Chapter 695: Annual All-Star

The final list of the All-Star Game was finally released, and West won the appreciation of the head coaches with his tenacious fighting spirit and crazy firepower, and finally made it to the All-Star.

The seven substitutes for the Western Conference All-Stars are: West, Chris Paul, Jr., Durant, Nowitzki, Randolph, and Deron Williams, and these seven were successfully selected to catch the last train of the All-Star Game.

West's selection is hard for many to accept, and the Warriors once again have three All-Stars, so how does this make other teams mix? In this way, can we still have fun together in the future? Deron Williams was on the verge of crying, he was the most likely All-Star this season, only to be topped off by West.

As the absolute core of the Jazz team, Delon does qualify as an All-Star, averaging 18 jù per game over the past two years. 8 points 10. 5 assists and 19. 4 points and 10. With 7 assists, he has long been among the top point guards in the league. And this season, Delong is also stable, averaging 19 points and 9 points per game. 5 assists.

But the managers appreciate West more, believing that his average of 18+8+6 per game is more realistic. Clippers head coach Dunleavy said in an interview: "Delonte West is great, if he is on our team and we have him at the core, he can average 30+5+5 per game!"

Paul's popularity as DeLong's classmate is much higher, which helps him, otherwise he would have been squeezed out by West.

The Hornets are averaging 20 per game this season. 5 points and 11. 1 assist, shooting rate of more than 50%, maintaining a "20+10" score for three consecutive years, he will form the most powerful point guard lineup with Nash and Delon.

Smalls was selected as an All-Star, which is worthy of his name, except for facing Chamberlain, he has always been super fierce, and now the appearance of Oden obscures his brilliance, otherwise he will average 20+10 per game.

Durant finally made it to the All-Star level, and is currently averaging 34 per game. With three points, he tops the league's scoring charts and is likely to win the scoring title this season.

Moreover, Durant has led the Thunder to an impressive record this season, and his all-round offensive skills and brilliant dunks are likely to make Durant one of the protagonists of the All-Star Game soon, even though this is his first All-Star Game selection.

With Dallas as the host city, the selection of Nowitzki, the team's core, is undisputed, and his number jù and on-court table are convincing enough, averaging 25 per game. 2 points and 7. Nine rebounds led the Mavericks to a 30-15 record, second only to the Lakers and Nuggets in the West.

Randolph's selection has left many jaw-dropping, but the Grizzlies have unexpectedly risen this season, and Randolph's appearance is one of the main reasons, averaging 20 per game. 9 points and 11. 5 rebounds, undoubtedly the league's top interior number, and without the previous solo and lazy style of play, he looks more and more terrifying, and All-Star qualification is the best reward for him.

Roy's selection as an All-Star was a comfort to the Trail Blazers in the league.

The Trail Blazers were tragic, sitting on a new generation of superpower center Oden who was sent away, but fortunately because they had Roy.

With no help on the inside, Roy carried the team, averaging 23 per game. 1 point, 5 assists and 4. Five rebounds, showing off the style of the second-best scoring guard in the West, while the troubled Trail Blazers are still in the top six.

So why didn't Roy end up on the All-Star list, but Delon who was previously undrafted was on the list? That's because, at the end of January, Roy was injured! Hapless Trailblazer!

Delon was fortunate to be an All-Star.

The list is mostly young, and as many as seven of them are making the All-Star team for the first time. And in the Eastern Conference All-Star lineup, the Celtics emerged as the big winners, with Pierce and Rondo both selected, and Bobcats leader Gerard Wallace, Bulls' Derrick Rose and the Hawks' Al Horford all selected for the first time.

The Eastern Conference All-Star bench lineup is: Paul Pierce (Celtics), Rondo (Celtics), Bosh (Raptors), Gerald Wallace (Bobcats), Carmelo Anthony (Nuggets), Al Horford (Hawks), Derrick Rose (Bulls).

In the last three seasons of All-Star, the Celtics are the biggest winner after the Warriors, and the "Big Three" have been selected in the first two All-Star games.

Despite Ray Allen's exit this year, the young Rondo has grown up quickly, averaging 14 per game this season. 2 points 9. 7 assists 4. 2 rebounds and 2. 5 steals, such a good and well-rounded table, also allowed him to finally get an All-Star ticket.

In fact, in the general lack of star point guards in the East, Rondo's table this season can even become an All-Star starter. He can only complain that James suddenly changed to a shooting guard instead of a small forward, and if James continues to run as a forward, then Rondo will be a well-deserved All-Star starting point guard in the East.

James is indeed very smart, he saw that Garnett was healthy and playing bravely this season, and decisively switched to become a small forward, because he was very jealous of Yi Jianlian's Chinese background.

In fact, this is a bit unreasonable, Yi Jianlian and Garnett are not as many as him in the All-Star vote, and their popularity is much worse than him, it can only be said that some people are born with a lack of ambition and courage to compete.

The Bobcats are the biggest dark horses in the East and even the league this season, and after making significant progress last season, almost making the playoffs, this season under the leadership of "Elvis" Gerard Wallace, although they only started with a 3-9 record, but they quickly found the feeling of winning, and now have a 22-22 record and are in eighth place in the East, and it will not be difficult for them to enter the playoffs with the current momentum.

And the biggest contributor to the Bobcats' progress is undoubtedly the all-around Gerard Wallace, a player who has been inactive in the first few seasons of his career, averaging 18 per game this season. 6 points, 11 rebounds, 1. 6 steals 1. 2 caps.

Rashid's selection was based on the team's record, and Rose was a bit of a fluke, if the All-Star bench had been announced a month earlier, Derrick Rose, the No. 1 in '08, would definitely not have been selected, the Bulls were a mess at the time, and the coach was also in rumors of a dismissal.

However, in the last month or so, Derrick Rose and the Bulls have suddenly been reborn, and they have completely shaken off the slump at the beginning of the season and have now risen to seventh place in the East.

And it is with his personal and the team's outstanding performance in recent times that Derrick Rose has completed self-redemption and was selected to the All-Star team, and he also became the first Bulls player to be selected as an All-Star since Jordan.

The selection of the Hawks' Al Horford was a bit of a surprise, averaging 13 per game this season. 8 points and 9. Eight rebounds is not the core player of the team, and the number of players such as David Lee is more vivid in this position.

However, the Hawks' excellent record has added weight to Horford's selection, especially the confrontation with Chamberlain, which has made many head coaches shine.

The other selected players, Pierce, Bosh, and Joe Johnson are already All-Star regulars, they are the leaders of their respective teams, and they have all achieved good results, and the selection of these three is well deserved, and there is not much suspense.

Before the All-Star break, the Warriors were left with two opponents, the Spurs and the Rockets.

The Spurs' absolute strong enemy is also a big enemy, and the hatred between the two sides is really deeper than the sea.

As soon as the game opened, Parker showed a strong desire to attack, hitting three consecutive jumpers to lead the Spurs to a 9-0 start.

But the Warriors were not far behind, because Curry, who got the chance to start with Billups, was very excited, and he stepped up and hit three three-point shots in a row, killing the Spurs with a faceless face - the opening three consecutive three-pointers, Curry's heavy artillery was too terrifying.

Although Parker hit another shot, Chamberlain and Iverson took turns to hit layups, and the Warriors launched a 12-2 counterattack to overtake the score.

Popovich had to call a timeout, only to come back when Iverson stole Ginobili's pass and scored on a jumper.

Subsequently, the Spurs' big three responded, with Duncan, Ginobili and Parker performing together to play the Spurs' toughness and overtake the score.

The Warriors narrowed the gap to two points at one point in the late quarter, but the Spurs once again played a small surge to open the gap. Before the end of the first quarter, West came off the bench and hit a buzzer-beating three-pointer to give the Lakers a 28-34 deficit trail over the Spurs.

In the second quarter, West was still on the court and had a great hand, and consecutive jumpers led the Warriors to an 8-0 spurt to take the lead, and the Spurs missed all four shots in the first four of the quarter.

Then the scores of the two sides alternated, and Spurs head coach Popovich frequently switched lineups to find the best configuration, and soon the Spurs rebounded and regained a three-point lead.

With both sides doing their best to defend, it became extremely difficult for both teams to score, and only Chamberlain scored two points from free throws for more than two minutes, and the situation on the court became a little ugly.

Chamberlain's hook shot helped the Warriors take the lead, and Parker immediately hit a layup. At the end of the first half, the Warriors, who had a better offense, led the Spurs 50-47.

Shortly after the start of the third quarter, Duncan's mid-range shot helped the Spurs chase the score to just one point. But then West hit consecutive shots and combined with Chamberlain to play a 7-0 spurt for the Warriors to widen the difference.

In addition, the Warriors' strong defense allowed the Spurs to have three turnovers before the halfway point of the quarter, and Chamberlain had already cut a double-double.

Duncan hit a jumper and Chamberlain immediately dunked to give the Warriors an 11-point lead with just over three minutes left in the quarter. Not to be outdone, the Spurs chased six points in a row, and West made a timely layup to hit a three-pointer to contain the counterattack. At the end of the third quarter, the Warriors held the lead 73-68.

The Spurs were still in poor form in the final quarter, and Ginobili's layup was blocked by Chamberlain, and the Warriors quickly extended their lead to eight points. George Hill was then fouled by West in a series of seconds, and the Warriors replaced Chamberlain in just over three minutes of the game, sending the game into garbage time.

The current Rockets are well-deserved fish belly, without Yao Mai, who built and who abused, but the Warriors and the Rockets have always been brother teams, every time they play, no matter who wins or loses, there is not much difference in the score, but this game is evil, and the Rockets are stunned to die by themselves.

In the first quarter of the game, Chamberlain took the lead in the middle of the shot, Hayes turned and made a backhand layup, Brooks counterattacked and made a pull-up jumper, Iverson fouled offensively, and Brooks caused Curry to foul twice in a row at the point guard position, and it seemed that the Rockets had a good momentum in this game.

But then it was very bad, the Warriors' defensive rhythm suddenly strengthened, the Rockets lost their crosshairs, and the Warriors actually played a 15-1 offensive climax, and even the Warriors themselves were shocked.

In the second quarter, the Rockets' offensive firepower recovered a little, but they began to make mistakes again, sending a terrifying 10 mistakes in a single quarter, Yao Ming, who was watching the battle in a suit, had a blue face and couldn't say anything with his fists clenched.

The old Nelson replaced Chamberlain, West, and Iverson in the second half, and sent a bunch of substitutes to play, but the Rockets didn't know what was going on, it was a no-score, and in the last quarter, the Warriors had no defense at all, and the Rockets fans were bored and sad to leave the game early, and the whole game was nothing to watch.

After Yao Mai, Brooks, the core of the Rockets' new rise, was abnormal, contributing 10 points on only 3-of-16 shooting, and was humiliated by Curry's two big hats in the game, and Chamberlain was embarrassed to do it.

Scola had 12 points and seven rebounds, Hayes had four points and 12 rebounds, and Badinger had 10 points and 12 rebounds.

The Warriors scored six double-doubles, West contributed 17 points, 7 assists, 4 rebounds, and 5 steals, Chamberlain had 14 points and 14 rebounds, and Curry had 18 points, 8 assists, and 4 blocks! Iverson also had 15 points on his account, with Tony Blair scoring a record 30 points.

The final result was that the Warriors slaughtered the Rockets 109-72, in fact, the Warriors really didn't want to play such a heavy hand, but you Rockets can't score, our Warriors have to score.
