After the game officially started, Duncan didn't jump seriously, but Tyson Chandler was extremely excited to jump and help the Eastern Conference All-Stars win the ball.

After Dune received the ball, he immediately passed the ball to James, which made James a little surprised.

"Doon, don't you control the ball?"

James asked curiously, and at this time James knew very well in his heart that Doon's group of people did not deal with him very well.

"LeBron, if you don't want the ball, give it to Dwyane, he likes to attack with the ball.

As for me, this season, I'm used to not working until the fourth quarter.

But I think everybody is so strong, I shouldn't have to play in the fourth quarter tonight to win the game.

Haha, I just want to leave work early, please. ”

Dunn said this, and Wade and the others naturally believed it.

The Bulls are the defending champions, still the top two teams in the East, and the depth of the roster is terrifying.

The stars on the court have more or less studied the Bulls this season and regard the Bulls as an imaginary enemy to win the championship, so they know the Bulls very well.

Although Doon's points per game average data has decreased this season, it is not because Doon's personal ability has declined, but mainly because of the reduction in the number of shots.

The Bulls had a number of three-quarter games last season, but Doon averaged 19.2 shots per game.

This season, the Bulls have played more anxiously, often in the fourth quarter, but Doon, as the big man, only took 16.8 shots.

As the leader of the team, he is willing to sacrifice the ball and give other teammates more opportunities to display their talents, and there is only one purpose, that is, the championship.

Just like after Durant joined the Warriors, it was not the second-in-command Thompson who gave up the ball, but the big man Curry.

Curry's shooting power dropped from 20.2 per game in '16 to 16.9 per game in '18.

And the result of reducing the right to shoot is that the second consecutive MVP is reduced to a three-team player.

However, it was two highly questioned boss championships.

Now Doon is sacrificing the ball, the shot, and other personal accolades.

Anyone who knows the ball knows that Doon is bound to win the championship!

Therefore, even if Doon has the ability to win the All-Star MVP tonight, in order to preserve his strength and stay healthy in the next regular season, Doon will most likely only play healthy basketball and will not make too much effort.

Most of the others were able to guess what Doon was thinking and what he was going to do next, so they ruled out Doon's threat to them in their quest for All-Star MVP.

For players who don't have regular season MVPs and FMVPs, All-Star MVPs are the stars of stars.

Coincidentally, there are many players who do not have this honor on the scene.

It is also because there is no real hard goods honor in hand, and the Eastern All-Star team has played extraordinarily hard, energetic and aggressive from the beginning of the game.

The veterans of the Western All-Stars were also a little stunned by the Eastern All-Stars' aggressive conversion offense.

The game played half a quarter, and the difference was stretched to seven or eight points.

It is worth mentioning that Doon was inexplicably reduced to a pick-up and a serve, and then accidentally relied on a long pass to get 3 assists.

By the time the first official timeout arrived, Doon's stats had come to 2-of-2 shooting, 4 points, 1 rebound and 3 assists.

Originally, Doon really didn't have any ideas about the All-Star MVP, after all, he had already won one.

But seeing James next to him looking for someone to take the data board and check the data, Doon subconsciously glanced at it, and suddenly felt a little moved.

If you pick up an All-Star MVP while playing healthy basketball, Doon is still happy to do so.

Don't be in vain!

Although if you win the All-Star MVP this time, there is a high probability that there is no All-Star MVP template to win.

But the All-Star MVP is also a good honor, and there is also a decent trophy.

Of course, Doon didn't force it, and Doon didn't particularly want the All-Star MVP.

If Doon really wants to, he can immediately link up with Byron Davis and Tyson Chandler and let the two teammates contribute.

In addition, it is not impossible to ask Wade, Anthony, and Bosh to help.

Now Doon's situation is like a scumbag, who doesn't take the initiative or refuse.

If you really have a chance, then go forward and give it a try.

If it does, it's not a bad thing.

The clock quickly hit the second quarter, and because Wade didn't want to play either, the Eastern Conference All-Star backup guards were given more playing time.

It just so happened that Doon was playing on the court with Byron Davis.

Doon knew that Byron Davis wanted to perform well in the All-Star Game, so he gave Byron the ball to help Byron Davis score, and Doon just wanted assist stats that others didn't want.

In addition, relying on the excellent rebounding prediction and rebounding ability brought by Barkley's template, Doon also made a little effort and grabbed more rebounds.

By the time the second quarter was played, Doon's stats had risen to 6 points, 5 rebounds and 7 assists.

At first glance, it doesn't seem like a surprise, but for the more difficult rebounds and assists to get in the All-Star Game, Doon has already laid the groundwork for the harder to get a triple-double.

And with Doon's individual ability, the scoring aspect is the least problematic.

"Bro, when did you grab so many rebounds?"

In the third quarter, Anthony, who was secretly competing with James and wanted the All-Star MVP, also noticed that Doon's data was a little wrong.

"Thanks to Kobe, I know him so well! Shaq should be able to understand why I'm rebounding so much. ”

Doon quipped, and O'Neal on the side immediately burst out laughing.

"If Shaq plays at the same time as Kobe, Shaq can have at least ten more rebounds!"

Hearing O'Neal's amusement, the other stars of the Eastern All-Star team didn't feel anything wrong with Doon having a few more rebounds.

As for Doon's assist statistics, there are also a lot of statistics, isn't this what Doon got by passing the ball to other players?

No one thinks Doon is deliberately playing assists, everyone just thinks why Doon didn't pass the ball to him, but to someone else.

Time is in the fourth quarter in a blink of an eye, and the main drama of the All-Star Game is finally about to be staged.

In the East, Wade and Tyson Chandler were dropped and replaced by Arenas and Howard, while the others continued to start the first quarter.

The Western Conference All-Stars replaced Maddy, Garnett and Duncan, Parker, Josh Smith and Smalls, and Kobe Bryant and Nowitzki were also retained.

At this point, the margin on the court was 102-98, and the Eastern Conference All-Stars led by four points.

However, the Western All-Stars relied on the strong offense of Kobe and Nowitzki to quickly overtake the score.

Arenas didn't want to compete for the All-Star MVP, but just wanted to come up and perform, so he continued to play in the fourth quarter.

Not wanting to lose, Arenas dribbled past half court and gave the ball to Doon.

Seeing this, James wanted to say something, but he had to approve of Arenas's approach.

As a team player, James knew it was right to pass the ball to Doon.

Doon didn't disappoint the rest of the Eastern Conference All-Stars either, hitting two low-post singles in a row to help the Eastern Conference All-Stars stabilize the situation.

It was Doon who stepped up and the score remained around 3 points until the last 1 minute.

"Lore, quasi-lore from Kobe!"

At the critical moment, Kobe Bryant still stood up.

However, with 0.3 seconds left in the end, Doon also came along.

"Lore!"

"Peak Showdown!"

"It's in again!" (End of chapter)
