Chapter 231 The unhappy knight twin stars soared up

In fact, the NBA's annual All-Star Game is, to put it bluntly, a show.

What the players need to do in this show is to show themselves perfectly and bring out the best in themselves.

At least one All-Star MVP is produced every year, but you may never see such a cute All-Star MVP again.

Because this year's Big Shark O'Neal set an insurmountable standard for that honor in Los Angeles: You play the ball the best, and your "show" needs to be the best.

In the whole game, Shark O'Neal performed a total of nine dunks, and he not only proved that he was the invincible giant in the league, but also proved that he was one of the best actors in the league when he grabbed the camera under the basket and combed his hair stupidly.

He also lifted the All-Star Most Valuable Player trophy as he wished.

After the game, major media in the United States also reported on the game.

The Associated Press said the East-West All-Star Game at Staples Stadium appeared to be a dunk show, with Duncan making steady free throws on the night to help the Western Stars win "at home."

In the article, the three people who performed extremely well in the Western Stars were also specifically mentioned.

O'Neal was named MVP with 24 points in 24 minutes of playing time, 18 of which came from dunks. A star of stars, a star of stars, we call him a superstar.

Kobe Bryant, another superstar of the Los Angeles Lakers. Today he scored 20 points on 9-of-12 shooting. He's destined to be extraordinary, and fans in Los Angeles love Kobe Bryant and O'Neal every time they score. The audience erupted in applause, and on this starry night, a large number of celebrities from the film and television industry gathered, and their arrival also added to the competition.

Duncan sealed the win at a critical moment, deserving to be a key killer and the cornerstone of the team.

The Associated Press also said that fans don't really care about winning or losing the game, they just want to enjoy basketball on this night.

Except for the Associated Press. In addition, ESPN Sports News Network said after the game that Tim. Duncan's free throw shot with 2.1 seconds left before the end of the game helped the Western Stars eventually win the All-Star Game for the third straight year.

O'Neal with a wonderful dunk. He scored 24 points in 24 minutes and was named the MVP of the game, and Kobe Bryant didn't play badly, although fans occasionally booed the Lakers star. But overall, the fans applauded the performance.

And "Fox Sports Network" said after the game that O'Neal has become a city hero in Los Angeles. Because he not only led the West to victory, but also won the MVP of the All-Star Game, which fully demonstrates the value of "Big Shark".

Finally, USA Today also said after the game that you can trust Duncan whether it's the regular season, the playoffs, or the All-Star Game. Duncan's jumper with 26 seconds left in the game, as well as a last-minute free throw, helped the West to a comeback victory over the Eastern Stars at Staples Arena.

Los Angeles city heroes Kobe Bryant and O'Neal also deserve credit for their performances today, with the latter being voted MVP of today's game. The West has won four of the last five All-Star games.

At the same time, we also look forward to the NBA being able to provide fans with a more exciting All-Star Game.

Day 2 of the All-Star Game. The entire U.S. was flooded with coverage of the All-Star Game, Kobe, O'Neal and Duncan to be exact.

As for Cao Jian and James and others, not to mention them, even the popular kings in the league, Maddie and Iverson have very few reports.

This is the reality, the winner is king, and if you win, then you will win the respect and love of everyone.

On the contrary, if you lose, who cares about you.

Of course, the wins and losses mentioned here are compared to the stars in the Eastern Region, as for Cao Jian and James, these young children, they can't talk about losing now, because they don't even have the most basic qualifications.

This is true for both James as the rookie champion and the Most Valuable Player in the Rookie Challenge.

They are also very aware of this, very clear, and that's why after the All-Star break, these two became silent.

Whether it's James or Cao Jian, it's the same.

Cao Jian usually doesn't talk a lot, and it's normal for him to be silent, but in his usual training, James, who has always talked a lot and loves to coax, has also become silent, which is a little abnormal.

Usually, James would show off his rap ability on the court between training, and constantly ridicule some people and things in the NBA, but after the All-Star Game, he didn't have that mind at all.

In between trainings, just take a break and practice immediately.

After training, it's heads-up.

Jeff was also abused indecently, losing every time, and before ten minutes were up, he lost more than 500 push-ups.

And Cao Jian's situation is similar to James.

For the abnormal behavior of Cao Jian and James, the Cavaliers players are also very puzzled, this is a Shenma situation, why are these two little guys so desperate.

This is the same as the first half of the season, but it is like two people.

In fact, it is not difficult to understand that these two people behaved like this.

Whether it is James and Cao Jian, they are all people with their own arrogance, this is what they have in common, the difference is that James showed it, but Cao Jian didn't show it.

In this year's All-Star Game, although they are all well-deserved protagonists in the All-Star Rookie Game, Cao Jian is still the absolute protagonist of the second day, but compared with the last day's events, these are insignificant.

Or rather, they became the foil of the All-Star Game.

Many people may tell them that they are still young and the future is yours.

But this bird language.

I don't know if others believe it. Cao Jian didn't believe it, and James wouldn't believe it.

They want this in the moment.

The future is too long to come and get. That's a matter of two words.

These words are just sour words for the weak to comfort themselves.

Cao Jian didn't need it, and similarly, James didn't need it.

What they need is, to be strong, to be strong. Grab the honor that belongs to you.

Be prepared to seize the opportunity when it comes again. Hold on to it.

That's why they train very hard, and that's why they have the usual situation.

Yes, Cao Jian and James. After the All-Star break. Actively training, the Cavaliers coach is also very appreciative, thinking: The future of the Cavaliers is promising.

To help them, Paul. Silas also arranged special tactical training for the two men. Silas is also looking forward to the second half of the All-Star schedule, which came early.

Now the main impact of the knights is so fast, it is really a waste to make good use of it.

Paul. The opportunity that Silas was waiting for. It also came very quickly.

After the All-Star break, the Cavaliers' first game against the Boston Celtics was against them.

About. Cao Jian is also looking forward to this game.

The reason is also very simple.

Before the All-Star break, the Celtics also caused a lot of trouble for his mission, causing him to almost fail to complete the mission, which is a point.

Another point, he wants to show his new skill "Butterfly Wears Flowers", since he learned this skill, Cao Jian has not really shown it in the competition?

Dealing with the Boston Celtics and showing it can not only achieve the goal of showing, but also revenge, why not?

The last point is that Cao Jian was stimulated and was in an unhappy mood, and he desperately needed to vent.

And venting is only possible in the middle of the game.

Prove yourself in the game, prove that he is also a star, the All-Star Game did not choose him, that is the most wrong choice.

In Cao Jian's expectations, after the All-Star Game, the Cleveland Cavaliers vs. the Boston Celtics also kicked off as scheduled.

The game was played on the home court of the Cavaliers.

The Celtics lost to the Cavaliers before the All-Star break, and their record also fell from eighth place in the East Conference to ninth place in the East Conference.

They are also eager to overturn the Cavaliers on their home court and finish eighth in the Eastern Conference.

Before the start of the Cavaliers' game against the Celtics, Rivers, the coach of the Boston Celtics, said in an interview: "We know that the Cavaliers can stand in the eighth place in the Eastern Conference, and they must have a reason. However, I think Celtic should be in that position. I'll show them tomorrow that we're going to win, and see. We'll find out tomorrow after the game. I forgot to tell you that I had found a way to limit them. ”

In the face of Rivers' rhetoric, many people in the Cavaliers didn't pay attention to it, including Cao Jian, but in the face of Rivers' provocation, James was the first to stand it and stood up and said: "Just let them come, this is our home field, I will never allow them to go wild here." ”

In order to boost the confidence of the Cavaliers, as the head coach of the Cleveland Cavaliers, Paul . Silas also stepped up and said: "It's going to be an exciting game, both sides are ready, but I don't think it's going to be easy for them to win. ”

Before the game, the verbal battle between the two sides also pushed the attention of the game to a new height.

The two sides are on the verge of a big battle.

This game has not changed much from the previous game, and the main lineups of the two sides have not changed.

On the Celtic side, the main lineup sent out is:

Small forward: Paul. pierce

Shooting Guard: Ricky. Davis

Center: Toney. Battier

Point Guard: Toney. Deck

Power Forward: Anthony. Walker

On the knight's side, it hasn't changed, it's still before,

Center: Big Z

Power forward: Boozer

Small forward: James

Shooting Guard: Erik

Point guard: Cao Jian

At the beginning of the game, the big z jump ball was successful, the first wave of the Cavaliers' offense, James had a strong momentum at the beginning, but the effect was not very good, straight to the basket, layup, and the basketball was off.

The Celtics grabbed the rebound and the counterattack began.

One opening. The Celtics also handed the ball to the interior and let the interior carry it hard. Walker beat Boozer hard.

2-0

Knight's side. It was James who attacked, and this time he still chose to go straight to the Celtics penalty area, and was caught in the bag, but it didn't work.

The rebound was still grabbed by the Celtics.

As soon as James started, he was anxious to prove himself and played in a bit of a hurry.

The Celtics caught the rebound, and the Cavaliers consciously stepped up their interior defense. Anthony. Walker was not in a hurry to attack on his own, and when he encountered a bag, he immediately shared the ball. Pierce has been lurking outside the three-point line for a long time, sharing the ball, receiving the ball, and controlling the rhythm very well.

Outside the three-point line. James defended very hard. However, little has been achieved.

Such a defense, for Pierce, who has found his rhythm, is the same as not.

Pierce made his hand from beyond the three-point line, and the ball landed steadily in the basket.

5-0

The Cavaliers got off to a bad start.

On the Cavaliers' side, it was still James who attacked, after the first two mistakes. James also made a conscious adjustment, after this breakthrough attracted the defense. It's also the choice of passing, and the ball is separated.

However, Eric didn't take the opportunity and didn't play for several days, and Eric's hand was not very good.

Celtic seized their chance and began to fight back.

The Cavaliers still did a very good job defensively, not giving the Celtics a chance to counterattack and falling into a positional battle.

At this time, it was Pierce who stood up, broke through, stepped back to shoot, and the defensive James was also covered by Pierce's face, but Pierce still steadily sent the ball into the basket, and there was a crisp sound of "shabu".

7-0

Paul. Seeing that the situation was not good, Silas also quickly asked for a timeout, but the Cavaliers made a mistake, James' pass was broken, and the Celtics launched a fast break.

It's Ricky who is on the fast break. Davis.

Back to his former employer, Ricky. Davis was also like a chicken.

The reason why he was so excited was not without reason, the fans in the stadium booed him before the game started, and the boos have not stopped until now.

This makes Ricky. Davis was extremely unhappy, so he wanted revenge.

All the way down, flying up, in the high-speed advance, he did not forget to look behind and found that there were no players chasing back.

He was also relieved, watching so many unhappy fans at the Cavaliers' home stadium and listening to the boos of so many people. Davis's eyes were also refracted with terrifying flames, and when he saw that he was not far from the basket, he bent his knees and kicked his body, his body jumped high, and at the same time, he roared, "Shut up!! ”

Flying in mid-air, Ricky. Davis looked at the basket at eye level, poured all his strength into his right arm, and slammed it into the basket that was close at hand.

"Bang Peng !!" There was a loud bang, and some fans in the front row of the scene were also shocked by his goal, and the scene that was full of boos just now became silent at this time.

And Ricky landed on the ground. After Davis saw this scene, he was even more arrogant, and he also put his palm in the shape of a horn and placed it in his ear, looking at him, as if he was saying to the fans,

Called. What are you calling! Didn't you just scream so loudly?

Of course, Cao Jian also saw all this, but he didn't react much, he was very calm, and walked to the front court to prepare to catch the ball.

Cao Jian, he didn't react much, for, Ricky. Davis's provocation was unimpressed, but Ricky. Davis's teasing is to see Cao Jian unpleasantly, or to find trouble with Cao Jian.

Out of the corner of his eye, he was also aiming at Cao Jian, who was coming towards him. Davis's eyes also flashed with gloom, and he retreated, he rushed towards Cao Jian, and when his body was next to Cao Jian, he also waved his elbow at Cao Jian's stomach. Davis wrote it down, and Cao Jian was also extremely uncomfortable.

I thought the referee's whistle would blow, but Ricky. Davis's move was extremely hidden, avoiding the referee's sight, and Cao Jian ate such a black elbow for nothing.

Cao Jian suffered a dumb loss.

Cao Jian didn't react just now, not because he confessed, but because he wanted to follow Paul. Silas tactics to go to the game.

However, just now, James failed to attack one after another, and the Cavaliers fell behind by 9 points, and Cao Jian couldn't bear it anymore after receiving such a heavy punch in vain.

He's not a soft persimmon.

Of course, white suffered Ricky . Davis's heavy punch, Cao Jian will not be angry enough to give him a hook.

If that's really the case. Then Cao Jian really lost.

On the basketball court, friction of this magnitude is still extremely common.

But. If, Cao Jian really stepped forward, Gan Liji. Davis, not to mention whether he can play or not, he will definitely be ejected, and in serious cases, he may even be banned.

It doesn't make any sense to go up and give him an uppercut.

But. This does not mean that Cao Jian has no means of revenge.

Moreover, want revenge. It's not just fists, it's okay to do it too.

Cao Jian dribbled from the backcourt and advanced to the frontcourt. Silas also walked to the referee's bench at this time. Look at the way he looks. As if requesting a pause.

Cao Jianma made a move to stop and, giving Paul. Silas gave me a reassuring look.

Looking at Cao Jian's movements, and his reassuring eyes, Paul. Silas also hesitated, but in the end, he still chose to believe Cao Jian, and he also returned to the bench.

And on the field. Cao Jian also continued to dribble and advance.

Past the middle circle, Ricky. Davis was also the first to come up. Defending Cao Jian, his eyes were full of provocation, and his mouth was still chattering, "Rookie." Does it hurt? ”

"I'll treat you well. this game. ”

Seeing that Cao Jian didn't speak, Ricky. Davis continued.

Cao Jian looked at Ricky. Davis's under-pumped appearance was also extremely disdainful, and he said lightly:

"Really? Don't regret it. ”

Saying that, Cao Jian moved very quickly, and took a straight step.

Last time I was abused so badly by Cao Jian, Ricky. After Davis went back, he watched Cao Jian's video less, and knew that whenever Cao Jian made such a move, he knew how to defend, and for this reason, he also practiced deliberately.

Hurriedly retreated and resisted Cao Jian's route.

Defending Cao Jian broke through, and really, such as Ricky. As Davis envisioned, Cao Jian was blocked and had to retreat.

Seeing Cao Jian retreating, Ricky. Davis's eyes lit up and he thought, "Then the next step must be a three-pointer."

Sure enough, Cao Jian also made a "shooting" action very cooperatively.

Ricky. Davis still believed it was true, and flew over, trying in vain to intercept Cao Jian, and he even fantasized about how to slap Cao Jian in his heart in order to get the effect of causing a sensation in the audience.

Come to think of it, Ricky. Davis smiled, like a flower.

However, in an instant, Cao Jian made him want to cry to death, and he was played with by Cao Jian like a puppet.

Cao Jian just shot the basketball, he didn't mean to shoot at all, Ricky. Davis was deceived and jumped, knowing that he had been deceived, his heart was full of anger, and he hurriedly chased back, but Cao Jian didn't give him this opportunity, only leaving him with a back.

Cao Jianjiang Ricky. After Davis passed, he went straight to the Celtic penalty area, and the way was unimpeded.

The Celtics still stick to the defensive strategy of the last game, defending Cao Jian's three-point shots, as well as passing, and letting Cao Jian do the rest at will.

Since Rivers is so kind and adopts such a defensive strategy against him, Cao Jian will naturally not be polite, go straight to Huanglong, and directly hand over the basket.

Cao Jian scored the first two points for the Cavaliers.

2-9

Seeing Cao Jian's performance, Paul on the bench. Silas, his heart is also a little fixed.

The Celtics attacked, the Cavaliers did a good job of defending this time, the Celtics wasted time, and still couldn't find an opportunity to attack, and the basketball went to Ricky. In the hands of Davis, Ricky. Davis was still a little anxious.

Ricky. Davis met Eric's defense and shot a three-pointer, but the ball was missing.

The Cavaliers rebounded the ball, Cao Jian asked for the ball in the past, controlled the rhythm, and dribbled steadily across the half court.

Cao Jian is still facing Ricky. Davis' defense, Ricky. Davis is still rampant, because, he was given by Cao Jian before, and this time he defended extremely hard, but this time he didn't dare to stick too tightly on defense, but his mouth was still very ugly, as if he had eaten,

"It just happened. Have the ability to do it again. ”

As soon as he finished speaking, Cao Jian moved again, step by step, a big stride, he was Cao Jian once just now, and this time he didn't dare to slack off in the slightest, so he quickly retreated, went back, and didn't give Cao Jian any room for breakthrough.

Ricky. Davis defended hard enough, stepped back sharply, and stumbled a little on his feet, but he didn't fall.

Seeing this, Cao Jian will pull and wait for Ricky. When Davis came back, he shot and accelerated again, and his speed was also increased to the extreme.

Ricky. Davis was frightened and hurriedly retreated, stumbling to the ground because his feet were too fast.

"Ho Ho Ho !!!" There was a loud bang from the fans at the scene, and some fans even pointed at Ricky. Davis giggled and was shaken to the ground by Ricky. Davis is like a circus clown, a laughing stock for everyone.

The fans were completely uplifted.

And Cao Jianhuang fell Ricky. Davis smashed the Yellow Dragon again and directly killed the Celtics penalty area, and Cao Jian once again got the opportunity to face the frame, went directly, or handed the basket, and the ball went in.

4-9

The knight's side also gradually opened up the situation.
