celtic players in the back saw this scene, and Rondo directly said, "Let's go, go up and have a look" After speaking, Rondo took the lead and walked towards Iverson and the others, and then Ray Allen and the other three followed.
The three of them looked at Rondo, and said helplessly in the back, "What a person who likes to gossip."
