NBA: The start beat Kobe Bryant in his old age

Chapter 171 The final moment of the All-Star Game!
Lin Tian knew the result of the slam dunk contest in advance, so he was not surprised.

The other players on the scene were extremely shocked, and many star players expressed their pity for this.

Many people even think that there are two slam dunk contest champions today.

Of course, the final result cannot be changed, and Zach Laven won the slam dunk contest championship trophy.

The slam dunk contest is over, and today's competitions have come to an end.

After Lin Tian and Kobe returned to the hotel, they went to bed early that day.

Early the next morning, the players came to the arena after breakfast.

Today is the most critical main game of the All-Stars, and it is also the game that attracts the most attention. It can be called a gathering of stars.

When the players came out one by one in the player channel, the commentators had to talk about a lot of player titles.

Among them, Kobe, who played in the finale, enjoyed the most enthusiastic cheers, and countless reporters pointed their cameras at him.

Tonight can be said to be Kobe's home court. He is like Jordan who participated in the All-Star Game in 2003.

After the players have warmed up, the All-Star Game will begin.

The Eastern Conference starters for this All-Star Game are: Kyle Lowry, Dwyane Wade, LeBron James, Paul George and Carmelo Anthony.

The starters in the Western Conference are: Stephen Curry, Kobe Bryant, Lin Tian, ​​Kevin Durant and Kawhi Leonard.

Since the All-Star starter canceled the center spot, the starters have all three frontcourts.

At the beginning of the game, the players on both sides basically threw three-pointers to each other.

Whoever gets the ball will play singles.

As for the defense, it is basically useless.

The previous All-Star games were meant to be fun, and few players would take it seriously, at least in the first three quarters.

When Kobe was holding the ball, James took the initiative to ask for a single defense against Kobe.

Facing Kobe, James patted the floor with both hands showing an excited expression, motioning for Kobe to attack.

Kobe naturally didn't hesitate. After making a change of direction and shaking James a little, he ended the attack with a mid-range shot!

This arc is a perfect mid-range shot!Most of the audience stood up and applauded.

Kobe's mid-range shot also became the most serious offensive and defensive confrontation between the two sides in the first quarter.

Lin Tian is not interested in shooting three-pointers. In his opinion, shooting three-pointers makes the game not very good.

Therefore, once he gets the ball, the offensive method he chooses is often to rush into the inside and directly dunk.

After the first half, the West led the East by 10 points, and Lin Tian scored 30 points alone.

In the second half, he changed sides and fought again. Lin Tian was also very aggressive, choosing to attack when he got the ball.

At this time, the defensive intensity has been improved, and the players on both sides no longer throw three-pointers indiscriminately, but start to play every ball seriously.

In the east, James is basically organizing, and the ball in the west is handed over to Lin Tian.

Lin Tian also experienced the feeling of being double-teamed by James and Paul George for the first time.

The two defended seriously, and Lin Tian could hardly break into the inside line.

He didn't force a breakthrough, but started to move the ball.

Every time Lin Tian passed the ball to Curry, Curry raised his hand and shot, with a very high percentage of three-pointers.

Today's Paul George has also scored six three-pointers as if he had been helped by God.

As for Kobe, his hand feeling is very average today, and he missed the first few shots.

The two sides fought more and more intensely, until the last tens of seconds of the fourth quarter, the suspense was maintained.

The score at this time was exactly 150:150, and the ball was in the West.

After Curry dribbled the ball through half court, Wade greeted him.

Facing Wade's oppressive defense, Curry didn't stick the ball, and was quickly given to Lin Tian by the ball.

Lin Tian looked up at the timer, and when there were 8 seconds left on the offensive clock, he made a mid-range shot against Paul George.

The score was rewritten to 152:150!There are 30 seconds left on the clock.

The Eastern team quickly called a timeout.

Lin Tian and the others also returned to the bench, and their head coach is Cole.

Cole arranged the team lineup for the last 30 seconds, Lin Tian, ​​Kobe, Curry, Durant and Leonard.

This lineup is actually their starting lineup, both offensively and defensively, they are extremely threatening.

When they returned to the court again, the Eastern team slightly adjusted the final lineup, mainly replacing it with a defensive lineup.

The East serves and the basketball is in James' hands.

There are only 30 seconds left, which makes it impossible for him to play a fast break. He can only kill time and try to delay the time until the last second.

All the audience held their breath, quietly waiting for the passage of time.

The rapper Drake on the sidelines had stood up, and he yelled: "LeBron! Come on! Beat the West!"

Wait until there are 7 seconds left on the shot clock.James suddenly waved to Paul George.

Paul George understood instantly, and he quickly ran to play a pick-and-roll for James.

The western side had to switch defenses, and Lin Tian came to defend James.

James held the ball with one hand, and his huge shoulder bumped towards Lin Tian abruptly.

Because his speed was too fast and the weight gap was too large, Lin Tian's body was pushed to the inside.

Lin Tian gritted his teeth and tried his best to suppress his lower body, barely able to make James feel less comfortable!

But James' body flexibility is beyond Lin Tian's imagination.

When he rushed to the vicinity of the penalty area, he suddenly stopped and shot a fadeaway jumper that was not very handsome.

Lin Tian reacted, he tried his best to jump to block the ball!
Everyone was amazed by Lin Tian's bounce!All of them stared wide-eyed at this miraculous scene.

The basketball almost brushed Lin Tian's fingertips and flew towards the basket. Finally, under everyone's gaze, it circled around the basket and fell into the net.

The dj at the scene roared excitedly: "It's tied! 152 tied! James made a deadly fadeaway! There are still 7 seconds to attack in the West!"

When the player was about to serve, Cole quickly used up the last timeout.

Holding the tactical board, he frowned and began to arrange the tactics for the final attack.

All the audience at the scene also stood up at this time, and their faces couldn't hide their excitement:
"Haha! It's been a long time since I saw such an exciting All-Star game!"

"The last All-Star game was so intense, it seems that Iverson hasn't retired yet."

"If the last shot in the West doesn't go in, there will be overtime to watch! That's even better!"

"If the West wins, the MVP should be Lin! If the East wins, the MVP is Paul George!"

The timeout ended quickly and the players returned to the field.

For the West, the good news is that they can then serve on the edge of the middle circle, saving them halftime.

The person responsible for sending the ball is Curry.
