Chapter 314 MVP won
"Black Mamba, Black Mamba's crucial steal, what can this ball say? Dwight's carelessness is still LeBron's mistake, they didn't expect Bryant to appear in that place, there are fifteen seconds left, the West is only two points behind, the West has two options, play two points into overtime or choose three points, although three points are a bit risky, but for the West with Gu Fei, Bryant, Dirk three key moments big heart three points may be a good choice. Kenny Smith analyzes the game.
James walked to the bench with a cold face, he didn't expect to be stealed, and he complained to Howard in his heart but he couldn't express it.
Step-Brown beckoned everyone to stand together, "Defensive defense Gu and Bryant are the biggest threats, resolutely can't put three points, Dwight, Kevin, you two are responsible for the inside, if you are broken in, even if you foul, don't give a chance to add a free throw, LeBron, Dwyan, Danny, you three are responsible for outside defense, pay attention to breaking the cover ......"
Unlike Mike Brown, who doesn't have much in his mind and can only quickly deploy defensive tactics, Phil Jackson, the coach of the Western team, is very indifferent, "Bryant, you are responsible for attracting the defense, hand it over to Gu, if you choose three points, you can attack by yourself, if you choose two points, give it to Bryant, you will be responsible for attracting the defense, Dirk we need you to run back and forth from two forty-fives......"
When the referee blew the whistle, the final fifteen seconds of the game officially began, and who won and who lost was in this short fifteen seconds.
"Mike Brown replaced Allen and replaced Danny Granger It seems that he wants to use Danny's defensive ability to deal with the offense in the West, and Phil also made a substitution on the West side, and Mike Brown will not be in a hurry when he sees this lineup in the West, and four big heart players are on the court at the same time." Kenny Smith said as he looked at the lineups that came on in the final moments of both sides.
On the western side, Chauncey Billups was replaced, Duncan and Nowitzki were on the inside, and Gu Fei and Kobe Bryant were on the outside, and the power of such a lineup at critical moments was undoubted.
Duncan stood outside the front court and waited to serve, the five people in the east were eager to entangle the four people in the west one by one, after the referee handed the ball to Duncan and made a gesture to serve, everyone moved, and in an instant, the basketball court was like water about to boil, Gu Fei tried to shake off James's entanglement with a running position, but there was also Granger who completely opened his arms on the side, and the marking of the two people shattered Gu Fei's idea of running, and Kobe Bryant on the other side found a chance to run, But Duncan didn't put the ball in Kobe's hands for the first time, but to Nowitzki at the top of the arc.
Nowitzki didn't stop long before handing the ball to Kobe Bryant, who was close to him, and time was running out quickly.
After Kobe Bryant caught the ball, the defensive formation in the east immediately changed, Wade ran directly in front of Kobe, while Gu Fei stayed outside the three-point line not far from Kobe, Nowitzki stood on the inside, Billups went to the 45-degree three-point line on the other side, and the personnel in the West completely pulled away, so that the idea of the East wanting to carry out a package and clamp joint defense could not be implemented.
Instead of rushing to attack, he steadily protected the ball between his chest, abdomen and waist, waiting for the time to go eight seconds.
"The critical moment has come, can the east hold on?"
"Definitely not," Barkley said disdainfully, clearly confident that the West would be able to complete the victory.
When the time came to eight seconds, Kobe Bryant moved, and after a virtual shake, he rushed straight to Wade's weak side, and when Kobe moved, the defensive formation of the entire East was also changing, after all, no one dared to question Kobe's key ball ability, even if Gu Fei's three-point ability was much stronger.
And James, who had been thinking about victory in his heart, saw Kobe Bryant move and cut in from the middle of him and Wade, and couldn't help but put his attention on Kobe Bryant, Gu Fei has always grasped the change of defensive players very well, and Gu Fei himself doesn't know why it's like an instinct.
In James's eyes, Gu Fei, who has always been in order, moved, his right foot suddenly stepped towards James's left side, and while exerting force, the center of gravity of the body did not follow his right foot but changed to the right side, and while leaning forward and making contact with James's body, the left foot took a step back to the right, and then changed again, and the left foot was the axis, and a turn turned around, which temporarily threw James behind.
Gu Fei's whole action was done in one go, so that James felt that he had been thrown away by Gu Fei when he was preparing to defend, James could only completely retract his attention and chase Gu Fei with all his might, while Kobe Bryant seized the opportunity to cut inside.
"Defend him" Seeing that Kobe had broken through Wade's defense, James shouted and yelled, hoping that Howard and Garnett on the inside could help defend in place, while he himself continued to chase Gu Fei.
At this moment, Nowitzki, who was standing on the inside, also moved, just as Gu Fei made a mistake, Gu Fei continued to cut to the inside, and Nowitzki used Gu Fei to cut outside the three-point line, Gu Fei and James who was chasing Gu Fei just formed a cover, at this time James had to make a choice whether to choose to defend Nowitzki and throw away Gu Fei, or leave Nowitzki to continue to chase Gu Fei, time did not allow him to think too much, in the face of the principle of victory first, James still decided to put down Gu Fei and let his teammates defend.
"Beautiful tactical positioning, it's like interlocking, continuous running screens are really exciting," Barkley exclaimed, and it was true, the Western Running Tactics were on full play.
Garnett, who was blocked by Gu Fei and James, immediately chose to intercept Gu Fei, but this distance was naturally worse than his big man's reaction ability, and in the face of Garnett, who was close to make up for the defense, Gu Fei's body was shaky and immediately deceived Garnett's center of gravity, and Kobe, who cut into the arc with the ball, had already crossed the free throw line, Howard had to meet Kobe, and directly let Gu Fei successfully pass the basket and go straight to the diagonal bottom line, At 45 degrees, Billups came around the three-point line at the right time to the top of the arc and successfully took his defenders away.
There was an empty space in the bottom corner, and Gu Fei had already made an early pass before Kobe Bryant could raise his hand.
"Opportunity! In the bottom corner of the right side, Gu, Gu appears there"
At this moment, fans from all over the world held their breath, and the noisy American Airlines Center began to quiet down at this moment.
Looking at the flying basketball, Gu Fei stretched out his hands to greet him, the closest to him at this moment were Wade and Howard, but it was also three or four steps away from Gu Fei, and this distance was undoubtedly a huge vacancy opportunity for Gu Fei.
The time had come to the last two seconds, and after looking down at the three-point line, Gu Fei jumped up after looking at the basket.
This is not the first time he has thrown a key ball, nor is it the first time he has taken on such a heavy responsibility, there is no tension in his heart, but a feeling of letting go.
Looking at the basket in the distance, the body slowly reached the highest point, a short time in the air, the standard hand shape, the fingers flicked slightly, just like his millions of shots, the basketball left his fingers, and when the basketball flew more than a meter away from the fingers, the whistle sounded at the end of the game.
Gu Fei looked at the basketball that was flying higher and higher, and slowly clenched his fists.
All the fans who followed this game focused their eyes on the basketball flying in the air, and the basketball fell after reaching the highest point with Gu Fei's self-confidence.
Howard and Wade, who rushed in, were like two backdrops, and James silently thought in his mind not to enter, but the truth was not as he hoped.
swish
The crisp sound of wiping the net sounded, and the fans who watched the rippling white waves burst into huge cheers.
"Gu, Gu, Gu still did it, he is the star of the stars, lore, this is the most perfect ending, this is the best script, Hollywood can't make up such a script, LeBron may be good enough, Allen may be good enough, but Gu is the final winner, the West is the winner, the perfect match of the last ball is enough to go down in history, Phil Jackson once again proved his coaching level. This victory belongs to every player in the West. Kenny Smith's tone was quite steady, while Barkley on the side was doing everything possible to use the best words on Gu Fei.
In addition to resentment in James's eyes, he was unwilling, this was originally a perfect performance that belonged to him, but now it was destroyed by Gu Fei, who he hated the most, and the victory declaration before the game became a joke, and James walked towards the player tunnel with a cold face.
"If you can't make it, I'll let you know what life is better than death." Kobe Bryant glared at Gu Fei and said coldly.
"Don't enter? How can it be. Gu Fei said with a smile.
35 points This is Gu Fei's score in this game, and it is also the highest score in the West, in addition to Gu Fei, the highest in the West is the 22 points of Stoudemire, one of the hosts, obviously this data cannot be compared with Gu Fei, and in the second half of the game, the only one in the West who is still a normal performance is Gu Fei, Gu Fei won the All-Star Game Most Valuable Player is a foregone conclusion, when David Stern stood on the podium and announced that Gu Fei was the Most Valuable Player, there were huge cheers at the scene.
The 2008-2009 Phoenix All-Star Weekend also officially ended, and Gu Fei is undoubtedly the most dazzling Phoenix All-Star Weekend, with six honors and an unprecedented record.
After the All-Star break, the regular season schedule has officially entered the time to sprint to the playoffs, and the teams that hope to enter the playoff season have started the final sprint, while the teams with no hope have begun their own swing journey.
When the time came to March 10, the Los Angeles Clippers defeated the visiting Wizards at home and won the 55th win of the season, at this time the Warriors, who were ninth in the West, won 36 wins, and the Clippers and Warriors both had 15 games left, and the record between the Clippers and the Warriors this season was 3:1, so even if the Clippers lost the remaining 15 games, they would advance to the playoffs, and the Los Angeles Clippers became the first team to lock up a playoff spot, And the Clippers aren't complacent, because their goals are much more than that.
