NBA: Since James left the Cavaliers

The game is about to start.

O'Neal starters: Ricky Rubio, Long Rui, Markieff Morris, Blake Griffin, Tristan Thompson

Barkley's starters: Kyrie Irving, Paul George, Kawhi Leonard, Derrick Williams, DeMarcus Cousins

From the comparison of the lineups of the two sides, the O'Neal team seems to have an advantage, after all, they have the big killer of Long Rui.

In addition to Long Rui, there are star players like Griffin.

Although the All-Star rookie game is not as popular as the main game, this year's rookie game still has some things to watch.

The biggest highlight is the matchup between Long Rui and Paul George.

The two are now playing together for the Cavaliers, and Paul George has always been the team's sixth man.

When Long Rui is not on the court, he will play the role of Long Rui and lead the team. It is not an exaggeration to say that he is the second leader of the team.

Although the nominal second core is Curry, what he does on the court or the responsibilities he bears are actually heavier than Curry.

"Dudu!"

With the whistle of the referee, the game officially began.

The two sides stand in their respective positions and perform a jump ball in the middle circle.

The referee threw the ball, Thompson and Cousins ​​took off at the same time, and the O'Neal team won the first wave of offensive balls.

When Rubio got the ball, he immediately thought of passing it to Long Rui. After all, Long Rui is an MVP-level player and is now the absolute core on the court.

To this, Long Rui refused, and then ran towards the bottom corner on his own.

He didn't want to put in too much effort, just a casual gesture was enough. He knew that there were many people on the court who needed more opportunities to perform, and he was also very willing to be an adult.

In the first offense after the opening, Rubio organized on the outside. This European player known as the "Golden Boy" has achieved high achievements before entering the NBA.

But after entering the NBA, he did not achieve the expected results, and he is obviously not familiar with the environment here.

Rubio's advantage lies in his organizational ability, often able to send out many wonderful assists.

At this moment, he is constantly signaling his teammates to move.

Griffin came up and set a screen for him, and Rubio took the opportunity to drive.

After finishing the screen, Griffin chose to go down quickly. He stretched out his finger and pointed upward. Rubio immediately understood and threw the ball towards the basket.

'White Warcraft' Griffin's explosive physical fitness was immediately revealed.

I saw him jump, and when he jumped to the highest point, the entire top of his head was over the basket!
"BOOM!"

In the next breath, there was a huge sound of exploding frames, and the dunk was successful!
Griffin only used this shot to ignite the atmosphere in an instant. The dunk is really the best way to mobilize the atmosphere!

"OMG!"

"His dunk is so explosive, this is a model of violent aesthetics!"

"Charles, do you see, this is the strength of our team, you can't do it!"

'Big Shark' O'Neill was amazed, but he did not forget to challenge 'Flying Pig' Barkley.

"Shut up, you idiot!"

"The outcome of the game is not based on one round, but on the final result. You are just waiting to be blown!"

"Do you dare to gamble with me?"

Barkley suddenly changed the subject.

"Just gamble, am I still afraid that you won't succeed?"

"Tell me, what are you betting on?"

O'Neill asked.

"Whoever loses will kiss the pig's ass!"

Barkley said without hesitation, obviously he had premeditated.

But as soon as this remark came out, O'Neill immediately laughed: "Haha! No problem!"

"But before that, tell me what it's like to kiss a donkey's ass!"

Buckley is no stranger to kissing the ass of animals, after all he once kissed a donkey's butt because of 'Da Yao'!
But this time, he gambled harder and wanted to kiss the pig's butt!

O'Neill's words made him angry, and he immediately scolded: "Don't be too arrogant, I will let you taste the taste of pig's butt!"

On the court, the opening stage of the game was very anxious.

After Griffin received the dunk in the air, Irving on the opposite side immediately showed off his fancy dribble, and successfully scored the ball with a difficult pull bar.

In the next few rounds, both sides almost only focused on offense but not defense, and all kinds of operations were spectacular. These first and second-year players have already won the essentials of the All-Star Game.

This kind of game makes the fans very enjoyable to watch. Even if the starlight is not good enough, as long as it can be shown, it is still very enjoyable.

Paul George has been trying to match up with Long Rui, and his thoughts can't escape Long Rui's eyes.

Every time George got the ball, Long Rui would deliberately avoid him, just to whet George's appetite.

In this regard, Paul George is very helpless.

Throughout the first half of the first quarter, Long Rui didn't take a single shot, and didn't even touch the ball much.

The game is about to enter the stage of personnel replacement, and the O'Neal team is executing the offense.

At this moment, all the fans stood up and shouted Long Rui's name. They wanted to see Long Rui attack once before he left the court.

Under the voices of the fans in the audience, Long Rui couldn't be more humble. After all, not attacking once is really unreasonable.

Rubio also handed the ball to Long Rui tactfully, and signaled his teammates to pull away.

Paul George finally got a one-on-one chance with Long Rui, but he became a defender.

"You can't escape this time!"

George said excitedly

"You should know me, as long as I want to score goals, no one can stop me!"

Long Rui said calmly.

In fact, in the usual training, the two had singled out several times in private, and the result was that Long Rui won the victory.

But even though George failed again and again, he still wanted to challenge Long Rui constantly.

"Then you try, this time, I will definitely be able to prevent you!"

As soon as the words fell, George opened his arms, his center of gravity sank, and his eyes locked on Long Rui tightly, watching his every move.

He knows all of Long Rui's offenses well, so Paul George is also very determined. As long as he devotes himself to defense, he has a chance to guard Long Rui.

Facing George's defense, Long Rui launched an attack without hesitation.

Outside the three-point line, Long Rui continued to shake his crotch, but George blocked his several tentative breakthroughs.

There was not much time left for the attack. Long Rui looked up, and he just kept going without doing anything. He just pulled up and shot, and he didn't even bother to take a step back.

After all, this is an exhibition game, and it doesn't matter if you score goals.

No one expected that Long Rui would throw the ball so hastily.

Paul George hurriedly jumped up to block the shot, but he was still a step too late. What's more, this random shot fell into the basket hollow!
