The rookie game is not very well positioned in All-Star Weekend, compared to Starlight, it is not as good as the All-Star game; It's not as good as the slam dunk contest; Compared to the technical content, it is not as good as the skill challenge.

However, people still like to watch it - the reason is very simple, if the All-Star Game is a big-name female star with gorgeous packaging, then the Rookie Challenge is the little girl next door: the former is exciting, but it is not guaranteed to appear a hibiscus, two Yang Er, and three jade phoenixes; Although the latter is green, it at least retains some purity.

The heart of the first-year team has to be Evans, and in Griffin's absence this season, he has relied on his perfect form to become the most powerful conquest of the best rookie.

He has made 47 appearances this season, all starts, averaging 20 per game. 3 points, 4. 8 rebounds, 5. 1 assist, 1. 6 steals and a whopping 46 shooting percentage. 0%。 At present, he is the king's team scoring champion, assist king, steal king, and free throw king, and he was cultivated as the team boss early.

In terms of stars and fame, there was only one Rose who could hold him down in the rookie game, but Rose didn't play in the rookie game.

This made Chamberlain very angry, Rose happened to be sitting next to him in a suit, he frowned and said: "Boy, I said, you know that I am the head coach, why don't you play the challenge, did you deliberately give me eye medicine?" ”

Rose smiled bitterly, his face always remained bitter melon, and he spread his hands helplessly and said: "You misunderstood, Z, when I made my statement, I didn't know you were the head coach." However, I estimate that even if I don't play, with Coach Z's coaching ability, I will definitely be able to lead the team to victory. ”

"You're telling the truth, even if Z can't do it, then won't there be me?" West said, holding his glasses.

"Pull it down, it's shameless." Chamberlain glared at him, then shouted, "GOGOGO! Boys, give it to me, give it to me! I want to win, you know? Victory! For the sake of victory, you must pay no price! ”

The starting lineup of the first year is Tyler Hansbrough, Blair, Cosby, Evans, Jennings, they have a bunch of excellent scoring machines on the outside, but there is a shortage of people on the inside, Hansbrough's selection is definitely a helpless move by the head coaches, and Blair can start, thanks to the fact that this team has no other inside players available.

Gasol Jr. is a fierce man who can roar twice in the face of Chamberlain, and in the face of Hansbro, he is arrogant and gives the racket to Curry with a flick of his hand.

Curry waved his hand to signal his teammates to pull away, and he shouted, "I heard that the other side is the second generation of AI? Your name is Jennings, right? Okay, I'll meet you and see how you resemble the AI. ”

Evans pushed Jennings away and said in a deep voice: "Brother, I'll deal with this guy, he seems to be very arrogant." ”

Jennings is a super left-handed point guard with a combination of speed, athleticism, solid technique, and perseverance.

Judging from past games, he has a natural understanding of offense, and really knows how to play the point guard position, which can both break through and create offensive opportunities for his teammates. His speed with the ball has reached a super high level, and it really has the flavor of AI.

In addition, he is energetic, a fighter and does not bow to anyone. With a tough personality and strong competitiveness, even though Evans is the most popular among the rookies in this class, Jennings is the first person to be the one when it comes to offense.

But his disadvantages are as obvious as his advantages, his defense is too unreliable, and he will cry against Curry, who has a high IQ and strong skills.

Evans, on the other hand, is a combination of offense and defense, known as the successor of the new generation of Penny Hardaway, and is very superstar-like.

Curry pushed into the front court and smiled, "You seem to be amazing, man, you think of yourself as the boss, don't you?" ”

Evans smiled proudly, Curry threw a long pass, and the ball slid straight into the hands of Gasol Jr. in the penalty area.

Gasol Jr. hit it hard, Hansbrough couldn't bear it, and he didn't defend seriously, after all, this is an All-Star, so Gasol Jr. opened with a layup.

The first-year offense is to look at Jennings, this guy is advancing fast, Morrow as a senior is suddenly like a sieve, Jennings suddenly stops and jumps after a continuous change of direction, and quickly shoots a counterattack.

The defensive intensity of both sides is not high at the beginning, All-Star, the point is still to play, you really have to play, there are forty games after the All-Star, and at that time there are games that you can play seriously.

Curry made a change of direction, he tested Evans' defensive intensity, and passed the ball to Morrow, who wanted revenge, and when he got the ball, he leaned Jennings, who couldn't help but take a half step back, and Moreau immediately pulled the ball across and charged.

Jennings followed, Love helped Morrow make a cover, and Westbrook rushed from the baseline to the penalty area, Moreau wanted to shoot himself, but when he saw Westbrook run out of space, he threw the ball up, and the latter's energetic calf muscles tightened, and he roared into the sky like a space shuttle, and the ball was a violent dunk.

Westbrook's attack power is very strong, many people say that the best 08 level 1 athletic power is Rose, but Chamberlain thinks it's Westbrook, this guy is always full of positive energy, like a cannonball, just a little bit.

The dunk landed, Westbrook spread his arms and ran forward like a big bird, Chamberlain applauded vigorously and roared: "Defense, damn rookie, hold your line for me!" ”

But this is not easy to say, Jennings's breakthrough is unpredictable and does not need cover, he lightly played Morrow dizzy. Chamberlain couldn't help but cover his eyes, he pointed at Westbrook and yelled, "Change the guard, boy, you go and stare at that bastard, give me a hard shot!" ”

Beasley laughed, "The rookies are not united, they should play the number three position, that's where the advantage is." ”

He's a small forward, so to say it, I want to see Moreau get blown up and then it's his turn to play.

Curry passed the ball to Gasol Jr., the first grade shrunk the defense, Gasol Jr. passed the ball to Love, who shot from beyond the three-point line, and as a result, Blair turned and grabbed the rebound, threw it to Jennings and shouted, "Damn, play slowly, I don't have a cruciate ligament!" ”

Without cruciate ligaments, the kneecap would have to bear more cushioning, otherwise how could Blair fall so far back? His physique, his technique, and his character, he should have entered the Little Green House.

Jennings' push was still at a high speed, this time waiting for his teammates for a while, and then passing the ball to Evans for the boss to play.

Evans' strong body slowly pushed inside, and after entering the three-point line, he suddenly accelerated his impact.

Curry went with Westbrook to wrap him up, and Evans saw the stitch and waved the ball to Blair on the inside.

Blair squeezed Lefu away with his strong and huge body, and after he caught the ball, he ran violently inside, like an angry rhinoceros, and little Gasol was stunned that he didn't dare to stop him - there would be a car accident! Let him just come up with a rushing dunk.

Chamberlain was so angry that he waved his hand to take a timeout, pulled Beasley and said, "Little rascal, you go up and fuck them for me!" Remember, make it hard! ”

"That's absolutely no problem at all." Beasley swears by the curse.

When the players got off the court, Chamberlain drew a circle on the penalty area of the tactical board and said: "The rookies rely on the outside, but the shooting never shoots dead, you let them shoot at will, but if they dare to enter this arc, they are never allowed to have a chance to shoot!" ”

Paused to return, the sophomore team obviously had the advantage of height and depth of the inside, seeing this monster smiled contemptuously and scolded: "What a shame on you!" ”

But the outside advantage of the first grade is enough to feel embarrassed by the lack of Rose's sophomore team, and Harden, who came off the bench Jennings, is also a breakthrough master, and the sophomore team cooperated with an accident, Lefou's pass was broken, Harden grabbed the ball and shook it****** began to run wildly, and made a layup with three twists and two twists.

This year's first-year students were a surprise as multiple guards came to the fore after a season-long show, with Jennings making a name for himself early in the regular season, scoring 55 points in a single game; Evans and Cosby the Israelis became the king's shining twin stars; It's a pity that the champion will be reimbursed, otherwise the second-grade team will really have to suffer.

Newborn calves are not afraid of tigers, and after taking a 10-7 lead at the beginning, the first-graders are more aggressive, and they don't take the seniors seriously at all.

Evans and Harden were the most eye-catching, and after four minutes of play, Evans broke through quickly, easily penetrated the crowd, and scored a layup to give the first-graders a six-point lead at 15-9.

Chamberlain was anxious, Curry smiled and beckoned to him, and then he hit two three-pointers in a row, and he simply cut off 6 points and equalized the score at once.

Then, after the two teams exchanged leads several times, Evans stepped up again to steal the spotlight, and after receiving a pass from Harden, he scored a dunk, and teammate Cosby also made a layup to give the first-year students a 21-19 lead.

There are a lot of sophomores outside players who keep shooting three-point shots, but except for Curry, the shooting percentage of others is not satisfactory.

With the help of the hot hand of the outside line, the first-graders gradually widened the gap. With 3:39 left in the first half, Evans teamed up with teammate Cosby to make a layup and drew a foul on Westbrook to score a 3-pointer with a free throw to give the first-year students a double-digit 55-45 advantage.

Gasol Jr. and Love felt faceless, and Chamberlain's expressionless face made them very unscored, and the two finally stopped playing tickets and showed the true skills of the Grizzlies and Timberwolves as the interior cores of the two teams.

First, Gasol Jr. scored two consecutive baskets, including an aerial relay dunk, and then Lefu caught the ball after blocking Curry in the high post, and also hit twice in a row, and finally recovered the score that he had lost before.

But at the end of the first half, the first-year students still took a 67-65 lead.

In the second half, Chamberlain, who was bent on attacking the inside, suddenly changed his tactics, and he asked the inside to help Curry cover in the high post, because Curry's three-point hand was very hot today.

After the opening, Gordon played the point guard, and he controlled the ball and passed it to Love after half court, who covered Curry at the top of the three-point line and passed the ball to Curry.

Curry held the ball and broke inside, but stepped back and made a three-point shot and hit!

Harden was blocked by Gasol Jr. for a layup, Beasley picked up the ball and launched a fast-break counterattack, Curry cooperated with him to the restricted area, and the first-year team was very mobile on the outside, and the defense was blocked in time. Seeing this, Curry immediately turned around and pulled out the three-point line, the first-year team did not change the defense in time, Beasley passed the ball out of the three-point line, Curry held the ball and shot, and the three points were like knives!

The rookies looked a little ugly, Evans was intent on defending Curry, to which Curry kept running, he ran past Beasley and Love in a row, Evans was blocked, and the first-year team had to switch defenses.

Against Blair's teammate, Curry had a way, a horizontal move and then a false shake to trick him away, and then Curry made another long-range shot, and the basketball went into the net again.

Three three-pointers in a row, plus two more three-pointers in the first half, Curry hit five three-pointers, which is only two from the 2003 All-Star Anthony's record of seven three-pointers, and the fans were immediately excited.

The first-year rookies were also arrogant, and Jennings responded with a three-pointer who also hit a shot.

Seeing this, Curry laughed, he waved his teammates to get out of the way, and in the face of Evans' defense, he took a deep breath, and he jumped two meters away from the three-point line.

Evans was fooled and jumped up, but Curry waited for him to jump back and pull the ball back to break through, and then another three-pointer at the top of the three-point line!

"Six!" Chamberlain didn't care about the tactics, he happily got up and raised his hands, made a 6 pose, and concentrated on counting the number of three-pointers for Curry.
